In HolyWeekRites

With the revision of the Holy Week ceremonies, the modern movement to give the sacred liturgy back to the people has made great progress. It is hoped that this year with a more widespread understanding of Holy Week, Catholic people everywhere will share to a fuller degree in the graces which accompany the Church's official worship. For centuries, there has been an unfortunate separation between the Church's wor­ ship and the Church's people. The Mass, the Sacraments, the public prayers of the Church have long been looked upon as the exclusive work of the priest, with the people acting as obedi­ ent, but passive, spectators. Such a notion has lost sight of the very purpose of these acts of worship. Correctly viewed, these acts make up the public prayer offered to God by all the faith­ ful, not as solitary individuals, but as u nit e d members of Christ's society. The active role of the people is stressed throughout the new Turn to Page Seventeen

Don"t Give Chicks As Easter Gifts With Easter approaching, the .ational Catholic Society for Animal Welfare reminds parents of the "inappropriateness of giv­ Ing God's creature as toyS or pets in connection with the holy season of Easter." The society refers to the com­ mon practice of using baby ehicks, ducklings and rabbits as Easter gifts to children and notes "the average household does not have the specialized facilities necessary for their care and as a result many die. Still others die as a result of rough handling by children too. young to care for them properly." Lose Interest "Every year after Easter, humane societies are swamped with requests to pick up the Easter pets that have managed to survive; the children have lost interest in them or the paret:lts have tired of caring for the toys they bought with such enthusi­ asm before Easter. "Because of the suffering that results, some communities have outlawed the sale of baby ani­ mals as Easter pets. Every com­ munity should, but in the absence of laws, parents can cooperate by refusing to buy or give living things as Easter presents."

Pontiff R·ecalls Army Career VATICAN CITY (NC) - Ten thousand veterans of the Ber­ saglieri - crack Italian troops - saluted Pope' John with cheers and regimentai music when he appeared at his window overlooking St. Peter's square to lead the Angelus on the feast of the Annunciation. The martial bands played so long that the Pope held up his hands asking them to stop. "We must pray a little and play a little," he said. . The veterans were in mufti, but wearing their military honors and service medals. They were also sporting the Bersag­ lieri hallmark - their broad­ brimmed hats with irridescent feathers. The oldtimers had come to Rome from all over Italy for a conventi<ln. Pope John thanked them for their affectionate tribute. He re­ called that when he passed his army medical examination 62 years ago the medical board that checked him said, "Here's a good Bersagliere." The Pope added: "But Angelo Roncalli was con­ tent to be just a good infantry­ man. Served Wounded He recalled that after he had served for a year he wa:s pro­ moted to "no less than a ser­ geant." 'Then at the outbreak of World War I he was by now a priest, and he went back to serve the wounded, the sick and the dying as chaplain in army h<ls­ pitals. Urging the men to remain faithful t<l their Christian tradi­ tions, the Pope said: "What is important is to do hon05 to one­ self before God and before men."

"I~ the Old Testament we read: 'Thou hast loved justice and hated iniquity; therefore thy God hath annointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy neighbors.' "God made Negroes human beings.

Urban Renewal Role Chicago Prelate Says All-Faith Cooperation .Essential in Human Compa~sion Effort LOUISVILLE (NC)-Churches have an essential role in urban renewal-that of bringing "hu­ man compassion" to play on the process. This point has been made by Msgr. John Egan, director of the Chicago Archdiocesan Conserva­ tion Council, which acts as a liaison between the archdiocese and urban renewal officials, "Remembering human rights and dignity is one of urban re­ newal's major duties," - Msgr. Egan emphasized. "There must be a compassionate reaction to those displaced people. "Before people are asked to leave the homes of their choice there should be places for them to live without over-crowding other areas," he daclared. . Urban renewal must be a mat­ ter of active concern to an entire metropolitan area, the monsignor stressed. "It's not just a problem for the city fathers. What is go'­ ing to affect a certain section of a city will affect everyone," he said. Msgr. Egan said all churches must work together on urban renewal matters because "these are human problems, be they Protestant, Catholic or Jewish." "All of our churches are es­ sential to the reconstruction of our communities, for only through them is true human

Educators to Study Propos~ls For Sex Education in Schools CHICAGO (~"'C)-lllinois ed­ ucation officials have promised to give close study to, a proposal for a broad progJ'am of public ~hool sex education, adopted waanimously by the Chieago Parent-Teacher Association. The recommendation was ac­ eepted by 584 delegates repre­ senting 158,000 local P.TA memo bers at the quarterly meeting of the Chicago region of the Illi­ nois P-TA Congress. It urged the state P-TA to take steps at its meeting here to see to it that sex education is intro. duced into all Illinois public schools. The program envisaged by the Chicago P-TA would put major emphasis on tbe showing of sex education films to public school students. The movies would be shown to boys and girIs separ­ ately. Quick endorsement of the as­ .aciation's proposal came from State Rep. Peter J. Miller of Clticago, who heads the Illinois Commission on Sex Offenders, lI'eated by the Illinois General Aalembly in 1961.

