Pope. Expresses' Grave Concern For Farmers

Holy Father Warns Against State Monopoly in Field of Education CASTELGANDOLFO (NC) Pope Pius XII' has told repre sentatives of European private schools that modern states have ,one beyond their bounds to ab sorb "all those greater sectors of public life, particularly the schooL" ~ "While this intervention is IIOmetimes legitimate," the' Pope said, "when the action' of indi viduals is incapable of satisfying the needs of the whole commun Ity, still it is harmful when it deliberately supplants competent private initiative." Family First The Pope placed the\ fa~ily first in the hierarchy of rights in education. He said' the com munity was second and the state' last. The Holy Father said the school is merely an extension of the family's .proper function' of forming the human personality. and that even the community Itself serves as a kind of school in this task. But the state, as a political power, may intervene only in a supplementary .role to insure the necessary effective Dess of the action of private or ganizations, the' Pope declared. . "A state which takes to itself . exclusively the task of education and prohibits private organiza~ tions and independent groups from assuming their responsibil Ities in this .field, makes a ~laim which is incomp'atible with the ' fundamental requirements of the human person," he said. Varicr.1s Attitudes '. "The ideal of the freedom of the schools is admitted by all political regimes. which recog nize the rights of the individual and of the family," he added.

But more important than ma terial concessions or rec()gnition of degrees, he said, are the basic principles which govern a state's attitude toward private educa tion. Sounds Warning. The Pontiff said many shades may be given to freedom of education but;as a matter of fact, liberty is sometimes admitted in theory when in effect it is lim ited and even opposed. At other times freedom of education is at most. tolerated' while the state maintains that it holds a true monopoly in educational mat ters. 'Q .

CASTELGANDOLFO (NC) Pope Pius XII has asked dele gates to the Ninth Conference of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization to try to c~te a return to depopulated farm areas. The Pope Said he was gravely concerned with the exodus of farm labor from rural areas and farmlands. He urged the dele gates of the 74-nation agency to solve the crises affecting agri culture, without allowing other concerns to deter them from united action. He declared that there are still too many people-' in the world suffering from hunger to allow the work of farm relief to be re tarded by particular interests.

The Bishops reminded that "God has commanded: Thou shalt not kill," and said "the con science of mankind rightly ex tends this law to all actions which, without due reason, en danger the health and physical integrity of any person." "A singular blind spot has de veloped in the consciences of many people who are in all other matters law-abiding and con scientious," they said. "We refer to the careless and even reck less use of the automobile. Many who would never dream of hand ling a gun or knife carelessly seem to lose all moral sense be hind. the wheel of an automo bile."

Bis,",op States Devotion to Mcry Can Cure WO,rldwide Disunity

Prepare to Stop Obscene Mail

Disunity among nations and the tragic division which pits man against man in society can both be overcome in devotiqn to the aJessed Mother, Bishop John J. Wright of Worcester told 1,053 women retreatants here in Phila~ delphia. Citing the increased devotion to Mary evidenced in the Church in the past century, Bishop Wright drew attention to the proclamation of Marian dogmas, the' growth of Marian pilgrim ages, and the increased popu larity of the·Rosary. Timely Theme "But the principal reason for the renewed affection for Mary," he said, "is that the worries which beset our generatic;>n are such as to invite the healing in fluence of the Marian doctrines of the Church." ' He cited the evil of "disunity present in every family, town and "nation, and among religions and races," This condition, he said, "makes the Marian title, Queen of All Mankind, a timely theme of the Church's teaching." The doctrine of the Assump tion, teaching the true glory and destiny of the body as the serv ant of the soul, is the Church's 'answer to the "modern passion for physical beauty" with its health cults, ideas of racial su periority ~nd anxiety. over the, physical, Bishop Wright said. The passion for the physical, he pointed out, "has given rise to more heresy in our time than in all earlier centuries." A third affliction of the mod-

'Frank Thompson Jr. of New Jersey announced the Post Office Department head also as sured him "prompt action" will be taken if violations of postal anti-obscenity laws are found. The New Jersey congressman said Mr. Summerfield expressed his concern in reply to a letter in which Mr. Thompson charged that many cards on sale this year "extoll drunkenness and make venal suggestions, and otherwise mock and desecrate the spirit of Christmas." They should be barred from

ern world, Bishop Wright iden tified as discouragement. He said that with two-thirds of the wo'rId under the heel of atheistic communism, the Christian might weB be asked: "How do you hope 'to survive in such a world, a world in which even your allies hate you and fear you?" • Insisting that discouragement is unjustied in thee Christian, Bishop Wright emphasized that the survival of Christianity "does not depend upon military power, nor upon presidents, nor philos ophers, nor diplomats, but in the submission of the individual to the will of God." He stressed that for its begin ning, Christianity depended upon the submission to the will of God by an individual Jewish girl, Mary, living "in a backroad town in a conquered corner of an empire."

