PopeTakes Initiative From Reds All Men· Hail Encyclical's Blueprint for World Peace

BY FR. J. F. CRONIN, S.S. . NC Social Action Dept. Pope John, from the be­

ginning of his reign, has as­toimded and delighted the world by his paradoxical be­havior. He was advanced in years,. yet he moved with the vigor of youth.

He called Vatican Council II, primarily to renew the inner

. life of the Church. But the spirit ,f this Council has already attracted our separated brethren

and breathed a new atmosphere into relationship between the Churches.

He is gentle and kindly, pre­ferring exhortation to condem­nation. Nonetheless, he has made dec i s i v e and far-reaching changes within the Church, in the space of a few years. .

His latest· encyclical letter, Peace on Earth, is perhaps the most remarkable paraliox of all.. Here is a profoundly anti-Mar­xist document, yet it has much that should appeal to the com-

Most Reverend Bishop 'Marks 18th Epi~~opate Year onMay24Nex~t:

The Most Reverend James L. Connolly, Bishop of the Diocese of Fall River, 'will celebrate the 18th anniversary of his Episcopal Consecration .on Friday, May 24.

The ceremony of consecration took place in the Cathe-' dral of St. Paul, St. Paul, Milin., with Most Rev. John Gregory Murray, Ordinary of the St. Paul Archdiocese, con­secrating prelate.

Bishop Connolly's chaplains at the ceremony are now members of the Hierarchy. They were Rev. Russell J;M~­Vinney, now Bishop of Provi. dence and Rev. James J. Gerrard, now Fall River's Auxiliary Bishop.

At the time of his appoint­ment, Bishop. Connolly was

-. named Bishop of Mylasa and Coadjutor, with the right to succession, to the Diocese of Fall River.

He succeeded the late Most Reverend James E. Cassidy, the third Ordinary of the Diocese, on May 17, 1951 as the head of the Diocese of Fall River.

Tracing the Apostolic Succes­sion of the Episcopal Consecra­tion of Bishop Connolly, the first step in this series, dating back to the early fifteenth century, is Archbishop John Gregory Mur­ray.

His Excellency the Most' Rev. James L. Connolly, received the episcopal consecration as Titular Bishop of Mylasa on May 24, 1945. The consecrating prelate was His Grace the late Arch­bishop of Saint Paul, John Mur­ray.

Most Rev. John Gregory Mur­ray, who was at fitst Titular Bishop of Flavias, was conse­crated on April 28, 1920, by the then Apostolic Delegate to the United States, Giovanni Bon­zano, later Cardinal.

munist world. The veiled re­ferences to communism are kindly. Nevertheless, this En­cyclical will steal Communist thunder on the peace issue, just as Christianity and Social Pro­gress undercut the social and economic appeal of Marxism.

Pope John made history by receiving in private audience Alexei Adzhubei, son-in-law of Premier Khrushchev. In the pre­sent Encyclical, as will be noted presently, he widens somewhat the "opening to the left." But the basic tenor of the Encycli ­cal is totally different from the Marxist approach to peace and to history.

To Marx and Lenin, the state' is supreme. The individual does not enjoy rights, only privileges. By contrast, the Encyclical states FR. JOHN F. CRONIN, S.S. at great length and with pro­

. found eloquence the dignity, every human being has the right rights, and duties of the indivi­ to respect for his person, to his dual person. It bases these truths good reputation, the right for upon God and the moral law freedom in searching for truth implanted by God in the hearts and in expressing and communi­of men. cating his opinions, and in pur­

The specific rights explained suit of art, within the limits laid by the Pope are in sharp con­ down by the moral order and trast to Communist theory and the common good. And he has practice. "By the natural law the right to be informed truth­

should be governed by a sense of personal responsibility and initiative. Individuals should act for the common welfare for rea­sons of conscience, not as a re­sult of external pressure. "For any human society that is estab­lished on relations of force must be regarded as inhuman, inas­much as the personality of its members is repr.essed or re­stricted, when in fact the,. should be provided with appro­priate incentives and means for developing and perfecting them­selves." _

Government; of course, must have authority to enforce laws.

_ Yet since "authority is chiefly concerned with motal force, jt follows that civil authority must appeal primarily to the con­science of individual citizens, that is, to each one's duty to collaborate readily for the com­mon good of all." The Pope notes that "where the civil authority uses as its only or its chief means either threats and fear of punishment or promises of rewards, it cannot effectivel,.