For Missions DUBLIN (~"'C)-Of 376 priests ordained in Ireland during 1962, 180 were destined. for the IBis­ "ons.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-'Thurs., April 4, 1963

Lay Volunteers Have Unlimited Potential in Home Missions

fie described the P-TA's action as. "a far-reaching and timely m~ve to combat ignorance of sex among children. It will aid youngsters so they do not learn bad sex habits in alleys, barns, parks or automobiles - or from sex fiends who in many eases prey on young girls and boys." The commission is expected to recommend legislation pro. viding for a program of public school sex education.

NEW ORLEANS (NC)-There is "unlimited potential" in a lay apostolate in the home mission fields, the director of the Exten­ sion Lay Volunteer said here. Father John J. Sullivan of Chicago put it this way-: "It isn't just the shortage of Religious. The qualified lay apostolate fre­ quently is more effective be­ cause the traditional misrepre­ sentations concerning the Church has to do with priests and Sis­ ters." The lay missioners' director said in an interview that non. ,

The proposed .legislation would set up a sex education film ad­ visory board composed of repre· sentatives of religious groups, professions and other interested citizens. The principal of each school would invite parents to preliminary screenings of the sex eucation films. Every parent would have the right to permit or forbid his child to see a par. ticular film. Msgr. William E. McManus, Chicago archdiocesan school SJ,I­ perintendent, said of the P.TA's recommendation: "I think we can presume that the P-TA is sincerely concerned about the in­ creasing breakdown in public morals in the field of sex. Be­ -cause I don't know the exact films or othE7r materials the P.TA wants to use in its pro­ posed sex education program, I can't comment on the specifics of its program."

Highest Score Ever In Placement Tests

NEW ORLEANS (NC) - The highest score ever recorded by eighth graders from Catholic schools of the New Orleans arch. diocese was made by students who took the 1963 high school placement tests. The nearly 5,000 students from Cat hoi i c elementary schools showed an intelligent quotient of 105.9, compared with 104.6 for students who took the test a year earlier. Their composite score was 9.5, which indicates they were prepared for the fifth m~nth of the ninth grade of -$Chool on the basis of the national norm.

The Furniture Wonderlond

Catholics in the home mISSIons "respond most favorably to the attention paid them by these lay people. They're flattered and delighted." Cites Success Father Sullivan came here during a nationwide tour in which he is seeking lay volun­ teers to spend a year working in the U. S. home missions. He spoke at Loyola and Xavier Uni. versities here. Lay workers do "a first class job" and in some areas there has been a "major breakthrough" in convert work as a result of their efforts, Father Sullivan said. The ,Extension volunteers work as teachers, census takers and in religious education of adults, he explained. There also are nurses working in mission hospitals and beginning next August they will operate two mobile dispens.aries in Puerto Rico. Father Sullivan recently visited Puerto Rico. While the Extension volun­ teers are called to work one year in the home missions, they 'can volunteer for further service. A Sis t e r movement, PAVLA (Papal Volunteers for Latin America), provides lay mission. ers for work in Latin America on a three-year basis, he said.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., April 4, 1963

The Source of Unity

Thank You, But. ... The Boston Herald has given much and sympathetic coverage to the recent addresses of Cardinal Bea at Boston College and Harvard. It has expressed great pride in the position the Hub is taking in the ecumenical spirit that is sweeping through the, world. For those reasons, then, it would not be proper to leave uncorrected a statement made in a Boston Herald editorial Tuesday morning. The editorial stated: "A single church is an impossible vision. The spiritual comfort and elevation of all peopl,e cannot be confined in a single ritual of devotion." The writer meant well, of course. He is pleased' with the wonderful spirit of brotherly concern that impels men of all creeds to unite in social and cultu,ral and welfare concerns. But he is misinformed when he speaks of "a single ritual of devotion." That is precisely what the Catholic Church does not hold or intend.If anyone idea can be said to be dominating .the Vatican Council so far, it is the idea of flexibility, of adap­ tation, of incorporation into the devotional life of the Church of the customs and traditions and cultural conti­ butions of every locale and every race and every ethnic group. Certain concepts are common to every person of every place and time - the desi·re for union with God, the seeking after salvation, the assurance that there is forgiveness of offences, the desire to grow in holiness, the searching after answers to the ultimate questions of life and pain and death and the after-life. These are the common heritage of every human being. And the Church has been entrusted by God with the answers which she gives to men in the creed and sacra­ ments and the sweet yoke of the commandments of God. These tell men the answers, show men the way, give men the means of union with God. . But the Church recognizes - and always has --- that men differ in racial background, in cultural development, in social peculiarities, in differing cultural patterns. And she has always been ready to bend to these ac­ eidentals, to adopt what is helpful, to use what is useful. So long as there is no compromise of the plan of God for man's salvation, then matters·· of devotional stress, languages used, variances of ritual- all these are but . techniques that can and do change from time to time, from age to age, from country to country, from people to people. The watchword is not uniformity but, rather unity of Faith with flexibility of psychological expression. The psalmist has written: "How lovely are Thy tabernacles, 0 Lord". And how lovely, too, in the sight of the Lord is the spectacle of half a billion Catholics united in Faith and yet singing the praises of God in many languages, in many ceremonials, in many different settings of culture and custom. And this· is what the Church holds out to non-Catholics. So, thank you, Boston Herald, for your contributions to furthering the ,dialogue between Catholics and non-Cath­ olics. But ...

