Sees Change ROME (NC) - RMrgani­ zation of the Church's cen­ tral missionary office, the' Congregation for the Prop­ agation of· the ,Faith, is the "most essential and necessary provision" of the new missions schema. .

This was the judgment o{ superior general of the Divine :Word missionaries, Father John Schuette, S.V.D., du~ing a press conference in Rome (Oct. ll} following more debate in the council on the contents of the

set purpose thilt this day and no other was chosen.

The Council which intends to. renew the Church and the world through the Church, believes that only through the Cross of ChriSt can renewal be achieved by individuals and by society as a whole. The individual, of course, , must take up his cross daily and follow the Master; and society must hold in esteem and reverence the significance of the Cross, and eventually accept it in some way as the' means to orderly human progress and peace.

It is interesting to note in this' connection that the Russian thinker Vladimir Soloviev in his account of the Antichrist and the last days of the world has the last Ecumenical. Council in history open in Jerusalem on Sept. 14, to show that the Church's final victory over evil ' will be won by the Cross of Christ.

The Congregation "de Propa- ' gande 'Fide" was established over 300 years ago, he said, and its operation today is essentially the same as then. "The main' policies governing the missions an! decided in Rome' by cardi-' rials, many of whom have never been in mission countries."

Relates Marian Devotion To Issues Facing Church BALTIMORE (NC)-Devotiun to the Blessed Virgin is "not only legitimate but doctrinally demanded," 'baw­ rence Cardinal Rhehan of Baltimore has declared in a pas­ toralletter. Defending the traditional role assigned to Mary by the Church, he related it in particular to the issues .. of authority and obedience within the Church, priestly eelibacy. and the vocation of nuns.

On the matter of authority and obedience, the cardinal referred to a current "probing of the' very nature and of the long es­ tablished limits. of that authority, which sometimes calls into ques­ tion the meaning and value of religious and ecclesiastical obe­ dience."

"Christian 'obedience can only be understood in the context of the Incarnate Word of God, in the mystery of Christ," he said.

"And so it is that Christ together with His holy Mother gives us the true ideal and example for our sacrifice of obedience and its sacrifice of self."

Cardinal Shehan said the ideals of priestly celibacy and chastity are also being "ques­ tioned'" today.

"Too many in this matter seem so taken up by the diffi.. eulties of a celibate priesthood that they fail to emphasize the TurD. W :fa~ Seventeeu

·Moral Revolution on College Ccimp~s Gives Rise to Conflicting Views WASHINGTON (NC)-Con­ flicting views on the alleged revolution in morality on U.S. college campuses were presented here at the annual meeting of the American Council on Edu­ cation: Harvard University psychia­ trist Graham B. Blaine, Jr., said there' is "no reliable evidence" to show a "racial change" in students' sexual morality.

But Buell G. Gallagher, presi­ dent on the City Colleges of the City· University of New York, said during the same panel session (Oct. 8) that there has .been a "profound change" in student morality "in matters of sex, of ·the use of alcohol, of academic honesty in examina­ tions."

Gallagher smd student moral· attitudes have also been deeply affected by the civil rights movement, which has made them feel that "not to be in­ volved its immoral."

Blaine, chief of psychiatric services at Harvard's student health center criticized some current "myths" about'sex.

"One," he said, "is that de­ layed sexual satisfaction creates tension or frustration. Another· is that premarital sex is cor­ related with ,greater sexual compatibility, after marriage."

He conceded that student moral a t tit u des may have changed "a little" in recent years and cited "more self-cen­ teredness 'and 'cold logic"

PROVIDENGE (NC) ..,..- A priest-member of a conference on population problems has sharply criticized coverage 'of the conference by tile New York Times.

Father William P. HaaS, O.P., president of Providence College here, said the Times' stOry was a "highly prejudicial misinter­ pretation" of the work of the . Notre Dame Conference on Pop­ ulation Problems.

The Times story said the conference gave "qualified en­ dorsement to contraception and suggested Ii change in the Church's traditional, stand on birth control."

The article also said the ma­ jority "agreed that 'there is dependable evidence that con­ traception is not intrinsically immoral. Therefore there are certain circumstances in which it may be permitted or even rec­ ommended.''' c The article added that the conference members were not convinced by arguments from natural law, and saw no differ­ ence between birth control pills and other methods of contra­ ception.

Father Haas' said the discus­ sions of the group were con­ fidential so as to insure "com­ plete freedom to speculate about all possible approaches.". and that it was therefore "very dis­ turbing" that the Times carried a story on them.

contents of the Notre Dame resolution were badly misrepre­ sented by the unknown source of the Times' release, which gave the impression that the signers of the resolution were approving in some fashion sev­ er'a1 opinions which were in fact rejected or modified by the conference.

