.Moslem-Christian Relations To Highlight Papal Meeting
ISTANBUL (NC)-Ecumenical Orthodox Patriarch Athenagoras I announced that the question of IslamicChristian dialogue would have an important place in his conversations with Pope Paul VI in a meeting at the Vatican.
The Patriarch explained that he would set out .on a, trip in
.September and would terminate :at the Vatican so:rrtetlme:in mid.November. . . ',; , .
In a press' conference, the , Patriarch said (he wouid go first ;' to Moscow to ':Visiblhissian: Or
thodox Patriarch' Alexius' of Moscow and' All, Russia. Afterwards, he will visit theOrthodox patriarchs of Rumania, Bulgaria and Serbia.
Speaking of his visit to the Vatican, the Patriarch said, "Between Islam and Christianity exists a fundamental community in faith and, hope in God. Very soon Christians are going to become engaged with Moslems in the dialogue that they are now pursuing among themselves for the unity of all believers and the reign of peace on earth. '
"I was born in a village of which 50 per cent of the inhabitants were Christians and the other 50 were Moslems," the Patriarch concluded. "Christians

(NG)-A Long Island parish has dec~ded to build a religious education center instead of a parochial school. .
,Only lO'per ~ent of the parish supported the idea of 'building
,a ,'Parochial school, according to a poll in the 600-family parifih. M<lst people mentioned' their satisfaction with the local public schools, and their concern f<lr rising taxes and the 'high cost erecting and maintaining a parochial school as reasons for their lack of enthusiasm.
The religious education center will" teach pupils of every age, and will include facilities for sports, large meetings and extra Masses during the Summerm~>nths, when city-dwellers hit the area's beaches.
Msgr. James J. Griffin, pastor, said he thought there were advantages to the. plan, including
'the greater ability of the parish to meet the needs of the whole parish, rather than only those of parochial school children.
He also said that he thinks the plan is right for lit

Asserts Co~Responsibility Chief' Legacy of Vatican II

Cardinal Suenens said this co- among 'thos'e of divergent responsibility in the Church is schools and trends, the cardinal found at several levels: Co-re- predicted. He said dialogue sponsibility of the bishops with a m 0 n g various theological the Pope, of bishops among ,schools and through inter-unithemselves, of bishops and . versity conferences, could perpriests, of clergy and laity, .of service.
Definite Duties The idea of the bishops' co
responsibility among themselves emerged strongly during the council, "which was itself a constant exercise of that co-responsibility," Cardinal Suenens said.
He noted that episcopal conferences existed in' some countrie~ even before the council "but for the most part these had
. n<> definite status. "By giving them defl'nl'te
duties to accomplish, the councl'l gave them new impetus, and thereby opened the way to a very b,road decentralization in the Church."
·Moreover, the episcopal conferences have not halted at national boundaries, and Pope P au1 VI, III setting up the synod. 0f b'IShops, has attempted 10' p1ace on a perman'ent footing the 'dialogue between "center

Two Forms for' Laity Vatican 11, oowever, did riot
succeed in· bringing the co-responsibility of the laity into play 'I . I • . !
on a very large scale. The cal' dinal attributed this failure to the fact that "the theology of the laity has' not yet reached its maturity." .
Yet two forms of co-responsibility for the laity are being institutionalized in several countri~s/ Cardinai 'S\lenens noted. At :the. parish le"el, there is the parish' .council, artd at the diocesan l~vel, pastoral councils as su·ggis.ted by the Vatican council
form a "priceless service" in the pastoral domain.
Texts Toned Down J.t would also serve to create
a harmony in the Church that would best prepare the way fal' the decisions of the magisterium, Cardinal Suenens said.
Earlier, the Belgian cardinal remarked that during the preparation of the final decrees of the Vatican council, certain texts had to be toned down in order to gain as wide support as possible' among Council Fathers. One unfortunate result of this was that certain texts lost their forcefulness and failed to express the underlying thought of the council majority, he said.
It will be the task of tomorrow's hist<lrians-and perhaps of a new Vatican council-to disentangle the central affirmations of the Vatican II ,documents from "interpolations and embellishments."