CHICAGO (NC) - The past ,year was' the greatest in the his tory of the Catholic Church Ex tension Society in this country, Auxiliary Archbishop William D. O'Brien of Chicago, society ,president, reported here. The prelate told the 52nd an nual meeting of the society that society gifts totaling $824,492 were made toward the building of 110 mission churches and the repair Of 18 other churches dur ing the year; that $46,175 was expended as subsidies for mis sionary priests and that $95,544 was spent for the education of seminarians preparing for the priesthood in missionary dio ceses.

But since ,"human life continues as long as its vital functions ; , , manifest them selves spontaneously or even with the help of artificial pro ceedings" th,ere are instances when one is in doubt about the exact moment of death. The de termination of that point in such cases is the task of the physician. According to modern medicine death takes place "only when the circulation has come to a com plete standstill despite prolonged artificial respiration." There are basic duties in case of a serious illness. The first is to take measures necessary to save life and health. These measures are those standard ,for person, area; epoch and civiliza tion in question. Only the stand ard measures are obligatory. Ex ,traordinary measures ma'y,how ever be used. The second dut,)' is to provide for the reception of the last rites of the Church in due time. In 'the light af these facts the Pope answers certain questions which' had been 'submitted earlier. 1) 'In apparent desperate cases the modern techniques may be used. But there is "no obligation to do so unless it were the only way of fulfilling another' certain mQral d,uty"," Such a duty would' be striving to bring the pati~nt' to a condition in· which the last rites could be given absolutely.

In such cases there would be no "gentle death," euthanasia, for such is never lawful. 2) Extrme Unction should be administered while artificial res piration is being applied. If there be doubt whether the soul has already left the body the administration is conditional. , 3) If the blood circulation and the life of a patient in a state of' deep unconsciousness following a central paralYSIS are main 'tained only by artificial respira , 'tion 'without any improvement 'during some days, the Church leaves to science the verdict when death has taken place.

WASHINGTON (NC) - The Supreme Court has been asked by the Justice Department to instruct a lower court to reconsider its decision banning the importation of some nudist magazines on the grounds of obscenity. The government said that the lower court's finding may have· been based on too broad a definition of obscenity. Court Backs Bureau The Justice Department's position was made known in a memorandum to the nation's highest court signed by J. Lee Rankin, solicitor general. The case, known as Mounce versus United States, began when Mervin Mounce, a State of Washington importer, had shipped into the country 9,000 copies of Danish, Swedish and German nudist publications fpr sale to the public. . The Customs' Bureau seized the publfcations as obscene. A Federal District Court upheld the bureau's action, and the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth

Catholic Youth Workers Meet PHILADELPHIA (NC) - A national conference of Catholics in youth-serving agencies was established here at the sixth National Conference on Catholic Youth Work. Among the purposes of the newly established conference, as listed in its constitution, are the following: To develop a system of unified thinking on general problems that confront youth workers on a naHonal level. To act,as a means for bringing all Catholic youth workers to gether. To serve as a resource for dioceses seeking trained and pro fessional personnel. Officers of the conference are: Frank McGahren of the Brook lyn diocese CYO, president; Ben jamin' J. Debinski of the Balti more archdiocese CYO, vice president; Sister Celine, division director of the Los Angeles arch diocese CYO, recording secre':' t ary, and Bernadette J. Telgar sky, executive secretary of the National Council of Catholic' Youth.

Circuit in Spokane upheld the trial court.

Mounce filed a petition for review before the Supreme Court about a month ago. The Justice Department's memorandum to the Supreme Court asked that Mounce's petition be granted, and that the Supreme Court, then, without argument, should send the case back to ,the trial court for re consideration. Generally, the high court follows such requests. The government's move may indicate a belief that if the Supreme Court accepts jurisdic tion of Mounce's ·appeal, the tribunal may eventually re verse the lower court's decision because of a vague standard of . obscenity. Sees Conflict The move may indicate also the government's confidence that in reconsideration it can still secure a ban on the magazines, even if a narrower definition is u~ed.

