intended as a positive stand to encompass the broad expanse of the Catholic press.

"No reflection is intended upon any other publishing me­ dia, secular or otherwise," the CPA president said. "The fact is that the Catholic press ex­ pounds and defends a great variety of truths in which the Church is vitally interested.

These include not only dogmatie and moral truths, but any aspect of reality, or truth, which affectl man's destiny in time and eter­ nity."

Catholic Bible Week extends from February 2 to February 9.

It is a good time t~ review what the Bible is.

The Bible is spoken of as a book. Actually, it is a collec­ tion of books. Between the time when the first book of the Bible was written and the time when the last one was written about fourteen hundred years elapsed.

The Bible is divided into two main sections, the Old Testa­ ment and the New Testament.

The Old Testament goes from the time of Adam and Eve until about 100 years before Christ was born. . There are 46 books in the Old Testamimt - some being not very long, only a few chapters.

Some of these books relate facts and events and are called historical. 'Other books teach doctrine and admonitions to lead a holy life and these are called

doctrinal. Others are the works of the prophetS, religious lead­ ers and. teachers, and are called prophetical books. .

The books of the Old Testa­ ment were originally written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek.

New Testament The New Testament tells of Christ and His followers. There are 27 books in the New Testa­ ment, and these were written in Greek and Araamic.

All s.re familiar with the Gos­ pels according to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. In the New Testament there are also The Acts of the Apostles, a his­ tory of the early Church, the Letters of St. Paul, St. James, St. Peter, 81. John, St. Jude, and the .Apocalypse of St. J"ohn, a book elf instruction, admonition and prophecy.

The word "testament" means a contract, and the Old Testa­

ment tells of the contract made between God and the Jewish nation. He would be in a par­ ticular way their God and they His people if they obeyed Him. The New Testament tells of the relationship between Christ and His Church, the members of His Mystical Body.

Word of God The books of the Bible are not like other books. All other books are the products of hu­ man intelligence.

They are man's word to man, The books of the Bible were not composed by mere human industry. The Holy Ghost took such an active part in their composition that He is their real Author. Their human writers acted under the guidance of. God. Hence, though written by men, arid in human language, the books' of the Bible are the Word of GOd. 1'urn toPa,e Twent7

'Guatemcda Extre'mists"'~\"i'h Despite Catholic Warning Guatemala's extremist parties, against which voters voters were warned by the Catholic press, won first and second places in this nation's presidential election, according to almost complete counts.

"No one can deny," it said, Miguel Ydigoras Fqentes, "th'at the extreme left or right has polled 140,802 votes in re­ turns from all but 30 of Guate­ mala's 322 districts.

cannot guarantee the respect and effective cooperation of Church and state. We have abundant proof at hand from the past. Both extreme ideologies' have become actual dictator­ ships with resulting tragedy for the people ruled by them.

"Furthermore those strong governments which boast of being anti-communist are in reality fostering communism be­ cause of the resentment they

sow.

"The Church, cannot expect from either of these extremes the ,respect due to the rights of God and itself. Consequently, the Church has no choice ,but to continue suffering and fighting if either of these . . . groups wins the election.

"The responsibility for this predicament would fall u~n the conscience of Catholics who pay no heed to the' warnings" of their pastors and let themselves be carried away by un-Christian slogans." , " "

Brotherhood in Action Defined When Accident Paralyzes Youth BLISSFIELD (NC) - Young Bill DeLoach may be paralyzed from the neck down for life, but his accident is seen as hav:ing helped this community define in action the meaning of brother­ hood.

Bill, while home on vacation from Sacred Heart seminary, Detroit, broke his neck last June 17 when he dIved into a lake.

His townsfolk in this predom­ inently Protestant rural town, were swift to offer their sym­ pathy, prayers and help.

On Sept. 9 the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in an open let­ ter to the Blissfield Advance, which Bill's father, Duane De­ Loach owns and operates, asked the community to start a fund for Bill.

Four months later the Vin­ centians published a note" in the Advance expressing appreciation "to all those who assisted in the successful fund drive in which a total of more than $3,000 has been realized."

Praise and gratitude for the community spirit was expressed in a "thank you" editorial in the Advance written by Publisher DeLoach: ". . . Yet there is more that the DeLoach family would like to acknowledge. The gifts of loving service which so many offered and gave freely.

Charity in Prayers " ..• Like the man who built the overhead frame for Bill's bed after he came home Nov. 15 from university hospital; the lady who offered to do laundry for several weeks because it helped relieve the burden at home; the folks who sent in trays of cookies, cakes and pies and candy; who came to visit Bill; who welcomed our six younger children into their

homes after school and for meals when we had to go to the hospital.