VICTORIA (NC) - While Americans are busy discussing cures for social illnesses which have caused scores- of riots in the nation's cities this Summer, Bishop Remi DeRoo of Victoria has asked local officials to take steps to head off possible disorders in his city.
In a letter to city officials, he called for a series of open fo·rums to discuss causes of "restlessness and tension."
"Unless some effort Is deliberately made to remove friction and misunderstanding, the bit terness . and strife will become eV1!fl worse," he said.

OTTAWA (NC) - A call Dorothy Mitehell Eastman On School Cost~ fur Canadian families in meeting their economic lileeds was voiced by Cana~()'s Catholic bishops in a Labor lJ)ay statement.
"The last general census indicated that more than 50 per cent ()f the heads of families included lin Canada's work force earned Ress than $4,000 annually," the atatement noted.
Among specific recommmenriiations to "facilitate the imlJti"9vement of the lot of those families now at an economic <iii~advantage in our country," ttt~, bishops called for:
Encouragement to the development of family associations llnd movements.
"Establishment within the government of agencies to deal spe~ifIcally with the family, with representatives of family organhations invited to participate in ehese institutions.

·'"Since it is through the fam~,. that men become part of soeiety, a family which is handi03Pped economically is unable to participate fully in social life lltld runs the risk of providing (jOCiety with marginal and second-rate citizens," the statement ooid.
Many D.f the economic probRems of families, the statement ",oted, are caused by changes, trends or activities in society at large.
"If families are to provide members for society, should so,<uety not assure families the conditions necessary for a qualaty of family life free from tenGions and characterized by economic security and stability?" the bishops asked.
There is need for legislation which helps meet the needs of the family at different stages of development, the statement said.
Besides calling for support of' lf~milies, the statement acknowledged "the steps now being (laken to protect consumers and eo provide individual Canadians with better advice on how to liipend their money."

Amendment Repeal Pleases CEF Head
NEW YORK (NC)-The exeeutive director of the New York State Federation, Citizens for Educational Freedom, hailed the action of the State Constitutional Convention in voting to repeal the so-called "Blaine Amendment" which blocked attempts 00 aid children in church-related IiChools.
"This was a vote for fairness in education for all children and reflected • . . awareness of the acute need for attaining educational excellence for aU children in the Empire State," said Thomas A. Gibbons. "It shows their deep concern for maximum development of our precious IJuunan Iresourees."
Convention delegates voted overhelmingly against retaining "Blaine" in the state's new contJt!tution. The controversiSI amendment was vigorously opJI)osed by Citizens for Educational Freedom and by spokes!!'!len for Catholic education.

6 THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs. Aug. 31, 1967
Hippies' -- . '. Reaoin'g ,about' the hip~ies makes fasdnating reading,
indeed. These young people - mostly in the twenties - have
withdrawn from life. They dress and act as they please, they live in the security of a like group where they are ~ccepted as they are, where they are called upon to make no effort, to meet no standards, to f'ace no chall~nges.
They neither toil nor spin-nor wash, either, as a matter of fact. .
Almost every person growing· up and called upon to face life is tempted along these lines----to withdraw from the harsh facts of everyday living and to seek an island paradise where he can drift along without tension.
The hippies just go out and succumb to the temptation.
Sociologists and family life experts have taken a long and detailed look at the hippies.
They find that these YOllng people were ,brought up in an environment characterized by three elements - an affluent society, permissiveness at home,and parents who gave them that which they wanted (things) rather than what they needed (people).
When people are brought up in compara,tive affluence, the idea of sacrifice remains irvthe realm of theory rather than bei~g a fact in their lives. They simply don't know how to sacrifice and while they talk a great deal a-bout love and' brotherhood and kindness and charity they don't see that this usually implies personal forgetfulness, work, accepting responsibility, meeting challenges. The hippie talks
-of love, the Papal Volunteer or Peace Corps worker demonstrates it by involvement. .
The. permissive attitude that has prevailed in the nation since World War II is reflected in .'many persons who were allowed to do as they pleased. Such freedom and liberty can easily forget others and can become a way of life-do as you please· and too bad what others think. The ,bippie calls this being himself or being honest or rejecting phoniness - the end result is a selfishness that fails to. consider the needs and wants of others, a self-serving aJttitude that forgets the human family. a self-centeredness that is childish in its deman<;ls and expressions.
. In all too many tragic cases, the hippie was brought up in a family where there was this affluence, this permissiveness, where his mother and father gave him what he wanted-things, a· car, money-but not what he neededthem, security and affection and reassurance. And so now he is seeking what he never got-the security of living with a group that accepts him f~r what he is and as he is with his strengths and weaknesses. These people talk to . bim of love and affection and seem to care for him and that 'is a new experience and a pleasing one. They tell him that he is right, genuine, honest, and this is a reassurance that he never got from his parents who subs-tituted things for themselves in his life.
The hippie reaction to an this is to reject every and all symbols of authority, to look with suspicion andhostil ity on those older - an oedipus reaction, to assume that his is the only honest life and all other people are hypocrites and phonies, to be dictatorial and whimsical in his prejudices and judgements.
The hippie is. a person who has rejected life rather than face up to the challenge of meeting it, of changing it where it needs to be changed and reinforcing what in it is good. Surrender is always easy, of. course. But it is not ihe expression of maturity. '
,The' saving grace is that, for tl,e most .part,. hippi¢s . are gentle people. They are also good teacherS' and by obeerving them parents can learn whi1t their children can easily 'be if given only what they want and not what they need from these same parents.

