Pope Pius Observes 18th Anniversary Estimate 20,000 Attend Ceremony VATICAN CITY (IPI — Thousands of pilgrims from all over the world gave Pope Pius XII a warm ovation today as he was carried in solemn procession to St. Peter’s Basilica for a solemn high mass celebrating the 18th anniversary of his coronation. An estimated 20,000 persons jammed the world’s largest church for the colorful ceremony. Among them were 18 cardinals, 50 bishops, diplomats from 44 nations accredited to the Vatican, and Irish President Sean O’Kelly and Spanish Foreign Minister Fernando Maria Cauelia. After the ceremony, the Pope appeared at his study window for 20 seconds to acknowledge the cheers of a crowd in St. Peter’s Square. The traditional purple cloth of mourning during Lent was dis-, carded for the Pope's most important personal anniversary of the year. His 81st birthday and the 18th anniversary of his election as head of the world’s 430 million Catholics passed without ceremony March 2. The cardinals wore their scarlet robes today and the Pope himself donned white and gold robes and wore a crown of silvercloth. Today’s rites were the first of the year to be carried out in St. Peter’s Basilica with the full splendor of papal ceremony. Normally the pontifical chapter is held in the smaller Sistine Chapel, but in view of the large number of pilgrims expected it was switched to the huge basilica of the world's biggest church.

Industry Division Hears Dr. Krider Central Soya Officer Speaks Here Monday Describing the value and the development of gqpd public relations, Dr. J. L. Krider, director of public relations for Central Soya company, spoke before the members of the industrial division of the Decatur Chamber of Commerce at a noon meeting Monday at the Decatur Youth and Community Center. Dr. Krider defined good public relations as “tile manufacture and development of earned public recognition.” He emphasized that the good wiU between a company and the public is generated by the individual men and women who make up the community. The key to good public relations, he said, is in being a good citizen. He 'pointed out the necessity of individuals from the company taking active part in all community projects. He added that good relations is a two-way street. It entails not only, what the company can do for the community but also what the community can do for the company: Getting into the subject of the attraction of new industry which is of special interest to Decatur he outlined the points that a company will check before moving into a community. He pointed out that all companies are interested in being a part of a progressive community and are therefore in favor of industrial expansion. At the same time, he added, the new company coming in to a community will be careful to check existing relations between the community and the companies already located there. Among the things a company seeks in a new community, according to Dr. Krider, are the number and skill of available labor; transportation facilities; the power supply; the fuel and water resources and sewage disposal situations; availability of housing and plant sites, and educational recreational, religious and cultural facilities. He emphasized that the company will also check the business climate. A company wants to locate where it can depend on the cooperation, understanding and favorable attitudes of the community leaders. He concluded by stating his be> lief that “Decatur is a good town,” calling it a good community in which to build' a business. However, he warned, each individual must continue "to progress of good company-com-munity relations in order to bring in additional progressive industry.

Guerras Express Appreciation For Gifts To Family Jose Guerra,'whose family was left almost destitute in a recent fir#, issued a statement today expressing his gratitude for the help given to him by generous Decatur residents. According to a report by Mrs. Wanda Oelberg, executive secretary of the local Red Cross which sponsored the drive* for food, clothing and furniture to aid the family, stated that the Guerras now have enough of the essentials to fulfill their needs until Guerra’s income will be adequate to care for them. She stated that the Red Cross has located everything but a house and that she is still working to find a house for them. At present they are staying with the Adam Equia family in a badly overcrowded Hbuse. The Guerras lost all of their possessions in the fire which gutted their small home. Adding to the seriousness of their situation was the fact that Guerra had just gone to work for the first time this winter and Mrs. Guerra was a short time from, giving- birth to her sixth child. Their situation has been alleviated by the gifts from local residents.
