"None of you will escape the Dr. Frank J. Ayd of Baltimore, challenge of having to work with people who have mental and emotional and behavioral problems," he said. "You must recognize these people, and at the same time you must recog­ nize your own limitations." Dr. Ayd told the Sisters "we have in the United States a growing problem of emotional and behavioral disturbances among our adolescents." Signs of the problem, he said, include the "increasing number of dropouts in high school and college," and that "more adol­ escents than ever are coming to psychiatry clinics for help." Admissions to psychiatric hos­ pitals show a "great jump" among adolescents, and figures for 1963 showed that in their age group the third leading cause of death was suicide, he said. One of the factors in the grow­ ing number of disturbed young­ sters, according to Dr. Ayd, is the fact that "great demands are placed on young t>eople." "Everybody's got to achieve," he said.

Keating Requests Federal Birth Control Agency ~

Faithful To Make Offerings

To Pope Paul on Sunday

Beloved in Christ, On Sunday next we are called upon to give' tangible

proof of devotion to Pope Paul VI. So doing we continue

an ancient tradition, that bears the name Peter's Pence.

Over the centuries such offerings have been made to sus­

tain the Pope in his many works of charity. Our American

people have always been far in the forefront in loyalty

and devotion to the Holy Father. '

We have been accustomed for years to the idea of

people going to Rome to show reverence and affection for

the Pope. Pope Paul presents to the world an image of the

Good Shepherd visiting his flock and also those not espec­

ially dependent upon him. This we know to be true in his

visits to the Holy Land, to India, and to'nearer areas not

particularly known for their Christian Faith.

There is constant talk of his corning to· our shores.

It is well within the realm of possibility that he may do so

shortly. We also hear rumors of pending visits to Poland

and other countries. No question that the heart of the Holy

Father goes out to one and all and seeks through personal

appeal to advance the cause of peace'and to seek and influ­

ence all men's souls. This was characteristic of his activity

as Archbishop of Milan, where he won the admiration and

affection of our late beloved Pope John.

Whatever we do next Sunday by prayer and personal

offering in Peter's Pence is bound to prove an expression

of our devotion to the Holy Father and a recognition of the

fact that he is indeed "the servant of the servants of God."

He places no stint or limit on his personal response to meet

every demand that presents itself. I am sure there is no . 'one of us but admire the tremendous zeal that has been ':fuanifest these past two years in the pontificate of ou'r

beloved, Pope' P'aul. I am confident that we will join joyfully in giving proof of our affection and of our loyalty to him

through our prayers and our contributions to Peter's' Pence. " Believe" me, with a cordial blessing, Dev"tedly yours in Christ,

Clears Subcommittee House Judiciary Unit Favors Liberalized Immigration Measure

WASHINGTON (NC)-A liberalized immigration measure which would wipe out the controversial national origins quota system has been approved by a House judiciary subcommittee. The subcommittee's 8-to-O vote in favor of the bill broke a three-year deadlock in Congress on immigration legislation. Although the measure still must be approved by the full Judieiary Committee before being reported to the House, it has been given a good chance to become law. In the Senate a subcommittee

to create a Federal bureau of family development and plan­ ning services. Keating, who now heads the newly created Population Crisis Committee, appeared before a government operations subcom­ mittee headed by Sen. Ernest Gruening of Alaska. He said he approved of a bill introduced by Gruening to authorize a White House Conference on population in 1967 because frank and full discussion is needed "on this so­ called politically taboo subject." In his prepared testimony, Keating suggested that a bureau dealing with population prob­ lems be placed in the U. S. Pub­ lic Health Service. He said he opposed making family planning services compulsory, but said the government should be able to offer advice, training and other services.

Three welfare and anti-pover­ ty groups in this area collabo­ rated in blueprinting the experi­ mental program which carries a price tag of $855,042. Spearheading the experiment is Father Francis R. LoBianco, director of a special education program' for the Mount Carmel Guild, welfare agency of the Newark archdiocese. "In the Guild's special edu­ cation program and in our train­ ing and placement service," Fa­ ther LoBianco 'said, "we found many boys and girls who have fairly good social functioning but just don't make it academi­ cally. "They are classed 'retarded' because of their IQ. but theY may not be. It may be simply that they received irreversible damage because of an e a 1'1 Y childhood that was deprived of cultural and social stimuli," he added. Staff of 118 Even before enactment of the Economic Opportunity Act, he asked the Essex County Associ­ ation for Retarded Children to help him work out a program for preventing this kind of "re­ tardation."

United Community Corporation -the city's private anti-poverty agency-came into being it spon­ sored the program and applied for federal funds. As envisioned, the program would embrace 640 N e-w ark youngsters aged three and four, plus a staff of 110 people-teach­ ers, teacher aids, research ana­ lysts, psychologists, social work­ ers and family counselors.

