Pope Paul BOGOTA P'aul VI has
(NC) Pope served notice on COlombians and the rest of the world thM: he intends to Use the 39th International Eu charistic Congress' forcefully to urge governments, legislators 'and private leadership to make radical changes that will broad en the access of the poor to the benefits of modern civilization. At the opening ceremonies Sunday a message from Pope PaUl-his official brief appoint ing Giacomo Cardinal Lercaro, former archbishop ox Bologna, It3ly, as his legate to the con gress-exhor.ted all men to draw from the Eucharist the strength and the conviction to correct through social aeMon the appall';' ins social injustices of today. In his speech at tbe opening Cardinal Lercaro cbastized IOnian's perennial temptation t() avpid the demands of the king dom of God and His Justice, and instead to throw himself into personal and colleen ve selfish ness." He criticized those who try "to legalize and justify the ap pearances of a constituted order
while really covering conditions of injustice and hate."
It has become known here that Pope Paul is insisting on kl~ep ing the ceremonies simple anell oriented toward the poor. Obvi ous indications of this are his planned visit to the poor parish of St. Cecilia and to the farmers
at San Jose; plus a stop at a hos pital which primarily serves the poor. The Colombian press, radio and television, whose wrioting staffs come from a struggling middle class, have quickly grasped the situation and, are trying to put preSSU1'e on the
rich and on governmental struc tures to improve their policies and open greater horizons for the poor. Re~atedto ,this is the criticism of some organizational aspects of the congress-although recog nition abounds for its orderly structure, Buch as security, traf-

fic, protocol and accommoda tions, as well as the gigantic ef fort to spruce up Bogota physi cally and culturally. Editorials and columns, however, find "an aristocratic air in the distribu tion of seating at the congress site, with the closer seats re served for the elite, while the rest of the people are separated by high fences a good hundred yards away from the main altar. Also, the "temple" with the main altar has attached to it steel platforms for the press and TV, and a long row of radi() booths are behind the maiR throne. All of these factors-the distance and the obstructions make many feel that they are separated from the event. "Within the new spirit of the Church, which seeks a greater participation in liturgical func tions, it is not good that the ,people be separated and as if they are absent," said El Espec tador, a Bogota daily. Another point of criticism is the predominant role of the military. Soldiers police the traffic and the grounds, most of them well armed. Security measures seem extreme to some.

In all, more- than five thou sand persons will attend the Congress wl1ich features nation ally-known speak.ers and more than' 25 seminars, covering a wide range of religious educa tion topics. Several members of the Fall River Diocesan Executive· Board of the CCD have been chosen to serve as moderators and chair men of various Congress semi nar sessioilS.

ics of unusual interest will be capable of being viewed ,by a remote closed-circuit television system operated by, the Univer
sity of Bridgeport. The innovations' planned for the 'Congress extend to the art which will be displayed there.
Rev. Nicholas V. Grieco, Cona gress Director, said that "a vital area of new thinking within re ligions today is the place in it for art." For this reason a com mittee from the Diocese of Bridgeport is working to present a great variety of rellgious art that has been especially created for the "World in our Hands" Congress, Fathel' Grieco said. In addition, he noted, vest ments to be llsed at Masses during the Congress are being designed by Rev. John B. Giu liani, chaplain at Sacred Heart

ANCHOR 3 .Anglican Bishops Bishop Regan· Offers MaSs of, 'Thanksgiving THE Thurs., Aug. 22, 1968 Reject Proposal Prelate Offers For' Centenarian Anthony Loftus On Church Unity Father's Mass LONDON (NC)-The An. By Patricia Francis
Jlican bisoops at .their 10th Lambeth Conference here w'rned down a proposal sug gesting that the pope might head some future reunited church in eluding Anglicans. The bishops rejected the pro posal from a committee studying :relations between the papacy tand the Anglican episcopate in "he first draft of a report on the ~newal of the Church in unity. The bishops also undertook debate on the most controversial question of the conference, :whether to upset Anglican tra dition and ordain women as deacons, priests and even bish ops. The proposal on unity with the pope as head of a united church in which Anglicans would participate stated that the papacy is an historic reality "whose claims must be carefully weighed in any scheme for the ;reunion of Christendom." "Within the whole college of bishops and in ecumenical coun ells," the committee on renewal said, "it is evident that there must be a president whose office involves a personal concern for the affairs of the whole Church. This president might most fit tingly be the occupant 0 f the historic See of Rome.': Primacy of Love' 'I'he proposal admitted Angli can inacceptability of papal elaims of infallibility and "im mediate and universal jurisdic tion," but it added that Angli eans "would be prepared to ac eept the pope as having a pri macy of love, implying both honor and service, in a renewed and reunited Church, as would seem right on both historical and pragmatic grounds." Archbishop Donald Coggins of York reported that the subcom mittee on women and the priest hood had achieved a unanimity in favor of women ministers. He said the committee found' no biblical or theological objec tioris and recommended that the conference approve the ordina tion of women and ask member churches to act accordingly.
Priest Plans Fair Employment Drive Father James Groppi has an nounced plans for a fair employ ment drive against one of Mil waukee's biggest manufacturing plants unless the firm hires more Negroes. The militant white priest said he and the Milwaukee NAACP youth council will picket a firm located near the black ghetto here. Fa·ther Groppi said that less than one per cent .of the firm's 6,500 employees are black or Spanish-speaking, aJ.though ~he number of blacks in Mil :waukee is about 12 per cElnt. The picketing will begin if negotiations between union of ficials and the company fail to provide a nondiscriminatory hir ing clause in the union contract. 'I'he demonstrations will involve ·very militant direct action and oonstructive tension," Father Groppi said, and added that the youth council expects union members to respe()t the picket Une.

