article hi New City magazine published by the Catholic COUll-. ell Working Life; He is chap.. lain of that group and an asso­ ciate editor of, the magazine. . Thousands of persons, includ­ ing mariy priests and nuns, have taken part in repeated demon­ strations here protesting Willis policies which they say contrib­ ute to school segregation. The demonstrators also have been highly critical of Mayor Richard ~. Daley. . Three priests and a Catholie lay leader recently were fined $125 on .charges of disorderly conduct and obstructing traffic during a demonstration June 11. They are appealing their con­ victions. Msgr. Cantwell also referred to the action of a group of priests who issued a sharply worded .reply to a statement by Mayor Daley that communists had taken part in the demonstrations. He said that when clergymen, "acting apparently as citizens," use an expression like "as Cath­ olic priests," their "appeal to their clerical status * * * clearly states that they are not willing to meet in the policital arena as citizens, but that as ministers of God they claim some kind of special value to their moral in,. dignation and/or civic wisdom...· Referring disparagingly to "the trend among clergy to en­ vision themselves as ward' com­ mitteemen," he asked: "When clergy act politically, do they have any right to sanctuary where their judgments are be­ yond question?" Msgr. Cantwell said that "neither the truth, nor good government, nor true religion is served by ciergymeli publicly creating the fiction that the city's mayor is not willing to see the civil rights protestors when such is not the case, or by in­ sulting or belittling gestures such as clergymen offering the mayor something to read." He asked whether it is "fair to make Benqamin Willis the 'enemy,' the 'symbol' and to im­ pute to his making the sinful community habits which all neighborhood forces, not by' any means excluding religions, have created for him."

Montana Pastor. Eager to Send

Swallows Back to Capistrano

BROADUS (NC)-They may want the swallows back in Cap• istrano and a Capuchin pastor plus his flock here-in Montana are iil unanimous agreement lhey can have them. Father Patrick Berther, O.F.M. Cap., pastor of St. David's church here these past 30 years, is about at his wits ends, trying to bring to a successful conclusion Operation Get-the-Swallows-Back.,.to to-Capistrano-or-Anywhere. It seems flocks of cliff swallows decided the eaves of St. David's make a dandy rookery. Father Berther agreed this may be so-but added there should be a limit. He bemoaned: "The sWallows have bull. mud nests all around the church. They're getting to be something of a nuisanCe." " The Capuchin's first step toward getting the swallows back 'to Capistrano was taken personally. In true Franciscan fashion, he directed an investi­ gation which made sure there were no fledglings in the nest.

-then in un-Franciscan fashion he personally and thoroughly hosed down the nests. •For his efforts, he got a soak­ ing from his full beard' down to the bottom hem of his cassock -and before he completely had dried out, the industrious birds had rebuilt their nests. SUggests ChIcken Wire Then the still determined pastor enlisted the services of a group of parish youngsters. They donned bathing sui\s, more thor­ oughly hosed down the nests­ but the result was the same, another rebuilding project. Now Father Berther is listen­ ing to advice dispensers from all sides. He recounted: -"One· ranch­ er said to put up chicken wire. Someone else suggested that mQthballs in each nest would do the trick. I liked the mothball idea, but someone more agile than I will have to climb up the steeple where the nests are most numerous. I'm too old for that and besides that steeple is 50 to 60 feet high." Father Berther doesn't want the idea to get around that he'. vindictive in his battle with the swallows. He said: "We don't have a great variety of birds around- here. A few of them would be nice to have, But not allof these!" , The swallows are still at St. David's. Father Berther hasn't decided yet upon his next step in the campaign against the feathered frustration.

English Jesuits to Close College,

'School for Catholic Gentl'emen'

Commends Parents' Efforts To Provide Good Education

LONDON (NC) - Beaumont College, Jesuit-run preparatory school near Windsor which is one of England's foremost Cath­ olic schools, 1s to be closed witb-" in two years. A Jesuit spokesman here said the century-old institution will be merged with Stonyhurst, Jes­ uit school in Lancashire, with its students being transferred there. The decision to close Beau­ mont was 'taken because of in­ creasing demands on the English Jesuits both at home and abroad, particularly in Rhodesia and British Guiana. In addition, the plan to give university status to the Jesuit seminary at Heythrop requires a reshuffling of Jesuit teaching personnel.

By John J. Kane, Ph.D. "I don't want to appear cynical but as a bachelor of 50 some years I can only sympathize with many of my friends who are fathers and whose sons and daughters grad­ uated this year or last. Some of these men not only paid their children's tuition in the parent, while upset, is eager to regular school year but also provide another chance, if pos­ for Summers because they sible. Some children mature slowly, I.e. they are late "blb,om­ flunked. The kids paid noth­ ing, did next to nothing in col­ lege and now they are loaded with gifts and congratulations. For what?" , If you seri­ ously tried not to be cynical, you failed mis­ erably. But I am not going to pretend there is no truth in what you say. I assume you

think that Com­ mencement Day ought to be "Father's Day" rather than the "graduate's day." To some ex­ tent, of course, you are right. American parents especially in the middle class do a great deal for their children. They also feel a sense of satisfaction when they graduate from high school or college even tnough the financial cost, not to men­ tion the psychic cost, may both have been terrific. Absolutely Essential But if you look at it objective­ ly, I think two facts emerge. First, formal education to the :high school level, and for many even to the college level, is abso­ lutely essential today. Second, parents do want to give their children the best opportunities they can afford. Automation is just about upon us. In a recent book, "The Drop­ out, Causes and Cures" by Rev. Lucius Cervantes, S.J., he quotes the manager of the Missouri Di­ vision of Employment Security: "It is harder to climb out of poverty today than any tiiDe in the nation's history. In the mod­ "ern labor market, an unskilled worker is almost as obsolete as the dinosaur." He also cites a young laborer with a pregnant wife in the heart of the poverty area of downtown St. Louis. Pathetical­ ly this young man remarks, while staring at an eviction no­ tice, that he has looked for work, any kind of work for months. No one, he claims,' wants a man without a high school diploma. He has no idea where he will get a place to live and adds bitterly that no one wants an unem­ ployed father with four children under school age. There is no need to belabor tilis point. It has been made Jnany times and will be made thousands of times again. It is simply the plain, unvarnished and caustic truth. No parent wants to see :his ehildren, especially a son who may ultimately have to support a family, live in dire poverty. The poverty I refer to is not the poverty of detachment from worldly goods. It is the poverty .f slum areas, chronic illness, lack of education for children, indeed even lack of food, cloth­ ing and shelter for a family. Even when a child fails a course or more in school, the

