Legion of Decency "JOYFUL ASSURANCE IN EVERY HUMAN HEART"

Easter Victory

('~l

Am The Resurrection"

Continued from Page One·' But ..,hat does it matter to men and women In 1964? The same as it has mattered to people of every country and every age and every culture through these long centuries since it happened. All His followers since that time have insisted the Resurrection marks a crowning Victory over an equally great defeat at the dawn of creation.

Almighty God created a man and a woman. They defied Him. _. They wanted to leave Him out of His world. They wanted to run the world alone. God defeated thtm on the spot, completely and totally. Forevermore, they would live in abject and daily recognition that their revolt had ended in abysmal failure. Death and darkness would be the legacy for them and their children. Only a Divine Leader could reorganize a battle campaign. If man was to have a chance, he would have to 'have a most unique Leader: one equal to God in power. We believe He is our Christ, Son of God, born of the Virgin Mary. On Good Griday, in His death, He conquered the depths of hate, the legions of evil, the great armies of sin in all its human forms. It was a terrific struggle. It had to overcome the defeat which had left its battle scar on every soul. The Easter Victory now leaves its joyful assurance in every human heart. Everyone is so familiar with the order of battle. It was one-sided. A Man alone against the entire Roman Empire, the ruling clergy and civil authorities of an occupied military country, the entire world.

You can review the battle as it starts with the sword swinging Peter in the Garden of Olives, proceeds through the High Commissioner's verdict: "I find no fault In this man," through the Crucifixion details. He really had no chance. Whether He claims Himself as King or not, He is sure to be nailed to the Cross. As we watch the soldiers gamble for His robe,

and throw a lance into His side, we must agree that He is hardly the One who will restore the world to its original dignity. The editorial on Good Friday could very well have been: "A Man who claimed to be the Son of God was crucified .this afternoon, for conspiracy and treason against the Roman Emperor. A guard was placed at His tomb to protect it against possible violence from a handful of followers. The safety measure was deemed unnecessary by Pilate who had served the death decree, and refused to worry about the guard detail." And now its Easter Sunday. Read the record. Come to the tomb. Christ is risen. He is not here, It is His victory oVE!P th\! original "erdict of death and darkness that we are celeQrating today. The empty tomb will fill the empty Paradise. The Risen Christ will raise the dignity of fallen Adam. The curse: "Thou shall die the death" ;ill be replaced by "I am the Resurrection." Adam's defeat was Mr.. everyman's fall. Christ's victory b Mr. everyman'. badge of glory. "1 am the Resurrection.". By Rt. Rev. H. A. Hamel-Fall River

Publisher Says S·enate Passage Of Rights Bill Is Imperative NASHVILLE (NC) - Passage by the U. S. Senate of the civil rights bill, already approved by the House, is imperative to the nation's interracial justice cause, Ralph McGill, publisher and col umnist of the Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution asserted here. As keynote speaker at the Middle Tennessee Conference on Religion and Race at Vanderbilt, McGill said 'ill possible influ ence should be exerted to bring about passage of the measure. "I believe in property rights," he said in discussing the "most important" public accommoda tions section of the measure, "but I don't see how a licensed public business can call itself private and have someone stand in the door to say who can come in. Is that what we mean by a private right? And even if it is, I think it's necessary for our welfare, our children and towns to get past this." McGill said the Bill's fair em. ployment practices sec t ion should not be abandoned, al though such practices virtually are in effect now. Msgr. Thomas P. Duffy, pastor of Christ the King parish here,

said both Negroes and white. have joined in furthering the interracial cause of the Catholic Church. He denied there has been a breakdown in communi cations between the two races in the cause, but acknowledged there is insufficient interfaith communications.