He said this same love "must be the ultimate solution to this grave problem of racial injustice that sears our consciences." "What a sacrilege," he said, "that those of us who participate as a family in the liturgy to­ gether as a sign of unity, who kneel for Communion at the same divine banquet table. should ever refuse to eat at the same restaurant table!"

Imace of Goel He recalled that the tr. S. bishops' 1958 statement affirmed the problem as a moral and gious one. "Every man - whatever his color - is created in the ima~ and likeness of God. He has the sublime dignity of intelligence, of free will, of an immortal soul. He is destined to spend eternity in an unsegregated heaven with God and the saints," the bishop said.

Suggesting "guiding principles for action," Bishop McCarthy said: HAll your activity should be motivated by one dominant, fixed idea-you are giving wit­ ness to the love of Christ which urges you on.

Bishop Riley Offici.ates at Ceremony .of Holy Union Sisters in Concord

By John J. Kane, Ph.D.

"r am 17, a Junior in a Cat.holic high school, receive good grades and participate in extra-curricularaetivities. But my parents will not let me date. 1 was asked on a triple date to a Teen Hop by a Catholic boy. My Dad told him maybe, but next day of our population. said No. I am thinking of Possibility of Vocation entering the convent but I There is also the danger that fear if I do and never have when persons have suffered such

had a date, I'll always feel I missed something. My parents agree to abide by what you say." There are two baSIC problems abo u t dating. Those who date too often and too young; those who don't date at all by the late teens or who are not permitted to date. Your situation falls into the latter category. But let's make certain of what we mean by dating, so that you, your parents and I are talking the same language. By dating I mean associati~n with a person of. the opposite sex for exclu­ sively social reasons, such as a party, a dance or a movie. There is no emotional involvement and it certainly does not extend to aecking or petting. Potential Partners On this basis I believe a 17­ year-old girl should .be permit­ W to date, certainly at least once a week. It is part of the growing up process. It should teach boys and girls how to get along together. For those who will ultimately marry it enables them. to become acquainted with a number of potential future marital partners. Thus they can learn to evaluate boys or girls and hopefully make a more in­ telligent choice of a husband or wife. Your parents have become ex­ aggeratedly concerned abo. t dating. Perhaps this is under­ etandable because some girls .do get into trouble and today it is estimated that in about one­ fourth of the young marriages, the bride is already pregnant. But it is only fair to remem­ ber that the vast majority of boys and girls who date do not get into trouble. It is a vicious libel to project the immorality of some onto all. It also betrays a sense of insecurity on the part of your parents, however well meaning they undoubtedly are. Resent .Growint: Up Double and triple dating are to be encouraged. There is safe­ ty in numbers but not, of course, inevitably so. At any rate they should be willing to give you an opportunity to prove that you are re:"ponsible in this matter. They should not deny you the pleasure of social life which • girl of your age should be en­ joying. Perhaps they do not appreci­ ate the embarrassment it must eause you with your friends when your parents forbid dating. I don't know anything about the Teen Age Hop you mention. Was there some specific parental fear about this dance? Unless they had solid grounds to oppose this particular dance, I fear they erred. Sometimes parents resent chil­ dren's growing up. They attempt to keep them close to home, smother them with affection or bind them with the silver cord. It never works. Some psychia­ trists have pointed out that such individuals never. mature and contribute heavily to the neu­ rotic and maladjusted segments

Holds Tent Revival Fair Attendance, Spirit of Ecumenism

Mark Illinois Diocese Mission

ROCKFORD (NC)-The first tent revival meeting in the Dio­ cese of Rockford had "fair at­ tendance and a great and ob­ vious spirit of ecumenism," according to its chairman, Father ~erman A. Porter. Father Porter, director of the diocesan Catholic Information and Counseling Center, said at­ tendance during the five-day event averaged 100 each night, despite heavy rain on two nights. "We didn't reach as many peo­ ple as we'd hoped," Father Por­

ter said, "but at the same time

we can hope the people who were

there will influence those who

weren't." The' revival was conducted ill the Washington Park area of downtown Rockford, where a survey by two seminarians showed over 100 families with­ out active religious affiliation. "We hoped to acquaint some of these people with some of the facts about the Catholic Faith and to provide a general spirit­ ual uplift of the community," Father Porter explained. Spirit of Charity He said the question and an­ swer periods following talks by diocesan priests gave everyone a chance to ask questions and clear up misconceptions. Some Protestant clergymen were pres­ ent each night, he said, and dis­ cussions were marked by "a real

spirjt of ecumenism." "There was a spirit of Chris­ tian charity and no offense was gi ven or taken by anyone pres­ ent. We also had a lot of help from·a number of young Protes­ tants-including our organist." Father Porter said it was hard to evaluate the accomplishments of the mission-revival.