Pope at Villa VATICAN CITY (NC)-Pope Paul VI is spending his vacation at Castel Gandolfo, his, Summer residence 15 miles south-east of Rome in the Alban Hills, where he is resting for the forthcoming session of the Ecumenical Coun­ elL

ers". Given another opportunity, they frequently make it. Our school systems, especially in college, are highly competi­ tive and the answer is not to throw them out immediately. We need a great deal more and better counSeling for these youngsters. Some are placed in the wrong courses, some do waste their time and in their im­ maturity, they do not realize what they are doing to their fu­ tures.

Furthermore, most of us have had our second chance in one way or another. It may not have been in the school. It may have heen on the job, it may have been in marriage. Only the most brazenly rash would refuse this second chance when there is any hope of rehabilitation. Would 'you? Most children are not geniuses but I would not want to base this exclusively on s~hool grades. The late Sir Winston Churchill, reputedly, had a poor school rec­ ord. Yet England today owes her survival in no small measure to this great man. College Degrees This is no" argument that all children should attend college. They shouldn't. Perhaps no one knows this better than any c&­ lege professor with some yean of experience. A college degree today is about as much a social achievement as an intellectual one, and sorry to say, not infrequently more of the former than the latter. It is THE mark of upper middle class status. Some parents push their sons and daughters into college some­ where and somehow regardless of their limited ability and sometimes in spite of an almost complete lack of it. Some col­ leges are bursting at the seams. Others aren't and one can always find some that aren't if he looks long enough, hard enough and far enough. Help With Expenses Finally, you ought to realize that while some parents pick up the entire tab for college, in­ cluding extra Summer schools for flunks, others don't. I know boys and girls too who ,have worked during the Summers, had part time jobs during the school year and have paid all of their tuition, living expenses and even bought their own clothing. There are others who have helped with expenses and bor­ rowed money through govern-' ment loans which they are re­ paying or have repaid out of later earnings. Please don't cher­ ish the ilusion that all students, college or high school, are a group of lazy, ungrateful slobs whose philosophy of life is to take Dad over. Some are. But most that I have known and, I have literally known thousands, are not.

But suppose a father does have such a son or daughter. What has he lost in his sincere efforts to provide an education? Unless he is extravangantly indulgent and encourages such attitudes, he has lost nothing. He had the satisfac­ tion of doing what he bargained to do when he married: "rear children". The reward of doing tIDe'S duty is sufficient in itself.

Modern Sweden 'Mission' Land For Catholics

THE ANCHOR-

Two Colleges "Get Housing Loans

NEW ORLEANS (NC) Sweden isn't exactly one of fibe remote corners of the earth, but it's still "mission" territory as far as the" Catholic Church is concerned. It's the sort of place where a eatholic priests officiates in a Lutheran church at the wedding of a Catholic man and a Luther­ an woman; where a Catholic bishop has no car or washing machine. These are some of the impres­ sions of Catholicism in' Sweden related by Mrs. James Leonhard, a New Orleans native who has Dved in Stockholm for the past thre~ years. Her husband rep­ resents an American business firm there. Before going to Sweden, Mrs. Leonhard said in an interview during a visit home, she and her family tended to take the Faith for granted. Now it's a different _ory. Before 1952 the establishment of Catholic monasteries was for­ bidden in Sweden. Though such legal restrictions have been lifted, the Church has had to start from scratch. And although Sweden's stand­ ard of living is Europe's highest, 90 is its cost of living. Sales taxes, for instance, run to 10 per eent. Unlike the Lutheran Church-the established church in Sweden-the Catholic Church must pay taxes. Mass in Homes Furthermore, the small num­ ber of Catholics in the country makes the financial situation even more difficult. In Mrs. Leonhard's parish, for example, the church is a chapel in a small rented dwelling. The two priests who serve the mission parish live in the same building and do their own cooking and house­ ll!eeping. American-born Bishop John E. Taylor, O.M.I., can't afford a car or washing machine. Two elder­ 1J' German nuns who take care of his housekeeping trudge sev­ eroal blocks with the bishop's laundry. The shortage of Catholic churches in the country explains why a priest had to officate at a marriage in a Lutheran church. In some places Mass has to be said in homes, hotel rooms and even Protestant church halls. Some Catholics drive as far as 60 or 70 miles for Sunday Mass.

WASHINGTON (NC) - La Salle College in Philadelphia has been given a $1.1 million college housing loan for new student housing and lounge fa­ cilities, the Community Facilities Administration here announced. The Christian Brothers' col­ lege plans two new dormitories to accommodate 219 students and four one-story lounges con­ nected with four existing dormi­ tories. The U. S. loan will be augmented by $330,000 of the college's funds in the project. A $2,350,000 college housing loan for a dormitory-dining ad­ dition at Seton Hall University, South Orange, N. J., has been made by the C.F.A. The U. S. loan will be supplemented by $105,000 of the university's funds. The project will provide hous­ ing for 409 men students, dining accommodations for 224 at a seating, and expanded kitchen facilities to serve 440 students. The university is conducted by the Newark archdiocese.

