Last Descendant Of Moth'er Seton Non-Catholic
u:r was hungry and you gave Me to eat, a strangel ',,1 .vou brought Me home, sick and you cared for Me." St. Matthew 25 :35
HUNTINGTON (N C) The last living descendant of Mother Elizabeth Seton, who was beatified in Rome March
March 11, 1963 Belovpd in Christ, Each year during Lent we take time to think of our aeighbors in distant places. We have never seen them. But JIVe learn of their needs through the Annual Bishops World R-elief Programme, and that's enough. Since the Second World War we have been engaged in a campaign, first to take care of refugees and displaced people, and now for lite distressed of the whole world, some of whom starve 10 death, and most' of whom are racked by hunger and cli.sease in most miserable slums. What American Catholics have done in the past sixteen pears has made the difference between life and death, bope and despair, to fifty or more millions of men, women and children in as many as sixty-five different lands. And ibis because the programme is one of constant, regular assistance, given by dedicated teams of laymen, nurses, and :leligious alike. These representatives of ours are on the eeene. They live close enough to the needy that they are Inspired by Christ's judgement: "Greater love than this ):10 man hath, than that he should' lay down his life for a friend." We personally cannot supply the hands, the heart, the spirit of dedication to minister to the afflicted. But we can and should provide the means. This we are Invited to do next Sunday: Laetare Sunday, - the day .-hen we bring happy confidence to those that have known little else than neglect. What we do for the hungry, the sick and the helpless, we do for the cause of Christ. So let' 118 not be niggardly. It is a sad commentary on scientific achievement, a horrible indictment of our proud possession of wealth that 10 much misery exists in the world. Some men, particularly zich ones would like to salve their conscience by blaming the,poor for their own misfortune. Even the scientist who :PI'.omises cure-aIls for almost every human woe is em harassed by facts whose explanation is not to be found !Ill "population explosion" but in the callous indifference of those that live comfortably. But men and women who have known hardship have, Dlank God, a far opposite attitude. Their hearts are torn by the sight of suffering. But they are not afraid to look at it. They are ready to recognize that it is there, and they know that if they can, they should do something about it. S<> it is, that in this Diocese there 'has always been generous ]fesponse to the appeal for World Relief, by children in the IChools, workers in the factories, teachers and all profes sional people. We have united in recognition that we are, our brother's keeper, even. when he lives afar off. So let us continue our generous tradition yet another pear. What we give will not raise anyone to the level of complete- security. But it will give him hope. It will make tor a real lasting spirit of brotherhood which is the sure :lOad to peace and prosperity in our day. Many lands that ~re once beneficiaries of Bishops Welfare are now them "ves supporting programmes CARITAS (Charity), which . .e destined to do exactly what we are doing for the almost fi\Te-hundred million men and women who have not a decent shelter, and who do not know where to look for tood, healing or friendship. So it is a wbnderful fraternity • at we join each year. Let us see that we carry a fair .mare of oar burden.

For Latin America Pope John Asks Church in Canada
To Supply Mission Recruits
OTTAWA (NC)-Pope John expressed his thanks to the Church in Canada ,for aiding in the missionary work of Latin America-and added that' more help is needed. The Pope wrote: "Without doubt, there is' no diocese in your country which could not as a beginning assign to this end at least one or two ministers of God." A letter from the Pope ad dressed to the cardinals, arch. bishops and bishops of Canada was made public by the Apos tolic Delegation here. It asked the Canadian Hierarchy to be "the interpreters and the mes:" sengers" of the Pope "among the worthy communities of religious men and women in your coun try." It added: "As We are well aware, they are intimatelY"and amply collaborating with you in coming to the aid of Latin America."

Dr. ·Robert McAfee Brown, Stanford University religion professor and a Presbyterian ob
server at ihe coming session 6f the Ecumenical Council, said the Council gave Protestants a "sense of excitement and antici pation." Dr. Brown has written and spoken widely on ecumenical matters and writes a monthly column in the CClmmonweal, na tional magazine edited by Cath-. olic laymen.. He discussed the 'ecumenical council with F'1ther Frank Nor ris, professor of dogmatic theol ogy at St. Patrick's Seminary, Menlo Park. Calif.. at the open ing session of the Newman Forum Spring lecture series here. In evaluating the Ecumenica'l Council, he commented that "the Catholic Church is becom ing more truly catholic, not more Protestant. and that I like." Dr. Brown listed three areas in which the convocation of the Council stirred Protestant hopes:. Sees Breakthrough "We were surprised that a Council was held at all. We were led to beHcve that the last Council was the end of such meetings because the definition of papal infalli.bility appeared to render any more superfluous. "The creation of the Secreta riat for Promoting Christian' Unity indicates to us that the Catholic Church intends to pro mote the ecumenical dialogue. If the task had been left to us, we could not have chosen better representatives to serve on the secretariat. Each member has_ done creative thinking in inter faith dialogue.

