Chinese Reds Release Priests
Hong Kong based AP report says the last two American Catholic priests held in Communist China, the Rev. Joseph P. McCormack and the Rev. John P. Wagner, were released in Shanghai after serving prison terms for espionage. They were arrested June 15, 1953, and freed on term expirations. Four Americans remain jailed on spying charges, including businessmen Robert E. McCann and Hugh Redmond, and Army civilian workers John Downey and Richard Gedgan. Bishop James Edward Walsh in Shanghai and Father Mel Cormack’s arrest for espionage are noted. Release timing had been expected due to past Communist punctuality in prisoner releases.
