Religious Leaders Divided On Visit United Press International Religious leaders were divided today over Nikita Khrushchev's forthcoming visit to the United States. Some were outspokenly critical of the decision to entertain the world's No. 1 Communist in America. a United Press International survey showed while others voiced cautious optimism that the move would further the cause of world peace. The majority of utterances so far appeared to frown on the Khrushchev visit, the UPI check showed, but it also indicated there is no unanimity of opinion even within specific church groups on the controversial issue. The Michigan Catholic, a Roman Catholic publication, recognized the disagreement in church ranks when it said the Khrushchev visit would bring i “hate to the hearts of many and hope to the hearts of some.” The paper advised Catholics to “accept his visit, don’t insult him by insults, don’t turn your back should you encounter him ... treat him as one who is seeing and is not seen, speaking and is not heard. . . . “In the words of Christ,” the Michigan Catholic said, “ ‘Be as wise as serpents and as simple as doves.’ ” “Unfit to Come” The Rev. Kenneth Carroll, president of the lowa Fellowship of the American Council of Christian Churches, called Khrushchev a “bloody butcher,” said his trip is “letting down bars of socialism I and eventually communism,” and called upon Gov. Herschel C. Loveless to protest further the Soviet leader's visit. “We cannot be courteous to the devil’s cohorts, even if guests of President Eisenhower,” said Carroll, pastor of the Tipton (Iowa) Bible Church. Msgr. John M. Kelly, editor of the New World, official newspaper of the Roman Catholic archdiocese of Chicago, said in an editorial that Khrushchev "is unfit to come into this land.” “If he does,” Msgr. Kelly wrote, “perhaps we should release from prison our public enemies from 1 to 10 to form a greeting party rather than have the highest officials in our land preparing to make a fuss over this man.” \ Richard Cardinal Cushing of Boston has voiced opposition to the visit and asked Catholics for nine days of prayer during the Soviet leader’s stay. James Francis Cardinal Mclntyre of Los Angeles called for prayers of peace on nine successive Sundays beginning Aug. 30 and noted the period coincides with the proposed exchange of visits between Khrushchev and Eisenhower. Critics are Criticized The chancery office of Catholic Archbishop John F. Dearden of Detroit issued a statement pointing out that Khrushchev "showed no appreciation of Polish religious I tradition” during his visit to Poland a few weeks ago.. “Under the circumstances, it seems an empty hope to believe that the religious spirit of this country Will interest him or have any influence on him,” the statement said. Critics of the Khrushchev visit were criticized, in turn, by an editorial in the current issue of the Lutheran, official weekly magazine of the United Lutheran Church. "It’s hard to understand the attitude of some Roman Catholic bishops and some fundamentalist fanatics who are trying to stir up opposition to Khrushchev's visit, the Rev. Dr. Albert P. Stauderman, associate editor, wrote. "Whether th’ey know it or not, they are doing a disservice to their country and are playing directly into the hands of the Reds. While the two sides (in the cold war) can talk to each other and discuss differences, there is hope. The only alternative is desperate conflict which, with modern weapons, could destroy civilization.’ Urge Day of Prayer The Evangelist, official newspaper for the Catholic diocese of Albany, N.Y., said in a front page editorial that “good may result” from the visit. It said architects of U.S. foreign policy have taken a firm stand with Russia on principles. “If the rigid position on matters of principle is maintained, the shaking of Khrushchev’s hand may not be as it appears,” the paper said. “For every day that war is averted, the cause for peace and freedom gained vigor and the hope for captive peoples is further advanced.” An informal group of conservative Protestant clergymen, including evangelist Billy Graham, is promoting an inter-denominational “Day of Prayer” to coincide with the Soviet leader's scheduled arrival in the U.S. Sept. 15. The group is urging clergymen along Khrushchev's route in this country to hold special church services in each city he visits on the day he arrives there. G. Weir Hartman, executive Hthe Columbus Council s, sent a telegram to, asking for A period of m Khrushchev arrives r High Fellowship of i Street Presbyterian (bile.