The Menace

Pass

About fifteen years ago the great Cardinal Suhard

of Paris wrote that the heresy of this age would be the heresy of atheism-men not only refusing to believe in God but not much caring whether God existed or not. He reasoned that the search of man for material well-being and even the progress of his mind would turn man into a self-centered being with little or no concern for God and the hereafter. Man would be so caught up in· his own condition and progress on this earth and in this life, that

he would have little or no time or inclination to consider

the life to come and his progress toward that. This has come to pass. .

It is all very well for the well-known J. B. Priestley

to counter the statement that God does not exist with the quip: "God can stand being told by Prfessor Ayer and Marghanita Laski that He doesn't exist." But a quip is )lot enough. So serious does the Holy Father consider the heresy of atheism that he has appointed a group to make a study of atheism and to establish a dialogue with atheists. While men are bemoaning the fact that the world is not Chris­ tian, the realization is beginning to dawn that it is perhaps DOt even theistic.

Man should be concerned with himself and his pro­ gress. But only in a framework that sees him as a creature of God, made by God for God, destined one day to be with God-or eternally separated from Him.

This will not make man any less zealous for justice and the well-being of himself and his neighbor. But it will place these legitimate strivings in the proper frame of reference.

FaUreI' Karl Rahner, S.J., one of the world's leading Catholic theologians, recently voiced doubts about the "mQral implications" of the race to the moon. In an inter­ view with Father Eugene Bianchi, S.J., published in the Jesuit weekly, America, he reasoning.

GuiUon said that- the great modern danger is not so mum a decrease in the number CIlf priests in relation to the pop.. ulation as the appearance of • new kind of man-lithe techni­ cian - knowledgeable, criticaJ, rationalistic, atheistic." He continuel: "It is necessal'Y to reevangelize these men who

have heard the Gospel and re­

jected it. Such men threaten to spread over the face of the earth and create a cultivation without God. If the Church wants to faee up to'this situation it is neces­ sary to mobilize all her sons and give them a new education." . "The c 0 u n e i I is oriented' towards an original and brilliant conception of the layman, He is not an officer of the rear guard; he belongs to another army. His role is not that of a priest's as­ sistant. He has an.other mission which is different from that of the priest. He is a competent man who has a profession and a family. He is involved in the social and civic structures of the world, and he enjoys it. His task is the Christian penetration of this word, and he alone can bring this about. Two Functions "I see two .functions in the Church. One is the vertical, me­ «'Hating priestly function. The priest takes the world in his hands and carries it like a host to God. The other is horizontal: the man among men. The layman prevents ·modern man from be­ ing 'an atheist. He doesn't lose his soul in the world; he takes the world and gives it a soul. "In my opinion the priest di­ minishes himself when he en­ gages in temporal activity. The laymen diminishes himself when he regards himself as a clandes­ tine priest. Christ was priest and.prophet at one and the same time. The priest imitates his priestly aspect, the laymen his prophetic aspect." ' "The wise layman must go forward. He must not always ask for permission, but occasionally accept the risk of being wrong. Without this risk there is no sacrifice. If there is conflict be­ tween the layman and authority, it is he who will have to give in. In the Catholic Church it is the prophet who obeys the priest."

Biography of de Foucauld Fascinating, Exasperating

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen, D.D.

WhY' Is It that those who have, Ain their money to institutlollll that already have much, while those who have-not, eive their money to the poorf With what eaSe institutions which already have milUons receive dfls of a hun­ dred thousand and honor each giver! But our poor missionaries and the sick in the slum streets of Hone Kong and Calcutta have to rely upon the self-denial of good souls who write letters Uke the following: "Dear Bishop Sheen, I have just finished reaclfnc your little MISSION booklet. I am a widow with heaps of worries. Most 'of them center around three sons who drink heavily, have bad tempers and curse. Two of them don't attend Mass anymore so you know they don't receive the Sacramen~ These two keep company with divorced. women.

God bless you."

By Rt. Rev~ Msgr. John S. Kennedy Charles de Foucauld, dead. almost 50 years, is one of the most interesting and important figures of our century.

Perhaps those Who have (I mean the rich who have great in­ vestments) would like to join the ranks of those who give to the have-nots. For if you give to those who ~an give to you in return you already have received your reward. But if you' give to the poor, the Lord Himself must repay you since the poor cannot. This is the spirit in which so many older people send us sacrifices from their pension checks; so many children give carnivals; puppet shows .and plays to raise money for the poor; so many ordinary, everyday deny themselves the luxury of the unnecessary to buy the necessary for their dying brothers in mission landa. Will you join them? God Love You.

Says Catholic Church in America Has Sense o·f ResponsibiIity MUNICH (NC)-Both "a true sense of Christian responsibil­ ity" and "a realization of the necessity of the freedom of the children of God" are alive in the Catholic Church in the United States, according to Father Ber­ nard Haering, c.ss.a The German-born theologian, who has lectured at American Catholic institutions for the past three Summers, said he is par­ ticularly impressed by the gen­ eral willingness of the U. S. clergy and laity to implement the decisions of the Second Vat­ ican CounCil. He said this is par­ ticularly true of women Reli­ gious. Writing in Klerusblaft, Mu­ nich Catholic periodical, Father Haering held that American Catholic priests are "just as well . educated as their counterparts in Europe." "On the average, the American secular clergy and students of theology have a greater aptitude for free discussion of theological problems and are better pre­ pared for true dialogue than we

House of Representatives Votes To 'End Union Shop Restriction WASHINGTON (NC) - The House of Representatives has voted to strike down that section of the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947 which allows individual states to outlaw union shops. The proposal to repeal the 80called "right to work" clause, long a subject of debate among American Catholics passed the House by a vote of 221 to 203 after Democratic forces acceptelJ procedural rules that impeded Republican efforts to amend the bill. A similar bill designed to repeal section 14-B of the 1947 law has been introduced in the Senate. It appears unlikely however the Senate will act'on the mea~ure this year. \ At the pres~nt ti~e there are 19 states ~Ith rlght-to-work laws on theIr books.