Pefer's Pence Peter's Pence is the offering annually sent to the Holy Father from his children throughout Christiandom. Among the Anglo Saxons the Peter's Pence goes back to the year '187 and was appointed to be collected and sent to the Pope by St. Peter's Massday-the Feast of St. Peter in Chaine, August 1. Indeed, in 1883, a hoard of small coins was dis­ eovered in Rome near the site of one of the papal palaces, and the coins were dated from the tenth century, the orig­ inal eoins collected in England and sent to Rome. In 1027 King Cnut wrote a remarkable letter from aome to his people in England, expressing his devotion to the Holy See and -enjoining the col­ lection of Peter's Pence. $igt. The Reformation wrecked havoe on the custom of St. Peter's Pence, Ol but-happily-this' has been resur­ rected during the last century. And Sonship since the loss of the Papal States, the Peter's Pence has been a principal source of income for the Holy See. The Peter's Pence is an acknowledgement of spiritual !onship toward the Father of Christiandom. The measure of love and devotion is sacrifice, and the sacrifice of material possessions is accepted by all as a proof of sincerity. An ancient expression- dating from the dawn of Christianity says, "Christ speaks through Peter/'. Christ speaks through the Pope, and what a privilege it is for Catholics to place in the hands of the Pope-the Hands of Christ-the means of charity. The Peter's Pence Collection Sunday is more than the giving of a few dollars. It is the sacrifice of possessions from the motive of loyalty to the Holy See; it is charity toward less fortunate brothers; it is the offering of gifts from the children to the father. ~;.

A saint is one who does the Will of Gi>d and within that there are as many varieties as there are personalities.The coming days in the Church's calendar are indiea- ' tive of that. ' Saturday is the feast of St. Ignatius, the soldiez:-found­ er of the Jesuits. Monday is t,he feast of St. Alphonsus Liguori, the lawyer who established the Congregation of the Redemptor- ' ists. Wednesday is the feast of the Variefy founder of the Dominican Order, St. Dominic. Means These three great religious

founders differed in background, in Hope

personality, in the way they lived

, their early years. But all three reach­ ed a point, early or later in life, where the Will of God was their full concern. And within the framework of differing personalities each became a great religious founder and a saint. It is this beautiful variety among the saints that gives delight and hope to all who would do God's Will. But there is room in the calendar of Saints for all.

Defend Ending Aid to Mexico

WASHINGTON (NC)-Cutting off shipments of free surplua foods to Mexico - in which the distribution program organized through the American Catholic relief organization played the largest role-was neither retal­ iatory nor abrupt, according to government sources he~e. . A spokesman for the Agency for International Development said the termination of Food for Peace shipments to Mexico was mutually agreed on by the Mex- . ican and American governments because Mexico is now produc­ ing grain surpluses at the same, time that U. S. surpluses are be­ ing depleted. He denied published reports to the effect that the U. S. program was stopped in retaliation against Mexico's selling grain to commu­ nist China. Rather, he said, it was in line with procedures be­ ing followed in other countries whose production has come into line with domestic needs, such as Italy. While food shipments were cut . off with the start of the new fis­ cal year on July 1, there are enough American supplies on hand to continue distribution to the needy until early Septem­

They are typified by a confused visitor at F'all River's Holy Name Church who leaned over to her hostess during Mass and sibilantly whispered: "Is this the Catholic church? It's NOTHING like the one I go' to!" She can be comforted. Many priests ad­ mit that they're befuddled too. One out-of-the-diocese

visitor valiantly attempting to say Mass at a church that has thoroughly embraced the New Liturgy and is complete with a people-facing altar was heard to mutter frantically, hal f way through Mass, "What comes next?" . , Another priest is still mur­ muring "Corpus Christi" to com­ municants, which raises a nice point among liturgical sticklers.

Rejects School Tax Appeal ST. PAUL (NC) - The.

Two industries in Cold Spring, Minn., contend that taxes for high SChools leviec'. against their properties by Stearns County are illegal because only two of the 154 high school students in the Cold Spring distriCt attend public schools, both in St. Cloud. The other 152 students attend St. Boniface Catholic High School in Cold Spring. Residents in the Cold Spring district pay a total of $35,195.85 in taxes for high schools.

Summer Tourists Show' Bad Taste in Dress, Manners

WASHINGTON (NC)--Seveftoo ty-eight prospective volunteel'lJ have enrolled in the first session of the newly formed national training center of the Papal Vol­ unteers for Latin America at the Catholic' University of America here. Father Raymond A. Kevane, training program director and PAVLA national director, said the enrollment is 50 per cent big­ ger than originally planned for. "Surely it is a sign of the in­ creasing maturity and sense of responsibility among American Catholics toward the internat­ ional apostolate," he observed. About half of the volunteers are teachers. Among the others are nurses, medical technicians, social workers, engineers, Be­ countants and agronomists. Seminars, group discussions, lectures and academic courSe8 He included in the trainina.

