Two hundred cardinals, bish­ ops and religious superiors are llkeady in the Eternal City for tomorrow's convocation of an

Cardinal Forbids Arbirtrary Liturgy Experimentation! WASRINGTON (NC)-Patrick Cardinal O'Boyle, tak­ ing a firm stand against "arbitrary adjusting and experi­

One directive specified: -A priest who is unwilling In all celebrations of the lit­ to conform unfuilingly to the urgy each priest "will avoid any kind of personal innovation in Church's liturgical norms is formula, text, rite, gestures,

guidance .of the . Universal Church. Even before the synod has ", opened, however, there has been great concern as to how concrete an expression of colle­ giality it is going to be. Mostly from outside Rome, some Church leaders have'called upon the synod to do things far beyond the specific competence already assigned to it by the Pope. Others fear over-control. Others, many of them in Rome, watch it with care, fearful that it might infringe on the Pope's authority. One hears in Rome frequently the statement: "A synod is not a council," And it seems really that here the ker­ nel of the problems of both hopes and fears lies.

.. An ecumenical council, such According, to the synod's as the recent one, is an ancient norms, it comes into being and institution. It is a. gathering of ceases· to be at the will of the the bishops of the Universal .

Msgr. Coreo'ran Scores House

Amendment to Welfare Law

WASffiNGTON (NC)-House­ passed amendments to the fed­ e'ral welfare law are "coercive" and should be removed, three Catholic agencies told a Senate committee. The message came from Msgr. Lawrence J. Corcoran, secretary of' the National Conference of Catholic Charities, testifying on behalf of his office and the So­ cial Action Department and the Family Life Bureau of the U.S. Catholic Conference. He. spoke to members of the Senate Fi­ nance Committee who are hold­ ing hearings on a revised Social Security bill. Msgr. Corcoran criticized the proposed 12Jhper cent average hike in old-age, survivors and disability benefits under. Social Security as "inadequate.~ "We thought and still do, that the present benefits are inade­ quate," he said. "We thought, and still do, that the Adminis­ tration's proposals were inade­ quate Q Q 0 The bill passed by the House of Representatives io inadequate." Ceiling on' ADC "He noted that under the House­ p;;\ssed law, the minimum old­ age payment to a couple would be raised from $66 a month to $75. "Obviously this is insuf­ ficient to assure the .well being of these beneficiaries," he com­ mented. But Msgr. Corcoran's stiffest criticism was made of House­ passed legislation which would fix a ceiling on federal contri­ butions to Aid to Dependent Children and which would at­ tempt to tie birth control pro­ . prams to welfare payments. The objectives, he said, are "commendable: assuring that recipients who are able (will) eriter· the labor force, reducing illegitimacy and strengthening family life." "Granting all this, however,

Says U.5. Bars Red Take-Over In Vietnam

Thurs., Sept. 28, 1967

World Parallels To Urban Crises

PHILADELPHIA (NC)­ South Vietnam would fall quickly to communist invad­ ers from the North if it were Dot for the presence of U.S. Ib'oops. This assessment was made here by Archbishop Nguyen Van Binh of Saigon in an interview with the Catholic Standard and 'll'imes, Philadelphia archdio­ ieesan newspaper, and the NC :News Service. The archbishop made a stop in Philadelphia to visit the Viet­ namese Sisters who staff St. Charles Borromeo Seminary. :After a visit with Archbishop ~lestine J. Damiano, bishop l!Jf Camden, N.J., Archbishop Binh left for Rome, where he ~ll represent the Vietnamese hierarchy in the synod of bish­ !DPs scheduled to open Sept. 29. Th archbishop referred to the U.S. forces in Vietnam as a ~ecessary and much appreci­ lilted presence." Constant Infiltration Speaking in French and Itall­ 1m-he speaks little English­ Archbishop Binh said that all :Vietnamese want p·eace. -Who doesn't want peace?" he asked. "But could there be any true peace with constant in­ filtration from the North? If there were a cease-fire today at ilhe 17th parallel border between llTorth and South Vitnam, the ~munists would continu~ to llnfiltrate to take over the iSouth." Asked about the state of re­ ligion in Vietnam, Archbishop Binh said: "Religion is prospering in the lIouth. There is complete free­ dom of worship. We have no way elf communicating with the Catholic bishops in the North. ~e do know that they are not lIUowed to go to the parishes of their dioceses on pastoral Wsitations. Their seminaries a.e closed and there are no or­ dllnations." Relations With Buddhists "Religion is being choked to death in North Vietnam," he

.

The archbishop said many 9ietnamese Catholics are refu­ gees from North Vietnam. "The Vietnamese Sisters here at St. Charles Seminary," he ooid, "are refugees from the North who came first to Saigon llIlIld then to the United States." Archbishop Binh declared that JlePOrts of religious friction be­ tween Catholics and Buddhists :were largely the work of foreign journalists. OOYou hear nothing about this ID. Vietnam," he said, "and our relationship with the Buddhists .. very cordiaL" . Russia, China Agree 'l'he archbishop said the suc­ cess of a large· number of Cath­ elic candidates in the recent na­ tional elections indicates an ab­ lienee of religious friction, since ~ly 10 per cent of South Viet­ nam's population is Catholic. President-elect Nguyen Van 'l'hieu is a Catholic. The 57-year-old archbishop studied at Rome's Pontifical College for the Propagation of the Faith. It was during his student days in Rome that he became friendly with Archbish­ ~ Damiano. Ordained in 1937, he has been III bishop for 12 years. He was. appointed archbishop of Saigon in 1960. His archdiocese numbers 660,000 Catholics out of a total population of 3.5 million. Freedom-including religious freedom-flourishes in South Vienam only because of the mil­ Itary support of the United states, Archbishop Binh stressed.