"For exampllt, the majority did not accept the ambiguous term 'contraceptive pill' or 'birth control pill.' Neither did the majority reject arguments from natural law as unconvincing.

The majority, moreover, did not resolve that there is 'no moral difference between birth control pills and certain other methQds of contraception.' "rn conclusion," Father Haas charged, "the document which represented the consensus of the Notre Dame conference did not look at all like the highly pre­ judicial misinterpretation of it which appeared in the New York Times release."

, 'MEXICO CITY (NC)-There are' 370 Papal Volunteers in Latin America, but at least 1,200 more are urgently needed, ·ac­ 'cording to the new P A.VLA Training Center here.

"Numerous Mexicans and other South Americans' have asked to enroll in the center since it opened," Father William McKeon stated. "Unfortunately.

I've had to tell them that our current budget is sufficient for training American volunteers only."

"In my opinion, since PAVLA is composed of lay persons, its .training centers should be di­ rected by laymen," Father Mc­ Keon said. "Ideally, the direct­ ors should be a married couple, since we train men and women simultaneously."

On loan from the diocese of Lansing, Mich., Father McKeon worked for four years with Mex­ ican migrant workers in the U.S.. and was head of the National Catholic Council for Spanish­ speaking Catholics in the U.S.A. before coming to Mexico.

Brother Almazan _began his studies for the priesthood at the .age of 35. He is a member of the Missionaries of the Holy Apostles, a society of priests who work in Latin America, and is studying at the Catholic Uni­ versity of America. He will be ·ordained next May. After ordination he will star in one more movie before begin­ ning missionary work - a film based on the life of Father Miguel Pro, S.J., Mexican mar­ tyr priest who died in 1927.

Sees Tide Changed In Latin America ST. BENEDICT (NC) ':"'The tide has changed in Latin Amer­ ica and "a complete and sweep­ ing revolution that will not be halted" is in progress, according to a veteran observer of that area.

I The Church is one of the forces helping in the revolution, says Father Albert J. Nevins, M.M., who spent the Summer on one of his many trips to Latin America.

St. Elizabeth's Church, Fall River, is entering its second half century of service trator. The parish celebrated its golden jubilee last weekend with four special Masses and a jubilee banquet. Masses included one for deceased and one for living parishioners, a Mass of thanksgiving, and for those who were unable' to street from the church to a final anniversary Mass, speak English and those who the exchange the rectory on Docket celebrated last Sunday, at wished to preserve the language Street for a two-tenement house which Bishop Connolly pre­ and' customs 6f their native at 515 Tucker Street. This resi­ sided and preached.

The jubilee banquet, also held last Sunday, had for principal speaker Atty. Francis J. Car­ reiro, Portuguese consul for the Fall ~iver area. Atty. Milton R. Silva was master of ceremo­ nies and Manuel Borges spoke representing St. Elizabeth's parishioners. Qrgan music dur­ ing the banquet was by Roger Dufour and entertainment fol­ lowing was offered by the Fran­ co Family Singers.

Last Sunday was a gold-let­ ter day, too, for Mr. and Mrs. Antone Martins, pioneer parish­ ioners who were among the first couples wed at St. Eliza­ beth's. They marked the golden anniversary of' their marriage­ simultaneously with that of their parish. \i And the event was a home­ coming for Rev. Manuel P. Fer­ reira, whose first assignment following his ordination in 1960 was ~o St. Elizabeth's. Now stationed at St. John Baptist Church, New Bedford, he re­ turned to preach at the first three of the four jubilee Masses last weekend.

Early in the history of the Fall River Diocese, Portuguese Catholics in the· area foresaw the need of parishes providing

country. In Fall River, Espirito Santo Church at first provided for this nee.d, but soon the Portuguese grew in number and spread to other parts of the city and more Portuguese parishes became necessary. One of these, St. Elizabeth's was a mission of Espirito Santo for three years preceding its independent for­

mation. Rev. John Dural was pastor at Espirito Santo at the time, and Mass was celebrated first at what was then called Cottonship barn and later at Maplewood Hall.

When Msgr. John F. Ferraz was named first pastor,. he im­ mediately began constructing the church, located on Tucker Stre~t, and purchased a 'bouse for use as a rectory. . Monsignor Ferraz remained at St. Elizabeth's Church several years, to be succeeded in 1917

by Rev. Emanuel S. deMello, whose pastorate was to be the longest in the parish.

