CLASS mil WITE Poland Limits Corpus Christi Processions Warsaw, Poland, May 29 The Polish Communist regime has banned all Roman Catholic religious processions traditionally held after the Corpus Christi holy day, a Government spokesman said Monday.

The spokesman said processions will be permitted this year only on Corpus Christi Day (Thursday), not during the eight-day period following the feast day as has been traditional. The Government ban was based on a recent instruction of the Vatican congregation of rites abolishing liturgical observances following the Corpus Christi celebrations. The ban appeared certain to touch off a new stage of conflict in the bitter church-state struggle in Poland.
