Calls. Views Na%i~Like NEW YORK (NC)-The views of some advocates of population control are similar. to those of the Nazis, say the leading article and an editorial in the May issue of Commentary, a'monthly, published here by the American Jewish Committee. In the article, "The Population Controllers," Samuel McCracken, who teaches literature and the humanities at Reed College in Oregon, notes that Paul R. Erlich, author of "The Popul,ation Bomb," a' best-!!eller advocating Zero Population Growth, and other supporters of population control favor "the quality of life rather than. its quantity." Remarking that the cpncept is not original with them, McCracken recalls that the Nazi program envisioning the starvation of millions in the occupied territories was developed by Hitler's Gestapo chief and minister 'of the interior, Heinrich Himmler, "in the explicit belief that he was opting for racial quality over quantity.

' In the Commentary editorial, edit(lr Norman Podh'oretz discuss,es the views of control advocates with reference to a Wasllington conference he attended on the subject of mongoloid children. Some at the conference, he says, supported "negative euthanasia,''' refraining from medical (ir surgical procedure!. which might be necessary to keep a mongoltlid infant alive and allowing it to die instead. Many Defectives "One very distinguished scientist" at the conference, Podhoretz'says, told him that those who accept aborti'on should accept ,', infanticide, "particularly when the infant in question was known to be defective whereas the fetus to be aborted might be normal and sound."

"Hearing this," Podhoretz says, "I was reminded of the old Oatholic argument of the 'slip- , pery slope," according to which the legitimation of abortion would set off just su~h a downward moral momentum as was implicit in the distinguished scientist's position." ,Podhoretz pointed out to the scientist that mongoloids are defective, but so are many other kinds of people. Some are blind, some are deaf, some are halt, some are lame, and some have missing limbs; some are 'given to madness and some' are the prey of disease. If mongoloids can be put to death, why not· these, and if these, why not anyone who fails of absolute perfection? Untroupled by this, Podhoretz says, the scientist then spoke of 'a colleague, also distinguished, "who believes that no newborn infant should be declared human until it has passed certain tests regarding its genetic endowment; if it fails these tests, it forfeits the right to live." Saying that McCracken makes it clear to him that such views have "'infected the populationcontrol movement," Podhoretz goes on to say that he suspects "that we may be dealing here not merely with an effort to control the quality of life but with an effort to control the quality of 'the hum'an 'stock' itself. "The last time suCh, an effort was made, of course, was' by the Na?:is, and so horrible were the consequences that many people' assumed it would never be tried again. Evidently, however, it has taken only 25 years for the eugeni~ dream to return ... armed in the righteousness of a promise to eliminate. all hereditary disorders and to save the world at least from human imperfection itself. n,

Bernstein ' Ma-ss' Draws Criticism At Festival CINCINNATI .(NC) This city's May Festival of Music, traditionally a dignified climax to the music season, has become the center of a controversy over Leonard Bernstein's "Mass." The production-the 'first since its world premiere at the opening of the new Kennedy Center in Washington last Fall - was labeled "a blasphemous parody of the Mass" in an advertisement in the Catholic Telegraph, archdiocesan paper here. The group which paid for the ad said the Bernstein work denied the divinity of Christ and attacked "the doctrine of the Blessed Sacrament." . In a letter to the priests of his archdiocese, Archbishop Paul F. Leibold said that Bernstein's "handling of an element that is evidently taken from our most sacred act of worship is in extremely bad taste and offensive to what we hold in great reverence." Archbishop Leibold said, however, that Bernstein apparently "has no real concept of the Mass, ,so it is possible that he sees no problem in this matter." Mixed Reaction In ,an interview in the February 1972 issue of High Fidelity magazine, Bernstein had said: "I was worried about offending Catholics-the last thing in the world I wanted to do." The Bernstein compositiondescribed 'as a theater piece for singers, players 'and dancers with texts from the liturgy of the Roman Mass-drew mixed reaction in "Catholic circles when 'first performed six 'months ago, although music critics for the media generally praised it as brilliant and extraordinary. Father John Gallen, a Jesuit theologian, wrote in America. magazine that the "Mass'" was "a religiously successful' work" which "brings us, in the midst of turmoil, to peace." Criticism of the Bernstein Mass came from Father Gilbert V. Hartke, chairman of the speech and drama department at . the Catholic University of America in Washington: In a telephone interview with The Catholic Telegraph, Father Hartke said, "Bernstein doesn't believe in the Mass,doesn't understand the .Mass," His theatrical production is "a description of religion," Father Hartke said. He c;riticized the music as a "conglomeration of other Bernstein compositions and -those of other composers, but his principal target was what he called Bernstein's "attempt to destroy . the concept of the Mass." "One of my dearest Jewish friends," Father Hartke related, "said to me that if that was the Torah' (instead of the bread and wine used in Mass), every Jewish person would be up in arms."

