DRIVE NEARS $800,000 The 1971 Catholic Charities Appeal today climbed to $780,828.84 with still many incomplete parish returns and special gift donations to be reported. The official closing is 12 noon tomorrow. This should see more parishes exceeding their 1970 final totals. Appeal Headquarters in Fall River has issued the final' notice. Dr. David Costa, Jr. of New Bedford, this year's Lay Chairman said: "All special gifts; priests' donations and parishioners' contributions must be at the offiCe by 12 noon tomorrow to be included in the official 1971 tabulation. We advise that all re-
turns tomorrow be made in person to insure proper accreditations. The final Appeal total will be published in next week's edition of the Anchor. We hope all of the 114 'parishes will be over the top by tomorrow." 63 parishes have surpassed their 1970 final totals and are members of the Honor Roll. The new members are: Holy Ghost, St. Mark, St. Mary, Attleboro; St. Mary, Mansfield; Our Lady of the Cape, Brewster; St. Margaret, Buz-' zards Bay; Our Lady of Victory, Centerville; St. Patrick, Falmouth; St. Joan of Tum to Page Three j

A uniform salary scale has been decided on which will affect alI religious women, whether they be engaged in teaching In schools or in programs of reli-' gious education in .parishes. The basic principle upon which the new salary scale rests is the amount required to support and maintain a teacher or religious educator. This is calculated ()n the basis of the usual 40 week academic year, beginning in September and terminating in June. Beginning Sept. 1, 1971, the folIowing salary scale' is to be adopted in the Diocese of Fall River for religious 'women 'whether they be engaged full time in teaching in schools or in the relgIous education apostolate in parishes: Sister with less than a Bachelor's Degree, $2,450.
VATICAN CITY (NC) -Pope Paul VI urged today's Christians to "invent new forms of modern democracy" to provide the rights of man. In an apostolic letter described by many as a new social encyclical, the 'Pope said that such new kinds of democracies should give "every man not only the opportunity to inform and express himself, but to involve himself in the commonresponsibility."

gist declared here in Michigan, emphasizing "what Mary. was, she still is." Father Eamon R. Carroll of the Catholic University of America, Washington D.C., spoke in the St. Mary's Cathedral here, urging Catholics to spread the words of the council Fathers, and to pray and encourage others to keep their devotion to the Mother of God. . He said an early council treatment of the role of the Blessed Virgin in the Church appeared in the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy in December, 1963. A year later, confusion arose at the' council when the bishops could not decide' what to do with separate documents on the Virgin, he said. They decided on a more expanded treatment than the one which appeared in the liturgy constitution. The expanded treatment was then, made part of the Constitution on the Turn to Page Eight

RT. REV. MSGR. JOHN S.
KENNEDY
Anne (1665-1714) was the last of the Stuarts to reign in Britain. She' was the daughter of James II, the last of the Catholic Stuarts to wear the crown. Precisely because he was a Catholic, James was overthrown in 1668, to be succe.eded' by his Protestant daughter, Mary, and her hus. band, William of Orange. Mary 'died in 1694, William in 1702, and thus did Anne, MaI:'Y's sister and !llso Protestant,' come to the throne. If Anne holds center stage in Mr. Green's book, the Churchills are: never ~far from that same spot. John Churchill, of course, was a military command'cr of genius and no mean hand at political maneuver. His wife Sarah had Jirst met Anne when both were children and it seemed most 'unlikely that Anne . would ever be queen. T~e association became very close, and Sarah was at Anne's side as the latter advanced toward rule of England. Loathed Catholic Church Anne was far from being a brilliant woman. Her education was rudimentary, and she had no preparation whatever for the role and duties of a monarch. She was firmly committed to the Church of England, and regarded the Roman Catholic Church with that loathing which was' fomented in the wake of the Reformation. Sarah Churchill was certainly clever.