Unity Within Truth Robert Frost wrote: "Good fences 'make good neigh­ bors." ·It is heartening to experience, in the United States, the efforts by men of religion - not just clerics but lay people - to turn religious fences into the instruments for making good neighbors rather than into hostile barriers enclosing vast reservoirs of religious intolerance. The presence of such a distinguished religious figure as Cardinal Bea at Harvard is, a wonderful indication of the way the ecumenical movement is marching. Cardinal Bea said some significant things at Harvard, echoing the words of Pope John that Catholics must walk with their non-Catholic brothers as far along the road of social· and cultural and welfare projects as possible. But - and here is a fact that Cardinal Bea brought out and one that cannot be shunted aside or overlooked­ Catholics cannot compromise in areas of beliefs. They want unity - but their devotion to truth must be even greater than their desire for unity. The goal is unity within truth - not unity at the expense of truth. Charity demands that this idea be kept clea:rly in the forefront of ecumenical discussions.

By REV. ROBERT W. HOV.DA, Catholic University TODAY-Thursday in Passion Week. Sin and repentance, and the qualities of faith and love in repentance-these occupy our minds as we listen to God's Word and offer the holy Sacri­ fice today. The Old Testament First Reading gives us a beauti- . ful owning-up to sin, a prayer of repentance. The Gospel shows us not only the -prayer (in the ac­ tion of the sinner) but also its answer: "Thy faith has, saved thee; go in peace." TOMORROW-Friday in Pas­ sion Week. Both lessons speak of man's condemnation and God's vindication. Man's con­ demnation by his sin and be­ cause of his sin God's vindica­ tion because man has nowhere else to turn and because even in 'the plotting of Jesus' death (Gospel), even in this sin, men were plotting their own salva­ tion. Repentance and the huge grace-gift repentance brings is the happy side of our sinful condition. SATURDAY IN PASSION WEE K . Today's' Gospel, in which Jesus calmly prophesies HiS death, is an unusually long excerpt of His recorded teach­ ing. Unusually long for Mass in modern times. Yet the liturgy, the . Church's public worship, exists partly to bring us such teaching. "Yes, if only I am lifted up from the earth, I will attract all men to myself" (Gospel). For this reason we pray, in the Opening Prayer (Collect) of the Mass, that "taught by these sacred rites, the more graced (we) become, the more pleasing to your majesty (we) will be."

accounts of His suffering, in the Mass following today's proces­ sion and in the liturgy through­ out this week, we realize we are identified with Him in His suf­ fering as well as in His victory. And not only as sinners, whose failure to love has crucified the Saviour, but also as co-sufferers -as men and women whose suf­

fering acquires in Him a posi­ tive and a redemptive value. MONDAY IN HOLY WEEK. The unbelieving world sees only waste and weakness in the pas­ sion of Jesus and indeed in all worship of God. Isaia's fellow . citizens scoff (First Reading); Judas compla,ins (Gospel). Why this needless suffering? Why so much effort, time and money given to worship when man stands in need of so many things? Can history teach those . whom faith does not reach that without God and worship man is no longer man? TUESDAY IN HOLY WEEK. Perhaps "nothing portrays as vividly as this week's liturgy the fact· that Christianity is principally not a cause, nor 811 institution,' nor a code, nor • philosophy, but a Person. An­ other account of. the Passion, ill place of the Gospel today, again simply, starkly narrates the total self-offering of the Suffering Servant. The First Reading de­ scribes man's plot against Him. The hymns sing of His trust in the Father.

This program seeks to send both religious and lay people from the rest of the Catholic world to Latin America. In the United States the supe­ riors of religious orders - both priests a.nd nuns - and the bish­ ops of the various dioceses aq attempting to send 10 per cent of their present personnel bf' the end of the five years. The PavIa program is meant to aid the lay people in answering thill call. Education, Social- Action

The Commission also in tendll t<l strengthen the religious eda­ cation of the masses through a widespread CCD program and also by increasing the number of Catholic educational institu­ tions. A blueprint for needed Catho­ lic social action throughout South America has been devised as well as a master plan for in­ creasing the Catholic influence on the media' of mass communi­ cations, i.e. radio, television, newspapers, movies, magazines. Through all of this the Churcta hopes to increase the religious.. economic, educational and social standard of living for the people. . Bureaus Channel Help This Commission has further organized a central bureau for religious affairs for the Solitll American continent with head­ quarters in Bogota, Colombia. This is similar to the NCWC for the United States, but because South America is made up GC many different countries it iI difficult to have an effectiw continent-wide central office. The United States, Canada and the Catholic countries of Europe have established Latill American bureaus to channel as much help as possible from each country in the way of both manpower and money to Lathl America. Thus the recommenda­ tions of the Pontifical Commi9­ sion begun in 1958 are at present reaching an effectiveness seldom achieved in so short a time by any similar church enterprise.