Instead in the anonymity of crowds ("No­ b"dy knows me anyway"), they see others sloppily dressed with an "anything goes" attitude. How to change it, this atti­ tude? Not by edict, certainly.

Nuns Establish House For Delayed Vocations FAIRFIELD (NC)-The Sis­ ters of Notre Dame de Namur will establish a house for delayed vocations to the Sisterhood at their provincial house and DO­ vitiate here in Connecticut. The new foundation, to be known as "Caritas," will be es­ tablished in a wing of the no­ . vitiate. Candidates for the delayed vocations program from all five U.S. provinces of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur will come here to begin their training. Can­ didates will undergo a postu­ lancy of three months before entering the two-year novitiate period, after which they will profess temporary vows. After a period of five years they will profess final vows.

Granted, Washington is hot, humid and uncomfortable in the Summer. Nevertheless, surely a loose cotton sleveless shift and low-heeled shoes for women; eotton trousers and open-throated short-sleeved sports shirts for men would be every bit as cool the outlandish deshabille so · ,larlingly flaunted.

THE ANCHOR-

Thurs.. July 29, 1965

Students Attend C. U: Closses

By Joseph and Marilyn Roderick , It is not uncommon during these hot Summer days to hear my daughter Meryl shouting, "Daddy, mommy, the hummingbirds are on the firecrackers." We have two plants which attract hummingbirds, coral bells and firecrackers. The coral bells are pink and in and out of the oven in 20 min­ we have seven or eight utes, and what one didn't get plants of these bordering the done today one could do tomor­ garden. They 'send up a pro­ row or even the next day. It

Q

fusion of strong, thin stems bear­ ing a number of little bells which the hummingbirds feed on, This is Heuchera, a perennial which grows in light shade as well as in full sun and which thrives in any good garden soil. The firecracker, which is real­ ly Monarda or sometimes called bergamot, 'is an old-fashioned, flower found in many gardens. It is very useful because it too may be grown in partial shade or in full sun and I find that it may be moved at any time, even while in flower, to fill in a spot in the garden which needs color. Monrada is one of the mint fam­ ily and has the square stems as­ sociated with the mints. Mine are red, although they do come in pinks and white. They grow to two feet with an abund­ ance of bloom capping their long, square stems. I prefer the red because they attract the hummingbirds. My real reason for using them 'however, is that the flower blooms when I need it most, right 'after the roses and before the annuals are really producing masses of color. Firecrackers have to be di­ videdperiodically and because they grow so well most garden­ ers just pull up extra stems and throw them in the compost heap. They are normally planted in the Fall but now is the time to ' locate them in a friend's garden' and to dig up a couple of clumps. ~his is one of those flowers which one hates to see people buy since they are so common and since they are normally thrown out by gardeners who have an abundance of them.' They may be transplanted into any garden soil by digging up the shallow 'roots with a trowel. cutting off the foliage and wat­ ering in their new site. They need no special Winter protec­ tion since they are hardy and need no more attention than any other plant in the garden. In the Kitchen Oh! how my heart sighs for Jn7 own native land, Where potatoes, and squashes, and cucumbers grow; Where cheer and good welcome . are always at hand, And custards, and pumpkin pies smoke in a row; And, what is far better, the pot of baked beans. The New England Farmer, 1829 The flavor of early New En­ gland and the cooking that makes up so much of its tradi­ tion can really be savored at Old Sturbridge Village in Stur­ bridge, Mass. There' daily life continues just as it did over one h.mdred years ago. We visited there recently and were trans­ ported back into the early 1800's in a matter of minutes. The kitchen herb gardens, the' au­ thentic utensils of that period and the raws and rows of pre­ serves in a typical home of that era gave. evidence of the im­ portant part cooking played in the people's lives. The center of the house' was the kitchen and good eating was not just a tire­ S"'11e chore but an art practiced judiciously by the New England housewife. The most ~riking feature about this visit to the past was the leisurely pace at which liv­ ing was conducted. Candles weren"t turned out on an assem­ bly line; dinners )Veren't rushed

was quite refreshing to be ex­ posed to this way of life, if only for a few hours! One of the cul­ inary arts practiced, which even today requires a leisurely day is the baking of beans, a sunrise to sunset process. "'he bean was one of the staples of early colonial life, for fresh meat was scarce and ex-. pensive and refrigeration, of even the primitive sort, available only to the rich. One schoolboy, 1" -"ert Forbes, a student at Mil­ ton Academy from 1813 to 1815, wrote that his diet ",,' '. .....oard­ . ing with t' . sexton was "!!imple in the extreme, mO'ch Indian pudding and many pans of baked beans and salt fish and considerable brown bread were consumed, but the butcher's bill was very !'mall." .One reason the beans became such an important part of a New England housewife's Saturday baking was that Sunday was a day of worship and worship alone, with verY little thought given to cooking chores. The delicious baked beans could sim­ mer to their hearts' content on Saturday and all that had to be done to prepare them for the Sabbath meal was to keep them' in a warm oven while the family attended services and afterwards serve them with brown bread and home made piccalilli for all to enjoy. While none of us would desert our freezers, dishwashers and other modern appliances to live as did the ladies of the colonial period, we can still carry on t1.e tradition of good cooking that the Yankee housewife estab­ lished. She did it against tre­ mendous odds while we are aided by every convenience known to modern man.