, Mr. Rankin's memorandum ~stated that' the test of obscenity applied by the lower court did not conform with that laid down by the Supreme Court in one of its anti-obscenity opinions of last term. Roth versus the U. S. In the Roth case, an important victory for the government in its efforts to curb obscenity, the Supreme Court said that the the standard for judging obscen ity is: Cite Test 'Whether to the average per son, applying contemporary com munity standards, the dominant theme of the material taken as a whole appeals to prurient in terest." In the Mounce case, the trial court said that the test for obscenity "is the judgment of the avcrage normal, reasonable, pru dent persop of the community in which the publication is circu lated." Also, the lower court said that, "if. at the time of such circula tion, considered as a whole, it offends - the sense of propriety, morality and decency of such person, it is (obscene)."

Servncemen Now More Re~QgioUlS. WASHINGTON (NC)-Amer:' fca's soldiers now are "fine am bassadors .wherever they go," and are actually more religious than civilians, according to Chief of Chaplains of the U. S. Army. Msgr. (Brig. Gen.) 'Patrick J. Ryan said the soldiers represent "the cream of the crop," and he attributed this for the most part to the character guidance pro gram of the Army. Msgr. Ryan conceded that "morality hit rock ,bottom" 'among . occupation forces after 'World War II. But he. added: "The chaplains got their orders from the President· through .the Secretary of War to do some ·thing about it. The present char acter guidance program is the result.'! Msgr. Ryan, who visited army posts all over the world, SIlid the Army's religious program has never been' so strong. "Per centagewise," he said, "more .people are attending religious services than in comparable civilian communities." !'A young man who goes into .the service today," he stated, '\will return to his community as good or better than when he ~ent in', if he will only take ad vantage of the opportunities of fered him."

To Aid Labor Clean House TOLEDO (NC)-All or ganizations have a social obligation to support the AFL-CIO "in its courageous stand in defense of idealism and against the sordid realism of racketeering," no matter how they may disagree in other mat ters, said Father William J. Smith, director of the St. Peter Institute of Industrial Relations, Jersey City, N. J. He numbered among the or ganizations: with the obligation such perennial opponents of or ganized 'labor as the National Association of Manufacturers, the chambers of commerce and the giant corporations. He said: "If the racketeer elements are not eliminated from the Amer ican labor scene, if the evil ele ments should prevail, we could see a government-controlled la bor movement in America with in 10 years." Federal. Control More than that, said Father Smith, sooner or later both in dustry and labor would have to be under government control since an economic system connot be "half free and half slave." Father Smith said that unfor tunately the opposite seems to be taking place. He said that resort to a Federal "right-to work" law would be a stab in the back to the AFL-CIO. By stretching to excess the principle of autonomy within the federation, labor got into the pr~sent mess, said Father Smith. The priest stated that the union indifferent in itself, be comes good or evil in its use. He added: "The sane approach to the problem is to respect the right of the exercise of such a pre rogative but to take proper measures to prevent abuses."

Perfect Coyle Gr-id Record

Thursday the curtain +.om be rung down on the local IIcholasticgrid season. For some schools it has been a most successful venture; others, after a promising early start, levelled off in November; a few found the grind long, with only a victory or two ,have often proved to be mislead to show for countless hours ing criteria for evaluation pur of hard preparation. Thanks poses. Hodgson-Asack 'and Co. are giving is another day, how ever. The slate is, as it were, wiped clean, for success or fail ure in the Thanksgiving Day classic has a chameleon effect on the perspective of the entire season. For a team that has been in the throes of a losing season, a holiday win over its arch-rival insures a successful campaign. Conversely, a winning team to receive a "well-done" must close out with a victory. Spirit rides high in these traditional contests, often to the extent that past rec ords can be discounted. The boys seem to rise to the occasion in this one making upsets common place. They are colorful spec tacles, these Thanksgiving clas sics, a fitting prelude to festive family get-togethers. Here's how they shape up: Durfee at New Bedford Coyle at Taunton Somerset at Case Dartmouth at Dighton Mansfield at Foxboro Barnstable at Falmouth Attleboro at North Attieboro . Wareham at Bourne Whaling City Tilt Looking at these, contests in the order of their listing, Durfee, with one victory in seven out ings, will seek to recoup its grid prestige against the Crimson of New Bedford who own a 4-2-1 slate. The Hilltoppers are ex pected to be a much more for midable outfit with quarterback Stan Kupiec back at the throttle. Stan was injured in the Fair haven game a month or so ago and his presence was sorely missed in Durfee's last three tilts, all of them losses. New Bedford, decisioned by Voke 13-6 a couple of Saturdays ago, has to rebound against Dur fee to conclude a successful sea son, albeit a loss would still give the Crimson a winning year. This situation exists primarily because New Bedford's two de feats came at the hands of trn dtional foes, Fairhaven, and the aforementioned Voke. A victory over Durfee would go far to re pair the dent in the Crimson escutcheon. Durfee won' last year>

