Real Estate Association Hit for Discrimination
ROCHESTER (N C) Three important areas of eon c ern commanded the major attention of delegates
SAN FRANCISCO (NC) - Msgr. George G. Higgms eharged here that the National Association of Real Estate Boards is encouraging racial discrimination in housing. The prominent authority on Catholic social teachings said the association's recent policy owners have the right to own statement which upheld ab and enjoy their property accord solute property ri~hts means ing to their own dictates and the "that the social teaching of right to occupy and dispose of it the churches has had practically no influence in the real estate profession."

Suit Major Test Of School Aid WASHINGTON (NC)-A pub lic education organization hal launched what it hopes will be a major test case challenging the constitutionality of public aid to church-related schools. The Horace Mann League kicked off its effort by holding a press conference here and si multaneously filing suit in a circuit court in Annapolis, Md., against four state laws granting $2.5 million in construction funds to four church.related colleges. A spokesman said the Mann League plan.. to carry the case to the U. S. Supreme Court. Target of the league's drive are laws enacted in 1962 and 1963 by the Maryland General Assembly. They give matching grants to Hood College, Freder erick; Western Maryland Col lege, Westminster; the College of Notre Dame, Baltimore; and St. Joseph College, Emmitsburg. None of the money has actually 'been spent ye~ Charge Violation Under the laws, Notre Dame and St. Joseph's, both Catholic schools, were to get $750,000 each for new science buildings, while $500,000 each was ear marked for Hood (United Church of Christ) and Western Maryland (Methodist) for new buildings. The Mann League suit alleges that public aid to the four schools is unconstitutional be cause of their religious affilia tion. It says both the Maryland and U. S. Consittutions are violated.

without government interfer ence. "To call a spade a spade, this means that, in NAREB's opinion, property owners should have the legal right to discrim inate against Negroes," he said. The philosophy behind this statement and another NAREB declaration that a realtor doesn't have the obligation to change the mind of an 'owner who ob jects to selling to a Negro is "almost a caricature of 19th century laissez faire individual ism," Msgr. Higgins charged. "It means, among other things, that the social teaching of the churches has had practically no influence in the real estate pro fession," he' said. Catholic Thought Of Catholic thought on this subject, he said: "If a property owner's badly formed conscience tells him that he can discriminate against Negroes in the sale or rental of his property then Catholic social teaching would say that the government has the right and may even have the duty to inter vene, in defense of the Negro's right to decent housing, by en acting an 'open occupancy' law." Of the argument that realtors have no responsibility to deter mine the racial, creedal or ethnic composition of any neighbor hood, Msgr. Higgins commented: Promote Justice "That's a lot of doubletalk. Real estate agents are not ex pected to determine the compo sition of neighborhoods. On the other hand, they are expected to use their influence to promote the cause of interracial justice in their own profession. To shirk this responsibility in the name of professional ethics comes close to being hypocritical." Catholic real estate agents, he said, ought to take time out to check the NAREB's state ments with the social encyclicals of the Popes on the same sub

"They will find that the ency clicals flatly reject the notion that anyone has the right to 'occupy and dispose of property without government· interfer ence in accordance with the dic tates of his conscience,' " he said.

Proposes New Way Bishop Sheen Asks Vatican Council Action To Assis,t Mission Territories DE:TROIT (NC)-Bishop Ful_ ton ,J. Sheen said here he has proposed to the Vatican Council a new way of assisting mission territories. "I am proposing that instead of several Vatican congregations handling the Church's mission efforts, an international com missi:on be established in Rome and be composed .of bishops from all parts of the world. • e "Sections of this have-not world would 'then be given to national councils of bishops in wealthier nations who, in turn, would give smaller sections to parh:hes and institutions." In his address, which marked the 80th consecutive time he has opened a culture series here, the Bishop said that even those who take the religious vow of pov-