Laymen Elected MINNEAPOLIS (NC)-Twenty lay persons have been elected delegates to ,the newly formed Pastoral Council of the St. PaulMinneapolis archdiocesse. Over 220 lay representatives, representing 520,000 Catholics of the archdiocese, elected the 14 men and six women who will serve ort the council with six religious and clergy elected earlier.

Hope is a handful of practical-action peoplepriests, Sisters, and qualified volunteers-who leave their own homes and become refugees in the Holy Land for the refugees. These people, just a handful, are our Pontif. ical Mission for Palestine. They are people who feed, teach, heal, clothe, mend. fulfilling the love-mission of Jesus Christ, in Bethlehem, Nazareth, Cairo, Damascus, and war points in between. Their mission is love, and peace with justice. Their strategy is service-the works of mercy, person-to·person, in the ,name of Jesus Christ. There is hope in the hl~art of the blind child in the Gaza Strip because he is learning a trade in the Pontifical Mission Center for the Blind. In Abu-Dis, outside Jeruscllem, an elderly Muslim prays contentedly to Allah because Sister Patrick, from Ireland, is at his side.

A recent editorial in the' Vatican's L'Osservatore· Romano quoted the voices of Soviet. citizens in the press pleading for peace and disarmament and said, "These vojces are the thought, the preoccupations' and the expeetations, we can well say, of the whole world."

It must be quite obvious that increased security does not guarantee a public personality protection. from theassassin~s gun. The question '~us' remains is why does the assassin have the ability to procure weapons? The answer to this is very simple, namely, the American people. Gun control law in the United States is almost a joke. Very few law enforcement agencies and personnel could dispute the obvious I situation that really does exist in this nation with reference to the' purchase, legal or illegal,of weapons. One reason for this 'is the great apathy and indifference of tl'!e -Americim public. Most people in this nation just want. to be )eft :alone, ll;n'd ~Qt get' .involved.

And prophesies of catastrophe can be self-fulfilling if they con· tribute to a mentality that views every expression of, uncertainty or disagreement as a form of treason or a harbinger of immi· nent disaster." . Bishop Bernardin said that in the current "admittedly difficult times" he believes the Church is best served by "a realistic appraisal of conditions" which acknowledges their complex~ty, as well as their positive and nega· tive aspects. "In any case, .I surely, agree· with the 'author that one can be confident of the 'sl,lrvival and salvation' of the Cathlic Church in the United States," the bishop remarked.

