WASHING'JfoN (NCh-The bishops of the' United lbates have said they cannot recommend the new Dutch @mtechism for the teaching df. religion. This action was taken at a meeting here of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops.

The rally was called hastily O!il the face of congressional pres­

sure to cut the poverty program. Organizers were a group of dioc­ ~an afld religious priests, Sistero I;)Od ministers working. in the iWashington inner city. Lutheran Minister Tom Toro­ Iflan of Washington said the rally oimed to convince Congress that It faced "a true issue-moral ~mmitment to erase poverty­ iD.ot whether or not this or Bn-, ~her bill is apt to pacify or stir lJP ghettos or affect ~sc~ilation in iVietnam." The majority of the 1,500 per­ sons who turned out for the :ally were Religious and students jJrom Catholic University. Sound, Valuable Among religious leaders who Sddressed the group briefly was :patrick Cardinal O'Boyle of :f,Vashington who said "the es­ e;ence of the (poverty) program (b sound and valuable" despite some errors in its implementa­ ~on.

"Our reaction must be to 'dem­ onstrate the responsibility we DOW have (I (I (I based on the in­ herent worth of our neighbor and the love we must have for mm," Cardinal O'Boyle said. The cardinal noted that earlier !bl the day the National Confer­ ence of Catholic Bishops. unani­ ~ously passed a resolution urg­ ing the House of Representatives iIo maintain the momentum of the national attack on the causes ~ poverty. . Bishop John J. Wright of Pitts­ burgh warned the gathering against downgrading other na­ tional commitments, such as the exploration of space, in the hope ­ ~ gaining more support for the JWlr on poverty. "America has the resources to do both jobs," he stated, adding that the War on Poverty was llehiefly a war for children, for their enrichment and for the de­ ~lopment of their talents." 'Faul& of Poor' Dr. Isaac Franck, executive ~retary of the inter-religious eommittee on Racial Relations ~ the District of Columbia, said Chat many Congressman are of the opinion that poverty is the fault of the poor themselves" lIIinstead of realizing that it iii JMlllt into our society." Charging that some "fear rid­ Cleo" members of Congress do DOt want the poor to find their voice and upset the status quo, Dr. Franck said Congress should lea~ only "the loss of hope 'and' self-confidence" among the des­ titute "and the disorders which Jrill come." , EpiscopaHarl Minister Malcolm Boyd noted that Congress is Jeeply influenced by its constit­ aency, and called on Church leeders to make their own con­ lltituencies more concerned about buman misery and the agonies of . . poor. l

He also said that it is a great tribute to the community at St. Thomas that they have been spared "the current splurge of irrationality."

Asserts Proposed Catholic School Aid Plan 'Patently ~nad~quate~ . PHILADELPHIA (NC) - The controller of the Philadelphia archdiocese has called a $10 million' state aid package for 0.00.public schools "patentl:,y inadequate" for the problem it seeks to solve. Father Arthur J. Nace, top· fiscal officer of the archdiocese, told Philadelphia's diocesan newspaper, The Catholic Standard and Times, that a proposal introduced in the State legisla"ture by Republican Rep. Joseph L. Torak was "at best a good will gesture by all. individual legislator and, at worst, a ,preelection' political ploy." Asked to comment ·on Rep. Torak's 'proposal, William B. Ball, general counsel for .the Pennsylvania Catholic Conference, said PCC had not btlencon-' suIted on the measure, .adding that, based on press reports ·of

the Torak plan, Ho~e Bill ]l3G still provides "a most satisf2e­ tory solution" to the Commcn­ wealth'o public and. nonpublW educatiOlll problems.

