Archbishop Spellman
leaves for Tour of
Pacific War Theatre
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
NEW YORK. —The Most Rev.
Francis J. Spellman, Archbishop
of New York, has left here by
plane for a visit to Catholic chap
lains and members of the armed
services in the Pacific theater of
war, in his capacity as Military
Vicar for the armed forces of Hie
United Slates.
Prior to his departure, Arch
bishop Spellman presided at a
Solemn Mass of Thanksgiving for
Victory in St. Patrick's Cathe
dral, here.
Archbishop Spellman visited
the White House in Washington,
where he talked with President
Harry S. Truman about the trip
upon which he was about to start.
He also talked with Secretary of
State James F. Byrnes before his
return to this city.
Archbishop Spellman will be
back in New York by October 4,
he revealed, because on that date
he wishes to attend a dinner
marking the opening of the cam
paign for the Allred E. Smith
Hospital.
While slating that the Arch
bishop’s itinerary is “indefinite
and incomplete,” the Chancery
Office of the Archdiocese of New
York said he plans to visit as
many outposts in the Pacific as
possible, including Guam, Saipan,
Okinawa and the Philippines.
“This dinner,” said Archbishop
Spellman before his departure,
concerning the function here on
October 4. “will mark the formal
opening of the Alfred E. Smith
Hospital campaign, and since I
wish to return for it, to be with
the thousands of Al Smith’s
friends, to honor his memory, this
trip will be the shortest in time of
any of my three journeys to the
theaters of war.
BYRNES TO SPEAK
“Secretary of State Byrnes ac
cented my invitation to speak at
(he dinner, and assured me that it
will be his privilege to pay trib
ute to this great American, sym
bol of charily and tolerance, whose
life work of service will be per
petuated through the (hospital.
“Though hostilities were ending
even as I was making my final
plans in Washington, still I want
io visit our boys and their chap
lains in the Pacific, hundreds of
thousands of whom have been
away from home three or four
years, and from whom I have re
ceived requests to come to them,
who have been closest to war’s
danger and are ever closest to my
heart.”
MEMORIAL SERVICE ON
OKINAWA PAYS TRIBUTE
TO HEROIC CHAPLAIN
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
OKINAWA. — Abotit 50 Catho
lic chaplains and more than 4,000
servicemen from privates to gen
erals participated in the huge
memorial service offered at t lie
grave of the Rev. Lawrence E.
Ljgich, Army chaplain, formerly
of the Diocese ot Harrisburg, who
was killed on this island while
braving enemy artillery to aid
three wounded soldiers.
Celebrant of Ihe Mass was the
Rev. James A. Carey, Army
chaplain and priest of the Arch
diocese of Newark. T.he Rev.
Clement Wartman, C.SS.R., Army
chaplain, formerly of the Arch
diocese of Milwaukee, and a close
friend of Father Lynch, delivered
ihe eulogy.
Both sides of the main altar
were lined with jeeps from which
sonic 45 chaplains offered Masses
simultaneously. The hero chap
lain's grave was strewn with flow
ers and a large flag was draped
ovr Ihe while cross marking the
grave.
This remarkable tribute was ot-
iered to Father Lynch as a token
of his gerat popularity with the
troops in Pacific combat areas.
Representatives from all branches
of the Service attended the Mass.
The devotion of the men to Father
Lynch from private to general can
be gathered from an Army‘release
which stated that many hardened
soldiers broke into tears at the
news of his death, while others
just shook their heads in dazed
incredulity.
Father Lynch, called "Ihe holy
hurricane” by the troops for his
tireless enthusiasm, was crouched
in a foxhole on Okinawa when
three men were hit by shell frag
ments. He rushed to their rescue
;yid while assisting them was kill
ed by a second shell which landed
in the same place.
AN ERROR HAPPILY CORRECTED
While the Japanese were still in possession of the Philippines,
American planes inadvertently damaged a native church (below),
when they bombed an area in a small island off the coast Samar.
The airmen released their bombs when they observed what they took
to be Japanese on the grounds aiming guns at them. It turned out
the "enemy” were in fact natives armed only with bamboo poles, j
playing at being guerillas. When a battalion of Seabees arrived on
the island they obtained permission to build the new chapel (above)
out of scrap lumber and an old Quonsct hut. Note that a built-in bel
fry, in the new church replaces the old outdoor bell lower.
