Final Diocesan Tribute To Venerable Prelate To a congregation in Mt. Carmel Church, New Bedford, . that overflowed into the bordering streets, Rt. Rev. Hum­ berto S. Medeiros, Diocesan Chancellor and pastor of St., Michael's Church, Fall River, painted a word picture in a eulogy that will make the late Monsignor Antonio P. Vieira live forever in the minds of the hearers. Msgr.

Vieira, 98 years of age and a priest 75 years, died in Mt. Car­ mel Rectory Goo d F rid a y morning after a brief illness.

Taking his text from the 20th ehapter of St. Matthew's Gospel - "The Son of Man came not to be served but to serve and gave His life for the redemption of many" - the eulogist stated: -Monsignor Vieira passed his whole life in the service of truth which frees man and in the ser­ ~ice of life which leads to eter­ nal happiness."

"He was a priest, and in the ehurch of Christ, a priest exer­ cises a function which is con­ fided to him by the same Church.

He accomplishes the mission that Christ r e c e i v e d from His Heavenly Father - the salvation of th~ human race. The Church is commissioned to teach the l'evealed word of God and to

'Come, Visit. Our Feasts' To Be· Liturgical Tour of Six Fall River Homes

ATLANTIC CITY (NC) - Pope Paul VI and Presi­ dent Johnson both appealed to Catholic educators here to

The 'Fan River Catholic Woman's Club invites you to Come, Visit Our Feasts. That's the attractive heading on a gay red and white folder describing a tour of six Fall River homes, to take place Saturday and Sunday, April 11 and 12, from 1 to 4 each afternoon.

The homes will be decorated for Advent; Christmas and Epiphany; Holy Thursday and Good Friday; Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday; Pente­ ,.-cost and Corpus Christi; and the Cana Feast. A committee

increase their efforts to over­ come ignorance, poverty and disease.

The Pope, in a message sent on his beha1£ to the 61st annual convention of the National Cath_ olic Educational Association, spoke of the Church's work to overcome poverty and "other ills of our wounded nature" so that men can devote themselves more completely to "the all important duty of caring for their souls."

President Johnson, in his greetings to the convention of nearly 12,000 Catholic educators, said that "the plagues of our contemporary society" can be made to yield through determi­ nation and persistence.

'Dedicated Efforts' The Pontiff, in a message sent

by Amleto Cardinal Cicognani, Papal Secretary of State, was described as following with "deep interest the dedicated ef­ forts of those engaged in the noble work of Catholic educa­

including decorators, a hostess and a narrator will be on duty at each home to explain signi­ ficance of displays and religious symbolism.

The Fall River' project was inspired by a similar successful tour sponsored last April by New Bedford Catholic Woman's Club.

It will be followed Sunday, April 26 by a tour in Falmouth under auspices of St. Patrick's women's guild. All tours will fol­ low the same general pattern.

It explains that "Come, Follow Our Feasts" is "a review of the feasts of the liturgical year in the homes of our neighboring Christian fami­ tion." lies." It expresses the hope that "The Catholic Church, througll. those taking the tour will adopt the centuries, has endeavored to some of the liturgical customs diffuse the light of education in depicted to keep their homes order that ignorance, poverty and Christ-centered throughout the disease and the many other ills year. of our wounded human nature Advent will be honored in might be conquered, because in the home of Dr. and Mrs. Rich­ her wisdom she knows that men ard Donovan, 657 Han 0 ve r who are relieved of the anxi­ Street.

Reports Church Still Persecuted In Yugoslavia MADRID (NC)-Despite the impressions tourists may carry home with them, the Catholic Church in Yugo­ slavia is still harried by govern­ ment restrictions and persecu­ tions, it is reported here by Alianza del Credo, which des­ cribes itself as an information agency of the persecuted Church.

In the Adriatic resort center of Dubrovnik, for example, a visitor may find churches opened, holy days celebrated, and the Church apparently functioning normally.

But this, said the news agency is a show intended to impres~ visitors to Yugoslavia, the only I!"on Curtain country open to foreign tourists. In reality, the Church has neither the funds nor the freedom necessary to carry out its ministry.

Catholic Faithful In villages and on farms chn­ dren still attend private cate­ chism classes, but in cities they are lured away by government "youth groups." Adults learn they must cooperate with the government if they want to maintain social and financial security, the agency said. .

Churches damaged in the war are rebuilt at government ex­ pense only to b'e com e "mu­ seums." Seminaries have no funds to support themselves, so many candidates for the priest­ hood must be turned away. ."In spite of all this," the agency conclUded, the CatholiC! of Yugoslavia,' particularly in Croatia, "remain faithful to theh Church and sacrifice themselves for her."

Bishops Discuss Liturgical Decree Continued from Page One themselves the extent to which the Vatican Council's Liturgi­ cal Decree may be put to force here in the United States.

The major question facing the country's bishops is the vernacu­ lar: what, in the Church's wor­ ship, shall be said in the people's language from now on? Through­ out the world, the bishops of various areas have already met in similar "little counclls" to adapt the Council's Decree to their particular needs. Now it's our turn.

Procedure The U.S. prelates are to de­ bate certain questions. The Council decreed that from now on, the sacraments will normal­ ly be administered in the peo­ ple's language. It also decided that some vernacular will form part of the Mass, Le., not that a commentator can parauhrase the priest but that the priest can of­ ficially pray in English, French, Italians, Swahili, ete. from now on.

The main problem concerning the vernacular is the text to be ,psed for this welcomed change.

The bishops will have to choose

Holy Cross Begins Alumni Drive A kickoff dinner was held last night to launch the solicitation among the Holy Cross College alumni living in Southeastern Massachusetts for the college's Development Fun d campaign.

William J. Casey of Taunton, Regional Chairman for the cam­ paign, presided at the dinner meeting which was also ad­ dressed by Rev. William L. Keleher, S.J., Coordinator <If Development at Holy Cross and former President of Boston C<ll­ lege, and William F. Tonne, Di­ rector of Development.

Casey announced the appoint­ ment of district chairmen within the region who will supervise the fund-raising efforts. They are: George J. Allietta of Fal­ Mouth, Richardd. Brown of New Bedford, Peter J. Gazzola of Attleboro, F. Hamilton Lane, Jr. of Taunton, Richard E. Max­ well of South Yarmouth, Thomas F. Patenaude of North Dart­ mouth, Daniel J. Sheahan of Fall River, Gerald V. Sheehan of Plymouth and Luke L. Smith of New Bedford.