Colleges Attract Children of Alumni

High Survey Rating for Catholic Education

CHESTNUT HILL (NC) ­ Catholic colleges apparently are highly attractive to children of Catholic college alumni, despite the financial 'sacrifice of sending students to Catholic schools. This emerged from. a national survey of "The College Choices of the Children of Alumni and Alumnae of Selected Catholic SChools." The survey, sponsored by the National Catholic Educational Association at Boston College, was conducted by Dr. James P. McIntyre, assistant to the col­ lege's vice president for student affairs. The survey p~lled graduates from one men's, one women's and one co-educational institu­ tion from each of the college ac­ crediting areas-New England, Middle States, Southern, North Central, Western and N:orthwest. Some 63 per cent of the chil­ dren of the respondents attend Catholic colleges, including 34 per cent who attend their par­ ent's alma mater.

Seminarians Attend

Chaplain School

BROOKLYN (NC) Eight seminarians studying for the . priesthood at St. Joseph's Seminai-y, Dunwoodie, Yonkers, N. Y.-major seminary for the New York archdiocese - are presently attending a nine-week chaplain officer basic course at the U. S. Army Chaplain School at Fort Hamilton here. The seminarians are the first candidates for the priesthood to enter a special army program designed to introduce theologi­ cal students to the military chaplaincy. The program's purpose is to allow divinity students an op­ portunity to gain some army background, in the hope that they may enter the army as chaplains after ordination, or at least remain in the Army re­ serve.

Despite the fact that 80 per cent of those surveyed indicated that sending their children to a Catholic college involved some financial hardship, the respond-

Trains 200 Leaders In Race Relations PITTSBURGH (NC) - Bis­ hop John J. Wright of Pitts­ burgh opened an eight-week ecumenical "Project Under­ standing"-a training program in race relations involving 200 community leaders-with a key­ note address on the ecumenical era and human relations. The project, which calls for weekly training sessions aimed at promoting interracial under­ standing and community har­ mony, is the result of a pro-' posal of the diocesan human re­ lations commission. The com­ mission is also working on par­ allel projects to implement the "conscience crusade" and pro­ vide moral motivation for step­ ped up involvement in civil rights. Leading figures on poverty and race problems will speak at the seven training sessions. Af­ ter their speeches, the 200 lead­ ers will break into groups of eight . where they will discuss and formulate' programs to in­ crease communitywide Under­ standing. It is hoped that the leaders will implement action programs in employment, hous­ ing and education when' they complete the training sessions.

ents with the largest number of children also reported the high­ est percentage of children at­ tending Catholic colleges. The percentage increased steadily from 54 per cent with one child to 83 per cent with 10 chilldren. Overwhelmingly, both child­ less respondents and those with children, 85 per cent and 88 per cent, indicated that they believe Catholic colleges are less reli­ giously oriented than they were 30 or 40 years ago. The survey also showed a strong tendency for children to attend Catholic colleges if the parent had attended a Catholic elementary or high school.

Alhambra Chaplain ERIE (NC) ' - Bishop John F. Whealon of Eries has been appointed supreme chaplain for the Order of Alhambra, a Cath­ olic group which aids retarded children. He succeeds Bishop Joseph Hodges of Wheeling, W. Va., in the post. The 12,000­ member order gives scholarships for training teachers of the re­ tarded and also directly aids re­ tarded children.

DETROIT (NC) - U.S. ur­ ban crises like strikes by autG workers and teachers and riots reflect problems found through­ out the industrialized world, members of a World Council of Churches study group agreed here. This was the consensus of the WCC's seven-member Advisory Group on Urban and Industrial Mission which visited here after holding its first U. S. meeting in Racine, Wis. Members include ministers, an educator and a sociologist and come from Africa, South Amer­ ica, Switzerland, Germany, Ja­ pan and India. The group agreed that, even with expanded urban ministries, the churches are not meeting the needs of the times. The Rev. H. F. J. Daniel, sec­ retary of an industrial evangeli­ ism committee in Bangalore, In­ dia, said much of the unrest in industrialized society todays re­ sults from the fact that people are not satisfied merely to re­ ceive. "They want to participate where the decisions are made," he said. Masao Takenaka, a professor of social ethics at Doshisha Uni­ versity, Kyoto, Japan, said the problems of ghetto residents in the U. S. and Japan are similar.

The boys had two aunts, one living in New Zealand, the other in Israel. They made inquiries about the boys after the war, and sought their custody. Miss Brun refused to giv,e them up, and there ensued a court battle which continued for several years. The final decision was that the boys were to be given to Mrs. Hedwige Rossner, the aunt in Israel. It was not immediately car­ ried out because the boys had disappeared. They were ulti­ mately located in Spain, and their recovery came in the wake of. an agreement between Cardi­ nal Gerliel' of Lyons and Grand Rabbi Kaplan of Paris. Relig·ious Controver.sy Under its terms, the boys were to be placed in the care of Andre Weil, a wealthy Fl'ench Jew, un­ til they reached their majority, and' then were ·to decide for themselves which religion would be theirs. As soon as the boys were re­ turned, they were taken to Is­ rael by Mrs. Rossner, and the repol't was that they went to live in a cpllective farm settle­ ment. In Paris, Mr. Weil observed to the press,· "Their departure is surprising and saddening. Nei­ ther Grand Rabbi Kaplan nor myself was told about it. More­ over, the Grand Rabbi had not authorized their departure on the Sabbath. I do not know what caused Mrs. Rossner to make such a brusque decision." , While the case was before the courts, it caused controversy and uproar in France. These had a religious coloration. There was feeling against the Jews on the part of Catholics who held that the boys, once baptized, must remain Catholic and, to in­ sure this, should not be handed over to their Jewish relatives. There was a feeling against the Catholics on the part of .Tews and others who maintained that the boys belonged with their relatives and that their baptism . ~'as a violation of their rights (as it seems to have been clearly a'violation of Canon Law).