and' stand on that side of society where you don't even' eXist, and you see how you would face the fact of racism," in this country.
The speaker was Michael A. Gaines, executive ·director of the Mayor's Commission on Human Relations here. His audience included some 120 Catholics from Ascension parish on the city's near northside, scene of violence in mid-July.
Gaines, by his own description is "angry, cynical and distressed over the community, the nation and the world." He wrote off ihis Summer's violence in American urban centers "as a prelude to what might happen if full scale racial war" erupts.
Another speaker, Louis H. Ervin, executive director of the city's Fair Employment Practices Committee (FEPC), did not see the likelihood of war because we (the Negroes) "just. don't have the training of, armaments to fight a racial war."
Ervin said all the Negro really wants has already been expressed by Thurgood Marshall, newly appointed United States Supreme Court justice. He quoted the justice: "We want to be just as dumb as the dumbest whites, as lazy as the laziest whites * * as filthy as the filth", iest whites * * *"
Ervin agreed with Marshall in noting that were Negroes able to bridge the inequality gap in all areas of American life, "we still 'can't get away from' the color scheme.';

Study Group Continued 'from Page Five
work since June. Rev. William Norton who is on the Holy'Orders committee, says his oommittee is making a study in depth of the role of the priest in light of Vatican II.
Like the other committees, his is a fact-finding group. This month members will interview Peace Corps officials to investi gate some of their methods of recruiting young people, since one of their main efforts will be a search for WaYS to increase vocations to the priesthood.
They will confer this month, too, with public school officials and high. scllool guidance counselors.
I Fr. Norton observes, "We hope to establish days of recollection periodically, with conferences givell. ~y our own diocesan priests."
The committee on matrimony has been meeting almost every week since June, according· to one of its members, Rev. Thomas Lopes. Members will go to Boston this month to consult with Msgr. Joseph T. :Alves, head' of the Family Counseling 'Bureau
,of the Archdiocese of &ston. They will also go on a fact-find

..~. NEW HAIR STYLES
From Ella Cinders' to Shirley Temple in ten easy steps, or just' how many, steps it takes· your beautician to. perman'eni you into' • curly top. 'As .Urlusual as it maY5eem to see' curls suddenly sprout from' heads that' only ,yes- . terday were using Straighteners, fashion is as, fickle as women and as women we learn to fol;' low its dictates. ':S'ms doesn't mean that'ev.ery woman, regardless 'Of age or shape of face, should go around looking 1 ike Topsy; but the new trend in hairdos is toward more curls and shaping and the smart woman will adapt it (wfth the help of her hairdresser) to her own look. ,
Many of the models who are introducing this new Grecian curl type .of hairdo look as if they took the rollers out of.their hair and forgot to brush and tease it. This is quite a departure from the smooth look that has been in vogue for the past few years. Vidal Sassoon first introduced the curly look this past Winter when he cut his model's hair in what he .called a Greek Boy. The look became so popular that this .season short curly wigs are being stressed for gals Who don~t want ·to cut their tresses, yet like the carefree look of short hair for day wear.
Fans Stm In,
If you've just invested in a fall, you nee,dn't be discouraged, for the look for dressy occasions is still a lot of hair, only instead of just hanging straight down. the back it will curl and curve. For those who have' invested in hairpieces it. would pay you to learn to set them yourself.
The cost of having falls and wiglets set is quite high and if they are made of human hair they come unset as quickly as your own does; This is the only fault I find with my fall. Manufacturers claim. that the new
. . . lynel pieces stay cu~led and this
. is' a .ver";··' good selling' point, particularly during humid Sum':' mer weather; . '. '
Whatever'you choose, fluffy or sleek; 'wavy' or straight, short or" long, . this '. is' the season for healthy bouncy hair. Teasing.is being kept at a minimum with only erlough' being done't«;l"give body' 'to' a style.' If the cu:rlytop look 'becomes as popular 'as indi
. cations' predict, then perman~nts will be reQuired to give' bend and curl to the hair. ..
Of course, the permanents' of today are far removell. from those' of 'yesteryear .when one emerged looking like a cross between Harpo Marx and 'Phyllis Diner. Today's hair preparations' pamper your 'hai'r,help give it body and make it more manageable, even if you' are your own beautician. So this season not only do you have the perplexing problem of what color to do your hair, you also have to deCide whether to curl or not to curl. '

