CCA tops $2 million!

The Most Reverend Daniel A. Cronin announced today that the 1989 Catholic Charities Ap-

peal had reached the total sum of $2,072,848.33 ...:.. the first time the Appeal had surpassed the $2 million mark. This amounts to an increase of $98,361.48 from 1988.

Bishop Cronin expressed gratitude to the thousands who contributed to the Appeal, which remains the single source of revenue for the various diocesan apostolates and agencies that serve people in the southeastern Massachusetts area. Bishop Cronin likewise thanked the thousands of volunteers who gave of their time in making the person-to-person contacts which have made the Appeal so successful.

"It is obvious;' Bishop Cronin

commented, "that those who assisted this Appeal through their prayers and contributions also benefit from the knowledge that their good works have helped so many of their brothers and sisters. As Christians, that is our call - to be of service to one another. This Appeal is one very important way that we live out that call in this portion of the Lord's vineyard. As St. Francis reminds us - 'It is in giving that we receive.' " Bishop Cronin expressed heartfelt gratitude to Reverend Monsignor Anthony M. Gomes, P.A., the Appeal Director, for his continued hard work and devotion. The bishop also thanked David L. Hautanan, 1989 Diocesan Lay Chairman, for his efforts in insuring the success of the Appeal.

In all, 108 of the 112 diocesan parishes attained Honor ~oll status in surpassing last year's total. St. Pius parish, South Yarmouth, in the Cape Cod and Islands deanery, led the list of parishes in this year's Appeal with a total of $73,660.

From the greater New Bedford area, Our Lady of Mount Carmel, leading in that geographic section, had returns of $41,416.75. Holy Name parish led the Fall River deanery, reporting total gifts of $44, 114.

St. Ann's parish in Raynham led the Taunton area with $24,519.00 being collected, and St. John the Evangelist parish in Attleboro was the leading parish in the Attleboro deanery with contributions totaling $44,046.

THE Al'iCHOR -

.,.

Diocese of FaIl River - Fri., June 9, 1989

the_moori~s.-, Punishing Corporate Crime N ow that some .of the emotional slick has subsided over the Exxon Valdez oil spill, we should be taklng a long, hard and determined look at corporate crime and corresponding punishment.

It is obvious thafthe influence of conservation groups is not effective in bringing c.orporations to justice. Citizens' crusade~ as evidenced by credit card boycotts just don't work. The ,government is simply too oily in its duplicitous dealings with all aspects of big business.

"On the one hand, it assumes a public stance calculated to appease outrage, while on the <?ther it assures corporations they can do business as usual. It seems we are simply unable to deal with profit machines such as Exxon; yet there is a growing public desire to hold-America's great corporations accountable for their actions. .

Impetus for this attitude is being 'generated by some of the nation's most prestigious 'business schools. Harvard Business School's John Matthews, for instance, feels that the best way .to get management's attention is to punish it directly. A number of other business and legal experts second this notion.

They want to look past, simple dollar punishments to more creative penalties such as jail and community service for those who sit in corporate board rooms. Corporate crime, it should be remembered, is committed by pin-striped decisions.

We must realize that corporations are immensely powerful machines. Their lobbying powers in the halls of Congress have been spotlighted by the recent problems offormer Speaker Jim Wright.

A recent national popular poll indicated that 72 percent of Americans believe their elected officials to be'in the pay of big business. Political corruption is now a world issue. The events in China and Russia are evidence that you can fool the people only for a while. Politicians and corporations should be warned that what has happened in those places thought impervious to reform can and shouid happen he're.

This point-. is brought home reflects . ." '. wht;n . ...one , . -, -' th~t two-thirds . of America's largest corporations have·been~rnVolvedat some point in some form of illegal behavior. The scummy wake of the Exxon Valdez has not covered up responsibility but rather has become a catalyst in' creating new interest in cleaning up corporate crime.

