Church Sees Marxism Foe .of Mankind,

Council Fathers Deal With Atheism"

FATHER ARRUPE

ROME-As we were walking out of the NCWC Rome office early this week, Bishop Connolly called Bishop Gerrard's attention and my -own to a large book on a shelf to our left: it was Fabro's Introduction to Modern Atheism. I could not get to the vol­ ume, since the bookcase was locked, and I have never read it. Its very size is enough to discourage readers like me. And it is only an introduction to atheism!

Its thousand pages or more pre­ sumably do not deal ait all with the older forms. I could not help but think of the practically impossible task facing the writers of Schema 13 when they broached the subject of ·atheism.

I could almost sense their feeling of '. helplessness at hearing Cardinal Koe­ nig of Vienna express a desire for a'

fuller development of this ph~nomenon, by listing its various forms, by showing its causes and giving the remedies to cure them, as well as by stating the Church's attitude towards atheism.

More than one Council Father has called for the specific condemnation of Marxist atheism. Others feel, how­ ever, that this is not a Council of ana~ themas or condemnations and that while rej,ecting error everywhere, the Church must befriend 'all' men and enter into dialogue with them, even, and especially, when they are in error.

Today as in times past. there is more than one form of atheism but it seems that Marxism is the most dan­ gerous that has ever appeai'ed on earth because of its "organization, its dif­ fusion, its doctrine: which can' be popularized rather easily, its fighting spirit and the enthusiasm which aniTurn to Page Ten

Swift Papal Actions May B'ring More New Council Surpr'ises

It seems characteristic of Pope Paul that actions 'speak louder than words.

Panel Helps Judge Determine Smut BALTIMORE (NC)-A Circuit Court judge here who held a movie to be "clearly obscene" said his decision was based in part on advice from a panel of 25 jurors he invited to view the film.

Judge Joseph R. Byrnes said he invited the group of citizena on a voluntary basis as a way of meeting the U.'S. Supreme Court's ruling that contemporary standards must be used to judge obscenity.

The jUdge;s decision upheld the state board of motion picture censors which had banned the film. The board's action 'was challenged by the film's distrib­ utor, William E. Hewitt, tradiD, as Rex Film Distributor••

Federal Justice Backs Customs Film Seizure

Refugee Reunited Wth Family For First U. S. Thanksgiving

NEW YORK (NC) ~ A Federal Court here upheld tbe government in seizing a 8wedish film as obseene in the first· court challenge to such • government action in 30 years.

Fereral Judge Henry, Graven .id the movie is "characterized by patent offensiveness," went ·substantially beyond. the cus­ tomary limits I;>f candor" in its treatment of sex and is "utterly without redeeming social im­ portance."

Initial Test The Customs Service seized the film as obscene last April.

While Customs has done the same thing with many other movies, this was the first time since 1935 that the producers of a seized film have contested the action in court.

Three film critics testified for the producer in an attempt to establish the artistic merit of the film. They were Judith Crist of the New York Herald Tribune, Archer Winsten of the New York Post and Stanley Kauffmann of the New Republic.

Other expert witnesses testi­ fied against the film for the ftOvernment, among them John Fitzgerald, film critic for the Our Sunday Visitor, national eatholic newspaper.'

Rev. James F. Kelly, St. Mary's Church, Mansfield will lecture on "The Positive Approach to Sex. Education". The public is cordially invited to attend this meeting and it is hoped that many parents will plan to be present.

Refreshments will be served following the meeting by St. Paul's Women's Guild.

Bishop Sees Democratic Government

Only Dominican Republic Hope

BOSTON (NC)-A bishop who should know speculated here that· the only hope of preventing further bloodshed in the Domin­ ican Republic would be forma­ tion of a true democratic govern­ ment by a tpird force to isolate the disruptive communists and right-wing militarists.

Home on a visit after 18 years in Dominica, Bishop Thomas F. Reilly, C.SS.R., 57, said "there is a popular desire for demo­ cratic government down there."

He added no one gained anything from the bloody revolution earlier this year and "in fact, the Whole country was shocked by the senseless savagery."

Bishop Reilly said interven­ tion of the Organization of American States ,and the United States "was a great deed of mercy." The joint action, he ex­ plained, "prevented a nation­ wide blood bath and confined the fighting to one section of the capital."

Bishop Reilly who is prelate nullius of San Juan de la Ma­ guana, said at the outset "the whole nation was whipped into hysteria by communists who is­ sued inflammatory propaganda 24 hours a day."

He said Castro-type commu­ nists also appeared on televisiOll

and urged the people "to get out

into the streets and fight." .

"We of the Church made fre­

quent appeals of calm and

pointed out how senseless it was

for brother to be fighting

brother" and also informed the

populace that "the Church was

impartial unless a communist

takeover was imminent."

Because of his anti-communist attitude the bishop said many threats were made against his life and property, but added they were nothing new. During the regime of the late dictator Rafael 'Trujillo he often was harassed.

"I am going back praying and hoping for peace because with­ out peace there can be no progress. Everything possible must be done to secure peace or the nation will again descend into savagery," Bishop Reilly predicted.

Aaron Henry, 42, of Clarks­ dale, Miss., president of· the Mis­ sissippi chapter of the National Association for' the Advance­ ment of Colored.

"You tell a Negro 'I'm sorry, I don't have what you want' rather than 'I won't sell it to you." But it cuts just as deep," he said.

