- Seoul sentences ex-president, churchmen.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: C-45903 SEOUL SENTENCES EX-PRESIDENT, CHURCHMEN SEOUL -- A former South Korean President, a Roman Catholic bishop, two Protestant leaders, and a respected historian were sentenced to prison by a special military court in Seoul for opposing the regime of President Park Chung Hee. The former President, Yun Po-Sun (left), 76, who was accused of having passed funds to students for anti-government demonstrations in April, was given a suspended three-year sentence. The head of the court-martial said the court was “lenient” with Mr. Yun because of his past contribution to the nation as head of state (1960-62). Catholic Bishop Daniel Tji Kak Soun of Won Ju (right), 53, an outspoken critic of the Park regime, was sentenced to 15 years and his “civil rights” were suspended for another 15 years.

- Korean president's wife slain.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: PC-45912 KOREAN PRESIDENT’S WIFE SLAIN SEOUL -- The wife of South Korean President Park Chung Hee was fatally wounded here by a gunman who attempted to assassinate her husband. Mrs. Park, 49, died in a Seoul hospital on Aug. 15 several hours after she was shot in the head during a national observance of Korean independence from Japan. The murder of Mrs. Park was viewed here not only a personal tragedy for South Korea’s First Family but also as highly unfortunate for the growing human rights movement, which includes many Christians, opposed to the Park government, a military-backed regime. President Park was not injured in the attack. He apparently ducked a first bullet fired when a lone gunman ran up to the platform where the president was speaking in Seoul’s National Theater. A second bullet struck Mrs. Park, who sat behind her husband. The assailant was captured. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (R-8C-74-DS)

- Melkite archbishop resigns.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: C-46054 MELKITE ARCHBISHOP RESIGNS HAIFA, Israel -- Melkite Catholic Archbishop Joseph Raya of Akka (Galilee) has announced his resignation as spiritual head of some 40,000 Melkites in northern Israel. He said his resignation was in protest against what he called “interference in the archdiocese by his Patriarch in Beirut, Lebanon -- Maximos V Hakim -- and by Pope Paul. The 57-year-old Lebanese-born prelate, a United States citizen, said he intended to return to the U.S. to go into seclusion to think and pray. He came to Israel from Birmingham, Ala., in December 1968. The unexpected decision to resign followed earlier statements by Archbishop Raya that Jerusalem should be recognized as Israeli -- and not “international” -- and his expressed support of Israeli authorities in the prosecution of Melkite Catholic Archbishop Ilarion Capucci of Jerusalem on charges of smuggling arms and explosives to Palestinian guerrillas.

- Soviet churchmen visit India.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-46624 SOVIET CHURCHMEN VISIT INDIA MADRAS, India -- Two prominent Soviet churchmen, Archbishop Yan Matulis (left) of the Lutheran Church of Latavia and Russian Orthodox Metropolitan Philaret Denisenko of Kiev and Galicia, recently visited India at the invitation of the National Christian Council of India. During their visit they went to New Delhi, Hyderabad, Bangalore and Madras. In Madras, they were given a public reception by the Church of South India and other churches and Christian associations. The two churchmen maintained that there is absolute freedom of worship for the 60 million Christians in the Soviet Union and that the government is not interested in how religion is practiced in families. The churches, they said, do not interfere in the political life of the state and confine themselves to religious activities. Churches in the Soviet Union are financially independent of the state and are self-supporting, which each denomination having its own theological schools or seminaries. Any preaching that is done, however, is done only within the churches. “We do not and cannot preach in the streets or any public place,” one of the churchmen explained.

- Hits Philippines 'restrictive' probation.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: C-46641 HITS PHILIPPINES ‘RESTRICTIVE’ PROBATION MARYKNOLL, N.Y. -- A U.S. Roman Catholic missionary to the Philippines, who recently escaped deportation but was placed on “restrictive” probation in Manila for three years, has called his situation “unjust,” according to a report from Maryknoll headquarters. Father Edward Gerlock, M.M., a missionary in the Philippines for some 12 years, said, “I feel like a man who expects to die but only gets a broken leg. But I wouldn’t advocate getting broken legs as a good thing.” In October 1973, the priest was arrested in Mindanao and charged with being critical of the government’s martial law policies and giving support to the illegal Federation of Free Farmers. During the 16 months since his arrest, a period in which he was placed in the custody of his superior in Manila, church leaders throughout the Philippines rallied to his cause.
