Archbishop Dearden Supports

Commission Attack on Racism

~GINAW (NC)-Archbishop .JOhn F. Dearden of Detroit told an audience here that the Na­ f'wnal Advisory Commission on

Civil. Disorders was correct in pinpointing "white racism" as III major cause of last Summer's aotlng. "'I'he use of the ugly 'racism' disturbs us," he said, "and yet /it is the right word. It disturbs US because 11; conjures up mem­ &rnes of Buchenwald and Dachau " • Q and "Nle deep wound of racism that is now weakening E)Ut' own country."

The archbishop, president of the National Conference of Cath­ olic Bishops, spoke on "The Role <;)f the Church in the Urban t'rlsis" to a standing-room-only ~wd at St. Paul Seminary.

Teach Responsibmtics He warned that "tensions in oor oommun,ities are steadily lnOunting," and said, "Fear has oome to rest upon every ceg­ nnent of our community."

The Church, he continued, must be in the forefront of the effort to ":restore to our people confidence and hope and. a strong desire to reestablish more solid­ );y than ever before a spirit of \!!nity and concord."

He also said that the Church

must teach "where man's re­

eponsibilities to God and to man

lie . • • and the message must

be • • • cleat' . . . courageous

• • • persistent. understanding

Cautioning that teaohing ami preoohing alone will not solve h urban erisis, the archbishop declared that knowledge must be joined to programs of action ., they are to be effective.

Recently there has been too much evidence of a freezing @f positions-a drawing of lines almost as for battle. And fears of this sort grow when commu­ nication breaks down because the unknown feeds upon itself."

Tohe prelate warned against attitudes, stereotypes and by III slogan mentality.

"The white comunity hears an eXlpression like 'black power' and Immediately becomes appre­ hensive," he said. He pointed· out that "there is much in the 'black power' movement that we must recognize as valid and good.

"We need to judge the issues that are involved," he said, "not the words in which they are put nor our reaction to the persons who put them."

Archbishop Dearden said that the cl'isis of America's cities is centered in three areas: hous­ ing ,education and employment.

Here, he said, "the full effects of discrimination and segrega­ tion are met with in the most aggr'avated form."

He declared that the Church, the People of God, "must come to grips with these problems . . . must spur and encourage aetion ... must be prepared to initiate action. It must be pre­ pared not simply to talk about difficulties, but to do something about them." '. Inferior Edu<Cation He described ghetto-housing as "indescribably bad. Here pov­ erty is met with in most drab and dreary dimensions."

He held that the key issue on housing "is the right· of access by the Negro to housing oppor­ tunities in the total community.

Open h'ousing is necessary for his dignity ... it is 'am injustice to deprive him of his right of access."

Archbishop Dearden described the quality of education offered the Negro in the inner cities as "definitely inferior." It is a Christian duty, he said, "to show an honest and sincere concern te work in every way possible i& obtain for the Negro and for the disadvantaged person of every race a truly quality edu­ cation."

Of the probl~m of unemploy­ ment in the inner city, Arch­ bishop Dearden said that the Church "must support govern­ mental efforts at every level to wO\'k to improve the con­ dition of the Negro and the dis­ advantaged."

'Responsible Freedom in Lent

Of Laity,

Christ ha~ said, "Unless you do penance you will all likewise perish." The right ordering of one's Hfe demands that there be self-discipline and this means being able to say "no" to oneself. In past Lents the Church has step­ ped in and by law has told men *hen and how to say "no."

There was always much room and encouragement for vol­ untary sacrifice, of course, but there was a minimum t~at was of obligation. '

WASHINGTON (NC) ­ A thorough three-month S'llllo vey of reactjon among Amell­ can Catholic laymen to the

During the past few Lents the emphasis has been on the spirit of love rather than the spirit of the law. Cath­ C)1ics have been encouraged to make their own sacrifices according to their individual neeqs 'and the inspiration of God.

It is salutary to reflect on how this is being done.

