"In this providential coming together, sports also have a place of value.

HE>NG KOl'."'G (NC) - The Hong Kong diocese plans to put all estimated $2,975,000 into re lief and welfare projects which it has planned for completion by 1965. Msgr. Charles H. Vath, chair man of the board of directors of Caritas-Hong Kong, the diocese's Catholic relief organization, an nounced this and said: "Our goal is to help improve the health, social and economic status of Hong Kong's popula. tion of refugees and other prov erty-stricken Chinese." He noted that -the diocese's re·
lief plans are kept "flexible so
that, wherever possible we may
anticipate future and changing
needs." Most of Caritas-Hong Kong's funds for construction and equip. ment come in the form of aid from overseas governments and welfare organizations. This aid is channeled largely through the U. S. Catholic Relief Services National Catholic Welfare Con ference, the German Catholic Misereor Social Aid Fund, and similar agencies. Most of the op erating expenses for the projects· are covered by funds raised in the diocese.

Urges Dialogue To Spur Unity' WASHINGTON (NC)-Auxil iary Bishop Ernest L. Unterkoef ler of Richmond has urged that there be ~ore dialogue bet'ween Catholics and Protestants to pro mote the work of Christian unity. The Bishop spoke on "The Reconciliation of European Prot estants with the Holy See" at the National Shrine of the 1m. maculate Conception. Bishop Unterkoefler said in his sermon that "there is a need for us to have accurate knowl. edge of the theological position and of the life and worship among European Protestants." Small Groups "How can this be accom. plished?" he asked. "Certainly through the methOd of dialogue and serious conversation. In dialogue it will become evident that many points of Catholic doctrine are not correctly under. stood, for example, the theolog. ical doctrine of the salvation ,of non-Catholics, the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception of Our Blessed Lady. "Primarily the initial work must be accomplished by discus. sion among small groups of the ol~gians, priests and ministers," BIShop Unterkoefler stressed.

growth. Colin Clark,' Oxford University economist and population expert, has told students and faculty members of La Salle College: "Population growth is the driv. ing for c e behind economie growth. Stopping the so-called population explosion in countriel like India will also halt economie growth." "The U.S." he added, "instead of grumbling about the post-war baby boom, should welcome it!" Clark criticized what he called a policy of "growthmanship" in the U. S., defining this as "the fallacy that mere increases in capital expenditures will in. crease economic growth." He said "increases in capital and in the labor force are interdepend ent" for economy gains. "More capital does mean more production," Clark added, "but the main factors are the 'three Es' - education, enterprise and effort." Clark charged that "the Soviet ,(Union's) economy is falling far behind the U. S., and (Sovie.t Premier Nikita) Khrushchev knows it." He added that he is "appalled by the readiness of 11.

Bishop Russell lauds Interest Of Observers
WASHINGTON ' (NC) Communism's goal is domi aation of the world, in cluding the United States.
ALEXANDRIA (NC) Bishop John 1. Russell of Richmond said b:ei'e at a dinner given for priests· and
That is a plain fact, experts as sert, which the Free World, and particularly Americans, should keep constantly in mind. It is lelt that there is a special need to restate this fact, in view of ~ Communist party congress just held in East Germany and tile to-do made over the differ . ..ces reported to exist between elommunist Russia and Commu mst China. "I foresee no spectacular re ...ersal of communist methods or 8Oals," President Kennedy ad 'tlised Congress and the Ameri can people on the very eve of the· East Germany Red gath ..ing. "A dispute over how best to bury the Free World is no grounds for Western rejoicing," the President also warned, re ferring to the reports of the Sino-Soviet dispute. Same Goal Experts agree, as the Presi dent said, that communists all Ileve the same ultimate goal and • they are disagreeing it is only . . to how to achieve that end. The reason for Soviet-Chinese differences most frequently cited Is that the Chinese Reds want to spread communism right DOW by promoting and practisinb llevolution in other countries, 'trbile the Soviet Reds feel they ean get what they want by what 4I\ey call coexistence, but which til really deceit and subversion. Although he mentioned nei ther country by name, Fidel Castro, the Cuban Red, is widely legarded as having favored Peking over Moscow when, si ~ultaneously with the East &ermany Red meeting, he called Ax' revolutionaries in the West ero Hemisphere to rise up vio lently and seize power. 'Love Peace' There are very able authori
ties on communism who' say Red "hina is not bickering with Red Russia over whether or not there Ihould be a "big war.".They note that some in the United States lreve quoted the Peking People's DQily to show that Red China wants "a big war" and that Red Russia wants peace. These authorities quote the 8Ilme Peking People's Daily as .ying the people of China ''love peace" and that "China was an initiator of the Five Principles 01. Peaceful Coexistence." What· the two communist - dominated eountries are debating, these ex perts contend, is how to infil ....ate Free World countries and, bow ripe these countries are for Jlicking.

