u.s. Reds Try To Use Encyclical To .Compromise Catholic Stand

WASHINGTON (NC) ­A prominent analyst of com­munist tactics has warned that the U.S. Reds are of­fering the hand of friendship to the Catholic Church. He said they should get "a negative re­sponse."

Father John F. Cronin, 8.S., assistant director of the 80cial Action Department of the Na­tional Catholic Welfare Con­ference, made his comment in an interview. '

The Sulpician priest's obser­vations were sought after re­cent disclosure that communists have bid for invitations to de­

'bate on U.8. Catholic college campuses.

Father Cronin said the Com­munist Party, U.S.A., made a "major reversal of policy" after

issuance of the late Pope John XXIII's encyclical Pacem in Terris (Peace on Earth) earlier this year.

There were earlier indications of a change in the party's atti ­tude toward the Church, he said, but communists think Pacem in Terris opens the door to "united_ front relations."

"The earlier indications," he said, "were the forward-looking attitude of the Church, as shown in the ecumenical council; the willingness of the Holy See to have contacts with communist spokesmen; and the increasing social influence of the Catholic Church here, as shown in the National Conference on Reli ­gion and Race."

Under the direction of Gus Hall, chairman of the party, he said, the communists resolved

to send a letter to Catholic leaders in various cities.

"This letter would refer to the e n eye lie a 1, suggesting speakers and debates around the document, around the commu­nist position and around the suggestions where the Pope calls for positive contributions," he said. Discussion in Catholic col­leges was especially encouraged.

He disclosed the Reds already have offered united-front sug­gestions to top Catholic leaders, offering to work with them in areas such as race relations, peace and civil rights.

"These offers have been re­fused," Father Cronin said.

He called for "utmost caution" in any contacts with party mem­bers. T~ee factors make this necessary, he said. They are:

"I) The U.S. Communist party

is not independent, but is totally controlled by *he Communist party, Soviet Union. To the ex­tent that high Church authorities find it prudent to discuss cer­tain issues with communist powers, these discussions should be held with the real centers of authority in the communist world.

"2) The Communist party is actively engaged in seeking to infiltrate power centers here in the United States. Although it is weak at the moment, it could 'do great damage, for example, if it could influence the trend of the movement for racial justice in our nation. If violence were to be substituted for non-violent protest, we could have condi­tions approximating civil war.

"3) There are two areas of potential social tension here at

the moment. The race problem is already in a high state of tension. The unemployment situation could be a serious social problem if it worsens be­yond present levels. Communism thrives in tension situations, and these conditions offer a possi­bility of reviving the weak Communist party here.

"Communists will seek to misinterpret passages in Pacem in Terris, holding that the Church has removed its objec­tions to united-front action. In fact, the encyclical holds that any contacts with communists should be held only by compe­tent persons, with the utmost prudence, and subject to eccle­siastical authority. All these reasons dictate a negative re­sponse to communist offers here in the United States."

Librarians' Convention Sp~akers

Urge Utilization of Mass Media LOS ANGELES (NC) - "The

Library and the Mass Media" was the theme of the Catholic Library Association convention

Speakers covered the range of the librarY from the days of eathedral schools to the school of the future. Robert O. Dougan, head of the Henry E. Huntington Library, San Marino, Calif., des­eribed the growth of libraries attached to churches, cathedrals and monasteries.

Just as these institutions once dominated the lives of medieval 'men, so does mass media influ­ence modern men, he said.

"How librarians can begin to exploit mass media in a positive manner and bring it within the realm of Christian tradition" .Is the way CLA executive board member Father Redmond A. Burke, C.S.V., described the pur­pose and concern of the con­vention.

Father Burke, director of De­Paul Un i v e r sit y Libraries, Chicago, said librarians need to learn to utilize audio visual materials and other mass medi'a techniques for the positive pro­gress of Christian education.

Still Room for Books Father Gordon Hughes, S.S.J.,

of St. Augustine High School, New Orleans, said that "mass media will affect the approach to

Albany Church Falls Victim to Prog,ress

ALBANY (NC) - A victim of progress, venerable Assumption ehureh in downtown Albany dosed its doors and now awaits demolition.

After final services Msgr. George J. Gratton, pastor, locked fi>r the last time the brick church which was built in 1892. The parish was founded to serve a French-speaking community in 1869.

The church and adjoining rec­tory will be torn down to make way for a low-cost public housing development.

Legion of Decency The following films are to be

added to the list in their respec­tive classifications:

Unobjectionable for General Patronage-Murder at the Gal. ~op; Assignment, Outer Space; Lassie's Great Adventure; Viran, the Unbelievable.

Unobjectionable for Adults and Adolescents-Harbor Lights; Just for Fun; Charade.

Unobjectionable for Adults, With Reservations-Fellini. (Ob.

, servation: This film is a probing of artistic, psychological and re­ligious maturity which, moving back and forth between fantasy and reality, is an attempt to reo veal the many influences which shape the creative process of a film director. A recognition of the roots of despair leads the director to a reconciliation with self and others through the joy­ful acceptance of reality.)

James V. Jones, director of St. Louis University libraries, told the convention that mass media presents challenges and opportunities for libraries. Se­lectivity is needed, he said, in making use of mass media. He also commented that the educa­tor as yet rarely makes effective use Alf mass media.

Supports Youth Employment Bill

LANSING (NC)-The Social Action Department of the Mich­igan Catholic Conference has announced its endorsement of the youth employment bill now pending in the U.S. Congress.

The department expressed special concern over the prob­lem of Negro teenage unemploy­ment, which i'!: termed critical.

Its statement said: "For ex­ample, in a Detroit nei '1 ~)or­

hood of 125,000, mostly Negro, 70 per cent of the youth between the ages of 16-21 were out of school and unemployed."

The youth employment bill would utilize the services of thousands of youths through a program similar to the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) of the 1930s, and through local em­ployment programs in which youths would work in hospitals and other institutions and alsa receive technieal training.

Vocations Increase Among Hungarians

VIENNA (NC) - The acting head of the Catholic Hierarchy in Hungary, Bishop Eridre Ham­vas of Csanad, has been quoted as saying that there has been a substantial increase in the num. ber of young men seeking to enroll in Hungarian seminaries.

The Catholic Weekly Uj Em. ber (New Man) said however that Bishop Hamvas voiced re. gret today there are no students from Hungary in the two major seminaries abroad for Hungar­ians -, the German-Hungarian College in Rome and the Paz­maneum in Vienna.

He expressed hope that the situation is only temporary, and noted that the Hungarian gov­ernment "naturally * * * demands assurances that Hungarian sem· inarians would not be exposed to an anti-government spirit at the foreign seminaries."

GARRISON (NC) - A depar­ture ceremony was held here in New York for three Graymoor priests and two Brothers who will work as missionaries in the Diocese of Jatai in Brazil.

The group represents the first venture of the Graymoor Friars, known formally as the Society of -the Atonement, into Latin America. Their assignment to a mission field iri Brazil was made by the Holy See.

He commented: "It is my hope and belief that other parents will concur in our de­cision and that their children voluntarily ,will do the same."

Enjoyment of Rights The state's top legal officer

asserted: "No laws are necessary to compel the exercise and en-' joyment of these rights and no law will be tolerated which will deny enjoyment of these privileges.

"The absence of laws re­quiring the reading of the Bible lmd repeating the Lord's Prayer should make it more meaningful when done voluntarily," Buck­son said.

Urges' Thoughtful' Reading Of 'The Fire 'Next Time'

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy

Your reviewer is late in getting around to James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time (Dial. $3.50), which has created such an impression that almost as many Americans are reading it as are reading Hedda Hopper's revelatitms about Hollywood. Mr. Bald­win is, of course, the most prominent and influential of American Negro authors at the present time, and here he is pouring out his indignation as to the treatment of his fellow Negroes and his concern for the future of an America which does not promptly effect a radical solu­tion of segrega­tion. The book consists of two

. essays, very dis­similarinlength, although entirely similar in sen­timents.