Jubilorion Sees Victo~y in War On Hunger CINCINNATI (NC)-On the eve of his golden jubilee fin the priesthood, Msgr. Luigi G. Ligutti, one of the world's leading hunger fighters, lltill believes the fight can be won. Visiting here on his way to Des Moines for the jubilee cele­ bration, he also made it clear Cluit he stilI has faith in the value of the "family farm," still is con­ VJlnced of the workability of the modern social encyclicals, and bas no doubt that if the Amazon Valley were developed, "you ceould close down the rest of the world's farms." For many years Msgr. Ligutti beaded National Catholic Rural Life Conference. He is now the Holy See'o per­ manent observer with the Food nnd Agriculture Organization (FOA) of the United Nations and n consultant for several of the ]I)Ost-Vatican II commissions. Msgr. Ligutti reiterated his ceonviction that "every man is 0ur brother, and the world is our l!Wuntry." Helped With Encycllilclil! These ideas are spelled out in {!he teachings of St. Thomas Aquinas and in such modern en­ a:yclicals as Pope John XXIII's Mater et Magistra and Pope Paul VI's Progressio Populorum, be said. "And these things are entirely practical," he added. "They can be put into practice, but onl)' with hard work." He himself put the principles Jlnto practice when he became, at the age of 25, the pastor of a ll'Ural parish in Iowa, where he organized a housing project for poor families. And when his Bong-time friend Angelo Ron­ ealli became Pope John XXIII, Msgr. Ligutti had a hand in put­ ting together that Pontiff's ency­ clicals on social questions. Through the years he has in­ sisted that technological ad­ vances would be able to increase ~ pl'Oduction to meet the world's needs. Amazon VaHley "'If we would take a small per­ GlCntage of what we spend on ostronauts and shape up the Am­ azon Valley, bringing in two or ex three million Japanese farm­ ell'S, we could close down the ll'est of the farms in the world," ~ said here. "In India," he went on, "the ll'llts consume or spoil enough food to feed 20 million people. But instead of killing the rats, we say, stop having babies." Shipping food to underdevel­ oped nations is only a stopgap measure, he said, pointing out that providing the means of de­ velopment-improved seed, im­ IJ)lements, irrigation - serves the meeds of the people in a more Basting manner. But he doesn't understate the extent or seriousness of the jproblem of world poverty. "It's not correct to say that so many people go to bed every night hungry," he said.

Fa'irhaven Reception Tonight to Honor Sacred Hearts Mother General

THE ANCHORThurs., Sept. 28, 1967

She h&s the gentle touch of Ireland in her speech and twinkling ey€:s and a razor­ sharI) mind. That's the Very Rev. Mother Brigid Mary McSweeney, SS.CC., mother gen­ eral of the more than 1,400 Sacred Hearts nuns scattered throughout Europe and South Amercia and in Canada and the United States. Tonight, Mother Brigid, a native of Ma­ croon, County Cork, Ireland, will be honored at a reception at Sacred Hearts Academy, Fairhaven, which has been her temporary headquarters for two weeks between visits to houses of the order in Canada and New Jersey. Saturday she will return to the order's mother house in Rome, from which - when she is not traveling-she directs the con­ gl"egation's far flung activities. Mother Brigid reveals she en­ tered the order she now heads "accidental1y," She had never seen a Sacred Hearts nun, she explains, "until I taught with them in Gurnsey, the Channel Islands, after I graduated from c:ollege." She entered the Paris novitiate in 1934 and 30 years later-at a chapter meeting at the then mother house of the order in Paris-she was elected mother gene [·a1. Today, Rome is home for just about half of each ~'ear. "I am traveling about six months of the year," she says. A graduate of Adelphi College in Manchester, England, where she majored in English, Mother taught in schools in Weymouth, Dorset, and Epsom, Surrey, be­ for being appointed provincial of the English Province in 1952. However, she has not forgot­ ten her native Ireland,' where her brother Jeremiah and a sis­ ter, Mrs. Noreen Collins, still live. "We have· two new founda­ tions tl1e['e," she explains, "one in Youghal, County Cork, and ,a novitiate in Clones, County Monahan, that we opened this year." ireland, too, provides the "steady h'ickle" of vocations that enables the order to barely keep pace with the growing demands on it. Spain and Chile are other na­ tions in which thl: Sacred Hearts nuns find new novices. Other­ wise, Mother Brigid admits, the vocation situation is bleak. The English Province - now headed by Mother Mary Brigid Travers, former superior at Sacred Hearts Academy - is smal1, she says. "The French sisters who started it died or have gone back to France, so it's almost al1 Irish now, with a few Belgian sisters." Her far-flung "empire" has foundations in France, Belgiu.m, Holland, Italy, Spain and the British Isles-"and ·Ireland." In South America, the nuns labor in Chile-where the first South Amel'ican house was es­ tablished 138 years ago-Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Brazil and Bolivia. There are foundations in Hawaii-"We've been there 100 years, long before, statehood," she emphasizes, her eyes twink­ ling-two in Canada, "both in Quebec," and two in the United States, ift Fairhaven and New Jersey. . Since 1959, when the congre­ gation received authorizatiOD from Rome to establish "sman houses," Mother says, the order has expanded from teacbing into social service fields in South America. Today, Sacred Hearts sisteN are living and working in the slums of big cities. They are rid­ ing horseback-"They' wear diG .vided ski rts and ponchos" - to remote missions.

Gospels Proclaim Soceal Message ST. PAUL (NC)-If Catholics today are uninvolved in the problem of race, poverty, war and peace, than they are "evan­ gelical freaks of the very first order, if not, in a sense, baptized pagans," Father Peter Riga as­ serted here. The author and theologian from St. Mary's College, Oak­ land, Calif., inaugurated the 1967-68 adult education lecture series at St. Leo's parish. He told an audience of some 500 that the Church might as well "forget about any meaning­ ful aggiornamento" u n I e s s "priests and ministers get across" the social message of the Gospel to their people as part and parcel of the Christian or religious message."