Study. Shared-Time Education -Proposal Catholic Schoel for Part-Time Students CHICAGO (NC) - Catholic school authorities here are cOn sidering carefully a shared-time education program in which from 250 to 400 Catholic pupils would take part initially. Msgr. William E. McManlls, superintendent of Chicago arch diocesan schools, said that if the program is agreed to by Catho,: lie public school authorities, it WOuld work as follows: The Catholic school system would buiid a new coeducational high school on the southwest side, a block or two from the three-million-dollar Kinzie Pub lic High School. The Catholic school, for which no name has yet been chosen; would have part-time students only. The pupils would take English, social studies and re ligion ·courses at the Catholic achool, and mathematics, science, foreign languages and vocational subjects at the public school. The public school would have both full and part-time students. Convert to Full-Time Msgr. McManus stressed that "the shared-time school will be an experiment, and not until the experiment has been in ef fect for some yeats will it be possible to decide whether this arrangement is a satisfactory form of education." "In fact, if the experiment should fail," he added, ''the pro posed Catholic school could readily be converted to a full time h?-ghschool structure."

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall Rive~Thurs;, Jan. 31, 1963
Catholic Press Month
A Leading Problem Dr. Mikhail Tadros, one of the observers at the Vati ean Council for the Coptic Church of Egypt, has put into words what many a Catholic· has felt to be a leading problem in the relationship of Catholic to non-Catholic Christian groups. After marvelling at the great charity shown the ob servers at the Council, -Dr. Tadros pointed out that the differences separating the Coptic Church from the Catho lic were mainly terminological misunderstandings further aggravated by a psychological error. Many Catholics have felt that in talking with non Catholics about religious beliefs there is'really basic agree ment in many instances but the language used to express the beliefs has concealed rather than revealed this. Many Catholics feel that the phrases they use phrases consecrated by many centuries of use -remain completely unintelligible to non-Catholics and serve only to underline differences rather than to clear up miscon ceptions.· . Many Catholics feel that perhaps they have been too jealous in keeping these expressions which mean little or nothing to non-Catholics and have reverenced words' at the expense of the coi\cepts they stand for. And no matter how venerable the language used and no matter how much reverence paid to the phrases of custom, there must be even more attention paid to the idea and more reverence for the truth that language, to be valid, must convey. So one of the great works of the Council is surely to express Catholic teaching with accuracy and without com promise but in language that the Twentieth Century non Catholic will understand. It could well be the most felicitous language would be that of the Scriptures and of the early Church Fathers. Non-Catholics can be encouraged to phrase their own beliefs in the same medium...so that the areas of agreement and difference would be the more evident. Dr. Tadros' second thought, that psychological error has heightened the separation between Catholics and other Christians, is also quite evident. The suspicions and . hostilities on both sides have seen a remarkable change in the last few years, and the virtue of charity, practiced with more sincerity than ever before, is really one of the almost miraculous events of the present era. . The emotional pressures brought about by the splits in Christendom in both the East and the West have been significantly lowered since the Second World War and men of good will have been seeking that which unites rather than emphasizing that which separates, have been talking to one another about their respective beliefs. However sen sible this all sounds, the facts are that it has not been done before. / Already, then, the Council is bearing fruit in that non Catholic Christian groups are struggling to see what Cath olic Faith is and are asking Catholics to tell them in words that they will understand. . The big obstacle seems to be the infallibility of the Pope. But even this need not be insurmountable. Once it is explained in the framework of the concept of the Church, the non-Catholic brothers may see it with more clarity than ever before. And the grace of God does work in the atmosphere of charity and clearness of truth.
Papal Volunteers
J
Reports are filtering back to the United States of the wonders being worked in a quiet and dedicated way by the young men and women from this country who have gone to Latin America as Papal Volunteers. One of the striking effects of the work of these volun teers is to attract those their own age to do the same work. Thus the Papal Nuncio to Peru has written that one mem ber of one of the leading families in the country has asked to associate himself with the work of the volunteers coming from America. And that is precisely what the volunteers aim to do. They realize that Christianity is not a set of beliefs only or even a series of laws. Christianity is a life to be lived it is Christ-it is being Christ and reacting like Christ in the face of every circumstance and problem. The great work of the volunteers is to live in the midst of people and show them Christ. It is to perform the cor poral and spiritual works of mercy because what is done for the least of the brethren is done for Christ. Such Christ-like attitudes and activities are bound to touch the minds and hearts of those among whom the work is done. And if it inspires these to a greater realiza tion of their own Christ-like role, then the Papal Volunteers have done what they went to do.

By REV. ROBERT W'. HOVDA, Catholic University TODAY-St. John Bosco, Con fessor. Childlikeness and inno cence are the themes of this Mass. Gospel and First Reading praise humility's tranquil trust in God, its freedom from anxi ety. And the latter purposes for our mature thought: "whatever things are true ... honorable ... just ..." It asks us to be capti vated again by penny candy (remember the song?), by the beauty of a tree, or by the effi ciency and perfection of a 20th century machine. Hopkins' poem "God's Grandeur" would be a good preparation for today's liturgy.
which feeds us with the life giving Body and Blood of the Lord. In the liturgy the Word continues to transform and ele vate the stuff of this world. ·MONDAY - st. Andrew Cor sini, Bishop, Confessor. So, while it is perfectly legitimate to speak of the first part of the Mass, the part of the service containing Bible readings and sermon, as "The Liturgy of the Word", it is also true that every act of Christian public worship is a liturgy of the Word. It is the Word of God which makes a saint of the bishop-confessor •we commemorate today. It is the Word of God which makes an instrument of sanctification out of the creatures and the human things of the liturgy.