Responsible freedom is a responsibility. It means, that -.ne takes the burden of actioil on his own shoulders. It .!leans that a person must be' ,honest enough to ·know that he needs sacrifice in his life. This is the only ultimate proof C)f love, and it is proof of love of God. It is the undeniable means of curbing oneself and' this 'is a necessity if God is to life in one's life wit'hout o»stacle. It is the proof 'of love C)f n~ighbor and this is,t}l~~ar~ of the Ohristian., The honest Christian must, at this point in L,ent, ask himself what he is doing, along these lines. Has, there been a renewal of his life of prayer? Has there been a posi­ tive seeking to' serve God better at the expense of his own will? Has there been a,more, conscientious doing of the spir­ itualand c:orporal works of mercy? Has he felt the pinch of sacrifice in his life?, ' If responsible freedom has been well used, the an­ swer must be that there have been at least attempts in these areas and, it is hoped, some measure of accomplish­ ·ment.

Mutual respect and mutual patience and the willing­ ness to be kind to each other-this is the program for young and old alike.

Judge Denies P'eace Protesters Request BALTIMORE (NC) - A Fed­ eral judge here turned down the request of a Baltimore Catholic priest and three other peace protesters who asked that their trial for pouring blood in Selec­ tive Service files be postponed unfil the Vietnam war is over.

Judge Edward S. Northrop did agree, however, to postpone the trial if the defendants show that an impartial jury cannot be chosen. He also agreed to allow the four, including Father Phil­ ip Berrigan, S.S.J., a Josephite priest, to question prospective jurors about their 'opinions on the war.

Accused of violating Selective Service laws and destroying government property, the four had claimed that public preju­ dice supporting the war pre­ clu~d a fair trial. Four college professors and a public opinion pollster supported their claim.

Mother Mary Joan, chairman: of the College board and motlie,

Mount Senario, which is eo­ educational, is. the only Catho­ lic college in the Superior dio­ cese. It has an ·enrollment of 160 students.

Mother Mary Joan said Sistel'

Ann Mary's resignation was

based on a misunderstanding of the role to be played by the recently appointed vice presi-o dent, Grant E. Zachary.

Society Shields People From Fa~ of Death LANCASTER (NC)-Today'" society shields people from the fact of death,Bishop John ,.I, Wright of Pittsburgh said here in Pennsylvania during the 27th I annual Garvin lecture at the Unitarian Churcli of Our :Fa­ ther.

"When I was a boy, I believed in death," he said. "There' was no effort then to shield children from death, and, in fact, children were more familiar then about birth and death than they are now.

"The whole cosmetology, floral· industry and vocabulary now serve to insulate us from death,'" he said. "Wakes ceased to be a reality, especially for us Irish.

"These were a wonderful prepa­ ration for death. We used to like to quote the last words of ·the dying-Ilow we are so anesthe­ tized that we musn't mention it." .

CINCINNATI (NC)-The na­ tional chairman of the Confer­ ence of Major Superiors of Reli­ gious Women's Institutes has commended the action of the Vatican Congregation for Reli­ gious in forbidding the Immac­ ulate Heart of Mary nuns of Los Angeles to continue exper­ iments approved by their gen­ eral chapter 'last Summer.

The chairman-Mother Mary Omer. mother general of the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati --has stressed that the congre­ gation is the officl al body for guiding and directing all Reli­ gions communities in the Church" and that she "does not feel that the sacred congrega­ tion intends to hamper or dis­ oourage in any way the good work that is being accomplished in the renewal of Religioull communities."

Directs Colla.boration The Immaculate Heart of Mary nuns already have an­ ., nounced· that they' will petition Pope Paul to ovenule the con­ gregation~s. order that they re­ turn froIt). .lay clothes to a "uni­ form habit"; reinstitu,te com,morn religious exercises in their com­ munities and keep educationall' work as their principal occupa': tion.

The experiments, as 1II(ell 00 chapter-approved changes in the nuns' educational programs, have been the source of dispute between the religious order and James :francis Cardinal McIn­ tyre of Lost Angeles.

The Vatican congregation communication also ordered t,he California nuns to collaborate with the Bishops in the diocesea they serve.

It will be the third time O.l1t of this country for th(~ St. Vin­ cent open-heart team,. The first was in 1957 when the team per­ formed the first such surgery-in Rio de Janeiro and other areas of South, America.

