'POLISH CARDINAL SAYS RIDS NEGLECT "VITAL PROBLEMS" POLAND'S STEFAN CARDINAL WYSZYNSKI HAS CHARGED THE COMMUNIST REGIME WITH NEGLECTING POLAND'S VITAL PROBLEMS W HILE TRYING TO IMPEDE THE CELEBRATIONS OF THE MILLENNIUM OF POLISH CHRISTIANITY The Primate of the Church of Poland, in ceremonies in the ancient Christian c itadel at Frombork, castigated government authorities for interfering with the painting of Our Lady, Queen of Poland. The image, for centuries the focal point of the national Marian shrine of Czestochowa, had become the "pilgrim Madonna," a prime subject of veneration at millennium celebrations in various key cities of Poland.

Police, Catholics Clash In Warsaw LAST SUNDAY DEMONSTRATING POL ISH CATHOLICS CLASHED WITH RIOT POLICE WHILE MARCHING TO THE HEADQUARTERS OF THE RULING COMMUNIST PARTY IN WARSAW. The violence came after a service in St. John's Cathedral to end celebrations marking :he Christian Millennium in Poland. Although there was nothing inflammatory in :he sermon delivered by Cardinal Wyszynsky, a large crowd of about 5,000 marched from :he cathedral to the Cardinal Palace chanting lymns. singing the national anthem, "Poland Still Is Free," and shouting support for the Cardinal and Bishops. The Cardinal urged the gathering to be calm and go home. Not heeding his plea. they marched slowly to the party headquarters. Police made no effort to stop them. but channelled them on to the footpaths. When they neared the headquarters, police reinforcements in trucks poured out of the alleys and squares and broke up the march, striking at random as the marchers fled. Although many were hit with the rubber truncheons. none was seriously injured. During the march the demonstrators chanted "Freedom of speech," "Catholics unite" and "We forgive, we forgive." The latter was apparently in support of the Polish Bishops' request to forgive the Germans for the World War.