Campus Ministry Data Available WASHINGTON (NC)-A computerized data bank on the campus ministry has been started and has been published. The directory and data bank were described as "the largest collection of processed information about Catholics in campus ministry ever assembled under Catholic auspices." Publication of the directory was made possible by a grant from Our Sunday Visitor Foundation, Huntington, Ind. The directory and data bank result from a joint effort between the campus ministry department, Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate, a church-related independent research agency located here and the U. S. Catholic Conference's division of higher education. The new directory provides bishops and diocesan directors of higher education with an overview of pastoral opportunities
and resources on campus within their jurisdictions. It lists alphabetically more than 2,000 public, private and Catholic institutions by state and diocese.'
. Newspaper Awards .
The three-bill package is expected to come up for final vote in both houses in the next few weeks. .
The computerized data bank provides the Conference higher education division with' easily accessible information on the personnel working as campus ministers and the various types of campuses they service. As information accumulates, it will help the division focus on future trends.

injustices the Church must become involved in politics. "Every social action which is developed within a p.olitical order either supports or challenges that order," he said. "That is why the more unjust the political regime is, the more 'subversive' social pastoral action becomes." "Although this action has a religious inspiration, it necessarily enters the political realm when it criticizes oppressive situations or when, because of a commitment to the oppressed, it seeks new structures which will incarnate and support greater justice and brotherhood."

Approve Communion Under Both Species NEWARK (NC)-Catholics in the Newark archdiocese may now receive the Eucharist as both bread and wine, except on Sundays and holy days of obligation. A spokesman for the U.S. bishops' liturgy committee secretariat said Newark was the first archdiocese he knew of to officially announce plans to start that liturgical practice. The nation's bishops approved Communion under both species as an option for American Catholics, with their local bishops' approval, in' November 1970. Heads of religious orders must also approve the practice fo!' houses under their jurisdiction. In their official instruction, the bishops did not include ordinary Masses on Sundays and holy days as occasions when the Eucharist could be distributed under both forms. They noted large attendance on those days would make the practice unwieldy.

Another-- Milestone
,~-
Pope Paul's apostolic letter issu:ed on the 80th anniversary of Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum is another milestone in the Church's concern for men. While realizing that man is made for God and to go back to God, the Church knows that he does this in the context of here-and-now situations of life and work and growth and development. And the context must be 'one of dignity and justice and concern both for the rights of the individual' and the good of every other individual as well. , The letter combines the pastoral concern of Pope Paul with the teaching style of Pope John and the preoccupation for social justice of Pope Leo. The problems it addresses itself to are the present ones of urbanization, suburban, growth, ferment among youth, incre~sing' use of drugs, emancipation of women, discrimination in many forms, crime, eroticism. The Pope insists that the Christian community has only to be true to its own principles in order to work out the changes in persons and in social structures thafwill insure that the individual.is free to develop and that groups of men likewise be able to enjoy what individuals enjoy. Each man in his journey' through life and to greater degrees ,of freedom and happiness and dignity must be involved with all other men. The Pope was critical of liberalism that exalts the . individual without any limitation as well as of the political doctrine that presupposes violence as a necessary instrument of change. ' \
Chrjstianity has answers for continuing and new social ills. But' men and nations must reach out t6 and for these answers and must put them into action. If this involves' a change 'in the individual, then let the individual cha~ge. If this involves a change in structures, then let the structures change. ' ,
"
But' there must be action.