This Is Good Yelar to P~ant Gre1ens for" Foundations
By Jl'ooeIIJIIlt Ilnd Marnyn Roderick If yoo haven't gobben around to planting greens for
your foundation as yet, this is as good a year to do it as you are likely to get. The soil is moist and the plants in l1lurseries are as healthy as you are likely to find them. This is particularly time of Using glass prisms as shade balled and burlapped shrubs which are usually pretty well dried out at this time of the year and must be selected very carefully. The rainy wel!Jther we have had has kept them moist and growing even in the burlapped condition. '
Prices are also right this Sum-, mer, primarily due to the IIact that the wet Spring we experiq;mced was not too condudve to getting people interested in the garden, and business at the nurseries was far below par. Right now there is a great deal of excess stock to be found and some good bargains to be had.
If this is your first venture ~nto foundation planting, let me give you a word of warning. Before you buy anything be sure flo check on the size of the mature plant you are considering. Recently'I visited a friend who was bemoaning the fact that the pines' he bad planted "llemporariIy'" 'six years ago had now grown' to such an eldent that they 'dwarfed his house. He was lIlOt exaggerating.' "
Get Advioo Now he is left with the prob-'
llem of, trying to uproot them" 00 thQt they may be replaced with more appropriately sized greens. Temporary plantings have a way of becoming ~rmanent problems in no tlme at all. Let your nursery man ad-' vise you in this matter and be wary of bargains in plants that aoone' else wants. '
We have mentioned before that before planting any gi'eens you should pay particular a.ttention to yOt.ii' soil. Be sure to dig it deeply, add as much 'peat moos as you CQI1 affOrd and mix it thoroughly. Give the whole thing a good soaking 90 that the peat moss will be thoroughly lJOaked and then Jl}lant ;,our ahrubs.
As ,a rule of thumb, ~ t,o keep. .them. at least tw@ feet from the foundation a~d leave' ~wo or three feet between plentilngs" depending on the type of shrub you are planting. Here again, take the nursery man's advice. He knows the plants and their growing style and he will ]lead you in the right direction.
Iu The Kitchel:l Fall is the perfect time to try
something new, whether it's a new hairdo, a new recipe or a new window treatment for a tired old den. Here are a few "Have you tried's" to make you, your home and your menu as ~right as those first Fall ]leaves.

Diocese 'Keeps Vital Parochial Statistics In Three' Microfilm Depositories
]J your parish records are destroyed by fire, flood or other C"rllamity, worry notat least as far as the records are concerned. The farseeing Diocese of Fall River has microfilm ~pies of all its vital statistics in three depositories: at the Chancery Office in Fall River, at Holy Trinity Ohurch in West Harwich, and at Our Lady of the Isle Church on Nantucket Island.

