ATLANTA (NC)-Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan of Atlanta has
reiterated his opposition to changes in Georgia's abortion laws in
an editorial in the Georgia Bulletin, archdiocesan newspaper of
Atlanta.
Archbishop Hallinap said: "The heart of the issue is not the
experience of foreign countries like Japan and Sweden. It ilJ not
the 'back-street' practice of illegal abortions. It is not the '
protection of citizen,S before the law. It is not the playback of
the nazi government which started with abortion and sterilization
and ended with the concentration camps.
"The main issue is the human right of an innocent fetus."
The Atlanta archbishop stated that the Church's opposition is
based on two factors. First, he said, "regarding Catholics, it is
our right and responsibility to clarify the moral core of this
medical-legal-social issue."
The second factor, he said, is that "regarding all Georgians, it
is our right and responsibility as citizens and as moral leaders to
many to speak out. We believe they want to vote for the common
good, and the legal rights of all people."

6 .THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., Jan. 11, 1968
Contemporary MusicMass~s The January 9' issue of LOOK magazine
devoted an
entire issue to the sound and fury in the arts today. Movies,
music, pairiting, sculpture, literature, drama, all were
scrutinized in the light of the "now" generation. The results of
the survey were provocative.
The general theme seemed to be that we are living in . an era
where all art is influenced in some way by Marshall McLuhan - the -
medium - is - the - message.. Only the momentary, the actual now,
has any validity for the followers of this cult.
The result in the arts is at once catastrophic and yet.
simultaneously fascinating. In our affluent society, more Americans
than ever have shown an interest in the arts. Never has the choice
been less esoteric. The Church has always been a patroness of the
arts. Centuries of love and devotion to the transcendental idea of
the good, the true, the beautiful, have left 'a lasting impression
in the world. The Church has always showed itself to be adaptable
to the needs of the cultural moment. .
Much controversy is heard today about "jazz Masses", and pop
art. What attitude should the church take . reject or canonize?
Actually, .there is nothing new or startling about folk Masses. Men
such as Ray Repp and Paul Quinlan, are simply earrying on a
traditio~ that has, alw.ays been in the church. William of
Malmesbury, intl1e 13th century, translated A~red the Great's Old
English HANDBOC into Latin. Fro~ this work, dating back to 675 A.
D., we read of a rather familiar, and contemporary
~uation: . . , "The people were very simple and not much
interested in divine sermons, and left the church to go home to
their worldy affairs'right after the Sunday service and before the
sermon. St. Aldhelm, the pastor and avery 'holy man, went ah~ad of
them and placed himself on the bridge leading back to the
oountryside and delayed and delighted the crowqs by singing
humorous and secular songs. Among the secular melodies, he inserted
,verses of ,seriptur:e a~d led the people back into the church and
to right ways".
St. Aldhelm used folk tunes to get the peOple to gQ to church.
Aren't we doing the same thing today, attempt. ing to win the
.8Ittention of a restless gener~tion,to return to the .church by
using a folk tune approach? ,These are challenging times. The
ehureh must use arid accept the artistic offerings of tod~y. It
needs this new style, this new image, to help make the invisible,
visible.,
'T'''uly talented religious artilJts and musicians are rare. It
takes monumental courage and ability to produce lasting art. Much
of the pop art and most of the folk and jazz Masses are M; best
interesting. They are indicative of a trend.
St. Aldhelm did not fear to use the secular. We too need
boldness and courage and patience. Who knows, somewhere in
Haight-Ashbury or Harvard Square there may be a nascent Aldhelm who
some day will do great things for God and church.
Curia Changes For years there has been eriticism of the
Italian
make-up of the VaJtican Curia. For years there has been
agitation both to widen the nationality aspect of the Curia and to
revamp it and modernize its structure and functions.
Rather than draw up the plan himself-and thus be accused of
"&tacking the deck" in his own favor, the Pope has listen~d to
what the Council had to say, listened to the recommendations of the
Bishops' Synod, consulted With the various Congregations and
Commissions, and the plan was ,evolved.
Those who say that the ChurCh moves slowly and autocratically
should see in this weil-planned program a refutation of their own
asse"rlion. And they should also see that against the backdrop of
long centuries the Church knows the value of taking an added year
or two to make changes and thus insure that the changes are
significant and all-embracing rather than quickly-planned' token
ge~ur~. .