BARDAHL

MILWAUKEE (NC)-Wiscon sin's five Catholic newspapers have launched a vigorous assault on the candidacy of Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace in the Wisconsin April 7 Democratic presidential primary election. The papers simultaneously ran an article by a Wisconsin theologian who concluded that a citizen cannot vote for a per son who campaigns on a plat form of segregation without be coming a cooperator in the moral evil of segregation. Three of the papers also ran a stinging editorial 'charging that Gov. Wallace's presence in the state last week meant that "moral evil is invading Wiscon sin." . The segregationist Governor called the <.ditorial "interesting," denied he is a racist and sug gested that Catholics should not let their clergy tell them how to vote. Protestant Criticism He also ran into Protestant criticism in Oshkosh, Wis., when he spoke to the local Ministerial Association at the Emmanuel United Church of Christ. A spokesman for the ministers, Rev. Jack LeMar, pastor of

Bethany United Church of Christ, told him after hostile questioning by the 17 ministers present: "We don't like your position' on segregation." Later, the Governor told news men that Protestant clergymen should "stay in their own part of the country and take care of their own problems." Wallace is facing Gov. John Reynolds in the primary. Reyn olds filed to prevent Wallace from capturing by default the state delegates to the Democratic nominating convention. Wallace is asking people to show their opposition to the civil rights bill pending in the U. S. Senate by voting for him.

VATICAN CITY (NC) The use of pep pills by ath letes "must be condemned not only from the viewpoint of Catholic morality, but also from the viewpoint of sport," a Vatican official declared here. Archbishop Pietro Palazzini, Secretary of the Sacred Congre gation of the Council, spoke in an article in the Vatican City wee k I y, L'Osservatore della Domenica. One of the duties of the Congregation of the Council is to see to the observance of the precepts of Christian life. Archbishop Palazzini's com ments were made as the Italian sporting world was awaiting a ruling by the Italian Soccer As sociation dealing with five players of a Bologno team who had been charged with taking pep pills in a recent champion ship game. The Archbishop said the use of stimulants "is a fraud and a deception." He added that it 'of fends against the virtue of pru dence "more or less gravely ac cording to the behavior of those responsible and to the amount of harm done to other sportsmen who may have been fraudulently deprived of victory."

Youth Has IFundamental Potentiality lFor Sanctity By Joseph T" McGloin, S.J. There are some words which make us tremble if we allow them to penetrate our consciousness-like "atom bomb," for instance. There's one word, tho, that frightens us only because we don't let it penetrate our consciousness "sanctity." Now don't rush is one who says the Morning off before your conscious Offering and lives it. He·s one ness gets penetrated - this who isn't just trying' to be pious word is worth examining. when he says, "I offer all my First of a]1 recall something you've been told in Scripture: "This is ..the will of God, your .sanctification." If it's the will of God-even though it also seems revolting

- you'd l:>etter look into it. I. 'xt in order, wash a few of the phoney ideas about sanctity

out of your mind. Maybe you've read the wrong books on the subject-as all of us have at one time or other. Maybe you've come to think that sanctity has some es st=ntial connection with extra ordinary things like miracles and such. Definition of Saint Maybe you define a saint as someone who floats around in mid air during his pray~rs, or one who spends all his free time flogging or at least starving himself. - Now all the above items could have some elements of truth in them. There were saints whom God made the agents of His mir acles. There were some with ex ceptional gifts of prayer, shown to be such by obvious miracu lous happenings.. There were saints who did some pretty heavy penances. And some of them were innocent all their lives, some were geniuses, some were religious. But notice the ('onstant repe tition of the word "some." None of these items is essential to sanctity. So what is essential to it? Sense of Values If you scratch the surface of a

saint, you'll find, first of all, that he's one who has Ii good honest sense of values. He knows the things which count and those which don't, and he acts on this knowledge. He has enough sense to real ize that a man is incredibly stupid if he exchanges the eter. nal pleasures to be had in God's company for the childish little pleasures of this life. A saint is a person who under stands perfectly well that the only purpose he has in life is to use this life to get to God. While others compromise and waste their time on intermediate goals, the saint bends everything to the only actual purpose of cre ation there is, God. He knows that the only thing that counts is how well he comes to know, love and serve God in this lif~ so as to get to Him in eternity. And he's willing to bend everything to that effort. Does God's Will Get inside a saint and you'll

discover a person who tries to

do God's will as perfectly as

possible at every moment. You'll

find someone who doesn't serve

God only in words and wishful

thinking, but one who serves Him

consistently and in fact. You'll

see in him a person who (like

Peter) doesn't despair at his

own faults (like Judas), but

who has enough sense to know

that the grp.atest virtues are

hope and trust in God.