Episcopal Bishop Asks Civil Rights Program Support

THE ANCHQR"":'Diocese of Fall River-Thurs. 'Sept. 28, 1967

0/ Some Value

SEATI'LE (NC)-Episeo­ palians have been asked t8 raise $1 million a year :for the next three years 'Af;o

Some people thought that after Pope Paul's recent encyclical on the matter the question of priestly celibacy might be allowed to rest for a while. Not so. A recent meet­ ing aJt South Bend, Indiana, produced such publicity about it that many are not a little disturbed. Some of the priests at the meeting ,hit hard at the idea that the Church was depriving them of the natural right to marry. The first reaction to this is that these men freely and of their own accord made a choice about this natural right and chose not to be married. before accepting the priest­ hood. What they are really saying now is that--after the f.act--they do not want this choice to be the irrevocable one that they once freely made. They want the Church to change this-something she can do but something which Pope Paul in his encyclical judged, from spiritual motives, unwise ~ do 3Jt this time. A secoJid reaction might be that even now the Church, is not stopp~ng priests from marrying. If any priest went to his bishop and told him that he was determined to marry, ·the bishop would certainly petition Rome for the priest to be laicized and allowed to marry validly. Of course, he could not also function asa priest and here is the rub. Those in­ dividuals who talk about it want both-the right to marry and the right _to act as a priest. The right to marry is a 'natural, one that they are free to exercise or to give up. But no man has the right to be a priest--the Church alone has the right to give this to a man and she is free to es­ tablish the conditions for it. It'is upsetting in all the discussion to see nowhere the reasons for the Church's asking that a man make a choice to be unmarried ,if he would be a priest. Mature men are asked to freely choose celibacy as an act of love of God and of God's people, as a constant act of faithful­ ness and dedic8ltion and commitment. It is a witness to the love that Christ has not to one family or to one person but to every family and to all people. A celibate priest is testimony to the fact that one man is willing to put ~ide what most men value-a wife and family~for the sake of all families. Whether people agree with, him or oot, he proves his sincerity by this act of free choice, by this commitment to God and His people, by this act of value. And every day of. his life his commitment is restated by the very condition of his life, by the way he lives. Surely this is of some value.

New Terms It is interesting to read statements by Archbishop Iakovos, the leader of Greek Orthodoxy in America, ask­ ing for "a' new Christianity based on entirely new concepts and terms." ,

If he means that modern man must have truths ex­ pressed to him in modern terms, he is certainly right and is ag~eeing with the remarks made by Cardinal Boo im­ mediately after Pope John called the Council. The Cardinal insisted thil>t one of the great works of the Council would be to express the truths of God in terms that today's man ,would understand.

But the impression must not be given that Chris­ tianity is changing in its essentials. The idea of God can always be enriched but what has been revealed will not, all of a sudden, lose validity and truth. Being ,a Christian means seeing new implications and ramifications of the things of God. But this does not mean contradictions and a casting aside of supernatural realities.

Newarlk Schools Introduce SeX Education Program JERSEY CITY (NC)-A pro­ gram of sex education will be introduced into the sixth; sev­ enth and eighth grades of 20 schools in the Newark archdio­ cese on an experimental basis in November. Teachers and principals from participating schools were brief­ ed on some problems they will face and techniques to be used in a preUminary workshop. Father John A. Meyer of the counseling department of the Family Life Apostolate told the educators that in the past "we have passed on an attitude toward sex that was always in­ eomplete; if not harmful; "As a result of our' avoidance of the subject," he saidd, "it has become a preoccupation. Our long-cherished negative 'values eould have produced such things as the 'Playboy' phenomenon. We have helped to develop such adolescent reactions to sex." "Sex," he added, "pervades the total personality" and, "is a pub­ lic as well as a private concern." In imparting sex knowledge, Father Meyer said, the approach used by the teacher is all impor­ tant. This involves a relationship

Birds Add Cheer to Garden In Midwinter Doldrums

Minister Joins Barry Faculty

By Joseph and Marilyn Roderick Now that the -cool weather has begun to settle in, prdeners turn their thoughts to the long Winter months ahead and to whatever pleasures they can derive from Win­ ter confinement. As for myself, I find that I can while away many hours in watch-­ fruit cooked into mouthwatering ibtg the birds that remain pies oould have become one of here in the north for the America's favorite desserts? \V i n t e r. The fascination None but the apple would be people have with bIrds Is hard

to explain but most gardeners are bitten with the bird watch­ ing bug sooner or later.

My most enjoyable time dur­ Ing the Winter is in the early

morning, usually with Jason at my side, watching the birds feed

out of our window feeder. We never seem to attract any exotic: L'lPecies to our feeder but the birds we do get put on an excit­ ling little show each morning. Last year we were limited to the nbiquitous sparrows, bluejays, Rveral finches and a few stray grosbeaks. The Winter before we :were inundated with grosbeaks :who consumed more sunflower ~ds than I would like to admit. lin addition to our window feeder, whiCh is filled with about 90 per cent sunflower seed, we have a sm'lJIl' feeder for chicka­ dees. This is tI feeder with a bar which clds~s over the feed open- ' mg if a' large bird perches on it. ' 1'his feeder ill also filled with ' I!lUIlflower seed and the chicka-' dees which: feed from it are i:l" delight to watch as they fly w the feeder for a single seed, fly to the grape arbor and then re­ turn for another. We also have two other small feeders, one of which we fill with suet for the woodpeckers and' another which we fill with a combination of lWet, peanut butter and peanuts. This Winter we intend to add another feeder for those birds who are too timid to come to the :window feeder. Last year we had !reveral cardinals who fed from ~d on the ground but would !!rot approach the house. These we hope to attract with a large lfeeder on 2 fence about 30 feet bom the house, along with any ©ther timid birds. rt is inevitable that bird watchers try to forecast weather ~y watching the activities 'of tile birds. Two seasons ago we Il.toticed that we never saw slate colored juncos until the day be­ fore a storm and this held true :fur most of last season. On a few occasions the juncos let me down ~t as I was about to send my daily weather report to Wash­ ington, but their habits do bear watching and there may be fore­ <easts of storm coming from our' bome when weathermen are pre­ dicting clear weather. ,.In the Kitchelm Tru~y, no other fruit has as much going for it as the apple. What other fruit could have tempted Eve to disobey God's warning, what other fruit could have enticed Snow White to take one little nibble when the dwarfs had warned her not to eat anything, and what other

