Catholic Educational Association Document Backs School System WASHINGTON (NC)-A doc ument prepared from the rec ommendations of a high level IIIYDlposium on, Catholic educa tion held here underscores the commitment of the Catholic ehurch to maintaining its vast parochial school system. Despite calls by some Catholic mtics for a dismantling of the eatholic school system, the doc ument states that "The Church ,will always maintain an insti tutional base for educational service, an enduring bu.t flex ible structure by which to place ber resources at the service of toeiety." The document takes note of Criticisms of the parochial IIChools - including the charge that their operation puts a dis proportionate amount of money and manpower at the service of less than 50 per cent of Catholic students-but concludes that "it would be premature to urge massive redeployment of Cath olic educational resources into Dew patterns of Christian edu mtion." Objective Studies The statement acknowledges, however, the "evident need for well designed programs of re search and experiment aimed at obtaining reliable data to guide decisions about the most pro ductive use of resources." "These studies should be sci entific and objective, should have reasonable financial and personnel support, and should be guided by previously stated criteria of success," it says. The document is based on the recommendations of more than 100 Catholic and non-Catholic educators, writers, representa tives of private agencies and' government officials who took p~rt in a symposium on Catho-' lic education sponsored here last Fall' by' the National Catholic. Educational Associatio'n (NCEA). ,Its reco~endatlons were, ~ade public in a preliminary ctraft last November, and the most noticeable difference in ~ definitive, edi~ text Is a reduction in size, according to .,a t he r C. Albert' Koob, O.Praem., e:ll:ecutive secretary of tile NCEA. , 'Remarkable Paraller 'At press conference called to pUb~icize the report, Father Koob called the document a ....Istoric" one which highlighted • basic unity of goals among those interested in Catholic ed aeation. .

Churchmen Ease StudentTension
the document emphasizes- the importance of the present Cath olic school system despite pre lJYD}PDsium fears that some par ticipants might advocate shut ting down the present structure. Nearly all symposium partici pants were in accord with the general trend - if not all the particulars - of the document, according to Father Koob, al though four 'participants chose to disassociate themselves from
SANTO DOMINGO (NC) Santo Domingo's apostolic ad ministrator and the charge d' affaires at the apostolic nuncia ture here have intervened to ease tensions at the University of Santo Domingo following a threatened clash between uni versity students and military forces. The administrator" Bishop Hugo Polenco Brito, and the nunciature's Msgr. Gian Vincen zo Moreni negotiated a settle ment between student leaders and military authorities after student annoyance at a proposed cut in the university budget led to picketing outside the country's presidential palace. The settlement calls for two hundred of the demonstration's leaders to go home in return for an army promise that none of the demonstrators will be ar rested. The cooling-off period pro vided by the settlement may be even more important than it appears, since some observers here report that the army, frus trated in its attempts to break up the student demonstration. threatened to turn on the gov ernment. Tension at the university has been running high because of the financial question and be cause of the growing influence of left-wing students. A student government elec tion at the beginning of Febru aiT gave 60 per cent of the votes for student body representativel to members of a leftist group running on a platform devoted 10 '''fighting Yankee imperial ism." ,

Among them were Auxiliary Bishop Mark J. Hurley of San Francisco and author Mary Per kins Ryan-for widely differing reasons. Father Koob cited a "remark able par a 11 e I" between the NCEA document and the state ment on education issued by the American bishops at their 1967 annual meeting in Washington. The bishops called Catholic ele mentary and secondary schools "indispensable," and said" we will 010 our part to continue, improve and strengthen these schools."
Urges Community Fair E~ployment
PHILADELPHIA (NC)-The initiative of John Cardinal Krol's Commission on Human Relations in urging development of a community fair employ ment practices program was ap proved unanimously 'by Phila delphia's 25-member Council of Priests. The, group, representing dioc esan and religious communities of prjests, of the' Philadelphia a'rchdiocese, voted after hearing a 'report by Msgr.'John J.

