Pope Paul VI hailed the ca· reer of a soldier as "a voca tion of service." Speaking
opments concerning the produc tion code of the Motion Picture Association - inclUding the granting of code approval to a film involving partial nudity "should be of concern to all of us." "I do not believe that all nu dity is per se obscene," he said, nor do we maintain that nudity' may not have an artistic func tion in some high-quality films. Nevertheless I am not convinced' that nudity is ever actually nec essary for artistic effect in mo tion pictures." "If recent trends in the mo tion picture medium are al lowed by you to continue a downward spiral of irresponsi bility," Msgr. Little told the movie executives, "the invest ment which you have made in your name and in your film en terprise will be ultimately wasted and destroyed."

MODEST REMEMBER THE POOR: Pope Paul spoke to nearly 10,000 people at St. Francis Village, a housing development built by Pope Pius XII in 1948 for people without shelter. Despite modest circumstances, the vil lagers had collected a sum to- give to the poor and presented a tank of tropical fish and other gifts to their visiting Pontiff. NC Photo.
African Newspaper Marks Anniversary CAPE COAST (NC) - The Standard, interdiocesan news paper of Ghana, is now 26 years old. Father Martin T. Peters, S.M.A., a Dutch priest, its editor, says that originally it started as a mimeographed monthly. As he said with a smile, "They got a typewriter and a blessing from the bishops." In .the beginning it was called ''The Leader," and as it devel oped, the editors changed it into a printed paper, when they found they had enough circula tion to support the cost. Then in 1944, the name wa~ changed to the Standard.
Now...Eat better and faster with FALSE TEETH
in French to 200 Belgian soldiers, the Pope stated: ~he vocation of the soldier, as everyone knows, is by defi nition a vocation of service. And the centurion of the Gospel proves that there is no incom patibility between the require ments of military discipline and those of the faith, between the ideal of the soldier and that' of the believer. "To realize the harmonious synthesis of this double ideal must be the ambition of the Christian who is called-by per sonal choice or 'by obedience to law-to put on a uniform and consecrate a part of his energies to military activities." Debate The Pope did not refer to the claims of conscientious objec tors, but his talk came in the wake of a debate on the subject in Italy. Statements supporting these claims made by some priests in the Florence archdio cese recently brought a rebuke from Ermenegildo Cardinal Flo rit of Florence. After speaking to the troops the Pope went to a public audi ence in St. Peter's basilica at tended by thousands of visitors. From Easter afternoon until he received the Belgian soldiers the Pope had granted no audiences. It was understood that he had been addvised to rest for a few days after a busy Lenten sched ule and I1n even busier Holy Week.

Urges Teens Live Catholic
Faith in Every Action By Joseph T. McGloin, S.J. All too often, Catholics, even teen type Catholics, seem to get the idea that this Catholic life isn't a "Hfe" at all, but consists largely in avoiding a number of activi ties which are more or less arbitrarily forbidden. Some of these come under the Ten with the fact that our Commandments, and some of start Catholic faith is to be lived posi them apparently don't. If tively, then even our attitude you refrain from stealing towards sin can become more ac large amounts, they "reason," and from missing Mass on Sun days and eating meat on Fridays and a few things like that, you have it made. And if married p e 0 pIe don't practice artifi 'cial birth-con trol or get di vorced and re marry, or kill, the i r spouse, then they 'have it made. Now there aren't many Catholics quite that far wrong, but there are all too many witb a "Don't" attitude: Don't do the don't's and you get a "reward" of some sort. And there are a lot of otbers who, while their attitude is somewhat more positive than this, still aren't thinking quite straight. These types figure that their Catholic faith is positive, not just negative. Negative Prohibitions But they figure, too, that they are doing all they "should" by passively "attending" Sunday Mass, or maybe even an occa sional extra Mass on week-days, by saying their morning and evening prayers, by confession now and then, and receiving Holy Communion once a week. Now, these people are doing well indeed, if they do this much, and they'll undoubtedly get the grace (which is an enlighten ment of some sort) to improve on their ideas as time goes on. The fact is, though, that your Catholic faith does not consist either in negative prohibitions, nor even solely in periodic acts whereby we pray or receive the sacraments. Full-Time Catholic No, your Catholic faith is to be lived, and this means that you are a Catholic not just when you pray or receive one of the sacraments, but in the perform ance of your every action. If you are not a Catholic when you study, you are not a good Cath olic. If you are not one when you work, or when you play, or when you listen to the radio or watch TV, then you are not really living as a Catholic. You are supposed to. be a full time Catholic-all the time--a fact which may have some con nection, too, with Christ's telling you to "pray always." But that's not thp. main point of this particular column. Just now, let's talk about sin. If we
Archdiocesan Board Rotates Members ATLANTA (NC)-Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan has adopted a plan for rotating membership on the Atlanta archdiocesan boaTd of consultors which he said, "will involve every arch diocesan priest, directly or in directly, in the progress of the Church in Northern Georgia." The rotation will be accom plished through a new "consult ative ballot" method whereby each archdiocesan priest will express his personal choice for board membership.