(If you like .your beans a little mushy, sim­ mer about 1 hour or until the s~ins can be blown off). 3) Drain beans and rinse in. cold water and place about 1" cup in bean pot (these crockery bean pots are inexpensive, I got mine with trading stamps, and make a big difference in the cooking of the beans). 4) Add onion and remaining beans. Score the salt pork to the rind and force down among the beans until it just shows at the top of the pot.

Papal Volunteers Do Field Work In D. C. Area WASHINGTON (NC) The first class at the national training center for Papal Volunteers for Latin Amer­ ica (PAVLA) is doing field work in this area as part of its train­ ing. The 77 volunteers, training at the Catholic University of Amer­ ica to join the 350 volunteers now serving in 13 Latin Amer­ ican countries, are spending their Saturdays ,working on neighborhood projects, teaching ehildren and 'helping aged per~ IOns. Before the training program started, administrators visited organizations 'needing volunteer workers and chose those they felt would provide experiences most applicable to future Latin American assignments. Shortly after training began, each volun­ teer was assigned to the organ:" ization where PAVLA adminis­ trators thought he would learn most. Some volunteers are working at playgrounds teaching children recreation and crafts, some are helping nurses at D. C. General Hospital, others are providing personal services at D. C. Village, a home for the aged, and still others run an athletic program, a sewing class and a Bible school at Christ Child Settlement House. The major aim of the field work, a spokesman said, is to contribute to a greater self­ understanding on the part of the volunteer. Many volunteers in training come from small towns and lack contact with different cultural and social groups, he said, and the field work is de­ signed to help them overcome this.

Schools Set: Goals Through Planning Students, Parents, Faculty Cooperate CHICAGO (NC)-Tl;1e goals of 79 per cent of the Catholic high schools replying to a new survey of Illinois Catholic secondary education are set through coop­ erative planning by students, parents and faculty. This is one of the findings of a study of Catholic high schools in the Chicago archdiocese and the dioceses of Peoria, Spring­ field, Beileville, Rockford, and Joliet. The survey was conducted earlier this year by B. Everard Blanchard, director of educa­ tional field services at· DePaul U n i v e r sit y. Self-evaluation checklists were returned by 44 of 144 high schools in the six dioceses. ' ' In·making public the survey's findings Blanchard said that some 360 teachers and adminis­ trators took part in the study. Noting that 91 per cent of those replying said their schools' goals were "subject to modifica­ tion" to meet changing needs, he said this indicates "flexibility of purposes" and "a willingness to accept constructive criticism." Two Purposes He added that two "general overall purposes" of the schools emerged in the study. They are: "To guide the growth of the stu­

"The Catholic high school is gradually but surely becoming a community-serving age n c y ," Blanchard said. its facilities are being used as a center for com­ munity activities." Other findings of the survey included the following: The schools were "excellent" in the matter of implementing democratic prinCiples in their "administrative, organizational and supervisory. structure." The Catholic high school ad­ ministrator is becoming more democratic in his attitude as he

is realizing the potential power of the thinking of many minds." In-service training for faculty is a possible "weak link" in many Catholic schools'. "The vast majority are still on the periph­ ery of the well-planned in­ service education program."

Missioner Warns Against Neglect Of Deaf Persons PHILADELPHIA (NC)­ A missionary complained here against treating the deaf as "second class Cath­ olics." Father David T. Walsh, C.SS.R., of Detroit, whose fulltime work among the deaf takes him to major centers for the deaf in the U. S. and Canada, asserted that the deaf often are victims of an age of statistics. Here for the 16th annual In­ ternational Catholic Deaf Asso­ ciation convention, Father Walsh said in an interview: "The small number of deaf people often means that they are neglected spiritually. No one is really to b~.ame--they just never get around to the deaf. Since we live in a statistical age, we follow the philosophy of numbers; we use the 'numbers racket.''' Christ's Example Since the deaf are relatively few in numbers, they become "people crying in the wilder­ ness," he said. "Many of them never met a priest who could communicate with them. As a result many dp.af persons have lost the Faith," the Redemptorist said. "We can never measure spir­ itual values by the question, 'How many?' The good Lord al­ ways found time for the indi­ vidual handicapped person-for the blind man, for the deaf man. I am a firm believer that we should go first to those who need us most and the Catholic deaf must feel that they are not alone in the Church." Father Walsh cited several ICDA programs -planned for the coming year: workshops for edu­ cating teacher catechists for the deaf; special catechetical re­ search to prepare religious edu­ cation materials of special value for the deaf; preparation of a "sign lariguage" Mass and spe­ cial forms of liturgical partici­ pation for the' deaf;

