Such a bill was before parliament one, tut was ahelvrd temporarily. Catholic sources, meanwhile, re ported that Archbishop Josef Be ran of Prague was now completely Iso lated from his followers. They said It was doubtful If the 60-yrar-oll prelate could again smuggle a com munication, such as Sunday's pas toral letter denouncing the govern ment, from the ever-tightening po lice surveillance of his palace. Tht Vatican and other sources have Indicated they believe Arch bishop Beran. and Archbishop Jowl Motocha of Olomoue his second In command may be arrested at any moment. The report of Protestant aupport for the embattled Catholic faith has suurh more significance here than In most lands. This country produced a rellglout leader opposed to Rome a century before Martin Luther. He was John Huss who was condemned by the exuncil of Constance and burned as a heretic In HIS for his teaching. During the next 300 years Pro testantism grew strong in Ctecho slovakia until it was finally sup pressed after great bloodshed at tht battle of White Hill In 1620 by the Catholic emperor of Austria and the Roman Catholic nobility to whom he granted the seired lands of the Bohemian i Czechoslovak Protestants. For many years afterwards Pro testant religious activity was banned from Chechoslovakia, Quick Action Saves Lives Of Campers STOCKTON. Calif.. June 34 (sv A six-foot wall of water, rushlna down the Calaveras river at mid night last night barely missed drowning 25 or 30 campers In the normally dry stream bed. Almost certain disaster was avert ed by prompt action of the sheriff's office, which u warned In time and spread the word with scant minutes to space. It was a freakish accident which caused the hazardous situation. At Hogan dam. a few miles upstream, part of a huge wooden bulkhead had been removed from a "release hole" to allow a limited amount of water" to flow down to Stockton. Then, unexpectedly, the rest of tht bulkhead gave way and a huge torrent of water poured downstream. Harold Davis, living about five miles north of Stockton, saw the wall of water coming and phoned the sher iff's office. Deputies, without a moment's hesi tation, raced down the stream bed warning the campers to get out of danger. Some of them barely made It before the torrent rushed over their camp sites. Most of the camp ers were Itinerants. There were numerous children among them. Hogan dam Is a diversionary reservoir built In 1929 to control flood waters. The river below It Is used as a canal now to supply water to agricultural areas around Stock ton.

June 24 ( West Ber lin's rati strikers, rebutted by the Kusaian appointed railway manage ment In efforts It run an "emer gency service Into Berlin, urged a retaliatory Soviet soilt blockadt to day. The anti-communist union pre pared telegrams to be sent later In the day to the West German union headquarters at Frankfurt, asking all German unionists to refuse to handle freight destined for East Germany. The Berlin union styled Its action a retaliation. Earlier tht rail man agement bad turned down the un ion's olfer to work trims run on sn ; emergency basis. In Frankfurt, union headquarters declined comment on the suggested j Soviet sone boycott until the formal I request to received. ! The anti-communist strikers hsd , offered to clear the way toward re j storing tnteraonal frright move ments by trying to clear the dogged marshalling yards in the U. 8. and French sectors, where dotens of trains have lain Idle since the stop page was called five weeks ago. The Idea, presumably, was that clearing the yards would make it I possible for the Russians to allow j trains to come In from the western I semes of Germany. I The Idea waa reported It have the approval of the American military ' government. The British termed the Idea a lot of nonsense and forbade strikers to make any such move In ' tht British sector. , Later the British, while making It ! clear their policy against emergency ' service has not changed, relaxed j their Initial order. They said strikers would be per- muted to enter yards to repair ln I stallattons and clear yard lines. This. I said the British, was only allowed to prepare for operation provided the reichsbahn agrees to the emergency program. A French spokesman said their at titude was similar to tht British stand. 4-H Members Wind Up School CORVALLIS.