This "mutual understanding" is therefore the "greatest result yet achieved" by the Council, ac­ cording to Eugene Cardinal Tis­ serant, Librarian' of the Holy Roman Church. Answering questions in an in­ terview he gave the Italian weekly magazine, Vita, the French-born Dean of the College of Cardinals said that "the first session of the Council without doubt enabled the non.Catholic observers to know the Church better. They were truly im­ pressed in assisting at the con­ gregations (Council sessions) and at seeing the freedom of discus­ sion." He continued: "But it should also be noted that many bishops who were not well a<;quainted with the repre­ sentatives of the non-Catholic churches were for their part im­ pressed on seeing the piety, the dignity and the zeal with which observers followed not only the Council la):Jors but also es­ pecially the daily various rites.It

Schools' Droppfng Primary Grades

life of Blessed Elizabeth Seton Marked by Many Sorrows

RICHMOND (NC) - The Richmond diocese's director of education said here that al­ though there is not a formal pol­ icy, there is -a "definite trend" for diocesan Catholic schools to drop primary grades. Father Richard J. Burke made the observation in commenting on a decision by St. Leo's ele­ mentary school in Fairfax' City, a heavily, populated northern Virginia suburb of Washington, D. C., to drop kindergarten and the first three grades by 1965. Father Walter F. Malloy, pas­ tor, said that the parish school will drop kindergarten and first grade in the next school year, the second grade in 1964 and the third grade in 1965. The teachers and space used for these grades will be shifted ,to double the capacity of grades four through eight, he said. The ,teaching staff is now 10 lay pell­ sons and 5 Sisters. . Stating that the school haa many more applicants than 14; has space and teachers, Father Malloy said: "We feel it is more necessary to have the upper grades than the lower grades if we can't have them all." , "The religious, moral and spill­ itual guidance available at', a parochial school has more effect ,on children between the ages of .10 and 13 than on' the younger ones," he said. , -. He said his school hoped ,to reinstate the dropped grades, bpt admitted that it, "might be a ,generation" before this could be done.

Cites Leadership Role of Women

By Father Jolul L. Thomas, S.J.

AsH. socioiol'7 Prot.-8t. Louis UnlversltF

OREGON CITY (l'.~) - The Catholic woman must "accept her position of leadership in promoting this world to be Christ's world," the president of the National Council of Catholic Women said here. Mrs. Joseph McCarthy of San Francisco declared that Catholic women "must become involvecl in the apostolate of Catholic ac­ tion." She spoke at the conven­ tion of the Portland Archdioc­ esan Council of Catholic women. "The Teal Christian woman cannot be content with shutting herself up within the four walls of her home, no matter how nobli! and self-sacrificing her home life may be," she stated. She will ~play as active a role iIi social and political life as her duties permit," Mrs. McCar£hy added, and will "temper the ac­ tions of the sociS! and political leaders of the day by exerting on their thinking a pressure ever gentle, ever firm, ever . spiritual, -ever practical."

"In one of your recent columns you used a' quotation from Sacred Scripture which I must confess I don~t under­ stand. It runs, "He who loves his life, loses it; and he who hates his life in this world, keeps it unto life ever­ lasting." I was taught to hate evil- not life.

With "The Goodness of People" as her topic, Katherine Burton, noted biographe't' and for 30 years woman's editor of The -Sign, national Catholic magazine, last Sunday addressed the Catholic Woman's Club of Fall River. It was a return engegement for the silver-haired author, who last spoke to the club some 10 years ago.

NEW ORLEANS (NC) - A minimum salary scale will go into effect next September for all teachers in Catholic elemen­ tary schools in the New Orleans archdiocese. ' Atchbishop John P. Cody, Apostolic Administrator of the archdiocese, announced also that the school system will be further strengthened by a pension plan now under study which is sched­ uled for adoption by September, 1963, or early 1964. The pension plan would apply to all lay employees of the arch­ diocese, he said. Must Be Met Msgr. Henry C. Bezou, archdi­ ocesan superintendent of schools, said the new minimum salary scale must be met by all elemen­ tary schools in the archdiocese. Louisiana certified teachers will receive a minimum salary of $3,000 annually. Certified teachers with a master's degree will receive a minimum o! $3,200, plus an annual increment of $100 a year for 10 years. The salary scale does not ap­ ply to high schools, Msgr. Bezotl said, because in most cases the high schools of the archdiocese pay salaries "equal to or in ex­ cess of salaries met l'>y publie scl:!ool boards."