Council Closing

Continued from Page One 1y approved the decree's final form: 1,954 for; 249 against. It now awaits a ceremonial ap­ proval and papal promulgation on Dec. 7..

Church in World The millionth vote was cast by one of the Fathers as last week's closing hours brought final suggestions for changes to the Church in the Modern World Decree.

The council's positive and pastorjll spirit was emphasised as the Fathers clearly explained the Church's repugnance of atheism but her concern and love for the atheist. It was de­ eided that there would be no by-name condemnation of Com­ munism.

In general, the decree's treat­ ment of matrimony and its prob­ lems was approved but more than 400 Fathers (22 per cent) asked for changes. The vote re­ ferred to that part of. the decree that states that marriage and education of children but it al­ lIO emphasises that marriage is not solely for procreation.

The decree merely skirts the problem of birth control since this has been reserved to a special commission by order of the Pope himself.

The exact nature of the Fa­ ftters' suggestions will not be known until the commission has collated them. Then, only the Fathers will know unless the speaker who .introduces this chapter when It comes up for ;l final vote next week thinks it· Important to state why the com­ mission adopted or rejected these 8Uggestions.

War Para~raphs More than 500 Fathers sug­ jlestion changes to the paragraph 4lealing with nuclear warfare, especially that which mentions nuclear stockpiling. It was an Indication that the paragraph might be amended.

Archbishop Hannan of New Orleans has led a move to amend the decree's treatment of nuclear stockpiling because he believes '"the present wording of the doc­ ument .. .. .. could possibly be construed as a council condem­ nation of the U.S. government's policy in Vietnam."

One of the guidelines that was supposedly followed in the re­ drafting of the decree was: ·"the text had to be more solemn and Include a condemnation of total war and a reprobation of the arms race, not as imputing to anyone government guilt on this subject but to speak descrip­ tively.''Archbishop Hannan held that It was "exaggerated and unrea­ listic" to say that war is an unreasonable means in the prac­ tical order of restoring violated rights. "Why else are we in Vietnam?" he asked. "The fact Is that a great part of the world has been saved from Red aggres­ sion by our (America's) posses­ sion of nuclear weapons," the prelate stated to newsmen.

Engaged Couples A Pre-Cana Conference for engaged couples in the New Bedford area and Fall River area will be held Sunday eve­ ning, Dec. 5.

The New Bedford couples will meet at 7 o'clock at the Catholic Community Center, New Bed­ ford, while the Fall River group will gather at the Sacred Heart School, Pine Street, Fall River.

Bishop Walsh to Mark Golden Jubilee 'in Red Prison . Maryknoll Prelate Serving 20-Year Sentence in China MARYKNOLL (NC) - Bishop James E: Walsh, M.M., will m.ark the-50th anniversary of his ordi­ nation to the priesthood on Tuesday, Dec. 7 in a prison cell in Red China.

The 74-year-old American prelate has been serving a 20­ year sentence in Shanghai Since March, 1960, when he was con­ victed by the Red Chinese of charges of espionage against the People's Republic of China.

Bishop John W. Comber, M.M., superior General of Maryknoll, said in a statement prepared for the jubilee: "We can only hope and pray that he will walk away from the walls behind which his captors have placed him."

Traditionally the 50th anni­ versary is one of the most joyous and festive occasions of the priesthood. But according to Bishop Comber, there is an am­ bivalent air surrounding the anniversary here at Maryknoll main headquarters, 35 miles up the Hudson River from New York City.

JOY Sorrow "We have feelings of both joy and sorrow," Bishop Comber· said. "Joy, because Bishop Walsh has been permitted to reach this golden milestone in his life; and sorrow, because we cannot share it with him, nor he with us."

Bishop Comber, fourth man to direct the Catholic Foreign Mis­ sion Society of America (Mary­ knoll) and one of Bishop Walsh's successors as· its superior gen­ eral, said: "The bishop is in our prayers every day and will be so even more fervently on this date. He no longer is a young man. He will be 75 next April 30."

Bishop Walsh was 68 when he was tried and convicted by the Red government in Peking. His sentence was set by the govern­ ment to be completed on Octo­ ber 15, 1978, which accounts for time the prelate spent in jail before his trial.

Bishop Walsh could have left China had he wanted. But he chose to remain, and subsequent­ ly became a prisoner.

Key Factor In his own words: 'lJrere in Shanghai I share the lot of Chi­ nese clergy who cannot leave, who must bear the brunt of all pressure and annoyance. They are the key factor in the Church situation in China these days. ·"There is some good, I think, in giving them a little help or' encouragement, if only a moral gesture. I like to be with them.

I don't like to do anything to separate myself from them of my own volition." .~.:--~

He also said, "Besides there's another thing. I am as meek and mild as the next person, at least I try to be. But I am a little tired of being pushed around on ac­ count of my religion. My reli­ gion is all right; I don't see any­ thing wrong with it. AnyhOW, I don't feel inclined to get off the earth just because some people dislike it."

Nearly all news about Bishop Walsh comes from his family. A brother and sister alternately write every month. Their letters are the only ones the Red Chi­ nese permit him to receive and to answer.

Brother Meets Brother Since his imprisonment Bishop Walsh has received only one visitor from outside Red China­ his brother, Judge William A. Walsh, former Maryland attor­ ney general. Accompanied by his wife, Judge Walsh made the journey to China in 1960, six months after the bishop's sen­ tence was announced.