The question of where fashion ends and bad taste begins will probably becoI:Jle one of the most widely asked of the coming summer season. Already we are seeing a large 4isplay (and I do mean 'display) of the backless and frontless fashions that Naturally, most women want are, appearing on the scene to look pretty, striking, attractive for this summer. Just the or well-dressed at fun<:tions they other evening we attended attend, but in most cases style an affair where one of the queries of the night was "Did you see the girl in the white dress?" Probably the question

By MARilYN RODERICK ~

could have been phrased better, by asking, "Did you see the girl who almost has a dress on?" The young lady in question was tall, dark and quite attractive but for some reason she felt that the only way she could be noticed was by wearing the most daring dress she could find. . We're treated to this type of thinking each year as we watch the Academy· Awards' program and observe an array of stars and starlets flitting across the screen each. trying t9 ou~do the. other for the "nudity" award. ' Why Do It? While it's understandable that actresses· whose careers depend upon staying in the public's fickle gaze will do anything to be noticed, I do find it difficult here in New England to· imagine why the average woman would want to draw this type of attention to· herself.

and bareness do not go hand in hand. This season, I must admit, fashion does decree a great deal of bareness but again even the most chic of fashions must be worn at the appropriate time and place and by someone it looks well on. Backs are bare, necklines are plunging, bu~ if wearing such styles makes you uncomfortable, then by all means :;hy away from them. Remember, you wear the dress, don't let it wear you; Also remember tha,t with so much bareness in evidence the really outstanding woman will be the one who covers·' up. Women have always intrigued the male of the species by their mystery-Salome was a femme fatale with all of her veilg..;...but it looks as if this season very little will be left to the imagination.

.Resect President Of DCCN

Prorbl,em-P,es,ky P,osies Pine When I was a kid, I had an aunt who said pansies had "angel faces." I personally thought they looked more like kittens . . . but my aunt wasn't one to be questioned on such dogmatic facts of theology. Though we never re. solved the question of what they looked like I ha-:e al- pansy plants, but that wasn't ways felt that ~ansies are i~portant as I awaited my one ,. lIttle package of seeds. one of God s chOicest flowWhile I was waiting I read

ers. I~ fact, much to our ~lorist's chagnn, when I was makmg the arrangements for my wedding (age~ and ages a.go), I. wanted pansIes for my brIdesmaIds bouquets.

MARY CARSON

The owner of the florist was most gracious about it. "I don't care what flowers you use, lady. If you say you want dandelions, I'll use them ... and if you say you want pansies, I'll use them. You're paying for it. I'm just warning you. They'll probably die before you get married. But if that's what you want, it's all right with me ..." They were beautiful .. and he was right. They died in the middle of the reception. But I was glad that my emotion won over his reason. , Can't Resist Every year since then, around the middle of May, I can't resist the boxes of pansies at our local nursery. For days I tell myself that I shouldn't splurge, but before our wedding anniversary comes around, somehow, emotion becomes more logical than reason. The pansies move from the nursery to my garden. I finally decided that I should stop being so extravagant. I was going to grow my own. The photograph& in the seed catalog , were like something heaven-sent. They were exquisite; deep colors that never reach our nursery; huge blossoms with striking etched markings. And they were listed under "of easy culture ... desirable for beginners." That was all the convincing I needed. I sent -away for my packet of seeds, while visions of a garden full of pansies ... and enough to give my mother, my husband's mother, all my sisters-in-law, probably enough for the whole neighborhood ... danced through my head. My visions would have required a whole farm full of·

everything I could on' "pansy culture" and found all sorts of conflicting advice. In fact, there seem to be as many right ways to grow pansies as there are right ways to raise kids. When I found the instructions on how to start them in the house, I should have remembered how I grow plants indoors. I can sprout anything ... then I kill it. While visiting a friend, he showed me his blooming greenhouse in his boiler room. Under artificial lights, he was growing anything ... inclUding pansies. He assured me he'd be glad to plant my seeds for me. But that old problem of pride stuck its head in. I'd grow my own! Learning Experience I expJ,ained what a marvelous learning experience it would be for the kids, and went on my way. My husband rigged a special light. while I once again read the instructions. They had to be germinated in the dark! Oh well, I'd need that light to grow them to the peak of "their perfection, after they sprouted. One half of my counter space in the kitchen had to give way for all my little pots of soil. After all, they had to be some place where I could carefully tend them. (Exactly what.I was going to do for them during their 10 germination days of darkness, I don't know ... but I peeked every day. I told myself I was to check that they maintained an even moisture, but I was looking for those first little shoots.) The 10 days passed ... then 11 ... then 12. .. And on the 13th day I had the most beautiful crop of mold and fungus you ever saw. Nursery ... here I come. I know that only God can make ·a tree. But since I can't write a poem, shouldn't I be able to grow at least one little pansy?