About 9,405 students are in Savannah Cath olic schools. Noting that public elementary and secondary schools do not have to pay the state's three per cent sales and use tax, the paper called it "distressing" that Cath olic schools must continue to meet the levies.

Facts Tell the Story
Ill ...
A pencilled notation in the margin of a politician's manuscript revealed the speaker's technique. It read "Argument weak here. Shout." On the other hand, some causes sell themselves, needing only the facts to touch the hearts of men. The facts connected with the Bishops' Relief Fund tell the story far better than any orating about it could. The facts are impressive: • One and two-thirds billion pounds of food, clothing and· medicine given by American Catholics to the needy of the world last year; Aid valued at $165,918,948.20 sent last year. alone; More than forty million hungry and homeless persons including seven and one-half million children aided last year in seventy-seven countries of the world; Every four hours a shipment of supplies leaving some American port for one of the nations aided - 2,247 ship ments last year; Since its inception in 1943, food, clothing and other relief supplies having ~ gross weight of almost four and three-quarter million tons and valued at more than $1,115, 000,000. To organize" and administer this program the Bishops work through a world-wide staff of priests and (mostly) lay men and women. And they work with volunteers of the countries aided in a people to people program. Mexico, for example, has 2,171 distribution centers with twenty thou sand volunteers. ,The ultimate purpose of the Bishops' Relief Fund is to give the needy of every land and race and religion the means to aid themselves. But, in the meantime, they know that American Catho lics feel for them. They know that someone cares. This coming Sunday, American Catholics are privileged to assist once again in the great· work of charity carried on in their name by the Bishops' Relief Fund. They are privileged to heed the injunction of Pope John in his monumental encyclical Mater et Magistra: "We feel obliged to solemnly stress that we are all equally re sponsible for the hungry peoples ... It is necessary to edu . cateone's conscience to the sense of responsibility which weighs upon each and everyone, especially upon those who are more blessed with this world's goods •.. It is obvious that the obligation to help those who find themselves in want and misery should be felt more strongly by Catho lics, who find a most noble motive in the fact that we are - all members of Christ's Mystical Body." To help those in need is to help Christ. That is the basic fact underlying the Bishops' Relief Fund program. . .

Lisbon PatriClrch Explains Vatican Council Trends
LISBON (NC) - Manuel Caniinal Goncalves Cerejeir.a, Patriarch of Lisbon and the Church's senior cardinal,said kere that defining the place of the bishops in the Church is one of the main aims of the Ecumenical Council. He said the idea of theeollegiate appear. The Cardinal said that nature of the episcopal body there is "no questioning the has come much to the fore doctrine that the conscience of recently. Thus he indicated every man is free before God." that a prime task of the Coun cil will be to determine' ~e role
"The idea of the increased re sponsibility of the laity is not of the bishops, the successors to an alien one to the Council,since the Apostles, in governing tbe the laity alr-eady cooperate in Church in ~peration with the the apostolate of the Church," Pope. the Cardinal said. "They also Cardinal 34 Years form part of the Chur-eh and Cardinal Goncalves Cerejeira, should fulfill their role in the while only in his 75th year, has spread of the Gospel and its dif been a cardinal longer than any fusion through society and in one else.

