' "There is a growing conviction among military leaders," Father Lane said, "that our troops in Vietnam are better than their e~ads in World War II, and better than their older brothers in Korea." "T,hese are teenagers. Respect them," he declared. Citin the problems faced by "oung men in military service today, the chaplain said that some of them are "built in." These young men, he asserted, come from a society that has encouraged them to be individ ualists, and has neglected to in culcate a respect for authority including that of parents, teach ers and law enforcement - in them. "Milita,ry leaders have no con trol over the raw material they receive," Father Lane said. "Mil itary service in itself is neutral. It won't make a good man bad or a bad man good."

Education Board To Close School In New Bedford
What
The Diocesan School Board, at its meeting last week, Is
voted regretfully to approve the closing of St. Hyacinth A Synod?
The convocation of a dioc esan synod is not an every day occurrence in the life of a diocese. The tremendous study, evaluation, planning un dertaken by so many in a dio cese gives it a special importance. 'H;owever, the holding of a synod should not be the cause of alarm. It does not mean that the particular diocese is in Some kind of a crisis. It is an impor tant, but normal, step in the careful· and conscientious admin istration of a diocese. ,The general law of the Church understands that there are to be periodical synods in the life of each diocese-one every ten years.

CINCINNATI (NC) - Arch bishop Karl J. Alter called on priests of the Cincinnati arch diocese to reemphasize "the fact that t:le Mass is a community and social act· of worship, as directed from an individual one." He urged emphasis in the pres ent year on two additional as pects of the Mass liturgy, -"That it is a public act of worship as distinct from a pri vate devotion." -"That it is a memorial of Christ's death, resurrection, and! ascension; a true sacrificial gift of the whole Church in union with Christ the High Priest; a banquet to which the faithful are invited as guests to the table of the Lord; the primary exercise of the priesthood of the laity in U' ',n with the ordained priest at the altar." Expressing confidence that these "essential features of the liturgy" already had been ex plained, the archbishop said "repetition is necessary to have these truths sink deep into the 'minds and hearts of our parish ioners."

WASHINGTON (NC)-More than 40 bishops met in oorecutive session here. for two days to prepare for the meeting of the U. S. hierarchy on April 10-13 in Chieago. Acting in the dual capacity of administrative committee of %he National Conference of this field and for encouraging Catholic Bishops and admin istrative board of the U. S. their prayers and financial sup for works of communica Gatholic Conference, the port tion. ~ishops reviewed preliminary rreports of ad hoc committees set op at their November meeting, and of USCC departments in preparation for the general meeting of the bishops in Chi cago in April. Since all the reports were only j!)reparatory, they were not made public. It was noted, however, that the reports included such topics as pastoral councils, the li'etirement of bishops, and the' National Newman Apostolate.. The bishops approved submit iing a proposal in April that the National Conference of Bishops meet twice a year, instead of once-in the fall during the w;eek J!n which Nov. 15 occurs, and again in the second week after Easter Sunday. OOD Source Book It was also decided that the lYCCB administrative committee and the USCCadministrative board would meet four times. a ;rear, instead of twice. The extra meetings were considered neces aary in view of the amount of work that must be done to 1m.:. plement (,the decisions Of' the Second Vatican Council. In November,the bishops bad lilUthlMized the Confraternity of ebristian Doctrine to develop a oouroe book for catechetical in atrucflOR. A plan to carry out tbii authorization was discussed lit this week's meeting, with the proPtlsal of a coordinator to bring together the wor,k of those preparing different parts of the

In an interview with El Alca \Illr, a dally newspaper. published by Opus Dei, an apostolic asso eiation of priests and laity, Bel gian-born August Albert Vanis tendael said the Spanish govern ment-controlled labor 'unions do "not take into account the Span llflh workers' desires." Vanistendael called for n "'complete liberalization of gov <amment labor unions." He said the prospect of a new law on labor unions "is a great oppor tunity to attempt" the needed

He said that although presslll'e rna)" be exerted on legislators. by those who would favor such a change; the enactment of the- bill .would be a shock "to· a large· nwnbc:' of people of Arizona'."

"Bishop Bernard T, Espe}age of Gallup, in whose jurisdiction is the northern part of Arizonac, has asked that I inform you that he is equally disturbed about this bill." Bishop Green said. He questioned. the extent of the legal and medical profes sions' support of the bill, and· noted there is considerable dis agreement 01ll the issue within these gields.

