Reds May Keep Out U.S. Priests
Washington — (U.P.)— U.S. officials said today there apparently is only a slim chance of another American priest getting into Moscow to replace the Rev. Georges Bissonnette.
They based their judgment on Russia's explanation yesterday for ousting Father Bissonnette from Moscow last week. He had been the only American clergyman in the Soviet capital.
Russia ordered the Roman Catholic priest out of the country by last Saturday but gave no reason for the action at that time. The United States filed a vigorous protest charging Russia with violation of the 1933 Litvino agreement establishing formal relations between the two nations.