The first and shorter essay is in the form of a letter to another James Baldwin, the', author's nephew.

The younger James is 15 years old, and his uncle is telling him of the wickedness of his white countrymen in condemning the Negro to a ghetto in which it is hoped he will. perish. But the whites, he says, are profoundly shaken as now, at last, the Negro Hi beginning to insist on moving out of that ghetto.

'Terrible Thin&,' "Please try to be clear, dear

James," Mr. Baldwin wrifes, "through the storm which rages about your youthful head today, ab<>ut the reality which lies be­hind the words acceptance and integration. There is no reason for you to try to become like white people and there is no basis whatever for their imper­tinent assumption that they must accept you.

"The really terrible thing, old buddy, is that you must accept them. And I mean that very seriously. You must accept them and' accept them with love. For these innocent people' have no other hope."

The' second essay recalls the author's own experiences when he was just about his nephew's age. At 14 he lived, or existed, in Harlem. The full force of what it means to be a Negro in the American whitE" world was com­ing painfully home to him.'

All about him he saw what others were doing to accommo­date themselves to dreadful con­ditions and steel themselves against surrender to despair. Some were taking to drink or dope, some to vice, some to crime. "In the same way that the girls were destined to gain as much weight as their mothers, the boys, it was clear, would rise no higher than their fathers."

Junior Preacher He supposed he had found a

way out, or at least an anodyne, in religicn. He did not join the church in which his father preached, because he and his father W2re completely at odds. His fathcr represented to him spineless acccptance of the sub­human role for which the whites had cast him. The young Bald­win became a junior pt'cacher in another church.

This gave him certain privi­leges, not the least of which was the privacy which he required for preparing his sermons. And the possibilities wet'e inviting: relative affluence, status, author­ity. His faith, however, crumbled in less than a year.

Among the reasons was his conviction that tht usual religion of Negroes was taken, in coward­ly fashion, from the whites who had put and kept his ancestors in slavery, and imposed on them, or at least induced them to ac­cept, a faith in a God who was no more than an aclamantly prejudiced white man invested with divinity. That faith would help to keep the Negro in the place ·"I,~r(' ~he white man wanted him to be.

Besides, as the author contin­ued, against his father's wishes, in high school, and' read ever more widely, and received from his Jewish classmates devastat­ing criticism of the crude relit gious literature which he had from his church, he began to be skeptical concerning the Bible.

The Bible's inspiration, for ex­ample. He equated biblical in­spiration then, and still does, it "­seems, with the transports into which he and others worked themselves up in his ::hurch. For these, and for it, he could feel nothing but contempt.

He holds St. Paul responsible for traditional, historic Chris­tianity. He contends that St. Paul was an unscrupulous fanat­ic who distorted out of ali rec­ognition the message of Jesus and it is the Pauline misrepre­sentation of the pristine truth which, he says, has come down to us as Christianity.

led, in his view, to a series of monstrous evils in generation after generation. In the name of Christianity, anything and every­thing has been sanctioned which would secure and maintain the power of an elite.

At one point he declares, "We human beings now have the power to exterminate ourselves: this seems to be .the entire sum of our achievement. We have taken this journey and arrived at this place in God's name. This, then, is the best that God (the white God) can do."

No wonder, then, that Elijah Muhammad and his Black Mus­lim movement have such an at­traction for at least some Amer­ican Ne'{roes.

They know what white men have done to them in the name of the 'formers' God. They will, in consequence, opt for the black God preached by Elijah. They have seen what Elijah has suc­ceeded in accomplishing with Negroes who were on the way to being derelicts, human wreckage.

Mr. Baldwin is no follower of, no apologist for the Black Mus­lim movement; in fact, he fore­sees that he and Elijah will be in strenuous opposition to each other.

But he understands the source and the strength of Elijah's ap­peal, and he is solemnly warning the white people of America that the wrongs visited upon the Negro must cease forthwith, else an explosion is inevitable.

Price of Liberation "The price of the liberation

of the white people is the liber­ation of the blacks .- the total liberation, in' the cities, in the towns, before the law, and in the mind." And again, "What it comes down to is this if we, who can scarcely be considered a white nation, persist in thinking of ourselves as one, we condemn ourselves, with the truly white nations to sterility and decay, whereas if we could accept our­selves as we are, we might bring new life to the Western achieve­ments and transform them. The price of this transformation is the unco~ditional freedom of the Negro."

The above gives but a skipping notion of the dEmsel~'-packedar­gument-cum-exhortation of this highly charged and generally very moving piece of writing.

With some of Mr. Baldwin's ideas-for example, as to the ori ­gin, development, and record of Christianity, one dis a g l' e e s strongly. But the point is that he conveys what it is like to be a Negro in our society, and he ex­plains the nature and the pace of the current drive to change that impossible situation at once and totally. We urgently recom­mend a thoughtful reading 0' this book.

New Hampshire Pastor Says Future Pope Offered Mass in Little Church

LINCOLN (NC) - Now it's the proud boast of this pictur­esque White Mountains com­munity - P<>pe Paul VI was here!

Chief chronicler of the 1951 vi:;it is the Pontiff's hour-long host, Father Edward Guay, pas­to:~ of St. Joseph's Church. He's been telling about it and how' the Pope offered Mass in the little wooden church since the weird came that Giovanni Bat­ti~ta Cardinal Montini had been elected to the papal throne.

"The newly elected Pope could speak neither Eng 1 ish nor French at the time, so what little conversation we had was in LCitin," Father Guay related. "To be honest about it, his Latin was a lot better than mine, so we actually didn't say very m'.lch:

~(ants Bible Reading, Prayers in Schools

WASHINGTON (NC)-A res­olution which would permit prayers and Bible reading in the nation's public schools has been introduced in the House by Rep. James J. Quillen of Illinois.

The measure woul-d offset the U.S. Supreme Court decision ba nning such required practices in the schools. The resolution calls for approval by two-thirds of the Senate and House and ratification by three-fourths of the states.

"The Supreme Court's decision is a black mark on the religious life of our country, because I bdieve we ought to have a right to pray 'when we want to pray ar.d where we want to pray and that it should not be unlawful. to read the Bible or talk with God," Quillen said.

20,000 Messages VATICAN CITY (NC) - The

Papal Secretariat of State has received more than 20,000 letters, cables and f\ther messages of congratulation of the election of Pope Paul VI. Vatican Radio said they came from all parts of. the world and from people in ever¥ walk of life.

it," the pastor added. "He thanked me 'for the privilege of celebrating Mass here and left shortly after that. He wanted to do it in a leisurely and un­official way - and he did an awful lot of driving and sight­seeing while he was here."

Leisurely Visit

This happened during the 1951 leisurely three-week visit to the United States and Canada of the Pope, who then was Msgr. Mon­tini, Substitute Papal Secretary of State. The Pontiff made a later, more hurried and more formal visit to the U.S. in 1960 when he was the Cardinal-Arch­bishop of Milan.

The pastor related that Msgr. Montini and his party stayed only l<>ng enough to offer the Mass.

"I offered the group breakfast," Father Guay said, "but they said they were in a hurry to keep an appointment or something. They thanked me and went on their way."

Choice of Name Like Declaration Of Program

VATICAN CITY (NC) . The Dean of the Sacred Col­lege of Cardinals told Pope Paul VI that. his choice of the name Paul seemed !-ike the "declaration of a program.".

Eugene Cardinal Tisserant made the remark during the third obedience, or pledge of loyalty, which, is given to a new pontiff according to custom on the day after his election. Two earlier obediences were made the day of the election.

Cardinal Tisserant was of­fering - also according to cus­t<>m - the good wishes of the cardinals on the eve of the feast of the Pope's baptismal patron, St. John Baptist.

"You gave us great pleasure,· Cardinal Tisserant said, "in the choice of the name· Paul.

"It appeared immediately to us as the declaration of a pro­gram.

"The epistle of yesterday" Mass of the Sacred Heart offered to us the human and real words of the great Apostle (Paul): 'To me, the. very least of all saints, there was given this grace, to announce among the Gentiles the good tidings of the unfatho­mable riches of Christ.'