Sisters a1f Rose Hawtllorne Lathrop Home To Continue Care of Incurable Patients By Patricia McGowan
Visiting the Rose Hawthorne Lathrop Home in Fall River liist week wag the Mother General of the Dominican Sistern staffing the institution. She is 'brisk, ~nergetic Mother Mary Elizabeth, who makes her headqualrters at the Hawthorne, N.Y. motberhouse of the community. Once or twice yearly Mother Elizabeth makes the rounds of. the seven homes operated by the Sis ters, an for the same purpose - the service .of patients with incurable cancer. She admits puzzlement at the situ ation in Fall River. In Atlanta, St. Paul", Cleveland, Philadel phia and New York, the Sisters' homes are filled to capacity and usually have waiting lists of pa tients. In Fall Rive:r, t:lle Rose Hawthorne Home has not been fiHed for several years. J1t isn't unfoMuna,tely, that cancer is on the decrease. There seem ~ be several reasons for the low admission rate here. One, in some ways, reflects favorably on New Englanders. They seem less willing than people in other parts of the country to delegate flo others the care of infirm and aged parents and' grandparents, who make up the bulk of the home's patients, although there are no age requirements. ' ''They are proud and the old
people are proud," said one ob
server. "They don't want to ac cept help."
- Not Always Good Thi3 isn't alwa~'s a good at titude, however. .It can resul,t in elderly people rllceiving poor care, through lack of knowledge or fucilities in the home. Another reason for the patient lack might be the larger number of nursing homes in the New En gland area. Another could 00 lack of public knowledge of the services the home stands ready to provide. Still another, say some, is the full name of the Sisters: Servants of Relief for Incurable Cancer. Today the name strikes a chill; but in 1896 when the community was founded by Rose Hawthorne Lathrop, daughter of Nathaniel Hawthorne, it lit a beacon of hope for the suffering poor, who had literally no place to go when striken with what was then re garded as a contagioUls disease. Now, pointed out Mother Eliz abeth, patients have Medicare. . Usually, when they come flo the Sisters, "they are much sicker' than they used to be," having exhausted the resources O'f mod ern medicine for treatment &nell alleviation of cancer. They have usually exhausted their Medicare allowances too, thus meeting the Sisters' re quirement that their patients have no financial resources. "Cancer can be a long drawn out illness," said -Mother Eliza beth, "and' use up all the savings of even a prosperous person,"

Urges Catholics Aid Immjgrants SYDNEY (NC)-A statement on immigraticn aimed at en couraging Catholics to a wider acceptance of their duties toward immigrants w.as issued here by th~ Federal Catholic Immigra tion Committee -of the Austra lian Bishops' Conference to be read in all cllul'ches on Immi gration Sundar. The statement said that Aus tralia is failing to attract and keep immigrants. An official inquiry, it acJ:detl, indicated that psychological and social diffi culties, rather than material and economic considerations, influ enced the departure of immi grants. The statement called for a personal inquiry seeking to re veal "whether our at tit u de toward newc.omel'S is one of in difference or even of hostility; whether we lend support to the erecting of barriers against the legitimate economic and social aspirations of migrants; wheth er, in fine, we neglect our duty as Catholics, as citizens, of wel coming and helping others, of fulfilling our religious and so cial obligations toward new comers." The statement quoted Austro Ian Minister of Immigration B.M. Sneddon saying: "If we be lieve Australia has 0 destiny and that destiny is linked with population, then each of us has a duty to assist wherever pOS<' sible, and become involved per sonally with immigration ami migrants."

,Someone recently figured out that in. the Catholic Ohurch today, over fifty per c~t af its members are women. These loyal followers of Christ are for the most part the victims of a subtle but very effective discrimination. In theory, of course, the church grants equal rights for men and women. In the Vatican Council's DOCUMENT ON THE CHURCH IN THE WORLD TODAY, we read: With respect to the fundamental rights of the person, every type of discrimination, whether so cial or cultural, whether based on sex, race, color, social condition, language or religion is to be over come and eradicated as contrary to God's intent.
m
theory, the teaching is a fine piece af legislation'. In practice, the question is simply ignored.
Women may not be ordained. Women are barred from officiating formally in the liturgy. Their wice in church affairs is all but silenced. 'A women is not allowed to serve Mass. She may not functiol) as a lector. If there are women in the parish choir;-- they are more or less toleraJted only be eause there are not enough small boys or grown men in 'the parish available, for the job. Father Johannes Neumann, professor of Canon Law at the Universitr of Tubingen in Germany recently stated: A boy, not even capable of fluent reading is ,ad mitted to the altar; but an educated woman' who could do a much better job is excluded as though only males were the children of God.
the
The sam~ is tru,e about parish choirs. Women are easier
. to recruit, more eager to sing, and with few exceptions, they
moolQlnq
make a better noise than men.. Yet, we still retain a cer tain nostalgia for the cult af the boy choir or the all Il'!ale choir as th~ summum bonum in litl:lrgical excellence. Ordination for women may well become one of the big, issues in the c6ming years. It may sound strange -to us--· a woman functioning as a prie'st. Yet, however we may 0p pose it, we must admit that theologians have never put up a convincing case ag'dinst it. It is also significant'to note that the International Coniressof the Lai·ty passed a reso lution on the subject when it .met· in Rome last October. / ,"