SAN FRANCISCO (NC) -Dealing with labOr unions is the "toughest problem" faced by the Fair Employ­

.From "The Church in the New Latin America" Edited by John J. Considine, M.M. Let us make clear that the Church in Latin America at the present time is not content with mere preaching of the need and of the urgency of social reforms. In many eases she has sought to guide the faithful by providing a a living example of how these Sunday, a figure that drops to a reforms may become a real. low of 0.5% in some marginal ity. settlements. In Cuzco, Peru, the Arch­ 'Christian Revolution' bishop has refused offers made to him by landowners in the area to buy the Church-owned land reserved for land reform and has de­ clared: "The land will be­ long to th e peasants who live and work on properties of the Church as soon as it be­ comes scientif­ ically possible, for it is not enough to know the social doc­ trine of the Church. It is also Imperative that it be put into practice. The Archbishop of Medellin, Colombia, gave all his belong­ ings to its workers and peasants and set up quarters in a work­ er's neighborhood, launching a great social crusade which he named "Revolution of the Holy Cross." During a workers' meeting, he said: "We live in a time when it is necessljry to make progress at faster rates and with greater generosity, for it is a Holy Rev­ olution against the revolution of paganism; every minute is de­ cisive. ''There is· nothinginore deep­ ly revolutionary than: the Gos­ pel. In it we find the essence of every noble· transformation and of all true 'change so badly needed by the world." Church Inspiring Force In Chile it may be said that the Church has become the in­ spiring force of a true social democratic revolution, the only one, which, while respecting the freedom of man, can oppose the advances of Marxism. Her work has also been extended to the direct or indirect promotion of operational models for reform, and the results obtained are proving their feasibility. To attain the present position where sJIch magnificent work of dissemination and of s~ial pro­ motion is being done, the Church, sometimes paiiifully, has had to adapt hel' activities and make her structure al;iequate to the needs of the new Chilean .ociety moving ·from a' predom­ Inately rural condition to an urban one (today only 30% of the population lives on farms), and from a monolithic culture of a paternalistic nature to a new one where a number of diverg­ ing values coexist in a pluralistic society. It is true that according to the last census taken, 85 % of the population claims to be Catholic, but when these indica­ tors are compared with true par­ ticipation of the people in the Church, one finds a relative lack of penetration. Thus, for instance, an average of not more than 10% of all Chileans go to Mass every

Quite understandably, there is a difference of opinion among Latin American bishops' and Catholic leaders generally re­ garding the use of the term "Christian Revolution." It is used without hesitation in Chile while in other countries it is frowned on because it smacks t.->o much of the Communist call for bellicose, if not violent, ac­ tion. From Cardinal Cushing of Boston we have a summary of the position of the Chilean group under the leadership of Cardinal Silva: Late in 1962, Mensaje, a Cath­ olic magazine' of thought in Chile, .published a special issue entitled "Revolution in Latin America-the Christian Vision." Late in 1963 this same magazine published a similar issue of 200 pages, this time called "Revolu­ tionary Reforms in Latin Amer­ ica." The group of talented priests and laymen responsible for these studies on present conditions throughout the Latin American world are encouraged in their work by Chile's great Church leader. His Eminence Cardinal Raul Silva, Archbishop of San­ tiago. These people are driven by the strong conviction that they speak quite literally when they talk of a revolution. "We witnes~i,"this group tenS us (and there are many other able groups throughout Latin America who say the same), "an ever-growing mass of Latin Americans becoming conscious of its misery, conscious of the in­ justice of so much that in the name of the existing political. juridicial, social and economic order' they are obligated to ac­ cept. It is clear that this huge majority is determined not to accept this situation any longer. They call for a rapid and arad­ ical change." "And hence," this Catholic group declares, "we asset:t that a social revolution in Latin America is already on the march. Further, it appears' to us. that the most appropriate, attitude for the Latin American Christian is not to close his eyes to thelob­ vious but to confront the facts sqaurely and search for ways to 'Christianize' t his revolution which advances with compelling inevitability." There may be many good peo­ ple in Latin America who do not accept this point of view. It frightens some, it angers others. This Santiago group is aware of this difference of outlook on the part of some and strives vigor­ ously to explain its· position.

Consider Merger Newman Apostolate, Catholic Students' Federation' to Discuss Proposal WASHINGTON (NC) - The two major Catholic college stu­ dent groups in the United States are considering a merger, it was disclosed here. . The National Newman Apos­ tolate and the National Federa­ tion of Catholic College Students will consider a proposal to launch a three-year study of such a merger at their national conventions this year. The New­ man Apostolate meets in New York Aug. 30 to Sept. 4, and the NFCCS will meet here Aug. 29 to Sept. 5. Msgr. Frederick Stevenson, di,:" rector of the Youth Department of the National Catholic Welfare Conference, said the merger is still' .-in the discussion stage."

Association Tours College for Deaf

Both groups are sections of the Youth Department. Msgr. Stevenson said the pri­ mary reason for consideration of the merger is to create "one Catholic student voice in the lay apostolate" in the U. S. Another reason. he said, is elimination of duplication of effort. "As student organizations., both are involved in the social action work and the education work of the Church," he said. "Both are in the same student apostolate. In international di­ mensions, both are affiliates of Pax Romana (international stu­ . dent organization). By merging, - they would be able to streamline . the financing by getting the . moneys of both groups and re­ ducing the national office staffs. Lawrence Cardinal Shehan of Baltimore will deliver the key­ note address at the NFCCS con­ vention here.