'Boundless Dedication' "I thought then that Your Hot­

iness, taking over the new task of Servant of the Servants of God, saw with joy the riches oi whieh you had become adminis­trator, the riches which the Church has at its disposal: the doctrine which reveals to all t~

many-faceted wisd<>m of God, the means which allow men of good will to app'roach Him wiiil confidence.

"We are ready, Most Blessed Father - the cardinals residem in Rome and the cardinals scat­tered among the five continente, all united with the Chair oi Peter and with Your person ­to obey and collaborate truly in the designs of Your Holiness. Today's tribute of good wishes is meant to convey our bound­less dedication. Most Blessed Father, a long and happy life!"

ef the country's top Catholie film critics suggested here that earthy foreign movies pose fewer moral problems. that eome 0 s ten sib I y innocuousHollywood products.

"Whenever the deleterious effects of movies become the tGpic of conversation, an inor­4linate amount of emphasis is placed upon the 'gamy' European bnports," noted Moira Walsh, film critic for America magazine, and longtime reviewer for the National Legion of Decency.

But, she added, "as far as 1 em concerned, the potentially most dangerous films are made almost exclusively in Holly­wood. They are the ones skill ­fully: tailored to appeal to teen­agers and giving tacit, uncritical approval to contemporary teen­age mores."

Miss Walsh said the harmful effects of these Hollywood films are "frequently unrecognized by the better-films-council type of movie previewer, as well as by legislators demanding manda­tory film classification."

Choices Risk,. It is precisely because this

~btly dangerous kind of movie usually gets a "clean bill of health for youthful audiences," abe said, that she opposes both governmental film classification and classification by the in­dustry itself.

She conceded that there are intelligent and responsible film producers but added that '~ift 8electing screen material they make one of two choices. Both are risky."

On the one hand, she said, producers can opt for quality ­''but will the public respond to quality?" The alternative, she Nid, is ''to tailor the subject matter and treatment to what is almost inevitably a rather dis­dainful estimate of the tastes &f the undiscerning mass audi­ence."

6 .THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fa~ River-Thurs., Jury oC, 1'6$ The Ecumenical Way The Price ·of Freedom

In the July FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin, .Director ·1. Edgar Hoover makes a point that may seem obvious but He that need to be repeated again and again until its full reality is grasped by every thinking citizen: freedom is not free. .

Just that - but how much· it says and means. Freedom is not free. The freedom that Americans .today enjoy was pur·

chased at a dear price. It was paid for ia blood idm08t lwo centuries ago•. And those who laid dOwn their lives to establish a new .nation in freedom did not. think tlie

.', ..rice excessive for the prize it won - a prize if llOt. for .~. . themselves to enjoy then as their :legaq .~ thoSe whO

'Would follow•. . Ever since reyolutionary daY'S the prize of freedom .

. lias had to be purchased again and again and the price ill always commensurate with the worth of the gOal.

Just a century ago this week the North and &uth locked in bloody battIe and despite all other causes given as bringing about the War between the States the one

., that Lincoln chose to stand on was that. the right C)f all :men to enjoy freedom, no matter what the color of their skin.

Freedom has never been free. And now Director Hoover calls on Americans in this

hour to pay their price for freedom - civic responsibility especially if it costs an effort.

Somehow, as July 4 comes around and men think back on the price paid in years past by Americans for freedom, that price does not seem excessive.

But crime' flourishes and graft swells and evil is uncovered in almost every corner of public life and the public refuses to be aroused .to anger.

Freedom: is never free. If would be sad if Americans waited too long to start paying the price for it. Then it may be no longer available at any price.

Death in Summer Death at any time of the year is sad. Death in the

Summer seems to carry particularly tragic overtones. Because so many Summer deaths - drownings, auto

accidents, boating incidents - seem so unnecessary, the result of a carelessness that should have been foreseen and could have been avoided.

The day that starts out, for someone, as a vacation or a pleasant interlude comes to a harsh close in the screech of brakes, the gasp of pIDiic, the merciful cutting off of pain. ,

Men must realize that they have an obligation before God to take proper care of their own lives and the lives of their neighbors. Carelessness that becomes a danger

,to their life or that of another is a matter of sin. This is a salutary thought to keep in mind through

the Summer.

Touching Aspect A touching aspect of Pope Paul's Coronation Mass

homily was the air of assurance it held out to those not of the Catholic Faith.

The Pope couched his address in language of charity and kindness, language that showed the heart of a father; the desire of a man of God to see unity among all children of God. . Pope Paul very evidently went out of his way not to

give offense but to enable non-Catholics to see in him the one whom they can approach without fear or hesitation, the one willing to reach out to them and make easy the path leading from them to the Church.

In this he is following in the, f~tsteps of the unfor­gettable Pope John who did so much to tear down, in four and one half short years, walls of hostility and separation that had been abuilding, on both sides, for many centuries.

. And he continues to show the world the true role of the Pope - a man who though surrounded by pomp and pageantry is not overwhelmed by these and wishes no one to be frightened off by these either, a universal father who wishes to use his qualities of nature and grace to bring men to Christ, a true "servant of the servants of God."

~rODAY-Mass as on Sunday. "Direct, we beseech you, Lord, thl! course of this world'" *." (~ol1ect). Christians may not have a religious mind and a sec­ulHr mind, a religious conscience and a secular one, side by side. They may have religious activi­ties and secular activities, one mind, one conscience--and that ~ :informed by faith in the living God, that is, religious.

In the United States this na­tional holiday is an important time to pray not only for the na':ion but especially for all re­ligious men and women in it, thHt they may make a dynamic

, contribution to the community and its moral strength.

~roMORROW - St. Anthony Ma,ry Zaecaria, Confessor. Both readings today teach us about that human virtue which is a gift of close conversation with God: Virtue, in order to attain etE,rnal life (Gospel); virtue, in order to offer an example and so save others (First Reading). As we gather at the holy table fOl' Communion, we sing Paul's wc'rds: ,,*.... be imitators of mE~ **.."

1;T. MARY ON SATURDAY. So much are we creatures of time and so firmly are we an­eh'i>red in it, that the liturgy never tires of impressing us with our eternal destiny (First Read­inlO. Today this Old Testament lesson is applied to Mary, mother and first sister of that Saviour who wedded time and eternity: "Earth and heaven are in him reeonciled" (Gradual).

:F 1FT H SUNDAY AFTER PI:NTECOST. The theme of to­day's Mass is one which must penetrate our hearts before we can possibly understand what thl~ Church intends by the re­form and renewal of her public: worship.

The 1958 Instruction of the Hc,ly See on universal participa: tion at Mass is still not obeyed in many places because it has never been understood. We see thl~ key today in the emphasis on the horizontal in worship, on our love of one another, our unity with one another, in wor­ship. Catholic worship can never be understood in terms of the vertical alone, and yet this ia what we have tried and are still tr3'ing to do.

We learn that the Mass is a saerifice, but we do .n<>t learn that it is a sacrificial banquet. We learn that we must love God (Collect), but we do not learn that we must love Him as Church, as community, not just as individuals, and that we love Him in our love for one another (First Reading and Gospel)..

MONDAY - St. Elizabeth, Queen, Widow. Each of the Masses of the "sanctoral cycle," commemorating a saint, is an ex­ample of this horizontal empha­sis in the liturgy. If we stop to think of it, we really cannot blame non-Catholics too much for accusing us of superstition and of tendencies to idolatry and polytheism.

The cult of the saints makes sense only in the context of a real and genuine and loving cult of our brothers. If we reject our brothers, particularly by reject­ing congregational participation in our public worship, we should logically reject the cult of the saints, and make our worship really vertical.

TUESDAY-Mass as on Sun­day. "Be reconciled with thy brother first * ....n (Gospel). For

. this reconciliation. in our hearts is a sine qua non, if the liturgi­cal words and signs of reconcilia­ation at Mass are not to be hypo­critical and meaningless. Sing.. ing and praying together at Mass, sharing the holy Food as a visible, brotherly meal-these are signs telling us that the Christian cannot love God ex­cept in loving his brothers.