The manifestation of His power and glory continues and is again as sociated with water, Baptism, the destruction of the kingdom of darkness. It is the power of the Word of God, a power which Christians meet particularly and especially in the public worship, the liturgy, of the Church. Sometimes "Word of God" and "sacraments" are discussed as if they could be separated, or even as if they were opposed. The contrary is true. It is the Word which makes the waters of Bap tism regenerative, it is the Word

Daniel Moore, editor of the St. Louis Review, newspaper of the St. Louis archdiocese and the Springfield-Cape Girardeau diocese. • "The purpose of this retreat is not to instruct Protestants in the Catholic Faith, Msgr. Kamp mann said. "Rather we simply want to help them grow spiritu ally, and to come closer 1;0 Almighty God."

The candidates had . been bap tized and were now being joy fully led into Church for the beginning of a new Easter. Of course, candlee had already been lit during the ceremony so that the vario~ ministers could see what they were doing during this solexma night. But now, lights were multi plied; everyone lit his candle not necessarily.. for more ligbll but especially so that each Chris tian could show forth and spread his joy. Accept and Be True In the present administratiOD of Baptism, the priest terminates the ceremony by presenting the new ChrisUan with symbolic gifts. First was tQe white robe of course it was one time more than just symbolism. Then he gives to the baptized (or spon. sor) a lighted candle. This is not only that he might be able to reminisce of the past celebratio~ of joy but that this lighted can dle might in some way reflect his own faithfulness to hill Baptism. "Be as true as this light," the priest seems to say. "Ever hold it straight so that its precious wax be not wasted away OIl the floor. Keep it out of dange.. ous draughts that its light might be useful and its life prolonged. May this new life granted to yotl today by the All Merciful Father be protected by you. May it not be carelessly exposed to unnee . essary dangers." .Joyful Banquet But symbolism was not enougtt.. The candles were brought to gether to make of the altar a glowing gem. The Sacrifice of the Mass was offered and at thM Banquet of banquets the new . Christians received their' First Communion (even babies). To mark the special occasion, milk and honey was also served at the "altar rail." The joy that the whole community felt on the occasion of baptisms seemed • not be able to find enough signs to express itself! Today we have again reverted to plain symbo),. ism-not only of that glorious meal of Christian Initiation but of the joy we hopefully are to be blessed with in heaven. This heavenly joy is often referred to as a banquet - a wedding. Christ referred to such a joY. and highly praised those assistanta who would have the fidelity and patience tQ await ·the bridal party--,.all the while careful to keep their .lights burning weD: (Matt. 25). This is the wish of the Church in giving th,e burn. ing light that when the "LOM come to claim His own, th01l mayest be worthy to greet Him with all the saints in heaven, and live forever and ever."

"My wife' has a problem I can't seem to help her IIOlve.

Your wife's problem is one of (he common type that involves more heart than head, Bill, and )'Ou are going to have to keep this in mind when looking for a solution. She probably has little difficulty in understanding the reasonableness of your advice in wecific situations, but unless you can show her how to resolve the deeper emotional problems resulting ~m her confused aense of conflicting loyalties and obligations, you won't help her much in the long run.

How can you help her? As I have suggested, Bill, yOll must st.art out by recognizing that the major source of her difficulties is her confused sense of con flicting family loyalties. and obligations. Having helped her analyze her complex feelings in this regard, you must then work out morally sound solutions for each aspect, one step at a time; for in all difficulties involving deep emo tions, careful analysis must pre cede solution, and only assurance based on sound moral principles aupplies sufficient conviction to overcome the debilitating, false sense of guilt that sensitive per:' sons usually experience when they must take a firm stand in dealing with those they love.