'Multi-Ethnic' Books In Grea1l'e.' Supply WASHINGTON (NC) - The number of "multi-ethnic" text books listed by the National Education Association has in creased from 25 to 400 in the past III months. John S. Gibsl)ll, director of the Lincoln Filene Center for Citi zetiship and Public Affairs at Tufts University, says -that be cause of the emergence of new nations in Africa, "the minority status of the white man will be come increasingly apparent" in years. to come, and teaching materials are as important as integrated classrooms -in prepar ing students to live in such a world. Gibson believes the failure of textbooks to present· multi ethnic images in the past had effected children's'values, partic ularly those of Negroes, very "early in the game." A Negro child, he pointed out, is "keenly aware" of his color at the age of four and realizes its "liabilities" in terms of his future.

ROCHESTER (NC)-The age at which the Sacrament' of Con firmation is administered will be raised in the diocese of Roches o tel' from the usual 9 to 13 to 17 or 18. Bishop Fulton J. Sheen an nounced the change, which will be implemented gradually over ~he ne'xt f've years, at an annual conference of diocesan teachers at the Columbus Civic Center here. He told some 1,300 teachers present that the change would be made because "bishops are now being a~ked to confirm ll-year old tot~ who haven't yet reached the age Qf puberty. We have for gotten there are' three ages of youth-birth, puberty and ma turit~·."
Maturity, he said, is essential to the proper reception of the . sacrament and most youths are not ready to become lay workers for Christ until' they are read~ to graduate from high school. Bishop Sheen also announced he will ask educators of the dio r~e to prepare a new course preparatory to the reception of Confirmation so that those to be confirmed may learn a"reveren't and prudent attitude toward sex, a concrete and practical love of neighbor and an understandin~ of the spirit of Christ in coatJ'll'l4 to· the spirit of the world.

"It is not hard f~r one to do a bit of good. What is hard is to do good all one;s life.• ' ••-
This quotation could, of course, be 1;aken from any talk
by any spiritual writer or speaker. As a matter rif. faet
it is one of· the quotations from Chairman M-aoTse-tung '~f China, and he is speaking in the framework of c~mmUIlist :revolution and the necessity ()[ each person's doing not a bit of good once in a while but consistent good for the lake of the' party and the revolution. . .Christian~,ty is also revolution. The ancient Christian ' term for Lent is ,Christian Warfare. The purpose of Ghris-, tianity and of. Lent is' to revolutionize lives, to' remake and to reshape, to establish a ,new )ife. For this to be done, the old life has to be ass'Rulted and re'mopeledaf,ter the pattern of Chri,st. The methods' ~re prayer and penance and alms gIving and the living consistently of the life of the Christian ,revolutionary. It means doing good all one's life. It 'is rather sad to consider that those who are bent on establishing a program of atheistic Communism are so much aware of the means that should be; u'sed ~ indeed, they have taken over the purposes and techniques of Christianity and have substituted the city of man for the city of God, the state for the Almighty. It shows that the goals and methods of Christianity are valid 'for revolutionizing the lives of men. But have they been used?

CHICAGO (NC) - The chief officer of the Knights of Colum bus declared here that the moral sense of <the U, S. is in need of r.habilitation as much as the nation's cities. Supreme Knight John W. Mc Devitt made the observation in an address following a cere mony which raised some knights to the fourth and highest degree attainable in the 1.2 million member fraternal society of Catholic men. McDevitt recalled the words 011 George Washington's farewetll address in which he warned that no genuine and effective democ racy can exist unless it is based on a national morality of firm religious principles. I "1 regret to say that the moran landscape of America today gives evidence of blight alld de cay which were not part of the robust ethical life which George Washington envisioned," the K. of C. official declared. "One moral disease 011 our landscape is the increasing en shrinement of violence and the tendency to confound democl'acy with mobocracy, There seems W be an insidious assumption on the part of some groups in ou" society that constructive progresD can be made only by a resort t() violence because violence makes headlines and focuses attentioJm on t1' problem they are trying to coned," McDevitt said.