WEDNESDAY - The Sevetl Brothers, .Mariyrs, and S8. Ru­fina and Secunda, Virgins, Mar. tyrs. "Here was true, brotherli ­ness," we sing in the Alleluia be­for the Gospel. These ancient martyrs are among our brethren, as is Christ Himself in His humanity. "Whoever does the will of my Father * * is my brother and sister and mother" (Gospel, Communion Hymn). Jesus unites horizontal and ver­tical in our worship. As mediator He leads us to the Father, as second Adam He reconciles us with one another.

British Group Gives $80,400 for Relief

True they did not have the numbers to select from, the brawn, the chosen (and pai<t) coaches - but they did have the necessary spirit. Surely, most waches in planning a victory must give a great part for the future success to "spirit."

The early Church could not compete with the worse of teams. A small band of terrified, cowardly, ignorant men" * * and they were to enlighten and save the world!

However when they were "an filled with the Holy Spirit," what' a difference! "Like an overpowering impulse of divine omnipotence, the Spirit burst in upon the souls of the Apostles and 0 v e r s pre a d the infant Church, marking the beginning of a new and decisive period in the course of the redempt,ion." (Philipon)

'Need' of Men There is an infinite possibility

of how God could have re­deemed the human race. It ill

. only the outpouring love and paternal interest of God that ,bad His Son come to make us Sons. It is only Il throbing and intense .love that had Christ suffer and die before our eyes and thus g,ive us a concrete les.. son of love and the horror of sin.

Of all the men jn the world there were others 'much more couregeoull, much more intel­lectuel, possibly much more holy - than the apostles. Why not start off with perfect one9?

Well, it would have been pos­sible for us to then place a good part 01. the success to their activity account and not on the soH! work of God. Whatever be the complete reason God had, He chose the lowest to confound the wise. .

"For reasons best known to His infinite wisdom, He (Christ) left to His Spirit the fun achievement of the work that His Father had intrusted to Him, even as He' also left a certain mysterious want to His Passion, so that by their personal suf­ferings some of His members could have a special role in the redemption of His mystical body." (Philipon)

'Need' of the Holy Spirit There was no question as to

whether the Apostles needed the Holy Spirit. They surely and absolutely did. Further, the work of the redemption of the human' race was not the exclu­sive work of Christ, and that by God's own design. "All three Divine Persons cooperated 'i. our salvation.' The Father sent His Son; the Word became flesk to die for us; and the Spirit, Whe if; the Spirit of both the Father and of the Son, will finish the· redemptive work ...."

It was the Apostles who first felt the great work of the Holy Spirit. His work in the Church shaH last till the end of time. As in the, Council: the world's greatest intellects are there; the world's keenist administrators are there; the world's most ~

9 Tells Parents· Prepare Older Children _for Baby's Arrival

By Fr. Walter w. Imbiorski Dear Father: ,

I am -expecting my second child in four months. Is there anything I can do to help Julie, who is three, adjust to the new baby. In some families I have seen the older child take a real dislike to the new baby and, in one in­stance, even try to do the baby physical harm. How can I avoid this?

Pam L. Dear Pam,

First of all, stop worrying about It. People have been bringing home second babies for tens of thousands of years. I am lIUre tha~ your good common aense will carry you through without ~rrin!._ litUe Julie'll psyche.·. ,;:..

As _we know, even the very young child has sensitivities and can be deeply affected by the things which go on in the family circle. So, some time spent in preparing Julie for her new brother or sister will be well invested.

Practical Points Remember Julie has been the

center of all your love and at­tention for three years. Now she Is going to be asked to share the .potlight. One wit has said, with some truth, that the coming of a ·new baby is about as shocking to the older child as a husband's announcement to his spouse that he is bringing home a second wife to share the household.

Here are some practical points to consider until the new babr,s place is comfortable established in the family.

If Julie is to be ~ved from her crib or her room, make the change now "because she UI getting bigger" and not because "'the new baby needs it."

Help Bab,. Leam When you tell Julie about the

baby, don't paint unrealistic pie­tures about a playmate. Make lure she knows that the new­born infant will be very tiny. Tell her that it will be quite il while before he can walk ·or talk or do the things she does. By your own enthusiasm let her know that it will be fun to watch and help the baby learn things. .

Try such a simple thing 'as having someone else carry the

. baby into the house when you return from the hospital IJO that you al'e free for a welcoming hug. Letting Julie hold the baby for a few moments, sitting In a big safe chair with a watch­ful adult nearby; can .break the ice. Later try suggesting to visi ­tors that they "speak to Julie first" and let her show them the baby.

If the older child nags for at ­tention, becomes especially or­nery or irritating, begins to act like a baby himself or goes back to bed-wetting, these are signs that he is unsure of his parents' love or care. Extra attention,

. more "grown up" privileges, more time with Mommy ot" Daddy, a toy, or a trip to the park, or just so m e warm cuddling can be very l'eassuring and will probably handle the • ituation.

Develop Understandinc Resentment may be concealed

under behavior that looks just like its opposite. "Julie loves to baby" may mean that she is only hovering anxiously over

Academy Student Wins College Scholarship

WEST HARTFORD (NC) Marlene Basnight, 17, junior at Mount st. Joseph Academy here, is one of 10 high school students who won $6,000 college scholar­ships in a national essay contest.

The winners, who come from eight states and Rabat, Morocco, wrote on the topic, "My Most Unforgettable Teacher." Miss Basnight's subject was Sister Catherine Mary of the acadetn7 faculty. _ '

More than 25,000 entries were received in the contest, the G-J: College Bowl television Pl"Osram, the sponsor announced.

him. Boasting or talking too much, or just being too sweet about him may cover up for angry feelings which she thinks her parents will disapprove.

It is pretty typical for young children to resent, as well as love, the new baby until they figure out just how he fits into their lives AND until they realize he is not a rival but a friend. Feelings of resentment al'e better expressed than buried. Talking about them can help clear the air.

Even somewhat older, school­age !=hildren may show some resentment and "gripe" about the extra trouble or work the new baby causes. A story or two about the time when HE Walt

small and received the same care can coax him to sense a feeling of closeness and can start him to develop under­standing the baby.

Groundwork for Lo,..It,. Parents sometimes concen­

trate on sparing the older child, only to find later that the younger one has felt neglected. Your parental vocation requires the balance of a tightrope walker, without his tenseness plus the imaginative insight of an artist and always wisdom and understanding. Too much pro­tection for either the older child or the ba'by postpones the time when both come to accept each other.

Parents can best. lay the groundwork for future affec­tion and family- loyalty among their children by welcoming the new baby while continuing to cherish and enjoy the older children as warmly as before.

'Our Pope; Too,' Says . .

Protestant Paper OTTAWA (NC) -The head­

line read: "John 'Our Pope' Too." The story under it said: "It was fantastic, really, the way we came to regard him as belong­ing to us. Once when he reCeiVed a delegation of Jewish people he met them with the words 'I am Joseph, your brother,' That" the way he affected most of US."

The tribute to Pope John XXIII was paid in the Observer, pubU­cation of the United Church ·of· Canada and the story was writ ­ten by Rev. Dr. A. C. Forrest, the editor. It was typical of scores of other tributes paid to the late Pope by secular and non­Catholic publications throughou&Canada. .

Faithful to the final advice 01. Pope John, his private secret­tary, Msgr. Loris Capovilla, h. flown to Venice for a visit with his mother. On June I, as tM Pope lay dying, he told the monsignor: "When all this • over, don't forget to go 'see your mother."

Urges Amnesty For Prisoners

CAMBRA! (NC) ..,.... Archbish. op Emile Guerry of Cambrai has called for an amnesty for Frenchmen still in jail for poli ­tical crimes committed during the war in Algeria.

"Amnesty covers the moral and human aspects of order, the only aspects we take up here, in keeping with our spiritual and social mission," the Archbishop said in his archdiocese's offi ­cial bulletin.