Prelate Hits Compromise for Unity Sake Cardinal Heenan Opposes Watering Down Faith AYLESFORD (NC) - John Cardinal Heenan of Westminster . has strongly criticized Catholics whom he sees trying to promote Christian reunion by compro­ mising on doctrine. ' The ranking English prelate said that in "these ecumenical days" Christians were drawing more closely together and dis­ covering the things that united them. "But among those who work .. for Christian unity are to be found certain Catholics who imagine that the way to· achieve . Christian· unity is by watering down the Faith," he commented.· . ''This is a monstrous and untrue doctrine." Cardinal Heenan made his re­ mark"s at a rededication of the Carmelite frhiry church here, an event that brought 15,000 pil­ grims from allover the world. Aylesford was founded by st. Simon Stock in the 13th century. Glories 01 Mar,. "It is quite untrue to suggest

President Receives Connecticut Nuns NORTH GUILFORD (NC) Twelve Dominican nuns from the Monastery of Our Lady of Grace here in Connecticut were received in audience by Presi­ dent and Mrs. Jomo Kenyatta at the State House in Nairobi, Kenya. The nuns, who are founding the first monastery of perpetual adoration in East Africa, were accompanied on the visit by Father Terence O'Shaughnessy, O.P., rector of St.Thomas Aqui­ nas Regional Seminary in Kenya, and Giacomo Campagnola, con­ tractor for the' nuns' new mon­ astery. . Campagnola, a close friend of Kenyatta, persuaded the presi­

It was the first time priests or nuns had been invited to the State House.

"On the contrary, to this shrine many of our separated brethren come, and they share with us a deep love for the mother of God because they see, as. we so clearly see, that it is impossible to love the Son if we ignore the mother," he asserted. The English Carmelites re­ turned to Aylesford in 1949, Two years later the remains of. st.

Cites Layman's Role in Unity ADELAIDE (NC) - Laymen have a definite role to play in restoring the unity of Christians, according to the archbishop of this South Australian city. "We are all conscious by now that one of the chief concerns of the (ecumenical) council is the unity of Christians," Archbishop Beovich said. "We also know that this means traveling a long and different road. The final goal may not be reached in our lifetime, but at least the first steps have been taken." "You, with me, have a definite part to play," he told his l~y: listeners. . "But in interfaith discussion: there are pitfalls," he said. "Ecu­ m~mism can be a temptation as well as a program. It could be a temptation, for instance, for a Catholic to set aside all disputed points, to water down, modify or conceal those teachin'gs of his Church which are not accepted today by separated brethren. "On the other hand, ecumen­ ism will be a valuable program if we recognize the considerable good there is in the churches separated from our own. Then we must present the essential and authentic aspects of Cath­ olic doctrine, leaving aside those non-essential matters on which various opinions may be held," said Archbishop Beovich.

A recent survey among Protestant Churches revealed that an average of 13 cents out of every budget dollar was given to religious works outside the parish. Some Protestant churches gave 50 cents out of every dollar. An Anglican bishop told me that he stopped all building in his diocese for one year and sent the entire building budget to the Missions. One very large Protestant denomination gives a third of its national income to the niissions. Another sect gives $33 per man, woman and child, to their foreign apostolate. One can only admire Protestant missionary spirit and. their sense of stewardship. For Catholics the only staijstic avail­ able is the amount given to mission work. Last year the per capita amount given to the Holy Father for all Missions throughout the world was 31 cents. That is not all that Catholics gave to the Missions, but it is all that was given to the Holy Father's Society for the Propagation of the Faith. But Catholics are becoming more mission-minded. The last session of Vatican U affirmed that each bishop was responsible for the world as well as his own dio­ use. One bishop in the United States sends two per cent of his annual bud­ ~et to The Society for the Propagation of the Faith.

The laity perhaps are doing more than anyone and for· a reason which did not exist In the past.