One hundred members of the policy-making committee spent eight days deliberating on rela lations with Roman Catholics, Christian witness and service. and the impact of Christianit) on the world. . The committee is the gov erning body of the council be tween meetings of the general assembly. The council is a world wide organization of 209 Prot;. estant, Anglican and Orthodox churches, nine of which were newly added at the Rochester conference. Its primary purpose is to advance the cause of Chris tian Unity. Relations with Roman CathG lies occupied a large amount of the delegates' attention. The satisfaction of the committee members at evidences of Catho lic renewal brought about by the Vatican Council waa heard oa all sides. Approve Report Bishop S.U. Barbieri from the Methodist Church in Argentina, for example, gave public recog nition to the improvement of in terchurch relations in South America. His statement was aU the more notable since the same Methodist bishop had in pre vious meetings complained bit terly about the religious situa tion in Latin America. The committee received wltJa approval a policy report oa "Relations with the Roma Catholic Church."

Father Loesch brought to about $5.2 million the value of aid given India through Misereor. Noting that the' Ger man Catholic Bishops appeal has raised about $54.6 million in five years, the Jesuit said: "The motives on which the ap peal was ,based were self-denial and reparation for nazi war crimes. The German people were made to realize that evils done by the nation had to be repaired. We are deeply grateful to the German people for' this magnan imous charity in bringing good out of evil."

P'ope Paul Urges World's Laymen Enter
Into Work of Church
FRASCATI (NC)-"Come help us now!" Pope Paul VI said in a direct appeal to the laity of the world to enter actively into the work of the Church. The Pontiff's strong and sim ple appeal was made in his Ser mon during Mass at the, cathe dral of Frascati. The occasion of the Pope's visit was a solemn ceremony to vene ~ate the' remains of St. Vincent Pallotti-who a century and a half ago had offered his first Mass, at Frascati, and who was eanonized by Pope John last January. P01:)e Paul hailed the newly saint;~d founder of the Society of C~.tholic Apostolate as "a pio neer in his discovery of the la ity's capacity for good," and he said that Pallotti had given a , lesson to the Church to enable it to "foresee and prepare for this hour when the Catholic laity has come of age." Th,e'layman, said the Pope, "is now one of the major hopes of the Church'." Recalling how Father Pallotti had worked in the aftermath of the French Revolution, Paul VI remarked: "The motives for the social transformation wrought by the Freneh Revolution, tho ugh clothed in laicism and protest against the Church, were, how ever, deeply Christian. "The ideals of liberty, equality and fraternity are altogether Chri~.tian, just as are today;s deep social aspirations for jus tice lind freedom. Needs Most Urgent "All of us are responsible for our times and for our brothers. Responsibility is a tremendous word which only the saints with their intuitive optimism con-
ceived with energetic force. St. Vincent Pallotti was a pioneer of that perception." Then, phrasing his words in a direct and universal appeal, the Pope said to lay people: "The day is growing late. Be come convinced that it is neces sary to work today-immediate ly, that not an hour can be lost! The needs are immense and m<lst urgent. "Come and help us to tell the world where is truth and where is error-this world which is -so distracted and almost overcome by centrifu~al movements. There is neecJ to go to work today, im mediately. Tomorrow could be too late. Now is the hour of the laity * '" *"

In at least one city, however, it was pro posed that pupils pray together before class begins officially. In a few places, school boards planned to launch courses of study on world religions. Widespread in South The fourth stanza of the Na tional Anthem was prominent in the efforts to find a substitute. The stanza, addressed to "our fathers' God," is being used in some places, but is specifically banned as a devotional exercise in others, inciuding major states such as New York and Illinois. Defiance or ignoring of the court's decision is most wide spread in the South. Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, South Caro lina and Florida adopted a hands-off policy on the decision.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs.·Sept. 19, 1963 tyP'.
For a little while, decency died last Sunday in Bir mingham. It died amid the roar that shattered the morning stillness, in a crumbling of brick, the flying of broken stained glass, the splintering of beams. It died as a devout Negro congregation gathered to pray to God and to hear a sermon on "The Love That Forgives." It died as white men sought to prove, through the murder of praying people, that they were ·superior. It is sad to think that only in the blood of innocent children will the consciences of the many be aroused. What can they say who have prattled on about the supremacy of states rights? What can they say who have advocated open or hidden opposition to the law of the land? What can they say who have refused to admit that under God all men are brothers and the color of one's skin is as immaterial as the color of one's eyes.? They can say, of course, that they never encouraged murder. But they cannot deny that their intransigent stand against recognizing the equality of the Negro and effecting integration has come to its logical conclusion. Arguments on the tongues of some become sticks of dynamite in the hands of their followers. And who can say which has done the greater damage? , Yet in the midst of it all, the country and the world have been given, by the Negro community in Birmingham and elsewhere, a lesson of charity and forebearance and for giveness that makes one want to apologize because his skin is white.