WASHINGTON (NC)":-' More than 300 persons attending the 24th convention of the Ladies' Catholic Benevolent Association took a tour of Gallaudet College here, the world's only college for the deaf. Miss Bertha LeaVy, LCBA su~ preme president, said she arran­ ged the tour to simulate greater interest in those with hearing problems, to demonstrate the in­ struction of the deaf on the col­ lege level and to show what • deaf college student can accom­ plish.

ment Practices Commission, 8 representative of that group said here. Difficulties stem from discrim­ inatory membership policies still practiced by some unions, Dan Panger told the Catholic Inter­ racial Council. Panger was' reporting on an in­ vestigation being conducted by the FEPC into. alleged .discrim­ inatory practices by seven local unions. The investigation was requested by the CIe, which charged that the seven unions have "stubbornly refused to take any meaningful action to elim­ inate racial discrimination." Panger said unions discrlmin­ ate by using different screening tests for Negroes and by means of the ":father-son" traditio'1., which permits only relatives of current members, all of whom are white, to join. He said some of these. unions a,dmit Negroes, but they are us­ ually self-employed and admit­ ted by the union to ~ilize wages and to get their dues. The other members of the union are usually non-Negro, he said. Panger asked the CIC to help seek out qualified Negroes who could join unions. '''We believe there are a number of Negro craftsmen floating around the Bay area, technicians who have learned their skills in the South. overseas or in general ways. We don't know how many exist and until we can identify these peo­ ple we are somewhat stymied when a union says it would open its doors to a qualified Negro," he said.

Parish Summer Program Helps College-Bound· NEWARK (NC)-Among Summer educational pro- . grams in this area is one aimed at the better student living.in an inner-city environ­ ment not conducive to learning. Dubbed Higher Achievement, it is being conducted by Jesuits. it finds 22 boys - high school juniors and seniors and recent graduates, all recommended by their counselors--attending spec­ ial classes at the parish daily. Aim of the program is to gear the youngsters to college life and w strengthen basic skills. The program, pioneered at St. Peter's Prep in nearby Jersey City, opened July 6 and continues through Aug. 13, with follow-up sessions scheduled after that. Visit Homes Father William Pickett, 8 ..1., is directing the project, aided by a priest and four seminarians. Areas of study include reading for speed and comprehension; literature; mathematics;· speech and composition-the youngsters write at least one composition a day. Aside from classroom, work, the boys are helped with plans lor college and are advised on available financial assistance. Because continuance in college is linked with homelife, a staff member visits the home of each boy to talk to the parents A major problem with young­ sters from inner-city areas is that they "do not expect too much of themselves because n'.>t too much has been expected of them by their teachers, some­ times by their parents, and their peers;" Father Pickett s!li«;l. But at Queen of Angels, he said, "we do expect a lot of them. It's a· long day. They have to sacri­ fice a lot to come here."

French Priests Ask For Annual Salary PARIS (NC)-A conference of French rural Catholic Action chaplains meeting here has sug­ gested that all diocesan priests be paid a basic annual wage to save them from "compromising their dignity and liberty by beg­ ging." The suggestion was one of sev­ eral approved at the clergy meeting. Another was critical of methods of seminary training, and a third suggested sweeping changes in the structure of the French Church. In a report on the material life of the priest, the' chaplains de­ clared that the Church could no longer consider itself exempt fro mthe rules of proper man­ agement. They said payment of a basic salary to all diocesan clergy would be· one of the first ways of bringing it into line with the rest of the world.

Discuss Development of Future Relations With Presbyterians WASHINGTON (NC)-Clergy and laity representing the Ro­ man Catholic Church and the United Presbyterian Church in the U. S.A. held a day-long pre­ liminary meeting here to discuss "the development of future re­ lations." The meeting, at the George~ town Presbyterian c h u r c h marked the third time in five weeks that a group appointed by the U. S. Catholic Bishops' Commission for Ecumenical Af­ fairs has met with official dele­ gations from other churches. Catholic delegations met in Washington with representatives of the Episcopal Church on June 22, and with a Lutheran delega­ tion in Baltimore July 6-7; This first national-level en­ counter between Catholics and representatives of the United Presbyterian Church - w h i c h with 3.3 million members is the largest Presbyterian church in the U. S. - included among its participants three women-two Presbyterians and one Catholic. The Catholic group was head­ ed by Bishop Ernest L. Unter­ koefler of Charleston, S. C., who heads the bishops' subcommis­ sion for talks with Presbyterians. The United Presbyterian dele-' gation was led by Richard L. Davies, layman who is chairman 'of his church's Committee for Ecumenical Relations and also head of a Washington firm of management consultants.

Trappists Decide On Updating CITEAUX (NC) - Twenty­ seven Trappist abbots from all parts of the world have taken steps to modify some ways of life in their order which was founded here in France nine centuries ago. The principal effect of the de­ cisions appears to give local ab­ bots more authority regarding ways of adapting the severely isolated life of· Trappist monks to the demands of modern times. The abbots also gave more dignity and authority to·Broth­ ers. Henceforth, Brothers are to wear the same habit as other monks, will have a vote in the election of abbots and will be able to form their own commu­ nities with only a few priest members. It was decided at the meeting here to ask the Holy See for permission for monks to chant their office in the vernacular. The abbots met under the leadership of their abbot gen­ 'eral, A b bot Ignace Gillet, O.S.C.O. More properly known as the Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance, the Trappists were founded at Citeaux in the llth century to restore observ­ ance of the rule of St. Benedict. There are 4,200 Trappists in the world, including 918 in the United States.