primed for a supreme effort against their highly-regarded 'cross-town rivals. The Warriors, on the other hand, will be moti vated, among other things, by a desire to make Coach Jim Burns' twenty-fifth year at Coyle a most succesful and memorable occasion. The Parochials won a 7-6 decision in 1956. Narry League Title One of the leading small schools contests in the area will be the Somerset-<::ase clash at Swansea. For the third conseCu tive year, the Narry League title hinges on the outcome, though the possibility that the winner will have to share the 1957 crown with Dartmouth, is a distinct probability. Coach Jim Cassidy's club, de fending league champions, will enter the game with a 3-1-1 rec ord, the defeat being a 13-7 re versal at the hands of undefeated Oliver Ames of North Easton, a teain that has now won fifteen straight games and is currently leading in the Class D ratings. Somerset off a 3-3-1 perform ance needs a victory to give them a winning season, some things they've a,lways attained ,the sixyear tenure of Coach John Simpson. Though Case has the better record, a significant indi cation that the teams are not far apart is the fact that both have played to late season ties with powerful' Dartmouth. The re turn of speedy Jim Rockcloffe, out with an ankle injury since the Scituate game a month ago, will restore balance to the Raid 'ers' attack which has largely been aerial in his absence. This one should feature a good Som erset offense against a formid able Case defense.

Prohibitive Favorites Hopewell P;:Irk, Taunton, will be the scene of the traditional clash, embelematic of the city championship, between the un defeated Coyle Warriors and the stout Taunton Herrings. Coyle will be shooting fOr its first undefeated-untied season in the school's history against a . Taunton team that has hung up a 'Very respectable 5-2 record. On the basis of comparative ~res, the Warriors, who .have liven up only two, touchdowns aU year, while averaging four • game themselvt:s, must be rated prohibitive favorites. But as we've said, comparative ~orell

Selects Wareham The other big Narry contest of the day pits undefeated, thrice tied Dartmouth against the Dighton Lions who have yet to win in league competition A win for the Green will assure them of no worse than a 'tie for Narry laurels.

involving once-defeated teams. Mansfield, 'one of the area's strongest smaller school elevens, which has sustained but one loss in its last 11 games, a 14-7 defeat by the aforementioned ,powerful Oliver Ames, is favored over host Foxboro. Barnstable travels to Falmouth for the traditional meeting be tween these schools. Each has had a disappointing season, though Barnstable very nearly pulled off what would have been the upset of the year had it been able to stave off a terrific closing drive by Wareham.' The Cape school did win a moral victory,

The Providence College !lockey team, ready to face many of, the outstanding teams in the East, opens it! 22-game schedule against American International College Saturday in Providence. The Friars will participate.in the Boston Arena Christmas Tournament playing Boston Uni versity, Dec. 26; Northeastern University, Dec. 27, and Boston College, Dec. 28. Coach Tom Eccleston, starting his second year as head man of the Friar hockey team, has his work cut out to duplicate last year's fine record of 12 victories and only six losses. With most of last year's team returning, led by high scoring Captain Lou Lafontaine and Joe Barile, the Friars hope to give the Providence College fans plenty to cheer about.

though, holding the explosive Spillanemen to a 14-13 score. And, finally, the Wareham Bourne contest rounds out the day's program. The host school doesn't figure to be a match for the powerful visitors who have tasted defeat only once in their last thirty-eight ball games. However, the setting was much the same two years ago when Bourne held the vaunted visitors to a 6-6 tie.