Holy Cross is engaged ina long-range $20.4 million pr<l­ gram for increased endowment and improved physical. facilities, the initial goal of which is $7.5 million by the end of 1964. To date, more than $4;7 million has been pledged by alumni and friends of the college, the oldest Catholic college in New England.

an already existing text or com­ pose one themselves. It is not an unforeseen problem. A com­ mission of American bishops has already been working on this and will submit its report to the entire American hierarchy for its approval or to adopt further suggestions.

Then the final decision arid text will be sent to Rome. Once it has won the Holy See's ap­ proval, a date shall be set on which all dioceses will switch to the new ritual and missal. The Vatican Council will then visibly seep into each of <lur parishes and .homes.

Some Already Some of the world's bishops have already met in this way and have submitted their recom­ mendations to Rome. Australia's bishops stated that they had "ar­ rived at definite decisions per­ mitting some .use of English in the liturgy." However, the Holy See's approval must be had be­ fore the changes go into effect.

"When the decision of the Sovereign Pontiff has been re­ ceived, each bishop will com­ municate it to his own people."

Belgium received such a per­ mission just a few days before Feb. 16. Canada has permitted the priest to read the Epistle and Gospel directly in either French or English. The texts to . be used are the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine text or that of the Association Episco­ pale Liturgique of Paris.

Frence has dec ide d that "French is to be used in the ad­ ministration of the sacraments, in the lessons of the Easter Vigil, etc." Where translations cannot be found in the 1955 French­ Latin Ritual any of eight ap­ proved French missals can be used.

Gradual Change .

The South African hierarchy has decided that the vernacular shall be introduced there in stages: (I) the reading of the Epistle and Gospel in the ver­ nacular directly to the faithful at masses for the people; (2) the recitation on the vernacular of the Kyrie, Gloria, Creed, Sanc­ tus, Pater Noster and Agnus by the celebrant and the people together; (3) further use of the vernacular particularly in the first part of the Mass.

Each bishop is to announce the dates for the various stages for his own diocese. Texts will be taken from the St. Andrew Bible Missal, other Mrikaans texts, and the Canadian Mass Directory. .

The Vatican C<luncil is far from being a .simple recording of ideal decisions in history books, <lr speculative musings on future deliberations. This week, by the grace of God ­ through the grace of God - the active flow of the influence of the Holy Spirit will be turned in our own direction.

Well could we pray, therefore, both that the bishops might be given light by their and our Di­ vine Shepherd and that we too might receive inspiration and courage to accept and put into practice with all vigour that which He has decided, and asked, and awaits.

See Has Diocesan Vocations Councils LITTLE ROCK (NC) - Bish­ op Albert L. Fletcher has named 15 priests to the Little Rock Diocesan V<lcations Council, and plans to form vocations councils of men and women Religious.

Plans call for three visits each year to all Catholic schools in the diocese by representatives of the councils. Arrangements are being made f<lr a followup program to maintain contact with students who show interest in religious life.

WINNER: Winner of scholarships to Rivier Col­ lege and St. Joseph's, West Hartford, is Florence Le­ maire, senior at Mt. St. Mary Academy, Fall River. A high­ est honor student, active in athletics, and vice-president of the student council, Miss Lemaire plans to major in modern languages.

Orders Revision In Sung Masses MONTREAL (NC:. Paul Emile Cardinal Leger has or­ dered the elimination of the !?inging of the Asperges Me at the beginninb of sung Masses.

Writing in the diocesan La Semaine Religieus c, the cardinal explained that the singing of the Asperges Me interferes with the carrying owt of the Introit at the opportune moment when it has its greatest significance "The Introit, as the name indi_ cates, is truly a hymn of entry which should be carried out while the celebrant is advancing to the altar, as the instruction' De Musica Sacra (Sept. 3, 1958) recalled," he stated.

Chicago Promote Liturgy Program CHICAGO (NC) - Auxiliary Bishop Aloysius J. Wycislo has been appointed chairman of the Chicago Archdiocesan Liturgi­ cal Commission. Albert Cardinal Meyer, Archbishop of Chicago, has named 15 priests, two nuns, three laymen and one laywoman to the commision, established in accordance with the consti­ tution on the liturgy to promote the liturgical aposto1ate.

MECHELEN-AAN-DE-MAAS (NC)-The power of the Catho­ lic press here in Belgium has been demonstrated tangibly by the laying of the foundation stone of a vacation center for handicapped children, the first of its kind in the country.

The projected "Queen Fabiola Home" is the result of a fund_ raising campaign launched four months ago by the Union of Belgian Catholic Newspapers, made up by a score of news­ papers whose total circulation is some 1.4 million.

In less than two months, the appeal raised $168,000, and the subscription list 'Vas closed. In addition, private concerns do­ na-ted a 25-acre tract in the fa­ mous Limburg heathland moors hard by the northeast border with the Netherlands.

Representatives of the Queen,

the Church, the government and the newspaper union particl­ . pated in the stone-laying rite,.

Bishop Guillaume van Zuylen or Liege blessed the foundation stone.

The home which is rising above it will be on one level, with no steps to impede crippled children. Everything is planned so that children :.n wheelchainl or on crutches willl be able to circulate as easily as possible.

Says Racism Has Tragic Results

For Oppressors and Victims

.

NEW YORK (NC) - Archbishop Lawrence J.Shehan savs he sees no reason for panic about the future of paro­ chIal schools, despite the vigorous criticism they face to­ day in some quarters. The Archbishop of Baltimore says that a major study' upholds national basis in 1960, "Catholic the competence of academic

instructions in par 0 chi a 1 schools, that the shortage of Sister-teachers is not a decline but a temporary interruption in the flow of nuns to classrooms, and that the financial burden d<les not warrant pessimism.

Arc h b ish 0 p Shehan, who makes his 0 b s e r vat ion s in America magazine, a national weekly review (April 4), is a widely known commentator on education.

The Archbishop, taking n{)te of (he criticism of Catholic schools, said he is not concerned when defects are criticized and oon­ structive proposals for improve­ ment put forward.

But he adds: 'What causes us apprehension is that some of our own people should attack the very existence of the paro­ chial schools, as if they had be­ come an unbearable burden, dragging the Church down, im­ peding her progress and pre­ venting her from fulfilling her mission to the people of thig country."

