QUITO (NC) - A leaderin the Church's fight againl:ltcommunism in Ecuadormaintains the Reds will losedespite their influence in school,field and "actory.

Father Carlos Vela, S.J., saysthe. "outlook is optimistic" al:­though two successive govern­ments have given the worldpause to wonder just how muchthey depended on communisthelp. .

According to Father Vela thepeople of Ecuador are alarmedby a rapid rise in communistboldness during 1960 and 196'1~

, when Jose Maria Velasc~ ,Ibar~a:,was president. They have ,r~,acted strongly and are deter­.ri1~ned to oppose ,furtpeJ; c~~~munist gains, the Jesuit asse.rts.

Propaganda Aplenty ",,;, The army is thoroughly anti­'communist, he says, and rema(ris,the country's strongest guarant~''of~solidarity with the'West. '. '

Father Vela warns that thecommunists are determined to

-discredit and eventually destroythe army. He says the commu­nist slogan is "Without the dis-,organization of the army, theRevolution cannot proSper."

This anti-army campaign hasbegun with the vilification of toparmy officers. Ecuador has nocensorship of communist propa­ganda, either domestic or im­ported, and the campaign rollsalong unimpeded. Tons of ma­terial arrive regularly fromCuba and other' communistcountries.

Drive lIs SlowingNot a single elected official of

the national government is 1!1communist. But several of the"functional" senator~lawmak­

ers selected by professional oi'business groups such as la bor,agriculture, 'industry and com­merce, and education-are com­munists.

Communists are both activeand influential in universitycircles, among teachers in pri­mary and high schools, and insome factories. Recently theyhave spread their influence torural areas, among the Indians.

But the steam has ,been takenout of the communist campaignamong the Indians. Owners oflarge haciendas have agreed togive Indian farmhands the landon which they and their families

. are living.

They viewed two films, "SayOne for Me," starring BingCrosby and Debbie Reynolds,and "La Strada;" an' Italianmovie starring Anthony Quinn:

Archbishop Alter pointed outthat students' attitudes andviewpoints are shaped "surrep­titiously' and unconsciously" bythe films they see, and that theresults are "highly significantin' their later lives.'"

Bill's S)copeWASHINGTON (NC)­

A spokesman for Catholicwelfare 9 per a t ion s haspraised a House committee'saction in limiting the scope ofpublic welfare programs whichwould be eligible for Federalaid.

Msgr. Raymond J. Gallagher,secretary of the National Con­ference of Catholic Charitieshere, made his statement incommenting on a new versionof the administration's multi­million dollar welfare bill (H.R.10606) approved by the HouseWays and Means Committee.. As presented to the commit­

tee, the original bill would havegiven Fe'deral aid to local pub­lic welfare programs which ex­tended their efforts to includefamilies "likely to become" re­cipients of public relief.

The new version strikes outthis phrase and substitutes"those who request such set'­vice."

New GroundMsgr. Gallagher called this a

"realistic limit."In previous statements, the

Monsignor had noted that vol­untary welfare agencies tradi­tionally had ,accepted the re­sponsibility for helping families"likely to become recipients" ofpublic relief.

He said that extending pub­lic welfare operations into thisarea would have given them"conl1iderable new ground" andput them in competition withvoluntary programs, which lackthe financial resources possessedby public operations.

Even in these days.. of astronomical figures and highfinances, the sum of one billion dollars is impressive. Itshould bring a sense of pride to the heart of 'every Ameri­can Catholic to learn in mid-November last year, the cumu­lative value of the relief supplies sent overseas by theCatholic 'Relief Services-National Catholic Welfare Confer­ence passed the one billion dollar value mark. The programbegan, operating in 1943. Almost half the' supplies wereshipped during the past five years.

During last year, for example, a shipment of relief sup­'plies for overseas left some United States port on an aver­age of every four and one half hours.

The CRS-NCWC carries out its program of charity insixty-seven countries; emergency and disaster help is givenand women and children of every race and creed and age.

This program, supported by the Catholics of the UnitedStates, is the largest overseas voluntary relief agency.

Last year the program fed more than twenty-eight mil­lion persons.

There are full-scale assistance programs going on in ­sixtysE!ven countries; emergency and disaster help is givenwhenever and wherever the need arises; morel self-help pro­grams are being inaugurated; and the resettlement and in:'tegration of refugees is another vital work. ..