Enjoys Fleming Healy's 'With Sunshiny Faces'

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen, D.D. Have you ever' noticed that in reading the New Testament you never find any reference to aiding the Missions? Our Blessed Lord never divided His Apostles into t..hose who would work in Jerusalem, or the "home missions," and those who would work ''to the ends of the earth." St. Paul said that he was "debtor to all men" whether'they were Jew or Greek, barbarian or free.

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy Fleming Healy, author of With Sunshiny Faces (Lip. pincott. $4.50), is a man. But he attended a convent school some time prior to 1920. To be more precise, it was an "academy for ladylike girls and r~fined small boys." Though a. small boy, he. was defi­ sephcould not learn subtraction mtely not 3 refmed .small until the nun demonstrated it by boy, nor does the e,vidence of a piece of paper. Having got his boo k, recounting his Joseph to admit that she had one academy days t h r 0 ugh the fourth grade indicate he be­ eame one. He resisted all the efforts of the nuns to make him such and small w~nder, given the na­ ,ture of those efforts as 'here detailed. The academy was in or near Cincin­ nati I take it. It old and old-fashioned. Its pupila were children of the well-to-do. In fact, young Healy's .acquaint­ ances were limited to ' the ,well­ to-do. HiS' was. a prosperous neighborhood, and he says, "In our little world there were, 11Q .poor people." , His contemporaries feU into one of three classifications. There were the genteel, (or would-be genteel) who attended the academy. Then there were the parochial school children; all .thought of as tough: . . , . War Unceasloe . And finally, there were the bruisers. in the public schools, girl bruisers as well as, boy bruisers Between the first cate­ gory and the last two, there ap­ pears to have been war Ull­ ceasing, ;with the.. non-academy youngsters the perpetual aggres­ sOl's. " . The academy PllPils repre­ ~nted two racial strains. The author, of qourse, ,was of ,¥ish e?ctraction. Healy's pa1,'en,ts were ~ormously proud ofbein.g Irish, . held that the Irish were richlY and invariably endowed with all the virtues, and denied that · , anyone Irish could. be anYthing i but smart. .... In time, however, Healy dis­ ~ covered that Irish blood 'did not i necessarily guarantee a 'nimble : brain, .and then he was re­ : luctantlY informed. 'that,' to be : wre, there' was that rare, sad i exception, the Irish thickhead. : The other strain was German, genially referred to ,,~ "''"'<> Dutch." The modest Irish con­ sidered the Germans CU oe uu"".­ ful, contrasted the latters' big­ otedness -with their own· patent broadrnindedness .andw aft e d' their way such further compli­ ments .as "tight," "narrow­ minded/' and "stupid!' Well, for mysterious reasons known only to himself,God eomehow' did not choose to con­ fer on everyone the privilege' of being Irish. I Mrs.:Lilly'sGar)),·, ,.: i The faculty was noC.ex.cl.u •i lively religious. 'There was~for :i example, large and eupeptic. Mrs. . Lilly, who taught gyamastics, calisthenics and dancing. Her working garb consisted of "'very full black bloomers which were fastered below the knee, black cotton stockings, and high­ laced black shoes with flat heels. This part of the costume was topped by a white middy blouse . with a black Windsor tie done in a bow. And all was topped by the rosy, athletic face of Mrs. ! ' Lilly and .a . great' inoundof : brown hair twisted into a bun •i on top and convered by a coarse .: bairnet." i Healy tells us' of many of his i classmates. But none is as in­ : teresting Joseph Hotz. who was a mathematical firebug. Jo-

v.:as

piece of paper in her hand, she proceeded to burn it, and there­ by elicited from him acknow­ ledgement that she then had no piece of paper in· her hand, and somehow so conveyed to him that one minus one is nothing. . When it came to larger figures, and Joseph could handle sub~ traction of such proportions only by burning the same number of pieces • paper as corresponded to the subtrahend, there arose a real danger of his destroying his home in the process of com­ pleting his homework. Neighborhood Denizens Healy does not confine him­ self to the academy, altho~h that is the center rJf his remi­ niscences. He discourses on the neighborhood a~ its .~enize~. Thus, he mentums MISS Allee Dienst, a maiden lady of 'consid­ erable years, who was .artistic ,and called her upstairs sitting room a studio. There. she p a i n ted. china. Plates, cups, saucers; etc.,' she decorated with daubs resem.b­ 'ling roses, and she considerately improved one d~iler ~t .by labelling each artIcle WIth the name ~f the genus of food or drink It was to be used for. Recalls Aunts Another neighbor was ~iss Ella Herbs~, who had a paSSIon for appea~mg as a R~d .Cross nurse (WhICh she certamly was not) in Armistice Day parades. For those she wore a n~se:s ~ress, army boots" a soldle.r s ,Jacket, ~d a ~ur~e ~'cap WIth the ~ed Cross mSlgn.la.. ., .