"Our especial thanks to those truly Chris~ian souls in our par­ ish and other churches of our town, who raised special collec­ tions for Bill, manifesting their charity also in prayers.

"Above all, our very special thanks to our pastor, Father R. Vincent Myrick, who almost daily has brought Holy Com­ munion to Bill, and for many other kindnesses," Mr. DeLoach wrote.

Seminary Friends Bill's attitude since the acci­ dent is indicated in a note writ­ ten in thanks to his friends in the seminary, where he had been a student for six years: "Dear Gang: I want to thank' you for the material gifts but I know that this is only part of all you have done for me, like the tip of an iceberg, and is backed up by an unseen but far greater gift of your prayers.

"Money can't make me walk and maybe in God's Providence prayers won't either, but the grace they can bring can make us happy in any state in life.

Thanks. BilL"

Blood of Martyrs Makes Mexico Land, of Promise

Non-Catholics R.ec.ite Mass Prayers

By Most Rev. Robert J. Dwyer, D.O.

Bishop of Reno

For Bishop Francis Ciement Kelly, writing a quarter of a century ago, Mexico was the land of blood-drenched altars. For Bishop Schlarman of Peoria,' attempting a broader survey, it was the land of volcanos, less in the geological order of Paracutin priests are pitifully inadequate than in the moral order of for the care of one of the most rapidly increasing populations of violent passions andinsen­ sate hatreds. There are ,still the world. The Archdiocese .of bloodstains on the 'altars, and there is no question but that the volcanoes are, still rumbling, but ihe ph'ase which corresponds to our limited experience is "Mex­ ico, the Land of Promise."

There is the perennial promise of the faith of the people. It is hard to describe in realistic terms the magnificent, simplicity of this faith. You catch glimpses of it in the crowds of intense, exalted faces that surround you as you offer Mass at a baroque - altar, where the candles are crooked and the linen not perI haps overly clean.

You see it in the bent figure of a peon from the hills who has plodded many miles to the church to sing his pathetic little song to the Virgin Mother.

There is the promise of th~ new hierarchy of the Church in Mexico, made up of men who have resolved to let the dead' past bury its dead, and to forge ahead with a program of the apostolate which looks neither to the right or the left. It will never again be the Church of the Colonial days, with its rhetorical architecture and its splendid munificence.

The portraits of the old bish­ ops look down from their ornate 'frames in the sacristies with ap­ palled unbelief. They cannot imagine their successors reduced to such penury and yet perform­ ing greater works than ever the royal patronage envisioned. The new bishops have no time to spend in fruitless regret for a past which concealed its weak­ nesses beneath a velvet mantle with gold embroidery. They are Concerned exclusively with the radical cure of those weaknesses which brought the Church upon sUch evil days.

Heroic Preisthood There h,' equal promise in the' new priesthood 'which is entering upon the service of the Church..

The popular concept of the Mex­ icanpriest as content to 'take life ori fairly easy terms, saying Mass and dozing in the sun, is about as far from reality as it is pos­ sible to get. The vast majority of priests today are as hard-work­ ing as any in the world, living lives as sacrificial as mission­ aries in the most difficult out­ posts of the Faith.

The Mexican youth who an­ llwers to a vocation deliberately embraces poverty, political dis­ inheritance (for priests are de-' nied citizenship), and even, in many sections, a positive social stigma. From seminary to the grave he must be content with wretched living conditions, un­ eriding calls upon' his time, and the nagging uncertainty of working under a policial order could change momentarily from tolerance . to persecution. The priest in modern Mexico fulfills the essential definition of 3: hero.-

Mexico City, with well over four million Catholics, is almost surely the largest see in the entire Church, .

Situation Peaceful There are questions concern­ ing religion in Mexico which are baffling to the casual visitor.

Why is it that the Church, secure in the fidelity of the overwhelm­ ing mass of the-people, supported openly by Mexicans of wealth and culture, is' still unable to throw off the slavery which was fastened upon her. by Benito Juarez and his modern counter­ parts?

There is no simple answer, and the present writer, after dis­ cussing it with a 'number of priests whose opinion is cer­ tainly of value, gained the im­ pression that it is not a popular topic. There is ignorance to combat, a vast apathy on the part of the people, for whom politics and politicians are ob'::­ jects of almost superstitious dread, and there is an overbear­ ing fear lest the revival of the dispute should once more bathe the i1ltars in blood. ' The present situation is at least peaceful; it may, with the passage of time, work itself. out to a genuine separation of Church and State, where the Church will be 'free to fulfill her mission without perpetual dis­ may.

