Many -Barriers Removed Between Nuns And World

By PATRICK CROSSE

VATICAN CITY (Reuters)-The Pope has ordered abolition of some of the barriers which for hundreds of years have cut off nuns in the Roman Catholic Church's contemplative o rd e r s from the rest of the world.

The Pontiff's instructions. is- sued by the Vatican's congrega- tion for the religious. were pub- lished Wednesday in the Vatican's official Gazette.

They provide that nuns devoted to the contemplative life may leave their convents:

1. In time of danger from air raids.

2. When the conventa are requi- sltioned by the military or civil authorities.

3. To cast their votes in political

elections.

4. To undergo an urgent opera- tion or to visit a specialist.

5. When a convent's finances make it imperative for the nuns to earn money.

6. To help in the care of souls. REFORM MOVEMENT

The new instructions are part of a general movement of reform in these religious orders after dis- closures that many thousands of nuns in Italy and elsewhere were living in great hardship, without adequate food, medical attention or heat in winter.

But the new instructions do not lift the penalty of excommunica- tlon. the gravest punishment the Catholic Church can inflict, for any nun of the "enclosed" orders who leaves her convent without

proper cause, or for any other person who enters one of the "en- closed" convents without authoriz- ation. ' .'

Among those allowed to enter these convents are heads of state and their wives. cardinals, doc- tors and surgeons -summoned to look after the sick, and priests who hear the nuns' confessions.

The instructions institute a new classification among women's religious orders, to be known as "minor papal enclosure." G

Hitherto the orders of "papal enclosure" may permit some of their nuns to go out into the world to help the other clergy in teach- ing the catecism, giving other religious instruction te a c h i n g

To Call International Meet To Establish Canal" Control

By AIITHUII GAVSIION

LONDON (AP) - The foreign ministers of Britain, France and the United States agreed Wednes- day night to call an international meeting - including Egypt and Russia-to establish international control of the Suez Canal.

The agreement was disclosed by a U.S. informant who said "the possibility of forceful sc- fion" has receded. ..

He said that during U.S...state Secretary Dulles' meetings Wed- nesday with Prime Minister Eden and the British and French for- eign ministers the possible use of force to sure international con- trol oi the canal appe ed to have been accepted as "a last resort."

Presumably only a hostile act by Egy against British or French s ps would bring military action by those countries.

Dulles joined a conference of Western Big Three diplomatic leaders to hear British and French demands for the political support of the United States in case fight- ing flares in the wake of Egypt's nationalization of the canal.

U.S. informants said one of Dullea' main s is to urge moderation British and

His report of this tough stand may have been released deliber- ately in the hope of both influenc- ing the United States to line up with the Britons and French and to put pressure on the Egyptians.

Eden has been under fire from some of his Conservatives as well as political opponents for his gov- ernment's Middle East policy. Eden's political future could be at stake in the outcome of the Suez crisis.

As if to underline tough inten- tions, the government ordered land. sea and air forces both at home and in the Mediterranean to stand by for possible troubles. Leaves of the crews of two air- craft carriers in home waters were cancelled. At least three warships are cruising near Cyp- rat in the eastern Mediterranean and-others were bcrtbed at Malta.

U. S. Aluminum Workers Strike

NEW YORK (AP)--The United States aluminum industry was hit Wednesday by a strike of 20.000 workers in 21 plants. However. a strike deadline was extended for 31.500 workers in 19 other plants where a separate union has juris- diction.

The walkout was called by the United Steelworkers of America. which was simult.aneous',y en- gaged in drawing up new con- tracts to end the month-long steel strike. '

The new strike. result of a wage dispute, halted operations at 12 plants of the Aluminium Com- pany of America and nine of the Reynolds Metals Company.

Meanwhile, the Aluminum Work- era International Union extended lts'strlke deadline 24 hours until midnight Wednesday night for 10 Reynolds and 9 Alcoa plants.

The plants closed by the USW produce about 50 per cent of the country's aluminum.

A USW spokesman said the un- ion is ready to resume negotia- tions but that no talks have been scheduled with either Alcoa. the largest aluminum producer. or with Reynolds, second in produc-

To Purify Quahaugs

OTTAWA 1Speciall- Satisfact- ory results have been achieved to date in an experiment with qua- haughs which the Federal Dept. of Fisheries is conducting at Pow- nal Bay. Prince Edward Island. This was apparent from a reply given to a question asked by Neil A. Matheson several days ago.

The question asked for the in- formation available to d from the experiment. The repy indic- ated that the purpose of the exper- iment is to determine whether qua- hangs taken from contaminated areas will cleanse themselv when transferred to suitable clean- sing areas.

It added that ”Pow'nal Bay is one of the areas found suitable for cleansing urposes and pre- liminary exper ments have" given evidence of effective cleansing to such an extent that transfers on a semi-commercial scale for fur- ther testing are planned for the near future."

The experiment was requested by both Mr. Matheson and T. J. Kickham. M. P. Kings, after it had been explained to them that certain commercial operations of a considerable size were possible if permission could be obtained to take the quahau.-gs from contamin- ated areas and transferred to a pure water area where they would purify themselves.

World Faces Death On A Collossal Scale & .Worse

No Change In British Supply Of Arms To Israel

LONDON (AP)-Britain's policy on sale of arms to Isreal is not related to Egypt's nationalization of the Suez Canal, the House of Commons was told Wednesday.

Sir Robert Boothby, a Conserva- tive, asked whether the govern- ment would reconsid its decision not to allow Israel to purchase such arms as they consider neces- sary "for the effective defence of Israel." '

Lord- Hope. foreign undersecre- tary, replied:

”The nationalization of the Suez Canal is not related to that dis- pute. The government. therefore, see no reason to change their pol- icy as regards the supply of arms to the Middle East as a whole."

NEW DELHI (Reuters)-Prime Minister Nehru Wednesday issued a warning that the world faces death on colossal scale from nil- plear explosions, "and what is much worse, the genetic effects of these explosions on present and future generations."

In a forward to a government publication on 'Nuclear Explosions and Their Effect, Nehru wrote that other world problems because relatively unimportant when com"- pared with the nuclear problem. The book, prepared at Nehr-u's request. says that in terms of de- structive power the nuclear wea- pon is the cheapest thing the world has ever seen.

"One single weapon by its blast effect alone would be enough to destroy completely any metro- polis," it declares. "By the sheer logic of the situation megation bombs and cities cannot coexist for a long time. . . ."

"Even without war we have what are called nuclear test ex- plosions, which in some measure spread this evil thing over large parts of the world." Nehru wrote

DIFFICULT '10 ASSESS

The book was prepared by Dr. D. S. Kothari of India'ai Defence Science Organization. in' associa- tion with Dr. Homi Bhabha, in charge of atomic energy war and Dr. V. R. Khanolkar, he of the Cancer Research Institute in Bombay.

After surveying atomic energy development and fission and fu- sion explosives, the book declares: "One thing that clearly stands out above everything else is 'that the range of destruction of high-yield nuclear weapons is truly colossal. The multiplication factor in com- parison to the devastation caused by conventional weapons is so big that it becomes extremely diffi- cult to appreciate and assess the seriousness and peril of the new situation." -

It says that knowledge of the safety factor in radioactive fall- out is very incomplete and adds: "It is extremely important in the meantime that radiation exposure is kept down to the lowest possible VIII-I0. otherwise irretrlavabla harm may be done to what is lit- Crltlythe most precious treasure tt3:lIll:lIHIIlI -- the genetic bert-