It was a great. eve n t when they ~ched m a Red Cross parade, and we went downtown to see the performance. We. were both hilarious and chagrmed to o~serve how ex­ tremely /unmilitary were the ranks of which the~ were ~embers. Far from bemg straIght, these rank;! resembled a bow drawn to Its tautest, or a sail before a stro.ng wl~d.

Why was this? Because the Church herself was mlsstonarJ'! There were no organizations, as there are today, which were dedicated to the so-called "foreien mis­ sions." No distinction was. ever made be­ tween a bishop and a missionary, a priest and a missionary, because to every priest and bishop Our Lord said: "Go ye into the worUL"

But today, so many in the Church say: "Oh; yes, the Congregation'for the Propaga­ tion of the Faith deals with the foreign missions"; or "The Holy Father has appointed his Society for the Propagation of the Faith to aid all missionaries in all. places." This gives them an excuSe to hoard all the goodies in their own pantry, saying: "Yes', Mission Sunday is coming. We must' then have a collection for the poor missions of Africa, Asia and other parts of the world." The kue and spiritual outlook Is rather this: 1.

Father Georges Tavard, A.A., a consultant to the council's Secretariat for Christian Unity, said in a talk at the University of Minnesota Newman Center that part of the work for reform has already been accomplished in the project on the liturgy. The Assumptionist priest, au­ thor of several works on Chri­ stian unity, said it is difficult for Catholics to think of the Church in terms of reform because re­ form is associated with Reform­ ation, which in turn is accocia­ ted with Luther and Calvin, "who are supposed to have been bad men." .

Catholic Men Convention WASHINGTON (NC) - Thirty-seven seminars and forums dealing with a variety of current topics will be packed into three days at the biennial National Council of Catholic Men convention in Atlantic City, N.J., starting Wednesday, April 24. The 20 C.S.C., staff editor for liturgy seminars and 17 forums will and sacramental theology of the deal with social justice, pub­ new Catholic Encyclopedia being lic morality,. dec e n c y in prepared at the Catholic Univer­ family life, communism, Sunday shopping, sex education in the family, moral problems in busi­ ness, convert work among Ne­ groes and similar problems. The convention also will fea­ ture five 15-minute presenta­ tions by Second Vatican Council consultants and experts at a gen­ eral session. The presentations will include the principal areas of renewal in the Church-litur­ gical, Biblical, catechetical, ecu­ menical and the social aposto­ late. Name SJJeakers The speakers will include Father Thomas F. StranskY, C.S.P., member of the Vatican Secretariat for Promoting 'Chris­ tian Unity; Father John Miller,

At Harvard Continued from Page One ''EewneDcial work peSts on this foundation, it livi!s on it, is nourished by it and orientated by it," he told some 150 scholars and special students taking part in the eolloquiwn. CaIldinal Bea :asserted that ,an "eol1menical attitude .",. con­ sists simply in the fact that ,we seriously accept the .New Testa­ ment teaching of Baptism and its conse~uences."

The Cardinal said that "the establishment of what we .have in common will make us rejoice in what we already share," and he stressed the importance of "an aldthentic love for the truth." This, l!le stated, "demands that our ·differenoes are not concealed or glQsselll over, but that 'they are b01dly ascertained and cli!arly stated." "Nevertheless," he said, '~a love for the truth refuses to rest contently with the clear delinea­ tian of differences; rather it tries to ,overcome the differences. ''BoJ,y Scripture is the com­ mon ground of all Christians," the Cardinal stated. "If all who be'lieve in Christ will Tead the Seri,p't;tJTes in prayerl'ul medita­ tion Rnd incorporate its 'teadhing in~ their· lives, they will not only be drawn closer to Ohrist, b~t inevitably closer to 'one an­ other." "It stands to reason;" the Cardinal continued, "that over­ coming the differences is not a !learch for compromises. Faith must not be confused with poli­ tics. Charity without truth will flicker but briefly. Love for the 1rlI'lil, the absolutely unbroken !fIve for the truth is for all of us simply fidelity to Christ and to His Church." The 'Cardinal declared that "Ilhe CiJurch is not the oontroller •.. ed' tbe truth, but its minister,

its servant." He added that the

Church "preaches the truth she bas reoeived from ,Christ, ex­ plains it, keeps it undefiled." Referring to interfaith theolo­ gical' dialogues, Cardinal Bea Alid these "will undoubtedly yielcigood results, bUt the ,w.ay will be long and hard."