In Divine Office

VIENNA (NC)-A poll of Be­ Dgious in various Austrian mon­ asteries indicates that 82 per cent favor reduction of the prayer hours of the Divine 'Of~ flee-which priests are obliged to recite daily-from the tradi­ tional eight to two or three­ morning and evening and per~ haps midday. The poll, which asked 24 spe­ cific questions showed that 80 per cent of the monks favor the use of the vernacular instead of Latin in the Office. A total of 70 per cent would like to see se~ lections of modem theological writings replace some of the tra~ ditional pious tracts. As for the readings, 85 per cent held that 'they should be in the vernacular instead of Latin. The Constitution on the Ltt­ lIrgy enacted by the ecumenical eouncil in 1963 provides for re­ visions of the Divine Office, in­ cluding new stress on Lauds 88 the chief morning prayer and oa Vespers as evening prayer. It calls for suppression of the hoUl' of Prime and allows priests who are not obliged to celebrate the Office in choir to choose from one of the daytime hours of Terce, Sext and None instead ot having to recite all three. It also orders a "better'" selec­ tion of theological readings and states that accounts of the lives of the saints "are to accord with the facts of history."

In the field of principles, Chrili­ tian ideas on ownership and work have been forgotten and an ancient pagan concept has been substituted for the.m. ~n the field of economy, there .is poor distribution of wealth, a fact that has established misery as a normal product of modern society and has created in the social field the conflict of classes, rather than the Christian con­ cept of cooperation and har­ mony. In a word: social order requires a thoroughgoing reform and it is the Catholic's duty to fight for it." . In another pastoral letter written in 1946, Bishop Larrain added: "Our message must first of all state that we do not fear any just social reform that may be planned. "Even though the Church con­ siders tradition to be an unex­ pendable element of progress, she does not hold exclusively to the past, nor is she afraid of the natural evolution that is t-aking place." . Chile's Notable Appeal ot 194'7 On January I, 1947, came the notable appeal of the Chilean bishops. "The supreme goal pointed out by the social ency­ clicals," these prelates declared, "is the redemption of the prole­ tariat .and the reform of social life in accoroance with the prin­ ciples of the Gospel. To reach it; thfil Christian concepts of work, capital and ownership must be re-establisl1ed." More recently we find three collective pastoral letters of the Chilean hierarchy, which again, and in very direct language, point out the urgent need for radical changes in the existing social structure. Statement on Rural Workers In March, 1962, the Chilean . bishops spoke· on the condition of rural workers in the country. "The problem lies," this state­ ment explained, "in the imbal­ ance in productive efficiency between the rural sector on the one hand and the industrial sec­ tor and services on the ·other, and in the distance between the way of life of the rural inhabi­ tant and of those livinii"'fn the city, so that those that till the land often feel in an 'nferior condition, as men depressed. It Is truly regrettable that the rural .

'

headlong race for progress, has left him behind." . The document then pointed to the "too marked imbalance, that · cannot continue without becom­ - ing a threat of violent ruptures, between the owner of the larger · part of arable lancl$Jn our coun­ try and the peasant working on them. The former lives in. the city almost the entire year; the lattel' is a foreigner in the city. Progress and comfort are for the first, not for the second." To the Chilean bishops, "con­ ditions that the rural sector finds itself in today urgently demand thorough-going reform Of the · rural structure,''' .. . , The two ends to be pursued - are ."l:l'etter use of· land for the community and a greater share of the peasant faMily in owner­ ship· of the limd' and its yield." ·This double· purpose will im­ · prove man at three levels: a) the physical-bett~r living .condi­ · tions, healthfUl housing; b) the · social-technical anq vocational - education, professional associa­ tioris; ·and c) the moral-educa­ · tion in socilil meaning and re­ · sponsibility in .work. ,Conse­ · quently, Jand reform· must re­ shape those structures, .that, be­ cause of their nature or through · the· evolution of the times, have become unfit to achieve such aims. Christian Social Philosophy In July, 1962, -the Chilean bishops, in another pastoral let­ · ter, noted that man is not an isolated individual.but a social being, for "only in community, in dialogue with other men, can his potentialltiescome to pros­ per." TRey added then: "It is in this spontaneous and consciously ,CQmmunitarian attitude of the true Christian that modern man, individualistic, closed in himself, shall discover. true human : brotherhood and the real mean­ ing of authority." However, their most important statement in this document on social matters touched the coun­ try's fundamental pro b I em: "Without forgetting the urgency of other social and human needs in general, we have wished to put greater stress in one cate­ gory: physical misery, resulting from the non-satisfaction of basic needs." The pastoral letter makes spe­ cial mention of employment op.­ portunities, productive training, commensurate salaries and social compensations. "The Christian,' it reads, "to be truly so, must take a stand regarding these refornis, to be sure that social structures be such that they allow the lower income layers of the population a greater share in the fruits of the productive process. To this end, Christian man must favor the institutions for social revin­ dications and, if necessary, par­ ticipate in the operation of these institutions." In the judgment of the Chilean bishops, Christians must lend their supjort to the. necessary in­ stitutional changes, such as an authentic land· reform, reform of the business enterprise, tax re­ .form, administrative reform and , ,similar functioW' '

On the other hand, the teen­ 1ger, who dares, despite what lis loud-mouthed friends might :ay, to make himself an integral lart of his own home and fam­ ly, is already showing himself nature.