A saint, you'll discover if you

take the trouble to find it out,

prayers works, joys and suffer ings 'of this day, in union with thp. Holy Sacrifice of the J'lI:ass * * *" But he's one who says this prayer, offers this pleasure, this suffering, and this job to God as he encounters each one.

This is a saint. And unless they're running him for canoni zation, miracles have no essential connection with him or his sanc tity at all. Of Every Variety

With a concept of sanctity like this, you'll begin to understand why there are saints--even the canonized types-of every vari ety and from every walk of life. There are some saints who were far from being intellectual giants, all the way ·from Peter and Philip and most Of the other Apostles, to a Joseph of Cuper tino (who could fly much better than he could study) and the Cure of Ars (who was a great confessor but a very poor spec ulative theologian). There were innocent saints like Stanislaus, and then there were the field-reversers like Magdalene and Dismas and Au gustine. There were some saints delicate constitution such as The Little Flower, and there were giants like John de Bre beuf and the soldier Ignatius. There were great preachers like Dominic, and then there were the quiet preachers-by example like Joseph. There were religious saints like St. Gabriel and St. Thomas Aquinas and then there were doctors like St. Luke, lawyers like Thomas More, thieves like Dismas, nurses like Margaret of Cortona, and, yes, even wanderers like Benedict Joseph Labre, the pa tron saint of hoboes.

'As Little Children' So don't shy away from the fact and the challenge that "This is the will of God, your sancti. fication." Learn what sanctity really is and not what the ~rowd in the bleachers imagines it to be. . Above all, if you're thinking clearly at all, you'll understand that youth has a better crack at real sanctity than anyone else, because youth has the fundamen tal potentialities required for it: energy, enthusiasm, idealism, courage and honesty, dissatis faction with mediocrity, love of the challenge, no fear of conse quences. This, in fact, is what '::hrist was talking about when He said, "Unless you become as little children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven." You have to use youthful characteristics like these, no matter how old you are, or you're too wound out to get to God.

The laity was asked to pledge voluntarily: to wel come new neighbors in the com munity regardless of race, creed or national origin; support ot3ers seeking an integrated society; work to prevent dis crimination; and decline to sell homes or move to another dwelling to escape racial inte. gration in the event of panic selling.