In a brief to the Standin('g
Committee on Health' and Well
fare, the association also warneclt
that the feared division betweeili
the hospitals could spill over
into Canadian society at large.
Canada's Parliament is now
considering a bill to broaden the
grounds for abortion which ill
part of a general revision of tile
nation's criminal code. Intro
duction of the abortion measure
'in the middle of a parlimentary probe of the' question has '-.; , ready driven a wedge between the government and the Churda in Canada. : ",
Feb. 27 Meeting
The nation's bishops cancene4
a scheduled appearance befoN
the Health and Welfare Com
mittee and instead issued a sharp
pastoral le'tter opposing '.the
'abortion changes. Later, the]}'
agreed to appear at a hearing
Feb, 27. .
The Hospital Association briei
warned that refusal by Catholie
hospi tals to perform abortiON!
"may result in the other hospi ,tals being largely devoted tal>
what is frankly regarded by
doctors as a 'distasteful: kind ClI2
work, with less time and facili
ties for the more satisfying «l'
life-giving aspect of hospitall
work."
The Catholic Hospital Ass~
tion represents 300 institutionB
which provide 35 per, cent CIIf
, Canada's hospital services. "This kind of division d
labor, with the consenting hos
pitals getting all the abortion
work and the dissenting hospi
tals getting nothing but satis
fying work, would quite likelv
lead to an ever-deepening rift
between the two groups of hO&a
pitals, extending to the ,commu
nities they jointly serve," the
brief warned.
Increase Dissension
In an obvious reference to tJw
nation's sensitive relations 'be
tween French-speaking - and!
largely Cath,olic-and English
speaking-largely Protestant-
Canadians, the association a1s@
noted: "
"This does not seem to be Ei!ii

We've brushed up on French, going along with Thomas Hood: "Never go to France unless, y()U know the lingo; If you do, like me, you will repent, by', jingo!" We've even learned basics in Italian and German, such, as how to, order in restaurants. For the Head of the House, this means how to order pig's knuckles, sauerkraut UND beer.

April scene, navy took a back seat in the early sixties when Jackie Kenne,dy made pink a must for all those who like to feel 'that ' they are wearing what's "in." This season, not only has navy returned in the world of suits and daytime coats, it has become sophistic~ted enough to waltz into evening. Jacques Tiffeau of Tiffeau and Busch has designed an ultra navy evening time dress that is sleeveless and V-necked, and, of' course, wide belted. Worn with pearls, it takes on all the dy namic quaiities that black has always had. Because they look so well with navy and, grey, the return of pearls is what's new on the jewelry front for Spring and Summer. The thirties influ ence of the "Bonnie and Clyde" flicker has brought back the long swinging chains of beads and nothing swings better than long ropes of pearls-especially against navy or grey.
ROCHESTER (NC)-8ex ed ncathm will be integrated in tbe curriculum of 13 parochial schools of the Rochester diocese this Spring on an experimental basis. Father Daniel Brent, assocllm! d i 0 c e san superintendent at schools, said the sex educatioD program will eventually be in effect throughout the 102 ele mentary schools in the diocese. "We are trying to create an attitude that sex is part of life and not a dark, dirty secret,· Father Brent said. The classroom discussions will emphasize 1!he "family orienta tion'." of sex, and parents will be asked to review topics'wi,tln children before they are, pre sented in the classroom, hra added. Father Brent said the pro-, gram, ~lated to begin about April I, will aim at d,eveloping respect for the opposite sex and the serious Qlbligations that go along with sex. He emphasized the program will not constitute a separate course of study, but will be integrated with other subjects 'and with sp07lJtanooUII questions as they arise.