The Remington Office Systems division of the Sperry Rand CorporaVion is in charge of the microfilming job, expected to take four weeks. Cooperation of all 108 parishes in the Diocese has been necessary in the project. All have lugged heavy record books into the office, where they are the responsibility of office manager William Murray.
"About 700 separate record books are involved," he said. "We are microfilming each book In the 'sequence of nature,' that is, records of baptism, first communion, confirmation, marriage and death, in that order."
From Year One The record books were first
microfilmed in 1954, said Norman J. Rousseau, district manager for Remington. "At that time We did them from the year one. Now it's only a matter of

Prelate Advocates Advisory Boards
ROCKFORD (NC) - Bishop Loras T. Lane of Rockford, in a directive to clergy of the diocese, has encouraged formation of lay advisol'y boards to assist in admiriistration of parish schools and Confraternity. of Christian Doctrine programs.
Last year, the Illinois prelate d'irected that the councils of admin~stration, which guide the operation of the. diocesan high schools, were to be composed of a layman or a laywoman, as well as the pastor, of each of the parishes which built and maintained the val'ious high schools.
In his directive to the pl'iests, Bishop Lane said "every encouragement possible should be given to the establishmen~ of C.C.D. parish boards in ,those
, parishes where they are not as yet formed. Many parishes '21.lieady' have them <lmd, where properly organized, have lDee8

At Nantucket, West Harwich' and the Chancery Office, the
rolls are kept in special filingcabinets also containing chemi

It's like insurance-the microfilmed records may never be needed, but it's nice to know they're there.
The Fall River job holds special interest for both Mrs. Boudreau and Mr. Rousseau, Although their company is based in Providence, Mrs. Boudreau is a Fall River native, now living in Seekonk; and Mr. Rousseau is a member of SS. Peter and Paul parish in Fall River.

V~eif Obselrve~ WASHINGTON (NC)
Archbishop Robert E. Lucey Qf San Antonio, Tex., is among 20 Americans sent by President Johnson to Vietnam to observe the fairness of the Sept. 3 presidential elections.
The group which includes members of Congress, three governors, mayors, and religious, business, civic and labor leaders, left Monday for South Vietnam by plane. It is to return to this country about Sept. 6, three days after the elections.
The President named the observers in the wake of a message sent to the U. S. Congress by Premier Nguyen Cao Ky maintaining that his government is running a clean campaign for the election of a president, vice president and senators.
The letter was in response to criticism by some U. S. senators and representatives concerning fairness in preparation for the election.
"I cim say without any doubt in my conscience that my government does not deserve any lesson in honesty and patriotism from any quarter," Ky wrote, reacting to congressional charges that the election may be rigged in favor of the Ky-headed mili tary regime. ,
Free to TraveR
The President also named Rabbi Jacob P. Rudin of Great
,Neck, N. Y., president of the Synagogue Council of America, as an observer.
" , In bis message to Congress, Ky invited congressipnal leaders to come to South Vietnam and 9,bserve 'conditions for' them
" ,selves, ,but the Senate leadership , tUTrl;ed ,d?w~ the invitation.
Three senators-Edmund Muskie of Maifie, Bourke B. Hickenlooper of Iowa and' George L. Murphy of California-accepted the ' President's 'i~vitation to serve as observers. Thr~e governors also made the
trip-Gov. ,Richard J. Hughes of N~w Jersey, William Guy of North ,Dakota and Thomas McCall of Oregon. Three newspaper officials and one official, of a 'broadcasting company also were nawed.
The observers were assured they"will be free to travel in any secu~e al'ea of South Vietnam. Reports 'from Vietnam said observers also will come from at least six other nations-Belgium, New Zealand, Greece, Japan, Laos and the Philippines.

DETROIT (NC)"'- A unique role for suburbia in assisting families burned out by the riQts will be provided through the Ad Hoc Committee for Homes by Christmas, an organization established recently by members of suburban Human R<alations Councils Illnd other interested persons.
The group includes members of councils in all the suburbs and in Detroit, as well as representatives of the Archdiocese of Detroit Community Affairs Department, the Christian Family Movement, Project Commitment and the Interfaith Emergency Center.
Homes by Christmas seeks to find housing, both purchase and rental, throughout the metropolitan area to meet the needs of specific families. It will also raise funds to assist families to re-establish their homes.
"It is our goal that by Christ mas every burned-out family shall be satisfactorily and permanently rehoused," said Dr. Sally Cassidy of Wayne State University, chairman pro-tem of the new group.
"To this end we are working
experiments, as they have, been authorized to do, enlisting in the process the findings 'of the psychological and behavioral sciences.
The liturgist also said that the Church has at times been so concerned with the importance of celebrating Mass that it has neglected to a degree the social problems of the world.
"The Church has fostered worship and it has been left to others outside the Church to impleXl}ent effective love of one's fel-, low men," he stated. .
Father Diekmann said after the "day of prayer" proclaimed by President Johnson following the Detroit riots, priests were "appalled" to discover that their congregations had "never be-' fore really associated racial justice and charity with receiving Holy Communion."