"Amnesty should be first of all an act of national reconcili ­ation.

"Frenchmen are divided on the interpretation of the ex­tremely com pie x historical events which culminated 'hi'the independence of Algeria.

"Division among sons of the same country is always an evil, especially when it provokes or m a i n t a ins resentment and hatred. An amnesty should be the occasion for a powerful movement of mutual under­standing, active solidarity and national reconciliation."

ROCHESTER (NC)-The A few years from now, if 16 year-old Susan Sweeney's. dre~ms come tru~, t~ere'll. be Rochester diocese has an­For Parents

MADISON (NC) - A bill to grant a state income tax exemption for children who attend nonpublic schools has been withdrawn by its authors in the State Assembly following an opinion by the attorney gen. eral that the exemption would be unconstitutional.

Additional exemptions rang­ing from $10 to $40 for each child of a taxpayer attending nonpublic schools were proposed in different versions of the bill before the Assembly this session.

Atty. Gen. George Thompson issued an opinion that such ex. emptions would violate' a sec­tion of the Wisconsin Constitu. tion which denies use of state funds for support of religious institutions. He said there would also be a violation of another constitutional provision dealing with reasonable exemptions and deductions.

Sees Duplication The exemption would be un­

reasonable, Thompson said, be. cause taxpayers already receive a deduction for contributions to religious institutions. The ex­emption would be a duplication. of that deduction, he said.

On the religious issue, Thomp­son said the exemption would be an attempt by the Legislature to divert public funds to benefit parochial schools or the religious organizations who operate them.

"The main objective of the proposal is obvious," Thompson said. "It is to render financial support to parochial schools through the use of and at the ex. pense of state finances. It is at ­tempted to be accomplished by according monetary advantage in the payment of state taxes by permitting taxpayers with children who attend such school to reduce their tax payments."

Found Crucifix On' Mt. Everest

LONDON (NC) - A member of the American Everest team, found a crucifix 400 feet below the Himalayan mountain's south summit.

James Whittaker of Redmond, Wash., said that the crucifix was left by an Indian party in 1962.

"I took it to the summit," he eaid, "and still have it now." 'Asked what his feelings were

em reaching the summit, he said: "There are no words for it. I just stood there numb and quiet."

Whittaker flew borne from ,here with three other members of the American team: Luther G. Jerstad of Eugene, Ore.; Barry W. Prather of Ellenburg, Wash.; and Barry C. Bishop of Washington, D.C., who was earried aboard the plane with both his .frostbitten feet heavily, bandaged.

The cross sym­bolizes faith and spirituality, say Isabella officials, while the wreathd e not e s outstanding achievement and the eagle rep­resents loyalty and patriotism.

'Centers of Grace' (:on90 Priest Sees Need to Christianize

African Nation 'From Within' CINCINNATI (NC) - Africa

needs "centers' of grace" where native traditions can be ''Chris-' tianized from within," a Bel­gian 'priest serving in the Cengo said here. , '

Father Bon i f a as Luykx, O. Praem., of the Lovanium Uni­versity in Leopoldville, also said that American Negroes can con­tribu,te' to Africa's spiritual re­newal.

Father Luykx, who was a con­sultor to the preparatory com­mission on the liturgy for the Sec6nd Vatican Council, said he is e!ltablishing a monastery in the Congo as a "center of grace."

Three Congolese, young men are postulants for the monastery, and Father Luykx is seeking young Negro men in the U.S. to join them. .

Has Great R.ole The' ,Norbertine priest, who

will teach this Summer at Con­ception Benedictine Abbey, Con_, ception, Mo., said American Negroes would be particularly fitte(i for monastic life because "'the)' have suffered much, and are l!>oor in spirit."

"It would perhaps be a great sacrifice for a young Negro man to leave the U.S. for the Congo," said Father Luykx in an ad­dreSl! here, "but in spending his life for Africa he would gain much."

He sees the monastery and other foundations to follow it, including cloisters of women, as ,centers "where the African soul and African traditions would be

Christianized_ from the inside, from the heart."

He expressed the conviction that Africa has "a great role to play" in the future of the world and the Church.

The countrf po sse sse s a "deeply religious" spirit, and the African of today "has the BtuH of sanctity," he said.

nounced it is stopping ex­pansion of its 55,598-student school system. It is the second U.S. diocese to take this step.

Auxiliary Bishop Lawrence B. Casey of Rochester said that after September there will he a ban on new Catholic schools and on expansion of existing schools for the immediate future.

The prelate said the main reason was a "critical shortage" of teaching Sisters. The diocese' has a regulation that schools cannot go beyond a ratio of three lay teachers to eight Sis­ters.

The action parallels a decision last summer by the Archdiocese of St. Louis which aho has stopped expansion of its school system.

Bishop Casey's announcement was made in a talk to 184 grad­uates of teacher training pro­grams conducted by the local Confraternity of Christian Doc­trine.

CCD Role Symbolic of the expanded role

visualized for the CCD as child­ren are turned away from Cath­olic schools and sent to public schools, the graduation cere­mony in Sacred Heart Cathedral marked the first time that all CCD trainees were graduated at once.

Bishop Carey said that "the diocesan situation is such, due mainly to a critical shortage of teaching Sisters, that after this September, no new Catholic school will be opened or present school facilities expanded in the immediate future."

The last' new Catholic schOOl to open will be St., Lawrence School in Greece, a northern suburb of Rochester. It will be­gin with the' first and second grades this September.

Cites Catholic Clothing Drive

HARRINGTON PAR K (NC) - Auxiliary Bishop Lawrence Graziano, O.F.M., of Santa Ana, EI Salvador, said that garments allocated to that country in one year through the worldwide relief. agency of U. S. Catholiics provided 140,000 people with three changes of clothing.

The clothing is contributed by U. S. Catholics in the' annual Thanksgiving Clothing Collec­tion sponsored by Catholic Re­lief Services-National Catholic Welfare Conference.

Bishop Graziano, a native of Mot. Vernon, N. Y., heads the Catholic Charities program in El Salvador. He said tha,t none of the country's needs is "more serious than the need for food."

While visiting relatives here in New Jersey the Bishop is also trying to make arrangements for 1\ hot lunch program for 300,000 school children in El Salvador.

Only Meal For many of the children, the

meal they will receive through the Charities and CRS-NCWC programs will be their only sub­stantial meal of the day, the Bishop said.

"Many of our people have nothing more than one-room huts for entire families," the Bishop said. "Except for our par­ish dispensaries and visiting doc. tors, medical care is almost non­existent. Flour sacks are used for clothing. As for the future, these people can look forward to earning maybe 50 cents a day."

He said that coffee provides most, of the income for the country, and all of the wealth is in the hands of a few people. A land reform program is im. practical, he added, because "di. viding up the coffee plantations would knock the country into a tremendous depression."

Jesuit Criticizes R. I. Lawyers

PROVIDENCE (NC) - Father Robert F. Drinan, S.J., dean of the ,Boston College Law School, criticized Rhode Island lawyers for what he said was their fail. ure to work ror a fair housing law in this state.

Speaking to the Pawtucket Bar Association, he contended that Rhode Island real estate men put on the pressure that led to the death of fair housing proposals in the state Legisla­ture.

The priest said that' lawyers had been the nation's leaders from the Revolutionary War to the Civil War. "Now," he said, "we follow status quo."

Predicting that "the anger of the Negro people is coming out," Father Drinan cautioned his

\, listeners: "A very dangeroUi i Summer is coming upon us." '

LAN SIN G (NC) - An 18­member committee of public of-Hcials, educators and adminis­trators has been named by Bish­op Joseph H. Albers of Lansing to assist the Catholic Charities of Michigan in planning and developing long range goals.

Bishop Albers, president of. Catholic Charities of Michigan, said it is hoped that the group will keep the charities organiza­tion "in close touch with changing concepts of social wel­fare in the academic and re­search fields as well as in pro­fessional practice."