Sees Controversy Over Telecast Movies Desirable NEW YORK (NC)-The cur­ rent furoe over the telecasting of controversial movies can be con­ sidered desirable because it pro­ vides viewers with a focal point foe evaluating television pro­ gramming. according to an oHi­ cia!' e:f the National Catholic Office for Radio and Television. "The broadcasting and adver­ tising industries are parlciularly sensiti ve right now to whether the public will accept an ever­ increasing number of what are refened to as adult movies on television," said Charles Reilly, executive director of the office. "This development affords the viewing audience with an un­ common opportunity to make known its likes and dislikes in this regard as well as in others," he stated. Reilly urged viewers to com­ municate their opinions to the networks, local stations .and es­ pecially the advertisers who sponsor the programs involved.

lP'ersonal JResD)onsibftUity "Purely negative comment is

vietually worthless," he said.

"What broadcasters and adver­

tisers need, and respect, is rea­ soned judgment J:rom the aver­ age man and woman in the viewing audience. "UnA'ortunately, these are the vel7 individuals who rarely take the time to express their opin­ iOllil on radio or TV shows be,. cause they either feel tha1 no one will pay attention to their letters or because they think that someone else will do the job for them:' Reilly said.

. Thinking and Thanking,

=

M~~R1~~

A wise man once said that a "thinking person" was 'also a "thanking person." Thanksgiving Day gives proof of tha;t. It is easy at this time of year to give a litany of reasons for giving thanks-reasons in the realm of both the spiritual a.nd the'material. But this seems hardly necessary. Any person who thinks finds for himself the reasons . to give thanks to God and to those around him., The important element in any Thanksgiving thinking is that thanks should be effective. Simply to acknowledge that God has granted favors can remain only a ritualistic thing unless the thanks shows itself in present and future eonduct. A thanking person thinks of God often and shows it in the course of his daily life. The same is true of the thanking person's family. He appreciates them not only in the sentimental setting of a Thanksgiving Day family scene-good and praiseworthy. and delightful as this is-but throughout other days, when kindness and understanding and ,patience are a great deal harder to come by.

PITTSBURGH (NC) - The Pittsburgh diocesan school board is opening its meeting to the public for the first time in ita history. AuxiliarY Bishop John B. McDowell, schools ,superintend­ ent, said the policy will go into, effect at the next meeting, scheduled for Dec. 15. The school board approved the new policy at its last meeting after a study by a subcommittee. Bishop McDowell said the in­ novation is an attem,Pt "to pro­ vide greater communication be­ tween the people and the school board." The board, once all cler­ ical but revamped in recent years, now consists of seven lay­ men, a nun and five priests. The board still will hold ex­ ecutive (closed) sessions when it believes this is necessary. Bishop McDowell cited as ex­ amples of such occasions mat­ ters involving persobal prob­ lems of some individual, and the consideration of programs still in the planning stage. Several .ground rules have been established as to how the public meetings will be con­ ducted. ' Only subjects on the agenda will be discussed, and only the school board and Bishop McDowell will decide what that agenda will be. The date of each public meet­ ing is to be announced at least two 'weeks in advance in the Pittsburgh Catholic, diocesan newspaper.

WASHINGTON (NC) -Offi­ cials of the Liturgical Confer­ ence, national organization ",-of Catholics active in the Church's liturgical renewal, have an­ nounced the 1968 Liturgical Week will be held here in the nation's capital ,",' Scheduled for mid-August, the 1968 meeting, the first in Wash­ ington, will be a first in another respect. Usually a joint J:laiional and diocesan effo.rt, the 1968 meeting will be strictly nationai with no local diocesan sponsor­ ship. In the past, the conference has analyzed and commented on liturgical' activity on. both the national' and local level by f0­ cusing on practical problems of worship. In 1968,' however, some 5,000 people are expected to gather to discuss not a particular liturgical problem, but the more basic questions raised by the current revolutions a f f e c tin g the Church's worship and mission. Devoted to the general theme of revolution and redemption, the workshop sessions will study human rights, justice and equal­ ity, war and peace, urbanization, communications, technology and cybernetics. Study groups will also investigate the ..>roblem of authority arid the growing alien­ ation between young and old.