This much at least is certain.

Mexico will never lose the Faith.

The blood of martyrs has pro­ .duced onc.e more the need of a living Catholicity.

New Bedford Guild To Present 'Drama

-THE ANCHOR Thurs., jan. 30, 1958

HOT SPRINGS (NC) - The entire student body of St. Gabri­ el's school here, 90 percent non­

Catholic, all raising their voices

..10 God in the liturgy of the

Church, impressed Father James J. Harrington, C.S.P., as an in­ spiring spectacle. There are only 15 Catholic children in the school.

Father Harrington, director of the. PC\ulist Fathers' southern mission band with headquarters at Memphis, Tenn., conducted a mission in the Hot Springs area ot' the Little R.ock diocese as partof the Paulist centenary.

"All those non-Catholic chil­ dren joining in with the small' handful of Catholics to recite the prayers of the Proper and Canon during daily Mass, even answering the responses in Latin -well, it was indeed 'a wonder­ ful sight," said Father Harring­ ton.

Assisting the Paulist during, the mission was the pastor of St. Gabriel's church, Father Henry J. Lemmens, a Holy Ghost Fath­ er. He is a veteran of the Afri­ !:an missions who' spent seven years in an English concentra­ tion camp during World War II. Father Lemmens, now an Am­ erican citizen, and' his com,.

panions were brought to the United, States and .given their freedom largely through the ef­ f<;>rts of the National Catholic Welfare Conference.' St. Gabri­ el's'school is under the direction of five Sisters of the Servants of the Holy Heart of. Mary and has an enrollment of 15Q pupils.

Father Harrington expressed himself as well-pleased by the large attendance, of interested Negro non-Catholics at the mis­ sion.

A convert class was started.

Youngsters May Still Become Big Leaguer

HARTFORD (NC) - One of Connecticut's best known Protes­ tant clergymen said here that he considers anti-Catholic propa­ &andist Paul Blanshard "a secu­ larist" and is strongly opposed to "agitation" of the sort pro­ moted by Mr. Blanshard.

Dr. Russell Henry Stafford made his remarks in a letter to Msgr. John S. Kennedy, editor of The Catholic Transcript, offi­ cial newspaper of Connecticut's three dioceses.

Dr. Stafford is president of the Connecticut Council of Protes­ tant Churches and of the Hart­ ford S e min a r y Foundation, which trains Protestant students for the ministry of all denomina­ tions. Earlier, the Connecticut Council o[ Churches had issued its own statement dis-associating itself from Mr. Blanshard and his views.

Dr. Stafford said that "I find myself in strong dissent from Mr. Blanshard's position, on two grounds especially. , "First, in the one book of his which I have read, he appears to me to be a secularist, and not to acknowledge that in any in­ stance the voice of God through conscience takes precedence over the civil law.

"Secondly, while I am not in possession of documentation' for questioning the accuracy of his statistical and other statements to the disadvantage of the Roman Catholic Church, I am strongly inclined to feel that his inter­ pretation of the facts is biased and one-sided.

"I am confident that no general anti-Catholic feelings represent fairly the prevalent mood of the Protestant community in Con­ necticut. or indeed in this coun­ try as a' whole.

Positive Action "For myself, I have always found I am kept so busy explain­ ing and expressing my positi~e faith that I have no ,time or energy left over for exploiting negative attitudes toward those with who m on theological grounds I disagree, while respec­ ting and indeed revering their sincere devotion to the Divine Lord of all Christians."

Meanwhile, the Transcript, newspapCl' of the Archdiocese of Hartford and the Dioceses of Norwich and Bridgeport, criti­ cized a recent speech by Mr. Blanshard, chapter of Protes­ tants and Other Americans United for the Separation of Church and State as "a thor­ 'oughly dishonest and contempt­ 'ibly mean performance." , It charged that l\{r. Blanshard, special counsel for POAU, in­ 'stead of discussing the Connecti­ cut school bus transportation ,law as had been promised before the meeting, "gave his long­ familiar set speech, a farrago of ,untruths and quarter-truths, of slippery innuendoes' and sly ap­ peals to ilrejudice."

The paper added that it was "most significant" that E. O. Smith, chairman of the state's House Committee on Education, and others who led the opposi­ tion to the school.bus transpor­ tation law last year, were among those who took part in the PO­ AU meeting.