We cannot expect that the process of corporate accountabil:ity will be voluntary. The history of capitalism clearly indicates that business reform is never In-house, but must always be imposed. The Band-Aid approach of the l,ast two generations is like treating AIDS with aspirin.

The first step in the journey is to clean house, to get rid of elected officials who double-dip from the nation's pocket under the guise of "employed" wives and family members. The nation will never develop just laws to deal with corporate crime when. the lawmakers themselves are on the take. Reform be-' gins in the halls of government.

Once this impossible dream has been fulfilled, laws and codes must be promulgated and enforced. There must be ultimate penalties for habitual crimes in the corporate world.

Government must ·have the power to dissolve corporations, liquidate their assets and prosecute their management. . Such actions should not be mere tokenism. Businesses like Exxon should never be beyond the law. If they are repeated offenders they should be busted, losing everything down to the last pencil.

In short, we should remember that corporations are run by human beings who must be held accountable for the.ir action.

SEPARATED BY THE NAZIS IN WORLD WAR II, BROTHERS MICHAILO WELYCH OF VIKNO, UKRAINE (LEFT), AND NICHOLAS WELYCH OF SYRACUSE, N.Y., ARE REUNITED AT SYRACUSE AIRPORT AFTER 47 YEARS.

Hard to mix: ethics, business

WASHINGTON (NC) - To be ethical and attempt to follow Catholic social teaching in today's c9rporate world of hostile takeovers and plant closings is to "have a headache," says the co-director of the University of Notre Dame Center for Ethics and Religious Val~es in Business.

The dilemmas facing corporl,\te America are. tougher than ever .before, says John Houck, codirector of the South Bend, Ind., center. And the "bottom-line mentality," he said, is more popular than ever as a result of mergers that create bosses who don't know companies' histories or feel any loyalty toward their employees.

RobertJ. Stanley, president ard chiefexecutive officer of St. Agnes Hospital in White Plains, N.Y., knows the dilemmas.

Stanley said that last year after having been in his position for only nine J!1onths, he was forced to layoff hospital staff.

"The pressure I exerted on myself was perhaps more intense beca\Jse of my Catholic values. It was d~v­ astating to have to come to grips with' the idea that some of my employees would be going home not knowing where their next paychecks were going to come from based on my decision," said Stanley, a member of Legatus, an international group of Catholics who are corporate presidents and CEOs. Legatus, from the Latin for "ambassador," was begun in 1987 by Thomas S. Monaghan, founder of • Domino's Pizza.

In their 1986 pastoral letter on the economy, the U.S. bishops said that "commitment to the public good and not simply the private good of their firms is at the heart of what it means to call their w6rk

. . .•

,a.vocation and not'simply a career or ajob."

B'ut how to be ethical in an increasingly complex and competitive corporate world continues to provoke debate.

William Voute, president and CEO of a New York investment firm, sees no conflict between following Catholic social teaching and making a profit. '''A CEO or any other major officer of a corporation that sets out to do the best for his 'shareholders can't unless he has his people doing the best they can and working at the highest rate of efficiency," said Voute. That doesn't happen, he argues, unless workers feel they have a stake in their company. .

Corporate mergers and hostile takeovers may benefit shareholders, said the bishops in their pastoral letter, yet lead to decreased concern for the well-being of local communities as business decisions are made from afar by CEOs living outside the area.

"On the other side of the coin," Voute claims, "takeovers and mergers can increase efficiency and raise more capital, creating more jobs."

Houck points out that if "I'm a takeover artist and have no relationship with the workers and the research assistants" of a given company that "I see as more valuable broken up into pieces and sold off as subsidiaries," it's a lot easier to "just sit in my office" and make decisions that will disrupt people's lives.

On'the other hand, Houck said, the dilemmas faced by corpor-ate executives aren't often black and white.

"Say you have a plant here in the States with a good work force and a union with a good contract.

You find you have to pay a lower wage to meet the competition.

You close the plant and open a . new one outside Mexico City," he said.

The outcome is negative, he said, in that U.S. workers lose jobs and positive in that Mexican workers find jobs.