When Anthony Loftus celebra'ted his birthday two weeks ago, it was a gala occasion. There were con1rraetulatory mess'ages from President J'Ohnson.and Bishop Connolly, from the commissioner of social security, from Senator Edward M. Kennedy and from Fair haven selectmen, among dozens of others. There was a Mass-a very special Mass--cele brated specifically for Mr. ·~~p-· ~~r'-:' Loftus by the Most Rev. Jooeph W. Regan, bishoP of bhe prelature of 'l'agum. in
r..
the Philippines. There was a birthday cake flickering with candles and there were friends and relatives gathered around for the big day. Mr. Loftus, dignified and erect, sailed through the festivi ties with complete aplomb looking anything but a man ob serving his 100th birthday.' However, Anthony Loftus was born in County Mayo 100 years ago and was 12 when he first arrived in New Bedford. In those days and years after Iris arrival in the city, he work ed all day and attended- classes at night in the Acushnet Ave nue School. He st.arted out as a backboy in a local mill and pro gressed up the ladder. Then he decided to become a bricklayer because he "wanted to work outdoors." Sitting in his room at Our Lady's Haven in Fairhaven, where he has resided "and en joyed it" for the last 10 years, Mr. Loftus takes his listeners back in history. His mind is alert and his memory better than that of many people half his age. His eyesight has failed and his hearing is not as acute as it once was, but Mr. Loftus still looks like a man in his 70s. His birthday party at the Haven was a momentous occa sion for his fellow residents who joined in the festive event. Bishop Regan celebrated Mass in the chapel at Our Lady's Home, where Mr. Loftus attends Mass almost daily. Receives Greetings A luncheon followed in the main dining room-wi·th his fel low residents and relatives and friends somehow squeezed in together. A nephew, james F. Loftus of North Dartmouth, said nobody "really counted. the 'candles on the cake, but there' were a lot of them." President Johnson's message 110 the centenarian read: "I have learned you will cele brate your 100th birthday on August 10. On this happy occa sion, I am delighted to join your family and friends in ex tending to you hearty congrau lations and warm greetings. Both Mrs. Johns9n and I hope the future will bring you many blessings and an abundance of joy and satisfaction." Robert M. Ball, national com missioner of Social Security, said it was "great pleasure to send you birthday greetings and my personal wishes for a second century of life. May your paths ahead be smooth and may peace and contentment be your com panions as you continue on your journey." As Mr. Loftus retraced the paths of memory, he recalled his work on White's Home at St. Luke's Hospital in New Bedford, The nurses' residence was opened in 1907.
He recalled~working on one of
Newport's most famous man

SAN FRANCISCO (NC) - The AFL-CIO United Farm Workers Organizing Committee (UFWOC) opened, a new front in ~ battle with California gmpe growers by filing n $50 million damage suit in Superior Court here.

KOV8,(:Cvich, an4 "other, as yet unnamed, growers.., , The suit charges that strock growers in the Coachella Valley have illegally' marketed their grapes under. Illllion labels. The labels, Hi-Color, Try One, and Ob' Boy, are owned by the De Giorgio Corporation which hll3 signed 11 collective bargaining 'agreement with UFWOC. The nine-page suit contends that the growers are deliberate ly attempting "to deceive the re tail stores and the general pub lic of the City and County of 'San Francisco and of the entire nation as to> the kind, character, Or nature of the labor employed iIi harvesting the grapes which the labels appear." Jerome Cohen, UFWQC at torney, said that if the growers' "sl$eme" succeeds, it will sub vert the i'arm workers' call for a mationwide boycott of table grrapesand will destroy the , union:.