Brother met brother on the afternoon of August 4 ­ their first meeting in 12 years. The regulations regarding the meet­ ing were rigid-no written mes­ sages exchanged, no photos to be taken, nor recordings made.

Gifts could be given the bishop but only after they had been in­ spected by guards.

The slightest infraction of the roles, guards warned James and William. Walsh, would bring

an end to the reunion. During three days the brothers met for a total of 2 hours and 35 min­

utes.

At present very little is known about Bishop Walsh's condition, Bishop Comber reported.

Remains With People "We believe he currently is in good health, but surely the years of imprisonment, the years before that of constant surveil­ lance and house arrest must tell on him," Bishop Comber said.

Bishop Comber reaffirmed the society's position on seeking the bishop's release.

The imprisoned prelate once wrote, Bishop Comber said, that "'I will leave China only when the communists throw me out, or my superiors order me to leave."

It has been his wish to remain

among the people he went to serve Bishop Comber said. "We have. respected this wish," he added. And so the only Amer­ ican missioner in China, Bishop James E. Walsh of Cumberland, Md., remains-a prisoner of the Red Chinese. fG Years in China On Dec. 7, 1915, Bishop Walsh, then 24, knelt in a small chapel in the farm-hoUse which was Maryknoll's headquarters here, and was ordained in the priest­ hood.

Three years later, as one of the first four missioners the Catholic Foreign Mission Societ,. of America sent out, he went to China. There he s(}Cnt 40 OIl his next 50 years in the priest­ hood.

"LOS ANGELES (NC) ­ The Los Angeles Times said the movie industry will meet with public anger "if it aban­ dons its "duty to maintain moral restraint.

"If the industry abandons its duty, and if it continues to wink at what can only be termed de­ pravity by some of its members, then an aroused public must make its anger felt at the box office," the Times said editori­ ally.

Its comments were prompted by reports that the U:S. film .industry is about to abandon its policy of "self-censorship."

"Over the years, quickened by competition from the no-holds­ barred foreign films, too much of the" U. 3. cinema has become gamy beyond polite description," the editorial stated.

Bring Shame "In quest of the fast buck, some American producers have forgotten that they, as purveyors of popular entertainment, have a definite responsibility tow a r d the public. Those who produce salacious trash, and those who screen it, bring shame to the whole industry. ""The greediness might, also, unhappily, lead to a demand fqr official censorship. The fact that a series of Supreme Court deci­ sions make public censorship im­ practical would not diminish the impact of such a campaign."

This Family Thanks God Today ,For Adopted Baby Boy

By Mary Tinley Daly Thanksgiving, 1965, means more than a, big faIDl1y emmer, with turkey-and-aU-the-trimmings to one young couple of our acquaintance, Maureen and Joe. Forever it will be remembered as the formal day of thanking God for an event which occurred in this month of November, an iD various stages of pregnancy. the showers were for event for which they un­ us,"When Maureen," one of the guests doubtedly thank God each said, "we never knew whether

"It was like • dream come true," Maureen told us, her brown eyes spark­ Jing. "I still can't believe it!

"There we were, Joe and I; the lIOCial worker handed me this .aft little bundle. We all filled wp, but we-Joe' and I-just lItood stock-still. We couldn't move a muscle. Then the social worker said, "Don't you want kI take a look at your baby?'

Well, that broke the tension. We looked at him, our baby and, tlo you know what?"

HHe was the most beautiful baby in the world!" eame the morus. ''How'd you guess?" Maureen laughed.

Special Shower We saw Maureen and heard the story the day following adoption, at a "new-baby show­ er" attended by 26 of Maureen's friends, most of them mothers of young children.

It was just a new-baby sbow.~ f!I' to paraphrase a song popu­ lar in World War n, "but 00, what it seemec;. to be • • ."

It was like welcoming an heir kI a kingdom, a kingdom of a warm and loving home presided over by young, intelligent, and outgoing parents, denied ehil­ dren of their own during five )Oears of marriage.

Maureen was ensconced in the mair of honor, presents passed to her for opening.

"Just can't believe I'm doing this," she glowed. "I've been to 8,000 baby showers, and now it's for my babyt" Maureen's figuring was per­ haps a bit exaggerated, but cer­

tainly during the five years she and her friends have been hav­

ing such showers she manfully~ 'or womanfully - attended a, n d contributed. Only Maureen must have known the wrench at see­ ing, one after another of her 'friends accept the "seat of hon­ w," others 'awaiting their turn,

to wrap the presents in pink or blue. You know you have a boy."

"Joe and I didn't care," Mau­ reen laughed. "Could have been boy or girl. We just ,wanted a EPISCOPAL VISIT: Archbishop Luis Aponte of San baby, whatever the agency de­ cided."

Juan, Puerto Rico, recently visited the staff and patients (Indeed, many oi these young at the Veterans Administration hospital in San Juan, where couples had been interviewed by the social agency, with, careful volunteers of the NCCS's hospital service work with investigation into background oi patients.

Watts Residents Receive Awards For Cooperation

Three Faiths Form Anti-Bias Program DETROIT (NC)-The Detroit Council of Churches and the Jewish Community Council have accepted invitations from the Catholic archdiocese of Detroit to open a joint office on race relations. .

The office is an outgrowth of Project Equality which the arch­ diocese launched last May. Project Equality has fought ra­ cial pre:iudice by requesting Catholic institutions to deal only with firms that have signed an anti-discrimination pledge.