Congolese Bishops To Open College LEOPOLDVILLE (NC) - The bishops' conference of the prov­ ince of Stanleyville is establish­ ing an interdiocesan college so that students who fled rebel­ held territories can continue their education. The new college will open in Bumba in the diocese of Lisala and will take high school stu­ dents from the diocese of Buta, Bondo, Doruma and Niangara.

en; Mrs. Walter R. Clyde ftf Pittsburgh, ecumenical relations chairman for the United Presby­ terian Women; Dr. Margaret Shannon, New York, associate general secretary of the United Presbyterian Church's Commis­ sion for Ecumenical Mission and Relations. The way for the talks was paved on the Catholic side by the Decree on Ecumenism en­ acted .by the Second Vatican Council last November, and on the Presbyterian side by a policy statement adopted by the Gen­ eral Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church in Colum­ bus, Ohio, last May. The latter called on Presbyte­ rians to enter into closer associa­ tion with Roman Catholics so "that God's will for His Church may be sought together." It said also that "the most en­ during and meaningful sharing of insight and experience must take place where people meet people, where Roman Catholics and Protestants bound in mutual citizenship and community con­ cerns have too often been strangers. to each other's faith."

Eleven Relatives To Concelebrate . CINCINNATI (NC) - When Fat her Bernardin Schneider, O.F.M., isn't coping with the complications of translating the Bible into Japanese, he may be sorting out the complications of his family relationships. That's no easy task for a man who has three brothers, three uncles and a cousin who are Franciscan priests, plus three other priest-cousins. Father Schneider was at Franciscan provincial headquar­ ters here to visit his brother Fat her Aquinas, Schneider, O.F.M., secretary of the province. He is director of the Francisco­ kai Seisho Kenkyusho (Francis­ can Bible Study Center) in Tokyo and is in charge of the project for a new Japanese Bible. The family is looking forward to a reunion in Louisville, where Father Schneider's mother, Mrs. Anna Schneider, still resides. A highlight will be a concelebrated Mass offered by the 11 priests of the clan.

Honor Pei ra Iyzed Catholic Priest WASHINGTON (NC) A Catholic priest who is paralyzed in both legs will be honored as veteran of the week by the Vet­ erans Administration during the first week of August, a period. that marks the 20th anniversary of the creation of the VA Chap­ lain Service oa a national basis. Father James F. Foley, once a chaplain with the Marines on Okinawa, now serves as part­ time chaplain at the VA w . • in East Orange, N. J., althougo. he is compelled to offer Mass and make bedside 'visits in • wheelchair. "I am in a good position to help," said Father Foley. "I see men who will never walk again. Understandably, many of them _are embittered. When they see me in my wheelchair, they relax: a little as we talk. Honoring the 752 chaplains who make up the VA chaplain service, the adminis'trator of vet­ erans affairs, William J. Drfver, stated in Washington he had no doubt that "many many veterana owe their recovery to the spir­ itual support given through the dedicated men of God who COIQ­ pose our chaplaill service."

Life's Inconveniences Lead To Greatest Final Reward

Thurs., Aug. 5, 1965

Pope Peul Urges Spanish Promote Social Justice

By Joseph T. McGloin, S.J. I think :It was in "Annie Get Your Gun" that an Indian Chief was griping about his land, stating, quite truthfully, that "you couldn't grow cattle on it." And when asked why this was, he grunted, "Too much oil." Naturally, this struck tbe audience as hilarious ­ a good "adult" exaDlple of this someone griping about a -where Dlan's final purpose is trifle when he had a black­ cODlpletely forgotten, and only gold mine all his own. But his present comfort or conven­ there's an even funnier situation along this same line-except that it's so pathetic it isn't really funny at all. And that's the way we Catho­ lics tend either to gripe about trifles connected with the practice of our faith, or else to concen­ trate our lives on a series of "Don't's," end­ lessly discussing and distinguish­ ing whether they really should be "Don't's" or not. And this, as anyone can see who looks at it even superficially, is a pretty stupid way to waste a lifetiDle -griping that we can't feed eattle when there's an infinite supply of oil there ror the strik­ ing. There are a lot of very funny Jokes about hypochondriacs, who spend so Dluch time staving off death in their eonstant battle against iDlaginary afflictions that they never have the time or Dlentality to really live. All they do, at best, is keep from dying. Earth-Shaking Questions But the hypochondriac isn't nearly as weird as the Catholic who spends his Catholic life stewing and arguing about the "'Don't's" when he cOilld be liv­ ing a thrilling and happy life instead. A priest often encounters some earth-shaking questions indeed, such as, "Is it wrong to kiss a boy?" or ':Is necking wrong?" or "What's wrong with petting?­ Now I don't mean to belittle these questions at all. They and their answers are important, because it is iDlportant to estab­ lish a right conscience, and to know what is right and wrong and why. It is far more impor­ tant, however, to realize why we ask the questions, and wby they are important. Grand Scheme of Faith' All too often such questions are asked only with the hope that some new distinction will be brought up which will Dlake tbe things we want to do, how­ ever dangerous (such as neck­ ing), or sinful in itself (such a. petting), permissible. But the truth' is that such questions cannot be asked, and certainly cannot be answered, without at least the implicit un­ derstanding of the whole grand scheDle of our faith. No one can answer such ques­ tions accurately apart from the treDlendous fact that God started us out and is waiting for us, and that He expects certain things from us if we are to fulfill our very purpose. Purpose Forrotten And yet, like children, we want to disregard God .when there is something dangerous or sinful which we really want to do. The late or current propa­ Janda wave on contraception is