He remained there for 16 years ministering to his parjsh­ ioners and paying off some of the debt owed for the church, rectory and a parish hall.

Rev. Joseph ·M. Silva became the third pastor of St. Elizabeth's Church in 1933. He negotiated with owners of property across

dence he renovated and redec­ orated for a rectory, a much more convenient location for the priests of the parish.

When Father Silva left in 1944, Rev. Joseph Cabral became pastor from that time until 1952, when Rev. Jose C. Valerio was appointed to St. Elizabeth's.

Father Medeiros

Father Valerio became ill in October of 1954, and Rev. Joao Medeiros came to St. Elizabeth's to assist him. The latter was named administrator the first of the following year, following the death of Father Valerio.

During his pastorate, Father Medeiros has purchased a park­ ing 10t, put a new front on the church, and redecorated the par­ ish buildings.

With approximately 1900 Port­ uguese Catholic souls in St. J!;lizabeth's parish, the pastor has been assisted by Father Fer­ reira, Rev. Ernesto R. Borges, Rev. Antonino Tavares, and Rev. Thomas Lopes as curates. Father Lopes is the present curate.

.. It. was .distu·rbing· to read and hear reporters covering the Vatican Council gleefully report from Rome the other day that the nuns and monks are going to "get out of the cloisters and into the world where they can do some good/, as one- gentleman of the press put it.

A host of false impressions was given by such a statement.

It completely ignored that vast majority of nuns and monks who are quite active in the world in works of edu­ cation, charity and social endeavors.

It gave the' impression, further, that those who have been living the contemplative life have been wasting their time and that at long last they were going to put' aside their prayer and sacrifice and strivings for self-perfection and do some good. .

Such an impression was never intended by the Council Fathers in calling for religious to enter more completely into the aggiornamento or the "bringing. the Church up to date" process.

Requests that religious modernize their garb is simply a repetition of the efforts of Pope Pius XII to have reli­ gious modify their dress in the interest of hygiene and to impress on the modern world the fact that religious are in the world, are living their lives to benefit the world, are aware of the world's problems and are not indifferent to the needs of men today.

Those who look upon the contemplative life as a "waste of time" are guilty of many' fallacies. They are completely rejecting the value of prayer and sacrifice.

They are caught up in the mistaken notion that activity means progress and good. They equate doing good with the corporal works of mercy exclusively.

This js an instance which points up the necessity for' informed reporters. These men like to feel free to send in . their stories in their own words but they must also under-' stand clearly just what is meant by Council propositions.

A paraphrase of a Council bulletin can quite easily ~hange its whole meaning or introduce implications never intended.

As Pope Paul has' said to the press on many an occasion and speaking as the son of a newspaper man­ the press must hold always before it its first obligation which is to the truth;"'

Christ and Neighbor 'It has been said, "Loving Christ through forgetting your neIghbor is a false maxim and a simple solution to aU those who are united to Him by faith or sanctifling grace or the capacity to achieve this union. So those who would love Christ must love aU men regardless of race or color or creed. They must love all men in the concrete­ Dot the loving of those in a faraway mission-land but the loving of the Negro family that moves in next door; not the loving of the Viet Cong in spite of their atrocities but the loving of a tenant who lives in the same house; not the loving of pagan babies dying in China but the loving of the babies that at times disturb the neighborhood. This is love of Christ and neighbor.

The saying can also be validly reversed - Loving one's neighbor though forgetting Christ is also a. false maxim. There are many persons who are filled with a humanitarian good will toward all or those who simply like to mind other people's business and delight in taking on and solving other people's problems. This work, to be . Christian, must be infused with a love of Christ. We love our neighbor precisely because he, too, is a child of God, a brother or sister of Christ.

It must always be Christ AND neighbor, not Christ OR neighbor.

The Congress-and After

We have had a little over a month to reflect on the success of the CCD Congress held at Bishop Stang High.

Pessimism of Commonweal About Synod Unrealistic

By Msgr. George G. Higgins (Director, Social Action Dept., N.e.W.C.) Different people have different norms for judging the success or failure of Vatican Council II. That's fair enough. For some, the norm is .collegiality or religious liberty; for others, Schema 13 or one of the other pending conciliar documents. John bishops speak for themselves.

Leo of The Commonweal is To the best of my knowledge, among those who attaches the majority of bishops­ crucial importance to col­ including the socalled "progres­

Success is the word for it and statistics bear that out. .Over 3,000 delegates register­ ed for the Congress sessions, more than two-thirds of them from our own Diocese, but some from as far away as Chicago.