The new office will have a $12,000-a-year director and is expected to continue under the name of Project Equality. The Catholic archdiocese will put up 40 per cent of the $27,000 budget with the C.ouncil of ,Churches' and the Jewish Com­ munity Council providing 30 per cent and 20 per cent, respec­ tively..

Local Education Boards in Iowa Set Policies

LOS ANGELES (NC) ­ Four civic and church organ­ izations paid tribute to the residents of Imperial Courts housing project in the riot-torn Watts section for a year of out­ standing cooperation in working together to improve the commu­ nity.

The Catholic Welfare Bureau, Catholic Organization, Los An­ geles Police Department and Los Angeles County Health De­ partment presented awards to 40 residents at a dinner, at which Auxiliary Bishop John Ward of Los Angeles was a guest. Some 50 Imperial Courts residents were guests of honor.

The Federally funded commu­ nity development program at 498-unit Imperial Courts last August completed a year of operation by the Catholic Wel­ fare Bureau and Catholic Youth Organization.

Initial steps in the program, said Msgr. John Languille, CYO director, "have been tested un­ der the most trying circum­ stances and tragedies, and cer­ tainly have not been found wanting or lacking to any de­ gree."

The Imperial Courts project, he explained, views man as a child of God and as a citizEm of the nation.

Assume Responsibilities "Religious and community ser­ vices are built on a principle of serving and workng with the individuals and families of Im­ perial Courts," the monsignor said.

"Joined together with these religious and com m u nit y strengths is a natural and in­ nate desire on the part of the citizens living there to assume the responsibilities that go hand in hand with their privileges," he added. ' "These two fundamental forces, one of opportunity and the other the desire to respond, have brought about an effect marvel­ ous to behold," the monsignor continued. A test of the strength of community responsibility oc­ cured last August, Languille said, when Imperial Courts resi­ dents took active measures· to prevent their community from involvement in the riots.

SACRED SONG: Rev. Roger L. Le Due, curate, directs choir members at' Sacred Heart Church, North Attleboro as Miss Lilliane Labrie plays organ. Choristers are con­ ducting drive for new members, have just completed course in background, goals of church music.

Saying, 'He Who Sings Prays Twice,' Guides Choristers at Sacred Heart, No. Attleboro "He who sings prays twice." With that ancient saying in mind, members of Sacred Heart Parish Senior Choir, North Attleboro, have embarked on a two-month campaign to recruit new members. They aren't going forth without preparation. Behind them lie six weeks of study and discussion. Among topics touched on were the role of the choir in relation to the renewed liturgy, the Church, music and aim at bettering themselves bership drive began Monday, the feast of St. Cecilia, patroness and liturgical leadership, as and their voices.

"We must realize that beauty of music, and present choristers well as its place in the broad is enhanced by God, its goal," are busy contacting prospects. panorama of the American par­ ish scene.

Also considered, under direc­ tion of Rev. Roger D. Le Due, curate at Sacred Heart, were the goals of modern choirs, their function, need, and present-day problems, as well as qualities looked for in choristers.

More Important "Greater importance has been given to the choir through recent liturgical changes," commented Father Le Due. "Although all Catholics now sing hymns at liturgical functions, the role of the choir has been clarified and emphasized to a great extent.

Choirs must now encourage, lead and teach the people in as­ suming their responsibilities, and must be trained to greater per­ fection in order to enhance the beauty of special feasts and to carry out difficult parts of the liturgy. Finally, the wealth of past liturgical art in music must be safeguarded while attempts are made to prepare for the new trends in music."

Choir members took as their general theme a quotation from the 'Book of' Psalms: "Let the high praises of God be in their throats." The entire purpose of the liturgy, they agreed, is to unite all men in one voice of praise and adoration to God. The sole duty of the choir is to share in this act of praise with its special tool, that of singing.

The choir will achieve its goal, said members, when it serves its triple role: to lead church music, encouraging and assisting .the congregation; to guard the Church's entire repertoire of music, old and new; to preserve choral art, directing and encour­ aging its beauty and perfection.

Duties of Choristers Choristers, it was noted, should develop a knowledge of Church music, be perceptive to liturgical change, be conscious of God (not self!) while singini;

said one singer, adding that the ideal chorister desires to serve the church and is himself con­ vinced of the importance and dignity of his musical apostolate.

Today's choir faces a special set of problems, said Father Le Due, noting that people must be convinced that singing isn't "square" or feminine... but that being a choir member is a sign of personal strength and indi­ cates one is making the most of one's talents.

"We must overcome the wrong concepts that many people may have," he said, "that the choir is no longer necessary or that male voices aren't important."

"The major' problem," he con­ cluded, "is to bring the choir back to its proper place, away from the theatre, poetry and arts, back into the church. Good will and. love for God will be· the greatest tools in bringing this about."

Active Campaign Present choir members are in the midst of an active campaign designed to attract others to their ranks. They have sent let- . ters to parish organizations and interested individuals seeking cooperation with the choir, and have prepared posters empha­ sizing the organization's role and importance. An energetic mem-

mine most policies connected with "shared time" or "dual en­ rollment" by private school stu­ dents in public schools.

In effect, the opinion cites the right of local Iowa school boards to determine not only whether they will permit dual enrollment, but also when such dual enroll­ ment would be effective.