If the move is not'required for survival of the firm but merely desirable because of a potential increase in the profit margin, it is an ethical "no-no," said Houck.

If a move is made, he said, an ethical employer "can't rip off the people in Mexico City" by paying them too low wages or ignoring safety concerns even if the Mexican government allows it.

Jesuit Father John C. Haughey, pastor of St. Peter's Parish in Charlotte, N.C., where he ministers to the city's busi~e~s community, advocates "stakeholder management" instead of "stockholder management."

The community, the employees, the suppliers, "everyone who has a stake in the outcome of a decision must be taken into account, not just the shareholders," said the priest.

At the same time he maintains that Christian corporate executives shouldn't "ignore the bottom line and only think about workers." If they did, he says, they'd be in the unemployment lines.

"There's nothing wrong with worrying about profits," the pas- . tor tells those he counsels. "But there is something wrong with worrying about profits alone."

Fr:i., June,9, 1989

By

At a'recent marriage enrichment workshop, a husband made a thoughful comment that affected many there.

"I'm confused about what women want today. I don't want to offend them and I want them to like and admire me but the rules seem to be up In the air. Do you open doors for them or not? Offer to walk them to' the car or not?

Call them by their first name or title? Offer to carry heavy boxes for them or watch them struggle?"

He voiced a familiar dilemma.

At one time we all knew the rules: the man walked near the street, he was last in and out of elevators, and he had the last word on weighty topics.

In any time of changing value and role structures, we experience a period of normlessness. Rules are fuzzy and we long for yes/no and right/wrong answers. Eventually new rules emerge but we're living in that limbo between structures and we often feel that whatever we do is wrong.

It's not that much easier for women. Do we wait for the man to open the door, offer his help, or give the final word? Can we get angry without being labeled radical feminist?

Some women turn every issue

into a gender justice issue but they are the extremes. Most women are DOLORES hoping for some rules sensitive to our gender but not so restrictive CURRAN that men are frightened to aet'for fear of offending. .In the interim between that workshop and now, I asked women to respond to the question, "If I mation of them drops when. they were a man today, how would I use sexist language, they'd take a behave to make women like and course in ridding themselves ofit.

5. I would treat women with the admire me?" Here is what I heard: L I would not tell or laugh at same basic respect as men, not go sexist jokes. And if one is told and over or"underboard. I would listen the women don't laugh, I wouldn't to women as thoughtfully as I do men. I wouldn't interrupt them ifI cha~ge them with being humorless.

2. I would ask a woman if she don't interrupt men. I wouldn't try wanted help rather than assume or , to change the subject to my agenda ignore it. Saying, "Can I help you if I don't do it with men.

6. I would accept that there are with that load?" or, "Would you like me to walk to your car with differences between us but I you?" tells us he cares and gives us wouldn't judge these differences as the opportunity of accepting or . better or worse, just real. If women get tears in their eyes during an rejecting gracefully.

3. I wouldn't turn everything argument, that's okay. They don't into a gender. issue. Some men usually curse or bang their fists on look for the. slightest offense so, the table as some men do.. ' 7. I would understand that wonaturally, they find it. If they don't like women who reduce everything men like men, that they aren't to gender behavior, why do men man-haters, but that sometimes men make it hard to be liked. And do it?

4. I would rid my language of as that women do the same. So we many sexist terms as possible. Men have to let people know when don't realize how it jars us to hear, either gender's behavior gets in the "When God created man " and way of liking them as people.

Because that's what we all are "Once man conquers space " If men only realized how our esti- -people.

TRANS NATIONAL TRAVEL

In' Scandinavia, pope urges' ,return to Christian va;lues With NC News reports On most of his trips abroad, Pope John Paul II is front-page news around the world. This time, as he made a first-ever papal trip to Scandinavia, he took second place to demonstrating Chinese students, the death of the Ayatollah Khomeini, a devastating explosion that killed hundreds aboard two trans-Siberian trains, and Poland's first free election in 40 years.