Church Missions Take on Role Of Cinderella

DETROIT (NC)·- A vet­eran missionary has charged that present treatment of the missions makes them the "Cinderella of, the Church."

Fat her Nicholas Maestrini, provincial sup e rio r of the P.I.M.E. Missionaries in the U.S., says there is a "fantastic dispro­portion" between resources al ­located to the missions and those assigned to other Church pro­grams.

"In the midst of our current 'population explosion,' we may well speak of the scandal of the loss of world masses to the Church because of our inactivity and indifference to missionary problems of the Church," Father Maestrini says in an article in his community's monthly maga­zine, Catholic Life.

"The Scriptures provide in­struction by interpreting for us the meaning of life in Christ," said' Father F.A.F. MacKenzie, S.J., of Regis Coll~ge, Toronto, at the convention of the Societyof Catl¥llic College Teachers of Sacred Doctrine.

The Jesuit priest, citing the distinctive attributes of certain sections of the Bible, said that "the whole sweep of Old Testa­ment history shows us the loving Providence of God over the human race."

He told some 200 theology pro­fessors from the U.S. and Canada at the meeting that "the Psalms offer a virile, objective, utterly genuine expression of our rela­tionship to God."

The Book of Ecclesiasticus, he continued, "has something for everybody. It contains even humor (sometimes intentional, occasionally not),- profound psy:' chological insights, and beautiful passages on justice and charity in family, social and political life."

St. Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians, Father MacKenzie said, is attuned to people of this century-.

Views on Dating Sure To Arouse Controversy

MINNEAPOLIS (NC) ­Apr i est experienced in youth work said here that Catholic high schools should drop all school-sponsored social affairs requiring dates.

"Do not most Catholic boy. and girls have their first date at a school-sponsored event?" asked Father Francis Kenney, assistant pastor at Ascension parish. '

"Does not that date lead to others, which lead to steady dating, which leads to early marriage?"

"It seems to me," he said in an interview, "that all social af­fairs and maybe even varsity sports should be taken out of the schools and handled by the community. And there should be practically no dating among Catholic teenagers."

Father Kenney has worked with youth groups at Ascension parish for seven years and haa taught religion at St. AnthODt

Urges Study of Communism In Catholic High School~

ST. LOUIS (NC)-The nation's Catholic school super­intendents have said that formal instruction about commun­ism should be offered in Catholic high schools as a four­week course in social studies in one of the later years of secondary education.

It should not only expose communism's evils and its thr~at to free men, but more importantly, develop an appre­ciation for Christian democracy as set forth in the papal social encyclicals, they said.

The call for instruction, along with a series of guidelines, was' issiled today by the Department of School Superintendents of the National Catholic Educational Association during its 60th an­nual convention here.

, - Understanding Essential The department includes in its

membership the heads of all Catholic diocesan school systems in the country and a numbeJ;' of supervisors of major religious communities of men.

The general presentation dis­tributed here will be followed in October by a detailed course of study, the department said.

Both statements are the work of the department's six-member committee on moral problems, headed ;'y Father Herman H. Kenning, assistant superintend­ent of schools; Cincinnati.

,Calling an understanding 01. communist goals and methods eSsential today for young and old 'alike, the superintendents said formal instruction in com­munism ",ould result in:

Ignoranee Is Liability '1. "Stimulation of greatel," re­

Ipect and love for those princi­ples of theistic religion, both Ch,ristian a n.d non-Christian, which undergird all freedom, in­dividual' and social."

. 2. "The deepening of student loyalty and patriotism."

3. "The strengthening of civil defense (because) in the present world crisis, ignorance about the ._ ....:. totalitarian and aggressive na­ture of communism is a liabilit7 to the nation."

Resist Pressure 'The superintendents argued

against instruction in commu. nism in elementary schools be­cause of "a danger of creating an unhealthy anxiety about com­munism among pupils."

They alSo said that any at­tempt to involve students in dOmestic politics where commu­nism is an issue must be fought.

"A teacher has no right to impose his views on pupils; on the other hand, he has no obli ­gation to reveal his own polit ­ical preferences to them," they said.