ered arm near enough for a touch of those healing hands, or just perhaps a clutch at the Lord's sleeve as He passed by.
By BARBARA WARD
We know the Apostles tried to reduce the pressure a' bit. But Christ was on the side of the mothers. "Suffer the children to come ...", the cripples, the little creatures with the fly-covered eyes of trachoma, the poor dim wits who had never had enough protein for their infant brains to grow, the little dehydrated bodies of those in the last stages of' dystentery, all the sores and pains and fevers unrelieved by skilled help or medicine, brought to the Lord in the last hope-or hour-of life. Relief of Pain Nineteen hundred years have gone' by ,since our good' Lord cured the children and comforted the mothers. We cannot l~ok back on these years, as our grandfathers did, as times of steady human advance and progress. Yet one thing we must say. One of the incredible blessings of this often so maligned 20th century is the degree to which the aching, agonizing unbearable pain of fever, cholera, septicemia, plague, leprosy - all the thousand scourges of misery endured by the human rac~have given ground before mankinds' deepening knowledge of the hum,an body and of the drugs, sanitary procedures and nursing care which allow it to mobilize its own incredible powers of self~cure and recovery. All through the modernized nations, fever hospitals, are closed down. Scarlet fever and diphtheria, the killers of the young, 'are Virtually dead themselves. ,The hospitals and sanitaria for tuberculosis are used 'for other things. The average man and woman can now expect to live out the Biblical span of "three score years and ten." Which Childrent We have a lot of reasons for being a bit dubious about the notion of automatic, continuous, uncheckable progress. But we should be thanking God every day of our lives that man's Godgiven intelligep.ce, working tirelessly and devotedly in the field of health has extended the gift of he,aling to such a fantastic
Independence It is not the greatness of a man's means that makes him independent so much as the smallness of ,his wants. -Cobbett
San Francisco or London or Stockholm or Mosco'Y or Sydney or-provided you are J)ot black -in Johannesburg, you will be, from the moment of your birth (in fact, well before it) within reach of the healing arts. The lowest infantile mortality rates, the highest protein diets, immu-_ nization against, all the old killers-these are the' guarantees for all the modern little Josephs and Rebeccas that they will grow up with bodies working !without deprivation and pain. But 900 million children do not get born within the magic circle of the developed lands. And the United Nations body which studies their plight most closely-the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF)-has just published its annual reoort. Here are some of the facts. Half these 900 million children are suffering from some kind of malnutrition. Ninety per'cent of them,ninety per cent-have no med, ical care whatsoever. In the big cities, more and more of them are homeless. Every night, half a million people. thousands of them young children, sleep on Calcuttta's pavements. In Delhi, 70 per cent of the slum houses have no water,. nearly half are without any form of sanitation. Dysentery is endemic. Cholera ' is coming back. Evasive Action Confronted with such facts we' can take a lot of evasive ac: 路tion. We can say that poor 'parents must adopt resT'lonsible and morally acceptable family planning, true advice, no doubt, but not attracive on the lips of the well-to-do. Or we can say that the problem is too big, anyway, and meanwhile we have to get our own f,ine, healthy intelligent litand Rebeccas tle Josephs through college. . Or we can 'slly-which is not false-that even in America or England or France there are still some very poor children who' surely, must be helped first and the welfare and taxation needed for this makes anything extra quite out of the question. But' is that all we have to say? Is there nothing to spare from an insane world's annual $200 billion arms budget? Nothing to transfer from ,average family incomes of $lO,OOO? Nothing extra from Christians? No thought that the healing Lord we are called to follow was not daunted by numbers but preCisely had compassion on the multitudes? UNTCFF does miracles with its $30 millions a year-which is ' about one hundredth \of America's bill for cosmetics. Between the extra lipstick and the dying child, there is surely for a Christian soul some disproportion, some loss of grace. With this issue, The Anchor resumes Barbara Wnrd's column, briefly interrupted due to her illness.

oracle that foretold' this lovely news for Fall and Winter '71 is Hilda' Cook, fashion coordinator for the Allied Stores buying office in New York. She was ·the guest speaker at a reo: cent meeting of the Fashion Group of Boston, which I attended..

Striking in a midi knit that featured pale mauve bodice and a deeper toned mulberry skirt, accented with matching decorated stockings and buclded .shoes, Miss 'Cook epitomized the · elegant woman who will have a chance to "be 'fashion" before long. .

Hemlines will, for the major. ity of women, settle just below · the knee but "longer coats and dresses· will be in evidence for those who enjoy wearing them. Dresses are in for a glorious' revival, especially the 'ever-popular shirtwaist and the "little black" number that we all demanded in our wardrobes back in the late forties and fifties. Many of these dresses, especially if they're done in a softened jersey," will be accompanied by a blazer jacket. Miss Cool<- spoke in. glowing terms of the lovely jewel-toned blazers she had viewed in one collection and she predicted that the blazer infiuence will continue into Fall, through Winter and

lYIiss Cook did a fantastic job forecasting the colors that we ,would be wearing for Fall and the name that kept popping up time and again in her commentary was a rich, warm shade called Red Onion. To my inexperienced eye it resembled the win family; hqwever, whatever its former name was, Red Onion looks like the pick of the crop for Fall (excuse the poor purl). Hilda Cook's forecast was re~lly exciting when she discussed the shape that wraps will take, because here is where the elegance will really focus. Capes, capes, !!..nd more capes were her ,message and while capes have always been a fun fasi:Jion,this year they will be "the" warm 'coY,ering for Winter '71 and' '72. Despite the· fact that I still haven't worked on my Summer wardrobe, Hilda's predictions made' me want to forego warm weather fashions and plunge right into the ~Iegant era that will be Fall '71.

One of my sweet children told me, "Mommy, if you would organize your time better, you'd get more done." I should get a special 'indulgence for not murdering him right on the spot.

