An AP news analysis
DES MOINES, Iowa-Through some peculiar
magnetism, a rugged, down-to-earth Pope John Paul
II is making a hit with his preaching of strict morals
and farm faith in a heavily secularized America.
That message, not,particularly a hot topic in much
modern social discourse, is getting an extensive
hearing, not only first-hand for the enormous crowds
surrounding the pope but also via radio, television,
and the press for millions of others.
BUT IT IS the man with his heroic aura of standing
up for his convictions under the fire of Nazism and'
communism and his manliness coupled with unaffec-
ted warmth that draws the multitudes, not the fer-
vent belief and ethic of his message.
That message is being promulgated in a
remarkably broad way in a land that many analsysts,

including the president, say is sufferihg a slump in
moral values and spiritual fiber.
WHETHER THE road show of John Paul II, with
its steady urgent call to staunch faith and disciplined
conduct, will have much impact on American thought
and nores remains a question. But at least the word
is being circulated.
"He has gained the ear of the world as a leader in
an age that lacks for leadership, a man who people
feel that, 'Here's somebody who knows what ought to
be done,' " said the Rev. Francis A. Murphy, a noted
religious scholar from Washington, D.C.
Although there is a lot of hoopla and follow-the
crowd atmosphere about the pope's appearance, he
nevertheless speaks unswervingly the gospel of the
evangelist. Unlike most past popes, his sermons are
richly laden with biblical passages rather than exten-

vs crowds
sive documentation from previous papal statements.
When he does quote a papal encyclical, it is usually
from his own, "The Redeemer of Humanity," issued
last spring and his only one so far. It stresses human
worth and dignity as being formed in the image of
God and Christ's exultation of human life by sharing
it.
THIS HIGH veiw of humanity is the core of the
pope's strong emphasis on human rights and justice,
his challenge to all sorts of repression and
abuses-economic, military, social, and religious. He
hammered on the theme in his address to the U.N.
General Assembly on Monday.
While insisting on classical Christian morality and
church discipline, including priestly celibacy and the
prohibition of women as priests, he does it in 4
pastoral conversational way that does not bear the
authoritarian lash of legalism.

on flares
organization of individuals and groups
opposed to nuclear power said yester-
day that they would try to occupy the
site despite warnings that they will be
facing police from all six New England
states.
Police cars and National Guard
trucks were entering the site's guarded
main gate yesterday while demon-
strators scouted the terrain, set up-
campsites, and held strategy meetings.
AN ESTIMATED 200 to 300 protesters
were in this town of 5,400 by nightfall;
many of them camping free in field'
and backyards owned by local residents
who support their cause - stopping the
Seabrook plant in particular and th6-
use of nuclear reactors in general.
Coalition mlembers told. reporters,
that "thousands of people from all
across the country will come to
Seabrook in an attempt to establish a
permanent occupation of the plant
site."
They stressed-that their plans were
"completely non-violent" and defended
their call for ladders, shovels, and wire
cutters to breach the fence around the
site.
IF THE PROTESTERS go ahead
with their plans, they are expected to
make their move about 5:40 a.m'
tomorrow at low tide, when the sal-
water marshes around much of the site
would be partially drained.
Their literature says "our strength
lies in numbers" and "if thousand
assault the plant at the same time, the
police will be overwhelmed and the
plant will be ours."
Town officials were bracing for the
latest in a series of protests at the plant
since construction began in 1976.
"There are too many different elemen-
ts in this one to write it off as just
another demonstration,' said Jim
Falconer, a town selectman. "The
Boston group that's running this show
has refused to work with police to
prevent trouble, and that's a bad sign."
"THE ONLY destruction of property
we plan is the fence around the plant,"
said Jamie Factor, one of the leaders.
"Cutting through the fene is the only