It took Pope John to breathe the spirit of charity Companions, Martyrs.

among the bishops which the popes occupy, by God's decree, is a servant's role-"nor yet as lording it over your charges, but becoming from the heart a pa·t tern to the flock" (First Read ing). If there should be any mis take about it, the Offertory hymn quotes Jeremia: "Behold, I have placed my words in your mouth." Our conviction that the hierarchy is part of God's plan for His Church is not a faith in men but in the Word of God. TUESDAY-Mass as on Sun day. "That your grace may al ways direct and be with us," is our petition in the Opening Prayer of the Mass today. The liturgy always tries to involve us in a simple recognition of the fact that we are made by God and for God. This is the way we are. It is not a matter of "every rung goes higher" or "every day l!1 every way," though these re frains have a certain truth about them, too. It is only that the human person has no other meaning and no other destiny, WEDNESDAY - Mass as 011 Sunday. Our meaning and our destiny are in our relationship to our Father and our brothers and sisters. A curious combination of humility and glory which the practical order vindicates and which has stood the test of time. "Wonderful are the deeds (our glory) which he has wrought (our humility)," we sing in the Alleluia before the Gospel.
Lauds Catholics' Dress at Mass DODGE CITY (NC) - The Summer dress of Catholics at Mass, once the object of many a sermon, got an unexpected bou quet here from Bishop Marion F. Forst of Dodge City. Back at his chancery office after a vacation, Bishop Forst commended the tasteful dress he had observed in resort areas. "I had occasion to offer Sun day Mass in a bustling resort area," he said. "As far as I could see, everyone present was dressed in the sensible, tasteful way that he would have dressed if he were attending his home parish church." The Bishop, who admits to having given his share of ser mons on abbreviated Summer sports outfits, said he was sur· prised. "It was a real pleasure to say how wrong I was," he said. "I don't doubt that there are some who have the bad taste to go to church improperly dressed. But the encouraging thing is that the majority have an appreciation of what is right and act according ly."
about our subject before launc.bo ing into new areas of knowledge. Latin America is the name of our subject; but the name itself is not altogether satisfac tory b e c a use some parts of "Latin" Amer ica don't use a Latin language (Spanish or Portuguese) but speak gen erally in English, for example Jamaica, British Guiana and British Honduras. These cou~ tries along with their immedialll neighbors are therefore often ~ ferred to as the Caribbean Co~ tries because they all border the Caribbean Sea. We might refer to our pro- gram as a study of South Amea. iea, but this title obvious~ leaves out Mexico and Centra! America. W~ need a title that will give due honor to these iD) portant places. While Mexico uses the same languege as most of "Latin" America it is on t~ North American continent. Central America between MeJllo, ico and South America is madll up of a scattering of countriesa Guatemala, El Salvador, H:mdu.. ras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and smaller countries stretched out into the AtlanU. on the Caribbean islands. Many of these are familiar ... us as tourist spots or because we have imported their style ~ music, such as calypso music. Rich Diversity Therefore after this briel skirmish into geography and linguistics, we diSC<lver that it is difficult to join all th~ countries under one heading. This is a sign of their rich d.. versity, culture and living stanO ards; a diversity which mak. "Latin" America a fascinatinc subject. To satisfy the sharpened mindl of any of our student readers we can review the statistics ot "Latin"America to give a fUl' ,ther insight into the many faceil of this area. Latin America is spread over two continents (North and Sou1h America) and three arealt (North, Central and South America) communicating in two languages principally (Spanish and Portuguese), worshipping mainly through one religioa (Catholic) and exporting vari ous crops from their rich veg& tation and climate. Reviewing some of the prod ucts we get from Latin America we can realize further the beauty and wealth of the land: chocolate, coffee, sugar, bananas. oil, peanuts, chewing gum, rub ber, tobacco and panama straw.. Problem for Church The lands have tropical rai~ and semi.deserts, jungles and plains, rivers and mountains. /There are 200,000,000 people, mostly young, and in the last 60 years 10 million people have moved into Latin America from Italy, Spain, Portugal GermaD5ft France and the Slavic countries. Just as our 13 colonies dey. oped into 50 states, so the orilf inal 11 colonies of Latin Amao ica developed into 20 republica. Most of these separated from their mother country within the last 150 years. Realizing all of these diffe1l ent facts we can understand somewhat the great problem that the Church faces in trYiD8 Turn to Page Seven