BELFAST, (Ne) - All ~ bishops of Northern Irelan~ haVoti expressed "grave concern" abotII() the government's new proposl!l'J on state aId to private schoola The bishops welcomed, 1m) government's proposal to ~ crease' the grants for voluntalQ7, schools, but stated that th~ were "distinctly disturbed" thaa1J this should be linked with tii9 granting of far-reaching poweill over Catholic schools to locl!tl authorities. • Northern Ireland's minister «Q education, Capt, W. J. Long, sai~ that he is disappointed that t~ bishops had serious reservatioJ1lJ about the government's prc=> posals. "But, he said, "I am gratifieQi that, as I read it, the statemern; does not amount t6 an outrigM rejection of the proposals, l! shall give careful consideratiom to the matters to which m refers." The government proposallll, made il]. a recent White Papelil" seek to introduce a new system\ of "maintained". schools, where­ by .the government would n~ .only continue its. present grant!!! to private schools but would al. offer higher. grants.

Ask Continuance Of Anti.Poverty Program Funds

THE ANCHOR-DIoceM of

'on 1IIYer-...... Mw. 2S, . ,

MIAMI (NC)-Concern at lack of funds for the con­ tinuance of the' Economic Opportunity P r () g ram of Dade County was expressed here by the diocese of Miami Human Relations Board. Members of the board in a telegram to Congress pointed out that "any interruption in pro­ gram or cut-back in the anti-, poverty program in Dade Coun~ is bound to have serious' reper­ cussions among the poor whose hopes have been raised. "We are convinced that the Economic Opportunity Program, Inc., has developed a sound and effective program during its less than two-year existence and has demonstrated that with imagi­ native use of funds people can be .helped to break the cycle of poverty." // Neelll Over $2 Million ,The board, chaired by Msgr. Bryan O. Walsh, urged immedi­ ate action by Congress to pro­ vide at least $2.06 million. "We urge," they said, "that the 'Office of Economic Opportunity, Inc., CARDINALS AT CONFERENCE: National Conference John Cardinal Cody of Chicago, Patrick Cardinal O'BoyifJ be preserved as the' central ~nti.­ of Catholic Bishops meeting opened in Washington with of Wa$hingwn, Lawrence' Cardinal Shehan of Baltimo~ poverty agency, that programs such as Headstart, Neighborhood Archbishop Jolin F:Dearden~' right, presiding as eleCted James' Francis Cardinal ,McIntyre of Los Angeles, an(\\ Youth Corps, Upward' 'Bound, president.

Congressmen See Better Relations, . With Soviet 'Still Long Way Off' WASHINGTON, (NC) - Hard on the heels of Soviet Russia'a observance of the 50th anniver­ sary o:f the Red Revolution, a

special study mission of U. S. Congressmen which visited Rus­ sia and Scandinavia in Septem­ ber and October has reported that "any major improvement in United States-Soviet relations is still a long way oH.~ The "conflicts and tensions" that have marked the cold war period "have not abated materi­ ally," and there are even some indications that they could be­ come intensified in the future, the report asserted. The legislators found during their visit to Scandinavia that the mass media there is giving a . great deal of attention to crime, racial strife, "hippies" and pov­ erty in the U. S., and this caused the lawmakers "dismay." Hostile AttitUde The Congressmen reported that the communist ideology continues to exert "profound in­ fluence" over Soviet domestic and foreign Policies, and over the Soviet people's ·outlook on life and the world in general. "That ideology is changing," the report said, "but it is still diametrically opposed to those basic principles which influence U. S. undertakings both at home and abroad." "The average Soviet citizen's attitude toward the United States seems wary and hostile," the report continued. "The vast majority of the Soviet people, and of Soviet officials, appears firmly convinced that the United States is a neocolonial, imperial­ istic power, which derives. its economic strength from the ex­ ploitation of weaker countries and which threatens the very ex­ istence of the Soviet state" The Congressmen said Russian Reds "mistrust our intentions," and that they have interpreted "even incidental occurrences" in the U. S. as attempts "to demean" their observances of the revo­ lution's 50th anniversary. The fact that Stalin's daughter came to this country and published her memoirs was one of the things

cited ·criticaliy in Russia, they said. Mniitary Cal!labiility

The study group's report said

Soviet Russia's "impressive mil­

itary capability" is another "fac­

tor that suggests that the end of

the cold war is not in sight."