Catholic Population Rise Shows Lack of Priests

Prelate Stresses Responsibility Of .Policemen and Firemen

The Bishops of the United States share a common con cern over the fact that the number of diocesan priests today is alarmingly below requirements. There is in the U.S. today one diocesan priest, actively engaged in the direct care of souls, for every people living within the boun 1,200 Catholics. It is possible, daries of the parish to which he by adding the total of both is appointed. He takes the sacra Idiocesan and reI i g i 0 U S ments to the sick, baptizes chil priests, to reach a figure of one priest for every 757 Catholics, but this is an incorrect conclu sion. From 1960 to 1963 there wes an increase of 4,346,063 Catholics, including converts and baptized infants. During this same period there were 2,504 diocesan priests ordained. A check of the necrology show9 that 2,076 diocesan priests died during these years. When we break. these figures down further we find the following: 626 diocesan priests ordained per year from 1960 to 1963 and 519 diocegan priests died per year during that same time. Increase We gained 107 diocesan priests per year and the Catholic popu lation increase averaged 1,086, 516 per year during this period. Diocesan priests today total 34,465 and the Catholic popula tion 43,851,538. Although this number of priests may look suf ficient, we must substract about 2,400 diocesan priests who are engaged in administration, such as secretaries to the bishops or chancellors. Statistics further show that there are 22,075 religious priests in the U.S. today. But to add thi9 number to the 34,465 diocesan priests and conclude that we have 56,539 priests or an average of one priest for every 757 Cath • lics would be misleading. Different Work Someone might suggest that the Church split the work of di rect care of souls evenly be tween the diocesan and religi ous priests. But this would be impractical since the religious priests are bound to the rule of their order and usually trained for special work in the Church. They have taken on some parish work over and above their pri mary work. From cold statistics, we can easily see an apparent impending surge in Catholic population and conclude that vocations to the diocesan priesthood are in creasing only half as fast as the Catholic population. It would be akin to burying our heads in the sand if we were to shunt aside this realization. Many Areas Let us look at the many areas open to the diocesan priest to day. The work may be anything that the bishop appoints him to do. His first duty is to take care of the spiritual needs of all the

dren, hears confessions, teaches, instruct converts. He may also have the supervision of the parish school. Although his objectives are of the spirit, he must cope with the everyday contingencies of life. Social and economic condi tions are key considerations since he must adapt his approach to the people and community which he serves. There -is the problem of inte gration today, and his job is to

assist in the absolute banishment of all protracted animosities which, unhappily enough, still exist here and there. Specialization in the care of souls has already demanded, in practically every diocese, a greater number of diocesan priests than were needed 15 years ago. They are much more deeply involved in community propeets and civic affairs. The ecumenical movement has en couraged them to meet with ministers and rabbis to discuss problems of Christianity. They are to form Catholic laymen to bring Christ to the factories and offices. The Catholic population will certainly increase sharply and the Church will be obliged to keep pace with this contingency.

Norwich to B.uild Regional Schools NORWICH (NC) - The Dio cese of Norwich will build five new Catholic high schools in the next five years, Bishop Vincent J. Hines has announced. The construction will round out a program of secondary edu_ cation expansion that began last year with the opening of two diocesan high schools. The five new schools will bring the num ber of diocesan high schools to eight. Bishop Hines said the new schools will be so located throughout this Connecticut dio cese that every Catholic boy and girl in the diocese wishing t~ enter a Catholic high school will be able to do so.

Holy Week

Holy Week Holy Week is the center and heart of the Ohurch Year. It is not simply a rejoicing over past events, nor a recalling of these events to mind. It is a re-living of the

salvation-filled events of Christ. What happened in the Head n'ow happens in the Members. The great experience of Christ was His passage, His passover from death to life, from suffering to glory, from the cross to the resurrection. This is the paschal mystery. It is the mystery that is l~ver lived and re-lived in the Church at all times of the ye'ar but in a more intense man ner during Holy Week. The divine plan of God, hidden from all eternity but manifested in the fullness of time and realized in Christ, is to form of all men a holy nation, a kingly people. It is to make all "one man in Christ Jesus." The divine plan for man's redemption underlies Holy Week. We are ~conciled to God through Christ. And for Christ Himself the way was one of the cross. Christ , effected our redemption through suffering and death. And if this is true of the Vine it must be true in the members. All are called on to follow His example, to share His experi ence. St. Peter tells us, "ChriBt also suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow in His' steps." We cannot live the same life as Christ nor in the same set of circumstances.