The majority of those attending were laity, 1800' of them. Some 1,300 members of 36 religious communities were represented.

The training courses given at the Congress had 825 partici­ pants.

More important than mere numbers was the ,quality of enthusiasm shown at the Con­ gress. The impressive -roster of speakers was matched by the interest of their audiences. The incisive questions put to the speakers gave clear evidence' of this.

The final act of the Congress, Concelebration of the Eucharist

Father O'Connor saw little hope for a quick solution to the Vietnam problem. ''Though there is no doubt in my' mind . that we enjo~ vast military superiority," he said, "the kind of war we are fighting -the only kind we know how to fight, trying to save innocent people from being killed-re­ quires a great deal of patience, but we will eventually win."

Holy Father may sit and has sat in, the midst of the twelve Cardinals when he 'chooses to attend a General Congregation. It was from here that he addressed the Fathers upon his return from his mission of peace to the United Nations.

Temng Choice All these changes are not empty gestures of the Vicar of Christ: they express his mind in the impressive language of signs.

He carries a staff surmounted not by the usual shepherd's crook but by the image of the Crucified Lord. Unlike other Bishops, Popes of, recent years at least have not carried a Bish­ op's staff. .

Paul VI has now chosen to carry the Cross.

The choice is very telling. The Pope believes in the power of the Cross to renew and to unite, and he seems to place little trust in other means of peace for men of today, which are not imbued with the spirit of the good news of the Cross, which is the Gospel of Christ. The faith of the Pope is the faith of the People of God. The Holy Father is leading the .

CouI1cil and the Church through the Cross to renewal and througll renewal to reunion of all Chris·' tians and of all men in the in. finite love which radiates from the Cross.

His address, at the opening session, was a word of love to all men. If in future generations historians shall ask what the Catholic Church was doing at this time, the answer will be.

"The Church loved",' For the Holy Father,' the Council itself is an act of· love '\ for God, for the Church, and for: all mankind.

By' Joseph and Marilyn Roderick Recently a friend asked if I had ·any peony plants I could spare for his garden. He said he had planted several three years ago and they had failed to bloom, 80 he was going to uproot them and try some new ones. I was glad to give him some of mine but I did try to' explain to tumes for All Hallows' Eve. For him that quite often it is the past couple of years, I've making the outfits for my normal for peonies to take been daughters to haunt the neighbor­

Peonies may be planted as soon as roots are available on the market. Most nurseries have them on hand in early October and they should be planted as soon as possible after they are purchased. We dig a hole about eight inches deep and about the same width and fill it with about four inches of old manure (peonies are heavy feeders and need a good supply of fertilizer), two inches of good soil and then the peony root: The root should be planted so that the eyes (the new shoots which appear on the root) are about two inches .be­ low. the surface of the soil.

The root should come into con­ tact with the manure but should rest on good topsoil. After the root is covered the. plant·may given a top dressing of well-rot­ ted .manure. Given this kind of start and about six hours of sun a day, a·peony should. bloom In two years.

Of course, peonies attract ants which cover the buds in the Spring and· ants draw children.

And if your children are any­ thing like mine you can be sure that you will have to wait for at least five years to see a bloom.

I have one peony ~ch I have never seen in bloom because the' children cannot resist at­ tacking the ants and ·in'so do~g they snap off the buds. '.. .

Peonies are mainstay' in the garden. They bloom for' years without having to be . divided and it is not uncommon to find 10 and 40' year old plants pro­ clueing vigorously.

They are volunteers of the Catholic Magazine Apostolate, set up in the basement of a Vancouver layman's home in January 1964. There wrappers meet two or three times a week to wrap magazines collected in boxes in the vestibules of 12 parishes.

The girls are members of the Legion of Mary and Our Lady of . Perpetual. Help Sodality.

Postage is paid by donations.

Before elections 'in British Guiana last December, at a time when vast quantities of litera­ ture from Peking and Moscow were entering the country for free distribution, the Magazine

Apostolate .received an urgent call for Catholic literature.

Other calls have come from Ceylon, where the distributing office has received requests from both Catholic and Pro-· testant ministers. .

To .date, Catholic literature is mailed to 15 countries. It goes to India, Africa, the Philippines, and British Guiana. .

VICTORIA (NC)-Mother Ce­ cilia Mary, 75~year-old head ot a seven-member religious com­ munity running an animal shel­ ter here in British Columbia, said she has left the Roman Catl'\olic Church.

The nun, who fought an order from the Vatican that she and her companions cease their work with animals, said her commun­ ity has joined the Old Catholic Church "to get away from Vat­ ican ihterference."

