for the Pope, 73, Has Trav-- eled Thorny Road in Last 10 Years New York, March 3 Pope Pius XH, the fragile and wondrous man who is the earth's greatest single buffer against Communist enslavement, celebrated his 73rd birthday and tenth year as supreme pontiff yesterday. He celebrated it by or icing xrora shortly after the Roman dawn until' all other lights in Vatican City were dimmed. It is his custom and his wish. No man works harder, none spares himself less. Few of his predecessors, reaching back in an unbroken line to SL pestuous times or played a more definite role in the temporal affairs of mankind.

In the great war there was little opportunity to maintain the traditional neutrality of his office. Yet he tried. The Al- lies he trusted and the Axis against which he stoutly spoke out both made use of the millions of Catholics. From the humane standpoint, he had no choice but to plead to -hotVte-eaMwhflthitfrv mav ra- gard as but a prelude to a greater conflict. During the German occupation of Italy he received countless German Catholics, though their superior officers made it-evident that such visits were not countenanced.

There were orders by the Nazi high command forbidding all Vatican visitors to bow in the Pope's presence or kiss the ancient Fisherman's ring. Symbolized Their Conscience The Krauts who appeared obeyed those orders, by and large. They stood at rigid attention, and saluted and were inclined to edge away uneasily when the Pope sought to speak to them in his friendly, intelligent way. Yet they appeared there as if instinctively drawn, as if he symbolized their conscience. As the horrors of Nazism began being visited on Italy he took into Vatican City all refugees from that oppression who sought his aid.

The Vatican treasury, all but emptied by the Pope's purchases of food for the starving, was scraped at one time, to procure the necessary gold which had been, demanded of the Jewish population of Italy by a Nazi over- lord. Tne gin was made anonymously. In gratitude, the Grand Rabbi of Rome, Prot Anton Israel Zolli, became a convert, sorrowfully ignoring the well-placed concern of his associates and followers of the older faith.

When Italy ran out of coal In the winters of 1942 and 1943, the Vatican went unheated. The man ate the frusal fare Tiis countrymen ate. And he worked for what remains hia four-point program for peace on earth: (1) The defense of small nations, (2) The right to live. -(3) Disarmament and (4) A union of nations based on the moral principles of Justice and love. tr Appeaiea is turn When our Joes got to Rome and began cascading into the Vatican, their freshness of viewpoint, tfieir frankness and the freedom that shone in their faces proved a tome to him.

The Federal Reserve Board's action also was warmly greeted by the automobile industry, which saw in the move a possible lift to lagging car sales. However, Edgar Kaiser, general manager of the Kaiser-Frazer Corp.

said, "it is not enough," and similar sentiment expressed by Rep. Patman (D-Tex). who has been demanding an extensive easing of curbs on credit ouying. Dropped la Jaaasry The board's order was issued last night on the heels of its report that installment credit outstanding had dropped in January for the first time in three years. The order be comes effective Monday.

It affects these consumer items now under "anti-inflation" controls: Cook stoves, dishwashers, boners, refrigerators, washing machines, automobiles, air conditioners, radio and television sets, phonographs, sewing machines, vacuum cleaners furni ture and rugs. This is what the reserve board order does: 1. Reduces the down paymenfTfor all the controlled items, except automobiles, to 15 per cent, from the present 20 per cent The down pay ment for autos win remain at one-third of the total trice. 2. Allows 21 months to pay off the balance due after the cash payment on all items.

The time limit in force now is 18 months where the credit amount is more than $1,000, or 15 months when it is less, than 11,000.

Three Governors Frankfurt Germany. March 3. UP The three Western military gov ernors today ruled out inclusion ox Berlin in the forthcoming Western German State.

Pone's Message To U.S. Children New York, March SH-WV-In a special Lenten radio message to American children yesterday, Pope Pius XII urged them to think of their less fortunate brothers and sisters throughout the world. "Think of them first In your Lenten prayers" the Pope said. "Pray that they may be able to receive the same schooling, the same books, pencils, school supplies, food and clothing that you enjoy. Pray that they may be able to have the same things, the same -the same benefits that you have in America.

"Some of them will nver a train feel the welcome of a mother's kiss, nor see the smile on a father's litis. They need you. They cry for-nity from your open hearts and hands."