Pope Pius XI made him larly belongs to lay action." • cardinal in December of 1929,
'One month after raising bim to
'lhe Lisbon patriarchate, and thus
bead of the Church in Portugal.
Concerning the possibility of greater decentralization in the administration of the Church, the Cardinal Patriarch said he believes there is a tendency towards a certain decentraliza tion which would' result in greater powers for bishops and regional episcopal conferences. Language On the question of the ver :Dacular in the liturgy, the Car dinal believes that while Latin will be maintained as the official language of the Church - a point which was decided in the Council's first s e s s ion - a greater use of the vernacular may be expected in what might b~ called the teaching parts of tile liturgy. These are those which are more directly con cerned with the faithful. This of the vernacular has al ready been implemented in the administration of certain of the 'Sacraments, and is, designed to help the faithful to participate actively in the liturgy. , Those parts of the Mass which stress the sacramental nature of the officiating priest will most probably be left in Latin, he said. H&rried Men The possibility of married men Erving as deacons in priest aeedy areas .is, the Patriarch said, a very real question in cer tain countries. He does not see ~ as a necessity in Portugal" but would not refuse to consider • married diaconate as desirable
with adequate safeguards in
certain conditions and places.
Regarding full freedom of
CQnscience for each individual,
the Patriarch noted that diffi
culties had arisen in the past
owing to the historical fact that
in certain countries various
forms of religion were part of
the state and so formed a unity
with it.
Today Church and State are
differentiated, he noted, so the

Nuns Appeal to U. S. Supreme Court Sisters of Charity Oppos'e Highway WASHINGTON (NC)-Acom munity ,of Catholic nuns in San Antonio,Texas, has carried to the U. S. Supreme Court its ef forts to prevent construction of a m,ghway on public land ,adjoin. ing its prop~y. The appeal was filed with the high court by counsel for the Congregation of Sisters of Char ity of the Incarnate Word. The nuns are seeking to pre vent the City of San Antonio from conveying to the State of Texas part of Brackenridge Park in San Antonio for use as an expressway. The park adjoins 283 acres owned by the nuns and used as
the site of Incarnate Word Col lege, a secondary school, a con vent and other strudures. The nuns argue that the city's action in conveying the park lands to the state for use as an expressway d~rivl$ them of property without due process of law. They point out that the deed by which the city acquired the park land forbade the city to dispose of the land for any rea son. They say that they acquired their adjoining land and devel oped it, at a cost of more than' $7,236,000, "in reliance upon the deed restrictions."
Arguing that construction of an expressway through the park would be "contrary to the deed restrictions," they declare that "the proposed conveyance of this land by the city to the state will deprive them of their Federal rights and will be a divestation of their vested interest in such park lands without compensa tion." The nuns' position was sus tained by a district court in Texas, which enJoined the city from conveying the park lanri to the state. However, the Court of Civil Appeals in Waco, reversed the district court's ruling last Sept. 20.

CINCINNATI (NC) - itA new age dawns for Ireland," a Jesuit educator told the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick at their 95th annual banquet here. Father Richard M. McKeon, S.J., director of the Institute of Industrial Relations at Le Moyne College: Syracuse, N. Y., called attention to the "great changes" of the past 30 years in Ireland: "There are almost revolution ary improvements in the stand ard of living, a great extension of social servkes, better educa tion with accent on the sciences, and a constant devt;!lopment of 5ndustry." "Too many Americans" Father McKeon said, "have no knowl edge of Ireland's current social ar.d economic development. And looking back into distant history how many know that from the seventh to 1h(' ninth century Ireland was the light of Western Europe, when her missionaries and teachers went forth by
thousands to spread Christianity
and civilization of a high cul ture?" WisbHer Well
He challenged "the falsehood that Irish are excessive drink ers of alcoholic liquors." "That lie 'has, gone far afield," declared Father McKeon. "What is the truth? The consumption of spirits in Ireland is three times less than that in the United States.. And 'the number of total abstainers is higher in Irelimd than anywhere else." As Ireland's "new age" dawns,
"all tJ,'ue Americans should wish her well in her efforts to estab lish the very things which we cherish for ourselves," he said.
Assumption 0 of I Assumption Circle, Fall River Daughters of Isabella, will ob :;erve its 45th anniversary Sun day: May 5.

Any force which is devoid of purpose is necessarfiy revolu. tionary. A boiler without obedience to its pressure':limit expodeJI; a train· in revolt against the "conservative" who laid the tracks runs wild; the young without a Mission perish. This want of Mis sion affects all young people, even though they have a measure of Faith; it leaves people of all ages bored, full of ennui 'and disgusted with life. But given a Mission, a goal, a purpose, they quickly become happy.
MOURNED: Father John L. Sigstein, the 88-year-old founder of Our Lady of ViC tory Missionary Sisters, died at the community's mother house in Huntington, Ind.

Three years ago a young toan was brought to us by his father, who was saddened by his son;s loss of Faith and consequent cantankerous nature. A few months later the boy ran away:, r~~~ing the next year still as stubborn and anti religious as ever. We recommended sending the lad to a school outside the United States.