Urge State Help Form Workers To Organize TRENTON (NC) - The
Governor's Task Force on
Migrant Farm Laboll' has
urged a series of reforms in
eluding creation of a state agen
cy to support efforts by New
Indiana 'Nuns Outline New Objectives OLDENBURG (NC) - Chris tlan education will remain the chief apostolate of the Sisters of St. Francis of Oldenburg, Ind., but they will continue and ex pand their work amonl~ the poor in the inner city areas of the dozen dioceses in which they serve. Also approved by the commu nity's 196Jl-69 chapter, which held 30 sessions here last month, were coopera-tion with local antipoverty programs, service to migrant workers; participation in Newman Center work on sec ular campuses, and exchanges of teachers which could bring Sis ters to posts in secular colleges. Other highlights of the chap ter's decisions included: Pennission for professed Sis ters to resume their baptismal names by next June. Separation "wherever pos sible" of the position of school princlpal and that of wnvent superior. . Establishment of a "house council" to assist the superior and represent the Sisters' views
Jersey's migrant farm· workers
to organize.
The study group, in tl final
report to Gov. Richard J.
Hughes, was critical of the
state's' enforcement of laws
dealing with migrant labor and
housing. Ii claimed the group's
call for grea,ter enforcement
were "unheeded" or "ignored"
by the state's Departp1ent of
Labor ailld Industry. It recom
mended that the governor's
office assume direct responsibil
ity for the welfare of mi~rant
farm workers.
The proposal that the state as sume Ii role in organizing the nearly 21,000 New Jersey farm workers into unions is not ex pected t9 go unopposed by the state's farmers. The study. group also urged that the 1,50d Southern Negroes who come to this state for the r; harvest each Summer and the nearly 9,000 Negroes who are trucked into the state each day from the Camden-p'hiladelphia slum areas be accorded the same work guarantees now enjoyed by the nearly 5,0.0'0 Puerto Ricans who work ,here eacb Summer. Oppressfive Poverty "Against the background of an increasingly affluent. and well fed society," the report said, "the seasonal farm worker stands out in sharp contrast as the unfortunate victim of rural poverty, technological change, economic exploitation, racial discrimination and human neglect. "Hopelessly lost in a cycle of oppressive poverty, the typical migrant faces formidable bar riers in his struggle for survival. This is particularly true for the So'tithern Negro worker. "To be sure, it is an invidious system that in many ways amounts to a fQrm of human bondage that destroys the dig nity and human worth of the' individuaL" The study group was estab ]jshed by Gov. Hughes two yeal'S ago to investigate charges 'by civil rights leaders and others that Negroes and Puerto Ricans labored undElr appalling ~onditions on South Jersey farms.
Responsibility
in every house of 10 or more Sisters. Establishment of a committee :fur habit experimenta-tion and ,plans for trying proposed new "ha,bits in the coming year. Bible as Basis Chapter delegates called upon the members of the community to place increased emphasis on the Bible as the basis of spiritu al reading and personal prayer. on active participation in litur 'gical renewal and on continued in-depth study, of the documents of Vatican II in communi,ty conferences. Va,tican Council II's reference to the principle of "subsidiarity" was cited in the chapter's appeal for more personal responsibility on the part of individual Sisters. Certain requirements of prayer and community living formerly spelled out by the general coun cil will be decided in the future by individual Sisters or local groups of Sisters, the chapter declared. Moreover, the old rule of I8Jbstinence from meat three
times a week was eliminated, though the chapter "encouraged" the Sisters to keep the Friday abstinence and "as a community of Franciscan tradition, to give COJl)Orate witness to a spirit of penance by observing Saturday as a day of some self-imposed penance," a chapter spokesman said. Home visits, formerly re stricted to one day a year, were extended to three days, and Sis ters were given permission to plan a week's vacation each year "according to the limitations of her apostolic commitments." Taking up the formation of Sisters, the chapter decided to experiment with a rearranged canonical year, which is the first year of novitiate following the ceremony of investiture, when the new Sister first receives the religious habit. In the new arrangement, the canonical year wHI include a period of academic study and a period of "apostolic exploration" in addition to the usual spirtual furmllltion.

This brings the' professor to his basic' point, namely that Catholic social doctrine, in the years that lie ahead, must be de veloped through a process of de bate and that this dialogue and debate must be conducted in a structured way.