NO HEARTBEAT FOR 165 MINUTES: Fourteen candles on a cake mark a small boy's two-week struggle to live. He is Dav id Fleming, Jr., of Queens Village, N. Y., who underwent heart surgery at St. Francis Hospital and Sanatorium, Roslyn, N. Y. During a five-hour operation, David's heart stopped beating for two and three-quarter hours; being kept alive by a 15-member surgical team who massaged his heart by hand as they performed a delicate operation. 15 pints of blood, were given to him from donors who responded to newspaper, radio and TV appeals for help.

VATICAN CITY (NC)-Two lambs, whose wool will be used to weave pallia for archbishops w,~re' blessed here on the feast of St. Agnes by His Holiness Pope Pius XII. The lambs were carried into the Pope's presence in wicker baskets by representatives of the chapter of canons of the Basilica of St. John Lateran. The Po~ blessed the animals and they were later taken to the Camal­ dolese nuns at St. Cecilia's con- ' v(:nt, whose traditional task it is to weave the pallia, shoulder bands of white wool marked with six ,cro'sses, which are a symbol of sharing in the Pope's fulness of episcopal authority.

The new pallia will be pre­ sented to the Pope for his bless­ ing on the feast of SS. Peter and Paul (June 29). They are stored in a casket on the Altar of the Confession in st. Peter's basilica to be bestowed later upon 'pre- . bites privileged to wear the~.

ROSLYN (NC) - Medically speaking, there's no reason in the world why young David Fleming can't achieve his ambi­ tion to become a big-league baseball player.

But for almost. three hours on Dec. -30 it was a different story, That was when David's heart stopped beating.

The incident occurred during a delicate five-and-a-half hour heart operation at St. Francis Hospital and Sanatorium here, to replace the boy's ruptured aorta. For two-and-three-quar­ ters hours a 15-man surgical team kept the boy alive by mas­ saging his heart.

Dr. Dhan Raj Mahajan, se­ nior surgical resident at the hospital, said that most doctors would have pronounced the boy officially dead. Some inspira­ tion he cannot explain, Dr. Mahajan said, urged him to con­ tinue the apparently futile mas­ saging action.

David had another narrow scrape when 15 pints of rare O-negative blood arrived in the nick of time following an urgent radio and television appeal.

But now Dr. Mahajan has re­ ported his condition as "satis­ factory." David's only complaint is that during two months in and out of hospitals his hair had grown so long that a nurse ex­ claimed on seeing him, "Oh, what a cute little girl!" Like any _ prospective big-leaguer, DaVId demanded - and got - a haircut.

Catholic, Bible Week'

,\

'

The Experts Testify

,'

The seventh annual Catholic Bible Week will be ob-'

served all over the country from Sunday, February the

second, known as Catholic Bible Sunday, to Sunday, Febru­ ary the ninth. ,

It is sometimes charged that Catholics do not give

the Bible the honor that it deserves. Nothing could be farther from the truth. .

The Mass, the central act of worship by which the Church offers sacrifice to God with and through her Divine Spouse, Jesus Christ, draws liberally on the Bible, both Old Testament and New, for texts to express the Church's sentiments and those of her members.

The Breviary, the Church's official prayer book, a portion of which the priest must say in the, name and on behalf of the Church each day, is composed almost com­

pletely of Scripture. The priest prays the one hundred and fifty psalms once every week.

At a Solemn Mass the Gospel book is carried in a pro­ cession accompanied by candles; it is' incensed and kissed and shown the greatest of reverence.

Indeed, the art, of illuminating manuscripts reached its peak through the Middle Ages when artists and craftmen spent years copying and decorating the Word of God. The most beautiful book in the world, the Book of Kells, now in Trinity College, Dublin, is a Gospel book. The intricate lettering and rich colors and ingenious figures bear eloquent witness to the honor in which Catholics hav,e always held the Bible.

'And, of 'course, it must be remembered' that we have the Bible today only because our Catholic forebears guarded "it, prayed it; (fopied it te~iously by 'hand before th~ invention of movable type, .and passed it on to us as part of our

heritage. ".

The Yardstick It is up to us as individuals to show as much reverence for and interest in the Bible as the Church does.