Five years ago, a team from St: Vincent performed an opera­ tion in Paris at a UNESCO meeting of, heart ,·surgeons from aU' over .the world.

For the first time,this year's tearn will include a nun--Sistel' Donna Marie, of the Sisters of Charity' of St. Augustine, who opelZ'ate St. Vincent Hospital. She is supervisor of the hospital's specialized surgical cardi:;u: and cardiac pavilion nursing units.

Church Must Follow Words With Action' Says Fr.' Kueng

Xavier Honors NCCM Director CINCINNATI (NC) - Martin H. Work, executive director of the National Council of Catholie Men, was presented Xavier Uni­ versity's St. Francis Xavier medal here.

Father Paul L. O'Connor, S.J.. university president, made the presentation at the' X a vie r Alumni Association's 16th annual universal Communion Sunday.

In accepting the medal. Work asked whether the saint would feel at home in today's world.

"Everything was black and white then," he said, "not gray like today." He said the crises currently confronting the Church are "legion."

The Second Vatican Council, he said, recognized that laymen, as a part of the Church, have definite rights and responsibil­ ities. The Church, he said, is an institution, and institutions are to serve men, not men to serve institutions.

Study Most Productive Use of Resources

prove the present schools, in re­ gard not only to their organiza­ tion and the quality of their performance, but also to their relations to other schools and service agencies in the commu­ nity; Freedom to Experiment The need for comprehensive information concerning the rel­ ative effectiveness of proposed alternative models of Christian education, and for sociological, psychological, and theological knowledge as a gui~e in any proposed reallocation of ,re­ sources; The duty to weigh the factor of equity in distribution of re­ sources, in light of the fact th'at the Catholic schools as a whole presently provi~e for less than fifty per cent of the Catholic

school-age population; The challenge of meeting the needs of an increasingly urban society, and the opportunity for community-wide service afford­ ed by the diocesan administra­ tive structure, which crosses municipal and county bounda­ ries and, because of its inde­ · pendence, enjoys freedom to experiment; The fact that the Catholic educational effort as it now ex­ ists represents a starting point for diversified service in re­ sponse to new needs of society.

Unified Plannilllg , In view of'·these considera­ · tions we conclude' that it would be premature to, urge immediate massive redeployment of Cath­ · olic educational resources into · new patterns of Christian edu­

cation. On the', o th e r han d, there is an evi­ dent need for well designed programs of re~ search and ex­ periment aim­ ed at obtaining reliable data to , guide decisions . about the most productive, use of resources.

John Antaya These studies Attleboro should be sci­ entific and objective, should have reasonable financial and personnel. support, and should be guided by previously stated criteria of success. . These experiments and re­ search projects should be di­ rected both toward the improve­

ment of Catholic schools and toward realistic measurement of the costs and effects of' alterna­ tive and complementary choices to achieve the goals and priori­ ties of Christian education. We propose, by way of example, the fullowing subjects of research: the use of' new technologies, school-home programs, cate­ chetical learning centers, exper­ iments in adult education and familY-centered teaching. In ad­ dition, we recommenq explora­ tion 0:£ innovative practices such as dual enrollment, shared. campuses, interfaith schools and the s~udy of religion in the pub­ lic schools as an academic dis­ . cipline.

Strudures and, Systems In the past the Church's edu­ ootional efforts -- Cat h 0 Ii e

schools, the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, adult educa­ tion, and the rest-have worked independently. 'l'hey have de­ veloped their own financial re­ sources; they have undertaken recruitment of personnel; and they have undertaken their own programs. Their success has been remarkable. Under a totally de­ centralized system, highly cre­ ative programs have been pos­ sible.

This approach has not been without problems. It has resulted in an inequitable distribution of personnel. A disproportionate amount of money has been di­ rected to one or another of the Church's educational efforts, with little or no money allo­ cated to others. Duplication of efforts has sometimes rellulted; Turn to Page Sixteen

BALTIMORE (NC)-Lawrence • the machinery of the parish Cardinal Shehan has recommend­ council and advisory board; is ed reorganization of all parishes ill an excellent position to cause in the Baltimore archdiocese to meaningful things to happen in include a 'board of corporators, advjsory board and parish council.