Comparative Performances Archbishop Shehan, is making bis response to charges that the quality of education in the schools is poor, point9 to the 1963 publication of a study giving comparative performances of eighth grade public and Catho­ lic school students who took the Science Research Associates high school placement tests in 1959 and 1960.

The authors of the study, he reported, concluded that on a

school eighth grade groups showed significantly higher levels of achievement in three curriculum areas than did pub­ lic school eighth grade groups."

The Archbishop writes: "The 1959 tests, administered to 80,000 children of public schools and 60,000 of parochial schools, showed that the group from parochial schools showeJi a mean grade equivalent one year higher than the other sample.

Predicts Financial Relief "The 1960 tests, administered to 120,000 public school students and 100,000 from par 0 chi a I schools, showed that the Catholic school students scored about one­ half a year higher on their achievement tests in language arts, arithmetic and reading."

The prelate said ~hat the ap­ parent decline in the number of Sisters available as teachers is due chiefly to two. decisions: to send up to 10 per cent of each major community to overseas missions and to hold nuns back from the classroom until they have completed their education.

He said that there is no reason to doubt -the future will gee an increase in the number of teaching Sisters.

Archbishop Sheehan also said a financial burden exists, but he expressed c () n f ide n c e that parents will make sacrifices to support the schools and that re­ lief in the form of tax credits or other public aid "may not be so fa!" away as it seemed a few years ago.'"

Canadian to Rebuild Mission Center for Jesuit Martyrs TORONTO (NC) - Fort Ste. Marie, the mission center for the Canadian Jesuit martyrs, is to be rebuilt by the Ontario g<lvernment.

Premier John Robarts has an­ nounced the first stage of a multi-million-dollar historical project to be klKlwn as the Huro­ nia Project.

Fort Ste. Marie was the site of the first white settlement in Ontario, near Midland on Geor­ gian Bay. It was the western terminus of the 8ll-mile 17th century fur trade route between Quebec and Huronia.

Stace of Projed Rebuilding of Fort Ste. Marie will oost about $1,000,000. It is one stage of the entire Huronia Project which will eventually include military and naval estab­ lishments of nearby Fort Pene­ tanguishene, a large Huron vil­ lage and possible reconstructi{)n of Fort ste. Marie 11 on Chris­ thm Island.

Travel and Publicity Minister ;rames Auld said an estimated 250,000 persons each year visit the Canadian Martyr.i shrine, directed by the Jesuits. It is about 200 yards from the site of the front.

Key Role in Drama Fort Ste. Marie, founded by St. Isaac Jogues, played a key role in the Jesuit missionary drama of New France, as' it was from here that - they fanned out to spread the Gospel among the Indians.

The eight Jesuits, who died at the hands of the Iroquois, in­ cluded six priests - Isaac ;ro­ gues, Jean de Brebeuf, Gabriel Lalemant, Ant 0 i n e Daniel, Charles Garnier and Noel Cha­ banel, and two assistants, Rene Goupil and Jean de Lalande.

Their memory is hOJ;lOred as the Canadian Martyrs in Canada, and in the United States as the ;resuit Martyrs of North America.

Holy See Helps UN Projects UNITED NATIONS - (N"C) The Holy See has made a token contribution of $1,000 each ·to the United Nations Training and Research Institute and the In­ ternational School.

The Training and Research Institute, scheduled to open in New York in september of this year, is being financed by vol­ untary. contributions from gov­ ernmental and private so~s.

Its purpose is to provide and train high caliber personnel, particularly from the develop­ ing countries, for national ser­ vice and for service witb the United Nations and the special­ ized agencies, and to provide a high level research center to deal with some of the major problems faced by the U.N., in­ cluding the techniques and ma­ chinery of its operations.

The program of the institute will be geared mainly to fur­ thering the goals of the U .. N. de. velopment decade, a concerted push for economic and social de­ velopment first proposed to the U.N. General Assembly by Pres­ ident John F. Kennedy.

The International School is attended by children of U.N. delegates and other diplomats as well as by a number of New York City children. It is sup­ ported largely through the U.N. Gift Center. Funds are being solicited for new facilities. .

CINCINNATI (NC) - A soci­ ologist observed here that racism has tragic results for oppressors as well as for their victims.

John Howard Griffin, author of the book "Black Like Me," told some 1,500 persons in Xavier University Fieldhouse the "na­ tional conscience" must speak out against "the system" of racism in the U.S. He said his own experience of traveling and working in the­ South with his skin dyed brown made it clear that "to be pig­ mented is to be imprisoned."

"From the moment I became a Negro," he said, here, "I was no longer considered to be an in­ dividual. I was the sterotype that we make of' Negroes' * * * irresponsible, indolent, possessed of a marvelous sense of rhythm."

He related "no white persons

ever asked me my name. It was

.always 'boy,' or 'uncle,' or some­

thing worse." He said while his

skin was dyed, he was hired only for such jobs as shining shoes, unloading trucks and serving as porter in a bus station.

Griffin described "the system" as a "complex of traditions and customs, plus local discrimina­ tory ordinances," which deny the Negro the full benefits of citi­ zenship'­ Abuse of Sight The "system," he explained, says in effect that "we Negroes are citizens, should pay taxes, and should defend our country

'Dead Soldiers' Cut Traffic Accidents LIMA (NC)-"Dead soldiers" guard the highway of Peru's capital city to help cut down traffic accidents and highway deaths.

The "dead soldiers," as they are popularly called, are humps in the road before main high­ ways and traffic signals. They are large enough. so that no one can go over them excep~ at a very low speed-and the heavier traveled highways have two of them within a space of about 15 feet.

Horrifying

PAVU

An editorial in The New York Times for last Saturday said, "Seldom has The Times published a more horrifying story than its account of how 38 respectable, law-abiding, middle-class Queens citizens watched a killer stalk his ,young woman victim in a parking lot in Kew Gardens over a half-hour period without one of them making a call to the Police Department that might have saved her life."

REV. JAMES· A. CLARK

Assistant Director

Latin American Bureau, NCWC

The story was indeed a frightening - one - a killer stabbing his victim three separate times over a half-hour period, a neighborhood refusing to heed the victim's pleas for help, a number of good people refusing to shout out or to even to make an anonymous phone call to the police to save a person's life. .

It is monstrous that people are so lacking in a sense of personal responsibility for their neighbors that they blind their eyes to a neighbor's serious plight. The "I didn't want to get involved" mentality kills decency and con­ science.