The trouble is that when we think of sin, even when 'l.ve study moral theology, we are apt to go by the mistaken idea that to the right of a line lies good, on the left evil, and that if we only, keep ever so slightly to the, right, everything will be just dandy and we will be lovely Christians indeed. Negative Thinkers Now it's true that we have to know right from wrong, but not because of any arbitrary line drawing. We want to know right from wrong so as to understand what things will frustrate our purpose and what things will help it. Once we understand a little bit about our purpose, however, we won't think so much of right or wrong ("How far can I go?") as we will of better or best ("What more can I do to know, love and serve this wonderful God?") If you've ever really bothered to look at the commandments, you'll find that they aren't as negative as you imagined. The first four are even stated posi tively, and you could word the others positively, too: Fifth: Love your neighbor as yourself. Sixth and Ninth: Show your love for God by using the gift of sex, often so closely associ ated with human love, according to faith and right reason. Sev enth and Tenth: Respect the natural right of property. Eighth: Deal as honestly with others as you would with God. But the concept of sin can get' loused up indeed in the mind of the negative "thinker." He gets discouraged because he's imma ture enough to swallow all the propaganda around him and imagine that he's the only one even trying to stay out of sin, when the actual fact is that most people are trying awfully bard to do so. Sin Unreasonable There are, then, temptations to be overcome. But sin lies in giving in to temptation, and not in being subjected to it. Sin consists in turning away from God, offending Him, and not in feeling like doing so. Sin is a complete frustration of our na ture, of the only reason for which we were created. It is ugly, and unreasonable, an act of incredible stupidity. And it could cause us to end up eter nally frustrated.
Milling Machine Gift For Ecuador Poor ASHEVILLE (NC) - Poor peasants in a rural diocese in Ecuador will soon be enjoying an unexpected windfall thanks to a North Carolina Catholic priest and a non-Catholic business exe cutive. A $100,000 flour milling ma chine is now being crated for delivery to Bishop Candido Rada of Guaranda, Eucador, as a "little gift" from the Earle Chesterfield Mills. The gift idea has been worked out by John Earle, company president, and Father John A. Brown of this North Carolina community. Based on U. S. con sumption rates, the machine can provide flour to feed 180,000 people a year.

VATICAN CITY (NC)-Pope Paul VI, speaking on Easter to all Catholics, all Christians and all men of good will, said that optimism is the message of the Resurrection. "Optimism will prevail," the Pope declared. The Pope also made what was generally regarded as a veiled appeal for an end to the fighting in Vietnam. He said: "May the day come on which discords among peoples will be resolved, not with the force of arms but rather in the light of reasonable negotiations. And let every war and guerilla operation give way to constructive collab oration which is mutual and fraternal.

Citing newspaper headlines of war, racial strife and widespread crime, the archbishop said be hind them stand "the human de cisions which reject the peace of God, the brotherhood of man, the divine grace to resist temp tation." For Catholics, he declared, it Is not enough "to survive the moral chaos about us because we share with our neighbor the so cial responsibility of restoring all things in Christ." "Our aim" he said "must be to bring ev~ry segme'nt of soci ety under the enriching influ ence of the teachings of Christ." Equal Opportunity To do this, Archbishop Boiand said, requires "that we should openly acknowledge and honest ly respect the right of all, which embraces not only political equality for the minorities, but also embraces fair economic and educational 0.l?portunities." "In particular, we must not forget that effective exercise of man's rights depends in the final analysis on whether or not he has been given an equal oppor tunity to develop his nati ve skills and talents and to secure gainful and suitable employ ment on his own merits and without regard to the color of his skin," the prelate said.

Passion Narratives Acted in Liturgy GWELO (NC) - The Gospel narratives for Holy Thursday, Good Friday and the Easter Vi gil were enacted instead of simply being read at the liturgi cal services in a Catholic church here in Rhodesia. Some 50 students acted out the Gospels as congregations of 1,000 Africans watched the story of Christ's Passion unfold. Thus at the Holy Thursday Mass of the Lord's Supper, the priest celebrant began the Li turgy of the Word as usual, but at the time of the Gospel actors came out and enacted the wash ing of the feet. The Passion narrative of St. John was acted 6ut on Good Friday. And at the Easter Vigil Mass, the con gregation watched "Mary Mag dalene and the other Mary" go to the tomb and learn that "He baa risen."