This is charity at its best. And it is accomplishedthrough the generosity of American Catholics, giving inthe Thanksgiving Clothing Drive and in the AnnilalLaetare Sunday contributions to the Bishops' Relief Fu.nd.The United States government has helped in the' donationof surplus foods. '

The Appeal Handbook of this year's Bishops' ReliefFund reads like an Arabian Night story of generosity andefficiency and good done for all manners of people and in 'all types of ways, from placing libraries on merchant shipsto sending gamTI;la globulin to Turkey, from resettling thephysically handicapped to' providing blacksmith tools forKenya, from feeding and clothing millions of persons allover the world to helping care for the one hundred thou­sand exiles from Cuba.

The first of April will once again see American Catho­lics renew their spirit of love of God and neighbor bysharing their blessings with others in the, world throughcontributions to the Bishops' Relief Fund. Vaf[u~~Hi1l Council

The staff which the bishopcarries on ceremonies is calledthe CROSIER or CROZIER. Thename is notderived fro mcross, as manymistakenly be­lieve, ilut' fromthe Latin "cro­cia" meaning"crook", 'refer­ring to the hookor staff. Thecrosier is usu­ally about fivefeet ten incheslong or aboutthe height of the average man.

The pastoral staff, as it some­times is called, is presented tothe bishop at his consecration.It has no functional purpose, butis symbolic; it is the symbol ofthe bishop's authority.

required to participate. In addi­tion to diocesan Bishops, thefollowing are members of thecouncil: patriarchs, cardinals,even though they be not bishops,superior generals of exempt reli­gious orders, the abbot primateand abbots general of monasticcongregations and prelates who

'have jurisdiction over a districtof their own. Such an imposinglist of members from all over theworld indicates that the councH.is universal.

Holy Father Presides, But it is not just the numberof, 'participants that makes acouncil ecumenical because illthe past numbers have variedfrom as few as 100 to as manyas 1,000 and, in some cases, theBishops have been only fromthe East. '

A council would be no lessecumenical if only 50 out of 2,000possible members would attend,Neither is the length of time thatthe council lasts what constitutesit as ecumenical; some have

. taken several years, while othershave been completed but in a rel­atively few days. Neither is ex­ternal solemnity or splendor

,what is important; for some, mthe past, have been conductedwith little spectacle.

It is Holy Mother Church her­self in the person of the Popewho makes it clear that a par­ticular council is to be generaland not merely local. Todaythere are definite laws of theChurch in the Code of CanonLaw governing the requirementsfor a general council, which tellsus that no council can be held asecumenical which is not con­voked by the Holy Father andthat it is the Holy Father, eitherpersonally or through a repre­sentative, who presides over allecumenical 'council.

Confirms DecreesFurther, the Holy Father is to

determine what matters are tobe treated; it is he who is t8transfer a council from one pl<!ceto another, if necessary, to sus­pend or dissolve it and to con­firm its decrees. In past cen­turies, the law was not so clear,so many of these present tech­nical requirements varied.

TUESDAY - Third Week illLent. While more serious sinsrequire the celebration of anauxiliary sacrament, Penance,every celebration of the liturgyincludes an absolution, a procla­matio!1 of forgiveness. Our sins,far from keeping us from theworship of God, draws us to it.

To the poverty of our failuresand falls, God, offers the neverending supply of oil of the firstReading. And in the GospelJesus teaches a forgiveness thatsurpasses 'all natural limits andbounds. '

MONDAY - Annunciation ofthe Blessed Virgin Mary. Thisjoyous feast interrupts lentensobriety with the announcementthat He is to come for Whom theworld has waited.

God's Word is united to ahuman nature in the womb ofthe Virgin. He comes to tell usthat none of our inadequacies,our failures, our faults, can pre­vent the love of God from res­cuing us, if we will accept Him.So the great prayer of everyMass, the Eucharistic prayer orcanon, even in a penitential sea­son, begins "Sursum, corda,""Lift up your hearts."

WEDNESDAY-Third Week inLent.. The 'Christian must becareful lest 'he fall into a kindof formalism of sin. It is easy tofollow the hypocrites condemnedin the Gospel today and to iden­tify sin with' social manners andsocial mores.