The state board's right to pre­ scribe rules and regulations to aid in carrying out the provi­ sions of the Iowa school laws was also affirmed. However, the opinion added that "it is incum­ bent on the state board to give effect to the manifest legislative " intent as it existed in the legis­ lative mind when the statute 257 was enacted."

Retain Status.

One of the problems was that of determining the exact statull of the private student who ill dually-enrolled. S 0 m e groups took the position that such a student might be considered a public school student for .aU practical purposes-and, there­ fore, requir¥d by statute to tak~ courses required of all public school students, such as hygiene and physical education.

The opinion states: "The pur­ pose of this act will not be served by requiring private school students, who attend pub­ lic schools for an otherwise un­ available course, to take addi­ tional courses that they afe not statutorily bound to take."

The opinion also upheld the right of private school students who are dually-enrolled to ride on public school buses, as pro­ vided in a July ruling.

Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy There are many books heavy with information about th-e misery aff1i~ting millions in all parts of the world.

a ·tlarticular concern of the Council: The Lord had five wounds for us on Calvary; from them flow five blessings to us priests.

1) He has blessed us with a vocation, calling us to "that Love we fall short of in all love" and having known the full orb of love . we can gever be satisfied with a segment of the round. 2) He hu blessed us with the esteem, affection and kindliness of the faith­ ful, who reverence us just for our calling, even when in our heart we know that we fall short of 'the ideal. 3) He has blessed us (as He told a holy nun) putting us "in a special part of His Heart reserved for us" and by begging that as He "inimolated mmself for us, we also might be immolated." 4) He has placed our ape)­ stolate in the richest and most affluent continent in the history of civilization, a land so rich that we throw Into our garbage pails enough food each week to feed all of China for three daya.

5) He has given to us alone the key of His Eucharistic home and the frightening power to separate His Body from His Blood In the Consecration, thus sacramentally rene~ng His death.

Council Surprises

Continued from Page One holier the position a man holds, the "more manifest and lamen­ table his shortcomings appear."

Such shortcomings are recog­ nized by the Holy See, the Pope went on, "and we have taken measures to ensure that the Roman Curia will be appropri­ ately reorganized in accordance with the paragraph nine of the recent Decree on the Pastoral Office of Bishops in the Church."

Such reforms he described as: "no great structural changes, replacement of personnel, not a few reforms, some simplifica­ tions and other improvements."

The reform will seem slow and partial", but it must be "if due respect is to be had for persons and traditions."

As tangible proof of his inten­ tions, the Pope annolinced "a new statute will be published to legislate for the principal sacred congregation, that of the Holy Office." ~ Jubilee The Holy Father then revealed that he would declare a special jubilee from Dec. 8, 1965 to May 29, 1966 during wh~ch "preachers will spread the mes­ sage of truth and of charity, the message . proclaimed by the council itself, and (will) stimu­ late iIi the' faithful their sense of union around the pastors of their dioceses." . ' The Pope also extended or clarified the meiming of ''''aggi­ ornamento" which has, given so much spirit and meaning to the council. "From now on 'aggior­ namento' will signify for us a wisely undertaken quest for a deeper understanding of the spirit of the faithful application of the norms it has nappily and prayerfully provided."

Professor Com,piles Atlas of China WASHINGTON (NC)--Chiao­ min Hsieh, geography professor at the Catholic University ef America, is busy compiling ,what is expected to be the.1irst up-to:" date atlas of China to appear in English in many years.

The In­ stitute has since become part of the Academia Sinica in Peking, and Hsieh sometimes finds arti­ cles by his old prpfessors' at National Chekiang in ~ts journal.

Educators to - Meet In Chicago April 11 WASH,INGTON (NC) - The National Catholic' Educational Association will hold its 63rd annual convention in Chicago, April 11 to 14, the association of Catholic educators said here.

Meeting under the patronage of Archbishop John P. Cody of Chicago, a past president gener­ al of the association, the con­ vention sessions will be guided by this theme: "Curriculum for Renewa!."

"In the light of the ecumenical council and the need for an overall curriculum embracing the spirit of renewal in element­ ary, secondary, college and grad­ uate education, this theme pre­ sents a timely challenge to our program participants," an NCEA announcement said.

Mexican Prelate Hails Freedom

Edited by John J. Considine, M.M. From "The Church in the New Latin America" What conclusion should be drawn from a series of con­ frontations in which at practically every turn we find the Catholic family in Latin America living and working under-· handicaps which do not burden ,to the same degree the Catholic family in the United' .

States? Senor Jose Alvarez Honduras 20; Mexico 9,000; -Nic­ I d' t f th aragua 50; Panama 30; Paraguay · I caza, na t lOna lrec or 0 e, 150; Peru 400; Puerto Rico 800; Christian Family Movement Uruguay 1,700; Venezuela 1,500. in Mexico,' puts the question this way: The Latin American family is faced with a series of quandaries that we can well describe as vicious circles: 1) For want of material resources a life of virtue is difficult; for want of a life of virtue many Latins lack the necessary material resources; 2) For want of a proper home, of raiment and sustenance we do not possess properly integrated families; and for want of properly integrated families we do not possess proper homes, raiment and sustenance; 3) For want of proper sanitary f&eilities we do not possess proper living condition!! in our homes; and for want of proper Jiving conditions in our homes we do not possess proper sanitary facilities; . 4) For want of proper economic resources we are unable to improve our way of life; and for want of proper conditions of life we are unable to improve our economic resources; 5) For want of priests we are unable to possess a better Christian family life; and for want of a better Christian family life we find ourselves without sufficient priests.