At Que.stioning People A Restless Church
The children of our'age are res:tless. In many. waya it seems
they have a right to be restless. The preced.iD generations of this
century have left them a rather shabby inheritance when viewed in
the total historical perspeetne. Our century has been one of" '
violence, cruelty ~m a vast "''''Ie. Man has killed his
fel.......
low man as in no other age. The countries of the world today
spend much of their gross national income inventing new ways in
which this murder may become more "scientific." The emotional yo-yo
of this
, eentury has bred murder, violence, war and depression. This is
part of the legacy which we have given the children of our
time.
The ChUrch cannot escape this restlessness. It cannot P8IISoff
the human facts of life JD this age as'the mere whim of.' few
hippies. To do this is to lo8e her historical continuity. The
Church .on an 1E:ivels of
life must meet this restless age. If not, the lag between
civilization and the church's work OIl earth -will continue to
increase at a rapid pace. This would makl!! her role seem
completebr irrelevant.
Christ became incarnate. He assumed the completeness of
humanity. He was really present in time as well as eternity. So to
the Church, "The city on the Mountain cannot be hidden."
It must be contemporary; it must be present. It cannot hide its
.light under the bushel basket. It has no reason to fear
restlessness and questioning. It should be ever willing to meet in
the market place of life the forces that control the externals of
our existence. The legacy of the past has
been handed on. We must live with it. There are some in the
church, both clerical and lay, who would have us retreat to the
ivory tower of a comfortable Christianity. Others would have us
face this generation in street battles and civil chaos. Both are
extremes and both
are to be avoided. We cannot
throw out the baby with the bath water as some have attempted.
We must enter into this ques
tioning and restlessness to gift it point and direction. If we
fail to do this, other forces .win fill the vacuum of .our'
negligence. This would be a disaster for Christian civilization.
The Church cannot be a mere
relic of history but must alw~ remember that she is the
extension of Christ in time.

.Vocations Drop In Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA (NC)-Voeations to religious Jdlfe dropped by 20 per
cent among men and women in the Philadelphia archdiocese last year,
according to a report by archdiocesan vocatiODfldirector Msgr.
Edward J. Thompson.
Tbe drop was JIl()St noticeable among students at C81bholic high
schools. There was a slight rise in vocations among Philadelphia
college 9tudents.
According to Magr. Thomp-, son's report, 432 men and women from
the archdiocese entered seminaries and religious novitiates.in
1967, 107 fewer than the 539 recorded in 1966, far below the record
803 recorded in 1964.
J()hn Cardinal Krol of Philadelphia said the decline in numbers
"is not entirely surprising.~ He laid the blame on "the degree of
abrasive and negative criticism of the priesthood and of the Church
by self-proclaimed experts who give the impression of
disunity."
The report covered pupils c!I private and diocesan Catholic
schools and Catholic colleges m ,the PhiladeLphia archdiocese. Not.
all entered diocesan seminaries or local religious houses and. not
all will eventually serve in the archdiocese.
The report said 161 men entered sem1naries to become priests; 16
entered novitiates tc be.come Brothers, and 255 girk! entered
orders of Sisters.

Jesuit Sociologist Maps Program For Racial Justice Crusade
CINCINNATI (NC)-A IlOci
ologist here holds rl key position in the Jesuits' nationwide
effort to step up its commitments to interracial work.
Father Thomas Diehl, S.J., secretary for pastoral and social
work in the society's Chicago province, already has started fonning
committees here, in Indianapolis and Chicago to review existing
interracial programs and seek ways of meeting the challenge issued
by Father Pedro Arrupe, S.J., Jesuit general in Rome. Father Arrupe
in November
wrote to the Jesuits in this country, citing the gravity of the
current racial crisis and listing directives designed to help meet
"the crying needs of our brothers in Christ who languish in racial
degradation and human poverty." Father Robert F. Harvanek,
S.J., provincial of the Chicago !P'rovince, in an interview at
Xavier University here disclosed that out of the committees being
set up by Father Diehl may come a provincial commission to deal
with problems of interracial justice and poverty. Father Diehl,
former national
director of the Eucharistic Crusade, a branch of the Apostleship
of Prayer, pointed out that the committees he is forming will
include lay people as well as Jesuits, both whites and Negroes.
New Insight' Also present at nhe meeting
were Father Paul L. O'Connor, S.J., president of Xavier; Edward
P. Vonder Baal', vice-president for public relations; and Dr.
Albert Anderson, who heads the Xavier faculty-student committee for
interracial justice and charity.

Hospa~a~ Functions added that at present 115 registered nurses
are working at the hospital, and proper proportion is being
maintained between the number of patients and nurses.
"We are grateful for the help of our RNs," Sister Coronata said.

The conference is being sponoored by the' National Catholic

,(Jious leaders interested. in the moral and religious values of
umiversity life have been invited to participate in the
con1rerence.
Speakers will include Father lIrAndrew M. Greeley of the

Work of Church Father Clarence W. Friedman,
NCEA college and university department, said "the purpose
~ the conference is not to discuss higher education, but to
discuss the work _of the ChUl'ch m the university."
He said one of the key quesllions to be explored is: what are
the qualifications and formation of the persons, Religious Gl!'
lay, who expresses the presence of the Church in a university
setting?
Both he and Father John T. McDonough, director of the National
Newm;mApostolate stressed the need for special training for
Catholic chaplains working at church-oriented and aecular
universities.
Trained Pel'!!onneU "One reason why the confer
ooce is being held," Father MclDonough said, "is that Newman
chaplains are now assigned on D part-time basis at universities.
They should be specially lh'ained, full-time personnel who
understand the, mentality lllnd needs of university students if
they intend to make the
'eot:hurch's message relevant." "The university now domi
nates all areas of human activity, and the Church's

Roman collar.