Represented on the committee are a state supreme court justice, representatives of Cat hoI i c Charities in six areas of the state, two probate judges, three college professors active in police and social work, the state director of welfare, the director of Michigan's Commission on Aging, the executive secretary of the Michigan Youth Commission and the director of education for tile Michigan AFL-CIOo

Better Attitude Toward Aged

ANN ARBOR (NC)-Relig­lous groups have helped bring about an improved attitude toward the aging, the secretary of the National Conference of Catholic Charities said here.

Msgr. Raymond J. Gallagher told the annual University of Michigan conference on aging that "the pendulum has swung to the middle in attitudes toward older people."

A goal of this year's meeting was to elevate progress made since the first White House Conference on Aging, held in Washington, D.C., in Sept. 1961.

"In 1960 and 1961," Msgr. Gal•• lagher stated "it seemed to the" .~.. "",.:..r;.~ section on" religion for the""'" " .' Washington, D.C., meeting that it was necessary to defend the place of the older person in so­ciety generally as well as in the congregation.

"It did not seem to us that the attitude on the part of the fam­ily, the congregation or society . toward the place of the aging member was in balance. lt would seem, however, that there has been a return of the pendulum from the extremes to the middle path, wherein lies virtue."

Says Missionaries Now Have Task Of Training Native Leaders

FRANKLIN - (NC) -Catholie missionaries working in' ,Africa have the job of teaching natives to assume the responsibilities of leadership, the assistant to the Mother General of the White

. Sisters said here in Pennsylva­.nia. ,

Mother Germaine-Marie, on a six-weeks' visit to the U. S., said: "There was a time when we had the responsibility. Now we must still work with the people of Africa, but they will be the leaders."

Citing an example, she said there is a hospital in Navarongo,

are in Rome, is almost always on the road. In recent trips to Africa, she visited Uganda, the Congo, Kenya, Mali, the Upper Volta, Guinea and Ghana.

"There is a great demand for work to be done in Africa-in the schools, the hospitals, the social cepters, everywhere," she said. "We have to be refusing continually the pleas of the bishops for help because we have no one.

"The greatest thing the United 'Stat~s cail.'give ,isvocatiiJl1s," she stilted.

Extraordinary M'eans Not Morally Required in 'Hopeless' Cases

ATLANTIC CITY (NC)-Aux­Mary Bishop Fulton J. Sheen of New York said here no moral difficulty is involved if "extra­OI'dinary" medical means are not ased to keep a terminal1ly ill person alive.

"Particularly If the family doesn't ask for such measures," there is no need to use them to prolong the final hours of life in a case regarded as hopeless, the Bishop said at a joint press conference.

Dr. Edward R. Rynearson of the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., was the other person giv­ing his views at the conference. lie and Bishop Sheen took part in a special program on physi. eian-clergy relationships at the American Medical Association eonvention here.

Dr. Rynearson said that when­ever possible he would "fight"­'the use of "extraordinary means" , to keep alive so-called hopeless cases. He referred to the use: of tubes, oxygen and special equip­ment in keeping the terminally ill patient alive.

Bishop Sheen said: "If the doc­tor told me that extraordinary means would be needed and I was lying with a body full of

tubes to keep me alive, I would ask him to take them out. There is no moral difficulty in such a situation." .

"Here we are dealing with a medical problem," the Bishop added, explaining that in such cases he would "counsel the family to take the advice of the doctor.N

He and Dr. Rynearson stressed ~at their opinions had nothing to do with,euthanasia, the dellb. er-ate taking of life in so-called mercy killin~.

In an address to an interna­tional congresa of anesthesiolo­gists, Pope Pius XII said on Nov. 24, 1957: "Natural reason and Christian morals say that man ***has the right and the duty in case of serious illness to take the necessary treatment for the . preservation of life and health .. •• .' . -'

"But normally one is held to use .only ordinary means· •• that is to say, means that do not involve any grave burden for oneself or another. A more strict obligation would be too burden­some for most men and would render the attainment of the higher, more important good too difficult."

Urges Catholic Laymen Guide Public Opinion on School Aid

LOUISVILLE (NC)-A prom­inent Pennsylvania attoi-ney be­lieves the Catholic laym,an is the key to the change in public opinion on the question of fed­eral aid to private and parochial schools.

William B. Ball, general coun­sel of the PennsYlvania Catholic Welfare Committee, said in an interview here that change in .public opinion on the federal aid to education issue is coming about "because we Catholics have been willing increasingly to enter into discussion with non-Catholics on these and other eivic issues which have a reli. ligious tie."

Schools Misunderstood Catholic schools are generally

misunderstood by non-Catholics through lack of knowledge and "inherited fears," .he said" and Catholics themselves are the key to enlightenment.

Rights Leader Sees 'lmportant Fight'

WASHINGTON (NC) ,- A Catholic civil rights leader, one of nearly 30 who met with Presi. dent Kennedy and other top administration figures' on the current racial crisis, summed up the meeting's tone' ia 'these words:

"We are in a very important fight and we must exert our­selves to the utmost."

This evaluation was given by George K. Hunton, one of the founders of the New York Cath­olic Interracial Council and currently a consultant to the 'council, after he and 28 other civil rights leaders met at the White House with the President, Vice-President Lyndon Johnston and Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy.

The idea of the "wall of sepa­ration of Church and State" is' not referred to in the Constitu­tion and is not the basic prob­lem in parochial school aid, Ball believes. He explained how the "constitutional issue, when you look at it, vanishes."

The First Amendment, so often used for support of Church-State issues, says only that "Congress shall'make no law respecting an establishment of religion or pro­hibiting the free exercise there­of •••"

Legal Meaninlr A 1961 decision of the Su.

preme Court, the attorney point­ed out, has defined the legal meaning of "religion," and ex­pands its definition to include nontheistic religion (secular hu. manism and ethical culture). The Pennsylvania attorney rea.

sons that if secular humanism is backed in the public schools, the public dollar "can also be used to help support schools where other religions are pre­ferred."

·If Federal aid were approved for all schools, Ball does not be­lieve a "proliferation of private religious achools would break out, because it takes a tremen­doU$ number of teachers, facil. ities, money and tradition, and the requirements are rugged."

Steel Industry, Labor' Set Example for Bargaining

By Msgr. George G. Higgins . Director, 'NCWC Social Action Department

In April 1962, the U.S. Steel Corporation forced a showdown with the President of the United States over

. the issue of prices - and lived to rue the day. The story is recounted, objectively and in detail, by Ray Hoopes in • new book, "The Steel Crisis: 72 Hours That Shook The Nation" (The John Day Company, New York). Mr. Hoopes concludes that "the com­pany executives responsible for

·the decision .anade a serious MiscalCU­lation when they decided to • • • raise prices .cross the board; the mis­ealculation was in thinking that 4lhe rest of the industry was in the same bind and would join in as it had in the past."

That was a minor mIstake, however, compared to U. S. Steel's almost incredibly naive teilure to anticipate the inten­elt)' of President Kennedy's re­ection to its proposed price. in­Cl'ease and to the timing and manner in which it was an­Ilounced.

Stands on Merits According to Mr. Hoopes, if

Roger Blough (president of U. S. Steel) and his colleagues had been paying attention to public ~airs and had had a better lInderstanding of human emo­tions they "should have been able to foresee the President's eeaction." .

It is possible that Mr. Hoopes' analysis of this controversy may have to be revised if and when the archives of the White House end of U. S .. Steel are opened to historians. Meanwhile it can stand on its merits as an impar­tial and carefully researched etudy of a crisis which rocked the nation a year ago.

Incidentally it can be checked for accuracy by comparing it with another recent book on the same subject: "Steel and the Presidency-1962" by Grant Mc­Connell (W. W. Norton & Co., New York).

No Scars The recent collective bargain­

ing agreement between the steel industry and the UnIted Steel­workers of America seems to i.n­dicate that neither the steel strike of 1959 nor U. S. Steel's quarrel with the White House in 1962 has lef.tany permanent scars. •

At the end of the 1959 strike and again at the conclusion of U. S. Steel's fight with the Pres­ident the atmosphere was so charged with bitterness that the future of collective bargaining in the steel industry appeared to be anything but encouraging.