The independent attitude of individuals today should not make them forget that people need people. In gone-by eras, a whole neighborhood felt responsible for the safety - physicai and moral- of the neighborhood children and dwellers. Now people boast that they have lived in a place for months and years and have never spoken with their neighbors.

-The community spirit is needed. That means not only support for organizations aimed at helping the community.

It means helping a next-door neighbor, a sense of personal· responsibility for him without trying to run his life. '

Lou Hogan, a Papal Vol­ unteer who has returned from his completed assign­ ment in Peru, tells of meet­ ing a fellow North American on a bus traveling through the Per­ ilous passes of the mountains of Peru some 14,000 feet up.

While riding this "roof of the world" the pas­ senger ask e d Lou what his purpose was in being in Peru.

Always ready for an opening such as that, Lou launched into a locution on the program.

Lou was proud of his di~ course, until when leaving, the traveler quipped: "Well, good luck with your pupil's volun­ teers." Lou hadn't even gotten across the right name for the program.

For Professionals Many a pupil would probably be happy to volunteer for South America on these inviting Spring afternoons. However, the pro­ gram is not for pupils but for professionals.

The Peace Corps suffers from a similar confusion of title. Some refer to them as Peace Cops or the Peace Corpse--a mistake at_ tributable to a lack of knowledge of English rather than any dis­ like for the Corps.

General Hershey~head of the Selective Service--on receiving an increasing number of re­ quests for draft deferments by prospective volunteers, report­ edly threw up his hands in dis­ may and queried: "W'hy doesn't someone tell me what this Papal Volunteer program is all about!Complex Situation Actually the program is a par­ tial solution to a complex situ­ ation.

Talented tradesmen, craftsmen and those with a pro­ fession offer their services to a bishop in South or Central America. They do not replace local laymen but rather provide an ability that is not locally available.

If a bishop, for example, wishes to begin a credit union or co-op he may 'not be able to find among his own people an ac­ countant or a bookkeeper. Then he appeals to the Church in other countries to help.

As of the present there are some 281 people working in the field and another 18 in training.

It is a ~all force but strategi­ cally placed it can be a very beneficial aid to the Church.

We expect to send a minimum of ] 00 a year in the next few years.

New Society Begins Latin America is the only Catholic continent in the world and it is therefore a place where Catholic concern for the poor and social teaching can be put into practice.

VATICAN CITY (NC) The Sacred Roman Rota, high Church court of ap­ peals, judged 156 of the 616 cases 'pending before it during 1963. Of. the 156 judgments handed down, 153 concerned nul­ lity of marriage. In 76 cases a marriage was ruled null or not consumated, while in 77 the marriage bond was maintained.

Too other three cases con­ cerned financial matters, , Two hundred cases were re­ moved from the Rota's schedUle during that year because of the death of one of the parties to a case, settlement out of court, inability of the parties to "con­ tinue the case, incompetence of the court in the matter under litigation, or lapse of time.

A third of the cases were handled without charge or at part cost.

Mrs; Beard charged the shared­ time program has "made a guinea­ pig out of my daughter and I am afraid that it may have last­ ing effects on her character and social outlook."

She confessed the experiment has been' confusing to her as well as her daughter.

The first class was held at 'the BaptiSt church where 30 adults-most of them Negroes and non-Catholic!r-gazed uncer­ tainly at the Sisters and their strange garments.'

Father P.oage,. who is respon­ sible for the organization of the project, said it was the decision of J;>ope Paul VI to institute a world prayer day for vocations.

The event will be held annually on.the feast of the Good Shep­ herd, the second Sunday after Easter, in every diocese through- . out the world. This year the date is April 12.

"On Jan. 23 of this. year," .

Father Poage said, "the Pope sent a directive to the vocation offices of the Sacred Congrega­ tions of Seminaries and Univer­ sities and of the Religious estab­ lishing the new observance.

"The directive said the day was to be called a universal day of prayer for vocations, without any distinction between diocesan '.

CINCINNATI (NC) - Sisters are called by their religious vocation to "a thorough involve­ ment in the lives of fellow Christians," -F a the r Carroll Stuhlmueller, C.P., Scripture expert and author, said here.

He spoke at a religious vo­ cation month workshop spon­ sored by the Archdiocesan Vocation Endeavor Committee which drew some 500 Sisters of 28 communities working in the Cincinnati archdiocese.

The other principal speaker was Sister Mary Josetta, execu­ tive secretary of the Conference of Major Superiors of Women.

Also underscoring the need of Religious to be involved in parish and community, she de­ clared: "Unless the woman vowed to God in the religious' state bears God to the world, she has failed in her Christian commitment."

Father Stuhlmueller, a pro­ fessor at the Passionist Fathers' Seminary in Louisvillt:, Ky., told

the Sisters: "The religious vocation is none other than the Christian vocation intensely embraced and vigorously followed out."

"Men and women must be able to look to the religious and dis­ cover in them, as they' can most fUllY in Christ Jesus, their most humiliating struggles, their fin­ est hopes, and their most heroic triumphs," he said. . Sister Mary J osetta, former president of St. Xavier College, Chicago, said nuns are "first and foremost '" '" '" women. To cease being a woman because we:have offered our womanhood to Christ in His Church is to hand Him an empty vessel, a gift without meaning, a gift without unction."

Since woman is "a life-bear­ er," she continued, "so ·the nun must bear lif~; this is her func­ tion by the nature God has given her. And through her vow of chastity she becomes a bearer of the Christ-life."

Canada's Family Allowance Act Aids Millions OTTAWA (NC) - MilJions of Canadian families have been helped in the past 20 years bya government program which has distributed $6.6 bUllion to help feed, clothe and educate children.

Called the Family Allowance Act, it has had a major impact on' the country's economic de­ velopment and is today woven so completely into the economic fabric that its cessation would have grave consequences.

Under the program mothers" are sent each month ; non-tax­ able contribution based on $6 a month for each child up to and including the age of nine years' and $8 a month for each child 10 years of age and up to 16.

Although the program began in con t r 0 v e r s y, today it is whole-heartedly endorsed not only by virtually all social agencies, but all major political parties.

Helps Prevent Breakups Father John A. McDonald, di­ rector of Catholic Family Ser­ vices here, praises the program as the principal means of help­ ir..1 to prevent breakuP'!! in families which have financial worries.

"Even the limited relief of financial pressure from the fam­ ily allowance act creates a bet­ ter atmosphere which can only be of benefit to the children," he said.