"Natural law," he says, "can no longer be regarded as uni verSalIy binding when it is a case of specific, concrete issues, Catholic' social dootrine must find 'a~ hew' way to prove its validity. , "As of now, .most pronoullf;~ ments have de'geneniled to' the level of .personal opinions, and such opinions of. themselves can not have binding force.

DAYTON (NC)-Voluntary tJransfers among pupils will begin here next month as part of the new program to correct raciai imb31ance and j))romoteintegration of parochial GChools in the Dayton area. Applications have been sub mitted by parents to transfer about 40 white children to St. James school under a voluntary exchange program. Last year there were only eight white children in a total enrollment of 164 at St. James. And about 40 Negro young~ sters will be leaving st. James for other parish schools under the open enrollment plan. The program permits Negro parents to choose any Dayton area par~ ish school they wish for their ehildren. In Resurrection parish, where the school enrollment is 70 per cent Negro, an estimated 22 black youngsters will transwer to other schools, But in this case the numbel' of departures will not be balanced by new enroll ments. Only "one or two" applica~ lions for enrolling white stu~ dents from other parishes at Resurrection have been received, according to the office of Msgr. Edwal'd A. Connaughton, super intendent of Dayton area Cath olic schools. Total enrollment at Resurrection last year was 315. Transportation Problem It is expected that about 100 youngsters will be involved in transfers in the Dayton program this year. Several applications for the voluntary exchange pro~ gram stipulated transportation requirements, which, according tQ Msgr. Connaughton, is now the bi:gest problem the program faces. Sister Mary Rose Agnes Gres lie I, head of the education de partment at Our Lady of Cincin nati College, has assumed duties as coordinator for' the school de~ ~gregation progl·am.

"Necessity" was defined under two headings by' Father Jose Maria Ma-tin Patino, directol' of ·the National Secretariat on the Liturg) - the unavailablity of male lectors and the demands of "convenience" because of the in creasing participation of women in Spanish social life.

JEFFERSON CITY (NC) ,<Calls for .defense of the Church against attacks and f()r loyalty to the Pope were BOunded at the joint national oonvention of the CatholicCen ,ii'al, Union of America and the National Catholic Women's Un ion here in MisSouri. \ . " Father Raymond A .. Schuer mann of St. Louis told the ,dele gates that they have a serious ooligation to support ~ Pope in all his pronouncements. He IIIrged them to pray ~ '''we will be able to go on· to protect and ~efend our,faith and to stand'uP' ,fl)ublicly and loudly proclaim our Royalty and devotion 'to the Holy Jrather, Christ's vicar." The president of the CCUA, ''lRichard F. Hemmerlein of S~'ra cuse also called for defense against the "many 'imd varied attacks" from within' and with 'Qutthe Church. ., , "There was' a tii~le;'; ile said;, "when our work in the CCUA included 'the str4ggle for' pl'esel'- ' vation of the faith' of the immi-, .grant against the attacks from without. Ironically, we now 'find it necessary ,to fight for the preservation, of the faith of con temporary Catholics threatened from within." Hemmerlein charged that er l!'ors and "even heresy" are being taught in some Catholic schools. "We are horrified," he added, "'by the rapid secularization of our once Catholic colleges and un i versi ties." 'Reformist Theologians' Mrs. Marie M. Sattler of Flushing, N. Y., president of the NCWC, voiced a similar theme. She called on delegates to take a "more active role to combat the erroneous impressions and false theologie's" being spread by "reformist theologians." Also 'discussed at, the con ven tion was the liberalization of abortion laws. Robert G. Lee, editor of The, MiiTor, Springfield-Cape Gi rar deau diocesan newspaper, said that liberalization supporters seek "to cure a symptom rather than the disease itself." . Abortion advocates, he said" want a law "whereby women', who 'get caught' may rid them selves and their husbands, if they are married, of the respon sibility and discomfort and so cial rejection of bearing 'a human being." ..... ' Lee criticized a society whose members are "so hardened and so callous and disillusioned that they no longer desire to contrib . ute to it the greatest of all con kibutions-another member."
Council 'to Discuss Schools" Music PITTSBURGH (NC)-School mereers and liturgical music be among the 'principal top ies discussed during the fifth Session of' 'tne diocesan' pastorai eouncil to be held here Satur day, Sept. 1,4. '~ According to Msgr. Patrick W. Rice, cOjlncil mo<i'erator, school merger discussions will' center on "the most effeCtive methods of administrating imd, finai-tchlg schools brought' together ,in mergers of plans' for the future." Regarding liturgical music, he added, matters to: be discussed are: "The nature and function of the music commission; the future of choirs; the relation of the music commission 'to the liturgical renewal, both in the ory and in practice; the quality of sacred music in our parishes."