If your marriage is troubled 'never go to a psychiatrist who is living with a second wife; if you are in pain never expect true consolation from one who has not suffered; if you want aid for the poor and the afflicted expect the most aid from those who know the meaning of poverty and tearll. As beggars for the Holy Father and his Missions we know this to be true; as this letter from a child of seven bears witness: Dear Bishop Sheen: Mother went to the hospital for the se~ond time in two weeks. Daddy does not come home very, often. Once when he did, he kicked Mommy out of the house and she had to go to the hospital. Daddy is not kind but bitter, and he treats her like dirt and makes her' feel bad. She cries and my' brother and sister cry too. Mommy always tells us to be kind and to love him, to pray for him and never blame him, that God will keep him from sin and wickedneSlj and save his soul. Will you please pray ~or us1 I am sending you twenty-five cents from myself arid three cents from my sister. Give it to.. , the· Holy' Father because we know that h e , .', ' _ .

Serious Gaps in Youth Work CINCINNATI (NC) - Calling

for "total community concern" about "youth with problems", a priest-sociologist here warned that there are "serious gaps" in services now provided for delin­ quents.

Father Edward D. Connelly, assisant director of Catholic Charities here, said there are "definite attitudes in the mod­ ern community" which hinder reclamation of young people.

"We don't solve a child's prob­ lems," Father Cor'melly warned, "by teaching him that there is no authority. The child must learn to accept, respect, and work with authority.

"But in the first half of this

THE ANCHORThurs., Jan. 30, 1958

century we have wandered" in our evaluation of authority, and the very word has come to possess II cold, harsh, dictatorial sound. But the fact is that we all live by authority, and only by developing an understanding of this principle can youth be led to live according to the standards of God and of the community."

Climate of Respect The r,esponsib1lity of the indi­ vidual youth to respect auhor­ ity, as well as the community's responsi.bility to develop a cli­ mate oJ: respect, were stressed by the priest. "No youth will be helped unless he desires to be helped," he said.

Father Connelly suggested that "we haven't sold to the public the need for agencies and re'sources to meet the needs 01. youth."

With youth advisory groups beginning to grow, he called for a strengthening of "neighbor­ hood responsibility" in order to enable the trained workers tie "make use of our knowledge on a wider basis."

He urged social workers: "Take a personal interest in the youth who turns up in a truancy report, or a relief case, and keep in contact, somehow, until some source of help is made avail­ fIIble."

Failures of Communication Cause Hostility to Legion of Decency NEW YORK (NC)-"Tragic failures of communication" be­ tween Catholics and other reli­ gious groups since the founding of the National Legion of De­ cency in 1934 have caused to­ day's "smoldering hostility" to the agency.

"We must repair our differ­ ences," declared Jesuit Father Thurston N. Davis, editor of America, national Catholic weekly.

Much more serious than "backsliding" on the part of some Catholics, declared Father Davis, 'is the attitude of many non-Catholics toward the Legion. He said it was his im­ pression that "within the past few years there has grown up a certain rigid and frigid relation­ ship between a relatively large and vocal group of non-Cath­ olics and the Catholic Legion of Decency."

He pointed to the controversy over the motion picture "Baby Doll," condemned by the Le­ gion as "morally repellent both in theme and treatment," as the most notable recent incident il­ lustrating the "smoldering hos-' tility" that characterizes the at­ titude of many non-Catholics toward the agency Father Davis recalled that "the Cardinal-Archbishop of New York had scarcely stepped out of his pulpit before the Prot­ estant dean of one of our other local cathedrals was on his way to Times Square to pose before cameramen under a picture of 'Baby Doll' in her crib, and to tell the press he considered the film a 'responsible judgment on

the facts of human life.' " The Jesuit editor declared that "things were different in the period immediately follow­ ing the Legion's birth." There was in 1934, he said, "a totally different attitude on the part of non-Catholics toward the Le­ gion."

He cited editorials and stories which then appeared in such publications as the New York Times, the Springfield, Mass., Union and the non-denomina­ tional Protestant weekly, The Christian Century, praising the Legion's goals and reporting Protestant and Jewish support for its objectives and methods.

Reports from these and other sources, he said, reveal "the as­ tounding total of 54 organiza­ tions of Protestant and Jewish churches, ministers or rabbis who cooperated in securing pledges, or who publicly an­ nounced their support of the Legion campaign."

"The climate of intercredal cooperation that in 1934 made possible so unanimous" unequiv­ ocal and spontaneous a' response­ to the cause of the Legion of Decency," Father Davis con­ tended, "had by 1957 been al­ most entirely dissipated."