WORCESTER (NC) - A six week pilot lecture course OR communism has been inaugu rated in -two diocesan high schools here. The course, covering econo mics and regimentation, as well as the philosophy of commu nism, is. being 'given by four Assumption ColIege professors. Two are former chaplains to the American diplomatic colony in M 0 s cow - Fathers Georges Bissonnette, A.A., head of As sumption's school of foreign af fairs at Assumption, who served in Russia from 1953 until 1955; and Louis Dion, A.A., college registrar, who was chaplain' in Moscow from 1959 to 1961.
Msgr. John J. O'Brien, dio cesan schools superintendent, said: "The more clearly the complicated man e u v e r s or tactics of, communism can' be pictured to our students and the more definite the realization that communism will doggelly cling to its objectives, the more intelligently alert to its dangers our students will be. "An expanded view of the permanent objectives and ever changing tactics of communism given by men of such experience as the Assumption College pro fessors will supplement and en rich the study of communism that is already a part of our (social studies and religion) curriculum'" he added. :

Widespread Threat I\.ansas Physician Sees Proposed· Bill Opening Way for Abortion Mills KANSAS CITY (NC)-A phy sician has charged that a bill to relax the state's aQortion laws wo~ld open· the way for "abor tion mills" in Kansas. Dr. Ralph J. Rettenmaier, chief pathologist at Providence Hospital here and coroner for
Wyandotte county, also said "there is never any medical in-· dication for therapeutic abor. tion." Rettenmaier commented on a bill in the Kansas Senate. The' legislation would permit destruc· .~n of an unborn child if three physicians state they believe con· tinuance of the pregnancy would impair the mother's physical or mental health, that the child would be born with "grave" de fects, that the pregnancy came
about because of rape or incest. Rettenmaier said that'th'e men tal and physical challenges in the "physiological process~' of birth are no more strenuous than the '''physiological' process' 'encountered every day." .. He charged that the.terms
"rape and incest" are added. ''t.
arouse pUblic sentiment for such bills." " The· law would also charge physicians with' a "severe. re sponsibility" because "he ii;: be- . ing charged with a progno'stica tion· that he cannot possibly make." " .

Expert Gives Council Attitude
American Catholicism Lags In Social Science Research By Msgr. George G. Higgins Director, NCWC Social Action Department
The name of J. M. Cameron, a convert to Catholicism who writes with some regularity for the Dominican monthly Blackfriars and for other publications in Great Britain, is hardly kno\yn in the United States. But Mr. Cameron, having spent a fair amount Mr. Cameron provides us with of time in this country and further food for thought when having traveled extensively he says that "politically and while here, knows the United socially many of the (American) States and U.S. Catholicism reasonably well. Not everything he knows (or ' t h ink s h e knows) about tIS is complete.ly to his liking, nor will everything he has written about US meet with our unanimous agreement and a p pro val. Nevertheless he is w 0 r t h listening to. Mr. Cameron's overeU criticism of American Catho-
-
lies is that we have adjusted too readily and too uncritically to the 9O-called American way of life. "My criticism of American eatholicism," he' says, "would be that, except in matters of sexual morality and the educationaI system, it is all too immersed in the common prejudices of American society. "It is just not true that the lIeparate Catholic educational system as such produces a selfeonscious min 0 r i t y culturally different from the rest of Amerlean society." Sweeping Generalization It is almost impossible, of eourse, to come to grips with wch a sweeping generalization. But some of Mr. Cameron's more II p e c i fie observations about American Catholicism are a little more manageable, and one .In particular is deserving of special attention. "In their acceptance of the structure of American capitalism, of the existing distribution of social po;wer, of the values of the affluent society, of the morality of the nuclear deterrent," he maintains, "the mass of American Catholics are wholly at one with their fellow citizens." This, of course, was meant to be a severe indictment of American Catholicism and will be so interpreted by most of Mr. Cameron's American Catholic readers. Food for Thought Is there anything to the indietment? Yes and no, in my opinion. There are many Ameri. n Catholics who are n'ot wholly at one with their fellow eitizens in their attitude with regard to American capitalism and the underlying values of the af
fluent society. But few of us are sufficiently eritical of the American social and economic system to satisfy the unspecified demands of Mr. Cameron. Fewer still are prepared to go all the way with him in his sweeping criticism of our gov ernment's policy of nuclea·r de terrence. However, there are also many
American Catholics whose atti
tudes and practices in the field
of socio-economics are probably more "American" than Catholic - who owe more to secular
sources than they do to the
social encylicals of recent popes.
Senate President Sen. John E. Powers, president
of the Massachusetts Senate,