"Above all," they added, "the . , teacher and his superiors must

resist the pressure of extremist organizations which will try to utilize the communism study unit to promote their own short­sighted interests."

Need Preparation They also stressed FBI direc­

tor J. Edgar Hoover's warning that the problem of c'Ommunist subversion and propaganda is best handled by trained investi ­gators.

"It is poor pedagogy and worse morality," they added, "deliber. ately to excite the emotions of young students against an evil which they can and should be taught to handle and to over. come with rational assurance and calm confidence."

The superintendents said it is best tha,t communism not be studied without preparation. StUdents first need to study the­ology, Christian social doctrine and international life, and American history and govern­ment, they said.

Teacher Preparation ID regard to instructors, the

luperintendents said: "No'teach­er can lead high school students through the maze of communist dialectic who has 'not himsel1 first mastered' and refuted t~e central proposition of Marx­LeniniSm."

Teachers must be prepared, the school heads said, to discuss with students "the fact that not all groupS claiming to be anti. communist are that in fact or are that in an effective or wholesome manner.'"

"Students must be taught to. discriminate in a mature and politically sophisticated manner between anticommunist groups, lest, while supposedly working against' (U)mmunism, they unwit­tingly become trapped into actu­ally doin~ a disservice to Chrill­tian democracy," they said.

Asserts Catholic' Schools Deserve Nation's Thanks

ST. LOUIS (NC)-Presi­dent Kennedy has said the 5.8-million student Catholic educational system deserves the nation's gratitude for U. work.

In a message to the 60th anni­versary meeting of the National Catholic Educational Association, the Chief Executive made a spe­cial point of commending the nearly 200,000 teachers in Cath­olic education.

"All in the Catholic educa­tional system," he said, "deserve the gratitude of the nation for the efforts which are being made to meet the challenges of mod­ern education.

"May your constant strivin, for excellence in the' service 01. God and country be richly re­warded.

"I especially wish to commend the dedicated teachers wholie work is so essential to .the effort."

Spurs Eager Minds The President's message W8lI

addressed to Archbishop John P. Cody, Apostolic Administrator of New' Orleans and, presideDt general of the NCEA. It wu read at the convention's first' general session Tuesday. '

Mr. Kennedy also wrote: '~Crossing the threshold GI

3 Papers in Italy, Right and left, Hail Encyclical

ROME .( N C ) ~ Italian newspapers, both right and .eft, have p r a i sed Pope Iohn's encyclical "Pacem in !l'erris," but more conservative papers have expressed reserva­Gons. . Rome's independent middle­of-the-road n Messaggero said the encyclical "distinguishes it ­.-elf above all by its admirable eoherence and a very closely eonnected logic between pre-. mise and conclusion. It leaves no soom for restraints which can offend, oppress or mortify the dignity. and freedom of the buman being."

Suffering Church Milan's influential middle-of­

the-road n Corriere della Sera aid: "This address to all men of good will is linked with what ean be considered with good 'ileason the .specific mission which John XXIII intends to Ci,ve to his pontifieate.

"It would be a complete mis­interpretation of the Pope's thought to seek to see in this seeking for peace, for unity and lor charity the preface to dog­matic innovations or a capitu­lation or weakening o.f the ina­lienable rights of the Church.

"C e r t a i n misunderstand­Ings were not lacking recently 011 the occasion of an audience ~~nted to an important person. froin a country where .Catholics ~v~ good reason to boast that they belong to the suffering ~,:,rch."

Open Arms Rome's com m u n i s t daily

l.'Unita called it a document "of eonsiderable .importance" and .iil:

''From a political and social point of view, the newest ~le­ment contained in. the encyclical .eems to be the one which John XXIII inkoduced in the last part, reference to the communist world, to its ideological princi­ples and to its concrete historical .ructure is evident. And here the Pope introduced a distinc': Bon between error from the philosophical and religious point of view and the reality of * * * forces of political movements which, though based on doc­trines considered erroneous by the Church, are active in the modern world."

Rome's so mew hat rightist paper 11 Tempo called it "the encyclical of enthusiasms, con­ceived under the sign of opti­mism and irenicism. To the well ­known deception of the oust­1letched hand the Church has al ­ways res p 0 n d e d with the generous sincere gesture of open anus.