Canadian Finance Minister Walter Gordon has announced that despite an otherwise hold­ the-line budget, the government will propose an extension to Parliament in the near future.

Gordon said a $10-a-month al. lowance for 16 and 17-year-old school pupils will be reconi. mended. .

Whether the proposal meets with acceptance or rejection, the present program will continue.

The Federal government's De­ partment of National Health and Welfare has distributed $6,672,­ 542,411 since 1945 and surely will pass the $7 billion mark by 1965.

As of December, 1963, aIlow­ ances were being paid for 6,708,311 children in 2,704,614 families, an average monthly payment per family of $16.62 These figures mean that one­ third of Canada's population is receiving the allowances, a re­ markable undertaking by a na­ tion in the interest of its future citizens.

Two Priests Serve Americans AbrQad VATICAN CITY (NC) - Two U.S. priests Fathers Paul E. Brewer, S.J., of Detroit and Jerome R. Lawyer, C.S.C., of Al_ bany, N.Y., are now working ex­ clusively among Americans em­ ployed in Caracas, Venezuela, and Madrid.

Officials of the Sacred Consi­ storial Congregation said they are the first priests to be as.­ signed exclusively to caring for American workers in foreign countries.

The congregation is in charge of the Church's program to pro­ vide s p i r i t u a 1 assistance to migrants and emigrant workers in various nations. Numerous centers and missions have been set up for European workers in different countries, but up to last year no provision had been made for Americans.

Train Corpsmen WASHINGTON (NC) - The Peace Corps has signed a con­ tract with St. Louis University, a Jesuit institution, for training volunteers, the agency ad'vised U.S. Sens. Stuart Symington and Edward V. Long of Missouri.

~Poor

'S~():res: Professor's Brand Of Econom'ic Anarchy

'God Love"You

By Most Rev. ,Fulton J. Sheen, D.D., A Program For Making Us Catholic.

It is the nature of affluence to blind us to the needs and wants of others. The rich man never saw Lazarus at his door; God called the rich church of Laodicea in the Apocalypse the "poorest"· of all the churches. The prosperious Church becomes the ghetto ClIUrch. A dead parish is like the Dead Sea. The latter receives 'fresh waters from the River Jordan, but it has no outlet. It 'keeps them all for itself and is dead.

By Msgr. George G. Higgins One of the few incidental advantages - if there are any advantages at all- of spending as much time in air­ ports and railroad stations as this writer is required to do in the performance of his duties is that one has an opportunity to sample a wide recting this dreadful situation variety of local newspapers py repealing all of our minimum

,.,

';

sure, what 'the transient passen­ ger reads in, these local .papers is not always to hir liking but, then" you can't win them all.

Recently, for,

example, ,as I

was waiting for a, 'plane in, a

mid. Western

airport, I picked up a copy of the Chicago, Daily News to while away the time. And there, as big as life, on the front page of the financial section, was a two or three-column story headed "'Excessive Pay Called a Charity Operation;" Of all the recent newsp'aper stories not to my Uklng, this one takes the cake.

Refers to Averag~ Cit,iz,ens When I saw ~he headl~e "'Ex­ eesi;;ive Pay Called' a Charity Opera~ioil," I iriiinedilltely as­ SInned that SOr,'le ,ec~nomist or pOlitician or rabble -ro~ing Jabar, leader must, have, said IIOm~thing that morniDg about the high salaries which are paid to certain corporation execu­ tives, movie stars, or what have JIOu. ' , But that merely goes to show, that I am probably too innocent and too naive to be traveling around the· country all the time without a keeper, for the head­ Une .in question' referred, not· to people in' the upper inCome brackets, but rather to average American citizens at the bottom' or near the bottom of the na­ tiOnal .economic tOten1 pole. I~;s their "excessive pay" 'that the headline-": quoting a,distin.. lUished econ:omist train the University of Chicago-charac­ terized as a "charity operation."

Simple to Find It seems that the economist in question-Dr. Yalp. Brozen, Pro­ fessor of Economics at the Uni­ yersity of Chicago Graduate School of Business Administra­ tion-had given a speech that day at a meeting of the Ameri­ ean Newspa,per Publishers' As­ lIOCiation. He told the assembled pUblisl).ers that those firms that pay more than necessary to ob­ tain the work force they require are not businesses but charitable operations.

Never having had any expe­ rience with charitable operations of this description-and, for that matter, never 'having heard of tIwl existence o~ sUch strange phenomena - I could hardly wait to find out how they can 'be recognized by the average

'uninitiated cifizen.

It's as simple as. pie. As I get :.. they include a large, but un­ specified pereentage of· ,those COP'lpanies in the United States whose worke!'s are protected, by minimum wage lows and/or be­ long to unions. , Professor Brozen waS quoted by the News as having estimated that 10 per cent of the workers,in the U. S. labor force receive wage rates about 15 per cent' higher than they would if there were no wage laws and if there were no governmental support, of unions.

Presumbably, then, the P.ro­ fessor would be in favor of cor-

,for .the·. lord' •.

In order that we In America might be more united with the suffering, impoverished Christ in the rest of the world, It would be well for us, instead of traveling the "Via Dollarosa," to begin a Via Dolorosa in the following way: I. Give three per cent of ali parish con­ 'struction costs to the' Holr 'Father for the

propagation of the Faith iil other lands

and for the feeding of their poor. If we'

can afford a million dollar school; we can give the equivalent of five churches in mis­

sion lands, eaeh costing $6,000.

2. Many of the priests in, the :tWisslons live ,on mass stipends, with no other source of income or livelihood. Priests in the United States could send their stipends to The Society for, the Propagatiou of the Faith which distributes them to bishops in mission lands and they, In turn, to needy priests. In this way there is equitable distribution to all orders, all societies and aU areas in ,the Missions. ' '3. High school, students, both young men and young women., could make sacrifices. to buyj'eeps for mission lands. Once suf­ ficient money was collected to pay for a jeep and the transpor­ tation for a missionary, the'money could be sent to the Holy ,Father and his Sacred' Congregation, who would assign the .,jeep to the neediest. mi$Sion. . . f. Housewives and, mothers could glither Spare' clothes and •send them to a misslonaIT lJDder. the direction ,of their DiocesaD Director of The Society, for the Propaga,tion ,of the Faith.

5. Doctors, surgeons, dentists and engineers could offer their serv-Jces for twoJl)onths ~ the year to the poor pec)lJle·in some 'mission land under the iureetion ofllie Catholic MelIlcal Mission Board (10 West l'7thS~eetNewYork,New York) • .

which protect the right of labor to organize.

