THEcommunistpresidentoftheRed-dominatedElectricalTradesUnionin BritainhasadmittedpubliclythatCatholicActionhelpeddiscredithisunion andpreparethewayforitsexpulsionfromtheTradesUnionCongress,the centralcouncilofBritain'sorganisedlabour.

HeisFrankFoulkes,andthe admissioncameinaspeechhemade attemptingtostaveoffexpulsionat theT.U.C.'sannualmeetingatPortsmouth.ButtheT.U.C.votedoverwhelminglytoousttheElectrical TradesUnionforballot-riggingand communistcontrol.

Theelectricalunion's240,000members holdkeyjobsinBritishindustry,Itisthe seventh-largestunioninBritain.

Foulkestriedtoarousethewrathofhis audienceagainstthosehesaidweretrying tosplitthetradeunionmovement.

"Overthepastfouryearstherehasbeen aunitedeffortbyoneparticulargroupcontainingelementsfromCatholicAction,Tories (therulingConservativePartyinParliament),ex-communistsandotherdissidents withtheobjectofcreatingtheprecise positioninwhichwefindourselvestoday," hedeclared.

HesingledoutspecificallytheCatholic Herald,anationalweeklywhichhascampaignedagainstCatholiclethargygenerally intradeunionaffairs,asoneofthe"enemies" oftheElectricalTradesUnion.

ButFoulkesmadenoadequateanswerto thechargesmadeina45-minutespeechby theT.U.C.'sgeneralsecretary,GeorgeWoodcock.Thedelegatesdecidedbyten-to-one (7,320,000card-votesto735,000)tosendthe E.T.U.out"intothewilderness."Thismeans itwillnotberecognisedbytheothertrade unions,whosememberswillnotofficially supportitinanyindustrialaction.Italso meansthattheoustedunionwillprobablybe disaffiliatedfromtheLabourParty,the officialoppositioninParliament.Itwillno longerbeabletotakepartinBritishor internationaltradeunionaffairs.

SmallGroupHoldsPower

Thedecision,oneofthemostpivotalinthe historyofBritishtradeunionism,follows someyearsofbitterpublicandprivatecontroversy.Throughtheindifferenceofmost ofitsmembers,asmallgroupofardent communistshadbeenabletogaincomplete controloftheunion'sexecutiveboard.

AloneCatholic,JohnByrne,backedby theCatholicPressandparticularlythe CatholicHerald,foughtastubbornbattle againstthem.Lastyearhewasabletostand ascandidateforgeneralsecretaryofthe union.HewasdeclareddefeatedbyFrank Haxell,seniormemberoftheBritishCommunistParty.

Byrne,astockyworkerfromGlasgow,took thecasetotheEnglishHighCourtinJuly, andafteracostly,33-dayaction,heproved thattheElectricalTradesUnionwascontrolledbyatinycommunistcliqueforcommunisticpurposes.Thecourtruledthat communistofficialsriggedtheelectionfor thepostofgeneralsecretary.

ThecourtruledthatHaxellandfourother communistmembersofthe,unionwereguilty ofconspiracy,andthatByrnewasinfact electedandshouldimmediatelytakeoffice.

Judgmentwasgiven thattheunionwascontrolledbytheCommunist Partyasatoolofcommunism,thatitscommunist leadersreceivedoutside directionsfromtheCommunistPartyandthatthe communistsselectedthe candidatesforelectionto unionoffices.

Laterthegeneralcouncil oftheTradesUnionCongressorderedtheElectrical TradesUniontoobeya three-pointultimatumwhich calledfortheresignationof Foulkes,thebarringfrom officeoffivele^dingcorn-

FIVEFilipinojournalists,backfroma23-dayvisittotheSoviet Union,broughtwordthatMoscowiskeenlyanxioustohave diplomaticrelationswiththePhilippines.

R.:Thatismisrepresentation.Inalettertothe "Herald,"onJune30,an Anglicanclergyman,the Rev.J.R.Bunyan,ofCanberra.pontedoutthatthe AnglicanSynods,consistingofbothclergyand laity,inMelbourne,Bathurst,Brisbane,Rockhampton,NorthQueenslandandCarpentaria, claimedthattheeducation ofchildrenintheirAnglicanschoolsshouldbea chargeonpublicrevenue justasthatofchildrenin anyotherschools.