Sin, J esu's teaches, is a matter. of the human heart and will, of, the interior of man, much more'

than of merely the external act.And virtue's fidelity is to God'scommandmen't (first Reading),rather than to human social pat­'terns and customs and folk ways.

Says ....Southeast AsiaNeeldls Longterm Aid

CHICAGO (NC) - A 'priest. from, South Vietnam said here

th'at southeast Asia will fall tothe communists unless the U. S.assists for years any country inthat area ,willing to fight for itsfreedom.

Father Raymond de Jaehger,who directs· a news agency inSouth Vietnam called the FreePacific Association, said: "Thecommunists are trying to take allof southeast Asia without alarm­ing the people of the U. S. to thepoint that they will put upstrong resistance.". He said the morale of the Viet­namese is "much better than ayear ago" because of the visits toSouth Vietnam of Vice PresidentLyndon B. Johnson and Gen.Maxwell Taylor.

Lenten' 'Jewels

THIRD SUNDAY IN LENT.The' Church's public worship isalways teaching us, always re­minding us of things we like' toforget. Today's lenten Massstresses the reality of sin, theresponsibility that the dignityof human freedom imposes uponus. It is God's power in Christthat casts out the .devil, thatguards the castle, that sweepsclean and adorns the humanheart (Gospel), but the man istruly blessed who not only hearsthe Word of God but keeps it.

So great is His grace, His be­nevolence towards us, that weare cooperators in the new cre­ation. And, while He forgives asoften as we return to Him, ourmoral effort to walk in love, towalk as children of the iight(Epistle), is an essential demandof our discipleship and of ourFaith.

TODAY - Thursday, SecondWeek in lLent. It is not primarilyin miracles and wonders thatGod speaks to man, Christteaches in the Gospel, but in thewords of his prophets and wit­nesses.

The Scriptures, read to theChristian people whenever theyassemble for Mass, are far moreimportant as source and nourish­ment 0;: faith than any visionor u~usual event. Reference tothe Resurrection directs our len­ten retreat I again toward thatEaster eve'nt.

TOMORROW-Friday, SecondWeek in Lent. Both Reading andGospel teach of the repection ofGod's messengers by man. Thepoint is that despite our rejec­tions of His Word and His ap­proach, He comes and comes

'again. Hi:.. love never fails. It issteadfast. And, even though HisSon is announced in the Gospelparable as His final gesture, inthe Church His Son continues tocome to us in Word and sacra­ment, again and again in spite ofthe fact that we also reject Himfreqilently.

Lent is a time for sorrow forsin, for penance, but also forthanksgiving in the knowledge

',that we are as humanly power­. less to lose His mercy as we areto merit it.

SATURDAY-Second Week inLent. The prodigal son of the

, Gospel and the story of Jacob. and Esau in the Reading both il­lustrate the gratuitousnesss ofGod's mercy, of His forgivinglove. It ic not according to ourdeserts that He rewards us, butaccording to His good pleasureand perfect love. We pray thatour penance may open our heartsto Him and find new life (Col­lect) .

A distraught English,mother wrote to the great Lon­don newspaper, The Times, giving, the real parental objec­tion to television.

She wrote' that the real' danger was not crime orviolence, however, horrible these might be and howevervicious their influeI)ce on the young.

The real danger, she maintains, comes from the com­mercials that' show' "hand-picked beautiful mothers" whoare always calm and kind and efficient. These unbelievablywonderful persons show cooking skills and demonstratehorne appliances that always make the real mothers andacutal homes look shabby and shoddy and inefficient bycomparison.

This, states the letter-writing mother, is the r~al dan-'ger of television: the invidious c~mparisons that the com­

, mercials raise in the minds of children.The argument, at any rate, is a'new one, isn't it,? And

it does contain much merit., .

Children who sit mesmerized by the cathode tube andglued to its every flicker, accepting with uncritical mindswhatever it presents in whatever way presented, run thereal danger of accepting the television world and televisionpeople as reality. Their own modest lived-in homes and­it must be admitted - sometimes far from cool and effi­cient mothers show up badly. What competition can thereaJ ,arents give these glamorous creatures of the make-lotp artist? ,

Perhaps there is only one way to offset this danger.'The old principle of "If you' can't lick them, join them"might apply. And real live mothers in all too real homesmight try imitating the calmness and poise of the' tele­vision people. It could ,be ,revolutionary.