This would seem to be a rea­ sonable presumption, for later on in the course of his speech to the publishers, Professor Brozen explicitly urged the repeal of the Federal Walsh-Healy and ,Davis-Bacon Acts.

Dr. Brozen described these two prevailing-wage statutes as pernicious acts which, on the one hand, increase costs to the government and increase our taxes, and, on the other hand, prevent people from getting jobs. He has substantially the same objection to wages set under minimum wage statutes or by means of collective bar­ gainjng.

Baltimore Paper Scores Wallace­ Primary Bid BALTIMORE (NC)-The Catholic Review here has described A I a bam a Gov. George C. Wallace as a "ded­ icated racist" and said it cannot see how a patriotic American can give him an endorsement.

The official new~aper of the Baltimore archdiocese noted that Wallace has become a candidate hi the· Maryland Democratic Presidential primary on May 19.

"Since Gov. Wallace is such a racist, we fail to see how any patriotic American, much less an informed, conscientious Cath­ olic could give him an endorse­ ment," the paper said.

THE ANCHCR­ Thurs., April 2, 1964

Cardinal Koenig Press Conference

Continued from Page One of the United States. "The Fourth Session might be the last but there are still so many things to discuss and ro decide." He told the newsmen in answer ro questions that he "doubts that Cardinal Mindszenty will be al­ lowed to leave Hungary soon. I know there is a lessening of ten­ sion between Church and State in some Communist countries but I believe that the situation varies greatly from one country to another. There has been a tremendous improvement in Yu­ goslavia but not in Hung·ary?

Journalists in Austria and elsewhere in Europe know more about this than I do. I do know that contact has been established and discussions held. There is hope that he will be able to leave sometime in the future, but I doubt that it will be soon.

There is some indication," he said," that communists are be­ ginning 'to realize that they will not be able ro eliminate religion entirely and some hope that they may be able ·still to look for ways in which they can live with the Church." He noted a new in­ terest in Religion, which is re­ portedly growing among the . students in Iron Curtain cOlm-' tries, and said that this interest is "religious - not academic."

He added that so far the interest seemed to be expressed chiefly by asking questions, not by making any committment.

"The Ecumenical ''Council has already had a great influence in Austria and throughout Europe on both sides of the Iron Cur­ tain," the Austrian Prelate said.

"In my own country we have re­ latively few Protestants but our relations with them have been considerably improved. ."In evaluating the efforts of the Coun.cil we must distinguish

Score Church Lag On Racial Issue CLEVELAND (NC) - Two chief speakers a g r e e d that churches have failed to form a public conscience on the moral issue of racial discrimination in addresses at a two-day Confer­ ence on Religion and Race here.

Dan W. Dodson, director of New York University's center for human relations and com­ munity studies, said the most sensitive point in the racial crisis today is in the field of education.

Asserting' that he spoke as a Protestant for Protestants, Rev. Don Benedict said "first of all we must clean our own house" Church members must be taught to realize that "membership in Christian churches means that we acknowledge one God and Father of all - and that to re­ strict the opportunity of any man on the basis of his color is a sin."

Bishop Hyle Praises Open Housing Policy WILMINGTON (NC) - Wil­ mington's Bishop Michael W. yle has saluted the Home Builders Association of Dela­ ware for ending racial segrega­ tion in private housoing by adopting an open occupancy policy.

The Catholic prelate was joined by Orthodox, Protestant and Jewish religious leaders in praising the action which also was applauded by statewide and local civic and real estate groups.

Bishop Hyle said it is time "for us to think seriously about our own attitude on this ques­ tion, as we remember the words of Christ, 'Inasmuch as you do it unto these, the least of Mine you do it unto Me.' For the ey~ of God there is neither Jew nOl' Gentile, neither white nor black; but only man."

between the formal acts of the Council - which have been established few and small so far - and the other informal ef- . fects. The internal history of the Church seems profoundly changed: the attitude of the Bishops are being modified in situations that are far more im­ portant than the Church's' of-' ficial acts. Opinions are being changed under the influence of discussion. European Bishops are gaining a whole new view of the Church, as they hear from the Bishops in Africa, in North America and the other con­ tinents."

He described the full Ameri­ can Hierarchy participation "as very important" and said that the voices of North American Bishops were "decisive" on some questions such as the question of whether. Mariology should be treated in a separate chapter.

Among the important items 'on unfinished business, he men­ tioned Ecumenism, Religious freedom, the relation of the Church in a modern world, the family, the subject of peace and war, and social questions.

He expressed confidence that the question of collegiality of Bishops will be decided as a majority of Council Fathers have defined it. There will be a theological discussion of it on the theoretical level and on the pastoral level. A council of Bishops will be established to meet regularly once a. year or more often to advise the Pope.

As a member of the Council's Theologial Commission, Cardinal Koenig predicted the schema on the Church will be fully pre­ pared for discussion when the Council convenes again. . Cardinal Koenig is a member of the Theological Commission of the Second Vatican Council.

The 58-year-old Cardinal is con­ sidered to be one of the leading liberal Prelates of the Church.

Notre Dame Marks Birth of Galileo NOTRE DAME (NC) - The University of Notre Dame has announced plans for a Galileo Quantercentenary Con g res s starting T h u r s day April 9' during which 'speakers fro~ England, France, Germany and Italy as well as the United States will explore the life and work of the 17th century astronomer and physicist.

The event is believed to be the only major American observance of the 400th anniversary of Galileo's birth in 1564. Galileo, who was the first to bring ef­ fective observational support to the Copernicaln theory that the earth revolves around the sun, died in 1642. .

Two Beatif,i<:ation Causes Introduced VATICAN CITY (NC) - The beatification causes of two nine­ teenth century Italian priests both founders of congregatio~ of Sisters, have been introduced in Rome.

The Sacred Congregation of ~ites has begun to study the lIves of Father Luigi Scrosappi founder of the Sisters of Provi~ dence, and Father Benedetto Menni, founder of the Hospital Sisters of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. Father Menni was also Prior General of the Order of Hospitallers of St. John of God.

Urges Educators Seek to Improve Human Product LATROBE (NC) A ,Negro educator called here for re­ search to discover "tech­ niques for making man more honest, true,' Christian and democratic."