ience is considered; where noth­ ing is said of the fact that Dlan is here on earth, in the first and last place, to be tested, and not to enjoy heaven on earth; where no note is Dlade of the fact that we are to get to God by faith and trust in Him and. not by rationalizing our way out of the only real difficulties we encoun­ ter in life. It is an attempt to choose our own crosses - nice, padded crosses at that-and call this the "test" whereby we work our way to God. And ~his is about as log­ ical as having each student com­ pose the test he wants to pass for himself. Distraeting Details SODletimes you'll hear a Cath­ olic come up with a stupid blooper like, "I have to go to Mass on Sunday," thereby show­ ing his complete ignorance of what the Mass is and what an incredible privilege is his when he is allowed to go to Mass. It's amazing. We're amazjng. We can concentrate on the tin­ iest, DlOSt distracting little de­ tails even in the face of a glo­ rious eternal destiny. We can 'gripe about the tiniest of incon­ veniences (though no one's "in_ conveniences" or sufferings are really tiny to himself) in the face of the greatest possible ulti­ Dlate reward, and this even when we have been told by God Himself that these very nui­ sances are the means to that re­ ward. You don't hear anybody grip­ ing that the sweepstakes ticket which won him $100,000 cost him a whole dollar. But if that would be silly, think how ridiculous it is to gripe about the cost of our ticket to heaven. Spiritual Life Open Fortunately, for us, God is not only the infinitely perfect and wonderful Being we know Him to be, but He is also our father. He not only made us, in an act of the purest, most unselfish love, but He can even smile at us, like an indulgent father, when we conce.rn ourselves with trifles instead of the great things within our grasp. Most people have enough good sense not to be hypochondriacs, to live rather than just trying to keep frODl dying. With a little faith, we can keep from being spiritual hypochondriacs, too, or moral rationalizers. A tremen­ dous spiritual life is open to us, a share in God's KingdoDl right now. Let's not waste the opportu­ nity by taking spiritual pills aU our lives or, worse, refusing to reDlind ourselves that we do have such a tremendous spiritual opportunity. One thing's for sure -you'll never enjoy and profit froDl life as God intended if you blow the whole thing on nega­ tives and trifles.

current holy year should spur them to active charity and social justice. The Church's social teachings, said the Pope, give orientation and substance for "ardent aspir­ ations which at times are impa­ tient and disorderly." Pope Paul made his televised address from Castel Gandolfo, his Summer residence in Italy. It was heard and seen through­ out Spain by Catholics celebrat­ ing the holy year of St. James the Apostle, the patron of Spain whose relics in this city made it a famed pilgrimage center in the Middle Ages. Spirit of Pilgrim Remarking on the popularity of Santiago during the Middle Ages, Pope Paul said' pilgrims came here "to confess the faith handed down by the apostles and to obtain the grace of forgive­ ness through penance and sacri­ fice." "Therefore," he said, "the Spanish Catholic, with the spirit of a pilgrim, keeps his soul in grace and does not forget te Dlobilize and center all his vital activity around the Christian ideal of orienting himself and hi. surrounding to Christ." After recalling the network of hospices and bridges erected ia the Middle Ages to help pilgrims on their way here, Pope Paul continued: "The Santiago pilgrim feels spurred to apply Christian prin­ ciples to soci~l life, and thus he studies and works for the real­ ization of the aspirations pro­ claimed in the papal encyclical. and in' the Church's teaching."

Cubans Tutn to Church For Consolation MEXICO CITY (NC) ­ Facing the increasing harsh­ ness of dictatorial rule, more and more Cubans are turn­ ing to religion for consolation. This was reported here by a high official of Mexico's foreign affairs ministry on his return £Com a visit to Havana. The official, who asked tha~ h,is name be withheld, said that because the Church is staying out of political matters, it is pos­ sible for-_ a growing number of Cuban Catholics to go to church and find relief from their un­ happiness in prayer. The official, who has made a number of trips to Cuba since the regime of Premier Fidel Ca.stro came to power in 1959, ~ laid there is less evidence of police controls now than in for­ mer years but that the police­ state is assuming more power than ever. "There are no patrols in the streets. Barricades have disap-­ peared. Public buildings may be entered freely," he said. But "tremendously effe~;ive police eontrols exist silently," he added. "Vigilance is systematically eJl:ercised over the entire popu­ lation through cells in every block in every district of the city, in every city of the country. N9 one may visit a friend with­ out the district chief learning about it. No one can remain for long in someone else's house without being questioned." Economic Problems -Castro, the official reported, i. more politically dominant than ever. He added that long-time members of the Communist party "have not acquired greater power, but at times have lost power. None of the leaders of the communist United Party of the Socialist Revolution has a key post in the government." The chief problems of the Cas,tro regime are economic, the official stated. These stem from low production of all commod­ ities, especially sugar, Cuba's main crop. Soviet-made cane­ cutting machines, he said, have not given the results hoped for since they were made for level ground and not for the hilly land of. many Cuban plantations. Low wages contribute to the widespread apathy and hopeless­ ness among the people. There i.ll little to be bought with the low wages save basic necessities. A ry pair of shoes a year is about all • worker can hope for, the offi­ cial said.

Catholic Colleges Get U. S. Loans WASHINGTON (NC) - Two Catholic institutions have ob­ tained U. S. loans totaling more than $4 million to construct dor­ mitories. The college housing loan branch of the Community Facili.. ties Administration disclosed • $3,660,000 loan has been made to Marquette University, Mil­ waukee, to construct a high-rise dormitory.

New York Commissioner Approves Ireland -Now Leader I" Unmarried Aid for Parish School Pupils DUBLIN (NC)-The number ALBANY (NC) - State Com­ missioner of Education James E. Allen, Jr., has given the green light to participation by pupils in church-related schools in pro­ grams under the Education Act of 1965. Allen and his advisors held that participation by such stu­ dents will not conflict with the state constitution as long as pro­ grams for them are financed ex­ clusively by federal funds. Charles A. Brind, chief legal counsel of the state Education Department, said federal funds could be used for such purposes as renting property, hiring teachers, and buying supplies and equipment. He made it clear that the property could be in nonpublic schools and the teach­ ers and supplies could be as­ signed to such schools. The decision gives the go­

ahead to allocation of nearly $100 million in federal funds designated for education pro­ grams for school children and pre-schoolers from poor families in New York state. Allen announced his stand in a special message to public and nonpublic school administrators and others. It was indicated that meetings would be held through­ out the state to outline the me­ chanies of the school aid pro­ gram. Approval of participation by stu den t s in church-related schools came in the wake of an opinion, requested by Allen, by State Atty. Gen. Louis J. Lef­ kowitz. Lefkowitz took the stand that under the state constitution no state money could be used to aid the education of children in church-related institutions.

of unmarried adults in Ireland ill from two to six times that of any other European country, "quite a fantastic situation," the Irish chief national statistician told a Council of Europe confer­ ence on population and refugees here. "Lest it be thought that this fact is in any way seriously in­ fluenced by the number of priests, Brothers or nuns in the country, let me hasten to add that in any particular age group only about three per cent of the males and a~ut five per cent of the females are in religious life," said Dr. M. D. McCarthy, director of the Irish Central Statistics office. Dr. McCarthy said that the Irish are now marrying younger. Compared to 1946, the -average marrying age for men has dropped from 33 to 30 and for women from 28 to 26lh.