T@ ~<J:lh@@~~HARTFORD (NC)' - A

priest-lawyer advised herethat advocates of Federalaid for nonpublic schoolsshould be "deeply conscious" ofthree truths "which may well- beoverlooked. in the heat of theongoing controversy."

In an' address before membersof the St. Joseph Cathedral par­ish Holy Name Society, FatherRobert F. Drinan, S.J., madethese points:'

1. "All advocates of aid tononpublic schools should haveand should express confidencethat the American people willbe fair with regard to the claimof the' parents of nonpublieschool children."

2. "Although persuasion tendsto merge into pressure, there isa point beyond which any groupin a democratic society may notgo in insisting that its claim berecognized."

3. "The spirit of tolerance,charity and candor must alwaysbe maintained in the discussionof the Church-State problem. "

Reexamine PolicyFather Drinan, dean of Boston

College law school, said "the-ex­posure which Catholic schoolshad last year has brought to thenation an unparalleled oppor­tunity to reexamine the basicpublic policy which this nationdesires to follow if the Federal

.government decides to change afundamental policy and have thetJ:nited States government enterthe area of financing localschools."

He said the Catholic requee't. for participation in Federal aid

to education rests on three prin­cipal arguments: parental righfs,the free exercise of religion, andthe pluralistic nature of U. S.society.

"In all the literature and dis­cussions of Federal aid it appearsthat the argument based on par­ental rights is the fountainheadand cornerstone of the Catholicposition. It must also be said,however, that it seems to be lesspersuasive with non-Catholic,Sthan any other argument,"Father Drinan said.

By Avis C. Rob~rtsThe Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary and of Perpetual Adoration

of the Blessed Sacrament, one of whose, most illustrious members was Father Damien,SS.CC., "apostle of Molokai," arrived in Fairhaven from Liverpool in 1905. Bishop Stang,first bishop of Fall River, invited the order. The first priests who came were Rev. MarieBernard Pierson, SS.CC.,Rev. Stanislaus Bernard,SS.CC., and Rev. HilarionEikerling, SS.CC. In. 1904 thecongregation had acquired itsmonastery at Spring and AdamsStreets, Fairhaven, through VeryRev. Hugh J. Smyth, pastor of·St. Lawrence Church, New Bed­ford. The trio of priests movedinto the home on May 11, 1905.It is now headquarters of theSacred Hearts Fathers in theUnited. States.

The founding by the congre­gation of St. Joseph's Church inFairhaven set the pace for theestablishment of many new par­ishes by the Fathers in NewBedford, Fairhaven and CapeCod.'

Less than 48 hours after theyarrived in Fairhaven, -the 'firstthree. priests w ere sayIngMasses in Phoenix Hall, Centerand Main Streets.

In the early days there wereless than 50 people in the con­'gregation. The hall was used forthree Sundays but beginning'June 11, 1905 Mass was offeredat the monastery. At each Mass,sermons were preached in Ertg­1ish, French and Portuguese.

The first baptism took placeat the monastery June 5, 1905,and the first marriage and thefirst funeral took place on thesa~e day-July 1, 1905.

Church-SchoonWithin a few months after the

priests' arrival plans were drawnfor a combination church andschool. A wooden structure, itscornerstone was laid Sept. 24,1905. On Feb. 11, 1906, BishopStang dedicated St. Joseph's andpreached at the Mass of Dedica­tion.

In 1923 it was decided to builda new church-the present hand­some brick structure. BishopFeehan laid the cornerstone forthe new building Sept. 14, 1924,and dedicated the church on May3,', 1925. .', . ', Before the cornerstone wasiaid the foliowlng document wasplaced wtth~n it: ",t:he_y~ar of

are diocesan synods convenedby the Bishop of a diocese; theseare" not· really councils becausethe Bishop alone is the legislator.Neither are the provincial coun­cils of bishop of a particular' ec­clesiastical province or the plen­ary councils (e. g. three PlenaryCouncils of Baltimore from 1852­1884) involving several ecclesi­'astical provinces and presidedover by a papal legate the sameas ecumenical councils; for theyare not concerned with theChurch as world-wide, but onlyIn their own area. Similarly theannual Bishops' meeting held inWashington differs from generalcouncils because they do notmake laws in the strict sense.