"If we can experiment and spend millions in an effort to make men hate, to teach them how ro destroy, surely we ought to be equally concerned with re­ search designed to improve the human product," said Benjamin E. Mays, president of Morehouse College in Atlanta, Ga. Mays spoke at an honors con­ vocation at St. Vincent College here in Pennsylvania. He re­ ceived an honorary doctor of ed­ ucation degree from' the Bene­ dictine school.

Backs Proposals For Scholarships LANSING (NC)-Gov. George Romney has thrown his support behind proposals for state-spon­ sored college scholarshiJ? pro­ grams that would permIt stu­ d~nts. to attend .the M~chigan in­ stItubon of thell' chOIce. Romney said the state should "encourag~ the expansion and use of pnvate colleges as well as public colleges."

"VVe should give very careful consideration to programs that' would tend' to encourage ex­ panded use of our private col­ lege facilities in meeting what is . obviously going ro be a tremen­ dous increase in the need for higher education facil ities," he said. .

Two scholarships bills are be­ fore the Michigan legislature.

Stressing that "if we cannot make men better, nothing else matters," Mays said the aim in education "should not be to de­ velop experts in physics, but * * * to develop a good man who is an expert in physics * * * In religion the aim should not be to develop eloquent preac-hers, but good men who ·are eloquent preachers."

He noted th~ prevalence of prejudice in society and said that even the churches "make few demands" in this matter.

"The man who hates members of other races and plots to, keep them down can be a deacon, a preacher or a!1 elder," he com­ mented.

One would authorize 2,000 schol­ arships of up to $800 each at an estimated cost of $300,000.

Both measures would cover tuition and fees They 0 ld be awarded on basis of a~li~y and financial need. All of Michigan's 16 Hberal arts college presidents have endorsed the proposal.

SAIGON (NC) - A weather worn, kindly faced man who once wore iron shackles in a communist prison has received the mitre, cope and crozier of an abbott here.

He was one of three who re­ ceived consecration in Saigon cathedral as the first Vietnam­ ese abbots. Their monasteries, all Cistercian of the common ob_ servance, now become abbeys.

Oldest of the three and the former prisoner is Abbot Em­ manuel Chu kim Tuyen,S.O.Cist..

65. He is abbot of Phuoc-son monastery, originally founded in what is now communist-ruled territory north of the 17th par. allel and later transferred to Thu.;.Duc, outside 'aigon.

Prisoner :eZ Months Abbot Tuyen spent 22 months as a prisoner of the communist Vietminh, as they were then known, in northcentral Vietnam.

During part of that time he was shackled hand and foot. When he was released, he was a long­ bearded, long-haired, half 'clad, enfeebled man.

Abbot S tan i s I a u s Truong dinh Vang, S.O.Cist., 58, heads the monastery in Phuoc-Ly, not far from Saigon. It was founded in 1950.

Youngest of the three is Ab­ bot Stephen Tran ngoc Hoang, S.O.Cisl, 36, whose monastery is neal' Dalat.

Pope Paul Lauds Cardinal Cushing For Mission Zeal

600-Mile Trip in Piper Cub Reveals Brazil's Potentials

BOSTON (NC) - Pope Paul VI has expressed "pro­ found appreciation" to Rich­ ard Cardinal Cushing of Bos­

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy One could go on writing about Brazil almost indefi­ nitely, so rich and fascinating a subject is it. But this series must draw to a close, and before it does, there are impres­ sions which one wants to communicate. They are taken at random from a bulging note­ sure to make 'it to one's room book, and one hopes that before nine when the elevators they will have the effect of stopped running. arousing interest in that And one stayed put until 10:15, country among readers of this column and inducing some of them to give Brazil a try. I think, for ex­ ample, of the trip to Petrop­

olis, a Summer

resort in the mountains, named for the Emperor Pedro II, who abol­ _.. ished slavery in 1888 and the following year was forced to abdicate by oppo­ nents of his humane and just policy.

The journey to Petropolis, an exhilarating ride into the moun­ tains, was made in the company of a very distinguished Brazilian gentleman whose surname, like those of other countrymen of his, is' unmistakably Irish.

His grandfather was Irish, and came to Brazil in the time of Pedro II; he was an engineer. The grand­ son speaks English perfectly and beautifully; he attended Stony­ hurst and Oxford. But this man's mother, a Brazilian lady of not­ able family, speaks virtually no English. She makes one royally welcome without it.

TV's Hazel Brazilians are warm-hearted and extraordinarily courteous. ' But this home into which one was so heartily received exem­ plified hospitality of a rare sort.

The stranger was here sincerely honored, made to feel that he was conferring a privilege on his delightful and charming hostess.

One was startled to hear a maid, many years with the fam­ ily and inclined to take a hand in its business, referred to as Hazel. In explanation, the tele­ vision set was pointed out.

Yes, the American program "Hazel" is seen in Brazil. It now is dubbed in Portuguese; at first, the dialogue was in English, with Portuguese subtitles, but the latter proved too small to "" read. It is gratifying to know --. that these highly cultivated peo­ ple have the advantage of such a staple of American culture as "Hazel," and right down to the last exquisite word.

Ration Electricity I have mentioned earFer the extreme contrasts in Brazil. On the very day that we went down to Santos, the old and still very busy coffee port, there were stories In the papers of devasta­ ting floods in other parts of the country: for example, in Bahia, with consequent landslides and loss of life.

But here, along the road de­ scending in giant loops to the sea, were vast reaches of bone­ dry land which constituted the utterly empty areas for water reserves, exhaused by a drought which has persisted for well over a year.

So severe is the drought that electricity is rationed, and there are daily power cuts. In Sao Paulo, for example, the electric­ ity in the hotel was off from nine to 10:15 every morning.

And if, as in my case, one's room was on the 18th floor, one hurried back from church to be

reading the hotel regulations (which were fairly bizarre) and the laundry lists (which were incredibly encyclopedic; evi­ dently they wash everything in Brazil).

Stunning Variety

Of Brazilian fauna and 'flora something should be said.

Friends at home profess disap­ pointment that one did not go up the Amazon; they see this as evidencing lack of nerve, rather than lack of time. But humid, steaming Belem, at the .mouth of this gargantuan river, was vis­ ited, and, both there and in aquariums and "Jotannnical and zoological gardens elsewhere, one saw the exotic trees, shrubs, flowers, beasts, birds, fishes of the Amazon region.