FLINT (NC) - Flint's voters have become the first in the nation to approve an open houSoo ing ordinance in a public refer endum. The measure, pushed strongly by Negro Mayor Floyd McCree and the local Council of Churches, was passed by a 43-vote margin. The unofficial tally was 20,172 to' 20,129. The Flint City Council passed an open housing ordinance in 1967., but its opponents, led by John Birch Society section lead er Gerald Spencer, had no trouble in gathering 5,000 signa tures on a petition to place the ,issue before the voters. The religious support of the ordinance was organized by the local Council of Churches, with which Catholic parishes coop erated. Several sponsored pub lic debates on the measure, and more expressed support for it in parish bulletins.

'Black Power'

MINNEAPOLIS (NC) - "'nle only un-Christian thing: about power is the abuse of power," Father James E. Groppj Mil waukee's militant civil rights leader, told a Luther.an lay men's conference here. Neither is the striving fox power by a minority group un American, the priest asserted. It is rather part of the American tradition, he said, and cited past drives for political power by labor unions, Italians in New York, and the Irish in Boston. Father Groppi also said that the Milwaukee NAACP Youth Council, which he advises, has adopted "black' power" tactics only after "we had used every tactic, evei,y means we could think of to take the yoke off black people and nothing had been effective." He said that one use the coun cil had made of "black power" was in a united Negro boycott of stores during Christmas. "The white man doesn't give 'us a housing bill; we don't give him our dollar," he explained. Discussing the role of the Christian Church in the black man's struggle for equal rights, Father Groppi said' that the Church has been "in'volved by her non-involvemen1i." .By such "non-involvement," said, the Church 'has aggravat~d the Ne gro's problem.

The Vatican turned down two requests made by the U.S. Bish ops, both dealing with liturgic011 experimentation. "No" was answered to the re quest that the U.S. Bishops be permitted to designate acade~ic centers to supervise litul'gicall innovation. Also denied was the request that some experimentation be approved without examinatioD by the Holy See. -Presently, the Vatican mu~ approve proposed liturgical in novations before experiment3 tion can begin. Archbishop Dearden explain ed: "While the two major pro posals concerning liturgical en per.jmentation were .not alP proved at the present time, ~ is clear that the Consilium i!J open to the submission of rite!! and texts of li-turgical adaptioTl!l whi,ch have been drawn up an@ll presented prior to actual experi mental use.

We who bear the noble name of Christian, arid who are io9 ingly called the faithful, stand in awe of the Mystery of Christ and the Mystery of His Church.

~~ ~@~ [[@U'@ IT)J WASHINGTON (NC)-Bishop Paul F. Tanner, newly named Ordinary of the diocese of St. Augustine, Fla., is onfy the fourth priest to serve as general secretary of the United States bishops' secretariat in the near ly half-century of its existence. Bishop Tanner was the last general secretary of NCWC, the original secretariat. He was also the first general secretary of both of is dual suc~essors-tne National Conference,of Catholic Bishops and the United States Catholic Conference: .The NCCB is the bishops' agency for deal ing with purely splritual mat ters; the. USCC Is their secre tariat for dealing with secular affairs. . . The prelate has served in the U. S. bishops' .secretariat 28 years, longer than. any preced ing general secretary. Born in Peoria, TII., in 1905 and ordained a priest· of the Milw~ukee arch diocese in 1931,· he came to Washington in 1940 ~as assistant director of the Youth Depart ment, NCWC. He ~as assistant general secretary from 1945 to 1958, and has been general sec retary since then. He is the first bishop to serve as secretary to the bishops' sec retariat. The NCWC (as Council and Conference) had been in exis tence 47 years when it formally went out of existence at the an nual meeting of the bishops in November, 1966. Bishop Tanner, who had served in the secreta riat for more than half those years, supervised the transition to two separate organizations the NCCB and the USCC. During Bishop Tanner's sec retaryship, and in testimony to the growth of the work handled by the bishops' secretariat, an impressive addition to the head quarters building here was erected in 1960.