special love and esteem to all her relatives according to their degree 'of relationship to her, as an adult it is up to her to deter mine the frequency and extent of her association with them, and none of them have any direct claim on her in this regard. She needs to think through this point thoroughly, for she now feels obliged to associate with them at any cost and is un necessarily disturbed when they accuse her of partiality. Love, Affection Differ Furthermore, your wife must learn to distinguish between Christian love or charity and' affection. Charity must be uni versal and can be claimed by all; affection necessarily is lim ited in scope and must be earned rather than demanded. Your wife feels guilty when she loses her affection for one or the other of her quarreling re ,latives. This explains why she's a 'Isucker for the aid 'you don't . love me' routine," though under the circumstances they have for feited any claim to receive her affection. . Failure to' distinguish between charity and affeCtion is a com- . mon sOurce of guilt and painful confusion in .family relation ships, because sensitive mem';' bers often believe they must feel affection for others even though these others have destroyed any basis for it by their conduct. Focus of Loyalty Finally, although it is easy to understand why your wife is disturbed at the thought of all this fighting among her rela tives, she should carefully an alyze the nature of her concern in their affairs. It seems to me that she has not yet found herself.as an adult. This. is revealed in her anxiety to please everyone, her sensi tivity to obviously unjust criti cism, her reluctance to take a stand based on reason rather than emotion, and her sense of frustration resulting from the refusal to face the hard, uncom fortable reality that her rela- . tives display some distressing traits and eon~uct. If you are patient, Bill, I am sure you can help her think through this situation success.. fully. At present she is stillover dependent on her relatives and not a d e qua te 1y emotionally weaned from her family. Help her to realize that her future fulfillment and happiness must come primarily from the ne"w family unit that you are now in the process of building to gether. This mUst be the focus of her primary loyalties and the source of her self-assurance and security.

Weber, the steering committee's chairman, said: "The current public interest in education has clearly revealed the need for' a better under. standing of what our Catholic schools really are and how they fit into the American educational system. "This can be accomplished only by Catholic lay organiza tions working together to bring the story of Catholic education to 'the whole community. Our job'is to coordinate this effort."

The coordination of the ele ments that was decided on . during . the coordinating com mittee'smeeting will continue until March 10, Archbishop Krol said. Then reports be sub mitted on the action taken. .After the repOrts are reviewed and approved, they will be 'sent to the Council Fathers in 'printed :form around the middle of" March with ·the· request that commepts on them be returned by July 1. On the basis of the replies, a· final form of the "coordinated projects" will then be printed and be ready for the second ses-. sion of .the Council. PoPe's Directives Archbishop Krol stressed that the work done by the coordi nating commission is subject to the final approval of the Coun cil Fathers. He said that the material presented to them for the second session will be sub stantially the same as that now contained in the projects but that it will be presented in a different way.
The commission, the Ar~h
bishop said, kept before it the directives contained in the norms issued with Pope John's approval on Dec.6 "for the work during the interval between the first session of the Council and
the beginning of the second." The norms stated in part: "First of all it is necessary that from the various arguments treated and contained in the last booklet of the projects, the most important principles should be taken and submitted to exami nation, and particularly those which concern the Universal Church, the faithful and the whole human family. "The projects must be pre pared in s~ch a way that the more general p r inc i pIe s are treated, leaving particular prob lems aside. In fact, it should al ways be borne in mind that the .Ecumenical Council concerns the Universal Church and that its dispositions are permanently valid. "It is therefore advisable to avoid too many words and repe titions. All that concerns the future revision of the Code of Canon Law should be referred to the competent commission."

Highlights of the year's program included a per formance of Oscar Wilde's "The Birthday of the Infanta," with the school's dramatic club gain ing second prize in an area-wide contest with its pl,"esentation. The Glee Club offered "The Mikado," and Sister called the production "truly delightful to the eye and the ear. Picture our African girls as Japanese ladies and gentlemen in their kimonas and obis, with very effective wigs made out of sisal rope fibre, dyed black!" T h r e e American teachers

Ten Mary knoll priests and eight other American Sisters were among guests of honor. "In 10 years,' what have we accomplished?

.Father Murray is enthusiastic about work done in his' area by members of the Peace Corps. "They are doing. so much to give the lie to that much-heard phrase 'Yankee imperialism.'" In the parish, Peace Corps volun..· teers helped the Maryknollers with accounting in the credit union. Other activities Include a food program for school children, under which 100,000 are fed, under supervision of one of the' A zan gar 0 Maryknollers. A Maryknoll Sister doctor runs the parish ~linic and "is getting more patients all the time, up to 60 a day. It is good to see the Indi. ans going to a doctor rather than relying on their superstitious practices." Uniformly, the missioners ask prayers. Uniformly, they are grateful for help given them by their home Diocese through the good offices of the Diocesan Society for the Propagation of the Faith, which maintains a par ticularly close contact with all missionaries from Fall River.

There has never been a Councn in the historJ' of the Church where there were more martyrs present than at this Twent,. Second Council. The only one which conld compa.re with It was the Council of Nicea, which took place after the Roman persecu tions, but the total of bishops at that Council did not equal the number of martyrs. at this one. When we speak of martyrs, we do not mean "wet martyrs" but "dry martyrs." "Wet martyrs" shed their blood and die once; "dry martyrs" are brought 110 the point of death through brain-washing, torture and imprisonment and "die" a thousand deaths without dying. The Romans during the persecutions wanted the blood of Christians. The Commu nists know that "the blood of martyrs is the seed of Christians"; they seek their souls, not their blood.

Under such a view, the pupil's burden in ob taining an education may be eased and he is allowed a free choice of schools." In the Everson case, the na tion's highest court held in 1947 that a public school district in New Jersey did not violate the Constitution by paying transpor tation costs for Catholic school pupils. It said this was a help to parents to get their children safely to and from accredited schools and not a violation of proper Church-State relations. McKay's comment about tui tion grants is directly related to a bill introduced in CoRgreSS by Rep. James Delaney of New York.