"In short," the report added, "the factors which are responsi­ ble for the aggressive, world­ disturbing and at times deadly competition between the Soviet Union and the United States re­ main in full play." Following visits to Norway, Finland and Sweden, the study group had this to report. "The treatment of U. S. domes­ tic and foreign activities. by the mass media of Scandinavia brought great concenl to our study mission. "Violence in the streE~ts, crime,

racial strife, 'hippiedom,' and

poverty, as well as criticism of

U. S. policy in Vietnam, are the subject of the bulk of the reports on the United States which one finds in the newspapers, maga­ zines, radio and television. Marginal Treatment "The positlve aspects of the American society, and our na­ tion's efforts on behalf of the security and economic develop.. ment of the free world, are ac­ corded marginal and condescend­ ing treatment." "In contrast," the !awmakel'll continued, "the Soviet Union's imperfections, and her govern­ ment's actions at home and abroad, are treated with consid­ erable tolerance or, when .they refleCt adversely on the Soviet leadership. ignored altogether." The congressmen said that when they expressed "dismay about this state of aHairs," their hosts "hastened to assure 118 'that the mass media treatment had little if any bearing on pop­ ular' sentiments toward the United States." "We find it difficult to accept these assurances," the congress-­ men added. The study mission was made up of Congressmen on the Sub­ committee on Europe of tbe House of Representatives' Com­ mittee Q~ Foreign Affairs. .

S~a~~ ~~~·M·tJt@[f 5)fr@[?li'~ IN®w M(jJ/w~ To ~~~~~~ ~i@B~~ Am®f7Bdm@UE~ ALBANY (NC)-A bill call­ ing for the repeal of the 73-year­ old prohibition of public assist­ ands to church-related and non­ public schools has been intro­ duced in the state Senate here. The measure, sponsored by Sen. EarlW. Brydges, Senate majority leader, would eliminate the controversial Blaine Amend­ ment to the New York state con­ stitution which imposes the ban. The measure provides that the bill would have to be approved hy the 1968 and 1969 sessions of

1Jhe legislature ahd by the state's voters in 1969.

The action was antieipated following the d~feat of the pro­ posed new state constitution in the Nov. 7 election. The Brydges measure would insert in the first artiele of the state constitution language similar to that of the first article of the U.s. Consti­

tution, by which the state legis­ lature "shall make no law Ie­

specting an establishment of Je­ ligion." The Brydges measure also would authorize eitizens' suits, permitting 8JI1y citizen to bring action against the state or local government for acts unconsti­ tutional. Presently citizens may bring suits only if 1Iley C8J;l mow personal damage. Bep.~"~

MADRID (N.C)-Whether workers will be permitted to strike in Spain is up to the country's Supreme Court. TOe case of 565 Bilbao work­ ers who went on strike late'last year and were then fired was appealed to the Supreme Court after the Labor Court in Bilbao ruled against them. Two promi­ nent lawyers have told the. Su­ preme Court that punisWng workers for striking is a viola­ tion of the constitution because it also violates the Church's social teachings. The attorneys-Joaquin Ruiz Jiminez, international president of Pax Romana, Catholic stu­ dents and intellectuals' organi­ zation, and a professor of law at Madrid University, and Manuel Alonso Garcia, professor of labor law at Barcelona University ­ have argued before the Supreme Court that the Spanish consti­ tution says "it abides 0 by the social doctrine of the Church" and that therefore it must recog­ nize the right to strike. Tl'ley base this contention on the Sec­ ond Vatican Council. Still Necessary Constitution on the The Church in othe Modern World says: "When, however, socio-eco­ nomic disputes arise, efforts must be made to come to !!l peaceful • settlement.