"Any action that is only one sided, though taken by govern. ment with the best of intentions, runs the risk, in the long run, of bloeking a. desirable free flow of public opinion and suggestion, and of snuffing out the citizen's sense of responsibility and ini tiative, so indispensable to the general well being of society. Spirit of Democracy For "safeguarding the demo cratic way of life," the Bishops advised: "In a political system, the spir it of democracy is not manifested only in the right of citizens to vote freely, and from time to time, but also in the ·constant effort of the elected representa tives to carry out their mandate in elose and continuous collab oration with their electors • • * "In the modern state, the in termediate bodies have become, for all practical purposes the principal and most reiiable means of expression at the dis posal of the public; therefore they should be heard and re spected as such.

CASTELGANDOLFO (NC) - Pope Paul says the pastoral efforts of the Church to meet today's problems does not mean that the Church has changed its mind about communism.

Major Discipline Prelate Predicts Greater Attention
To Liturgy Study After Council
try because young people are not being convinced that great ness is for them, Joseph A. Breig, Catholic columnist and newsman told a Worcester dioc esan teachers convention here. Breig, assistant managing edi_ tor of the Catholic Universe Bulletin, Cleveland diocesan newspaper, told the teachers young people need to be con vinced there is greatness in them. The deepest purpose of educa tion, he said, is to discover and develop the potential for good and achievement that is in the person being educated. The im_ parting of knowledge is merely one of the means to this end, he added. "Each young person is an en voy sent by God to the universe. Each is a spokesman for the cosmos," Breig said. . Breig, father of five, said even when y'ouths seem to be brash, they are in fact much too self-deprecatory., uncertain and modest. Parents and teachers should then, he continued, let young people know they are trusted· to be responsible human being•• Even if they don't take to re sponsibility at first, the trust should' not be withdrawn, M said. "Be generous with praise. J! you must criticize, find some thin~ to praise first," he advised.

but our foreign aid program gave him' 10
million dollars for a new palace, while hundreds of thousands in the country still went without lights, sewerage and decent housing.

In another country in Africa foreign aid was used to purchase extra wives for government officials!

Secular Schools' Chaplain Service Often Inadequate VANCOUVER (N C) The chaplain of the Canadian rederation of Newman Clubs. has strong doubts that the Catholic priest on the secular university campus is doing an adequate job. "The chaplaincy IIervice at ..many of our secular' universities in . Canada is inadequate," said Father Russell Breen, speaking at the Canadian Newman federa"; tion's annual convention held at· St. Mark's College, University of British Columbia. . The work at a secular univer sity involves mu'ch more than a chaplaincy at a Catholic college,' he said. "Frequently the only Catholic priest on the campus of a non-sectarian university is the Newman chaplain," . . he .added. 'Sulfer by Delaul&' "There are great opportunities for true Christian witness in our universities. The Church can auffer by default," he said. Father Breen stressed that Newman chaplains must be men who are academically qualified to live in a university commu nity. "The time has passed when a' local curate can handle the New man chaplaincy in addition to his other work," he declared.