If we added up the number of years served in prison by the bishops at the Council, they would amount to at least 500 years. Two of the bishops whom I saw walk to their seats every morning had taken part in 'death' marches. An American Officer wrote of them: "Every time I saw him, exhausted though he was, he was carrying a man on his back." Another bishop, from Yugoslavia, was imprisoned at the same time as Arch bishop Stepinac. Witnesses state that when ever he went out for a walk in the priSQn yard doves would fly down and rest on his ahoulders. The Communists killed the doves because they said they were "carrying mes- f, sages."
Who are these men! The,. are, as Scripture calls them; "Witnesses to Christ,.. for that IS Uie m~ of martyrs. And there we were. Ameri ean bishopS from our prosperous land, privUege4 to walk, talk'. sit and eat with' those who could sa,. with Paul: "I am A"lad of my sufferings on 70ur behalf as, in this mortal frame of mind, 1 help payoff the debt which the affiictions of Christ still leave to be paid, for the sake of Dis Body, ,the Church." The Divine guarantee of the success of the Council ,is the Holy Spirit; the human guarantee of success is the martyr- bishopa who help redeem the rest of us. The God in heaven knows that we in the United States have to become martyrs too-not blood"; martyrs, not brain-washed-martyrs, but prayer-martyrs and money m.artyrs fm. the sake of the Church. W~ American bishops, priests, religious and laity are part of the same Mystical Body as they are. They are saving the world; we must save them. To say to these martyrs, "There are no' more Mass stipends" or ''Re member that we only get an average per-capita contribution o~ 27 cents from United States Catholics each year to aid you" is to break one's heart.

DUBLIN (NC) It is time to get "rid of the old-fashioned idea that education should end at 14, or 16 or 25 years of age," ac cording to Father E. J. Kent, S.J., prefect of studies of the Catholic Workers' College 'here. Father Kent said in his annual report that "this is more partic ularly so in the modern world when the fields of man's knowl. edge are expanding, when the adult working population finds itself with more leisure, adults are more open to the acceptance of ideas tmd ideals of question able value and doubtful trllth." The Jesuit said, however, that adult education as it is being developed by the Catholic Workers' College is still in the pioneering stage. College diplomas were pre sented on the occasion to 63 men students who had attended lec tures and discussions for four years and had undergone four oral examinations. Thirty-seveR women students who attended' for two years and sat for two orals also received displomas. lege tournament captured the third place ranking.

Ignoring God Leads to Statism
I
WASHINGTON (NC) - The president of Georgetown Univer sity told a gathering of govern ment officials and diplomats at a Red Mass here that the tyranny of statism results when societies ignore God. True law guides human nature "to the perfection and self-real. ization which is its God-given prerogative," said Father Ed. ward B. Bunn, S.J., at a Mass offered in St. Matthew's cathe.
dral by Archbishop Patrick A.
O'Boyle of Washinghm.
At the Mass were some 30
Federal court judges, headed by
U. S. Chief Justice Earl Warren·;
more than 20 senators; a delega tion of some 200 representatives, headed by Speaker of the House John W. McCormack; and diplo. mats from more than 40 nations, including representatives of the Organization of American States. Nature of Man In his sermon at the Red Mass, offered to invoke God's blessing on members of the legal profession, 'Father Bunn said: "Law emanates from and termi nates in the heart, the soul, the nature of man himself - and these, in turn, owe their being, their powers and their impulse toward self-perfection from the purposive creation of God." "In the final analysis," he continued, "it is only in terms of man's -;- or society's - ideas of God, ... and of the relationships existing between man, individ ually and socially with his Cre ator, that it is possible to con. struct any' adequate, satisfying scheme of human happiness, and of the means to achieve it. "In a very real sense, there are no atheists, for wherever men do not know, or reject, or ignore the God of creation and of Rev. elation, they are impelled to set up other gods of their own de. vising." . ''The final stage is reached," he said, "when the state sets it self up as its own god, as the end
Father P'eyton Plans Crusade CLEVELAND (N C ) Father Pat ric k Peyton, C.S.C., wit h characteristic energy, is deep in plaris to add a Children's Crusade to his Family Rosary Crusade and to expand the over-all program. He has entered the new phase because of worldwide needs - particularly in Latin America - and because of a suggestion made to him by Pope John. He revealed in an 'int~rview here that in a recent papal audience Pope John blessed the crusade and asked him to "reach out to the young who are the world's future." Bishops Aid The Holy Cross priest has plunged into his "children's crusade" plans by making flying trips to consult with mothers superior and provincials in various eastern and midwestern cities to help him to approach children t h r 0 ugh Catholic schools. He also appealed to bishops in several eastern states and re ported that before he got as far west as Cleveland, he had been promised pulpits for 52 Sundays :for financial appeals in the coming year.