The Old Catholic Church is a sect that split away from the Roman Catholic Church in 1871 because it disagreed with the First Vatican Council's defini­ tion that the Pope is infall.ible when speaking ex cathedra on matters of faith and morals.

Mother . Cecilia's community, the Sisters of the Love of Jesus, was originally Anglican. But she led it into the Catholic Church in 1937. In 1962, she began to work with homeless animals on property purchased .with a $60,­ 000 inheritance from her father.

"Unfortunately," he added, these Catholics have lost the tradition of charity which is one of the great glories of the Catholic Church., "They must realize that their religion should mean more tl) them than attending Mass and going to the sacraments-as im­ portant as these duties are.

"They have the obligation in conscience to help their needy neighbors, regardless of race or creed, because Christ said: 'Inas­ much as you do unto the least of my brethren, you do unto me,''' he said.

"The public schools should

carry no more than their share either of pra,ise or blame for the defects as well as the achieve­ ments in: our culture," Rock La Fleche, said.

"The charge of failure to the public schools in teaching ade­ quately the moral and spiritual values can be traced to the fact that school teachers and social administrators are products of the environment in which they live.

of manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Jonathan Daniels, a 26-year-old Episcopal seminarj,­ an from Keene, N.H. The Rev. John B. Coburn, dean of the Episcopal Theolog­ ical School in Cambridge, Mass., where Daniels was a student, called the verdict "an utterly shocking travesty of American justice."

Matthew Ahmann, executiVE!' director of the National Catholie Conference for Interracial Jus­ tice, wired President JohnsoR urging "every possible attempt on the part of your administra­ tion to bring prompt end to dis­ crimination in jury system and to end indiscriminate brutality, against people involved in voter registration."

Atty. Gen. Richmond Flowers of Alabama said the acquittal "again places the good name of Alabama and her people on' the bigoted stake of racism," 'Fantastic Charges' "1 firmly believe that the grea' majority of Alabamians are out­ raged by this callous disregard for the taking of a human life,"­ he added.

Msgr; John J. Egan, director of the office of urban affairs of the archdiocese of Chicago, called the acquittal "a disgrace to the judicial process in the United States. It points up the absolute need for federal laws protecting civil rights workers."

Father Richard Morrisroe, a Chicago priest critically wound­ ed in the same incident, declined to comment, since Coleman is still to be tried for assault for shooting him. His attorney;, Fat her Thomas McDonough, however, denied charges that Daniels and Father Morrisroe carried weapons. Such charges, he said, are "fantastic." ,

Complete Dedication

God Love You

Broun's' 'Studied Ma~~ess' Enjoyable Autobiograp·hy '.

" By Rt. Rev.

~sgr.

John S. Kennedy

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen, D.D. In this God-given work of being the Holy- Father's arm in the United States for helping all missionary societies and all poor areas of the earth,the one wonder which never ceases to amaze is thi~how many Christians there are who beg for the privilege of giving beyond their means. Take, for example, the mother who,for the first time in her married life, got together $7 and sent $3 of it to The Society for the Propagation of the Faith. It seems that 'there are always such saints in the Church.

St. Paul wrote of them: "We must tell you about the grace that God has given to the Macedonian churches. Somehow, in the most difficult circumstances, their joy and the fact of being down to their last penny themselves, produced a magnificent concern for other people. I can guaranfee that they were willing to give to the limit of their means, yes and beyond their means, without the slightest urging from me or anyone else. In fact they simply begged us to accept their gifts and so let them share the honor of supporting their brothers in Christ. Nor was their gift, as I had expected, a mere cash payment. Instead they made a complete dedication of themselves, first to the Lord, then to us, as God's appointed ministers" (II' Cor. 8, 1:5).

You might suppose that a famous critic's biography

of a famous playwright would be much more interesting than a comparatively obscure actor's autobiography. But you would be wrong, at least in the case of The Worlds of Robert E.

I would say that 50 per cent of those who help the poor of ,the world are' themselves in grave need of what they give, . as were the Macedollians.

We have noted lor years that the rich .generally give, . to those who are rich; it is only the exceptional one who gives to .the poor. An institution already worth 20 million can get " another 5 million easily, but the 10 million lepers in the world for whom we beg. are lucky to get $'70,000 a year.

Why does this happen? Why is it that those who have so little are the first' to help others in need? St. Paul gives the'rea­ son: "They first make a complete dedication of themselves to the- Lord." Their sacrifice was not first, but their love of the Lord. The gift flowed from the .love; they gave more than their ,. material gi:ft--'.they gave themselves.