CCD on Wednesday, and then altar boys, CYO, 'Girl Scouts and assorted important appointments. I made notes" of .who could handle which jobs. The girls couldn't carry the full hampers of laundry; the laundry weighed more than the girls. The boys are all thumbs with the baby; the girls can't be allowed near the power mower. When I got it all worked out, there were just two people left ~o do the chores ... the baby and 1 me. . I tore up that chart, and started again. In the time it took me to 'make out the schedule, I could have had half the I~undry folded. But it seemed important that the children become aware of the division of responsibilities in running a household. Besides, it might help keep peace if they felt there was a fair division of labor. Instead of entirely dismissing them. on their busy days, I worked out afternoon chores when they were busy in the evenings, and vice versa.
on Thursday." . "How come I have to carry the hampers three times a week, and / he only has them twice?" "How come I have to vacuum the living room? I hate that . b )0 . My bubble burst. "The next kid who says 'how come' can do all the chores! The job list stands that way. If anyone of you has a better suggestion, write it up. If it's an improvement, we'll switch to your plan. In the meantime, get started on your chores for today." They didn't hear beyond "a better plan." They all started writing new schedules, but ran into more problems than I had. Of course, each was trying to eliminate himself from the' chores he didn't like. Same Old Snaiu They settled :?or my system. It worked until dinner time. I heard voices in the living room. "Hey, old buddy boy, brother dear ..." "Who are you kidding? What're you looking for?" "I want to go out tonight. You do the dishes for me and I'll do them on your night." "I alreadv swapped my night with one of the girls." ' Before the wf:lek was rinished, there were so many exchanges, I lost track of who was on what. That's their system of defeating my systems. I threw out the schedule and went back to myoid plan. Rooms clean before they go out. Half-hour help each afternoon. And anyone caught, watching cartoons on TV gets assigned whatever needs to be done at the moment. It really doesn't keep the house clean, but it does cut down on the number of kids sprawled in front of the TV.
Didn't Work It was going beautifully. One
child could vacuum upstairs on Monday, another downstairs on Tuesday. Two others could repeat the process on Friday and Saturday, and the house would stay clean without it being a big problem for anyone. Just as I got it written in the little boxes, I remembered why that didn't work the last time J tried it. Certain people won't allow certain other people in their rd'om!! ... even to vacuum. Okay, each kid vacuums his own room. After much crossing out, relocating, dividing and combining, I finally had it! Each child had a half-hour's work each school day, and about two hours on the weekend, and all the routine chores were divided fairly. I made a cup of coffee and envisioned how beautifully the whoie system would work. There would be no friction regarding chores; no opportunities 10r, "How come he's out playing when I have to work?"

Says Maryls Virtues Challenged, Needed ROME (NC) Archbishop Franjo Kuharic of Zagreb, Yugoslavia,preaching at a Mass here, asserted that Mary's virtues are the very values men most strongly challenge and most deeply need. . , "Among the most efficacious remedies for the evils afflicting humanity today," said the archbishop, are Mary's most characteristic virtues, "those very values that are most challenged: obedience, chastity, humility, sincerity and faith in God's active presence in human' history." Archbishop Kuharic had come to Rome to concelebrate the Mass with Cardinal Franjo Seper, his predecessor as archbishop of Zagreb and now prefect of the Vatican's Doctrinal Congregation. The Mass in Rome's Croatian church marked the cere,monial announcement of the sixth international Mariological Congress and '~he 13th international Marian Congress to be h~ld Aug. 6-15 in. YugOSlavia.