"The universities of Latin America must produce the engi neers, the agriculturai experts and the technicians essential to developing 20th century econo mies," he told the conference at Cardinal Stritch College. Land Grant Colleges Brademas said he was espe cially gratified at efforts to in volve U.S. land grant colleges in cooperative programs with Latin American universities. "What every Latin American country needs," he said, "is a University of Wisconsin, a Purdue, a Uni versity of Minnesota to produce better farmers, more engineers, mQre teachers and public ad. ministratorS." The congressman, a member of the House Education and Labor Committee, said that AID is now giving help to nearly 50 Latin Arne ric a n universities through contracts with 24 U.S. universities.

Devout, Fervent Augustinian Priest Lauds Devotion
Of Japan's 300,000 Catholics
MIAMI (NC) - Despite social pressures, Japan's 300,000 Cath olics remain devout and fervent, according to an Augustinian priest whose order founded and operates the only parochial school in Japan. Father Edward J. Hattrick O.S.A,. who has returned to the United States after spending more than four years in .Naga saki, spoke at Biscayne College, South Florida's first Catholic men's colI e g e opened last
September by the Augustinian Fathers of Villanova, Pa. Emphasizing that "Nagasaki is the center of Catholicism" in
Prelates. Stress Role of CCD LAFAYETTE (NC)-A bishop cautioned here in Louisiana that "a superficial knowledge of our Faith is nQt adequate for these times." "The problem of religious in. . struction is a grave one and the Confraternity of Christian Doc. trine is our best answer for the large percentage of our children attending public schools," Bishop Maurice Schexnayder of Lafay. ette declared. The bishop was a speaker at the second annual CCD Day- for the Lafayette diocese. He recall ed the words of Pope John-"In the CCD lies the future of the Church, not only in the U. S., but in the whole world." Auxiliary Bishop Warren L. Boudreaux of Lafayette empha sized the importance of a hard working good will committee in the diocesan CCD. He said the purpose of the committee is "to make the walls of misunder standing, of prejudice, of hatred, which separate us from those. • outside - to make those walls, like the walls of Jerico, come tumbling down."

Country-wide Talks "The poor, who belong to Jesus Christ, are our lords and masters and we are hardly worthy of rendering them our petty services." Such was the at titude of St. Vincent de Paul in dealing with the poor. Such in part are some of the ideas devel oped by these courses based on similar talks given throughout the country. The plan most close ly followed here was used ex tensively in San Francisco and Washington. The Society of St. Vincent de ·Paul was founded in Paris in May, 1833 by Frederick Ozanam, then a law student at the Sor. bonne.

Japan Father Hattrick said that 2,300 persons cQmprise Our Lady of Consolation parish staffed by Augustinians in Nagasagi. "All of them had relatives killed when the atomic bomb was dropped," he added, pointing out that the during the Mass celebrated annually on the an niversary of the bombing, the natives are led in prayer by a Japanese badly burned in the blast. Another survivor of the blast, he said, is the first nation vo

"Today in Nagasaki," he said, "if you become a Catholic you take a step down socially and associate yQurself with those who are poor and uneducated." Communism at Peak Despite this obstacle, he added, Father Hattri'ck and the other· two Augustinian priests with whom he works had 30 converts last year. The young priest, due to spend six months in the United States before returning to Nagasaki, said that "communism as an in tellectual attraction has reached its peak in Japan. University professors want to be popular and therefore teach communism, but the students who lean toward communism do so only because of their great curiosity. They like the complications of it, yet they are succeeding with out it."

"It is my .recommendation that this section be repealed to allow all children to ride OIl . public school buses," he said.

HILLSIDE (NC) -EducatioB in Russia isn't all it's cracked up to be in the American press, according to a Catholic youth leader back here in New Jersey frqm a two-month trip in the Soviet Union.

I.nsists Labor, Management
Have Social Responsibility
By Msgr. George G. Higgins
Director, NCWC Socia.l Action Depa.rtment
In last week's column I suggested that the unions and
employers involved in the New York newspaper strike and
the Gulf and East Coast longshorem~n's strike have hurt
the cause of collective bargaming in the United States by
their failure ta make it work "there is one and only one social
in their own industries. In responsibility of business-to use
other words, they have 'failed its resources and engage in ac- "
to bargain "responsibly" and tivities designed to increase its
bave not shown due regard for "'e public interest. There are • any Ameri. eans, however,
on both sides of tile labor-man iagement fence Who tlbject to ~e lat~er termi eology, who say, in effect, that
labor and man egement should DOt be expected to exercise "so cie.l responsibil a,-" and should not be expected to worry about the public inter
...
Even some of the newspapers end magazines which have been .ost critical of the unions and tmployers involved in these Ib,ikes take this view. They seem -. ~ saying that one or the lither ar both of the parties in 1I01ved in these strikes are acting llresponsibly. One Purpose However, they are on record _ arguing that under the Amer En system of free enterprise 4b.e :>ne and only purpose of labor and management is to look after· the interests of their own eonstituents - their own mem-' bers, in the case of unions, and tIleir own stockholders in the . ..Be of management. Some of our academicians IIlave' been saying substantially tile same thing for a long time .. scholarly books, monographs, ..ticles and speeches. In "l new book which has re eeivM more than - its share of -rave" reviews in the conserva Ove press, Milton Friedman, pro lessor of economics at the Uni ~sity of Chicago, flatiy asserts ihat to talk about the "social re aponsibility" of labor and man 8gemf.'nt in the context of col )active bargaining is 90 much DOnsense. Serve Themselves 'Those, he maintains, who ar cue that corporate officers and labor leaders have a "social re ilPonsibility" fundamentally mis 1IDderstand the character and eature of a free -economy. "In IIUch an economy," he argues,