Q.:Why,instead,doyounot say"RomanCatholic?"

R.:Firstly,becausea spokesmanonbehalfofthe CatholicChurchnaturally speaksofitinthewayin whichitdescribesitself. Youcanscarcelyexpectme toletProtestantsputonmy lipsthewayinwhichthey wantmetospeakofit.As theAnglicanBishopFrere admits,inthe"Dictionaryof EnglishChurchHistory,"the expression"RomanCatholic"wasinventedbythe Protestantsduringthereign ofElizabethIintheIfith century.Secondly,theVaticanCouncilin1870,when discussingthismatter,expresslyrejectedthetitle "RomanCatholic"asapplicabletotheCatholicChurch. Thirdly,theexpressionis philologicallyabsurd.The word"Catholic"means

WomenMustTakePartIn SocialAndCivilLife

cOHEHOLYFATHERtold thousandsofpilgrims thatequalityofrights ofmenandwomendoesnot meanthatbothsexesshould haveequalfunctions.

ThePontiff,athisregularweekly audienceathissummervillaatCastelgandolfo,addressedhiswordsespeciallytoagroupofpersonsparticipating inastudycourseontheplaceofwomen intheprofessionalworld.Thecourse wassponsoredbytheCatholicUniversityoftheSacredHeartinMilan.

PopeJohnstatedthat"thedynamic rhythmoftechnicalandsocialevolution ofthepastfiftyyearshashadtheeffect oftakingwomanoutsidethehome placingherindirectcontactwithpublic life."

Hewentontomakethreepointsconcerningthisphenomenon.Thefirstwas thatawoman'sprofession"maynot prescindfromtheincontestablecharacteristicswithwhichtheCreatorhas stampedher."

Enlargingonthispoint,thePope said:"TheCreatorhasgivenwomen gifts,inclinationsandnaturaldispositionswhicharespecificallytheirsand aredifferentfromthosegivenmen."

Hesaidthattofailtodistinguishthis "diversitybetweentherespective functionsofmenandwomen,aswellas theirnecessarycomplementariness, wouldbetogoagainstnatureand wouldresultindebasingwomanand destroyingthetruefoundationofher dignity."

ANASIANSTATESMANwhohelpedtodrafttheCharterofthe UnitedNationsdeclaredinManilathattheChinesecommunist regimefailstomeettheCharter'sthreeessentialconditionsforU.N. membership.

GeneralCarlosP. Romulo,nowPhilippine AmbassadortotheUnited States,washeadofthe Philippinedelegationto the1945SanFrancisco conferenceatwhichthe U.N.Charterwasadopted.

Theassembleddelegations unanimouslyadoptedthe membershipcommittee's decisionthatonlygovernmentswhicharepeacelovingandableandwilling tofulfiltheobligationsset forthintheChartershould ba.admitted.

Everydelegationhada representativeonthecommittee.

"Irememberthatfor threedaysthecommittee arguedwhethertheUnited Nationsshouldbeopentoall defactogovernmentsor onlytothosethatmeetcertainrequirements,"ambassadorRomulotoldcorrespondentsinManila.

"Thedecisionreachedwas thatthereshouldbethree qualifications.Agovernment mustbepeace-lovingandit mustbebothableandwillingtodischargetheobligationsoftheCharter."

TheAmbassador,whowas electedPresidentofthe GeneraloftheUnited Nationsfor1949-50,showed howthecommunistgovernmentinChinaisineligible underthesethreeheadings.

"Itcertainlycannotbe calledpeace-loving,"he said."IthasbeencondemnedbytheUnitedNations OrganisationitselfforaggressioninKorea.Notonly hasitfailedtopurgeitself ofthiscrime,butithas subsequently committeed genocideinTibetandviolatedtheborderofIndia.

"Willing?RedChinahas neverofficiallyappliedfor admissiontotheUnited Nations.

"TheexperienceofGreat Britainisenlightening.It wasoneofthefirsttorecogniseRedChina.Yettothis dayRedChinahasnever recognisedorreceiveda Brifishambassador."