The recommendations were drafted by a special committee which the cardinal set up 18 months ago to seek methods of revitalizing parish life. They ar'e set forth in a booklet being dis­ tributed to archdiocesan priests for discussion at a conference on April 2.

Entitled "Guidelines for Par­ ish Councils and Advisory Boards," it provides instructions for forming an organizational structure "devised to harness · the various talents, skills and manpower in the parish."

This structure is made up of an advisory board, council and board of corporators.

Has Final Say According to the booklet the structure "has been in success­ ful operation for over a year'" in five parishes of the archdio­ cese.

All pll:rishes in the archdio­ cese have already been legally incorporated under Maryland la.w since May, 1963, and .each is a separate legal. entity.

Each has its own officers who include Cardinal Shehan as president, Auxiliary Bishop T. Austin Murphy as vice-presi­ dent, the pastor as secretary­ TO BE CONSECRATED: treasurer and two laymen as Archbishop - elect John H. corporators. .

Jersey Council of Churches has dropped plans for its own Good Friday Penitential walk to join a Palm Sunday walk through the streets of Newark's ghetto.

The Newark procession is to be an interfaith, interracial gesture of solidarity with the city's Negro community. It is being sponsored by the Christian Community Movement, an or­ ganization of city blacks and suburban whites headquartered at Queen of Angels Catholic parish here.

Some 10,000 people are ex~ pected to take part in the dem­ onstration of friendship. Dele­ gations from practically all par­ ishes in the Newark archdiocese will be partcipating as will stu­ dent groups from Catholic, pri­ vate and public colleges and uni­ versities.

A rally on the steps of the Essex County Hall of records will follow the walk. Speakers will be Willie Wright, a militant Negr.o leader form Newark, and Msgr. Thomas Carey, admiI\is­ trator of Queen of Angels parish.

The Rev. Dudley Sarfaty, com­ menting on the decision of the Council of Churches to join the walk, said it was a "response to a call 'for help from the black community. It's a common bat­ tle."

the parish. This board has the final say on all p~rish activi­ ties."

Pastor Better Executive The guidelines point out the benefits of the new structure to the pastor and parish: "The pas­ tor of a parish is indeed a busy person. He must be somewhat of an accountant, financial ex­ pert, lawyer, architect, carpen­ ter, and business manager'along with being a priest. With the structure of' the parish council and advisory board he has more time to be a priest.

"He gives up no authority nor responsibility. He simply be­ comes a better executive. He is in a position to utilize the tal­ ents and skills of the laity, many of whom are experts in their particular callings."

The parish 'council recom­ mended in the guidelines would be composed of a representative from each recognized lay or­ ganization, the parish represen­ tative to the Archdiocesan Council of Catholic Men, and fiVe members elected from the parish at large.

Education of Adults Urgently Neces$ory

viding the best possible oppor­ tunities to deepen and extend one's Christian commitment, the institutions will attract both those who seek excellent train­ ing as theologions and those who seek to influence society in other capacities but want the best possible education in their religious heritage. Thus the col­ lege and university are not only focal points for the Church's thinking, but also settings where commitment and competence to serve the world are promoted.

The Catholic college or uni­ versity is, moreover, at the cre­ ative center of the diocese. It possesses resources to assist the diocese in solving its educa­ tional problems. Specifically, its ability to conduct research and to assist in training and re-

training programs were cited by Symposium participants.

Vatican Denies Chc~ge in Ru~e On Masons VATICAN CITY (NC)­ The Holy See has denied it is considering "p r 0 f 0 u n d changoes in the canonical dis­ cipline" forbidding Catholics to belong to Masonic lodges.

A communique issued by the Holy See's press office made it plain that Catholics are still for­ bidden to join Masonic lodges and that converts may not re­ tain their membership in such lodges.

The communique said: "Ac­ cording to very recent reports in the daily press of various countries, the Holy See has al­ ledgedly authorized persons converted to Catholicism to re­ main in the Masonic organiza­ tion and allegedly is consider­ ing profound changes in' th'e canonical discipline in force concerning Masonry itself.