A Matter of Taste

@rheANCHOR

Continued from Page One normally to be done during Ho~ Week. Papal and episcopal directives h a v e bee n uncompromising. Scholars and experts have urged and explained. Still we ask how • • * how * how. Just as Pope Pius' 1955 direc tives opened the way for further reforms, so the great Pope's in structions point the way to the level of participation that should normally characterise all truly Catholic rites. Renewal Directives The instructions of the Con gregation of Rites, the supreme authority in things liturgical, not only changed ceremonies' but gave many concrete directions as to how all were to participate. A quick glance at the directives gives us the impression that we are reading some pious com mentary or a meditation-book. No! This is an official directive - the establishment of law the imposing of basic, normal, minimal standards! The decree does not speak only of rubrics. As a mater of fact, it points out countless times tha,t worship is not a succession of rubrics. Worship is to be a 'liturgy: an action in which " everyone takes his rightful place -everyone. But this will not happen auto , matically. We have been too long lulled in t 0 disinterestedness. · Fourteen paragraphs are there fore needed to establish the in struction, explanation, commen .taries, both for clergy and for · laity. "Let the sacred ministers and the other lesser servel'lS, be they clergy or laity - especially jf ·they are children - be infol''"'1ed - with diligence concerning the functions they are to fulfill * * • Let the faithful also * * * be · diligently instructed so as to un derstand * * * that with devo tion they may participate both in mind and heart 'in this celebra · tion." Holy Thursday Participation is the normal thing. The responses of the Mass (according to decrees of 1955, 1958, 1963, 1964) are streng thEmed with the people's hymns for the solemn entry, the Com munion, and the Procession. Communion is nearly a fore gone conclusion. Each can watch solemnly at the Repository un til midnight (after that the decorations are lessened and there are no official or solemn 'periods of adoration - it's now Good Friday). Good Friday Here too participation is nor mal. The lessons and' Passion are to be listened to with devo tion. All have part in the Solemn Prayers - not by 'simply adding "Amen" to the priest's prayer ~ but by forming personal inten tions and prayer· during the brief - but long enough ~ kneeling period after the an nounced i n ten t ion of each prayer. Each person displays and exer cised _his own resolved love for Christ by coming himself to adore the offered Christ on a bloodsoaked cross and then by receiving this same even-liviD' Christ in Communion. HolY Saturday Here too, participation is of the utmost importance. The realisation that we are all other Christs takes visible form when the layman holds in his hands the fire that comes from Him ~ the living Candle; his joy is alsa enlivened as he shares the joy of this night during the Easter Hymn (Exulted); the Baptismal promises become somehow sa much more real as with candle in hand each one repeats from the heart intelligently and res olutely the first vows of a Christian.

If condi tions are exact ly as you de ecribe them, I wonder why you tolerated the situation. Of course, • wife must take precedence . over a husband's mother. In fact, a ~ife ~ust take precedence over all others with her' httsba:n:d. This is the very nature of ,riage. ' Whenever in-law" problems occur in marriage, there ;is . a ,tendency to place the entire , blame upon the in-laws., In, the folklore of. American life, In- ' . h.ws are almost invariably de picted as' evil iIicarnate. Tilts is obviOUSly far from the truth." , After 10 years of married lite a must indeed be annoying~ have in-laws check on your church attendance almost' every Sunday. But I wonder if this is really the reason for the plione eatl? Mothers-in-law are frequently lonely people. They have reared their children, who have mar ried and left home. They iind time hanging heavily on their bands. Like all human beings they want attention and affec-' tion. . Since your mother-in-Iaw's husband is still living, one is eompelled to wonder about the relationship with her own' hus band. Are they compil.tible? 1)()es he neglect her? In her 'unhappi ness is she reaching out to her lIOn as a surrogate husband? I fear this may be at, the root of the problem. A great deal has been written about the so-called silver cord which binds a son to his mother. Somewhere along the line, us ually during adolescence, a son must break this cord. The ma ture mother expects this; indeed, welcomes it. But even though logically she knows that it must occur, emo tionally it is a wrench. It can be eased if the older woman end her husband realize toot they ar~ returning to a type of life simila:o- to that which they bad before their children were born. Perhaps it would be prudent to discuss this matter with your husband at some length. You have a chance to observe the re lationship between your mother in-law and father-in-law. If you feel they do not get along well together, if there is some problem which seems to separate them, perhaps the son's attitude shOUld be called to it. He may be able to ,talk it over with his father and: persuade bim to pay more attention to'hiB wife. Your mother-in-law's coldness toward you can be understood even though you cannot accept it.