From "Social Revolution in the Latin America" Edited by John J. Considine, M.M. .
On the question of lack of orientation as to wh~re ~evelopment of education is headed, Rev. Gust.avo Perez and ltev. Isaac Th. J. Wust say: "Vje WOUld. lIke to call your attention to the importance Qf Ideology 10 the whole iill eve 10 pment movement. !Jl'here is a true social revofiution going on in Latin America, as you know from,
~he theme of this" conference: ~hd since there cannot be rev
- <lIllution wit h'<lIlut an ideal Chat moves the people . toward tiilrastic action, abe "element of lldeology has belIlOme a very iimpol'tanlt faceoI'. Other papers will clarify this' nn more detail. Un education, we observe that i'Jn many countries' there is • ~lear ideological discrepancy Illot only between various private Ilgencies, but even. be1~een t~e Rtublic and priyate sector. T~IS tis especially true in the polley ..f .many convinced and practicing Cath~lics who insis~ .hay-. tRg a confessionally estabhshed liC:pool system excluding.~
lllperation with, the, pub 11 c IlIChools because they do, not provide, ;s Jhey'say, .a,' Christian .oo.ilieu.
Abandoned <Datbolics They forget that the majority
l\te'rcentage of the baptized Catholic youth attends these public. ochools. For nearly all at the university level this attitude ~reates a serious problem. How many cases can we find of ex-' cellent and well prepared ChrisIUans, including priests and re.nigious . men and women, who lllave been dissuaded from teach.ing or taking courses in a state university' because of. so-called !leftist te~dencies of these universities? This' only helps to aggravate the antagonism between Catholic. and state universities and, what is worse, these Christian leaders by vocation are forced to abandon
, tile Catholics who make up ,the !large majority of students in Latin American universities in the most forn1ative years of their Rives, Furthermore, most of these Catholics must go to state universities for economic reasons and there they are abandoned by Catholic teachers.
In rela'tionship to education for-development, th(~re is a trend toward more emphasis on techni'cal and agricultural training since general education has been ovel"emphasized too much in the. past. A Brazilian sociologist once· said that the surplus of lawyers in Latin Amercia was one of the 'reasons for underdevelopment. .But still, today, tot many students take up this career because it gives easy access to political positions, But development depends heavily upon the mechanization of agri culture and industrialization in general. Agrarian reform programs conceived as· mere land distribution without corresponding educational programs in agriculture are worthless.
Education For All Finally, a main trend in Latin
America education is its socialization effect; the extension of educational facilities to all social dasses. The private sector in education has mainly worked with the upper and tipper-middle classes in the past since it :was easy to finance schools for
wealthy families. Although there has been some change over the last years it is still a general phenomenon that pl"ivate education serves economically well off pepole and the public sector serves those from the lower so- , cial strata. A North American priest, a director of an upper class school in a very poor counrty, told I me: "But s0!llebody" has to take care of these rich people." When I reminded him that this system creates a division between the pdvate and the public sector and prolongs the gap between the social classes, he answered that he had never thought of it that way.
This indicates what I consider a general attitude: that non-participation or' insufficient participation of the private sector iii. the movement toward in tegration of the social classes into a harmonious social structure is not due so much to unwillingness 'as to lack of. understanding of the crucial nature of' today's social revolution in Latin Amer-, ' ica., .
Having considered these main trends of present educational development in Latin America, we would like to outline some challenges to private agencies hoping to work in Latin American education. Some of them will apply both to the private and, the public sector because of the national educational needs; others will be specific 'challenges to the private sector.
One System First of all-and it was stated
implicity before-there cannot be a question of two educational systems, a public one and pri vate one. There must be only the national educational system because of the national educa':' tional, needs. In th\s one system both the public and the private sector have their own responsibilities and duties. However, both sectors should work as harmoniously as possible. Other,. wise, there, will never be an adequate response to the educational needs of the people. Any antagonism between those responsible for public and private educational policy will be counterproductive to the common aims of all.
Consequently, because of the ideological problem we mentioned, members of religious orders and congregations should move individually into the public schools. They should do so not for proselytism but primarily for. the educational needs. Even though it would not be possible to give religiol.ls instruction in the public school, as, is the case
. in a number of pluralistic societies, this doesn't mean that it would be worthless· for a religious to teach in a public school.
Adults Need Aid Because of the great need for
community development, pri vate agencies should work in adult education. To say that he who has the youth has the future is a common cliche. But is it trueJ Especially when we consider Latin America where gen~ral education is a long term process, too long in fact to solve immediate needs? Furthermore, long-term projects' are almost impossible in Latin AmeriCa for many reasons too complex to