InfaHib!e Teaching

The purpose of the gatheringof Bishops and other prelatessummoned by the Holy Father inan ecumencal council is to dis­cuss and settle questions of doc­trine and discipline affecting thewhole Church. These gatheringsare characterized by much delib­eration and discussion before de­crees are issued. Many ecclesias­tical scholars are called to assistthe Bishops in the discussion ofthe agenda; these scholars haveno voice in the council as suchbut merely serve as consultantsor advisors. '

The Bishops, in their capacityas official teachers and judges,have the right to air their viewson the questions to be treated;for they constitute the mind ofthe Church in action in theprocess of formulating decrees.Much time and effort is spent in.arriving at precise wording for.these decrees, which must' thenbe submitted for confirmation bythe Pope. After papal confirma­tion these decrees become part'Qfthe solemn infallible teaching ofthe Church.

General councils are not strict­ly necessary inasmuch as, thePope can personally make dog­matic definitions under the in­fluence of the Holy Spirit; butthe Holy Father does not definedoctrines, in practice, relyi~g

'solely on himself. Even thougbthe agreement of the Church isnot required for the infallibilityof a papal definition, the Pope,using natural prudence in addi­tion to the influence of the HolySpirit, always employs mean~ toobtain' the agreement of .theChurch. Bishops are, consultedall over the world and the gen­eral beliefs of the faithful areexplored before solemn procla­mations issue forth from theHoly See.

Doctrinal Matters

Sometimes doctrinal questionsare so complex and disputedamong Catholics or errors are sopernicious that the Holy Fatheruses an extraordinary means toascertain the mind of the Church.This extraordinary means is theecumenical council, whose func-

. tion it 'is to carefully consider thearguments of theologians andscholars and formulate the mindof the Church in doctrinal anddisciplinary matters. The ecu­menical council is an extraordi­nary means precisely becausethey meet rarely and usuallyonly in connection with somegreat crisis in the life of theChurch.

WASHINGTON (NC)-PreSi-.dent Kennedy said here at Q

prl.!yer breakfast that religion "isthe basis of the issue" separat-­ingthe U. S. from its adversaries.

The PresideI;lt told the men'liil,breakfast, attended by leadinggovernment, military anddiplo­matic officials, that religion kJnot an instrument of the coldwar.

"Rather" he said "it is t1lJebasis of the issue' ~hich sepa­rates us from those who makGthemselves our adversary."

The President also drew mcontrast between the attitude ofU. 'S. austronaut Lt. Col. JohnH. Glenn Jr. and that of SovietcOl!monaut Maj. Gherman Titov.

Lauds Col. GlennThe President noted that~

Glenn stated recently that hehad made his .peace with Godyears before his space flight.But Titov, Mr., Kennedy re.­called, said his space flight madehim realize the wonders of tmicommunist system.

"I prefer Col. Glenn's BJi)a

swer," said the President, "be­cause I thought it was so solidlybased, in his 'own life, in hisactivities in his church, and Ithink reflects a quality which welike to believe, and I think wecan believe, is much a part ofour heritage."

The President then quotedAbraham Lincoln as saying: "Ibelieve there is a God. I see thestorm coming and I believe Hehas a hand in it. If He has a partand place for me, I believe thatI am ready."

In his own words, the Pres}..dent stated: "We see the stormcoming, and we believe He hasa hand in it, ;md if He has iiiplace and a part for us, I believethat we are ready."

When, for example, seven­;year-old Ned wanted to build ahouse for his cat's expected kit­tens, he consulted his dad.

'Ceylon Bloc Presses,For School Seizures

COLOMBO (NC) ~ Only 15months after the government'sdecimation of Ceylon's Catholicschool system, ,an anti":Catholicbloc within the National Educa­tion Commission is pressing forgovernment seizure of the re­maining private schools. '

But a Catholic member 6f thecommission has, countered wTiha memorandum charging thatsuch a move would be undemo­cratic and asserting that privateschools should be given govern­ment subsidies.

