The 8,008 total of those who were fired and those who resigned while still under investigation compared with totals of 2,486 and 6,926, respectively, in the two earlier re-. ports. Not Strictly Comparable The figures were not strictly comparable because, unlike the previous reports, the one issued today did not include figures for the -secret Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). "It has not been deemed in the public interest to release statistics for the Central Intelligence Agency," the report said, "and figures pertaining to that agency are not included in this report."

These figures, together with the 2.096 listed for "subversive data," add up to more than the total of 8,008 because, the commission said, "an employe might have in his file information falling under more than one category" this is, he might be both a subversive, and a sex pervert. The Army was listed as having the greatest number of cases 357. -in which there was "subversive information."

"It is clear that, if the European community were to move forward on this (second) road," the Pope said, "its cohesion would become, as a result, quite weakened in comparison with that of the opposing group."

In order, however, that this expectation be justified, such coexistence must in some way be a coexistence in truth." A bridge of peace cannot be built in truth between these two separate worlds, he said, "unless it is founded on the human beings living in one and the other of these worlds, and not on their governments or social systems. Systems Are Different "This is so because, while one of the two parties still strives in large measure, whether consciously or unconsciously, to preserve the natural law, the system prevailing in the other has completely abandoned this basis."
