CATHOLICS CAN LEAD WAY IN CIVIL RIGHTS CHICAGO:
AMERICA'S top leader in the civil rights movement said here that in big Cities which are strongholds of the Catholic Church, "Catholics c an show the way to other religions and the whole community in building a just city and eliminate all traces of racism." The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, who led an estimated 20,000 persons here in three days of demonstrations over charges of de f acto segregation in schools, lauded the efforts of priests, nuns and the laity here and earlier in Albany, Georgia, and Selma, Alabama, on behalf of the inter-racial justice.
"It's a hard fine, meant to teach the clergy a lesson, but I have, no complaint about it," one priest said. He added that he was disappointed over the testimony given by police in the case, which he contended was at variance with the facts of the situation.
TRIBUTE TO CATHOLICS
NOT WORKING
THE Nobel Peace Prize winner especially paid tribute to the efforts of Catholics in the South, where they are in the minority. 'In the great Northern cities where the Catholv: Church is very strong, there is a special responsibility and treat opportunity for leadership on the part of Catholics," Dr. King said. During his stay here. three Catholic priests and a lay official of the Catholic Inter-racial Council were convicted of charges of disorderly conduct and obstructing traffic during a demonstration. They were fined, but freed on a bond each pending appeals.
NO DISORDER There were no reports of disorder during the latest three days of demonstration; when marching groups ranged from 6,000 to 30.000 persons. The demonstrations were marked by a series of s.treet-corner rallies during which Dr. King spoke. lie called the "growing
ecumenical nature" of the civil rights struggle "one of the beautiful aspects" of the situation. The co-operation between the three major religious faiths, Dr. King said, has cemented good inter-religious relations for the future. Before passing sentence on the three priests and the laity leader, Magistrate James P. Piragine commented: "It is a sad duty to impose sentence, but we must have law and order irrespective of the cloth or the church." Those convicted included Fathers John Hill (40), Thomas Heaney (27) and Richard Heidkamp (24) and John A. McDermott. e xecutive director of the Chicago Catholic Interracial Council.
Father Heaney said the police witnesses contend( they had announced ovt_l loudspeakers that there would be arrests if the demonstrators did not disperse. He added: "We have witnesses that the loudspeaker was not working properly." McDermott also questioned the accuracy of the police testimony. He complained that the defendants were unable to tell the entire version of their story during the trial. He said the demonstration was a legitimate protest march and th e demonstrators understood police had agreed to allow them to occupy two traffic lanes in the march. He claimed a "police trap" was laid at an intersection and involved some two hundred policemen.