S'olution Family Apostolate What is the solution? In their admirable answer, Senor and Senora Alvarez Icaza and thousands of C.F.M. advocates provide us with a new insight into a deceptively simple instrument which, limited in development though it be as yet, offers tremendous promise for the Latin American world.

This answer is the family aponolate.

Some thousands of husbands and wives have clearly recognized the role they can playas lay leaders in Latin America, have leagued themselves togeth-

Well-Balanced Program Most impressive is the well­ balanced and effective program which, though varying in de­ gree from country to country, characterizes the C.F.M. through­ out the continent: ' 1. Division of information and public relations The C.F.M. aims to carry its message both to people of influence in Latin American society and· to the general public. It has well­ printed bulletins, pamphlets and educational material, radio and television programs and ,excel­ lently conducted conferences and study clubs.

2. Division of instruction and formation The C.F.l'd. is notable for its spiritual exercises and retreats for' married couples, its discussion groups and conven­ tions, leadership courses on fam­ ily problems and ideals" yoca­ tional promotion and programs to aid seminarians.

3. Division of public apostolate The C.F.M., conducts extensive programs of pre-Cana nature and for the newly married; pro­ grams on family ideals for col­ leges, parishes and diocesan groups, programs promoting Christian relations between par­ ents and their children, and sim­ ilar means for promoting family unity.

4. Division of internal aposto­ late The C.F.M. gives constant attention to strengthening its own organization _by gatherings of an administrative nature, financial promotion, coordination of its activities teams. Senor Al­ varez describes how it works: We dwell ceaselessly on those ideals which represent values so precious for Latin America­ the spirit of charity, responsi­ bility, thrift, austerity, indus­ triousness, neighborliness, hos-, pitality.

• It is wonderful to see the, joy and purposefulness that 'mark the members old and young ftIl families who, have decided to­ ge:ther to work for others. Such families may' be ,poor but they join in the fight against the poverty of Gihers, for better

BARCELONA (NC)-A Mex­ ican cardinal told Spanish news­ men here that religious liberty has proved to be a benefit of the Catholic Church in his cou,ntry.

Jose Cardinal Garibi y Rivera of Guadalajara declared that re­ spect for the Church has in­ creased in Mexico since the Church and the state were sep­ arated earlier in the centu'ry. He added that the Mexican people remain "essentially Catholic."

The 76-year-old cardinal said the ecumenical council's decla­ ration on religious liberty was improved by adding a section stressing the individuals' obliga­ tion to see the true faith of Christ.

On another point, Cardinal Garibi admitted that the rise of Protestant sects is bothering Catholic leaders in Mexico.

"They have lots of money," he .,­ said. "They have built a dozen churches in my city of Guadala­ jara even though the churches , are sparsely attended."

Contributing to the continental structure of this movement, the Mexican group notes the importance of the Interamerican Union of Fathers of Families with its seat in Lima, Peru. It recognizes the role of such speciali zed organizations as the Interamerican Confederation of Catholic Education Associations With its base in Bogota, Colom­ bia.

Of principle importance is the Christian Family Movement which has been most successful in reaching into every country of Latin America. Its beginnings centered in the upper middle class but today it aims to accept families of all classes in each country, Its active membership of some 30,000 families is dis­ tributed as follows: Argentina 8,000; Bolivia 400; Brazil 5,000; Colombia 500; Costa Rica 200; Chile 1500; Ecuador 50; Bl Salvador 150;.GuateJDaIa.lfiO;

_Ahmann Urges -Greater Effort In Racial Field

Catholic University- Collection'

.~,

Continued from Page One "With the passing of each year, mostly through needs of the laity, this institution has grown in numbers and facilities. Last year, upwards of 18,000 students benefitted from studies covering almost every field, from the tra­ ditional Arts and Sciences to Nuclear Engineering. But reli­ gious education has always held a high position there, as the presence of thousands of semi­ narians, priests and religious would indicate. In fact the Uni­ versity reflects and answers ev­ ery demand for religious train­ ing and social responsibility "To meet the ever sky-rocket­ Ing demands, new dormitories and laboratories have had to be built. Anyone who has seen the campus lately could reasonably compare it to a municipal center, -so much the activity and SO many the structures. For the conduct of such an institution, the services of competent, expert ,professors must be had in ever Increasing numbers.' To meet these demands a budget of $15,000,000 will be needed this year. Nothing like this sum will ever come from tuition charges.

So we have to turn to the faith­ ful to help assure the success of this great university. This we have been doing for some 70 years and take pride in the re­ suits of our sacrifices. ' "Recently the Trustees of the University disclosed the need of an increase of twelve per cent In the contributions of each archdiocese and diocese in the land. This additional amount will not resolve all the problems but It will help considerably to de­ (cay present operating costs.

"I am confident that the Dio­ «:ese of Fall River will give an honest, conscientious account of itself. We have done so, loyally, in the past. Our generosity com­ pares favorably with other dio­ ceses. I am sure we all want the benefit of highly trained leaders among clergy, religious and laity, who will take places of importance in all that affects the progress of Church and Country.