Need World"Organization To Prevent Aggression

By Donald McDonald

The year too optimistic he predicted 1984 as the year when all the earth would be divided into three political land masses and all human life would lie in the iron gdp of three tyrant-States and all human action would Communists" discovered they be under the constant sur- did not have to change so much veillance of the State. as an adjective in the vocabulary Orwell's miscalculation of their demagoguery. All they

NEW YORK (NC)-More than $3.4 billion-approximate­ ly 51 per cent-of the $6.7 bil­ lion given in philanthropy in this country during 1957 went to "religion," an organization engaged in fund-raising activi­ ties has estimated. What is in­ cluded in t~e category "relig­ ion" was not stated.

Some $3.1 billion was given to "religion", in 1955, according to the most recent statistics a­ vailable from U. S. Department of Health, Education and Wel­ fare.

Religious contributions were' estimated at .67 per cent of personal incomes in 1945.

They are· now close to 1 per cent.

The figures are contained in "Giving-USA," a publication of the American Association of Fund-Raising (sic), a non-profit organization with headquarters here.

Property and endowment of American churches and syna­ gogues is valued at approximate­ ly $13 billion, the association said. In addition property and en­ dowment of privately supported

institutions of higher education is valued at some $12.9 billion.

The value of plant and endow­ ment of nO!'l-profit hospitals is approximately' $5.7 billion, of which $3.9 billion is in plant.

The association estimated that religious construction during 1957 totaled $870 million, of' which approximately $640 mil­ lion wen't for new structures. It said that more than $773 million

was spent on new religious con­

struction during 1956. More than $4.5 billion has been spent on

new religious construction in

the United States in the past' decade. The association said that new religious building construc­ tion will probably remain at an

annual $800 million for at least a decade.

was explainable. -He had not considered the possibility that Eurasia' would- achie've a years- ahead break- through in mis- sileryandrock- etry. And so his time-table was off. And it was not three dicta- tors ceaselessly jockeying for global power in 1964; there was just one and there was no more jockeying. Eastasia had succumbed first. Largely agricultural, it had dreamed of its industrial potential but events had moved too swiftly.

Oceania had once had both the. scientific and industrial stature to keep Eurasia at bay in what one of her statesmen had called a "balance of terror."

But Oceania had lost her moral ltature. Her peoples had fallen·· to quarreling among themselves and one of the nations, the trnited States, had become so ()bsessed with reaching a goal called a "balanced budget" that there was nothing to do but send !l delegation - to the capital of Eurasia to find out what the tenns for survival would be.

Reluctant to Sacrifice Moralists (though that word is never used any more) also recalled that the peoples of the trnited States had been reluctant ~ sacrifice any of their comforts. They had always spent more for their whiskey and toaacco than they had for educatiltn and they had always thought that the scientist's first :luty to the nation was to provide :nore and more inventions to make life pleasant and infinitely ',oore effortless.

The United States leaders had ':Iever really called for any sacri­ rice. They had been convinced :hat leadership consisted fn serving the desires of the people and :hey would never, as they said, ·'step on anybody's toes."

The transition from a free to 1 slave State was, at first,almost ~mperceptible. It was, of course, '"loodless on the international ~evel. There was 'no ·rubble·, no :loud' of crippling radioactive .illSt. Eurasia had simply an~l(t(mced it would send a "sam:tIe" intercontinental missile

had to change was the names of their victi~s and these names were. suppli~d regularly by the Eurasian authorities.

Newspapers Change Newspapers continued to ap­ pear much as usual. But readers began to notice changes. Adver­ tising 'dwindled, then disap­ peared as the stores exhausted their stocks of merchandise.

Henceforth all food and clothing was issued by the government at State prices payable in govern­ ment-issued scrip.

• Editorial comment was re­ stricted to praise of the "bene­ volent" Eurasian government.

Lists of "deviationists" and their various assignments - to - exile were published. At first the lists were long, but they, too, began to dwindle as the peoples of Oceania were frightened away from: even the thought of devia­ . tion. Hard-core "democrats" be­ . came discreet, then clandestine.

One element of resistance the Eurasians had not succeeded in neutralizing or destroying by . 1964 was to be found in a small number of Catholic families­ scattered throughout oCeania and Eurasia itself.

Because the parents of these -families had. taken theirreli­ gious obligations seriously and and thoroughly instructed their children in the Faith, religious practices forbidden in public were continued in the home.

Occasionally priests, in lay clothes, visited the homes to celebrate Mass and hear Confes­ sions and distribute Communion.

Both the religious and filial loyalities of the children in these families were unshakeable, but ~me of the parents and priests agreed it was only a question of time-perhaps in ;t geneJ.:ation or two - that even this religi'on would be reduced to a legend, a diminishing reality that could be handed on to the next generation only with increasing difficulty.