profits so long as it stays within
the rules of the game * * *"
"Sirnilarly," says Professor
Friedman, "the 'social responsi bility', of labor leaders is to serve the interests of the members of their unidns." The !lotion, he concludes, that either labor leaders or employ ers have a 'social responsibility'
which goes beyond serving the interests' of their own members or stockholders is a. "fundamen tally subversive doctrine"-sub versive, that is, of economic fresedom.
Against Responsible Union
Mr. Jack Barbash, an extreme ly competent labor economist, speaking at an industrial rela tions conference shortly after Professor Friedman's book was published, gave equally short shrift to the doctrine of "social responsibility." Mr. Barbasch complained that unions are too often judged by a double standard. They are asked, he said, to prac.tice self denial, whereas management is expected to be "dynamic." The public, he continued, talks about the .mion's responsibility to the public but not about the public's responsibility to the union. Up tq this point, Mr. Barbash, it seems to me was making a valid point. But during the dis cussion period following his pre pared address he went the way of Mr. Friedman-even though, presumably, he would disagree with 1'..1r Friedman's premises, which are those of old-fashioned classical economics. "I'm really against a 'respon sible union'," Barbash told his distinguished audience of indus trial relations experts. "An irre sponsible union is what keeps management 'on its toes. YOll can't run an economy with self denial," CompulsorJ' Arbitration These statements by Mr. Fried man and Mr. Barbash are fraught with ,;ome rather disturbing im plications. In effect, they are saying to labor and management: "Don't worry about the public interest. Ask for and try to get as much as the traffic will bear, let the devil take the hindmost." If labor and management were to follow this advice, the govern ment, sooner or later, would have to step in to protect the public interest and conceivably might even be tempted, under the pressure of public opinion,
to plunk for compulsory arbitra
tion as a means of bringing at least a modicum of "social re
sponSIbility" into the process of collec~ive bargaining. . If this were to happen, both Mr. Friedman and Mr. Barbash would undoubtedly regard it as a genuine catastrophe. But jf they really think labor and man ageDlent should not be expected to exercise s,ocial responsibility, then they must be prepared to have the government go to what ever lengths may be necessary to protect the geDElral welfare. No Administration in the sec ond nalf of the 20th century is going to sit idly by and permit la bor and management to hand the dirty end of the stick to the gen eral public. To paraphrase Mr. Barbash, you 'can't run a gov ernment with this kind of one sided or unilateral self-denial.

New York Solon Re-i ntrod uces Aid Measure WASHINGTON (NC) Rep. James J. Delaney of New York again has intro duced his bill to give each school child a Federal 'grant which could be spent at' any school, public or private. Identical to a measure he sponsored in the 87th Congress, the bill proposes that a flat $20 be given to each grade or high school pupil. The program would cost $1.7 billion over a two-year period. In the case of children who attend, or wish to attend, recog nized private schools, the bill provides that a pa~ent or legal guardian present the U.S. Com missioner of Education with a form recording the pupil's inten_ tion. . A U.S. Treasury check then would be sent the parent or guardian. It would be honored' for paYDlent only when endorsed to the school of the pupil's at tendance. All pupils who 00 not record their intention to attend a pri vate school would be presumed under the bill's ter.ms to be going to a public school. The allotment for these children would be paid to the local education agency in the political subdivi sion where the child lives. . Known as the "Junior GI BiU" because of the similarity it has to the operation of the law which permitted millions of arDled sen1ce veterans to attend the school of their choice after World War n, the bill was first introduced in 1962 by Delaney. However, it died without com mittee hearings.