A motion-passed unanimous ly by the board-was made to continue exploration into con solidation of the schools. This was opposed by John J. Mc Donough, a representative elected by the Catholic PTA Federation, who will be seated as a board member in July. McDonough was permitted to take part in the discussion, but had no vote. He protested against "the defe3ltist clique who let our schools get picked off one by one." He charged that The New Pe<lple the diocesan newspaper, members of the di ocesan school office, officials of the Missouri Catholic Confer ence, Kansas City pastors and· other Church officials share in an "anti-Catholic school rec ord."

McDonough said that the school superintendent should be "going· to the state legisla ture and, Governor Hearnes to demand tax relief," instead of considering consolidation and closing of schools. . Father Cole· maJntained that the reorganization would not represent a cutback. "The area school would be able to op erate out of one b\lilding to serve three parishes. It would provide the same educational ex,perience for the same number of students, plus advantages. Cooperation would make pos sible a highly developed model school, staffed by Sisters from three communities.", He said it would be irrespon sible to run three operations "at all costs," when the diocese could "have one operation, run it more efficiently, do a better educational job and provide op portunity for a better deploy ment of personnel."
Urge Germaruls
To Aid Vietnam BONN (NC) - Two German cardinals and two church related relief organizations have appealed to the German people to collect money and to pray for the people of Vietnam. A week be!ore Mardi Gra!l, Joseph Cardinal Frings of Co logne asked the Catholics of his
archdiocese to cut down on
Mardi, Gras festivities and to
donate "magnanimously" to the
needy people of Vietnam. Co logne has long ,been known .for
its &i>ectacular Mardi Gras cele brations. .
. Citing the bombing Of North
Vietnam, the .plight of women
and children caught between
opposing forc~·, in the $()ut~
and the great number of refu
gees, Cardinal Frings asked how
Catholics could watch pictures
of these gra,vely distressing si~
uations on television and ceie
brate Mardi Gras with a quiet
conscience.
Alfred Cardinal Bengsch, Of
Berlin asked for prayers for peace in the world in a letter to the clergy of his diocese in
which specifically mentioned
"Vietnam" as a name meaning "blood and dea'th." In a joint appeal, Caritas, the

Does it mean that they themselves should run for of flee, if only as a last reiort? If so, does it also mean that other clergymen should run against them if they happen to disagree with what they stand for? Or does it mean' toot only those clergymen who .are anti Administration should "get in T-olved at a precinct le\,el" and play "an activist role within both parties?" Sicnifieani; WarnlDI:" I have raised these questions, !lot to make light of The New Republic's editorial CD the sub ject under discussion, but merely to BUggest that clerical involvement ill partisan politics over the issue of Vietnam is, at
best, a rather tricky business and will almost inevi.tably lead
to certain consequences which, upon further reflection, even the editors of The New Republie
might eonceivably wish tc fore .tall.
To Speak in Boston Rev. Anthony T .. Padovano, S.T.D., theology professor at Immaculate Conception Semi nary, Darlington N.

tionales, make considerably more sense than the editors cOf The New Republic 011 this issue of clerical invol:vement in the so-called politics of peace. Though they are vigorously and unqualifiedly ,opposed ~il tW! war in Vietnam and, like tW!editors ()f The New Repub li(, clearly recognize that. the establishment of ;;leace in the . world is a political problem which calls for the active .m v.olvement ofChcistians as ~-en as all .other men of good will, they .do not .think that the· cle.J:gy, who .are responsible foy the unity of the Church, should be expected to take on the role of party politicians. Given the fact that their pub lication, ~CI, has been ,o::Je 01 tile most outspoken European critics of U. S. involvement in Vietnam and one of the most vigorous advocates ·of 'a politics of 'peace, their warning against the par ticipation of the clergy in par tisan politics is highly signifi cant and deserves to be taken very seriously. ("Christians and the Struggle ior Peaee," Infor mations Catholique Interna tionales, Jan. 15, 1965). Fl'. lia"lg's l?rindple Those American Catholics who may happen to have a spe cial interest in the pros and cons of this highly controversial issue will also want to read what Hans Kung has to say about it in his forthcoming book,"The Church." Father Kung has lectured ex tensively throughout the United
SUItes in recent years and is currently with us again as a vis iting professor at Union Theo logical Seminary in New York. "Seen in the light of the Gos pel," l:.e writes in his new book,. "the relntionshipof the Church to the world contains only one essential aspect: 'it's ministry 10 the world. . . .