best way to handle these calls is to anticipate them by calling her and asking if she and her hus band have gone to church yet. If they still beat you to the phone, you may sweetly inquire after you have told them you attended Mass whether or not they did. She mry then get the message. - ittle Hope of Solution At the risk of sounding harsh, it may be easier for your hus band to refuse to take you shop_ ping than to refuse to take his nlother. You are really much closer to him and he may count more upon your understanding than upon his mother's under standing. Obviously, he was wrong if he counted on this but you will have to take it inU; ac count. If you were married one or two years, my advice would be to have a showdown with your husband over the issue. But why did you allow this sort of behavior to continue for such a long period of time without any vigorous complaint? In other words, you: permitted ,a pattern of life to' be estab lish~d and nOW, deeply annoyed by It, you would like to alter it: Frankly, I have little hope that you can do much about it. Unless this problem is much more severe than you seem to in dicate, I would be prepared to tolerate it as far as possible. If, on the other hand, this prefer ence of your husband for his mother seems to run more deep 'ly, to interefere with many Dther aspects of your lives and the ,rearing of 'your .children I would seriously consider ;'sy~ chiatric attention. . There probably n.ever has been a. wife in the world who at some time or other did not believe h~r husband seemed to prefer hIS mother to her, if he had a mother living. In human rela tions.hips such petty annoyances are JUst a'bout bound to occur. So long as your married life is otherwise happy you can be grateful that your" problem is n~t severe. Time, at any rate, WIll clear up this problem for you. In the meantime, patience and tact are probably your best weapons.

Prelates Oppose Bill Restricting Negro Rights

Negro Catholics Untapped Source Of Priests

CAPE TOWN (NC) South Africa's Bishops have condemned a bill that will further restrict Negro resi dence and employment in this nation' - which the government is seeking to push through Par liament - as an "invasion of pri mary human rights." The Bishops statement was issued less than a month after their reaffirmation of their op position to the government's policy of apartheid, or strict racial segregation. In a Feb.. 27 statement, the Bishops said that justice should be done· to all persons and groups and that charity should animate all rela tionships. In their statement on the bill, the Bishops declared: "The Conference of Catholic Bishops of South Africa deeply regrets that the government has judged it opportune to proceed with the Bantu Laws Amend ment Bill of 1964. 'Deadweight Restrictions' "Although the bill contains some provisions to the benefit of the Africans, e.g. the protec tion given to Africans against malpractices and permission for re-entry to prescribed areas, the bill as a whole is an invasion of primary human rights, and the minor concessions it contains are deprived of real value by the deadweight restrictions un d e r which they are buried. "The effect of the bill would be to ~eprive seven million Afri can citizens of the strict right to residence, movement and em ployment outside of Bantu areas, viz. in four-fifths of the entire republic. It would strip the Afri can of his basic freedoms in the country of his birth, making him dependent upon the permission of a permit to explain his pre sence anywhere and at any time outside of the 'Bantu home lands.'

a Chicago curate who says there is "great need for a substantial increase" in colored priests. Father Daniel J. Mallette, a·s sistant pastor of St. Agatha church here, writes in the cur. rent issue of the Serran maga. zine, publication of Serra Inter national, an organization of lay men who encourage religious vocations. Father Mallette indicates that a major obstacle to conversion of Negroes is that the Cathlic Church is 94 per cent white, a fact. which he says tends to contraodict explanations about the catholicity of the faith. Acording to Father Mallette, there are now 131 U. S. Negro priests, with only 65 Negro seminarians studying in the na tion's 203 major seminaries, monasteries and houses of study. The priest, who serves .in a predominantly Negro parish, writes that one reason for a lack of vocation consciousness among priests in colored parishes is a lack of time. "Too often in the struggle to win converts while keeping an aged and outmoded physical .plant solvent, the parish priest in a Negro community has little time for such long-range projects as vocation development. "Serra Clubs and all Catholics interested in vocations can help greatly with vocation days, sponsorship of seminarians with accompanying tutoring and guid_ ance where necessary-and, the biggest jolr-rooting out racial intolerance among whites."