There is no point in trying to catalogue all these marvels; no doubt, absurd mistakes in no­ menclature and description would be made. Suffice it to say that birds and fishes are stun­ ning in variety, oddity, and color (especially, color combinations); that the range of fauna is equal_ ly amazing; that the monkeys are as clever as one would ex­ pect and more brightly arrayed.

On this trip, thousands of miles of Brazil were covered by air, sometimes in planes at great heights, once in a Piper Cub which didn't fly very high at all.

Spectacular Falls The ride in the Piper Cub was an unexpected experience.

We went down to Iguacu, on the border of both Argentina and Paraguay, to see the falls, which are touted as surpassing Niagara and Victoria. They are spectac­ ular.

But Igaucu is isolated. The tiny airporrt has no runway, only a grass surface. The hotel is 20 miles from it, over a nar­ row, bumpy, red dirt road cut t h r 0 ugh primitive country.

There is nothing to do there ex_ cept see the falls. Having seen them, we were ready to depart.

We were told, however, that we could not do so for several more days. This in spite of the fact that our ticket called for our departure on a certain day, tickets OK'd weeks before and reconfirmed at Iguacu. Stay at the hotel and wait for our sum­ mons, was the bland recommen­ dation, or order. There is no train. There is no bus. There are no other flights.

Brazil Panorama But we had a schedule to maintain, appointments to keep~ No one was interested in any of that. We spotted the Piper Cub, with "air taxi" emblazoned on its door, and arranged for its use.

The trip was one of 600 miles.

This enabled us to see coffee plantations, cat tie country, countless miles of wilderness swollen watercourses and arid riverbeds, hamlets and cities-a panorama of 'a certain portion of Brazil, and to grasp something of the extent, the potentials, and the problems of a land and a nation incalculab!:' important in the hemisphere, to our own country especially, and to the fate of the free world.

There is so much else one would ~lote. The slogans crUdely

ton for having established the Latin America missionary or­ ganization called the Society of St. James the Apostle.

The Pope's salute to the Car­ dinal and to the nearly 100 priests who form the society was in the form of a special auto­ graphed blessing which includes the Pope's photograph and signa­ ture, as well as a message des­ cribing the society as a "pro­ vidential instruction."

Occasion for the papal tribute is the fifth anniversary of the departure for Latin America of the first group of volunteers of the society. The group was founded in July, 1958, and its first volunteers departed six months later.

Future in College Theology Points To Greater Us'e of Lay Teachers

Apostolic Blessing Pope Paul particularly ac­ , knowledged his "sincere and profound appreciation for the work (the society) has accom­ plished for the Church in Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia." He "wholeheartedly" gave his apos_ tolic blessing "to all priests, Brothers, Sisters and laymen who help the society achieve its laudable goals."

Accompanying the tribute was a letter to Cardinal Cushing from Arc h b ish 0 p Antonio Samore, .vIce president of the Vatican's Pontifical Commission for Latin America. . Archbishop Samore praised the Cardinal as one of the "greatest 'benefactors of the Church in Latin America" and c9mmended the Society of St. James for having pioneered· in· "apostolic· collaboration between U.S. and Latin American Catho- ' lies."

Canada Cou~cil Honors Mem~ry Of Msgr. Coa~y

By Jack Kineavy The start of the 1964 baseball season is upon us, pre­ maturely, perhaps, but then the vagaries of early Spring in New England more often admit better weather during the first two weeks of April than during the latter half of the month. Such, I,\t least, Gibby.

Last year's 7-inning game innovation has been formalized by league offi­ cials who have also sanctioned two three-game weeks in order to complete the season before tournament play begins.

One of the most frustrating aspects of the national pastime involves its utter dependence upon the weather. Nowhere is this more true than here in New England at this time of the year.

Yet it remains for the South­ Houston, Texas, to be exact--to initiate the construction of an all weather stadium, the doJhed roof of which will cancel out the adverse effects of . inclement weather.

The stadium construction is reportedly progressing on sched­ ule. target date 1965. The roof, some 202 feet in height. has de­ fied the efforts of some strong fungo hitters to reach it and therefore is considered suffi­ ciently beyond the capabilities of normal batsmen.

Priests Discuss Civil Rights Bill With' ,President, WASHINGTON (NC) -

A priest member of the Na­ "tiomil Association of Social ,Workers, after a day of 'meetings with President John­ : 80n and Senate leaders,' has ex­ · pressed confidence that the : pending civil rights bill will be · 'passed . without major change.

-' Father William A. Steffen, di­ rector of charities, for the Dio. :eese of EI Paso, Texas" was' one 'of 200 members of the' NASW, including two other priests; here 'for a special two-day assembly civil rights. ..

"I took heart with what Pres­ Ident Johnson said, after quite warm talk. to us, that this bill 'will pass without major amend­ · ~ents if it takes all Summer," 'Father Steffen said.

Along with, Father Richard '!deiler, diocesan director of · charities in Amarillo, Tex., and - ~ather Thomas Reese, Wilming­ 'ton, Del.,charities driector, the ·delegates from every state but Alaska and Mississippi visited Senate offices on Capitol Hill ,before meeting with the Presi­ dent,

Major Roadblock

Father Steffen characterized a · social worker as one who "tries to remove roadblocks from the ·social and economic lives of our people." A major roadblock that faces Americans today is the problem of discrimination, he .aid. , "The psychological problem of -trying to hold a whole group of people in second class citizen­ -ship is enormous," Father Stef­ fen said.

"It is hard to say that this legislation will cure all our troubles. Neither did the Eman. cipation Proclamation cure all our troubles. But this bill is a start. It will establish the ma­ chinery for l' e m 0 v i n g road­ blocks that now stand in our ",ay." . . Fathers Steffen and lI,{eiler said some delegates here were surprised that two of the nine local chapters in Texas should choose Catholic priests to rep­ resent them at a professional eonference in Washington.

Too Many Catholic Colleges Endanger Qua~ity

ATLANTIC ClTY (NC)-There are getting to be too many Cath­ olic colleges in the country, the president of St. Louis Uni:versity told the National Catholic Edu­ cational Association's conven­ tion here.

Father Paul C. Reinert, S.J., whose 9,800 student university is the fourth largest U.S. Catho­ lic institution of higher educa­ tion, said the quality of Catholic higher education can be weak­ ened by random establishment of colleges. , "Catholic higher education," be said, "must restrict its growth

"There seems to be rather al­ arming evidence that excessive proliferation is already in pro­ cess both in the caSe of colleges exclusively for Religious and for coIlMes intended largely for lay students."