"It is well to discuss needs and

dreams, but the real test comes in our willingness to make them come true. We profess that there is nothing more important than education steeped in religion and morality. Nothing fits a man or womar. better to the service of community than the association of high ideals with skills that dedicated educators develop, through their own competence and personal example. These are cherished ideals in our whole system. If we want them a source of influence in our society we' should be willing to suppo'rt our e~ucational system in its highest form. That means giving gener­ ously to next Sunday's Collec­ tion for The Catholic Univer­ sity."

Directs Triduum

Continued from Page One nary spoke as follows: "As we approach the comple-. tion of Vatican Council II, we ask all the faithful to join prayerfully with the Fathers that God may bless abundantly the fruit of our labor. The spirit of Pope John still hangs over us.

It is a spirit of love for all humankind, of zeal for apostolic works, of invitation and even summons for the laity to take active part in the spread of the Gospel.

"More than tHat we are aware that the Holy Spirit has been active in the hearts of all men of good will. He has brought us close together in brotherhood with Christ. We have all become men of high hope, and resolu­ tion to make the Gospel effective in our way of life. Like true apostles we await the infusion of God's gifts to inspire and guide us in living out ideals set by the Council for Our Blessed Mother and Christ's Vicar on earth.

"With this in mind, I call upon all in the Diocese of Fall River to pay special heed through public and private prayer to the carrying out of the Council Decrees as they af­ fect us. We will have special prayers of the Faithful on Sun­ days, Nov. 28th and Dec. 5th.

Annunciation Basilica New Church in Nazareth Marks Place Where Bl,essed Virgin Pronounced 'Fiat' NAZARETH (NC)-A major milestone has been reached in the construction of the great new church over the spot where St. Mary pronounced her "Fiat" to the message of the Incarna­ tion-a building work which for five years has been a major as­ set to the economy of this Arab community.

The great teepee-like dome, surmounting both the still un­ finished upper church and crypt of the Basilica of the Annuncia­ tion, and nearly 200 feet above the white rock of Galilean hill, has noW been completed.

'This concludes the construc­ tion work on the exterior of the monumental structure which was first envisioned as a special project of the 1954 Marian Year proclaimed by Pope Pius XII. But the work of finishing the interior will go on for years, and there is no threat of any sudden new economic recession in the home town of Jesus: The church-the fourth built on the hallowed site in the course of nearly two millennia­ will on completion be the largest Catholic shrine in the Middle East. The underground church, while bare and unadorned, is essentially completed, and some 3,000 persons are expected to crowd into it for its midnight Mass this Christmas.

The underground church was essentially only a vast subter­ ranean vault when Pope Paul VI came here on Jan. 5, 1964, and descended to the grotto of the Annunciation below to celebrate Mass.

Testimony of Belief The plans of the Italians archi­ tect Giovanni Muzio of Milan were approved by the Holy See and adopted by the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land, which has jurisdiction over the church.

Muzio has said: "This building must first of all serve the pray­ er. It must at the same time re­ veal to the pilgrims the precious testimony of the tradition, through a clear vision of the ancient, authentic and venerated remains, and the new archeo­ logical finds.

"Thus, the basilica must serve as a church for the people of

NaZareth, for mass-pilgrimage, and to protect, conserve and show the vestiges of the succes­ sive. basilicas which are the testimony of the continuous cult rendered from the centuries on the Annuciation and the In­ carnation."

tice, advocated here a united ef­ fort to organize, propose and dis­ cuss local and national problems of race relations in every possi­ ble way.

Speaking to some 300 persons, including clergy, laity and Reli­ gious of several denominations, Ahmann emphasized: "There is no, more clear obli­ gation for the Christian and his community than to love and treat others with complete jus­ tice. Not tomorrow, but today.

Not tomorrow, but as the Negro community says, 'Now!'" ''We do not, earn our salvation or worship our God or serve men tomorrow, but we do this in the 'today' of our lives," he contin­ ued. "In practical human terms this means that our church is totally committed to freedom in human society. The church is for racial integration."

"It means that any' Christian should support the right of a Negro to rent or purchase an apartment or a house anywhere he can afford and wants to go.

"It means that a Catholic real­ tor cannot in good conscience ex­ ploit a racially changing neigh­ borhood or the initial movement of a Negro family into a for­ merly all white area or suburb.

"It means that a Catholic em­ ployer must give the same chances to Negroes to compete for any job of responsibility that he gives to whites. It means that no organization of Catholics may exclude a Negro from its midst because he is a Negro," Ahmann stated.

use of Leisure Time," Mrs. Rob­ ert O'Donnell, Attleboro, has started an experimental class to stimulate creative ability of a group of local pre-teenage children. .

Mrs. O'Donnell explained that the group would work on pro­ ject.s based on the liturgical cal­ endar. Just completed are deco­ rations for a Christmas bazaar for st. John School, Attleboro.

The theme for posters is the Twelve Days of Christmas.

For Christmas, members will make shadow box creches, as part of a Christmas novena for children. For each sacrifice a t"' piece of yarn or straw is added to the creche to make a soft bed for the Christ Child. Mrs. O'Donnell notes that not only will the children be using crea­ tive ability In making the cre­ ches, but in making sacrifices, they will experience the joy 0If giving themselves.

It is her hope that additional adults will offer their talents in starting classes in fields such as cooking, sewing, art or handi­ crafts.