"From the competent office of the Holy See, we are authorized to deny such information as devoid of foundation."

The "competent office of the Holy See" is the Doctrinal Con­ gregation, formerly known as the Holy Office.

Canon 684 forbids Catholics to join secret societies the Church has condemned, and attaches the penalty of excommunication to such joining. This excommu­ nication was reserved to the Holy See itself, but in 1965 Pope Paul VI gave confessors the faculty of lifting it.

Sponsor ~orkshops For Social Justice SINGAPORE (NC)-Sponsor­ ed by the Committee on Socio­

The meeting's purpose was to explore and assess current ef­ forts and trends promoting hu­ man progress and justice in so­ ciety and to stimulate coopera­ tive ventures in each of the participating countries.

The meeting provided opportunities for discussion among experts in various fields: government, la­ bor, agriculture, business, the professions, education and reli­ Mion.

SELA is a committee of 20 .Jesuit priests, specialists in 50­ eio-economic affairs, who live in ",arious Asian countries. The or­ ganization sponsored previoull meetings in Bangkok in 1963 and in Hon&: Kon&: in 1965.

Professionally

qualified lay men and women, clergy and religious should be equally eligible for every type of teaching or administrative position.

The new emphasis on the "Church in the world" makes it highly desirable that priests, Brothers and Sisters be trained in sociology, psychology, an­ thropology, political science and economics. Their training ought also to be such as to make them alert and responsive· to the im­ plications of the ecumenical movement. Furthermore, stu­ dents on the elementary, .sec­ ondary and college' levels 'of education should be acquainted with such issues as peace,' pov:'· erty, civil rights; ecumen,ism:: ., ·and population. .. In view of this new challenge,

we strongly endorse the con­ temporary renewal and devel­ opment of seminaries and cen­ ters of formation for religious toward educational excellence.

Efforts in this direction should include the participation of qualified laymen in developing policy for the education and personal formation of the priest.

Administrative Control It is important to emphasize that the priest as teacher should ·be regarded as 'a professional person; he should therefore be g i veil adequate educational fraining and experiences. .

Oliver Ames, .

By PETER J. BARTEK Norton High Coach

Directing Sights On Loop Pennant In Hockomock j

From Cape Cod to Norlh Easton pre-season baseball practice is being hampered by 'inclement weather. The annual cry of area baseball' coaches regarding weather con­ ditions has been amplified this Spring because of the excessive rain fall from mid-March-the starting date for Spring sports-­ to the present.

Some area clube have been able to work out on their play­ ing fields for a few days, but generally practice has been con-' fined to the gyms. Most coaches ore concentrating on condition­ ing, bunting and a minimum amount of throwing for infield­ ers and outfielders. Most avail­ able gym time is devoted' to battery workouts.

At Oliver Ames High in North Easton, Coach Robert "Buddy" 'W-ooster is following the gen~ eral trend, concentrating on his pitching staff. The Amesmen' have been able to work outside' only one day thus far, and ac­ cording. to Coach Wooster will not be able to get on the field for some time.

In Same Boat' The Tigers coach approaches the season philosophieally and realistically. He says "We're in the same boat as everyone around us. It's the same almost every year. We'll get as much accomplished inside as we can and hope that the weather breaks shortly."

To combat the annual weather" pr~b~em, the Hockomock Lea~ offiCIals have moved the starting date back a week. Opening day this Spring is April 22.'

The Hoekomock race promises to be as exciting this season as last when Sharon. Stoughton and Franklin battled it out to the final week of the campaign.

Entries from within the dioe~se, Oliver Ames and Mansfield eould be serious contenders :for the. title. .

OliVer' Ames has ph exp~rienced squad which is determined to . move: into contention lor league ,laurels. Mansfield bolists two of the best hurlers in the circuit who could lift the ,Green and White to the top. On the other hand, defending champion Sharon has been hit hard 'by

ever to play for the Green and White. He rates as the top hurl­ er ,in the league. Souza'.;;. effec­ tiveness this Spring will go a ',long way in determining the -Hornets' fortunes but he. is not the. only standout returning.

Slick fielding first· baseman, power hitter and strong arm pitcher Bob Souza will again be available to haunt rival coaches.

