ThePontiffstatedthatin suchactivities,Catholics shouldbe"illuminedby theirreasonandbyasustainedandjustfaithinProvidence."

FatherdeRochecauwas senttoIndo-Chinabythe SecoursCatholique(,French CatholicCharities)tostudy thecausesoftheChristians' flight,tocontactasmanyof themaspossible,andtodeterminemeansofhelping them.

TheFrenchprieststressedtheextraordinaryselfdenialofthoseChristians.

"Forthemostpart,"he said,"theyarepeasants whohaveonlyastrawhut, alittlericepaddy,oneor twobuffaloandaprimitive plow,buttheyareveryattachedtotheirlandandare afraidoftheunknown.

"TheVietminhknow this,"hecontinued,"andto stoptheexodusofpeople, theytrytopreventthevillagepriestsfromleaving. Theobservermissionsseem tohavegreatdifficultyin uncoveringthesecoercive measures.

"IntheDong-Hairegion, outofthe37,000persons thathavebeenevacuated, 25,000areChristians.Only 200Christianshaveexpressedadesiretoremain."