Spokane Brother, Sister Anticipate Reunion Somewhere in Africa
'Twelve Council Fathers'
Best Book on Subject By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy The best book in English, to date, on the first session of Vatican Council II is the newly published Twelve Council Fathers by Father Walter M. Abbott, 8.J., feature editor of America (Macmillan. $3.50). It is a collection of interviews with cardinals and bishops animous in seeing a decisive who took a more or less change of attitude, atmosphere, prominent part in the pre direction - the aggiornamento, parations for, and pro or bringing up to date, of which ceedings of, the council. Those i n t e r vie wed are' Cardinal Cushing; Car dinal Leger and Bishop Carter, of Canada; Car dinal Siri and Archbishop Florit, of Italy; Cardinal Ru gambwa, of Af rica; Cardinal Suene ns, of Belgium; Car dinal Lienart, of France; Car dinal Koenig, of Austria; Cardi nal Alfrink, of the Netherlands; Cardinal Doepfner, of ~rmany; end Archbishop Cordeiro, of Pakistan. Some churchmen who wished to voice opinions, but not to have them attributed, are represented in a concluding chapter. Direct utterance Why does one call this the -best book in English yet to ap pear on the subject? For one thing, it is rich in direct utter ance by prominent Fathers of the council. It impressively illustrates the place of the bishop as a colla borator of the Pope in the work of the whole Church. And these bishops' utterance deals authori tatively and illuminatingly with almost every aspect of the coun
eil. For another thing, some of the great specialists, e.g., Car dinal Alfrink on Scripture, and Cardinal Suenens on sociology are heard in their own words. Still again, a partisan spirit is wholly lacking. Manifestly there is difference of opinion, but there is none of that suggestion of bitter contention and funda mental division found in some other books. Liberal Viewpoint This reviewer was particularly impressed, in this latter connec_ tion, by the interview with Car~ dinal Doepfner. His Eminence. evidencing admirable objectivity and disinclination to use the first personal pronounn, touches on many subjeets,and on each he speaks incisively but with nice balance. ' Plainly he is committed to the so-called liberal point of view, and he strongly advocates pro gessive measures in many fields. But he is temperate and emi nently fair in having his say. Thus, he declares, ''The ten -'sion between conservative and progressive positions belongs essentially to the Church, be cause she must always announce and apply God's message of sal vation, wh.ich is the same for all times and 'peopl~s, to all peoples and times in their special situa tions. It would be a disservice to the Church if one were to play the two power groups, conservative and progressive, against each other * * * we must keep the connection with tradition so that 'progress' will appear as a further organic development of what exists." Greatest of Fathers Each churchman interviewed, Father. Abbott found, regarded Pope John as unquestionably the greatest of the Council Fathers, and Cardinal Leger puts it most graphically when he says that the bishops were ascending a great staircase, up which the Holy Father led them from stage to stage. We would see that the staircase went on higher in such a direction that earlier we would not have seen this continuation. And there he would be again, beckoning us." Was anything accomplished at the first session. The cardinals and bishops are practically un-

The Jesuit educator gave this warning in a paper read for him, in his absence, at the sixth tri ennial meeting of the Interna tional Federation of CathoHe Universities. Some 60 Catholic university presidents and rectors from many parts of the world attend e(l the meeting at the Catholic University of America. Its chief theme was university 'education in developing nations. Father Rooney stressed that "no increase of mediocre, not to say inferior, institutions that caH themselves institutions of higher learning can enhance the cause of Catholic education."

Msgr. Joseph F. Donnelly, di rector of the Hartford Archdioc esan Labor Institute and chair man of the Connecticut State Board of Mediation and Arbitra tion, declared that "to the mil lions of Negro workers who have been shunted aside in the search for decent jobs, unions in this time of crisis have a special re sponsibility. "We are not advocating quotas or depriving workers of jobs which they now hold. But we are advocating accepting Negro .... workers as all workers should be accepted-with respect and dignity and the opportunity to be evaluated in terms of their worth as individuals." 'Restrict Number Msgr. Donnelly said that al. though there are no longer in this country any international unions which bar Negroes from membership in their constitu tions, "in practice, however, a 'number of key unions effectively exclude Negroes by making it extremely difficult, if not im possible, for them to qualify for membership, "They do this by refusing to accept them in their apprentice ship programs or arbitrarily re stricting the number of Negro apprentices."