All agreed that. Christianity would never perish, though tew would venture to guess as to what form, where and. when it would make its triumphant pub­ lic appearance in the wod~. .

What Must Be ,Done There was, however, consider-. able. speculation-well, as long as bme would permit during these sub rosa gatherings-about "what might have been." The

consensJ-ls was that two things could have been done as late as 1958 or 1959: .

(1) Eurasia could have been stalemated with an all-out, not a reserved or qualified' effort' on the part of Oceania's peoples.

(2) Since ~ perpetual armed statemate would have reduced ~urasia. aU wol'ld 'peoples to a barren, Religious Oppositiou'

In union there is strength -Suggested by. Mrs. James Lanagan, Fairhaven

Christian Exile Leader Starts Venezuela Ripe for Democracy NEW YORK (NC) - Venezuela, after the revolution, needs a strong labor movement, more progressive labor legislation, and a stronger, more rational, econ­ omy, a Christian political leader said here.

Dr. Raphael Caldera, head of Venezuela's Christian Democra­ tic (Copei) party and currently a political exile in the United States, expressed this hope for his nation's future as he prepared to return to his homeland after the fall of President Marcos Perez Jimenez.

Venezuela, he said, is now ripe for democratic government.

"The rich should be less rich, the poor less poor," he said dur­ ing an interview in his Manhat­ tan hotel suite, which buzzed with the din of Latin American well-wishers, reporters and the incessant ringing of phones.

The 42-year-old professor of labor law at Venezuela's Nation­ al University in Caracas said he hopes that all political leaders will put aside their selfish in­ terests and save their nation the anguish of a heated political eampaign.

National Union "There should be a provisional government," he continued, "un­ til such time as the people c.m elect a ncw parliament." Dr.' Caldera said that he was bent on backing any political agree-. ment which would lead to ,a Jlational union.

Jesuit-educated Dr. Caldera arrived in New York on Jan. 19 after spending four months in a Caracas prison and several weeks in asylum at the home 0.£ Archbishop Raffaele Forni, Apostolic Nuncio to Venezuela.

The mild-mannered young lawyer and university professor is one of Venezuela's most popu­ lar political figures. As such, he was considered the leader of the opposition to the recent dicta­ torial regime of President Perez Jimenez.

So popular was Dr. Caldl~ra that President 'Perez Jimenez considered him a constant threat to his power and had him im­ prisoned last August.

Suggests Childless Coupl'e -Ignore Critics' Remarks

Cross Word Solution

By Rev. John L. Thomas, S. J. st. Louis University

We have been married for almost nine years and the doctor feels certain that we will never have any children.

We have accepted this as God's' will, but apparently others don't,see it that way. Time and again, my husband and I ha~e l:>een ~ubjected to crue.lSuch people regard themselves Iy msmuatmg remarks, as If as the self-appointed guardians we were guilty of some crime. of their neighbor's !fiorals. You . Why should good Catholics just can't win against them. Like take this frightfully un-Chris­ tian appro'ach? 1\ren't there many 0 the r couples in our situation?

Yes there are

and p~rhaps al­ ways have been

.e h i 1 die s s

couples in every

9OCiety. Some­ times God has worked a mira­ de to bless such couples, For ex­ ample, the Old Testament tells 118 that He did this in the cases of Abraham and Sarah; of Anna, the mother' of the great prophet Samuel, and of Zachary and Elizabeth, the parents of St. John the Baptist. These are excep­ tional cases, of course, but they show that the problem existed even among God's chosen people.

Many Possible Reasons In our society, it is estimated that about one out of every 10 couples remains childless in spite of their fondest hopes and desires. Modern medical ex­ ,perts are devoting a great deal of attention to this problem.

'Just last year they held an in­ ternational congress in Rome where their work was highly praised and blessed by Pius XII in a special audience.

According to meLlical opinion, there are many possible reasons for childlessness, some known and some to be dfscovered. Con­ trary to traditional -belief, doc­ tors now tell us that it results from some condition in the hus­ band about as often as in the wife, while some cases appar­ ently result from a combination of various factors.

As you say, you have accepted your childlessness as the will of God. What bothers you is the attitude of -so-called "good" , Catholics toward your situation.

Obviously, they are well enough informed to know that all cases of childlessness are not volun­ tary. Why do they maliciously insinuate that your case is?

Self-Appointed Judges The onswer is simple, though distressing. I suppose there is no clearer evidence of Original Sin than the persiste,nt tendency of people to see evil rather than good -in their fellowmen. This tendency is strong in the best of us. Unfortunately, it is aliowed to develop unrecognized and un­ checked in some.