Lauds Collaboration "It is its mission and it is the

bymn which echoes every year near the crib of Bethlehem and the empty sepulcher of the Re­aarrected." The editorial was significantly entitled, "The Dove end the serpent."

The right-wing Giornale D'U­alia said the encyclical con­demned revoluntionary methods. "It must be borne in mind that to proceed gradually is the law of life," commented the paper.

The leftist daily Paese Sera played up the Pope's appeal for a ban on atomic weapons and emphasized his reference to col­laboration between Catholics and non-Catholics.

PEACE: "Peace on earth • * * can be firmly estab­lished only if the order laid down by God is dutifully observed."

ATOM BOMBS: "Nuclear weapons should be banned."

ERROR: "One must never confuse error and the per­son who errs, not even when there is a question of error or inadequate knowledge of truth in the moral or reU•. gious field. The person who errs is always and above all a human being, and he re­tains in every case his dig. nity· as a human person. And he must always be re­garded and treated in ac­cordance with that lofty dignity."

INTERNATIONAL RELA. TlONS: "The same moral law which governs relations between individual· human beings serves also 'to regu­late the relations of political communities."

. WORLD PEACE AUTHORITY: "Today the un­iversal common good poses problems of world­wide dimensions which cannot be adl!quately tackled or solved except by the efforts of public authorities endowed with a breadth of powers, structure and means of the same proportions."

ECONOMIC RIGHTS: "Human beings have the natural right to free initiative in the economic field and the right to work * • *However, it is opportune to point out that there is a'social duty essentially inherent in the right of private prop­erty."

COLONIALISM: "It is not true that some human beings are by nature superior and others inferior. All men are equal in their natural dignity Consequently, there are no politIcal com­munities which are superior by nature and none which are inferior by nature."

VATICAN CITY (NC)-Pope John told diplomats from almost 50 nation!l that his' peace en" cyclical Pacem in Terris is a "great appeal to love."

MWe have no more cherished desire than to see the great

,human family * * * fin a 11 y gathered in union and in peace," the Pope d.eclared in a French discourse in the Vatican's Sis­tine Chapel to diplomats ac­credited to the Holy See.

He said he hopes that a "new energy" will animate the rulers of nations.

Brotherly Love

''May the charity that will penetrate their hearts help them to believe in the presence of God in history and to accept His law even to the concrete 'applications that it requires," he stated. "May they thus be induced to do everything, absolutely eve r y thing, in a spirit of obedience to a dUty which exceeds and trans­cends the life of individuals."

Recalling the Last Supper, where Christ instituted the Blessed Sacrament as the final gift of His message "of truth and of life," the Pope said, "the e n c y eli cal Pacem in Terris sought to repeat this in words which We hope -will be wel­comed and understood by all. We wanted it published on the day on which there sprang from

DISARMAMENT: "Jus­tice right reason and hu­manity, therefore, urgently deman( that the same race should cease, that the stock­piles which exist in various countries should be reduced equally and simultaneously by the parties concerned."

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM: "Every human being has the right to honor God accord­ing t- the dictates of an up­right conscience, and there­fore "the right to worship God publicly and privately."

MINORlTffiS: "Justice is seriously violated by what­ever is done to limit the strength and numerical in. crease of these minority peoples." -

RACISM: "Racial discrim­ination can no longer be justified * * * First among the rules governing rela tion between states is that of truth. This calls aoove all

POPE JOHN XXID for the elmination of every trace of racism." .

"HUMAN RIGHTS: "Every man' has the right to life, to bodily integrity and to the means which are necessary and suitable for the proper devel~

opment of life. These are primarily food, cloth"­ing, shelter, rest, medical care and finally the necessary social services * * * to security in case of sicknes, inability to work; widowhood, old age; unemployment or any other case in which he is deprived of the means of SUbsistence through no fault of his own."

FALSE pmLOSOPRIES: "Neither can false philosophical teachings regarding the nature, origin and destiny of the universe and of man be identified with historical movements that have economic, social cultural or political ends, not" even when these movements Qave originated from those teachings and have drawn and still draw inspiration therefrom."

New Encyclical 'Great Appeal to Love' Stresses Freedom a.nd Dignity of Indi·vidual

"It is in effect a great appeal to love which We sought to ad­dress to all men of our time."