CHURCH AMID RUINS: Built on the ruins of a pagan temple in the Roman Forum, this church of St. Lawrence in Miranda symbolizes the Fall of the Roman Empire and the rise of Christianity. A temple built in 141 A.D. in memory of Empress Faustina was later dedicated to Emporer Antoninus Pius. In the eleventh century the temple was converted into a shrine honoring St. Lawrence, a third century Roman martyr. St. Lawrence's feast is observed Aug. 10. NC Photo.

Influence for Unity Anglican Nuns Are Leading Movement Toward Christian Renewal' in U. S. PROVIDENCE (NC)-Among the leading influences in the movement tow a r d Christian 1U1ity in the United States today are groups of Anglican nuns. Communities of Anglican Sis­ ters have been working in this country for many years almost unknown by Catholics. When seen by Catholics on the street, they would be' invariably ac­ cepted and greeted as Catholics, mce most of them wear reli­ gious garb and live lives nearly Identical to their Catholic Sie­ ters. Now things are changiilg. A1J a result of the ecumenical council, nuns have often taken the initia­ tive in Christian renewaL An­ glican Sisters have moved .. 1'8pidly as any others, forming new contacts with CathOlics and making their presence felt in the world. There are 16 orders of Episco­ palian or Anglican nuns in the United States. A brief survey has revealed that a major cob:= cem of. all has been Christian unity. _ The Sisters of St. Anne lit Arlington Heights, Mass., for In­ stance, have begun a worldwide '

chain of prayer among Anglican and Catholic Sisters for church unity. The Massachusetts com­ munity has conducted an ecu­ menical workshop at which rep­ resentatives of all New England Catholic communities were in­ vited to hear explanations of the Anglican liturgy. A second meeting is planned for this August. A year ago, Sister Joel of the Sisters of the Holy Nativity in Providence, R. I., suggested that the local Episcopalian women'. group schedule a Catholic nun aa their annual luncheon speak­ er. That first meeting paved the way for further encounters at which Catholic and Anglican nuns would gather to talk about subjects ranging from the lit­ urgy to changing the religious habit. The Holy Nativity Sisters are not in favor of changing their garb. They wear a black serge habit, a black veil, white wimple and coif and a black cross. They follow the rule of st. Augustine and have discovered their daily life is nearly identical to that of the Catholic nuns.

"One of the goals of this in­ ner-eity eHort," the bishop con­ tinued, "and especially. of thi. new office, is to provide the guidance, the stimulation and the framework within whicll the local parish can more effec­ tively harness its own lay lead­ ership for participation in the. 'graSJ roots' solution of the problems of ita surrounclinl neighborhood.· Day Camp ProA'l'am

The office, which will he staffed by laymen, is an out;. growth of an advisory commit­ tee appointed 16 monthll ago b:r the bishop to study the special needs of the city parishes. n currently operates four­ week' Summer tutoring and. day camp programs in four parishes. It is also operating a Neighbor­ hood Youth Corps program, and hili contracted for Project Head­ start with the Office of Econom;­ Ie· Opportunity.

Say Government Makes Indians Guinea Pigs ROSEBUD (NC) - The Federal government is plan­ ning to use In.dians as "guin­ ea pigs" for. Federal birth control programs, an official . publication of' the Rosebud Sioux tribe has charged. "The Indian Department­ ....hich already tells some Indians when to lease their land and spend their money-has appar­ ently decided to tell them when to have marital relations," de­ Clared the Rosebud Sioux Her­ ald. The South Dakota newspaper was commenting on a recent nouncement by Secretary of the Interior Steward Udall that the Interior Department will supply birth control information and seJ;vices in Indian, Alaskan na­ tive and U. S. territorial areas ander its administration. . Udall said such services would be made available to all whC) want them through the Indian Bureau and other agencies. 'Voluntary Basis' The RosebUd Sioux Herald said an Interior Department spokesman had stated that gov­ ernment birth control services for Indians would be on a "vol­ uritary basis." . "But it also appears that the Indians, will be ,-";ed as 'guinea pigs' to experiment with the Federal govex:nment's promise to curb the worl~'s population, in­ . eluding the United S~ates," the . '. . . . newspaper ;ldded. "Udall's order marked the first . . time that the Federal govern- ­ ment has directly committed it­ self to the birth control business, according to one report," the Herald said. "But no matter how it turns out, the Indians will perhaps have a 'say-so' in a history­ making government experiment in social welfare programs."

Dismisses Tax Exemption Suit BALTIMORE (NC)-A three­ judge federal court has dismissed a suit against exempting church­ owned businesses from federal income taxes. The suit was brought by Le­ moin Cree, president of the Free­ thought Society of America, and his wife against the United States and the Maryland District Director of Internal Revenue. They claimed that tax exemp­ tions for church-owned busi­ nesses are unconstitutional be­ cause they increase the tax bur­ den on themselves and other taxpayers: The federal court in dismissing the suit indicated that the case raised serious questions but "we do not reach· these questions." The court said this was be­ cause the plaintiffs did not "ade­ quately allege that any church or association or convention of churches in Maryland or the District of Columbia has re­ ceived any income which might have been taxable.­