SAGINAW (NC)-Government aid to education has recei¥e4 qualified·' approval from the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran synod, . whic~ operates mi~isterial and teachertl'aining institu.. tions as well' as an extensive system of parochial schools.
A resolution adopted by delegates to the 368,OOO-member synod's biennial convention here in Michigan said there were instances of such aid that were neither condemned nor com-, manded by the Bible. It said that "actions and- decisions in this realm call for very cautious and! discerning judgment."
'The resolution was adopted despite objections that it reo: versed the synod's historic opposition to any mixture of church and state. In 1963 the synod adopted a resolution sharply critical of federal aid.
So~e delegates said that ciI-a cu'mstances had changed anell that a re-examination of primcipl~s was warranted.

TORONTO (NC) Ausllria's Franziskus Cardinal Koenig feels the Church would improve its public relations if it encouraged more public criticism of ecclesiastieal structures and opened its decision-making procedures to the scrutiny of the press,
"Objective criticism can be painful, especially if it goes into detail; but in the long run, the Church will win sympathy if it accepts criticism, becawte it will thus have accepted one of the rules o~ democratic pl'ocess," the Archbishop of Vienna declared..

have a more favorable attitude toward the Church and could also increase the flow of communication within the Church,'" Cardinal Koenig emphasized.
"The more the flow of communication within the Church is increased, the more inter-communication between the Church and society as a whole will be increased."
The Cardinal believes that in those areas where they enjoy greater competence, laymen not clerics-should make the decisions.
Earlier Cardinal Koenig said the transmission of religious news must be worked out in a competent manner by massmedia 'specialists "if they are not to be diminished into mere second-hand issues of first-hand events."
Cardinal Koenig distinguished two kinds of audiences for reli gious news:

K of C Start Drive For New Members
MONTREAL (NC) - The ,:knights 'of Columbus, with a -membership 'already exceeding 1.2 million, has launched a twoyear membership drive aimed at adding another 200,000 members to its rosters.
Supreme Knight John W. McDevitt, who announced the drive here at the KC's 85th annual convention, said it was the first major recruiting program for the order in more than a decade.
The last one, he said, was held in 1955 and 1956, with a goal of putting membership over the I-million mark. It succeeded, by adding 130,000 new
, members. The end of the current drive is scheduled to coincide with the dedication of the Knights' new 23-story office building in New Haven in mid1969.
styles will have to be worked out and these must be considerably different than the methods' traditionally emploYe4by the Church press, he suggested.
Great Import
"The renewal of the Church," Cardinal Koenig insisted, "will be deeply affected by new ways of scientific and popular communication, inasmuch as it interprets itself in cooperation with all these creative enterprises within the family of man.
"There is a mutual exchange between the Church and human society and our knowledge about the nature of this exchange is of great importance for the renewal of the Church," he added.
PC Appoints Three Laymen
PROVIDENCE (NC)-For the first time, laymen have been appointed in the departments of religious studies and philosophy at Providence College here.
Dr. Paul van K. Thomson, academic vice-president, announced that three laymen will join the philosophy department in September, and one will teach in religious studies.
Stephen E. Lammers, a native of Davenport, Iowa, and a- doctoral candidate in religious studies at Brown University, Providence, has been appointed instructor in religious studies.
Appointed 'to the philosophy department are Robert V. Devine, a native of Teaneck, N. J., and a doctoral candidate at the Catholic University of America, Washington; Arthur :F. Jackson, a native of Pawtucket, who received his master of arts degree in philosophy from Boston College last June; and James P. Kelly, a native of Bridgeport, Conn., who holds masters degrees in both philosophy and theology from St. John's University, Jamaica, N. Y., and the pm.D. from S1. John's.