On Fewer Better Universities WASHINGTON (NC)-Catho lics should aim for "fewer. but better" Catholic universities, an international meeting of Catho lic university educators was told here. Father Edward B. Rooney, S.J., of New York, president of the U. S. Jesuit Educational As_ sociation, warned of what be called an "alarming tendency" in the last 10 years to "multiply" Catholic universities unwisely. Father Rooney said the num ber of Catholic universities that are "true universities-as op posed to those that have a uni versity charter, sometimes call the m s e I v e s universities and aspire to university status-ill relatively few."

Schedule National Catholic Youth Week Observance WASHINGTON (NC) - The 1963 observance of Na tional Catholic Youth Week star·ting Sunday, Oct. 27 has been saluted by President Kennedy and Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston. Some eight million Catholic young people in parishes, of the responsibility of our Catholic you t h organiza youth toward the major institu tions, grammar and high tions of soc i I' t y - family, schools, colleges and univer Church a.nd State and also sities throughout the nation are expected to take part in the observance. Theme for this year's obser vance is "The Young Catholic in the Lay Apostolate." The ob servance is sponsored by the National Council of Catholic Youth, the country's largest Catholic you t h organization, which is directed by Msgr. Frederick J. Stevenson, direc tor of the Youth Department, N~' :',nal Catholic Welfare Con ference. 'Accomplish Great Good' "Your annual observance is .a valuable reminder of the im portant role the youn~ people of America play in community and family life and of the great good they accomplish," the President said in a message to Msgr. Stevenson. In commenting on the theme, President Kennedy said: "The role of youth in the lay aposto late is a real and special one. They are in a position by their pxample to influence societyac corrling the Catholic Christian irleals and to act as a link be tween the Church and civil 50 ciPly." He added: "I hope the activi ties you have planned for this week will spread an awal'eness
in recreational, educational, eco nomic and political affairs." 'Appropriate, ChalIenging' . Cardinal Cushing called the observance theme "appropriate and challenging." "Appropriate because of the emerging importance of the laity in the life of the Church. Challenging because the young people who will be influenced by your messages to them will find in it a reminder of their present responsibilities as Cath olic citizens and of their future potential in a social order which will depend so much for its SUl' vival on their fidelity to the teachings of the Church," the Cardinal said. "I pray with you and your fellow workers that your zealous labors for our young people may bear abundant and permanent fruit, as those whom God des tines for tomorrow's burdens become increasingly aware of their dignity as Christians and draw closer to one another as members of their Church and as loyal ci tizens of our beloved country," Car din a 1 Cushing wrote.

Says Most Businessmen 'Reasonably Dedicated' By Msgr. GeorgeG. Higgins
, Director, NCWC Social Action Department
I recently attended a seminar at which there was a free-for-all discussion as to whether or not the top execu tives of American industry are paid too much for their services. Some of them, it was pointed out, are earning more than $500,000 a year business community when they in straight salary, plus gen fail to point out that business erous stock options and a men also are expected to place great variety of very expen reasonable limits on their stand sive fringe benefits in the form of country club privileges, the use of company . planes and yachts and other forms of eonspicu o u s consump tion. There was general agree ment in our seminar t h ,a t there is nothing 'particu lar! y wrong about this. It - "was suggested however, that some of those who are most vocal in their defense of high salaries and generous·' fringe benefits for business executives are strangely inconsistent when it comes to the question of how much other groups in the American economy-labor 'lead ers, for example -:" should be paid for their services. Double Standard I think this is very true. It is my' impression, in, other words, that some of labor's critics have a tendency to judge the labor movement much more severely than they judge other groups in the' American economy. This is particll1arly true of certain newspapers. , The editors of these newspapers know, of course, that thousands of American businessmen enjoy 'bonuses and other financial per quisites far in excess of those accruing to the president of any union. It is difficult, however, even' to imagine their getting excited about this fact.. I cim only interpret this to mean - as one newspaper re cently admitted-that certain ed itors have a double standard of prof~sional ethics; one for bus inessmen and a more stringent one for labor leaders. Unfair to Labor In other words, they seem to think that a businessman is en titled to take as much as the traffic will legally bear, where as they expect a labor leader, as a representative of the working class, to place reasonable limits on his income and his standard of living and to do so voluntar ily. The American press is doing a genuine service to the labor movement in keeping this ideal alive, for it will be a sorry day indeed for organized labor if its leaders ever get the idea that they are entitled to .live in the lap of luxury at the expense of the rank-and-fili:!. On the other hand, certain newspapers, in my opinion, are being unfair to labor and are doing a great disservice' to the