Fortunately the prophets of doom have'been overly pessimis­tic. The Steelworkers' recent eontract with the industry, which was negotiated with9ut even the implied. threat of a strike, rep­resents a major' turning point in the history of collective bargain­ing.

It will undoubtedly help to restore ·the nation's confidence In the effectiveness of collec­tive bargaining as the normal means of solving even the most d iff i cui t labor-management problems.

Partial Answer Among the provisions in the

new steel contract is one that may turn out to be at least a partial answer to the problem

Aid Peruvian See BORDEAUX (NC) - South­

western France's Diocese of La Rochelle has adopted a mission­ary See in Peru as its "twin," pr{)mising both spiritual and material aid. The See in Peru is the mountainous Prelature Nul­lius of Ayaviri, which has about 168,000 baptized Catholics in its total population of 170,000.

of technological ·unemployment in the industry-i. e., unemploy­ment resulting ·from automation.

The new contract gives half of the industry's hourly employees-those with the most seniority at each of the 11 major steel companies-a three-month vacation every five' years. Those lacking seniority to qualify for this plan will later get up to three extra weeks vacation every. five years.

Bnman Relations Committee Technically speaking, the last

(1960) collective bargaining contract in the !lteel industry had no formal expiration date, but it could have been reopened on May 1 of this year, with the union having the right to strike 90 days thereaftel·.

To their credit, however, the two parties b.egan to bargain in January - approximately seven months before there could have been even the possibility of a strike. They carried on negotia­tions through the Human Rela­tions Committee which had been established under the terms of the 1960 contract.

Both management and union officials in the steel industry have nothing but praise for this Committee. AccOl'ding to R Conrad Cooper, vice-president of U. S. Steel, the Human Relations Committee "enabled the parties to discuss the issues calmly and reasonably without the pressure of a fixed deadline." He called the Committee's work "a sig­nificant development for collec­tive bargaining."

Future Seeure Similarly, David J. McDonald,

president of the United Steel­workers of America, stated that· the recent steel settlement "proves the permanent worth" of the committee idea, and dis. proves skeptics who said the in­dustry couldn't bargain without a strike threat.

Mr. McDonald is entitled to crow about the success of the Human Relations Committee, for· at the time of its establishment in 1960 many observers were in­clined to dismiss the Committee as little more than window dressing.

In the light of the recent steel settlement, the future of collec­tive bargaining seems now se­cure. Indeed, we may be on the threshold of a new era-one in which the strike and the lockout will gradually be replaced' by long term labor-management cooperation.

This depends· on the willing­ness of other major corporations and unions to follow the exam•. pIe of the steel industry and the Uni,ted Steelworkers of America.

Urges Proclamation On Captive Nations

WASHINGTON (NC) - The National Captive Nations Com­mitteee, Inc., has charged that the government seeks to play down the Captive Nations Week Observance, scheduled this year from July 14 to 20.

Lev E. Dobriansky, chairman of the committee and professor of economics at Georgetown, said he and others had appealed to President Kennedy for an early presidential proclamation of the week, but was told "estab­lished procedure" would be fol­lowed for the fifth annual week.

Dobriansky said in a state­• ment this means the proclama­

tion will be issued late on the Friday afternoon before the week begins and "submerged by some chosen major news items." He said that this created the im­pression that "our government seeks to pIa. down the week for fear of how Khrushchev and his puppets would react."

Church Grows in Vietnam SAIGON (NC) - The Church

grows in Vietnam in spite of guerilla warfare and other troubles. • -

For example: Seventy-two converts received

Baptism and Confirmation on Tuesday afternoon of Pente­cost week in Sacred Heart church in the Giadinh section of Saigon. The 72 comprised 17 men, 15 women, 20 girls and 20 children. Five priests baptized them. Archbishop Paul Nguyen van Binh of Saigon confirmed them. I

Were these the converts of the

whole year. grouped· ·for 'bap­tism 01' one occasion?

"No,". one of the priests ex­plained. "We have three or four groups like this in the parish during the year."

Sacred Heart parish, Giadinh, has 12,000 parishioners but only two resident priests. It has 32 praesidia of the Legion of Mar)'. however, and a school with 1,500 pupils. The tuition fee is held down to a minimum, but it still means a. sacrifice for working class parents to keep their chil ­dren in the Catholic school.·

The youthful parish priest, Father Anthony Manh, a native of Saigon, is one of three priest brothers.

Pope Orders Special Dinner For Convicts

VATICAN CITY (NC) - Pope Paul VI ordered a special Sun­day dinner for all Italy's convicts and special desserts for thou­sands of sick children to mark his coronation.

Vatican Radio said that the Pope gave instructions that funds be provided so that all jails in Italy could have a special banquet, on coronation day for their prisoners. At' the same time, the Pope ordered special desserts served to the children in Rome's Bambino Gesu hos­pital and to all the crippled children who are in hospitals in Rome, Milan, Pessano--a small town near Milan-and In­verigo near Como.

The Pope's act recalled Pope John XXIII's similar concern for prisoners and sick children. During Christmastime in 1958, the first year of his reign, Pope John visited Rome's Regina CoeH prison and Bambino Gesu hospital.

Asks New Laws Cites Need of Legislation to Prote~t

Citiz~ns From Smut, Propaganda WASHINGTON (NC) - New

legislation is needed to protect citizens from unwanted ob­scenity and propaganda in the mails, .the House postal opera­tions subcommittee was told here.

Legislation for this purpose was endorsed by Charles H, Keating, Jr., cochairmaI! and general counsel of Citizens for Decent Literature, Cincinnati, in testimony before the sub­committee.

Keating said legislation along these lines would protect "the sanctity of the home" and pre­vent its being "invaded by filth peddlers."

The hearings were being held to consider several similar bills (H.R. 319, 142, 5018 and 5522) which would permit the reci­pient of unsolicited offensive mail matter to demand that his name be removed from the sender's mailing list. A sender who failed to comply would face the loss of his mailing permits.

One version of the legislation would apply only to obscene material and communist propa­ganda. Another would extend to so-called "junk mail" as well. • Rep. Morris K. Udall of Ari­

zona, sponsor of one of the bills, presided over the hearings. In

a preliminary statement Udall emphasized that the subcommit­tee was seeking to avoid "any label of censorship." But he ex­pressed the conviction that "ad­ditional legislation * * * is neces­sary" to protect the public from offensive material in the mails.

Part of Home Udall said the bills under con­

sideration would avoid setting up any government agency as a censor but would leave it to individual citizens to decide what they did or did not want sent them in the mails.

Rep. Glenn Cunningham of Nebraska, sponsor of another of the bills, declared that "mil­lions of citizens are deeply con­cerned over this problem of obscenity."

"A man's home is his castle, and a mail box is "Oart of the home," Cunningham- said.

Non-Catholic Clergy To Attend Retreat

FAULKNER (NC) - Bishop William G. Connare of Greens­burg, Pa., will conduct the sec­ond annual retreat to be held at Loyola-on-Potomic retreat house here in Maryland for non-Cath­olic clergymen.

Denominations represented last

State Rep. Edwin D. Eshlemaa of Lancaster, who is chairman of the House Education Com­mittee, said his mail volume has increased "tremendously" in recent weeks as a result of Cath. olic interest in House bill 1018.

The legislator said the De­partment of Public Instruction estimated it would cost an addi­tional $6,300,000 to furnish tax­paid transportation to parochial and other nonpublic school stu­dents. He said this was based on approximately 575,000 non­public school students - 35 pel' cent - requiring transportatiOll at an average cost of $29.27 pel' student..

Cost Obstacle

"I don't see the $6 millioa available, so how can we seri ­ously consider the bill?" Eshle­man said. He added that be might be in favor of anoth.­House biM which' would allow local school districts to work out transportation agreements with Catholic schools on a cost-shared basis.