The leftist government headedby Premier Sirimavo Bandara­naike, beginning in December1960, pushed through a series oflaws providing for governmenttake-over of most privately oper­ated schools. The Catholic schoolnetwork, the largest in the coun­try, had about 750 institutions.Only 42 were able to take advan­tage 6f a provision of the lawswhich permitted topflight secon­dary schools to continue-with­out government aid and barredfrom charging tuition fees. 1

Father Byran O. Walsh, Miamidiocesan director of CatholicCharities, has' since the latterpart of 1960 directed a programof care for unaccompanied refU­gee children with the support ofthe U. S. Departments of Justice,State and Health, Education andWelfare.

Father Walsh and other socialworkers from the Miami Cath­olic Welfare Bureau were 'amongthe first to observe the arrivalof the unaccompanied childrenwhen the influx of refugees be­gan two years ago.

Seeing the need for an organ- .ized program of care for the chil­dren, Fatber Walsh contacted theDade County Welfare PlanningCouncil and late in 1960 met withrepresentatives' of all public andprivate child welfare agenciesiQ Miami.

,As a result, the planning coun- 'cil appealed to the Federal gov­ernment for funds to support aprogram of care for the boys andgirls by the agencies of theirrespective faiths. Federal fundsw:ere supplied.

MADRID (NC)-A Span­ish AssOCiation I for Chris­tia~ Jewish Friendship wasfounded here at what is be­lieved to be the largest jointmeeting of Christians and Jewsin Spain since the latter wereexpelled from the country in1492.

The association's founders saidits establishment was inspired bythe meetings of Pope John withleaders of other religions.

Among those at the openingmeeting at the headquarters ofSpain'~ Catholic Action organi­zation were Dr. Solomon Gaon,Grand Rabbi of the SephardicJews' of the British Common­wealth and Max Mazin, head ofMadrid's Jewish community of1,500 persons.

Dr. Gaon told the meeting that"only cooperation among ourreligions can save us" and addedthat it is necessary to fightagainst materialism "with thearms of spiritual values."

Good ChristianLaity Is SpurTo Vocations

DENVER (!'fC) - Laypersons who Jive a Christianlife can provide a powerfulimpetus for increased re­ligious vocations,according to anarticle in the vocations issue ofthe Register.

The article in the current na­tional Catholic weekly news­paper points out that there isnot only a critical shortage ofpriests, Brothers and Sisters butalso of laity WllO live their Faithin everyday life.

Entitle "Everyone Has a Voca­tion," the article states:

Growing Concern"There is a growing concern

to realize the complementaryfunction of the laity and the Re­ligious. The Church needs thelaity to bring Christ to the office,to the factory, to the ball park,and wherever men gather. Theirvocation is to radiate their Faithin the exercise of their profes­sion." ,

Stating that there is "a short­age of people willing to live thevocations of a Christian life," thearticle adds: "Once the challengeof life is generally accepted bythe laity, it will not be long be­fore the seminaries and noviti,.ates will be filled to overflow-ing." ,

One wonders if too much a.ttention is not paid tD politics.The major portion of newscasting and the press are devotecll towhat one politician and one country say of another. James lFree­man Clarke once remarked: "A politician thinks of the nextelection; a statesman, thinks of the next generation.;' Whetherthis be true or not, it Is generally assumed' that politics, In oneway or another, determines the world.

Pick up the Old Testament and read its historical books.What does one find? Was it the Prime Mtnister of Babylon, theSecretary of the Chaldean State or the Dic­tator of the Assyrian Union who were thecauses of wars and rumors of wars? Occa:'sions, certainly, but not causes. What de­termined peace to a great extent was thespiritual condition of Israel. When it obeyedthe Law of God,.it was at peace; whendishonesty, the breaking up of family, civildiscord and adultery arose, trouble began.Did not God say that'He would,punish themin war by making Assyria the "rod andstaff of His anger"? Time and, again Israelpulled down 'the pillars' of its own, houseand brought ruin upon its own head. 'True,war was the act of man, .but it was thejudgment of God. A man who does not eatsuffers a headache, but God does not send the headache by anexplicit desire. He has simply made it the law of nature that weshould eat; by disobeying, we bring discomfort upon ourselves.

