Expulsion of Catholic Priest From Russia Sparks U S Protest
In Moscow an American priest, Rev. Bissonnette, bade farewell at his final Mass before expulsion from the Soviet Union. U S officials protest the move as a breach of the 1933 Roosevelt Litvinov pact granting Americans rights to religious services in Moscow. The Assumptionist order said it would seek permission to replace him with Rev. Louis F. Dion.

Kansas Senate Gazette Exempts Charitable Bequests and More
Kansas Senate approved a measure exempting certain out of state gifts to Kansas charitable and educational institutions from inheritance taxes. The bill moves to the governor. Also sent to the governor was a $1 million Lawrence bond issue approval for hospital improvements. A new Senate bill would allow a non graduate pharmacist over 35 with 10 years experience to take the state exam. Additional Senate actions would permit third class cities to merge waterworks and sewage management, pay jurors witnesses and other travel, allow disabled voters to register and vote by mail, and set minimum ice cream weight standards. Tentative bills would authorize second class cities to declare streets trafficways and fund street improvements citywide, and to build larger streets with costs borne by the city.