the answer for this round, richly colored treasure has provClll the acknowledged Queen of the fruit crop. In American folklore, one man is said to have contributed more than any other to the rise to roy­ alty of this fruit. Jonathan Chap­ man was his name, but he was better known to his contempo­ raries as Johnny Appleseed. Born in Massachusetts in the lat­ ter part of the 18th century, Johnny first began his adventure in horticulture by gathering the seeds from the apples that grew on his small farm and storing them away. It was his secret dream to have hundreds of seeds to distribute to the pioneering farmers of the midwest so that they too 'could enjoy God's harvest: lin 1806 this dream became 0 reillity" as ,he filled two canoes with his priceless cargo of seeds and set out down the Ohio River. The fahns he visited along the way became richer illl bel\uty be­ cause o~ his, gift of seeds to their land. And the farmers shook their head I in amazement at this stranger who wanted to give them something and demanded in return only a little bread and milk and enough floor space for sleeping. PoorSpning Johnny Appleseed would have been very disappointed at this season's apple crop in New En­ gland. The fierce wind storms of last Spring tore almost every blossom from the trees that were in bloom. at the time and de­ stroyed the apple growers'. hopes for a bountiful Fall. The gnarled old tree in our back yard generallJ' yields enough harvest to make at least a couple of apple pies and my mother generally manages to make a few batches of her deli­ cious applesauce from those that fall to the ground, but this year U ,doesn't seem that llven this small 'amoUnt of goodies will materialize from the miserable looking crop. This certainly isn't the year for bargains in fruit. Well, maybe the professional growers will have better luck than we amateurs and perhaps we will find enough apples on the wayside stands to enable us to place a't least one juicy apple pie before our family. And here's a tempting and unusual wa;t to use those fav­ orite apples. What better way than cookies? Applejl:lc'ks 1 cup light brown sugar lh cup shortening (butter or margarine depericling how your budget is this week) :i. egg Ilh cup sifted flour lh teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon nutmeg . 1 cup chopped unpeeled apples 1) In a l'8rge bowl cream the brown sugar and shortening until well mixed, beat in the egg and gradually add the" dry in­ gredients (the flour, soda and salt that have been sifted to­ gether. 2) Beat all together well. Stir in the chopped apples. Drop in balls in II greased cookie sheet and bake in a 375' oven for 12 to 15 minutes. As soon as they come out of the oven sprinkle each cookie with IA few drops of rum.

MIAMI SHORES (NC) - A Protestant minister has been ap­ pointed to the faculty of Barry College here to teach Protestant theology to a primarily Catholic student body. He is the Rev. George A. Boyle, associate professor in the religion c.epartment at the Uni­ versity of Miami for the past two years. He has also taught at Union Theological Seminary, Kingston, Jamaica, and Emman­ uel College, Toronto. Father Joseph Jurasko. 0.1'., head of the religion department at Barry College for women op­ erated by the Dominican Sisters of Adrian, Mich" said the min­ ister was named to the faculty because "we want our students to be challenged by different faiths so they will have to be grounded in their own faith."

On Public Display Smithsonian Exhibits ¥is,sionaryls

Paintings of American ~ndiOlns

WASHINGTON (NC) - The Indian paintings of Father Nich­ olas Point, S.J., early missionary­ artist in America's northw~st, went on public display for the first time at the Smithsonian Institution's Museum of History and Technology. The six-week long special ex­ hibition coincides with publica­ tion of "Wilderness Kingdom," a collection of Father Point's jour­ nals and paintings as a mission­ ary to the Flathead, Coeur D'Alene and Blackfeet Indians from 1841-1847. Father Point was official diar­ ist for a group of missionaries, led by Father- Pierre Jean DeSmet, S.J., in a Rocky Moun­ tain area then without any per­ manent white settlement.

Accuse Communists O~ Discrimination BERLIN (NC) - The Polish bishops have accused Poland's communist government of dis­ criminating against the Church by not respecting the human rights guaranteed in the coun­ try's constitution, it was learned here. In a statement to a United Nations semiriar meeting in Warsaw, Auxiliary Bishop Zyg­ munt Choromanski of Warsaw, secretary of the Polish Bishops' Conference, called for an inves­ tigation of alleged restrictions on the rights of monks and nuns to work and study, and of limi­ tations on religious education and religious freedom.

Father Point's manuscript, six leather-bound volumes of "Rec­ ollections of the Rocky Moun­ tains," was placed in the ar­ chives of the College -rSainte­ Marie in Montreal after his death in 1868.

The

Responsible Parenthood Clinics IPlan S~udied SAN JUAN (NC)-The Puerto Rican Medical Association is studying a plan to establish "clinics of responsible parent­ hood" throughout Puerto Rico. Dr. Luis A. Izquie~do Mora, PRMA president, in a statement said: "We feel that the main problem our country has is the increase of population and lack of what we have termed 'respon:', sible parenthood.' That is, to procreate children taking into consideration both the material conditions and particularly those' circumstances in which they live, the welfare of the family and society. "The Medical Association by means of its committee of med­ icine and religion, will study the possiblities of establishing along with the persons or entities in­ terested in this problem, 'clinics' in which the couples, freely and voluntarily, will be oriented with objective and Christian conscience on the realization of their parenthood."

Plan Welcoming For 'Cardinal"

THE. ANCHORThurs., S«:pt. 28, .1967

Rome Synod Continued from Page One of the world on specific ques­ tions. However, there are those within the Church who hold the view that "norms are norms" but do not reflect the dynamic character of such a meeting. In one of the more extreme expres­ sions of this attitude, it has been suggested that the synod could take' over the function of the college of cardinals and become the body electing future popes. This so struck Pope Paul that he felt required to assure the college of cardinals he had no 13uch project in mind. Demands by various persons for a wide variety of acts and decisions by the synod's first meeting have disturbed and upset € l ertain people, As one Vatican observer put it, '.'The synod is still an unborn child, but some people are already asking it to walk like a man. There has to be continuity' and a history of development." Others worry about what they eonsider a "too controlled" agenda, ~nd wonder if the bishops are not being brought to "a glorified debating society," However, the more sanguine .. and hopeful point out that the . most important thing is that ·the . synod is being held. As one said, "If this first synod can establish clearly its' dynamic character, even if it does not come up with momentous acts, it can prove the value of 'such a new Church organism and prepare the way for its growth in the future.'~ The world's bishops have as their agenda for the next few days, daily debates on what the

Pope has designated as the chief problems confronting the post­ conciliar Church today: revision . of Canon Law, Seminary train­ ing, implementation of the li­ turgical decre.es, doctrinal prob­ lems and the discipline on mixed lIlarriages.