New Encyclical Ctmtinuecl from Page One matsaoe:reclited "to the .Holy See. The' encyclical was mentioned for the first time in a telegram sent on Passion Sunday, March 31 by Pope John to Clemente Cardinal Micara, Vicar General of Rome. The Pontiff thanked the Cardinal and the Rome dio­ eeee for the warm weloome given him during his visit to 1ite Roman parish of San Basilio tIlat afternoon. Previously there had been rumors that such an 'encyclic.al w.as being planned, but no de­ tails could be obtained. The encyclical will be the eigWh is6ueGi by Pope John. In 1159 he issued four within five ~

sity of America, Washington, D.C.; Father Eugene H. Maly, president of American Catholic Biblical Association, and Father Shawn G. Sheehan, liturgist and professor of theology of St. John's Seminary, Bri~hton, Mass. Following the presentations, John A. O'Connor, associate edi­ tor of the Monitor, San .Fran­ ciscan archdiocesan newspaper, will interview the speakers to develop the significance of re­ newal in the various areas. Theme of the convention is "The Layman.in an Age of Chris· tian Renewal." At the traditional convention banquet four laymen will be honored· for distinguish­ ing themselves <in the 'soii!ritific and oultural'fields.

AtB. C. Continued from Page Ons' ~widespread and seliious ,c<llla­ . boratian in l' e a'l i st i c action against the plight of the suf­ fering, 'homeless ,and hungry." Such collaboration, the 81­ , year-old ,Cardinal continued, ,de­ mands, "wisdom and prudence;" as ,Willl ;as·the "proper ,guidance of -el;olesiasticalauthority." Hi! quoted ,as a '~suitable norm" .the advice of Pope .John: "Empha­ size what :tends to .unite men, and .acoompany every man .along his WlIY as.is lPossible without betraying .the ,demands .of justioe and ,tnuth." In introductory remarks, Rioh­ ard Cardinal ,Cushing :lauded the "extraordinary ,competenCi! «If Cardinal .Bea." The Aro~bishopofBoston 'said that the Cardinal "is helping ,us to present the changeless truths of the deposit of our F.aith in a manner 'suitable 'for ,the [com­ prehension of the modern world and theneby overcome ,one 'of the greatest barriers in the path of Ohristianunity." GooD 'Beginning CardimdBea said the degree he was accepting "somehow represents the many others that have or wouHi 'have been offered to me by other 'Catholic univer­ sities 'but which - with much regret - I coultl not accept 'be­ cause dfthe necessary shortness of my visit 'to ihe 'United States." On the subject of Christian unity, .Cardinal Bea ,said ·there has been .agood beginning in ,a difficult task "that ,will demand much ,patient love and per­ severing work." "Ttiis should not discoUl:age us," he stated. "All that the Lord has already done for unity, especially 'in 'these past few years, shoulil 'in!!pire 'us with con"fidence, 'the cortfidence 'that can move mountains:"

All this ,external participation, however, will1be .useless without intenior dev(ltion. Prayerful con­ sideration of ,the lllysteries of the Rassion 'and Resurrection, careful,stuqy,of the RolyWeek Missal, ,and most important,.a sincere confession, will ,prepare us for 'this ,holiest of .weeks.

'6bservmIce :Betins 'Sunila.y 'The HolyW:eek obser,vance begins with Palm Sunday, which has been .given 'the additional name of "Second SundaY of the Passion," :to center our ,attention on Chtisfs sufferings. The cere­ mony opens with a .prayer in which "the priest olesses the palms. lI'he ;palms .arethen dis­ tributed to the ,people, if this has not been'done beforehand. The Gospel describing Our Lord's triumphant eritl'Y illto Jerusalem follOWS, and nextt,thejoyful pro­ cession b~ins.

Now, centuries later, the Churoh ,-seeks to ,rec&pture that spirit .of IQyalt-y ,and homage to Christ the 'Savior. Hence, all the people ,are called on to "Illarch in pnoccssion :tlhr 0 u;g,h the church, :and if this jis .impossible theY. should at ileast ,join in the praise ,of 'CJhrist, 'mariifestedby the 'pnocession. After the procession, the ,priest sings a concludhlgprl!yer, .an!! then .a striking change takes place. ''llhe .priem J'emoves the joyful red vestments and puts on the somber vidletones, to be­ gin the l''!as~ .in ~ 'mmemoration of Our Lordl,s ,passion.

The most notable featul'e ·of this MaSs .is tthe solemn chanting or reading oIlthe;Gospel.account of 'the passion. ~uring :this reao­ ing, .we should:follow ·in our Missals, keeping .in mind 'that Christ's 'passion.was a 'triumph over sin 'through pain and suf­ fering. Palm 'Sunday 'has long been the "!forgotten ceremony" '0'£ Holy Week. With the new'em­ phasis on the meaning of this day, as many people as possible' should try t<> be present at the principal Mass .when 'the ·pro­ cession is to ,be ,held. And the palms blessed for· this .prooession should be kept.in;Catholic homes as reminders' of our pledge ·of loyalty to ,Cbnist our King. On Monda-y, Tuesday and Wcdnesday :of Holy Week, ;by daily attendanoe at Mass andre­ ception lif Holy Communion, and by meditation 'on .the events ,of Our Lord1s.passion, we should strive 'to prepare lor the climax of .HolyWeek. The next major ceremorry 'fff Holy Week occurs on Holy Thursday, the daY on which we commemorate the institution of the Holy Eucharist. The main lesson of this day is the unity df all 'Christians with Christ and with one another through chari­ ty. Fraternal Charity It .was on 'the first Holy Thurs­ day that Christ gave the 'com­ 'mandment of love, that His dis­ ciples love 'one 'another as ':He has lo:ved them. This love 'He demonStratei;l ;by washing the feet of His Apostles, indicating that willingness to serve rather than to be served is ·theproof of our love 'for ,others. But most important, on this day Christ gave us Himself in ·the 'EJucharist as the supreme bond df unity and love. In setme churches, the lesson df 'fraternal 'charity will be man­ irest by the touching cere­ mony df the washing 0.£ feet, which may be added after the gospel of the Mass. The priest, representiI\g ChriSt, washes the feet df twelve men, who stand for the twelve Apostles. In 'the bealttifulmlll'k which accom-