As he traveled from country to country on the trip which began June I and ends tomorrow, the pope expressed concern over China's bloody repression of student demonstrations, saying" As Christians,we hope that these deaths may serve to bring about new life to that great and beloved country."

He sent condolences to President Ali Khamenei of .ran on the death of the ayatollah. He said he shared "in the mourning of the Iranian nation" and conveyed "warm wishes for the prosperity of its people."

Throughout his journeying in the five Scandinavian nations of Norway, Icelan.d, Finland, Denmark and S'weden, the pope has . . ' . urged. citizens ..to.return to .the • hardy Christian values Of their ancestors.

He presented such a return as an answer to religious indifferc,:nce fOStered by ma]erial well-being and as a stimulus to Christian unity in a 'region in which the . Catholic Church dominated 'religious life fOf centuries,. only to be replaced

The pope's trip allowed him to visit the 'miriiscule and widely scattered Catholic population of Scandinavia, which totals about 200,000 -less than a capacity crowd at the Vatican's St. Peter's Square.

He distributed first communion, administered confirmation and made a special point of singling out refugees and immigrants, the bulk of the region's Catholics.

The Nordic countries, especially Norway and Sweden, have opened their doors to thousands of people from Latin America and central Europe.

MARYKNOLL, NY - Sister M. Louise Galligan (formerly known as Sister Mary de Chantal), a Maryknoll Missionary from Taunton, died on May 19 at 11:45 8.m. of advanced metastatic carcinoma. Tnedeath occurred at Phelps Memorial Hospital in North Tarrytown, NY where Sister Louise had been a patient for several weeks.

She had retired from active work at the Maryknoll Community's Center in 1981 and had been a resident of the Sisters' Nursing Home, Maryknoll, NY, since 1984. She was interred at the Maryknoll cemetery adjacent to the center immediately after the Mass of Christian Burial on May 23.

She was born and grew up in . Taunton, one of six children of Louis and Margaret M. (Shea) Galligan. She graduated from St. Mary's High school, Taunton, in 1918 and worked for two years in a business firm before entering the Maryknoll congregation on Dec. 7,1921.

Her overarching desire was to dedicate her life to the missions in China, but after her initial formation she received an assignment to the Philippines in 1926 and became a pioneer among American Catholic women missionaries in that country.

Sister Louise Galligan was to spend 24 years of her religious life in the Philippines dedicating her educatianal gifts and many related skills to the formation of young women of high school and college age.

In 1941, when the Japaneae allacked Pearl Harbor, all U.S. citizens in territories already under Japanese control were taken into custody. Several thousand U.S. missionaries were put under house arrest and ultimately confined to internment camps until they were liberated by U.S. forces in 1945.

Sister Louis was superior of 40 Maryknoll Sisters interned in the Los Banos Camp during a time when, for four years, they were completely cut off from communi~ cation with friends, relatives or their ·own sisters in other parts of the world.

After repatriation in 1945, she

Typing's too slow I have a friend in her early fifties who is looking for ajob and having a tough time because she doesn't have any skills - switchboard, computer, etc.

The irony is that this woman is incredibly talented in dealing with people. If I had any kind of business that needed someone who can relate to people in need, who is a good listener and peacekeeper, and who can operate efficiently in the _midst of chaos and crisis, I would hire her in a minute. She'd be great in a hospital emergency room.

The problem is that she fails the first test, be it typing, switchboard or computer. The parado~ is that these are skills least appreelSted by :the people being served in medical, social service, insurance, church .and other agencies who work with large numbers of people. .

Patients, ,ustomers, and clIents want someone who wiLl listen 'patiently, help them uDders.tand the maze of confusing regulattons, and sort out their options. My friend, 1'11 call her Colleen, possesses these skills to a degree that humbles me.

She remains calm and empa~ thetic. She gives a caring dimension to whatever she does. People respond to her and trust her.

But she types too slowly.