Christian Conce1rn for Downtrodd·en Continued from Page One 'The ferment of. youth; The emancipation of women and the rights of workers; The need of tackling new problems with bright new ideas. Equality 10r All Some of the old ideas the Pope criticized for riot really solying social issues were Marxism, free-wheeling laissez-faire capitalism and some forms of socialism. He said that Marxism presupposes atheism, preaches a dialectic of violence and denies the transcendental. He criticized the liberalism that exalts individual freedom without any limitation. . The Pope insisted that the Christian community with a new form of democracy can provide the right to equality and involvement for every man. "It is for the Christian communities to discern, with the help of the Holy Spirit, in communion with the bishops concerned and .in dialogue with other. Christian brothers. and with all men of goodwill, the options and commitments to be adopted in order to work out those social, political and economic transformations that are considered necessary," the Pope said. . Christi'an Principles .~ The Pope said the Christian will be guided in establishing the rights of man by his faith :lnd by ChristialT' principles. These principles, he said, are to be found in the main themes of preceding papal social encyclicals, which call not only for 'a change of heart in men, but also for a change of structures in society. The letter conCluded with a pressing appeal for implementation by men everywhere of these papal. suggestions for a
new order in the world. The letter appeared to have all the characteristics generally attributed to an encyclical. It is a papal letter about the doctrinal and moral dimensions of human situations, and, although formally addressed to Cardinal Roy, clearly destined for the whole Church. Following are highlights :'rom Pope Paul's apostolic letter commemorating the 80th anniversary of the encyclical Rerum Novarum of Pope Leo XIII: Democracy In order to counterbalance increasing technocracy, modern forms of democracy must be devised, not only making it possible for each man to become informed and to express himself, but also by involving him in a shared responsibility. Christian Organizations Christian organizations, under their different forms, have a responsibility for collective action. Without putting themselves
in the place of the institutions of civil society, they have to express, in their own way and ri~ ing above their particular nature, the concrete demands of the Christian faith for a just; and consequently necessary, transformation of society. Marxism . (A Christian) cannot adhere to the Marxist ideology, to its atheistic materialism, to it~ dialectic of violence and to the way it absorbs individual freedom in the COllectivity, at the same time denying all transcendence to man and his personal and collective history. lEcology Man is suddenly becoming aware that by an ill-considered exploitation. of nature he risks destroying it and becoming in his turn the victim of this degradation. Not only is the material environment becoming a permanent menace-pollution and refuse, new illnesses and absolute Turn to Page Ten,

These are some of the questions I am most frequently asked as National Director. These are all good questions, and because they express your love for God and the desire to help others in a practical and worthwhile way, you should know some of these basic answers. We should remember above all that underlying all missionary work (and thus its support) is the simple truth that God is present and acting in our' world. And we can rest assured that no task force on earth is doing more for the TOTAL HUMAN DEVELOPMENT of the world's underpriviledged and poor, than the Church's missionary personnel. When' you give to the Society for the Prapagation' of the Faith (through your parish, Diocesan Office,' or the National Office) you are giving to the universal Church's ONLY agency responsible for some of its most basic mission needs on a worldwide· scale ,and in an equitable manner. Briefly this is' how it works:

Your donation is put together with those from every country in what we call the "General Fund." Each year, 823 local Churches (mission dioceses) in Africa, Asia, Oceania, and Latin America receive from $17,500 to $25,000, depending on need. This aid we call the "daily bread" of the missionary personnel; it has to provide food medical care, cBothes and travel for our mission people; it is miserabny inadequate,' but without it the life and work of the Church would collapse. It is not the mo~t glamorous thing we do, but it is the most urgently necessary! The remaining funds are distributed for particular projects and special needs fot" that year only. These include: teachers' training and salaries-building chapels, schools, medical ceriters--disaster relief, housing, medicine, food-care of orphans, the aged, and leprosy patients--communicationsand training local religious and laity, to name only a few.
Each year the' needs increase, and we never have enough, yet EVERY CENT that we receive is actually used IN THE MISSIONS within the year. We have no reserves, no investments, literally nothing to count on or fall back on, save the charity of people like you.

The kind of meaningful penance and sacrifice Jesus lived and preached was the acceptance of whatever was required to respond to God's call as He recognized it' in the values of life and the needs of people. This is the type of penance and sacrifice that is strongly recommended in religious education' today. W.hat. is most important is not the difficulty involved, but the degree to which a person is opened to God in others, in himself and in life.' Penance is seen more a willingness to constantly grow, to grapple with the deep inborn tendency to selfishness in· an effort to become more fully alive and loving. At times the struggle may'require giving up something pleasant. even inflicting some pain on oneself.

Penance Continued from Page Sixteen the desert or even "entering {nto one's closet" to pray. In this sense it is giving up company' and can be a material help for prayer. But solitude as creating space to be yourself, to maintain your own identity even路 in a crowd is also a pre:condition for prayer, even though you do not give up anything. Let God Enter Our Lives Recotlection does' not mean withdrawal but being present where you are, being "all there" and not divided in your loving awareness of reality. People who are only '~half' there" are preoccupied with themselves rather than with people and.. with God. . Spiritual writers have developed theologies of penance and asceticism, Some follow the distinction of St. John of the Cross between the active and passive purifications of the soul; others prefer Teilhard de Chard in's doctrine and find penance both in the effort to contribute to life and the acceptance of the negative side of existence, which Teilhard calls the human diminishments. But whatever the distinctions, all penance has the same goal, and that is to let God come into our lives ever more fully. We cannot achieve this without pain and suffering, without letting our hearts be broken open in little ways or big. This will happen by the .stwggle against our bad selves and by loving our brothers, who like ours~lves are sinners and always hurt the ones who love them. Discussion Questions 1. Why is penance called "conversion?" 2. Why is dieting not fasting?