panies this rite, 'CJhrist's com­ mandment 'of love and oSt. Paul!. te.aching 'on charity 'are recalled. 1.'!<lwever, 'the 'strongest unity and love are 'achieved through the -actual offering 'of ~he Sacri­ fice of the Mass, 'and the rec~ tion 'of Roly Communion. Rol:r Oommunion Ibrings 'about a very real unity ·with 'Chris1;, 'for Christ actuaHycomes to 'dwell withi. us. 'Through ,Communion; also, our union with one another ill made evident, for we 'I'eceive the same spiritual food from the same :altar. :unifly ,anft iCharity In the Euchatist, Christ gave His ,own ,Body and Blood as a symbol o'f the unity. and chariW which shOUld 'be the distinguish­ ing mark of 'all ehristians. 0a this day, we Should :pray 'fflt'­ vently 'that ,the love OfChrlst and of our fellow men 'so beauti­ fully expressed in this ceremony. will permeate our lives through­ olit the entire year. 1\fter Mass on HolY Thursday. the 'Blessed -Sacrament :is carried in solemn procession 'to the r.e­ positorY,where l't 'will remai.n until ,the ,tlistribution df Com­ munion on ,Good 'Friday.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., April 4, 1963

Says Non-Catholic Hazlitt Spoke Wi~h Saints, Seers By Most Rev. Robert J. Dwyer, D.. D. Bisliop of Reno

It is very largely a simple matter of statistics. Using an impeccable set of figures, as the Rev~ Thomas Malthus triumphantly demonstrated, it is possible to prove that each one of us, 20 generations back, had exactly 1,048,576

forebears. And if this be true, as can be proved mathematically, then the wonder is how in times past so many people managed to live together on the earth. For "the earth is manifestly m u c hoI d e r, hum anI y spe~king, than a paltry 20 generations. Malthus, of course, was primarily interested in the other direction, how many · "') descendents h IS contemporaries would have. His " figures were ex c e e din g I y alarming. By now the world should be an extremely crowded and uncomfortable place, with less than a square yard to accommodate every man, woman an_" child. And more than that, the world's food supply should long ago have been eaten up, so that we today should all be driven to the rather grim necessity of, feeding on one another - tooth and toenail - or of politely starving to death. Not that the Rev. Mr. Malthus relished the prospect. He was a most respectable English person of the establishment, and but for the repercussions of his unfortunate book, might have advanced even as far as the Bench of Bishops. His purpose, act u a 11 y, in launching his theory of population growth - we today call it "population • explosion" - was commendably.orthodox and conservative. He viewed with dread and horror the increase of the lower classes and their encroachment, economic and physical, upon the gentle and wellborn. The're was only one way to stop this growth, he foretold, and that was the promotion of misery and vice among the poor. Text of Diehards 'Yes, it is of plain record that this good clergyman, rejoicing in the name of Christian, set down in blunt terms this recipe for keeping the world's population in hand. Left to themselves, given the slightest encouragement, the poor would multiply

putation. Therefore, any encouragement offered them, any amelioration of their lot, was folly, nay, crimi. nal folly. Hence it was that at the time of 'its publication Thomas Mal­ thus's book became the text of all the diehards and enemies of the mildest of liberal programs. It seems, actually, that the original impetus for the Malthu­ sion doctrine came from one Wallace, a Scottish philosopher, and that Malthus himself was led ·to publication only because he had been prevailed upon to lend his voice to the support of the faltering conservative cause. Little did he suspect, then or later, what fodder would be made of his harvest. :It stands on record, for what it is worth, that the clearest answer to the claims of Malthus, , and the boldest confrontation of his pessimism, came from that strange and protean character, William Hazlitt. With the vigor of common­ sense he ref ute d Malthus's claims to statistical integrity by

the simple device of pointing out the absurdity contained in the comput"ation of ancestry. He doubted not that the world's population would tre­ mendously increase in the cen­ tury ahead (he was writing in 1825), but neither did he doubt that human ingenuity would tend to close thl~ gap between population and food supply. On the moral issue, Hazlitt met Malthus fairly and squarely.