What does all this say'about the earing dimension of American in-

dustry and institutions? If I managed a corporation, I would look for a Colleen as "Personal and Family Counselor" who could help employees find good day care, .teer addicted employees into programs and listen to employees who are struggling with stressors.

But she types too slowly.

Ob. yes, she has and is taking courses to improve office skills but these aren't her skills. When the cutoff on applications is wordsper-minute, she isn't. even interviewed. Yet a fast typIst may turn off more people in the first week than many businesses attract in a month.

Why are we so blind to peoplegiftedness? Why not hire a fast. typist to use her gifts and a Colleen to use her people-caring gifts? A good institution or business needs both and rarely does one person possess both. Even though I'm a writer, I would never get ajob asa typist. I'm too slow.

Colleen is a college grad who stayed home all these years to rear a family. Now, because of reverses in the economy, she needs a job.

But in the intervening years, she has developed numerous skills like time management, managing large functions, attracting and training volunteers and taking care of people's needs. These are skills she wouldn't possess if she had stayed typing and computing in an office the past thirty years.

By DOLORES CURRAN

It's discouraging for women who have stayed home to try to re-enter the work world only to hear, "Well. you don't have the technology the younger women have." What is technology anyway, and who decided it is the paramount ski1J? Futurists talk about the "High tech, high tOUCh,'" society in which we live. They hold that the more technology we U$e - computers, Walkmen, VCRs - the more isolated we become and the more need we have of human interaction.

Even a whiz kid who can work marvels with a computer for eight hours needs the human touch. He needs a Coneen who knows that computers don't supply the personal interaction he needs the remaining 16 hours of his day.

Colleen will be okay. She'll find something once she speeds up her typing and learn. WordPerfect.

But what a loss it is to the rest of us that she is not valued for what she does so well.

And if anyone in the Denver area wants to hire one dynamite woman, let me know. You deserve each other.

Profession of faith, oatJI published in official periodical VATICAN CITY (NC) - The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith's revision of the profession offaith and new oath of fidelity has been published in the Vatican's official periodical of church legislation.

Some U.S. canon lawyers had said there would be little effort to implement the new oath untjl its publication iIi the official monthly periodical, 路known as the Acta Apostolicae Sedis.

Nuns'standoff with Vatican continues WASHINGTON (NC) - Fora second time the Vatican has ordered four Discalced Carmelite nuns to end their eight-month barricade and cooperate with church officials who offer "the possibility of saving your vocation."

The nuns, protesting what they see as a liberalization of their austere lifestyle, have been barricaded in the infirmary of their New Jersey monastery'since October.

Although the Vatican congregation for religious has declined their appeal, the nuns "are going to remain where they are" and will file an appeal with the Apostolic Signature, the Vatican's highest court, said Betty Sutton, a spokeswoman for dissident nun.s .at the Carmelite monastery in Morristown, N.J. The Vatican COIigregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, in a letter dated May 15 and delivered .to the nuns May 30, confirmed its Feb. 22 decision that all but the oldest protester, who is in her 70s, should leave the monastery. .

Five Carmelites locked them_selves in the infirmary in early October fearing they would be expelled from the monastery because of their objections to changes made in the community's contemplative lifestyle by Mother Theresa ofthe Trinity Hewitt, prioress since 1987.

The changes' included brighter lighting in the chapel, the purchase of a television set and the serving of sweets.

One of the protesters, 28-yearold Nicole Prescott, who was called Sister John of the Cross, left the barricade in March for health reasons. Her temporary vows as a Carmelite had expired, and she is no longer a nun..

The letter affirmed the Vatican's earlier decision that Sisters Teresita Romano and Maria路 Ercohino should "leave the monastery at Morristown and transfer to another monastery which is willing to accept you."

Sister Philomena Kostanowski, because of her "age and state of health," may remain at the monastery if she promises "to obey the legitimate superior."

The temporary vows of 34-yearold Lynn Williams, who was called Sister Bernadette of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, have also expired.