U'N Publication Commemorates Papal Visit

l::"'Del'ineation' of 'Bold" Goals Frequent in Latin Church

UNITED NATIONS (NC) -The United Nations an­ no~nced (Oct. 5) it will issue an 0 f f i cia I publication in

Edited by John' J. Considine. M.M. From "The qmrch in the New Latin America" Frank declarations o{ inadequacy and delineation of bold new goals are' becoming ever more 'characteristic not only of educational circles but of every department of the Church's life in Latin America. The result is an imaginative a pp r 0 a c h to is increasing rapidly. Large problems that is creating power plants have ~een built . distinctive institutions of and new ones are under way.

The growth of Brazil's gross achievement in Latin Amer­

-

ica not found in exactly the same form in any other part of the world C h u r c h. This fact is illustra­ ted by develop­ ments touching nat ion a 1 and continental pro­ grams for basic education, adult education and the elimination of illiteracy.

Catholic ,agen­ cies have made a unique. contribution by the establishment of networks of radio schoolll for the teaching of the pOor of the cities, the peasants . of therur~ dis,tricts and the mountaineers lost in the labyrinthine confines of the Andes.

Today in sixteen out of the twenty nations of Latin ~erica, Church people operate some form of radio teaching. Over forty different networks serv~ more 'than .10,000 radio "schools" . that are engaged in conveying elementary instruction to many thousands of persons' young and old.

Miracle of SutateDZa The original such enterprise and by far the' largest today is Radio Sutatenza; operated by an organization called Cultural Popular Action, It was founded in 1947 by Msgr. Jose Joaquin Salcedo in the little mountain village of Sutatenza eighty miles from Bogota, the capital of Co­ lombia. Msgr. Salcedo's parish totaled 8,000 souls, scattered in tiny hamlets throughout the high Andes. It was physically impossible to assemble these people for school or worship or any other purpose. Monsignor passed the word that he was going to' speak to them and teach them by radio.

At first in very crude fashion and later with consummate skill he was reaching tens' of thou­ sands throughout the ;mountains.

His achievement had sOtnething ..o f magic about it; it caught the imagination of the entire Co­ lombian nation. Today it, is a, $3,000,000 enterprise, with aid from the Church, the govern­ ment and private foundations.

Soon the idea passed to other lands, sometimes in modest form, sometimes with a skill that proved much more mean~ ingfuJ than the mere elimination of illiteracy. Probably nowhere has it assumed more fascinating proportions than in Brazil under the title of the Movimento de Educacao de Base (MEB). Brazil, setting for the development of MEB for the story of MEB, we are fortunate to have an able study on this extraordinary project by Miss Marina Ban­ deria, 'Who has labored on its Rio staff from its humble be­ ginnings. This is her description of the situation: Brazil is an underdeveloped country with areas of extremely fast development.

"One section of the publica­ tion will contain photographs taken during the Pope's visit to headquarters.

"The publication will also in­ clude a color picture of the Pope addressing the 'Assembly; a bi­ ographical sketch of the Pope; background information on his ,visit; the preamble to the United Nations Charter and the Univer­ sal Declaration of Human Rights; and the complete text of the en­ cyclical letter 'Pacem in Terris,' of Pope John XXII!."

The announcement said the clothbound volume will be priced at $4.95. It will be avail­ able at the United Nations Bookshop here and distributed to book wholesalers and book­ stores.

Advises Womgn Seek Legal Help on Husband's, Will

By John J. Kane, Ph.D. "My husband made out our wills. We have no chil­ dr~n and .~e is leaving everything to his niece and two nephews. He maintains these are blood relatives of his.

On the other hand, he will not permit me to leave anything to my two nephews because not very sanguine about your

he says they are not related success in this undertaking.

to him by blood. My husband Nevertheless, it ought to be

is obstinate and I tried to tried. Try to be as charitable

as possible in your discussion

with him, but also remain firm.

What I really think would help most would be the intro­ duction of a third party. Try to find someone who has influ­ ence on him. It may be one of the parish priests, it may be a social worker in the Catholic Social Service, or a relative or friend. Although' I do hesitate to bring in either a relative or friend.

The best thing that you can do is consult an attorney on your own, show him a copy of the will, and explain all the facts to him. He will be able to inform you of your legal rights and there may even be the ques­ tion of whether or not you were forced to sign the will under duress.

Once you learn what your legal rights are, then I would have your attorney get in touch with him and his attorney if he had one. His blustering may sud­ denly cease when he learns the legal facts of life.