CLEVELAND (N-C) - Phila­ delphia's Jolin Cardinal Krol is scheduled for a homcoming. He's due back in his native Cleveland on Oct. 24 when he will offer Mass for the conve~ tion of the Polish Women's Al­ liance of America in St. Casi­ mir church. Bishop Clarence G. Issenmamli of Cleveland, convention host, will preside at the Mass and Msgr. Andrew Radecki, pastor, will preach. The alliance is the largest Polish women's fraternal insurance society in the coun­ try with more than 91,000 mem­ -bel'S. Some 1,200 delegates a~ expected at the convention. Cardinal Krol will mark his 57th birthday Oct. 26. He' was ordained a priest of the Cleve­ land diocese in 1937, and was auxiliary bishop of Cleveland from 1953 until 1961 when he was named archbishop of Phila­ delphia. .

Bishops, and the Liturgical Di­ rectory of this diocese." Withdr2.w Faculties "To celebrate the liturgy in a manner contrary to the Church's liturgical rules, constitutes just cause to withdraw the respective priest's canonical faculties, in­ cluding the faculty to celebrate the Mass anywhere in this eccle­ siastical jurisdiction." No priest has the right to cele­

brate Mass in a place not D

church or chapel, "unless he is specifically permitted to do so by me or one who acts for me in this matter." "Because it has sought to avoid legitimate ecclesiastical supervision and because in its aims and activities it is destruc­

tive of the concept of parish, I call upon the group known as 'The People' to terminate its program of liturgicaJ celebra­ tions. _ "If the members sll'ould wish to assemble occasionally to par­ ticipate together in the approved liturgy of the Mass, as do other

Catholic groups, they may make . their requests. to" the Liturgical " Commissions." , Explicit Approval .. " ' Rectors, chaplains and supe­ riors should exercise prudence in permitting use of their church or chapels for the celebration of Mass "for externs."

When such permission is given '. to a group 'not a part of his community, the rector, chaplain or superior should see that the appropriate representative of the group communicates the name of the priest who will be the cele­ brant to Msgr. E. Robert Arthur,

Scho@~ M®~~<er SAN FRANCISCO (N C ) Four inner-city parochial schools will "merge" here in 1968 in a . program aimed at interracial balance, maximum utilization of administrative and teaching per­ sonnel, full use of facilitiC's, psy­ chological counseling, and adult education. The program is designed to upgrade education for inner-city youngsters, but it could also be the shape of Catholic education in the future, according to Father Bernard A. Cummins, su­ perintendent of San Francisco archdiocesan cshools.

The schools involved in the experiment will break from the usual pattern of Catholic educa­ tion (eight years elementary, four years high school) and willl initiate three elementary schools of grade one through six, amll an "intermediate school" with grades seven and eight.

The four adjacent parish schools were chosen because 011 their common poverty, language, educational, cultural and racia] problems. Students come from ~ diverse racial and ethnic mbr­ ture, including Negroes, Japan­ ese, Filipinos, Caucasians aOO Spanish-speaking.

Father Cummins explainetll that the new setup will allow each nun instructor to teach iijJ her major field and will free two Sisters for the education of( . parents, home visiting, and othel!' cooperative services betweeil home and school.

Cites Differences The three main issues which still divide Christianity, he said, are the infallibility of the Pope, Catholic elevation of the Virgin Mary, and the Catholic claim to being the one true church. Oth­ er than these, he said, the most difficult and immediate block to unity is Catholic teaching on mixed marriages. "I feel," he said, "that the present Roman Catholic rulings are unsatisfactory and that there is likely to be an altera­ tion in the Church's attitude."

WASHINGTON (NC) - The man who is making Milwaukee famous for its racial strife brought his plea for full equality for the Negro to the nation's cap­ ital when he testified before the President's Commission on Civil Disorders. The riot commission session was held behind closed doors, but Father James E. Groppi made no secret of his appeal­ cut off all federal funds to Mil­ waukee and other cities allowing discrimination in housing, educa­ tion or employment. The militant .priest reported on his testimony at a press confer­ ence where he handled the Washington press corps as if he had spent most of his 36 years on Capitol Hill rather than in Milwaukee's inner city where he . was born. Father Groppi wears the glasses and the facial expression of a disconcerted professor, but he speaks with the certitude of an oracle. His stooped frame and Roman collar give him the ap­ pearance of a meek cure, but the two stalwart and strapping NAACP Commandoes who flank him give him the specter of a tough general. Some questions he shrugged off, but always with disinterest or cynicism rather than hesi­ tancy. In addition to reiterating his

Spec'alized ,Movements, Fill Need in LatinC'hurch From "Social Revolution in the New Latin America" Edited by John J. Considine;-M.M. Latin America is in a state of economic anq social revolution, writes Oaroline Pezzullo, executive secretary of the Commission for International Development and former national president of the Young Christian Workers. So is' the' estabiished Church society with a view toward com­ in this revolutionary change. plete change. Rather, they are Catholics can be divided' into looking toward complete revolu­ three categories. The first tion and complete change; Rath­ ,group is ritualistic, traditional and politically conservative. A Ra r g e number of Catholics in lLatin America ffall into this category. The Cilecond category unites a new ,geileration of so­ cial mi nded Christians who Dre setting up oocial services and institutions ander .the inspi­ ll'ation of Christian social thought. The third embraces the com­ mitted Christian or the Christian

who sees the need for, training' people for action in a pluralistic society rather than for a trans­ j[ormation . of society through

ereation' of Christian structures. This Christian looks for the means of preparing leaders at all Revels to spearhead Latin Amer­ ka's social and economic revo­ llution. 'Marina Bandiera, for ex­ ample, can be located in this third category.