Pontiff Supports Bishops' Overseas Aid Fund Appeal
THE ANCHOR-
Thurs., Feb. 23, 1967
Faithful to Vote
DETROIT (NC)-Pope Paul VI has issued a personal appeal to the bishops of the United States for aid to "the untold millions of people on this earth, our brothers in the' human family, who have to live their lives sometimes with alit even the basic necessi ties." The Pope's plea was worldwide relief organization of made in a letter to the U.S. U. S. Catholics, which last year aided more than 40 million bishops supporting their needy people in 80 countries.
1967 Overseas Aid Fund Appeal and made public here by Arch bishop John F. Dearden, presi dent of the administrative board, U. S. Catholic Conference. With a minimum goal of $5 million, the 21st annual appeal will be conducted generally throughout the country from Feb. 25 to March 5, culminating with the traditional Laetare Sunday (March 5) collection in more than 18,000 parishes. The Pope told the bishops of the "source of comfol't and con solation" the appeal has been to him and his predecessors. "The helping hand of you, the hierarchy of the United States of America, is a manifestation," he said, "not only of your well known charity but also, in these days, of your desire to imple ment fully the words and spirit of t'1e ecumenical council which reasserted that men are obliged to come to the relief of the poor, and to do so not only out of their superfluous goods.", Aided 40 Million "In this praiseworthy endeavor to feed the hungry, clothe the naked and comfort the suffer ing," he continued, "you are as sisted most generously by your faithful people, who give so will ingly to the fund set up for this purpose, and who particularly share of their goods in the col lection which you organize for' Laetare Sunday." The annual bishops' appeal sustains Catholic Relief Services,

WASHINGTON (NC) The first joint Catholic Protestant Consultation on Youth Work has decided to strive for establishment of an inter-religious task force to pur sue opportunities for joint study and action. The consultative group, com posed of representatives of the Youth Department of the United States Catholic Conference and the Youth Ministry Department of the National Council of Churches, also committed itself to meet on a regular basis "to continue to identify common problems and develop possible means of cooperation and joint action." Apostolic Ministry Participants in·a far-ranging discussiOl agreed with the Sec ond Vatican Council's Decree on the Apostolate of the Laity which states that "Young people themselves should become the first and immediate apostle to the youth * ,. *" Msgr. Frederick J. Stevenson, retiring director of the usce Youth Department, and Rev. John S. Wood, executive director of the NCC's Department of Youth Ministry, were in charge. Mr. Wood said, "since the Second Vatican Council we have increasingly become aware of the common ,calling of the whole Church to minister to the youth of this generation." Msgr, Stevensonstrl~ssed that the "forms and modes. of youth, ministry and programs, are in . need of renewlu and' agiiorna ,~ento if ~hey are apt to be faith-, ful means of ap,ostolic' ministry , and 'present in the Ufe ami' world of'yo~th."

Home Masses Paterson Bishop Casey Again Encourages Continuance in New Jersey Diocese PATERSON (NC) - Bishop Lawrence B. Casey said he will continue to encourage celebration of Mass in private homes in the Paterson diocese. The practice, which has grown in popularity in recent months, had come under question due to a recent Vatican decree on litur.., gical experimentation. The Bishop explained that the document's objections to "family Eucharistic banquets celebrated in pri'vate homes, and ,followed by a meal" 'do ,'not apply to , proper M,a/lS~S., celebrated ill , homes on portable altars., , 8..uO*ioDfi ' Felt.

ST. B~RNARD (NC) - Mem bers of St. Clement's parish in this Ohio community will vote on whether to use available par ish funds for improvements in the' church building which was seriously damaged by fire in 1963. Father Albert Senn, O.F.M., pastor of the 1 17-year-old pal'ish, said that approximately $25,000 had been earned as interest on parish investments in the past year. Adult parishione:.1 who use church-support envelopes were eligible to vote on the use of the funds by placing a ballot in their envelopes in Sunday's church collection. The parish has been conduct ing a "very successful" campaign for funds for a new church, Father Senn reported, with about $600,000 collected so far. However, erection of a new church is tied in with St. Ber nard's urban renewal program, which may require a wait of three to five years more before construction begins. Meanwhile, temporary repairs have been made but the interior of the church still bears the scars of the 1963 fire, The question voted on Sunday was whether to use the $25,000 interest earned last year to paint the church interior, install an acoustic-tile ceiling, and add new light fix tures to improve the church for the intervening years.
which have them leads me to hope that they will be continued for pastoral reasons," the Bishop stressed. In a related matter, Bishop Casey pointed out that so-called folk Masses are not affected by the decree which objected to "music of a totally profane and worldly character not worthy of the sacred action."
VATICAN CITY (NC) -The number of priests in the world is not keeping up with the increase in the number of Catholics, ac cording to an annual report of the Congregation of Seminaries and Universities. At present there are one diocesan priest for every 4,083 Catholics in the U. S.; one for every 1,150 in Europe and one for every 10,549 in Asia IIlnd Africa.

Its subject includes the nature, purposes, conditions, themes and participants in ecu menical dialogues.