"In our preoccupation with our own needs and concerns, we have neglected to do what had to be done," said Rabbi Marc Ta"--~aum. The director of interreligious affairs for the American Jewish Committee, spoke at tl}e Nation al Council of Catholic Women's Institute for Leaders held at the College of New Rochelle. The institute, second in a series of seven in various sectiol1s of the country, was entitled "Ecumeni cal Encounters." It placed speci al emphasis on ecumenism and how it can be carried on at the community level. "If the whole concept of the People of God is to become more than a fancy term," the rabbi said, "the people them selves must pick up this ecu menical package and move it into their daily lives." He ad vised an increase in ordinary human contacts and deplored the "five o'clock iron curtain" we are still hiding behind while we wave from across the street and pretend we know each other."
Calls for Dialogue Amonq Catholics MADRID (NC) - Auxiliary Bishop Jose Guerra Campos of Madrid has called for a dialoque between traditionalist and liberal Catholics to avert what has been called the "great danger of a civ" war within the Church" in Spain. The director of the official weekly El Espanol, Angel Rui?: Ayucar, had claimed such a danger exists and denounced what he called leftist political tendencies among some mem bers of Spain's Catholic Action organization. In a letter to the director, Bishop Guerra said a "dialoque of truth" among Catholics will end much of the conflict be tween groups of opposing out looks.

Blindness He said parents of parochial school children should work for the betterment of public schools, and he criticized the "blindness" of those parents who maintain they get nothing in return for their tax dollars. "Irrespective of whether a more just distribution of tax funds for education should be m~de, it is untrue to say that school taxes do not reap bene fits for us all," he said. "Certain ly the parents of a child in pa rochial school is benefited by the fact that his neighbor's child in a public school is being edu cated. Certainly the person who, in the interests of parochial school children, speaks of the need to benefit 'all' children, should not close his eyes to the needs of those other children who are in the public schools."

Still A Problem
C D
About a decade ago the late Pope Pius XII pointed out that a great problem of the future, perhaps the greatest,
would be the problem of how to use leisure.
He saw clearly that more people were going to have
more time as automation increased, work hours decreased,
and people began enjoying a longer life-span.
The problem is still facing men. It is well to have more free time-but unless this is used well then it becomes only a cause of boredom, at the very least. Cardinal Cicognani, papal secretary of state, in a letter written in the name of Pope Paul to the Union of Catholic
Organization in France, has called on Catholics to develop
the wholesome and profitable aspects of the use of leisure in the modern world. The Oardinal has written: "Following profound changes which have occurred in the structure of society in the
course of the centuries, the Church as such no longer has
.to fulfill the role which was hers in various ages of inspiring and preparing for recreation. But the Church now as in the past exhorts her sons, whether individually or united in groups, to act in accordance with the grave duty which is incumbent on them in this field."
Leisure can be used for wholesome recreation which rebuilds the spirit, for creative activity which enlarges the spirit, for works aimed at the betterment of individuals and society. Time is a precious commodity. It would be a shame to .have many persons fritter it away idly and to no purpose.
India and the Church Very often a great event takes place in history but men must wait years and even centuries to assess it as great, to see against the backdrop of time that this was significant in the current of world happenings. Happily, there are some instances when this is not necessary, when the importance and significance of an action has an immediate impact that is noticeable right away. Such an event makes a change quickly and dramatic ally. Such is the case of the Vatican Council and the visit of Pope Paul on India. Before the Council the Church in India was little known and less esteemed outside the circle of Christians. It simply did not have a strong impact on the vast numbers of the Indian people. Indian Bishops at the. Council made the point, for themselves and their people as well as for Catholics of other areas of the world, that the Church must make new and more fundamental efforts in the economic and social fields. As one Archbishop said, "The common people cannot have a spiritual life, unless first of all they are provided at least a human life, so that they may not feel minimized in human dignity. In India it is not a question of affluence or super fluity or recreation, but a question of life and death." The Church is now more outspoken both in its attempts to aid the Indian people in social and economic ways and in its appreciation of all the good that is in Hinduism. . The visit of Pope Paul was of incalculable value in· bringing the Church before the eyes of the Indian people. The good will and assistance shown by non-Christians to make both the Eucharistic Congress and the Pope's visit a success cannot be overestimated. Without such aid both could have boomeranged with disastrous consequences for the Church. And when the Indian people saw the Pope they were won by him. They were touched by his arrival not as a Western prince but as a pilgrim, not as a world leader coming in a condescending way but as a holy man, cloaked in simplicity and humility, with the words of many of their great spiritual leaders on his lips and in his heart. It is not uncommon nOw for Indian newspapers to print much about the Church and it has been said that paying tribute to the Church for its humanitarian and educational activities is becoming almost a craze now with officials. Yes, this age is witnessing great events.