AMBITIOUS PLANT— The above plant, a night-blooming cereus plant that is supposed to bloom once a year, bloomed last Saturday for the third time this summer. Mrs. John W. Blakey, owner of the plant, has said she has never heard of these plants blooming oftener than once a year, and adds, “I would like to. hear from others who may have had the same experience.” The cereus plant, which Mrs. Blakey has owned for 15 years, brought out eight blossoms, a high number for such a plant, first on July 16. The blossoms come from the ends of the leaves, which are similar in shape to the devils’ tongue cactus leaves. The second time the plant bloomed was Aug. 17, and the third time, Saturday, August 29.
Studebaker, Union 1 Agree On New Pad SOUTH BEND, Ind. (UPD— Studebaker-Packard Corp, and 1 Local 5 of the United Auto Workers Union reached agreement 1 Wednesday on a new two-year i contract. Both the company and the union 1 refused to reveal details of the agreement pending ratification by the union membership. But it was learned that it would put the com- 1 pany in line with agreements reached between other auto com- 1 panies and the UAW last fall. The new agreement covers ' wages, pension benefits, insur- * ance, night shift premiums and ‘ related matters. The company and the union be- * gan talks last July under terms 1 of a contract it signed last fall. ’ The original pact called for an- < nual reopening of talks on wages and related matters. The UAW originally settled for 1 less from Studebaker-Packard ' than from the other companies ' because of the company’s eco- ' nomic position at that time. The original contract called for a seven-cent hourly pay increase across the board and an additional nine cents for certin skilled employes. The company, however, was permitted to pay for these increases out of payments which normally would have gone into the workers’ supplemental unemployment benefits fund. Under terms of the contract,' S-P resumed payment of two cents an hour into the SUB fund after it produced and sold 60,000 cars earlier this year. Then, when the company’s sales reached 90,000 it began contributing five cents an hour for each’ employe into the SUB fund. it that the Communist leadervisits an American church. “This may be our one opportunity to expose Khrushchev’s mind to the gospel,” the group said.

Truman, Jack Benny Rehearse TV Show INDEPENDENCE, Mo. (UPD— This town’s most famous citizen and Waukegan’s most famous native — both exactly 39 years old. —got together to relfearse a television show in the Truman Library here, and the onlookers were kept'howling by the offstagd ad libs. The funny stuff was not provided by the comedian. Jack Benny. It was dished up by the politician, Harry S. Truman, an old hand at off-the-cuff 'droller. He is to be guest on a Benny Sunday night show on CBS-TV in midOctober. The show itself is designed to be instructive about the purpose of the Harry S. Truman Library —a sort of museum devoted to help people learn about the meaning of the presidency. “We want to keep it dignified,” Benny remarked. “And we are,” said Truman. Knows An Undertaker “I’ll kill myself if it isn’t,” said Benny. “All right,” Truman said, wagging a finger, “I’ve got an undertaker friend.” Visitors to the library— there are around 600 a day during summer months — were startled to see the two great men walking through their parts, scripts in hand. “Most of the visitors,” Truman confided, “come herte to see if the animal is still alive — but I fool ’em. I stay in my office most of the time. Actually, Benny, who onstage plays a perpetual 39 years old, is 65. Truman is 75. One lady visitor remarked aloud that Truman looked younger than Benny. To Tape Program Chuckling. Truman said: “He’s 81 and I’m 80.” When rehearsals finish, the program will be put on tape, a process that will make the former President an actor, which means he’ll have to be paid scale—slss for the performance. He has specified that whatever additional amount Benny wants to pay must go to charity- Benny said he thought he could dig up a few dollars more, maybe 15 or 20. Truman explained that at Benny’s suggestion, he and Benny appeared in a benefit concert with the Kansas City Philharmonic 18 months ago “which pulled the orchestra out of debt” and .that he was grateful. , t Bowling Scores Major Leagee W.