OUR LADY OF FATIMA,.

Of course, they ,need help and guidance, if they are to 'have any success' at all, but once they have that .success th'ey cherish th~ir experience. Surefire Products The thing to do is to start with surefire products. A good plant for children is an easy vegetable such as string beans Which, can be planted from seed and will grow under diffi~ult conditions. ,They sprout relatively quickly and grow rapidly. For' quick corn which makes rapid growth and the low, quick-growing plants such as cucumbers and squash. Again these are all relatively sure-fire and the children can get visible results from their efforts in rapid-fire succession. The point of having the children participate in even a small endeavor is that they will rapidly come to appreciate their own efforts and gain respect for the garden. I can honestly say that my children have ,done very lit· tle damage to my garden, not so much because I am constantly harping at them but primarily because they have come to respect the garden and its contents alld to appreciate the flowers, fruit and vegetables which it produces.

ST. LAWRENCE

The world economy we inherit and, in the developed third of humanity, profit from enormously, is an inherited structure. It is based upon past colonial control and upon present enormbus technological superiority. And that superiority comes in part from the fact that colonial con- inherited injustice threatens, to more acute. Unless the imtrol allowed the peoples of grow balance is colintered and fought Europe, by trade, investment "by social and political action,

and settlement, to get for themselves all the world's temperate farming land and a large part of its mineral resources.

the influence of the new industrial and technological order favors the concentration of wealth, power and decisionmaking in the hands of a small public or private controlling group." ' Such concentrations are a global fact. In socialist countries it is proving very difficult to get control away from the bureaucrats in centralized ministries who resist local managerial autonomy and incentives for better performance at the level of the planet.

By BARBARA

WARD

Not Answerable

If we do not know these basic facts, we do not know the kind of world we are living in. If, for instance, the American Secretary of the Treasury says 'that the United States has been "too generous" with the rest of the world and must now fight for its own interests, he should, in justice, point out at Ule same time that 6 per cent of the world's population who live in the United States command between 35 and 40 per cent of the world's annual income. We should also remark that of the 100 largest economic communities in the world, only 50 are nation states. The other 50 are multinational corporations lilke General Motors and I.B.M., two thirds of which are American.

In this Western world, this' is, as we have seen, the age of the sudden expansion of enormous transitional business corporations. The American giants are responsible for producing abroad the equivalent of one quarter of America's gross national product of a trillion dollars ($1,000,000,000,000). Inside America, over the last two decades, the top 100 corporations (including I.T.T.) have come to control over 40 per cent of the total U. S. economy. The top 200 control a share that is nearer 60 per cent. Institutions of such size-be they the Soviet Ministry for Heavy Electrical Equipment or General Motors with an annual cash flow larger than many countries' entire national income - are barely answerable to ordinary citizens. In socialist countries, the public is excluded either as voters or consum~r until, as in Poland at Christmas 1970, the result can be violence in the streets. But in America, the orainary voter can be excluded by the ability of rich men and corporate interests to finance political campaigns. The 'Consumer has a little more freedom. But he is wooed every day to purchase goods whose price includes the cost of the wooing.