But people like Marina repre­ IIent such Ii minority that they ore in effect, almost a prophetic element. They may be among lthose who in part inspired Pope JTohn's encyclical, Peace 011 Earth. Five Per Cent Active Of the twenty per cent good Catholics in Latin America (de-, batable percentage, by the way) probably five per cent are ac­ tively engaged in the apostolate of the Church. The formation of ~his apostolate in Latin America fs patterned very much after the Mexican general Catholic Action Movement, that is, an organiza-: tion on parochial, diocesan and' national levels involving CathO"' lic men and women and Catholic' youth. This pattern was adopted in all of the countries of Latin America with the exception of Brazil which started out concen­ trating on specialized move­ ments. Let us now consider the field of specialized Catholic action. This movement originated from the Young Christian WorkeI's, an in' :::rnational youth organiza­ tion formed of \'I{orking people. The founder was the last Cardi­ lIlal Cardijn. (In the United States I understand the name bas recently been changed to Young Christian Movement.) The Young Christian Workers are concerned chiefly with the preparation of Christian leaders who will work in a pluralist 80­ eiety toward the full develop­ ment of social institutions. They are not necessarily chal­ llenging the fauJ,ty structures Qf

SAN ANTONIO (NC) - The San Antonio archdiocese has claimed that the union com­ plaint of unfair labor practiceS by the archdiocese "completely misrepresented" the archdio­ cese's position on negotiations for a labor contract covering 32 employees of the archdiocesan cemeteries. The dispute broke into the open recently when the Commu­ nications Workers of America filed a complaint with the Na­ tional Labor Relations Board . charging that the archdiocese acted in bad faith when it granted the employees a three per cent wage boost without -bargaining with the union. The archdiocese replied that the wage boost was "automatic, according to terms of a previous LECTURER:R~.Arthm wage scale set by the archdio­ cese in 1965.

I!rtudying wider grounds for di­ vorce in Canada. , The 102 Bishops representing cevery diocese in, Canada met in ¢he nation's capital at the sec­ ~nd plenary meeting within five months of the Canadian Catholic Conference at which time they re-emphasized the government's responsibility to protect mar­ riage. "It's s~mply not a matter of making it easier to get out of marriage," said Bishop Alexan­ der Carter of Sault Ste. Marie, newly elected conference presi­ dent, in leading the criticism against the government's divorce CllOmmittee report., He said. Canadian Bishops are not opposed to "a sensible -law on'divorce." Last Spring, the Bishops gave l:qUalified support to a widening ~f 'divorce laws on certain con­ ditions. One is that the govern­ ment make an effort to save marriages that had a hope of being saved. The Bishops' brief recom­ mended setting up a government agency to work with divorce <l:Ourts to try to bring about rec­ onciliations. "I think that to extend the grounds of divorce without legis­ lation to protect the family would be one of the greatest tragedies'that could ever befall this country," said Coadjutor Archbishop Philip Pocock' of Toronto. " Mass Changfl The Bis~ops also decided that beginning Oct. 1, the Canon of the Mass will be' said in the lan­ guage of a' parish-French or English - rather than in Latin. Another change will allow Canadian priests to hear confes­ alons in any diocese in Canada without having to seek permis­ Dion from the Bishop of 'the dio­ ~se other than their own. Canadian Catholics may even-:­ tually be able to fulfill the ob­ ligation of' attending Sunday - Mass on ,another day of the :week. Serious But Exaggerated The Bishops set up a commit­ tee to study the question and a report is expected next Spring. The 'committee will examine the results of this move in other parts of the world. Bishop Carter said that the problem of priests leaving the ministry, in Canada is "a serious, eomplex problem, but that it is not as serious as some reports Ilave made it out to be." "We are giving complete ap­ proval for a study among the priests of a search for our iden..; . tity," Bishop Carter said in an­ nouncing ,that a committee had been organized to look into the problem. Foreign Aid Fund The Canadian Bishops will not prepare P brief on birth control among Catholics because Pope Paul VI already has a similar study under way, one prelate said. The Bishops also announced a new foreign aid.fund which will be the biggest denominational private fund of its kind in Can­ ada. The fund will not have a miSsionary objective but will aim at helping underdeveloped <l:Ountries to grow both econom­ ically and socially. The fund will be administered by laymen but will have the backing of the Bishops.

In 1959 when Miss Alice E. Murphy of St. Lawrence parish, New Bedford, decided to share h:r Catholic newspaper and mag azines with a foreign missioner, she had no idea that the Indian priest assigned her by a seminary re-mailing service would become a warm personal friend, nor that he'd one day visit her in New Bedford, and ~lebrate the TV Mass for the Diocese sympathy, through your gener­ on Ohannel Six. That, how­ osity and forgiving spirit, your ever, is exactly what happen­ neighbor sees God's love towards ed. Miss Murphy says that - " . h 1m.

she received the name of Rev. Joseph Kureethara when she an­ swered a magazine ad requesting donors of magazines. A native of Kerala State in South India, he is a priest of the Cochin Diocese there. IIi 1964, said Miss Murphy, he was sent to Rome by his bish­ op to study -for a doctorate in canon law, and while on vaca­ tion from his studies participated in a program sponsored by the New York Archdiocese under which priests from, Rome spend their free months doing parish , work in New York state.

From Rome to Rome , Coincidentally; ,Father Kur­ eethara was assigned to Rome, N. Y. on his arrival from Rome, Italy. Miss Murphy planned a trip to see. him, but instead he visited her in New Bedford and,

spent an enjoyable week seeing' New England. " This Summer again Father Kureethara served in Rome and made a quick trip to New Bedford, in the course of which he celebrated the television Mass.

His sermon, was on love of God,

and neighbor, particularly as ex­ emplified by the thousands of missioners who serve India's millions; , '~It is through you the neighbor is to see the love of God," he told his TV audience. "Your hands

John Love signed the state's relaxed abor­ tion law - the nation's first­ last April 25. In all of 1966, 10 abortions were reported in the state. A survey conducted by the De'nver Post revealed also that about 30 requests for abortions had been rejected. The survey covered six hospitals in and around the city of Denver. Of the 70 known abortions­ health oficials said the figure ,might be higher-five were per­ formed because the mother had contracted German measles dur­ ing pregnancy; 10 because of rape or incest, and five because a malformed fetus was suspect­ ed. Thirty-six operations were performed for psychiatric rea­ sons. Reasons for the remainder were not given in the survey. Twenty-five abortions were performed on residents of other states.