The Church is the new ][srael, the fellowship of those whobelieve in Redemption and the prolongation of Christ in nRnsMystical Body. More than politics, it is the spiritual conditionof the Church at any given time that determines the peace OR'

woe of the world. Could not Russia be the "rod and staff" ofGod's anger, just as Assyria was in the Old Testament? llf weallow ·the break-Up of family, if we refuse to discipline' OUR'

children, if we are indifferent to the hungry and poor of the, world, if we will not educaie priests in Africa and Asia-in a

word, if we deny aid to the nRoly Father to bring Christ to thedark places of the world~al'e we not failing to perform our 'duty and thus endangering the world? The misuse of our free­dom can frustrate God's lLoving Will, and when that Will Isfrustrated,][t . is transformed into God's punitive action. It ifJwe who have' the Faith,' not' just po.iticians, who determinethe' world. Read your soul' ·instead· of. the press and you willfbid out what will· happen tomorrow. .

r- We are worried this year. One large diocese gave $100,000less to the Holy Father than 'last year; another, $75,000 less. Arewe failing the Vicar of Christ?' God forbid! Pray . . . deny your­self • . . make sacrifices. Help save the world for Christ andyou will' save yourself. Twenty-seven cents per Catholic per yearis not enough for the Holy Father to educate, feed and nurse 2billion pagans in mission lands. U we can save Africa and Asiaand Latin America for Our Lord, we will save ourselves. Asummit conference with Khruschev is not as important as oursacrifices for the summit of our Faith-the Vicar of Christ. Sendyour sacrifices now. ',' :

Physical'EducQ'ti:ori "ProgrdmsIn Diocesan Schools AnswerChallenge on Youth Fitness

BY Clement J. DowlingCanadians were astonished and somewhat hurt when

Prince Philip charged them with being soft and flabby.Americans have been accused of the same by their ownphysical culture experts. Analysis of the situation foundthe charges to be true. Some58 per cent of 7,000 Ameri­can children were unable topas s the Kraus - Weberphysical fitness tests in 1956.Only 9 per cent failed in certainEuropean nations. '

President Kennedy anxiouslyset up the President's Councilon Youth Fitness. The challengeand recommendations offered bythe Council have met a readyresponse in our Catholic highschools.

Taunton's Coyle students sup­plement their varsity athleticswit h intramural basketball,tennis, volleyball and handball.Like students in most of ourDiocesan schools their freshmenand sophomores engage inprescribed calisthenics and tum­bling.

Two-thirds of the girls at Do­minican Academy, Fall River,take part in intramural basket­ball and volleyball under thedirection of Miss Nancy Walsh.The Fall River girls also followthe exercise routine suggestedby the President's Council. Com­posed of 10 girls from each classtheir Athletic Association plansand controls the physical educa­tion aspect of their high schoollife.

Dream ProgramParents of Jesus-Mary Acad­

emy students will gather in theschool hall to watch their daugh­ters vie in various athletic con­tests. This sports night will pin­point the physical accomplish­ments of the J.M.A. girls.

Next week the Attleboros'Bishop Feehan High rolls into'high gear with a new physicaleducation program that will in­clude intramural baseball, track,golf, volleyball and tennis. Theirnew gym program will featurecalisthenics.

Called a dream program byphysical education teachers, FallRiver's Sacred Hearts Academydivides its school into St. Mar­garet's and St. Agnes' teams andcarries on year long activitieswhich culminate in two ParentNights.

Unique in its approach, everystudent is a participant in aseries of relays, stunts, andgames. Mrs. George E. Snyder,physical education director, isbeing assisted by school captainAnn Turner, team captains Pa­tricia Mead, St. Agnes, ElizabethCoIllns, St. Margaret's, and co­chairmen of the Athletic Coun­cil, Eleanor Hacking, St. Agnes;Angela Medeiros, St. Margaret's.

Towards FitnessWithout a gymnasium of its

own, Prevost High uses nearbyLafayette Park for intramuralvolleyball, baseba'll and softball.Stifled by the lack of any facil­ities, New Bedford's Holy Fam­ily High finds it impossible tocarry on any physical develop­ment program.

Sacred Hearts Academy inFairhaven, St. Anthony's, NewBedford, Bishop Stang, NorthDartmouth, St. Mary's in Taun­ton, and Mt. St. Mary's, FallRiver-all have intramural pro­grams designed to promote goodhealth, keeping in mind Presi­dent Kennedy's recent words:"There is an increasingly largenumber of young Americans whoare neglecting their bodies­whose physical fitness is notwhat it should be--who are get­ting soft." Hard to face is theSelective Service fact that oneyoung American in two todayis ,rejected.