Dean QB Gain~ MVP Grid Award

By Fred Bartek

The schoolboy gridiron season closes today with the

playing of traditional Thanksgiving Day rivalries. About the only thing that is at stake is the pride in winning the classic game and a pleasant dinner' after the game. The three major championships

combine its first undefeated-un­ tied season in the five-year history of the IIChool. It also brought Coach Frank Almeida's Bulldogs their first Trl-County Champion­ ship. The Old Rochester scor­ ing came by way of two Domingo Pina runs, a pass from Domingo Pina to quarterback Don Door and a 92 yard klckofi return by Frank Cabral.

Hornets Place Second The Hockomock League 'cham­ pionship h~ been won by Franklin. Mansfield High is in second place and Oliver Ames of North Easton Is in fourth place. The Bristol County' Lea­ gue championship has been wrapped up by Attleboro with second place depending upon what happens on Turkey Day. The State's oldest Thanksgiv­ ing Day rivalry will be played at Sargent Field in New Bedford For 71 years, Durfee of Fall Riv­ er has battled New Bedford High on Thanksgiving. This year's contest should be close.

New Bedford III 5-2-1 and Dur­ fee 4-3.. A loss would give Dur­ fee its first non-winning season under Coach Don Montle since he took over the head coaching reigns in 1960. Over the years, New Bedford has the edge In victorfes with 37 wins, 26 losses and '1 ties. ' Records Mean Little Another big rivalry being played is Coyle and Taunton at Hopewell Park. This season has been a lean one for both Her­ ring City squads. Taunton has managed to win three games (one in league competition) while Coyle has yet to win.

Taunton has the edge for the first time in years. However, records mean little. A win for Coyle would make its season successful even though the War-, riors have dropped eight straight.

A win for Taunton would break an ll-year drought for the Ti­ gers. Taunton has not captured a Turkey Day game since 1954.

Another no-telllng-what game ill Attleboro at North Attleboro.

Attleboro already has the croWD but North could still end up in second place in the BCL. North has come on strong at the sea­ son's end. Attleboro on the other hand, has risen to every occa­ sion. The Red Rocketeers are 4-2-2 while the champion Bom­ bardiers are 7-1. A typical ex­ ample of this classic was played last year. Attleboro had lost only one game and North had won only one. Yet, North triumphed by a two TD bulge.

Dloeesan Clubs Vie A relatively new rivalry Is

In Catholic School EAST 'ORANGE (NC) - A $130,000 campaign to provide ad­ ditional facilities for Christian education, youth work and other activities at the First Lutheran church here in New Jersey was iIlaugurated by the congregation at a dinner held in the Eaat Ckuae Catholic Bip School.

The Feehan Shamrocks lost their' bid for the BCL title in losing to Attleboro. A, win over Stang would give them second place.

Dartmouth will be at Fair­ haven. This is a toss-up. Neither has achieved outstanding suc­ cess this year. Dartmouth has a 1-'1 mark and Fairhaven II 3-3-1. Last Saturday, Fairhaven dumped New Bedford Vocation­ al 14-0. The Fairhaven victory gives the Blue Devils a shot at a winning season which has been rare in rec~nt years. The loss completed the Artisans season.

Their overall mark was 2-6.

Cape Cod Color There will be plently of Cape Cod action. Falmouth is at Barn­ stable. The Falmouth Clippers cannot win the crown but a victory will give them a very fine 8.,.1 record. This marks the second consecutive year that Coach Paul McGuire's forces have lost· the title by one game'.

Barnstable'has a 2-6 mark.

The Bourne Canalmen' host Wareham. Third place In the Tri-County League is at stake.

Wareham is 4.,.2-1 and Bourne Is 5-2. This frac~s will be a good one, with the difference being Manny Britto ,who is one, of the state's leadil)g scorers. Ware­ ham must stop Britto if it is to have a pleasant !I'urkey Day dinner.

Case of Swansea is at Somer­ set. Both teams have had tough seasons, Somerset being 2-5 and Case 1-6 and both will consider the season successful with a vic­ tory in their traditional encoun­ ter.

Classic Rivalries In a non-league Thanksgiving Day game Dighton-Rehoboth hosts Apponequet of Lakeville.

Thill Is a new rivalry, but, at this point, It does not appear as though Apponequet Is ready to meet the FalC01Ul regularly.

Dighton has a 4-4 mark and a victory means a winning sea­ SOD. Apponequet has won only one game.

The Mansfield Hornets win be shooting for a whining 8e&­ SOD when the!, visit Foxboro.

A defeat will cost the Hornets second place in the Hockomoek League. A victory will give them a 5-3 season record.

Oliver Ames of North Easton has had rough sledding as of late. The Tigers hope to rectify it all by coming home from Ran-. dolph with a victory. The OA forces have a 3-3-1 mark after losing a heartbreaker to FOx­ boro last week, 7-6~

Prelate to Appoint Convent Committee NEW ORLEANS (NC)-Arch­ bishop Philip M. Hannan of New Orleans will appoint a commit­ tee to study the best means of restoring a 220-year-old former ,Ursuline convent, It was an­ nounced here.

The archbishop said he wIJl appoint the committee when he returns from the Vatican coun­ ell.

This makes the second M.V.P. award the son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Santos of 2315 Grand Army Highway. North Swansea has won. Joe captured a like a­ ward for his contributions as a pitcher on the baseball diamond there last Spring.

A former star in football, basketball, and baseball at Case High School, Joe did some nifty passing this year to account for or set up nearly everyone of the touchdowns in Dean's com­ pleted successful grid camgaign.