By Most, Rev. ,Fulton J. Sheen, D.D. What mystery is hidden behind the scars worn by the RIsen Christ? They were not wounds, for His Body was glorious in His Resurrection. As a Captain who fought a great fight may wear ribbons as a token of his victory, so Our Lord wore His scars. But what have the scars to do with us? Amy Carmichael answered it well: . "No wound? No scar? Yet as the Master shall the servant be, And pierced are the feet that follow Me; But thine are whole: can he have followed far Who has not wound, nor scar?"

By Msgr. George G. Higgins The widely publicized Seminar on Poverty in the Midst

Says Pope John Clearly Opposed Racijal Bias HUNTINGTON (NC) At least 10 citations from Pope John XXIII's encycli cal Pacem in Terris can be used to demonstrate the docu ment's condemnation of !;acial discrimination, a social action leader has written. Father John F. Cronin, S:S., assistant director of the Social Act ion Department, National Catholic Welfare Con~erence, offers the analysis in an article on Pope John's attitude on race relations in the Our Sunday· Visitor newspaper.

Delegate to Lecture JAMAICA (NC) - Archbish op Egidio Vagnozzi, Apostolic Delegate in the United States, will lecture on "The Work of the Vatican Diplomatic Corps," at St. John's University here on Long Island tomorrow.

"The mind of Pope John is clear; men are equal in dignity and racial discrimination violates their natural rights," he asserts after quoting passages on human rights, international relations, social protections and legal safe_ guards to political rights. Father Cronin exam,ines the questil"'l of timing to explain the approach of the Church to racial matters'recentlY. Timin~ Important "When complex social changes are in. 01ved," he writes, "the question' of timing becomes im portant. One of the American Archbishops quietly and firmly desegregated the schools of his archdiocese in 1946 and was widely acclaimed for his hero ism.' "The same Archbishop, now a Cardinal, in 1963 took a number of far-reaching steps in the civil rights field, yet his actions were

hardly noticed by the press. What would have seemed revo lutionary five years ago is commonplace today." Fat her Cronin continues: "But these steps are common. place only because quiet pres sure and persistent education made people ready to accept leadership. Because the Church was trying, in an undramatic way, to aid the Negro during the l'<1st century, it can now move forward rapidly in the struggle for full equality and the com plete ~·ec(}gnition of his rights. "Our Bishops first chose to give the Negro his due within the Church itself. When the time was ripe, they faced the broader problem of his position within civil society. As with Pope Pius XII and the Jews, they had to decide when to act quietly and when to speak in tones of thunder."

In New Orleans with Father Clark was Father Michael Lies of Chicago, regional director for -p A V LA in th.e Midwestern states. At present, said Father Lies, there are 281 Papal Volunteers from 71 dioceses in the United States serving in Latin America.

NEW YORK ',NC) - The American Jewislt Congress has strongly oJposed congressional effo~ts to enact

.. ~ iLconstihltinT',,1 ..llendment per mitting prayer and Bible read ing in public schools. The AJC's national governing council said in a resolution that a "one-man crusade" by Rep. Frank J. Becker of New York on behalf of the amendment was "the most serious challenge to the integrity of the Bill of Rights in American history." Becker has been spearheading efforts to win passage of the amendment in the House.

In a lighter vein, he told of his own difficulties at the Coun"; cil, particularly his difficulty with Latin. "Even the Russian observers were better off. than I was," he said. "They had in terpreters." Because all ad- dresses had to be given in Latin, he added, "For once in my life I kept my mouth shut."