Sad Attitude Of course, there are probably a number of dodges that he may attempt. He could, for example, dispose of some of the money and property which he has in 'his possession and in his name immediately. That is why I urge quiet discussion for a period of time before you resort to legal methods. But if you have any intimation that he is about to do something. of this sort, you will have to move swiftly.

There is something very sad

about your husband's entire at­

titude. Unfortunately, it is

shared by a number of husbands.

He apparently doesn't realize

that the day of the patriarch

has long since passed.

He seems to believe the only

economic contribution that an

individual makes is the earning

of money. Why don't you ask

him just hoW" much he would

have had to pay for the many

services that you have provided

over the years?

Status of Heirs You have been a faithful companion, no doubt a nurse in times of illness, a cook, the housecleaner, in a word a good wife. ,How can one evaluate these services in terms of' money? It is absolutely impos­ sible. Yet, because it is impos­ sible, many men never take them into consideration.

There is, however, one factor . in this situation, which 'you have ,not mentioned, which deserves to be explored. What is the fi­ nancial status of the present heir, and -what is the financial status of those whom you would like to include in your will?

If his "blood relatives" are in . rather dire circumstances and really need what they would in­ herit, then he may have a point.

He particularly would have a point if your "blood relatives" are quite wealthy and would not need the inheritance. But since you have not made any mention of this in your letter, I 'can ,only speCUlate about it.

Award to Disney Suppose, for sake of discus­

LOS ANGELES (NC) - The sion, this is the case. You would still like to remembeJ:. your Los Angeles archdiocesan Cath­ nephews even if it were only a olic Youth Organization has lJre­ token gift. Perhaps a good strat­ sented its annual Amicus Ju­ egy would be to begin at this venum (Friend of Youth) award to film producer Walt Disney. leve+

discuss the matter, but he ranted and raved and shouted so I let it drop. He elaims he made the money and everything , we have should go to his side. But I a Iso earned nU)J1ey and put the down pay­ ment on the home. Is it wrong for me to want to remem'ber my relatives?" Mary" I am not a lawyer and it,may be that I am c:ompletely wrong.

However, I simply cannot understand how your husband could make out your will. He may have drawn it up himself, but unless you signed it in the presence of witnesses, it would probably not hold up in court.

Apparently, you did.

Legal Matter Furthermore, I have to assume that his will must be something to the effect that you wi inherit all the money during your life­ time and then it will pass on to his niece and nephews.

In many states, it is impossible for him to do this. The widow may contest such a will and in some states a certain percentage of the money and property will go to her regardless of the will.

Again, this is a legal matter and I do not feel certain, but if he should die before you, per­ haps it is possible for you to wake out a new will regardless of what he provided, Silly Contention I think your husband is being tluite unfair about the distribu­ tion of the money and property which you really jointly own.

Even if you are not employed outside the home for any con­ .siderable period of time, you made economic contributions as a housekeeper and wife. It seems a downright silly contention, that since he worked the money is entirely his. Even the law does not recognizE' that.

He does seem obsessed with his notion of blood relationship.

If he considers his niece and nephews blood relatives of his, then he ought to agree that your nephews are blood relatives of yours. Certainly, you have as much right in disposing of the estate as he.

No matter how much he ranted, raved, and shouted, you should have stood firm. You have allowed your .husband to, bully you into doing something which you feel is wrong. You are not going to help matters by succumbing every time he starts to shout. Indeed, if you have done this throughout your mar­ ried life, you have my deepest sympathy. You must have lived with the tyrant.

But I think it is time that you took a firmer stand. I would begin by attempting to discuss the matter with him. In view of what you have written, - I am

Apathy Greets Ohio Klan Rally CAMBRIDGE, (NC)-In effect the Ku Klux Klan has been no­ tified that it is not wanted here in Ohio.

Although the state's grand dragon of the Klan boasted that the organization ,"accomplished what we came to Guernsey coun­ ty for," a three-day Klan rally was a complete failure from every evident angle. An esti­ mated total of 200 persons showed up for the first two nights, and the third night was c:mcelled.

Meanwhile, more than 1,700 pArsons from the area were pres­ ent for an "Interfaith Witness for Love," held in the public high school stadium to offset the Klan program.

"Deliberately chosen celibacy, for the love of Christ and His Church, is the sign, the prophetic witness, of the presence in the world of the kingdom of God, of the superiority ,of the love of God and of His kingdom over all other human goods and bless­ ings," he said.