World's Colossus It is neither fair nor rational to speak of someone's "generosity" or of his "fighting for himself" unless we first take a look at a man's income. Aggressive "self-help" for a man who inherits half a billion dollars is very different from self-help for the son of a poor migrant. "Generosity" for, say, an Onassis is not exactly the same as the widow's mite. The United States is the world's colossus of wealth and both rationality and justice demand that American citizens -especially Christian citizensrecognize this fact. Equally West Europeans with about half the per capita income of America-between $1500 and $2000 a year against America's $400G-are still 15 to 20 times better off than half the rest of mankind. They, too, must, in fairness and reason, understand the world's fundamental injustice. Nor is this division a static one. The whole thrust of the Synodal document "Justice in the World'" is to try to get across -to the Christian peoples the fact that this fundamental

No Secret

There .is no secret about the reason for this accelerating control. In socialist countries, it is simply assumed that the planners of the economy know best. The growth of industrialization and of the whole dimension of technology simply increases the scale of the thing they think they know best about. The reason is more complicated in market' economies. Where strict laws over campaign expenditures prevail, there is rather more voter control. But the large investments needed for modern technology, the heavy 'Concentrations of ownership in few hands and the ability to manipulate tax loopholes to buy up companies all keep eC,onomic power heavily concentrated. So, in the bishops' words: "Economic injustice and, lack of social participation 'keep a man from attaining his, ba!!ic human and civil fights."

doing in our lives." God's pres'ence is the indisputable fact in Holy Script!lre. To one man he speaks in a still, small whisper; to <y1other he appears in fire; to still another in the stars of the universe. Christ's Presence In the' Christian scripture, his presence is even more manifest: he comes asa· human infant; he speaks with a human voice. He cries over the city he loves; he falls asleep after a day of hard work. He dies the agony of a cruel death, and even after that returns with the centural message: "I am here. I am still with you." To speak, then, of the Word as the norm for Christian life and Christian spirituality is to speak a profound truth. It is to say that in the midst of the ambiguity and the searching and the grey areas of life,' one indisputa1;>le fact remainS-the one fact that "is really necessary if we are to go on, to continue in the midst of suffering. This is that we are not alone; that we are not in the joy and sorrow of life by ourselves. This is the truth that has been recognized by' the greatest saints and poets from the beginning, 'and which"is there·· for us 'to learn if we read -with faith.

RT. REV: MSGIt . JOHN S.

KENNEDY

In that eventful Summer, it looked as if the European phase of World War II could be drawing to a close. In the east, the Russians had turned the tide against the Nazis and were hurling them back. The western AI~ lies, victorious in North Africa, had just conquered Sicily. They might next strike into the Balkans, where the Axis occupation forces were not very formidable. Or they might manage to take Italy out of the war, to Hitler's serious discomfiture. Italy was ready to give up the fight. The Allies seemed poised for an invasion. There was general disilusionment with MussoHni and his alliance with Hitler which had already been so costly for Italy. At least three groups were plotting Mussolini's overthrow. One of these comprised members of the Fascist Grand Council itself. Restrictive Regime Mr. Davis attempts to trace the scheming and the consultations which led to a Fascist Grand Council vote against Mussolini on July 24. The next day he was lured to the residence of King Victor Emmanuel III and, to his astonishment, abrup!ly ar路rested and hurried away, by ambulance, to be held in close confinement. The king put Marshal Pietro Badoglio in charge of the government. This quick change oaused confusion in many quarters. In Rome, for example, there was wild rejoicing. It was supposed that, after 20 years of Fascist dictatorship, freedom and democracy had been restored. Fascist symbols were torn down, party路 buttons thrown away, portllaits of Mussolini pitched out. It was also supposed that, for Italy, the war, with all its privations and griefs, was over. Celebrating crowds poured through the streets, acclaiming peace. But the Badoglio regime was quite as restrictive as Mussolini's. Freedom and democracy had no place in its calculations. Martial law was decreed (as never under Fascism), and a curfew was clamped on the city. Violent repression felled any dissenters. As for the war, Badoglio announced that it would continue, with Italy fulfilling its commitment to the Axis.