"There's a promotional and selling job that needs to be done on the local levell in every community if the Catholic Church is to benefit from the full potential of serv­ ice that' the Catholic 'press offers."

The priest said that some 45 Catholic newspaper publishers recently, formed a national ad­ vertisi~g grpup known as Cath­ olic Family Newspapers. Its purpose, . he explained, is to promote the Catholic newspaper press as a desirable advertising medium for national producers.

He urged Catholic buyers in of­ ficial positions as well as Cath­ olic laYIl1en to give preference to, the products they see adver­ tised in the Catholic press.

~rogram Plannedl An informational program aimed at developing ,a more substantial appreciation of the Catholic press among parish priests, seminarians and mem­ bers of many Catholic organiza­ tions, will be launched by Cath­ olic publishers through the CPA this year, the CPA Ilresident said. He said the program will be just the beginning.

"Such programs have a 'pay­ off date which extends quite far into the future and the Catholic press faces an immediate ur­ gency in getting pastors to co­ opera~e more effectively in dis­

tributing Catholic literature" the Monsignor declared. ' Almost without l~xception Catholic publishers believe that any substantial growth in the Catholic _)ress rests in the hands of the parish priest, Msgr. Ran­ dall (;ontinued. ' "This is as it should, be," he said, "since the Catholic press serves the parish more effec­ tively, than does any other eche­

lon of, the Church's structure.

Our difficulty is that not enough priests appear to realize this."

As an example of the help which can come from Catholic organizations, Msgr. Randall pointed. to the success of the Knights of Columbus' educa­ tional ,program for non-Cath­ olics, carried on through adver­ tisements in secular newspapers and magazines.

FINDER OF DEAD SEA SCROLLS: Muhammed adh-Dhib, right, is the simple Arabian goat-herder who made history in leading to the finding of what have been called "The Dead OSea Scrolls." In the spring of 1947 the young Palestinian threw a stone into a cave, heard some­ thing break, and then found in earthen jugs the treasured documents. The'scrolls broke the silence which shrouded the religious background of the time' of Christ, and they greatly increased knowledge of the so-called inter-Te,sta­ mental period, which separated the end, of' the, Old and beginning of the New Testament. The scrolls illuminated early history of the Old Testament They, in n'o way revO;­ lutionized New Testament theology but' have shed' lig,ht on previously unknown background to the histo,ric,al origins of Christianity.

, WASHINGTON (NC)-North American members of the Young Christian Workers' movement must take the initia­ tive in solving hllman problems on a higher level than the social and economic, and thus give an example to young Christians throughout the rest of the world.

'This opinion was expressed in an interview h~re by Romeo Maione, ;'oung Montreal me­ chanic who was elected inter­ national president of the Young Christian Workers during their world congress in Rome last September.

"There are more serious and profound problems, involving the integrity of the human per­ sonality" he said, "which must be solved. It isn't enough mere­ ly to help people to better their ROMEO MAIONE , social and economic situation.

preserved her heritage of the Bible. .

Our English translation of the Bible is called the Confraternity edition. It· is a revision of the Challoner-Rheims Version in which the New, Testament was published in 1582 and the Old Testament in ,1609. The English Protestant translation of the Bible most widely used is the so-called "Authorized Version" of 1611. It is known as the King James Bible. It has recently been revised.

I Interpretation No one who has read even one book of the Bible will deny that Holy. Scripture' needs interpre­ tation. St. Peter himself says that in the letters of St. Paul "there are certain things diffi­ cult to understand, which the unlearned and the unstable dis­ tort, just as they do the rest of ,the Scriptures also, to their own destruction," (2 Pet. 3, 16.)

Since the Bible is the work of the Holy Ghost it can be rightly and infallibly interpreted by Him alone or under His guid­ ance. God did not promise the Holy Ghost to every reader of the Bible but to the Church. The Church alone is the guardian of the Bible and can explain the Scriptures with infallible cer­ tainty. "What else," says St. Augustine, "gives rise to so many heresies except that ,the Scripture, which is excellent in itself, is falsely understood."

And Shakespeare reminds us that "the devil can cite Scrip­ ture for his purpose."

St. Gregory the Great calls the Scriptures "a letter which Almighty God addre'ssed to mankind." Catholics are urged to ~ead the ,Word of God under the guidance of the Church of God, that they may kriow more fully their Father in Heaven and, strive to serve Him more faithfully.