Recalling that Christ washed the feet of the- apostles, the Pope said that it was a "precious. lesson which the Church has heeded • * * but more than the gesture, it is the spirit which counts and the lesson is not orily for religious leaders.

"Every cQmmand, every ex­ercise of authority is a service.

"The Pope loves to be called the Servant of the Servants of God. He feels himself and en;' courages himself to be the ser­vant of all.

"God wants all those on whom falls the weight of responsibility for the human community, to take to heart * * • this last and great lesson of Holy Thursday. And He wants them to see that their authority will be accepted better by their peoples if they use it in a spirit of humble ser­vice and total devotion to the good of all."

New York Times Sees Document .Buttressing UN

NEW YORK (N C) ­Pope John's suggestion~ for

. guaranteeing w 0 rId peace are significant because they have the weight of "an authority to whom even Premier Khrush­chev has made his symbolic bow," the New York Times has declared. . The Times editorial on the encyclical "Pacem in Terris" centers on the Papal appeals for a buttressing of the United Na­tions, which the newspaper described as· the cornerstone of Pope John's edifice of peace. It says that most of the suggestions and principles are already being practiced by the UN and the' United States, but that "too many forces continue to obstruct a fuller realization of the Pon­tiff's program."

Facing Bankruptcy The Times editorial points to

the financial 'bankruptcy now facing the UN because man,. nations refuse to pay their as­sessments, the recess in failure of the Geneva· disarmament con~

ference, and the continuing 'need for arms in the West to counter communist threats.

The New York Herald-Tri. bune sees "implicit in the ency­clical" an acceptance of' the principle of co-existence be­tween the communist and non­communist nations.

Extraordinary Courage The fact that Pope John has

issued an encyclical "based ·o~ " such an' assumption," comments the Herald Tribune, "is proof of his ext r a 0 r din a r y courage, strength and convictions." -

Urg·es Catholics Practice Truth In Unity Quest

WASHINGTON (NC)­Augustin Cardinal Bea, S.J., urged here that Catholics make themselves "servants of the truth" in the quest for Christian unity.

Cardinal Bea, president of the Vatican Secretariat for Promot­ing Christian Unity, summed up the spirit behind the ecumenical movement in the words of St. Paul: "practicing the truth in love." '

"Truth without charity is in­tolerant, and charity without truth is blind and will not en­dure," he told an audience of 2,500, including dignitaries of Church and State, at the Cath­'olic University of America.

The Cardinal spoke after re­ceiving an- honorary doctorate of sacred theology from the univer­sity. T):J.e ceremony was his last public appearance in the United States before returning to Rome.

Cardinal Bea spoke on "The Ecumenical Tasks of the Catho­lic Intellectual."

'Sacrificing Efforts' In working fOl" religious unity,

he said, Catholic intellectuals must have a clear vision of both' the goal to be achieved and of "0 u r non-Catholic Christian brethren."

He . said that means "an un­derstanding and respect for what makes them our brothers, espe­cially the grace of Baptism and all its consequences, and for what makes them our separated brothers."

He declared that it is not enough for Catholics to have 'a "clear but cold" understanding of what divides them from non­Catholics. Rather, he said, Cath­olics must have a "lovin1 under­standing" of non-Catholics and must appreciate "the great sacri ­ficing efforts" that these "breth­ren" are making in the cause of' unity.

Missions Continued from Page One

Father Maestrini,a former director of the Catholic Truth Society in Hong Kong, states that of 400,000 priests in the Church, only 25,000 are engaged in missionary -work, and of a million nuns, only 50,000 are in the missions.

Depend on Begging The missions, he says, get "the

crumbs from weathier parishes, the pennies of school children, used stamps, discarded clothes, a general collection once a year."

"The fact remains that the missions, the most important work of the Church, have al­ways had to depend upon begging for survival," he de­clares.

DesGribing this as a "tragic situation," he says its "only solution *"" is the awakening of the conscience of the clergy and the laity" to the fact that "the work of the missions is the first duty of the Church."

He hopes the Second Vatican Council will be the means of giving "proper priority" to the missions in the life of the Church; of mobilizing the en­tire Church .in the work of bringing the Gospel to the whole world; and of taking the mis­sions out of the begging busi­ness and making their support "as important as support of one's own parish."