By Msgr. George G. Higgins (Director, Social Action Dept., N.C.W.C.) Pope Paul VI, in a recent address on the internal unity of the Church, chided those Catholics who "can contribute to the Catholic life nothing more than a bitter, disruptive and systematic criticism." He was at pains to distinguish between this type of sterile course, but never before, to my criticism and the "process knowledge, has anyone stated of purification and of renew i. quite so scathingly and, I al which now stirs and re might add, so humorlessly.
generates the Church and which the Church is the first to ask for and promote." During the past few years American Cath olics have pub lished a whole ream of artic
lr and books which, by and large, fall with in this second c~'~gory of construc tive criticism criticism aimed d promoting tt - aggiornamento so providen tially initiated by Po~- ~ T')hn XXIII. On the other hand, it must be said, in all honc:ty, that some of the r.riticism currently
being voiced by Cat"~lic writers in this 'ntry is unbo.lanced, not to say bitter ""d disruptive. -- --fing's Book I would include in the latter category certain p:rtions of Ed ward M. Keating's recent hook, The Scandal of Silence. Mr. Keating, -ditor of Rampart~ is undoubtedly a very sincere Catholic layman. M 0 reo v e :r much of what he ~ays in his "powerful critique of the Cath olic Church in AmeriC'''" is in the nature of constructive crit icism. Unfortunately, however, his angry ~-'1 undisciplined rheto ric frequently gets the better of him and prompts him to in dulge' a number of breath taking and highly c r i tic a I g 'lizati0-s ~""l1t American Catholicism which, to put a as charitably as possible, are open t.} serious question. A few examples, out of many that could be cited, will suffice t.-· illustrate the point. Pages 137-139. Mr. Keating, who is almost always angry, furiously blames most of the re-" or alleged weaknesses' of A . -on Catholicism on "the dominan"~ of the T~;~h." That's a familiar theme, of
stolic Catholics. The growth aI.
the CCD in this diocese in the last few years Is an indicatklD of the change in attitude c0n cerning continuing religi01ll education, and especially in «me
of its programs, the Adult Re
ligious Discussion Groups. Some parishes have institut ed this approach to religio. education, finding that resultll are very satisfying in them creased confidence of all thOse
participating, that they do kno-, do understand and do comm.. nieate their beliefs. Mr. Elmer Cunningham, ~ oeesan Chairman of DiscussiOll Groups, and himself a conveJll to the Faith, summed it up nicely when he said, "The Religious Discussion Club has long since proved its usefulness in forming articulate, apostolie Catholics.

NEW YORK (NO)---'l'he "Great Society" which Pres ident Johnson has asked the nation to seek must be built on the philosophy that, Ameri eans are a religiou's people, Catholic educators heard here. "We must not be afraid to think and speak and act ,like a religious people," said Auxiliary Bishop John S. Spence of Wash ington.

He said this concept has deep roots in the '0. S~ national heritage; noting the Supreme Court's 1952' ob , servation that "we are' a religi 'ous people whose institutions presuppose a Supreme Being." Religious People "Both as Americans and as Catholics, we accord to every citizen the right and obligation to follow the dictates of his own conscience, provided he has done his best to have it Inform ed by reason and,' God willing, even by faith ••• Yet as be tween religion and no religion as a basic philosophy for Amer ica, there can be no question on where our country stands," he said.

Says Abandoning Catholic Schools 'Greatest Folly'
WASHINGTON (NC) - The House of Representatives has overwhelmingly approved a $50,000 appropriatieD for an in vestigation of the Ku Klux Klan by the Un-American Activities Committee. The move for a probe of the Klan was sparked by an appeal by President Johnson after the slaying in Alabama last month of civil rights worker Mrs. Viola Liuzzo. Four men whom the FB! identified as Klan members were arrested and charged with the killing. Scattered opposition w as 'Voiced in the House by both J::orthern liberals and southeI"ll. eonsetvatives. Some liberals ar gued that the probe should be conducted by the House Judi ciary Committee rather than the Un-American Activities Com mittee. Conservatives urged that ft be broadened to include civiJI :right.s groups as well as the Klan.