A Freethinkers suit againstthe project was dismissed by thestate Supreme Court. An appealhas been entered in the Appel­late-Division.

:- A statewide organizationformed here to obtain state­financed bus transportationfor pupils of private schools will"fight to the finish" for its ob­jective, its c~airman said.

The statement was made byJames P. Cox of Jefferson City,chairman of the Missouri Com­mittee for Equal School BusTransporta tion.· Some 60 delegates attendedthe organization's meeting here,and the majority of them weresaid to be Catholic parents.

Plan CampaignThe organization issued a

statement saying ,its purpose isto "spend its time, efforts and

jinances calling upon the Gen­eral Assembly to pass legisla­tion to give private and paro-'chial school children the sametype of bus transportation givenpublic school children,"

Cox said that "a fight to thefinish is planned and an effortto raise money for the campaignwill begin immediately,"

The committee adopted theslogan "Bucks for Buses." '

Cox said that a speakers'bureau will be set up and thecommittee will employ a lob­byist.

Luth'erans Agree"We have no argument with

the public school system," hesaid. "If we are successful, itwon't cost I;I1uch more money tothe state because the majority of

·the school buses are passingmany of our doors now."

Rev. Walter Niedner, pastor ofTrinity Lutheran church here,said that Lutherans are in sym­pathy with the committee'scause.

Atty. Gen. Thomas F. Eagle­ton has ruled that because ofa 1953 Supreme Court decision,private school children cannotbe given bus transportation bythe state under Missouri's con­stitution. His' opinion is thesame as that handed down byGov. M'- Dalton when lie was at­torney general.

The report says, that "therewill be countervailing forces atwork" (the force of other lob­bies, for example) and that "aconsiderable group of politiciansand others will be vocally criti­cal of ~rresponsible conduct,"

Washington, like. the capital of every other I!ationwith a democratic f<;>rm of government, is a happy huntingground for lobbyists representing not only labor and man­agement but a great variety of other special interestgroups as, well. The exactnumber of lobbyist~ inWashington at any giventime is a matter of conjec­ture '\:lut it would probably befair'to say that there are morethis year thanthere were lastyear and thatthere will bestill more to­morrow t ha nthere are today

Surely this isa safe predictionin the particu­lar case of un­ions, trade asso­sociations andindividual com­panies or businesses. The numberof lobbyists in these three cate~

gories has increased by leapsand bounds during the pastquarter of a century, and thechances are it will continue togrow at a steap.y pace for theindefiriite future.

. Brookings StudyThis forecast, in the specific

case of individual company orbusiness representa~ives, is cor­roborated by a study 'entitled"The Business Representative inWashington" published recentlyby the Brookings Institution, anindependent organization de­voted to nonpartisan research,education, and publication. ineconomics, government, forelgnpolicy and the social sciencesgenerally.

This study-a' report on theround-table discussions of 19Washington business representa­tives on the nature and scope oftheir job as they see it-says thatabout 130 of the country's 200biggest manufacturing companieshave already established Wash­ington offices and predicts thatmany others can be expected tofollow suit::

"It ic; probably," the Brookingsstudy says, "that most largecompanies will have Washingtonoffices and that many mediumsized or even smaller companieswill also have offices if they do'an appreciable ,volume of workfor the government. The officesthemselves will probably b~

larger than those of today, per­haps averaging 10 people, notcounting clerical personneL"

"\Jotes Dangers involvedNot all business representa­

tives in Washington are lobby­ists in the technical sense of theword, but presumably almost allof them spend at least part of

"It is true, 9f course," he said,"that as a matter of politicalreality a Federal program ofgeneral school aid th,at includedfun d s for religious schoolswould have little chance ofgetting through Congress.

"This would result in partfrom the sincere,' constitutionalconvictions of some legislators- they bear the same kind ofresponsibility ·that the President·does but it would un­doubtedly have to be attributedin great measure to the bigotryand hostility of those pepople,unskilled in constiutional law,who would rather see no Feder- ,al aid to education than see onecent go for religious education,"he went on.