The brother act of Bob and Jack, which destroyed many a foe last Spring, is destined to do likewise this year, thankfully, according to rival coaches, for the last time. Jack is a senior, Bob a junior.

'I Big Three .Ver~a.tile J a c k Armstrong rounds out Coach Dunn's big three. Armstrong, who was used at various positions by Coach Sullivan· again will serve the Hornets wherever Coach Dunn determines he can do the most good. If the new baseba'l'l men­ ,tor is able to complement these three stars, look for Mansfield : to finish at or near the' top 01 the final Hockomoek' League standing.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs. Mar. 28. 1968

Varied Expertise

Problems eondition of financial assistance: generally accepted practices of budget planning should! be in-, troduced; uniform fiscal ac­ eounting procedures should be used, with audited accounts available to all publics having a legitimate interest in them; budget planning, actual expend­ itures, and auditing should be umdertakEm by represen ta ti ve and responsible diocesan boards of education; after adequate study, serious consideration should be given to the incorpOl'­ ation of Catholic schools as in­ dependent nono:profit education­ al institutions.

Implementatioll'll We recommend fresh ef.forts

to bring about greater public understanding of Catholic edj.l-', cation in all its variety. The Church's educational enterprisc is a matter of legitimate con­ cern to the community at large;,

moreover, it I is only through widespread knowledge of its aims, achievements and prob­ lems that Catholic education can hope to attract an increased measure of public. acceptance

and support. FQr these reasons we encourage everyone engaged, in Catholic education to develop a spirit of complete openness, ill1d candor' in relations with the' public and news media. We further recommend active pub.,. lic ,information programs, con­ ducted according to professional

standards, aim­ private groups 'and : agencies.

We endorse broader partici­ ed at helping the public to pation by all elements of Cath~ understand olic education in ecumenical' w hat Catholic dialogue and programs of coop~,

as well as the use of research tools, management services and analytical systems techniques.

These insights and others gained during the Symposium must not be lost; the degree of shared un­ derstanding achieved by the participants must not only be preserved but increased and spread. Therefore, we recom­ mend that regional symposia, patterned after the national Symposium, be planned with the assistance of the National Catholic Educational Associa­ tion, so that ideas developed at this national meeting may' be enlarged, refined and, where posS,ible, implemented. . .

lEmph@lf§gXeS Need for Pupil Aid mnLouisiana NEW ORLEANS (NC) 'i'he executive director of 'Citizens for Educational Freedom says non-pubHc schools saved ;Louisiana taxpey­ ers more than' $7'7 million during ',elle past~school year.

"This -is the additional amount It would have cost Louisiana taxpayers to, operate 'public schools if the' non:"public schools had not absorbed 151,716 chil­ dren," Emile ComaI' a~sel'ted.

Comar-local director of an organization which seeks tuition 6upplements for children in non­ public schools-said incl'eased pupil costs in 66 of 67 public school systems in the state points up the need for cooperation be­ tween public and non-public schools.

He also warned that tax sav­ ings will be abolished if non­ public sch60ls are forced to <elose because 'of bheir increased , eosts. ' Costs Mounting ComaI' referred to figures re­ leased by: the State Department of Education showing that aver­ age per pupil cost for public education in Louisiana jumped from $437,.78 in 1965-66 to $507,54 'in 1966.:'67. ' "We have been pointing out the critical financial status of ~th public and non-public­ 'lIChools," he stated. "The 13.86 per cent rise in public schools 'education costs in 1966-67 over 1965-66 shows' the accelerating Illeeds of elementary and high oohool programs."

Comar emphasized costs will go up even higher with the an­ ticipated increase in public school teacher salaries to be voted on by the legislature in May. Wiser Course o

i'CEF recognizes that the increases are vital to the progress of public education;" he stated.

"It calls, to public attention, however, the fact that the nonpublic school costs also are rising sharply and bhe increase will force many of them to close their doors unless the state pro-, vides tuition supplements to nonpublic school students.

"It seems wiser to assume that the state can pay some small portion of the cost of educating children in non-public schools" than to take on the full cost as children transfer into public schools," CQmar declared.