"I'd say if there is no cost in­volved it would remove the biggest obstacle," said the legi., lator. "But I haven't talked to the front office" - meanm, Gov. William W. Scranton.

Eshleman said the CathoDe interest in House bill 1018 begaa mounting after Archbishop JOM Krol of Philadelphia sent a lettel' to his pastors urging their sup.. port of the measure. Eshlema. said that now Catholic pastor. throughout the state have been urging parishioners to write the Education Committee recom­mending passage of the bill and that organizations like Holy Name Societies, the Knights OlE Columbus, the Catholic Daug~

Iowa Methodists Reaffirm Stand On Bus Rides

FORT DODGE (NC) The 154,OOO-member North Iowa Methodist Conference" reaffirmed its opposition to transportaiion of parochial school students in public school buses.

Adopted without discussion at the conclusion of a five-day meeting, the resolution said: "The Methodist church desires to maintain the separation of Church and State * * * (it) is opposed to any factor which might tend to weaken the pUb­lic school system."

"Parochial students are not being denied any rights whatso­ever inasmuch as the public sc?ooIs ar~ open to all, along WIth pubhc transportation for the students attending public schools," the resolution said.

"The parochial student has made the choice of attending the parochial school to obtain the benefits there rather than attend the public school with its attendant benefits," the resolu­tion said.

Governor in Favor The right of parents ''to

choose the form of education their children should be given" is recognized by Methodists the resolution continued, and '''our position" on bus transportation "should not be so construed" as voicing opposition to parochial school education. The resolution noted that a proposal for public school bus transportation of parochial school students was lost in the 1963 Legislature.

Gov. Harold Hughes, a Meth­odist, in his inaugural address last January advocated that pupils atte~ding parochial schools . should be furnished transportation on public school buSes.

Ruling Favors Public Help, To Private School Pupils

This analysis of the U.S. Supreme Court's recent ruling­llpholding the right of a member of a religious sect to receive public welfare benefits without surrendering her right of religious freedom was prepared by George E. Reed, associate director of the Legal Department National Catholic Welfare Conference, and an authority on the question of Church-State relations in constitutional law.

The U.S. Supreme Court has given parents of parochial schOOl students a strong new argument to U8e in their ef­forts to win equal treatment for their children in the dis­tribution of public welfare benefits. Overshadowed some­what by the court's ruling the same day, June 17,

barring public school prayer and Bible reading, the deci­sion in the case of Sherbert v. Verner may nevertheless have a substantial bearing on the whole 'question of public aid for children in parochial schools.

In the Sherbert case, a mem­ber of the Seventh Day Adven­tist Church was discharged by a South Carolina employer be­cause she would not work on Saturd,ay, the sabbath day of her faith. She then filed for un­employment compensation un­del' the state law.

The statute provides that to be eligible for benefits a claim­ant must be "able to work, and available for work." It further states that a claimant is ineli ­'gible for benefits "if he has failed without good cause to accept available suitable work when offered him by the unem­ployment officer or by the em­ployer."

The South Carolina Employ­rnent Security Commission found that the appellant's self-imposed restrictions _ specifically, her refusal to work on Saturday _ constituted a voluntary termina­tion of employment which made her unavailable for work. Con­sequently, it held that she was not entitled to unemployment compensation.

State Court in Error This ruling was supported by

the Supreme Court of South Carolina, which rejected the contention that the statute denied the appellant her right to the free exercise of her re­ligion as guaranteed under the First Amendment. (This amend­ment states that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or pro_ hibiting the free exercise there­of.")

The U.S. Supreme Court, by a '1-2 margin, held that the South Carolina court was in error and reversed the judgment. Justice William J. Brennan, Jr., who wrote the majority opinion, re­lied on the school bus transpor­tation case of Everson v. Board of Education. In that case, de­cided in 1947, the Supreme Court had upheld a New Jersey law under which the state paid the cost of transporting parochial school students to and from school.

Reaffirms Principle Applying the principles of the

Everson ruling to the Sherbert case, Justice Brennan stated:

"This holding but reaffirms a principle that we announced a decade and a half ago, namely that no state may 'exclude indio vidual Catholics, Lutherans, Mo. hammedans, Baptists, Jews, Methodists, non-believers, Pres­byterians, or the members of any other faith, because of their faith, or lack of it, from receiv­ing the benefits of public weI.

City Solicitor Backs Private School Prayer

BALTIMORE (NC) - City Solicitor Francis B. Burch has said that a period of private de­v{)tion or of pre-school prayer would not violate the Supreme Court's recent decision.

Burch's opinion was sent to members of the board of educa­tion in this city. One of the two cases on which the high court outlawed Bible reading and the Lord's Prayer in public schools began here.

, fare legislation,' Everson v Board of Education." '

This language, which is con­sistently and con v e n i e n t I Y ignored by those opposing trans­portation of children to church­related schools or participation in Federal aid programs, is given renewed vigor and currency by the court's decision in the South Carolina case. The language in the context of the Sherbert case is for t u ito u sly made more meaningful at a time when a number of states are considering school bus legislation.

Religious Right Just as the Seventh Day Ad­

ventist could not be con­scientiously forced to "choose between following the precepts of her religion and forfeiting benefits," ,so it logically can be argued that parents who wish to have their children transported to parochial schools may not be denied this "benefit or, privi­lege."

Withholding of transportation services is substantially the same as withholding of unemployment benefits. In each case the with­holding is related to the exer­cise of a religious right protected by the First Amendment.

Actually, the transportation case is stronger for the child attends school in compliance with the compulsory education law, in addition to the parental choice, where his studies con­tribute to the public benef,it of the whole community.

Asserts General Strike Justified

GEORGETOWN (NC) -The general strike which has gripped British Guiana f{)r eight weeks has been declared a just strike by the Catholic Standard news­paper.

The paper itself has not been published since the strike be· gan, but was given permission by the Trades Union Council to bring out two special issues on the occasion of Pope John's death.

The news,paper said that the general strike which has gripped the self governing South Ameri­can country for eight weeks is a protest by the unions against a bill they consider an attempt to destr{)y the free union move­ment.

The strike is against tlle leftist government of Premier Cheddi Jagan. It has led to widespread hardship and has accentuated r-acial unrest between Negroes

, and East Indians, the two main population groups. There is no sign yet of either side yielding.

Court Refuses Draft Conviction Appeal

WASHINGTON (NC) - The U. S. Supreme Court has refused to review the conviction of a Jehovah's Witness sentenced to three years in jail for refusing to submit to induction into the armed forces.

The high court did not com­ment on its action in dismissing the appeal by Jan Emil Donato of Glendale, Calif., who was seeking review of a judgment against him by the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

Donato was seeking the status of a conscientious objector on religious grounds. His draft board refused him such status after he said he would not do civilian work as a conscientious objector if assi~ned to it.

Shriver Deplores Extremist Views On Separation

NEW YORK (NC) Peace Corps Director R. Sar­gent Shriver declared here that separation of Church and State does not mean "the divorce of spiritual values from secular affairs."

Those who read into the Con. stitution "a wall of hostility and distrust," he told 1,502 members of Fordham University's !l8th graduating class, are "blind to the spiritual mainstream of American life."

"Shriver called for the kind of brotherhood exemplified by the late Pope John XXIII.,

He called the murder of Med. gar W. Evers, Negro integra. tionist in Jackson, Mississippi, an example of the "moral blind. ness" of Americans in race re. tions.

Shriver, who was awarded all honorary doctor' of laws degree from the Jesuit university, said there is great need fur coopera­tion in attacking social prob. lems.

'Strongest Weapon' "For the state to deprive itself

of the support of religious belief and organization is to enter the battle for social justice without our strongest weapon-the spir. itual beliefs from which social action springs," he declared.

Shriver also voiced a plea for more Catholic college graduates to join the Peace Corps either as volunteers or staff members.

Bishop Walter W. Curtis of Brid'geport, Conn., and Sister Mary Ber.igna, a bHnd nun who teaches blind children, were among those who were awarded honorary degrees.