"The present is no time for talk of scuttling the ship when from the masthead comes the ery, 'land ho,''' said the prelate. He noted that criticism of Catholic schools traditionally has come from sources outside the Church, but 'in recent years "members of the family" have been casting doubt on the role of the schools and their accom plishments. "To suggest abandonment of the project at this point in our his tory, either because we have not fully emerged from our chrysalis or because we have not managed to reach all our published goals or because we have not solved the question of. financing this greatest venture in private en terprise that the world has known, would surpass the great est conceivable folly," he said. Cracks in Monolith The nation, he said is coming dose):" to a sympathetic under standing of the motives for Catholic schools. America "is beginning to see t!racks in the educational mon lith," he declared.

Plan Belated Honor ", For Pioneer Bishop QUEBEC (NC) - A statue of Francois de Montmorency-Laval, first bishop of Quebec and founder of the Grand Seminary here, soon will be installed in a niche in the facade of the Pro "incial Parliament building here, 80 years after it originally was planned., The niche was reserved for the statue in 1885, but for a va riety of reasons the plan never was carried through. Quebec Premier Jean LeSage said the government commissioned Emile Brunet, Canadian sculptor, to make the statue, which now has been completed in Paris and will be installed ·in a few months. Bishop Laval, the "father" of the Church' in Canada, served from 1658 to 1688 For a time his jurisdictioll' covered all of Canada and much of the United States.

Yet, in the isolated village Of Schrocken, high in a secluded valley of the Vorarlberg Alps fl'f Austria, the medieval Rosary was to survive into the 20th century and serve as the inspi ration for the renewal of the Rosary in the 1960's.

lagers had vowed te pra'y the Rosary together weekly if their valley was spared the ravages of one of the plagues that were sweeping Europe in those times. True to this promise, their de lilc'endants still gather together on Sundays to recite the Rosary the way it was once prayed throughout Western Christen dom. In 1961, the curious Schrocken Rosary was brought to, the at tention of a group of Chicago laymen who recognized it as a possible antidote for the waning interest in the contemporary short Rosary. They reasoned that 'the' special little thoughts for , e,ach Hail Mary of the medieval Rosary would offer the intel lectual variety that the short form lacks. To add more autho rity to the medieval Rosary form (many of its thoughts were based on legend) they revised the meditations ao that each would be a direct quotation from the scriptural 3tory of each Mystery.

He praised President Johnson and Congress for adoption of the law, but told the opening session td the 62nd annual meeting td the national Catholic Educational Association: "Above all, I thank the people of the United States because they were responsible for hav ing the Senate and the CongreSl respond to our plea against dis erimination." The cardinal said he "under lItood some people do not like the bill," but he added that op ponents of parochial pupils' in clusion would make Catholic school children into "second class citizens." The $1.3 billion law signed Ie eently by President Johnson win launch a massive program aimed chiefly at bolstering the educa tion of children of low-income families. .Needy children attend ing parochial and other private schools will share certain ser vices and facilities extended to them by local public school dis tricts. President Johnson sent a greeting to the convention whose keynote speaker was the Chief Executive's Commissioner of Education, Francis Keppel. Mr. Johnson's greeting, read to the assembly by Archbishop John P. Cody of New Orleans, called this a "bright moment in the history of American educa tion." "This year," he said, "the American people have through their government faced the ma jor challenge of our day.

it solved its problems - shou:d guide the Church in its desire for renewal in order to keep intact the deeper values and leave aside what is accidental.
This is an undertaking which requires adaptability and imag inative thought. With promising creativeness the Church in Latin America looks toward the future, observing the signs of the times in order to discover the direction which Providence wishes to give to her development. Her leaders have already set about the posi tive tasks they must accomplish in the spirit of the Ecumenical Council. Great Resurgence Thus far we have dwelt on the past. Now we ask where the Church stands in the rapidly changing Latin American soci ety of today. Weare looking for no litany of sweet nothings but, rather, a down-to-earth apprais al of where both Church and society are directed. We are provided with what we are searching for by an able study from the pen of Father Renato Poblete, a Chilean Jesuit well prepared to meet this need. Father Poblete specialized in so ciology at Fordham University and on returning to Chile be came the director of the Centro Bellarmino. He has contributed in a major degree to the socio economic study of a group of specialists who have worked with Father Roger Vekemans; S.J., of Belgium, a project which provides a continental pattern for Churchmen and technicians called upon to meet the rapid social evolution of our times. Old Accepts New To anyone who has been in terested in Latin America, it is obvious that the Church was present in the malr..ing of the cul ture of our continent. The Church was incarnated in almost all human activities. Since the first years of colonial times, the priests not only fostered the cultural aspect of life, with schools for the Spaniards and for the children of the Indian chiefs, but they also built canais for irrigation, brought from Europe new seeds for better crops, and taught craft skills to the people.
In Chile, for example, the