The event will fohow attendance at 9 o'clock Mass at St. Mary's Church, faunton. Bishop Con r:oIly will be among guests of honor.. Sen. Powers' topic will be opportunitic::. for youth in government. •
clergy, especially on such key issues as the role Off the trade unions and race relations in the South, are far more radical than the mass of the laity." Raises Serious Questions • Assuming that this is a fairly accurate statement, I think it raises some serious questions about the social apostolate in the United States. For example, we might ask ourselves whether or not the clergy have tended to play too big a role in the field' of Catholic social action and have not ,attaehed enough im portance to the training and for_ mation of the. laity.
This and a number of similar
questions suggested by Mr.
Cameron will be taken up in
greater detail in future columns.
For present purPQses I am
more interested in his contention that not only American Catholics but Catholics generally are lagging behind in the field of social reform because they have been guilty too long of indulging in vague moralizing and have not suc~eeded in. reducing the social teaching of the Church to practical cases. "There is," he says, "much mulling over an ill-defined BEATIFIED: This statue body of doctrine sometimes known as 'the social teaching of of Mother Elizabeth Seton, the Church,' a mulling over proclaimed 'Bles.sed' by Pope which has no political conse John Sunday, is on. the quences whatever, for the doc grounds of Seton High trines considered remain at a School, Cincinnati.

Such a tone was more impressive than any specific results, although these may be expected when the Council resumes. And such an approach is absolutely necessary as a first step toward the unity of all men who believe in Christ. Principles Commenting nn the first chap ter of the section on the liturgy which has been voted on by the Council Fathers, Father Mc Manus stressed that the Council Jaid down certam principles for fostering the liturgy and bring ing about needed changes. The first principle is that t.here must be a liturgical re newal, that members of the Church must be taught a deeper comprehension of what they do when they worship God and re alize their pr.oper place in the l!fe of worship. The work of ('ducation must continue with proper .emphasis given to the role that each person in the Church plays in the worship of God.

newing, restormg, correctin and changing the liturgical books so that the people may take more of a part in the wor ~hip of God. Such change must take into consideration the community and hierarchical nature of the liturgy-it is a public and social worship and the various mem. bers of the Church have their proper functions within it. Teachin~ Value Another consideration must be the pastoral and teaching as pect of the liturgy-all the lit urgy, while the worship of God, is also of value for teaching and moving the worshippers. And so the needs of the people must be more clearly considered with more and appr':Jpriate Scripture selections, sermons in the con. text of worship as an integral part, and an in('rease in the use, of the vernaculnr languages aSI determined by the various re- I gional or national groups of bishops. Flexibility A third conSideration is that there must be flexibility-basic uQity but not uniformity and, rather, the adapting of the lit urgy to the diverse conditions, customs and t:ircumstances of various peoples of the world.

Anglican-Roman Relations Closer CHICAGO (NC)-An Anglican seminary professor said he wel comes "the thaw" which is bringing his communion closer to the Roman Catholic Church. Speaking at a Loyola t!niver sity forum, Reginald H. Fuller, professor of New Testament !anguages and literature at Seabury - Western Theological seminary in Evanston, nl., said the Second Vatican Council con tributed greatly to the closer relations between Catholics and Anglicans. "We welcome the 'thaw' in our relations resulting from the Vatican Council's invitation to &end . deleg~te-observers, from the fact that the Council is to make reunion a subject of its deliberations and because of Archbishop FIsher's visit to Pope John XXIII:' Fuller said. He referred to the visit in De cember 1960 of retired Anglican Archbishop Geoffrey F. Fisher, of Canterbury to the Pope. Some Reservations "It is significant that the Council should be c;111ed at all," he continued. "It implies that one understanding of papal in fallibility is now officially abandoned." Anglicans hall some reserva tions about the Council, Fuller said. He added: "We cannot accept it as ecumenical, but only as a domestic synod of the Church, albeit a major part." He said that se... eral major disagree ments between the two churches have been dissolved, but others continue. . "But we have never lost sight of the goal of ultimate reunion with Rome," the professor said.