Stresses Immense Vitality Of ·American Catholncism I was recently discussing the Catholic lecture circuit with 'my good friend Father Gregory Baum. "There are," said Father Baum, "so many beautiful people out there." By "out there" he meant the colleges, the parishes, the retreat centers, the adult: ed~ ucation programs, the lec- priests, and 1- sense the great weariness and discouragement. I ture series which abound in begin to think that the enthusithe grass roots of American asm "out there" in the hinter-
Catholicism.. One cannot encounter the people who staff these -programs and those who par-' ticipate in them without sensing the immense vitality still to be found in the American Catholic Church.
By
REV. ANDREW GREELEY
No, (must say more than that. Not only is there vitality'in places like Phoenix, San Antonio,' and Columbus and Little Rock and Scranton and Lafayette; there is, if anything, even more vitality, more enthusiasm than there was a few years ago. Despite all the' crises, despite all the frustration, the disillu!'ionment, the disappointments, one cannot be on the lecture circuit for very long and be oblivious to the energies and the enthusiasms that are pulsating in the American .Church. The clergy is. caught in an identity crisis. The religious orders are experiencing a massive exodus. Communication between hishops anCi priests seems to be bad. The middle-aged are' attracted by the mindblowers and the young by the crazies: The intellectuals seem to think that there is nothing worth. saving in the Church, and the journals present a pictur~ of unrelieved gloom. .Battle Worth Fighting And yet the energy and the .yitality are 'still there. The elite groups in the Church seem unaware of it. One looks in vain, for example, in our most advanced journals for any description, much less analysis, of the vital energy of Americ'an Cath.Glicism. . . John Deedy, for.' example, . in a recent article in The New Republic suggests that the Chu~ch pews are empty, the young are no longer interested: Yet the Newman Clubs and college chapels and Catholic high schools are vibrant with enthusiastic experime.ntal liturgy. That they are swarming with young people can be observed by anyone who cares to find them. Whenever· I am off on the lecture circuit, I come back with the same feeling I used to experience when. coming back from a retreat. The battle is still worth fighting, the Spirit is still at work. There is no room for disillusionment and discouragement. It's. Still There And then I am back home. I read the newspapers, I talk to
ilands! . was a figment of my imagination. I am almost afraid to venture forth again for fear' that it isn't there anymore. But it' still is; and if someone with a personality' an'd background ,as different ·from mirie as Father Baum sees. it too, then it's sure .to be there. :'You're right, Gregory," I said leaning across the supper table, "and they deserve better. Better bishops, better priests, better in. tellectuals, better journalists. They deserve .better leaders. They have a right to prophets and mystics; poets and saints. ··If they had only a few enthusiastic and visionary leaders they cpuld create a new . Church and a n~w' America." Father Baum will have .to speak for himself, but I don't think he disagreed with ine. There are some times when I am firmly persuaded that I am on the .losing side, that in the name of "relevance". we are about to jettison the whole Cath.. olic tradition, the whole accomplishment of American Catholicism. We may write off the past as a mistake and begin over with a Church' designed to meet the demands currently fashionable among a small group of selfdefined intellectuals. But when I encounter Father Baum"s "beautiful people" out there ih the heartland of Americ~n Catllolicism, I am not so sure. .The American Catholic people do deserve better-,-better than the journalists who write them off as hardhats, better than the poetic revoiutionaries who de' nounce them as insane, better than the shallow social critics who dismiss them .as . racists~ better than a leadership which is afraid to lead. But if they deserve better, I think they are more than able to function with what they have, and that despite the com~ bined efforts of the reactionaries and the radicals, despite even the loss 9f nerve of many clergy and n;ligious, American Catholicism is too 'strong to destroy. And its best years are still ahead.
Honors Editor NEW YORK (NC)-The National Conference of Christians·· and Jews voted a special·media award to A. E. ~. Wall, editor of' The Catholic Review, Baltimore archdiocesan' newspaper, who will leave his post to join the, staff of -a daily newspaper in Honolulu in June. Harry A. Rob- ' inson, NCCJ public relations director, said Wall was honored for an article he wrote last Sum- ' mer about a visit to Israel. He ' said . the article distributed nationally by NC' News Service, was an "important contribution : to Jewish-Christian relations."