Institute to Train Hospital Chaplains WASHINGTON (NC) - The National Association of Catholic Chaplains will conduct a train­ ing institute for general hospital chaplains here, Oct. 9 to 20, with four daily lectures and informal ' evening discussion periods. Speakers will include Father Charles Curran, moral theolo­ gian, the Catholic University of

Father Kureethara has return­ ed to Rome to complete his doc­ toral thesis and he hopes to be back in India by Christmas: There he will resume teaching in Mt. Carmel minor seminary and will also aid'in establishment of a small trade school for boys and young men. The trade school is important to the area, explains Miss Mur­ phy, because it will fit its stil­ dents for employment in a ship­ yard soon to be constructed in Cochiti. ' Although Miss Murphy doesn't expect any more New Bedford visits in the near future from "her missioner," she will contin­ ue her correspondence with him and support of his work. She has also become acquainted by mail with Father Kureethara's sister" a Franciscan' nun who aids in operation of a school for poor children and a dispensary in Andhra State, South India.

Clergymen ,of Three Religions Discuss '/People of God' Concept

ATLANTA (NC) - Who are the people of, God? Father Donald J. Martin, S.J.. ' director of the Jesuit house of studies in Mobile, Ala.; Rabbi Marc Tanenbaum of the Amer­ ican Jewish Committee, and Dr. William R. Cannon, dean of the school of' theology at Atlanta's Em 0 r y University, discussed that question before an audience which packed the Jewish Com­ munity Center here. Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan of Atlanta served as moderator and introduced the three speak­ ers. Archbishop Hallinan said: "An­ other step has been taken toward Christian-Jewish under­ standing in our community * •• Events like this * * * are the fruit of the work of Christians and JeWish laymen, as well as clergy, in this city. It is a tribute to them that we explore togeth­ er the beautiful term, 'people of God.''' Rabbi Tanenbaum, national

director of AJC's interreligious' affairs department, said "to dis­ cuss ~he,concept of the people of God in 20 minutes is not an act of blasphemy" but it is an act of impertinence. ' God's Sovereignty He said there is "no definite conception of the idea" of the people of God, "and yet there is emerging enough thought that we may be able to understand' each other." The rabbi said many "funda-_ mental things have been re­

solved, thank God, by the Sec­ ond Vatican Council, by the

World Council of Churches (and) by the National Council of ,Churches. There haS been a commitment to overcome anti­

Semitism found in certain tradi­

tions." "There is," Rabbi Tanenbaum

assertec:J, "the' recognition that

all men stand in direct relation­ ship to God by virtue of God's sovereignty." Father Martin said "'this con­ cept, of the 'people of God' is not a well known theme in Catholicism." He said it "was used by the council as 1l subjective, biblical concept. The plan of the counell was to show the different func­ . tional roles within the people of God - the diversity of gifts. Therefore, it was discussed in rather traditional terms." "The council takes the posi­ tion on the people of God," Father Martin' stated, "that it is a heavenly reality, not an earthly one." Act of Creation Dr. ,Cannon said the concept refers to the people of Israel, but that there has been a develop­ ment in the term. "In the most inclusive sense," he said, "it refers to the act of creation itself - it means the human race. Man was made in the image of God and everything

else exists because of His power.

''The 'people of God' means, in

the Old Testament, those whom

God called for a particular mis­

sion - whom God ordained in

order to achieve a purpose for all mankind." Dr. Cannon said the term was an ex.hortation to godliness. , ''The 'people of God' are they who act like God," he declared, "they who behave like God, they who fulfill the will of God. Until

this is done, you can call them

Jews, Protestants, Catholics or

anything else."

Stude~ts

PHILADELPHIA (NC)-Moro than 1,200 students have trans­ ferred from Catholic to pub1ie high schools in PhiladelphiQ since the Philadelphia archdio­ cese announced last June it WaD admitting 1,000 fewer studentlJ to its high schools (600 of them in the city of Philadelphia and initiating a $20 annual registra­ tion fee. The transfers, 600 more than pu~lic high school officials anti­ cipated, required the authoriza­ tion of 28 new teaching positions in Philadelphia public high schools, according to the city's superintendent of schools, Dr. Mark Shedd. In some public high schools, class sizes, wm. have to be increased. Two public high schools noted the enrollment of 300 more stu­ dents than had been expected. Three other high schools noted 'unanticipated increases of over 200 students. Public school officials are in­ clined to think one reason for the increase in public school en- ' rollment is the $20 registration fee now charged by archdiocesan high schools and the fear among parents that the fee might go higher.

Msgr. Edward T. Hughes, archdiocesan superintendent of schools, said it was too early to tell what effect, 1£ any, the new fee has had on enrollment. Of­ ficial diocesan enrollment fig­

ures are compiled in October.

Glenmary Brothers Clarify Apostolate GLENDALE (NC)-Glenmar;y Brothers here in Ohio have re­ affirmed their share in the mission effort of 'the Glenma..y Home Mission Fathers and their dedication ,to the task of estab­ lishing the Church in "No Priest Land, U.S.A." In a document released after

weeks of study, the Brothel'll

clarified their role in the Glen­

mary apostolate and made prep-'

arations for their participation in the extraordinary chapter of Glenmary priests and Brothen to be held next year. The statement describes the Brother in parish service as "co-missioner" with the Glen­ mary priest and "supplementing the laity, who often are lacking in large enough numbers." The Brother also makes present a projection of God's saving mes­ sage through his personal religi­ ous dedication."

Archbishop Ramsey officiated at the largest ecumenical service ever held in Arkansas. Catholic Bishop Albert L. Fletcher of Lit­ tle Rock joined Protestant church dignitaries for the service attended by a' capacity throng in Robinson Audtorium.