From "The Church in the New Latin America" Edited by Joh.n J. Considine, M.M. The disaffection of the intelligentsia was a significa~t problem confronting the Church during the post-indepen dence period. Although some hostility existed befor~ independence, during the Revolutionary period the intel lectuals turned more often is prepared to look at to the political philosophy of Church reality without fear. The heri St. Thomas Aquinas than to tage of the past - the typically the contractual theories of Latin American way in which the Philosophes for justification of . separation from Spain. Following inde pendence, how ever, they seldom demon
strated a con tinuity of Cath olic thought in their political and social orienta . tion. Ins tea d sought guidance in various ma terialistic phil osophies-for example, the util itarianism of Jeremy Bentham pl'ofoundly influenced intellec tuals in Argentina, Brazil, ChHe and Mexico during the early national period. Subsequently, the Cientificos of Mexico and Guatemala, as well as intellectuals in Brazil and various other nations, sought solutions to their national problems in the positivism of Auguste Comte. Absence of Social Program Simultaneously, . during the post-independence period, ~ h e church lost its identity as the champion of social justice. Al though the Church's concern with social questions in Latin America may seem to be of re cent origin, missionaries in San to Domingo, as early as 1510, defended the rights of the Indians. Much of the social legislation during the conquest, ranging from the abolition of Indian slavery to the payment of just wages, resulted from demands of missionaries and bishops such as Bartolome de las Casas. Al though the clergy seemed less committed to social questions during the waning days of the colonial period, Hidalgo's revo lution in 1810 was perhaps more social than political in character. Following the alliance with the conservatives during the post-independence period, how ever, the hierarchy often regard ed social reform as part of a liberal plot to despoil the Church. Even in those nations where the Church was secure the hierarchy played no role in the quest for social reform.

Lists' Important Qualities Of Perspective Spouses
Professor Stre~ses Need oil U~o",J~t:"sal Religious Freedom St(lJfr~~(f;r.lt
By John J. Kane, Ph.D. "My daughter is dating a Gatholic boy of fine morals. But she is taller than he and she is most self-conscious of it. On dates she always wears low heels. They are quite serious and have been going steady for four months. ][ am afraid that after marriage bands and wives. The more they she will be awfully disgusted have in common socially and if she cannot wear proper at religiously the more they can tire on suitable occasions. I share common interests and pur know this shouldn't matter but it does." No doubt some readers will consider t his problem down right hilarious. It isnt. Years 2g0, while in C 0 11 e g e, the Dean persuaded me to get a stu dent to take a blind date to a dance at a neigh boring Catholic college. Aft e r practically be ing refused by the entire class, I persuaded a small, timid boy to do so. His date was over six feet. He was about five feet two. At the sight of her he seemed to shrink and become even smaller. The result was a miser able experience for both. In American society the ideal male , at least so far as appear ances go, is supposed to be tall, all being near six feet or more. But whatever his height, the girl is always supposed to be less tall. Problem for Both Furthermore, the folklore has some unkind things to say about a short man. Smallness in stat ure is supposed to mean small ness in everything. This is pat ently absurd, but the short fel low in our society does have a problem. So does the rather tall girl. The problem you present is real enough, and just how seri ous it is depends on how serious ly your daughter views it. Ob viously, it is a cause of embar rassment to her, else she would not wear low heels. But if she really takes a dim view of her boyfriend's height, why continue to go with him? So I am inclined to believe she sees some of the fine qualities in him that you describe. He apparently does not think differences in stature are impor tant. Yet a male can suffer just as much emberrassment with a tall girl that a girl can with a short man. If this is the case, it is a point toward his maturity. Moral Qualities One of the important things to remember about marriage is that qualities which make a good date are not identical with those that make for a good mate. The Adonis may create a sensation on the beach and devastation in marriage. Ability to do the Frug and Watusi are real assets on a ballroom floor but I never heard of a married couple who spent their lives on one. There are certain qualities parents should teach their chil dren to look for in future hus-
Hindu Sage Hits
Birth Control
COCHIN (NC) - One of In dia's leading Hindu laymen has criicized his government's birth program declaring that he sees in it "a defeat of spiritual and ethical values." Acharya Vinobha Bhave, a disciple of Mahatma Ghandhi and founder of the Bhoodan (land gift) movement, said that birth control is a "negation" of the Hindu way of life. "My objection to family planning," he declared, "is more on the spiritual plane, rather than on social, political or economic."
suits, the greater the chances for a happy marriage. Certainly the moral qualities of the prospective spous.e are most important. A boy who gives evidence of a good character, a sense of responsibility and ma turity is likely to make a good husband and father. Physical Attraction Of course, physical appear ance cannot be entirely over looked. Unless a couple can feel some sense of physical attraction toward each other, marriage is out. But this doesn't mean that a boy has to combine the phys ical appearance, wit and suavity of a motion picture star. Neither does a girl have to possess the physique and beauty of the reigning Hollywood queen. As a matter of fact, few per sons do possess such qualifica tions and those who do are not necessarily goo d matrimonial risks. But somehow or other these notions do influence many American young people. A combination of romantic love and dating patterns in our society help make this so. On most dates boys and girls rarely get to know each other well. They see only a superficiality. Both are dressed for the occa sion, the boy may have some money at the moment, and with soft lights, hard liquor and rock and roll, they both appear daz zling. Cold Analysis But long before going steady occurs, there should be some cold, sober analysis of what just each person is like. It's always a good idea to have a look at the family. Each may be seeing his future there, and it may come as a sharp and dismaying shock. If this is really the only prob lem you see with the prospective marriage of your daughter, you are a fortunate mother. But it would be wise to discuss it as calmly as possible. Try to draw her out without committing yourself. Don't begin by warn ing her of dire, future conse quences in dressing patterns if she marries a man shorter than she. Most mothers are proud of their daughters and get a vica rious satisfaction out of their appearance. I have a feeling that you think her going steady with a short man detracts from her somehow or other. I hope I am wrong, but only you can really answer that one. Your daughter will have to make this decision herself. And she should make it soon. If they have been going steady for four . months, it would appear you are quite right about it being serious. Perhaps what really happens in marriage when husband and wife truly love each other, is that the short man seems a very _big man to his wife, and his big ness is not in stature but in character, responsibility and de votion to her.