_Big Cities Need Halfway Hous·es DETROIT (NC) America's famed "hoodlum priest" took a swipe at the idea that "all we have to do. is build jails and when convicts come out they will smell sweet." Father Dismas Clark, S.J., of St. Louis said: "I have never met anybody who improved in prison." . The developer 'of "halfaway houses" for paroled convicts st~ted his views of the American penal system in a talk (Jan. 15) to students at the University of Detroit. ," The Jesuit priest criticized the imprisonment of people with emotional and psychological problems. 'Take the Best' "Throwing alcoholics, dope . addicts and perverts in jail , won't help them," he said. "They need treatment. If you put them in prison as just plain neurotics or psychotics, they will come out criminally neurotic· and
psychotic." •
Father Dismas cited the suc cess of his St. Dismas House in St. Louis. "We have had 1,500 men come into the home and less than 15 have returned to prison," he stated. And we take the best nothing but thieves and mur derers." Father Dismas said that on the national aVerage eight out of 10 ex-convicts go back to prison.
Government Aid He said that there are pres ently 13 privately operated half way houses in the U.S: and Canada modeled after Dismas House. Among his greatest comforts is the fact that the Federal gov ernment is showing interest in this method of rehabilitation. . ST. HYACINTH He said that U.S. Att. Gen.

jobs of the New England colle giate basketball season. As 'a re sult, Brown University went on to post a 53-46 win over the strong Huskies. In the words of Coach Stan Ward, it was a "bril liant defensive effort that had a great deal to do with our win ning." He was referring to Fran Driscoll's job of lassoing ~"U's ace steerer Paul Solberg. Dris coll so agressively dogged Sol berg that he went scoreless for 30 minutes. But there's a tale at tached to young Mr. Driscoll, the 19 year-older who might have called it 'quits' a year ago. Son of Mr. and Mrs. George Driscoll, he is a member of St. John's Parish, Attleboro. Driscoll came to Brown as an excellent high school prospect. He had perform ~d well for Coach Howard Tozier at Attleboro
High where he had beeR pri marily a basketball cornerman. He was also a crackerjack pitch
er and - halfback - with top
grades to match. He seemed a natural, and, in fact, he turned in a fine first year. But playing, with Frosh teams is not like playing with the big boys. Perseverance As a sophomore Driscoll tan into the transition 'jinx'. He had a difficult time adjusting, and it was obvious he had considerable learning to do. As Coach Ward
put it "He didnOt do a great
deal." He could get points, but
defensively he was deficient. He had to play in spots while he battled to learn to play honest defense. Coupled with that, as Ward put it, "He had to make , the conversion from the corner to the backcourt, and it's not easy. It's a 40 or 50 to 1 shot a boy can do it." To complicate matters, as if . picking up new skills were not enough, Driscoll developed a severe case of tendonitis, an acute infection attributed to a virus. Sick, Driscoll missed three weeks of practice during the middle of the season. Many kids would have tossed in the togs at this point, but Driscoll came back and finished out the 'bal ance of the schedule. "Unquestionably this kid had the elasticity and perseverance to,make it," Ward said. He came on in the last five ballgames, hitting a personal high of 15 points against Dartmouth in the next-to-last tilt of the season. While he wound up with a rather anemic 3.7 scoring aver age for twenty ballgames (many of them spot appearances), Dris coll accomplished something in
finitely more important. He had arrived as a varsity competitor. All the Way This season Driscoll's been in there all the way. On top of that, he's enjoying his first semester in college as a student (he's a business major). He's currently the Bear's second highest scorer with 141 points in twelve con tests. Only 6-7 Gene Barth, Brown's captain, heads Driscoll in the scoring department. In cluding the Northeastern game, Fran was just under a 12 points pet-game average. But it's his defensive work that has Coach Ward smiling. The Northeastern game was only one of several fine guarding jobs. In the RI State game, won by the Bruins, 63-52, Ward gave Driscoll the unenviable job of trying to shackle Rhody's Dick Logan. "We knew we had to shut off Logan if we hoped to win. We .conceded points to Steve Chubin and Charlie Lee,' the other two-thirds of the Ram'.
offense, in hopes of sileneing
Logan." It worked. Despite giv ing away four inches to Logaa, Driscoll held him to three fieW &oala.
FRAN DRISCOLL
Aside trom his newly acquired defensive skills, Driscoll is an exceptionally fine jump shooter who moves off screens very well. He's also a deft passer off the drive, an art he learned so well as a pupil of Coach Tozier at Attleboro. Chances are the scor ing average will climb even more next season as Driscoll continues to mature as a Bruin backcourt operator. His immedi ate concern right now is to get Brown in the Ivy League win. ning column. Now 5-7 on the campaign, Brown has dropped four successive in Ivy play, His teammates like him. Dris
coll's very personable with an engaging sense of humor that he doesn't overuse. Occasionally, in Ward's words, "He has a tend
ency to get down on himself,
but he fights out of it very quickly. That's because he's such
a fierce competitor."
He is on academic scholarship
at Brown, 'but earns part of his
way by serving as a freshman
physical education instructor. He
also pitches for the Brown base
balI team, but, unfortunately
came down with a sore flipper
last Spring that minimized his
effectiveness. He also hits well.
The whole Brown athletic de-
. partment hopes he'll be able to
take a regular tum on the mound
when baseball time rolls around.
He means that much to the team.
In the meantime, Ward is hop. ing that Driscoll will continue his fine court progress over the remaining twelve tilts on the challenging Bear schedule There are some real "toughies" coming up, particularJy the March 5th and 7th dates with in-state _____ rivals R. 1. and Providence Col-'''' lege. He calls the Driscoll story the story of a boy "who wouldn't quit. And that's the real test of character."