"Mary's virginity, ,indeed her Immaculate Conception and her Assumption," he added, "are the signs of the kingdom of God, striking testimonies of what the redemptive grace of Christ has done and can do to human crea­ tiIres who are dedicated to God and to the spread of His king­ dom."

Turning to the vocation of re­ ligious women, the cardinal re­ marked that here, too, "equally probing" questions are being raised.

Vow of Chastity "Some speak-even at times in the general press-of the vow of chastity as the source of count­ less psychological ills," he re­ marked. "The Sisters' life of prayer, of humble, obscure work in convent, school and hospital is also being represented as un­ worthy of modern women."

In answering such "charges," he said, it is necessary to take into consideration "the fact that Christ chose to be born of and to be raised by a virgin, by one called and dedicated to perpetual virginity, and the further fact that Mary throughout her life continued to lead a life of great obscurity in the eyes of men, a life of lowly labor."

not mean to imply that religious women of exceptional talent should not sometimes play a "more conspicuous" role in the Church and the world.

"I am simply saying that in considering the religious as well as the priestly life we must not lose sight of what Christ and His Mother teach," he stated.

"In the case of religious wom­ en, the most important answe'r tG the basic question concerning their life and their ideal is given

by Mary, the' greatest of Chris­ tian women, the greatest of all women-with her perpetual vir­ ginity and her unbroken life of prayer and humble, obscure labor."

The cardinal said the ecumen­ ical council had reaffirmed Mary's traditional role in the Church by devoting the final chapter of its Constitution on the Church to her.

He denied that ,by thus treat­ ing Mary within the context of another constitution instead of devoting a separate document to her the council intended to "les­ sen the importance 'of Mary in the Church's teaching." Li~ewise he denied that the council's Constitution on the Liturgy threatens popular devotion to the Blessed Virgin.

.,- ~ '~~gi~!, "t,iest' Continued from Rage One pOrtance.in Jhe ,missions because througn it the laity are deputed to the apostolate by Chr.ist Himself. .

Bishop McCauley spoke in the name of the East African Episco­ ,pal Conference.

Turning to technical aspects of . missionary administr<ltion, Bishop Joseph Martin, W.F., of Bururi Burundi, asked fOl "equit; rather than equality" as the basis for worldwide dis­ tribution of financial aid and mission personnel. Equal dis­ tribution-without reference to particular needs in certain areas -was all right in the past, he said, but cannot sl\ffice for fu­ ture. He reiterated the call of several previous speakers for reorganization of the Church's Congregation for the Propaga­ tion of the Faith bearing those considerations in mind.· Deci­ sioils regarding such an equit­ able distribution, he said. should rest with the reorganized curial missionary body.

The superior general of the Jesuits, in his second council spe.ech since his election earlier. this year, listed several reasons why he thinks missionary acti­ vity has become so little attrac­ tive and arouses so little enthu­ siasm within the Church. The approach has been "infantilistic."

Father. Pedro Arrupe, S.J., said.

He: added it is geared to children and the uneducated and thus cuts out the appeal to those who ha~e attained a degree of cul­ tur~l advancement. There has been ~'sentimentalism" as though mission work were intended for 'ehiidren' and the sick, he con­ tinued.

Father Arrupe said that the missionary effort itself has often been accompanied by a "superi­ ority complex" causing mission­ aries to underestimate the capa­ bilities of those to whom they preach. Furthermore, he said, "we have been myopic," failing to bring a broad view to mis­ sionary problems, and "super­ ficial" in disseminating infor­ mation on the missions.

Here he cited inaccuracies, particularly of authors" who write on the missions after short and superficial visits. There has been too, he said a "false cri­ terion" in the selection of mis­ sionaries, "as if all that were necessary were good health and mediocre talents." Finally, he said, the very notion of mission­ ary has almost become synony­ mous with "beggar," since many of them have spent in collecting of funds' for missions much time which could have been spent more effectively in preaching the Gospel. .

Father Arrupe called for the Congregation for the Propaga­ tion of the Faith to set up in­ formation centers for a world­ wide exchange of ideas.• Archbishop Paul Yu Pin of Nanking, who since his exile from Red China has become rector of the Catholic university in Taipheh, Formosa, asked for the establishment of special seminaries to train missionaries for countries such as China _here the Church labors under the scourge of persecution. These semin'aries, to be established in­ nations blessed with an abun­ dance of vocations, would speci­ alize in the particular needs of. the country to w.hich their can­ didates aspired, he said.

He welcomed the special role of lay apostles in the missions, asking that their work not be teaching the cathecbism in strict sense of the term, but the role of "witnesses, the light, salt and leaven of the world,"
