The Archbishop of Detroit, Host Rev. Edward Mooney, in a statement issued here last night expressed his satisfaction over the fact that Social Justice has suspended publication. The statement reads:

"I am gratified to learn that the question between the Postoffice Department and Social Justice magazine, involving a priest of this diocese, has been disposed of as reported in today’s paper. Regardless, however, of how the matter night have been disposed of, I had a definite and explicit commitment from Father Coughlin on May 1 that, from that date forward, his severance of all connection, whether direct or indirect, with the magazine would be absolute and complete. My understanding with him is sufficiently broad and firm to exclude effectively the recurrence of any such unpleasant situation."