Now this sounds very good in­ deed, but if you check through it carefully, it is just so much froth. None of these items makes sense if th~ teenager is too imma­ ture to foresee their haqnful consequences, or not yet mature enough to perform. the actions he must or should despite the consequences. Take away these two elements, and the four points of "self-reli­ ance" given above are nothing but immature pouting.

Observers here believe the Polish statement amounts to a concession that" negotiations with the Vatican for a concordat rec­ ognizing Poland's claim to terri­ tories taKen from Germany after World War II have failed. Monitored here, the Warsaw broadcast stated: "There are many signs that the Vatican is· giving up its previous concordat policy and will adhere to it only in places such as Italy where conditions make its success pos­ sible. More imd more- high dig­ nitaries of the Catholic Church believe that, although concordats give the Church privileges, they make the Church dependent on a government which is some­ times unfriendly to it." Catholic: Support "In general," said Radio War­ saw, "it does not appear that ·the continuation of the concordat policy will be the main trait of (future) Vatican policy. This policy must be reevaluated in the light of the end of the Con­ stantinian era-the era of tbe union of altar and throne." Some Vatican officials in Rome have not hidden the fact that they are unhappy with the results of an 'agreement drawn up between the Holy See and communist Hungary last year. Despite written promises to the contrary, Hungary has continued to arrest priests and restrict Church activities. Poland's claim to the former territories east of the Oder­ Neisse line has been supported by nearly all Polish Catholics.

made since its founding," •

leader in· the anti-poverty cam­

paign here declared.

John E. Hassan, executive di­

rector of the Cincinnati Com·

munity Action Commission, set

up to channel federal funds to

local projects, told a Society of

St. Vincent de Paul meeting:

"Christianity, based as it is on

the belief in the dignity and

worthwhileness of man, can have

no other position than that of

being opposed to conditions

which degrade a man and his

family."

He said the phrase~ "war on poverty," is "more than another title for the Economic Opportu­ nities Act of 1964." What it describes, he said, is

"the firm resolve this country

has taken to eliminate poverty

,as a condition of existence for

more than 35 million citizens."

"As such," he continued, "the war on poverty includes a wide , range of measures, including the Civil Rights Act, the Voting "Rights Bill, the Secondary and 'Elementary Education Act, ,the Housing Act of 1965, the Social 'Security Amendments of 1965 (better known as Medicare), the Manpower, Development a 'n d Training Act, and many other pieces of legislation which have been passed or are pending." Destroys Jobs Hansan criticized "those who

really believe that the poor are

poor because they want to be,·

and those who "believe that the

poor are bad, and really deserve

as little as necessary to merely

keep them alive."

While "new technology" open.

up new possibilities for creating

wealth, it "opens up fewer pos­

sibilities to share in it, at least

as far as we can presently see,

,'for it destroys significantly mort

johs than it creates," Hansan

said. '

"Our frontiers of opportunity

have ••• closed down, and peo­

ple's positions in poverty have

become fixed··· In a sense.

they have almost become for­

malized, so that you find fam­

ilies living in poverty through

three or even more generatioN!

without the opportunity to break

out," he said.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., July 29,1965

Exceptio"a' Bogs ENJOY DAY CAMP A permanent Day Camp for exceptional boys has resulted from a three-week experiment conducted last year. The Committee of St. Vincent de Paul members which operates the Catholic Boys' Day Camp in West­ port undertook the experiment during the 1964 camp­ ing season and established the permanent Day Camp in 1965. Leo P. Smith is Chairman of the committee. A full camping schedule is followed by the ex­ ceptional boys-swimming, boating, ·fishing, hiking, crafts, basketball, baseball, etc. Each of the activities is tailored to the special needs and ability of the camp­ ers. As an aid in developing muscular coordination and confidence, an elaborate obstacle course has been con­ structed. Special attention and emphasis is placed on swimming instruction for the group. Each morning the boys leave their homes in the Camp busses which they share with the Catholic Boys' Day Camp. At Camp, they attend Mass with the other day campers. Although the program for the exceptional is specialized, the boys come in. frequent contact with the day canipers and the overnight campers at the St. Vincent de Paul Health Camp. John O'Brien, head coun­ sellor for the camp, says that "This ~ssociation has bee" a great education in charity for all of the boys. The day. campers exert themselves to help, be friendly, cooperate • in what is being done for the exceptional boYS.H Joseph Ryan and George Medeiros are in special charge of the exceptional group. They are assisted by Thomas Dunn and David Turcotte. Gerald Hickey is the swimming in­ structor. "Much of the success of this camp, Mr. O'Brien says, "is attributable to the interest and effort of Mr. John Kane. He cannot do enough to help these boys."
