SOLOMON STREET GRIFFIN, GEORGIA McDonald FUNERAL HOME Phone 5532 452 North Hill Street Griffin, Georgia VIENNA (NC) — Disagree ment over Church-State rela tions was cited as a major cause leading to the break-up of the coalition that has governed Aus tria since the end of World War II. The coalition included the Catholic-oriented People’s par ty and the Socialists, the na tion’s two largest political groups. Chancellor Julius Raab of the People’s party took the initia tive in ending the coalition, ac cusing the Socialists of block ing needed legislation. Both par ties of the coaliton have now agreed on Parliament’s dissolu tion of new elections, scheduled for May 10. In addition to Church-State relations, other points of con flict between the People’s party and the Socialists include pub lic housing legislation, tax re lief for small businesses, sales of stock by nationalized indus tries and implementation of a memorandum settling a dispute with U. S. oil companies. These were cited by Chancel lor Raab in a report to the na tional committee of the People’s party. Major religious issues involve the Austrian concordat with the Holy See and the restitution of Church property. The Church property includes real estate and funds for the maintenance of the clergy and various Church institutions con fiscated by the Germans during the nazi occupation of Austria. The concordat question, long a touchy one in Austrian poli tics, has been deadlocked for several months.

GRIFFIN, GA. Austria during the regime of Engelbert Dollfuss, was repudi ated by the nazis when they took over Austria in 1938. When Austria regained her independence, the Socialist par ty held that the Dollfus govern ment was “illegal” and that the treaty provisions affecting Church-state relations inside Austria were invalid. The People’s party, on the other hand, held that the con cordat was valid because it was signed by two internationally recognized governments. After long negotiations the two parties agreed last year to accept the treaty’s validity. The government, however, informed the Holy See that it could not be enforced because certain of its provisions are incompatible with present Austrian law and suggested the negotiation of a new concordat. The Holy See replied by criti cizing the Austrian attitude of admitting the concordat’s vali dity, but failing to enforce it, as incompatible with logic and honest dealing. The Vatican note indicated that the Holy See was willing to negotiate modi fications of the treaty, but only after Austria had proved her good faith by fully implement ing it.
