PAGE 6 THE IttllNELANtofiR (W1S.) DAILY NEWS MARCH 11, Czech Commies Step Up Attacks On Religion VIENNA, Austria Communist rulers of Czechoslovakia have stepped up their attack? against religion, according to Czech newspapers and the reports of refugees reaching Vienna. The prime target is the Roman Catholic Church. The latcsl drive concentrates on pressuring members of the Czech armed forces who still belong to churches to drop their membership and quit atlending services.

Religion Called 'Harmful'. The Ostrava newspaper Nova Svoboda said, "Atheistic propaganda must be carried out consistently and systematically on the largest possible scale." It called on all teachers, cultural and political workers to join the drive lo explain Ihe "harmful character" of religion. Recent refugees interviewed by Westerners say Catholic soldiers are commanded to attend lectures attacking their church and to pledge to drop their membership. At the same time there are renewed reports of secret arrests of more priests in Czechoslovakia. Many arc reported sent to labor cnmps.

The growing problem of juvenile delinquency is attacked by numerous Czechoslovak papers, including the-Communist parly organ Rude Pravo and Ihe trade unions paper Prace. "It is a sad and tragic picture," said Pracc, relating conditions in Prague, Ihe capilal. Prague police arc waging a sliff campaign against prostitution and venereal disease, Pracc adds, and prostitutes arc punished with fines. "But what is a fine to They laugh about it," complains Pracc. "And what is being done about youth from the provinces who wander about Prague? When asked what they want in the capilal, they refuse to answer.

They subsist on the leavings in snack bars and they sleep in the railway stations." Market Reports Final New York Stocks.

Sweden Fights Jap Claim to Child YOKOHAMA, Ml The Swedish goVc.Tnir.ijnl and a Japanese couple contested in court today for custody of the pretty, 6- ycar-old blonde daughter of a dead Swedish woman and an American father who has never seen his child. The girl's unwed mother was identified as Viviane Wilson, a Swedish national whose father formerly taught at Yokohama National University. Miss Wilson died of tuberculosis less than a year after her daughter Marianne was born in 1949, and her friends Mr. and Mrs. Masakalsu Yamaguchi have raised Ihc lilllc girl.

The eourl was lold the child's father was an American civilian employe of the U.S. Army who returned to the United Stales before Marianne's birth. His name was not disclosed. Sweden's minister to Japan, Baron K. G.

Lagerfelt, contended in the Yokohama District Court that the child is a Swedish because her parents were not married. He asked the court to appoint him her guardian and approve her removal to Sweden. An attorney for the Yamagu- chis asserted the child had American from her father, but since he had deserted her she should remain with her foslcr parents. The Japanese couple did not appear in court. Their lawyer said Mrs.

Yamaguchi had been in a stale of semihysleria since learning she might lose the child. Marianne speaks only Japanese, considers herself Japanese despite her Nordic features, and is "supremely happy" with her foster parents, the Yamaguchis' lawyer said. The court scheduled another hearing on the case for May 4. II was lold that bolli sides were Iry- ing lo reach an amicable oul-of- eourl settlement. Dulles Praises Viet Nam's Progress SAIGON, South Viet Nam UV- Secretary of State Dulles declared today thai Soulh Viet Nam has made "striking progress loward consolidation of a strong and free country" in the past year.

Speaking to a large crowd at Saigon's airport, he said the ro- ccnt election of a constituent assembly in Soulh Viet Nam "Is a significant slcp loward dcvclop- menl of a constitutional representative government." Green, Red Ducks Coming This Year There will probably be green and red ducks in Wisconsin Ihis year and the Conservation Department is anxious to record how many of these birds come this way. Florida has trapped, dyed in the two colors and released widgeon, pit'ails, blucwing teal, grcenwing teal, ringnecks and scaup. All ducks trapped were banded but only these species Avcre dyed.

R. N. Burger of the department will keep a record of the dyed birds that may be seen in Wisconsin. Wool Payment Is Based On Price Despite cfforls to get details of the new wool program to wool growers, reports reaching the Oneida Agricultural Slabilizalion and Conservation Office indicate that at lea.st a few growers will be disappointed when Ihcir wool incentive payment is received, The disappointment will result from failure of growers to realize the often emphasized point thai Ihc size of the incentive payment depends on the price received for Ihe wool. Wilh Ihc second wool marketing year under the new program starting April 1, Stanley Wrbclis, chairman of the Oneida Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Commitlee, again poinls out that Ihc more the grower gets when he sells his wool the greater will be his incentive payment; the lower the sale price, the smaller the payment.

Here's the way Chairman Wrbcl- is explains it; The payment will not be determined until the 1955- clip sales records are in. The payment to the grower will be based upon the percentage needed to bring the national average return to wool growers to 62 cents a pound. The words "national average" are significant. So is "percentage." If it figures out that a 15 per cent payment is needed-to bring the nalional average return lo 62 cents per pound, the grower will get a payment based on 15 pel- cent of what he received when he sold his wool. It is recognized that the 1955 crop, with few exceptions, has been sold.

Nothing can b'c done about that. But another season is at hand and the new marketing year will begin April 1. It is for that reason that the chairman emphasizes again "the more you get when you sell your wool, the greater will be your wool payment." Gambling on this country's defense is like war profiteering. Rep. F.

Tax Returns Lag So Far This Year The lotal number or income tax returns filed thus far this year is lagging behind last year's total on the comparable date, says George Rcisilner, district director of internal revenue for the Milwaukee distract Filed during the firsl 10 weeks of this year arc 564,500 income tax returns, compared to 615,800 last year at the same time. All told, last year a little more than 1,580,000 returns were filed in Ihe Milwaukee district and Rcisimcr also expects about that many this year. This means, he says, that in the remaining five weeks of Ihe filing period aboul one million returns will be expected. The number of refunds scheduled to dale Ihis year, however, far exceeds that of the comparable date last year.

As of March 7 this year some 170,500 refunds had been scheduled for payment, with a dollar amount of $12,753,730. Last year on the same date about 75,000 refunds had been approved, with about million involved. In commenting on the current income tax filing period, Director Rcisimcr again called attention to the fact that the due date of 1955 corporation income tax returns is March 15 instead of April 16 as is the case with individual taxpayer returns. According to Internal Revenue officials, many returns are being received that are not complete. Insufficient information as to exemptions, the lack of signatures, the absence of schedules in support of some deduction or other finincial transaction, missiong Forms arc bul some of Ihc reasons for a delay in processing such returns, missions of this sort also delay in most instances the scheduling of refunds.

Taxpayers can avoid such delays, the officials point out, if they will glance once more at Iheir returns before mailing them. Filing of re- lurns at the earliest possible date, too, will enable Inlcrnal Revenue Service personnel to expedite returns processing operations and avoid the congestion caused when the filing of returns is delayed up to the deadline. Director Rcisimcr emphasizes that early filing enables his staff CHARCOAL BRIQUETS In Stock 10 25 Pound Bugs Macdonald Lumber Coal Co. to give the best assislancc and service possible, especially in the matter of refunds. Presently his office is set up to process a total of about 40,000 refunds per week.