Train Passenge.rs Get Disp~nsation WASHINGTON (NC) - The Congregation of the Council has ruled that passengers on railroad trains are not bound by the law of abstinence. The ruling was made known in a letter sent to all members of the U. S. hierarchy by Msgr. Paul F. Tanner, general secre tary, National Catholic Welfare Conference, at the request of Archbishop Egidio Vagnozzi, apostolic delegate in the United States. "Under date of April 1, 1965 the Sacred Congregation of the Council has written that, in view of the difficulty that the railroad companies have in pre paring meatless meals, the pass engers should not be considered as bound by the law of absti nence," Msgr. Tanner's letter said. For some months passengers on various airlines have been dispensed from the law of ab stinence.
New Cabinet THE HAGUE (NC)-A new Dutch government, headed by a leader of the Catholic People's party, has been sworn in, ending a 45-day cabinet crisis caused by disagreement over the in troduction of commercial tele vision into the Netherlands.
ST. LOUIS (NC)-About 800 Catholic theologians were told here that the principle of reli gious freedom is too important to remain undefined for the en tire Church. The idea that each man must be free to worship God as he chooses has long been accepted by American Catholics, said Kenneth L. Schmitz, a member of the philosophy department at Marquette University. But, he added, "if we grant that religious liberty is both a religious and human good, we cannot be con tent with cutting it off at the American shorelines. "It would be wrong to expect non-Catholic Americans to stop caring about the liberties of other men. The forceful action of the American cardinals in promoting a universal proclama tion on this matter indicates that they appreciate the radical indi viduality of the problem and its implications. A theologian, Father Bernard Haering, C.SS.R., told those at tending the 11th national con vention of the Society of Cath olic College Teachers of Sacred Doctrine he is not disturbed that the ecumenical council failed to act on the religious liberty dec laration at the council's third session. The German Redemptorist priest, who is a theology "ex pert" at the council, said he is hopeful that an even stronger statement on the subject will be approved at the fourth session which will convene in Septem ber.
Need Public Funds To Back Charities CHICAGO (NC)-The admin istrator of Chicago Catholic Charities said private charitable agencies will need government financial assistance if they are going to maintain or increase their future services. Msgr. Vincent W. Cooke told the organization's annual meet ing that Community Fund assist ance "seems to be approaching its peak potential and cannot be considered as a major source of future and increased income." "Therefore," he said, "to fi nance future, increased opera tional expenditures, we must ask the public agencies or public funds to assume a greater share of the financial responsibility. This is especially true in the field of child care which repre sents half of our total budget."