else, it seems, except perhaps, the marshal's close relatives). Hitler suspected that Italy would now work a secret deal with the Allies. He ordered more troops into the country, and severely reduced the' shipment of supplies of any kind to the Italians. . . No Clear Pattern Probably it would have required angelic intelligence to perceive just what,at this point, was going on. Mr. Davis, by dint of reading (there is a 16-page bibliography) and of interviews with very many survivors, has pieced together an account of what was happening in various palaces and ministries in Rome. But maybe the correct expression is "juxtaposed," and not "pieced together,'" for no clear pattern emerges. Probably for the very good reason that none existed. Ignominious Pair Badoglio, 72, was at pains to . get in. his siesta and an extended night's sleep, come what might. His next gravest concern appears to have been to payoff personal scores while he had the chance, and then' to save his own neck. He did not govern; he simply let everything slide.' The king, for his part, evidently thought only of his own survival and retention of the throne. A pair not only inglorious but ignominiou~. Lesser lights who had any au. thority at all, worked frantically at cross-purposes. A tragedy of errors was farcically enacted. For example, a number of emissaries were dispatched to the Allies, in an attempt to arrange an armistice on the most favorable terms possible.' But in every case there was inadequate identification, authorization to speak and empowerment to act for the Italian government. In some cases the emissaries were unaware of 路one another's mission, nor, once met, did they manage to exchange .vital information among themselves. Allies Misled This resulted in costly misunderstandings about the approaching Allied landings in Italy. A paratroop drop near Rome might easily have brought ,about Allied capture of the city, the cutting off of Nazi troops south of it, and the prevention of the long, agonizing campaign up the rugged terrain which eventuated. But the Italian emissaries, uninformed or misinformed themselves, gave an entirely different impression, which fatefully misled the Allies. Chaos followed, punishing to everyone except Hitler; Thus, with only 27,000 Nazi troops in the Rome area, outnumbered ,three to one by Italian troops there, he took the city quite easily. The reason was not that the Italian troops. could not or would not. fight. In some instances路 they did so, bravely and effectively.

Mr. & Mrs. H. Ernest Dionne G. Albert Roy Rather, the reason was incompetence or nonfeasance at the higher levels of command. Badoglio hastily fleeing the city, without making provision for civil or military authority in his absence, set the sorry pace. Difficult to Read The Nazis moved with brutal effic;iency. They tricked and sm!!-shed their. way to control, came into possession of enormous quantities of military material, dissolved the Italian army, and imposed a barbarous regime on the people. Mussolini was freed, and Fascism was nominally' reconstituted. In fact, of course, the Nazis ran everything. For some time to come, the Allies were stymiedand the hopes of the italians were in wintry abeyance. This is not an easy book to to read. For one thing there are continual twinges of pain as one has to confront. the needless sufferings of' the Italian people. For another, there is the difficulty of following the dizzy course of events. It is plain that the author is quite out of sympathy with the Church and with the Vatican. Neither fares weli at his hands.

OUR LADY OF FATIMA

Advises·Eci.,tors File' Crank Letters in. Wastebasket

$250 Rev. Arthur C. Levesque

A Catholic editor recently wrote me of' the danger of humor in'the Catholic press-a danger which in all honesty I ·must conf-ess does not seem to be very big. He had reo cejved some letters of complaint about my' praise of, St. Patrick in a recent column One Slavic readeX' was furious and lamented the fact that, at that line-as I guess he had these readers had misunder- every right to be. Anyone who stood my "satire," as he writes must assume that his called it.

clearest expressions will be mis-, understood and distorted, partly because people don't read very: 'carefully, but mostly because they read into a statement that which they want to, find and many human beings are desperately eager to find something about which they ,c.an get mad.' A columnist must resign himself to the fact that most of those who write letters (about 75 per cent are nuts) will have misunderstood him - including, alas, those who claim to agree with him. There is no great problem, par- , ticularly when you assume that those who bother to write a let- ' ter-particularly a "c:rank letter" -are not typical of anyone and are not to be taken seriously.