NEWARK (NC)-Management and labor "will have to agree on justice and equality of all races" if the nation is to progress, New ark's Archbishop Thomas A. Boland assin:ted here. "There can be no denying un der the kingdom of God that all must have equal opportunity because all were created equal," the Archbishop said in Sacred Heart cathedral here. The Mass was sponsored by the Guild of St. Joseph the Worker and at tended by labor and ml;lnagement representatives. "If we're going to progress, management and labor will have to agree on justice and equality of all races," the Archbishop continued. "Without, equality there can be no advancement, socially or otherwise. "All men will know you are a disciple of God if you have love' one' for another: Those who say they love God and they do not see Him, but don't love their neighbor' whom they see, ig nore His Commandments.

Decision for Knights of Columbus In Spreading Fake Oath Case WILSON (NC) - A Baptist preacher and a member of his church were ordered to pay $1 and court costs here in North Carolina for passing out a bogus Knights of Columbus oath in the 1960 presidential campaign. The two also were permanent_ ly restrained from distributing .a pamphlet, "Will America Vote Away Her Freedom?" The bogus oath was among anti-Catholie accusations made in the pam-' phlet. U. S. Eastern District Judge John D. Larkins Jr., gave the
decision in a $100,000 libel suit
filed by the Knights of Colum. bus against Rev. Donald R. Bry. /an of Farmville and Mrs. Ruth H. Timby of Eureka. Rev. Bryan is pastor of the Central Baptist church, Farmville. Wanted I Injunction (In New Haven, Conn., head quarters of the K. of C., Supreme Knight Luke E. Hart said in an swer to an inquiry that the Knights accept the decision. "We obtained the injunction we sought against distribution of
the bogus oath; that is what we wanted most," he said.) JUdg~ Larkins ordered lihe two to pay $1 to the Knights and to meet all (lourt costs. The K. of C. charged the two included in the pamphlet a spu rious oath demonstrated many times in the past half-century as a fraud It purports to show that members of the knights, a Cath olic men's fraternal benefit so ciety, pledge to USe violence against non-Catholics in pro motin·g Catholicism.

ioners gave him a "retirement" par·ty. But Father Eisel or Shinbu (Father) Yang, as the natives call him, is far from retirement. After a vacation with his father at Alexandria, Minn.. he will return to Korea and another parish some time this Winter. While at Sinchang, on the island of Cheju Do off the southern tip of Korea, the big gest part of his work was with converts. More Vocations "They are so willing, eveh eager to learn, that from the missioner's poi n t of view, working in Korea is great," he said. Father Eisel sees the history of Korean Catholicism in three stages. First, a period of per secution, as a result of which 79 Koreans were beatified, then an influx of converts, and today, a period of numerous voca'ions. "In this abundance' of voca tions," he said, "lie the hopei of Korea." During his six years at Sinchang parish, he said, six women converts became nuns, three men entered the minor seminary and one the major seminary. But, as in any country new to the Church, the Korean missions have a darker side too, he said. A serious lack of schools creates a present and future problem for the country and for the Church. Schools are badly needed, Father Eisel' said, be cause "too many children don't have the incentive to study the Faith as their convert-parents do." With an average weekly col lection of $10 and only a small yearly contribution from each family, he said, supporting five parishes with 10,000 Catholics i. a difficult task for the five Columbans on Cheju Do island.