A nun who heads the socioloM department at Emmanuel Col lege in Boston told the delegatee lOhe detects a pattern among "re actionaries [who] often resist change by seeking to find chal' acter flaws in those. advocating new ideas." Said Sister Marie Augusta Neal, S.N.D.: "It would appear that heresy hunting is a mechan ism used to prevent new ideas from being heard from anyone with a character flaw, and that seeking character flaws is a de vice to which the change-resist ing person moves swiftly upon hearing ideas uncongenial to his old set."
Urges Good Use Of Leisure Time VATICAN CITY (NC)-Cath olics have a grave duty to de velop the wholesome and profit able aspects of the use of leisure time in the modern world, the Vatican said. In a letter sent in the name of Pope Paul VI to Annecy, France, for the national convention of the Union of Catholic Organiza tion in France, Amleto Cardinal Cicognani, papal secretary of state, stated the Holy See's atti tude toward the new problem of the use of the increased leisure time created by modern technol ogy. The letter said: "Following profound changes which have occurred in the structure of society in the course of the centuries, the Church as such no longer has to fulfill the Fole which was hers in various ages of inspiring and preparing for recreation. But the Church now as in the past exhorts her sons, whether individually M united in groups, to act in ac cordance with the grave duty which is incumbent on them in this field." The letter pointed out that Catholics have the task of fur thering man's welfare by pro moting recreational organiza tions.

Lauds RecQgrition of Church Related Schools WASHINGTON (NC)-Colum nist Walter Lippman has lauded Congress for its recognition of church-related schools as Amer ican and an essential part of the American school system. A Lippman syndicated column "On Aid to Religious Schools" published in the Washington Post, dealt with President John son's aid to education bill, con taining aid to religious schools and approved by Congress. Giving his views on the mea sure, Lippman wrote: Entitled to Aid "What is novel in it and high ly significant is the recognition by Congress t hat religious schools are American schools, that they are an essential part of the American school system. "Inasmuch as the religious schools instruct in religion, they cannot be given Federal aid without contravening the fimt
amendment. But insofar as they provide education which is non religious, they are entitled· to re ceive Federal aid. "It has long seemed to me that the public policy of the Act can be stated in the following way. It is a fundamental principle of American society that education is so indispensable that govern
ment rightly makes it compul-· sory. At all levels of government, the nation since it was founded has promoted education in schools and colleges. Educational Agencies "It has never been the rule or the practice to make it compul sory that children be educated in public schools alone. From the
Judge Overturns .Film Censor Law RICHMOND {NC) - CirCUit Court J u d g e John Wingo Knowles ruled here that Virgin ia's movie censorship law is an unconstitutional prior restraint on free expression and over "turned a ban on r: nudist movie. The ruling does not put the Virginia Division of Motion Pic ture Censorship out of e~istence but does remove its authority to enforce its decision banning
films. Judge Knowles based his de cision on a March ruling by the U. S. Supreme Court overturn ing Maryland's movie censorship system. The high court held then that prior censorship of films is not unconstitutional but must in clude adequate procedural safe guards for constitutionally pro tected movies.
beginning, American govern ments have accepted religious and private schools as educa tional agencies, provided they met certain standards of educa tional efficiency. If, then, private schools are legitimate and recognized insti tutions, then justice demands and the public interest requires that they receive public assist ance, outside the prohibitions of the first amendment. "A parochial school is an. American school, and those who would deny it any public assist ance ought, if they had the cour age of their convictions, to ask that parochial schools be out lawed. "In fact, parochial schools are regarded as legitimate educa tional facilities, and in actual practice they have long been helped in one way or another by state and local authorities."

"I hate to write letters and I've never written a fan letter before, but I'm going to write to Mary Reed Newland to tell her how wonderful her talk was!" The speaker was a young mother, one~of a capacity audience that filled Catholic Woman's Club headquar ters on Rock Street, Fall River, to hear Mary Reed Newland speak on the Bible. Her en thusiasm was echoed and l'e echoed among hearers of the dynamic Mrs. Newland, mother of seven, lecturer, artist, writer and apostle of the liturgical life as it can be lived by families. Mrs. Newland described the Bible as the story of salvation, "the history of God's people, and God's love and mystery story." We must know something about its structure and purpose, she emphasized, "to understand the clues to the mystery." She noted that "the Bible is as much a sacramental encounter with God as is the act of receiv ing the Eucharist" and said that this was stressed in the Consti tution on the Sacred Liturgy produced by the Ecumenical Council. "It's not a sacred antique, but reaches into our lives today." said the speaker, in underlir.ing her theme that answers to every day problems may be found in the pages of Scripture. Oriental Imagery Mrs. Newland said that child ren should understand that the imagery of the Bible is not to he taken literally but is simply th- Oriental method of expres sing important ideas. "Noah's flood may have seemed to cover the world to the people of his time, but it really didn't," she said. "Nor is the story of Jonah and the whale to be taken literally, but rather as a par MARY REED NEWLAND
able." The new scripture:scholarship, she said, isn't "dangerous-just Mary in the New Testament. · New Testament is unintelligible common sense."
