PAGE OTR THE; I -IL MAT T^ IS44 Rev. Orlemanski Says Stalin Favors Freedom of W orship ew England Priest Recounts Visit to Russia Red Cooperation with Pope Seen Possible il Fight on Persecution By The Associated Press CHICAGO, May 12. - The Rev. Stanislaus Orlemanski, New England priest whose flying trip to Russia pro- voked critical comment in some church quarters, quoted Premier Sta- lin today as advocating freedom of worship. He also attributed to the Chief of the Soviet Union the belief that co- operation with the Pope was possible "in the matter of struggle against coercion and persecution of the Cath- olic Church." The big, blond, curly-haired cler- gyman from Springfield, Mass., talked rapidly and drummed his fingers on a hotel room desk as he told report- ers of his 12-day visit in Russia- a journey that attracted consider- able attention in and out of Congress. Questions Answered He also issued a statement which contained questions he said he sub- mitted to Stalin and Stalin's replies. It read: "Number 1-Do you think it ad- missable for the Soviet Government to pursue a policy of persecution and coercion with regards to the Catholic Church? "Marshal Stalin's answer: As an advocate of the freedom of conscience and that of worship I consider such a policy to be inadmissable and pre- cluded. "Number 2-Do you think that the cooperation with the Holy Father, Pope Pius XII, in the matter of strug- gle against coercion and persecution of, the Catholic Church is possible? Cooperation Possible "Marshal Stalin's answer: I think it is possible." The Polish-American priest stated that he was an American, that he was not a Communist, that he be- loged to. "no clique, no faction nor party," that he did not represent the Catholic Church nor the U.S. State Department, and that he went "as a private citizen to study the Polish question," and "to help my Church and Poland."

America's search for freedom was the theme of the movie, which de- picted labor's struggle for recogni- tion. Details of massacres about which "few knew and few remem- bered," were shown to demonstrate the elements of fascism in America, that were at work. against labor. The fascist elements in this coun- try were shown to be so strong that the people could do nothing but live in fear of their lives and liberties, until a Senate Investigation Com- mittee, lead by Senator LaPollette, revealed the true story behind the strikes and massacres. Fictional pictures of Ku Klux Klan meetings and atrocities, the under- handed methods of the Pinkerton spies, and the problems of labor in the Tenant Farmers' Union were shown. The events of the Memorial Day Massacre in Chicago, when the CIO was organizing the steel workers, were presented. Paul Robeson acted as narrator and also delivered the closing ad- dress. He urged Americans to stand up for the rights of America present- ed in the Bill of Rights, and "to con- tinue its united efforts toward the eradication of Hitler and all types of fascism."
