The trial appears to be an example of Communist ruthlessness and unfairness and predatory methods of persecution. The fact that the individual being tried was a high church xman has given the proceedings a world wide interest. " It is a matter of common belief, supported by numerous reports from persons in a position to know, that it is a common practice in Russian circles and Russian dominated areas for officials in order to secure a "confession" from a prisoner charged with a crime to drug him, secure a confession while the accused is under the influence of the drug-, and'later to present it as evidence at the trial. This is believed is what was done in the case of Cardinal Mindszenty. Because this practice is generally known the indignation of half the world over the trial and its outcome has been rising almost daily since the trial. On the heels of the Cardinal's trial comes the news from Communist led Bulgaria that some fifteen top leaders of the United Evangelical Church have been indicted on the charg-e of acting as spies for the United States and Britain. There is little doubt that the-trials of these men will follow the same pattern as that of Mindszenty, that they too will be drugged, and while in an irresponsible state "confessions" will be secured from them which will be used as "evidence" in their trials. Relying on the long precedure of similar trials in Communist countries western people do not accept at its-face value the Cardinal's repudiation, while in custody, of a letter he wrote before his arrest. That was the letter which said any later admissions of guilt made by him could be considered as having been obtained under duress and due as the cardinal putit'td'"weakriess of the flesh". --~1-- The reaction that this particular trial has awakened is due to the fact that it is an attack upon the church. It definitely brands the Communist party as an enemy of the fcchurch. As dumb as they are the Communists know better than to resort to persecution of the church. Millions of people who would remain impassive and unmoved at the infringement of territorial rights or even human rights are instantly and vindictively and actively aroused at the slightest attack upon the church. The whole history of mankind does not record a single instance in which an attack upon the church has succeeded. It is a singular but undeniable fact that it is upon such things that the church thrives and grows. Can it be that this is a Communist move that will in the future brand them as enemies of the church even as they have already been branded as enemies of human liberty and the dignity of the common man ?

The hospital is approved by the American Medical Assn. and recognized by the American College of Surgeons. The effort put forth in raising the money and turning a j res'donee into a hospital, takes a graat deal of courage and stamina', and only one with a burning desire to see a vision come true, to be arte to serve the "public through taking care of their ills, could have stayed with the dream and worked and sacrificed until the realization became in reality a recognized hospital. Truly Mrs. Painter is North Canton's "Florence Nightingale," her untiring efforts and courage has gone a long way to giving North Canton a hospital they can well be proud of. She is a graduate of Mercy Hospital in Canton and attended Wooster College. She had been in charge of Pyschiatry and on private duty registry since graduating in 1936. When first opened to the public on September 22, in 1947 the hospital was able to take care of IS patients in its 11 rooms, and has to date taken care of over 500 patients and three births. Now throuji the tireless efforts of Mrs. Painter and others who have become interested in the project to cive North Canton a thoroughly equipped up - to - the,- minute hospital, a new kitchen and cafeteria have been added in the basement. X-Ray equipment which was donated by Dr. Basinger is being installed and a surgery with equipment has been added. When installations are completed the second floor will be used for obstetrics. There is also an Iceless Oxygen Tent, Autoclave for Sterilization', a combined suction and antiseptic machine, Basil Metabolism, an Ultra Violet Ray Machine, Infra Red and also sufficient physiotherapy. Dr. Basinger, who is chief of staff and Dr, Hendershot of North Canton have- aided -greatly in the development of the hospital, Mrs. Painter stated. Plans are being made 'to add a new wing to the hospital as soon as funds are available, also a testing laboratory will be added in the near future.

Enemies of Human Liberty
The manner in which the trial of Josef Cardinal Mindszenty was held has created wide distrust of the Hungarian
government. The trial appears to be an example of Communist ruthlessness and unfairness and predatory methods of
persecution.
The fact that the individual being tried was a high church
xman has given the proceedings a world wide interest.
" It is a matter of common belief, supported by numerous
reports from persons in a position to know, that it is a common practice in Russian circles and Russian dominated areas
for officials in order to secure a "confession" from a prisoner
charged with a crime to drug him, secure a confession while
the accused is under the influence of the drug-, and'later to
present it as evidence at the trial. This is believed is what
was done in the case of Cardinal Mindszenty.
Because this practice is generally known the indignation
of half the world over the trial and its outcome has been
rising almost daily since the trial.
On the heels of the Cardinal's trial comes the news from
Communist led Bulgaria that some fifteen top leaders of the
United Evangelical Church have been indicted on the charg-e
of acting as spies for the United States and Britain. There
is little doubt that the-trials of these men will follow the
same pattern as that of Mindszenty, that they too will be
drugged, and while in an irresponsible state "confessions"
will be secured from them which will be used as "evidence"
in their trials.
Relying on the long precedure of similar trials in Communist countries western people do not accept at its-face
value the Cardinal's repudiation, while in custody, of a letter
he wrote before his arrest. That was the letter which said
any later admissions of guilt made by him could be considered as having been obtained under duress and due as the
cardinal putit'td'"weakriess of the flesh". --~1--
The reaction that this particular trial has awakened is
due to the fact that it is an attack upon the church. It
definitely brands the Communist party as an enemy of the
fcchurch.
As dumb as they are the Communists know better than
to resort to persecution of the church. Millions of people who
would remain impassive and unmoved at the infringement of
territorial rights or even human rights are instantly and
vindictively and actively aroused at the slightest attack upon
the church.
The whole history of mankind does not record a single
instance in which an attack upon the church has succeeded.
It is a singular but undeniable fact that it is upon such
things that the church thrives and grows.
Can it be that this is a Communist move that will in the
future brand them as enemies of the church even as they
have already been branded as enemies of human liberty and
the dignity of the common man ?

The Voice of Silence
Silence may be far more eloquent-than speech.'It-may
shout more loudly than a strident voice."It.may before
expressive than the most grandiloquent ora.to.ry,,Tt.may datn
by the omission of praise:—6r it may graaxt consent to the
most nefarious of acts.
The Psalmist said: "These things hast thou done, and I
kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an
one as,thyself."
If we keep silent when we see a wrong committed, we
give consent to it and we become an accessory after the fact.
- "Speech may be silver and silence golden" but when silence
abets a wrong, its gold is as dross.
"There is a' time to keep silence, and a time to speak",
and now when the world is torn by cruelties again, when the
forces of evil are chafing at their chains, is the time for
speech. It was Mr. Justice Holmes who said: "The greatest
menace to freedom is an inert people."
It was the silence of the German people while Hitler
rose to power and committed his first acts of cruelty that
condemned them. It was the silence of the Communists and
their fellow-travelers when the Soviet first thrust out its
tentacles to enslave neighboring- nations which condemned
them." .; [ i i > 11 \jf • * ,
If we are silent in the face of evil, we, too are condemned. If we believe in the principles laid down in our own
Constitution and above all in those statements of freedom
given utterance in the Bill of Rights, we cannot keep silent.
When freedom is threatened anywhere, w7e must speak out,
and when religion—no matter the creed—is attacked, we
cannot remain silent.
It is not a matter of taking sides. It is the coming to the
defense of right against wrong:, of justice against injustice,
of liberty against oppression, of religion against paganism, of
the sanctity of the individual against the supremacy of the
State.
Americans, don't-compromise ot bargain with another
person's rights or freedoms. When we keep quiet when we
should speak out, you aid in selling your brother down the