"Considering that the chapter (an official gathering of the community's members) did not admit you to solemn profession - this is the unquestionable right of the community - and because the time for which your profession was made has elapsed, you are obliged to leave the monastery," the letter to Miss Williams said.

Pnp111ar: plety, Romall' styIe

VATICAN CITY (NC) -After centuries ofliving side by side with the Vatican arid its residents; Romans have developed a reputation for irreverence and cyni~ism.

These are the people,' after all, who took the initials "SCV" ("Vatican City Stale") on Vatican license plateS and made them into an 'acronym very loosely. translated as, "If Christ Could See This, You Would Be in Big Trouble." , .But such cyniCism' must share the Roman .soul .with a just as deeply rooted popular piety. This piety survives despite an increasingly secularized society and declining church practice. It can be seen in the marble statues whose feet have been worn away by kisses, the street shrines framed with thank-you notes to the Madonna, the neighborhood processions and feasts.

Since the Second Vatican Council, popular devotions have become an endangered species in many parts of the West, according to Dominican Father Giles Dimock, who teaches liturgy at the Angelicum, one of Rome's pontifical universities.

But not so in Rome, he added, where the people "have not lost that incarnational touch" and have not let the faith become overly abstract or immaterial.

One ubiquitous example is·the 'number of street shrines to Mary'.

Found in the ancient center and the impoverished periphery, the shrines are often adorned, with lights and decorated with fresh flowers. But none may be as venerated as the simple Madonna across from Italy's Ministry of Public Instruction on Viale Trastevere.

Built into a wall that now hides a city sports complex, the shrine - a simple bas relief of a Madonna with hands folded in prayer borders a public sidewalk. Bouquets of sweet williams in tomato jars and daisies in 'Coke bottles adorn the shrine's base, while nearly 150 plaques have been cemented to the wall thanking. Mary for "grazia ricevuta" ("grace received").

As vehicles and pedestrians stream past, Romans stop and pray before the statue, touch the shrine and slip money into a slot labeled "bread for orphans." The plaques - some marble embo~sed in silver letters, others simple tiles - tell'the story of blessings won by the intercession of Mary.

"I thank- you, Immaculate Virgin," reads one. "I prayed with faithandyo.u have helped me." I,t bears the dates February-October, 1978; the nine months suggesting pregnancy: Childbirth is also the special concern of one of Rome's most venerated statues, found in the Church of St. Augustine. There a 16th-century marble rendering of Mary ,and child is known as the Madonna "del parto" ("of birth").

The shrine has long attracted the devotions and requests of women . . . :. and their husbands - seeking a safe birth.

The tradition was born in a time when women and babies often died in labor. That it continues to this day is proven by the dozens of "ex votos" (votive offerings) fastened to the walls surrounding the statue.

Found in 'Pany of Rome's churches, ex votos are stylized hearts embossed with the silver letters "gr" (for "grace received")and encased in plastic. They cost $20-

$35 or more and are tokens' of recall events of the Gospels.

"As the nations come together in consensus and in agreements on copyrights, on patents: and now on semiconductors, each piece, or should.we rather say, each microchip that finds its proper place helps to complete that mosaic."

College life gives you ~Qt.s of time to think. In high school, it's three classes and then lunch, three more classes and then you go home, with no spaces in between.

But in college, you are likely to have one or two free hours between each class, and few days with more than four hours spent in the classroom. This leaves time to study, drink a soda with your friends or just think.

And there is plenty to think which it will. College will enrich ,about. College is a place of ideas,

The postponement followed a recent resolution by the World' Jewish Congress calling on the pope to use his authority to resolve the: lingeringc:onvent controversy' and "assure the removal of the conVent from the grounds of Auschwitz without further delay."

The convent has yet to be moved, despite an agree~e~t reached betwee'n Europe'an Ca'tholic and Jew-, ish representatives in 1987 to relocate it from. the grounds of the Auschwitz extermination camp to a'sitejust.outside the camp grounds',