Ohio Bishops Back Fair Housing Bill

COLUMBUS (NC)-The Ohio Catholic Welfare Conference has urged the adoption of a bill now before the Ohil' General Assem­bly which would prohibit dis­crimination in housing because of race, color, religion or na­tional ancestry.

The organization of the Ohio Bishops said the legislation is "sorely needed" to extend the powers of the state Civil Rights Commission in the housing field.

Frustrating Day Has Happy End As Daughter Fixes Dinner

By Mary Tinley Daly It was definitely "one of those days"-nothing tragic,

tbank God, not the kind to try one's soul, but unmistakably one to try one's patience. First of all, it was raining, not "the gentle r.ain from heaven" but the gusty stuff that comes at you from all sides, taking the curl out of your

.hair, putting wrinkles into your clothes and a crimp in your disposition. Furthermore, it was to be a busy day, so with the perversity of inanimate ob­jects, the alarm eIock was 45 minutes late in :l t s clanging, eaused - we were to learn later - by a power failure during the aight. That 45 minute lag at the starting gate set all at our house into a gallop, with little form but plenty of speed, and absolutely no organ­ization. Markle was late report­JIlg for duty, Ginny late for 8Chool, the Head of the House phoning ahead his apologies for tardiness to an appointment.

Jolly take-off this morning!

Full Stop Due for a 10 o'clock appoint­

ment across town, I slid the dishes into a pan to soak, un­plugged the ooffee pot and got

.myself into some sort of shape: In the hurry putting on a pair elf mismatched earrings and

. plunging a spike heel through ·one of the plastic boots. Never mind, rd be in the car.· • •

I was in the . c,r, all right! Zipping through the park, there ·was a gr-adual slow, slowing, ·.o-o-owing: Out ·of gas? Impos. atble. The ·tank was filled only yesterday. Yet with a teenager and a car in the same household .all things are possible.

In the park, oli the side 01. ·the road, not a telephone for two miles, arid rain. Like a sailor hoisting an 80S,· I sloshed out into a puddle and raised the car hood. Maybe some samaritan would be passing by? A kind lady samaritan stopped, asked if abe could help and took me to a phone.

"O.K., ma'am, we'll meet you at your car," came the ho-hum response after I had indicated the car's location. "No, ma'am we can't pick you up and take

. you to your car. We'll meet you 1here, fi'teen, twent' minutes. Another dame outa gas." I heard in the background as my rescuer hung up.

Five minutes standing on a earner, drenched to the skin, re­wlted in getting a taxi back to othe little green bug with its en­gme hood forlornly raised in • gestUre for help. Then the long, long wait. '

In justification of the teen­ager, hit me hasten to say· it w~s , aot an "out of gas" predicament.

Asserts Call to Religi'ou,s' Life' Is Privilege, Divine Invitation

By Father John L. Thomas, S.J. Asst. Sociology Prol.-8t. Louis Universit1

"How binding are promises a child makes to God't 1 ltad a serious illness when I was 12 and made a sort of promise that I would enter a convent later if I got well. I regained my health, but since that time I have had no desire to enter a convent. After nine years the promise .till bothers me. I've been itt love several times, yet IOmething seems to happen every time and I eventually lose the boy. Is God telling me that I promised to ~e Him an­other way? I read in a book that God doesn't make such bar­pins, but I'm .un very con. fuaed."

The book was right, Arlene; God doe s n ' t make such bargainS. The fact· that you are still confused, however, suggests that you either didn't fully understand what you read or failed to see its application to your own situa­lion.

Of course your real misfor­tune or mistake is to have kept thiI uncertainty. about ,.our childhood promise so long unre-IOlved.

,It .is always psychologically.and spiritually unhealthy to live with such a lingering doubt, for It. destroyS our peace of mind bF· giving rise to various con­.mOllS or unconscious feelings of IUUt and may also weaken our determination to presevere in anaking something of our lives,

*'ubt? Wen.. Arlene, let's start 'r considering the conditions· _der which a serious' promise

dedicate one's life·-.to the,.. ..-vice of God by entering a eon~ent could be. made. --Such a proMise would require

a reasonably adequate knowl­edge of what a dedicated life· in the convent implies in terms of meaning, personal qualities and eonditions. It would also de­maud due reflection and free eboiee, for such a decision in. YOlves one's entire life.

Moreover, since an essential element of a religious vocation • acceptance by an appropriate religious order or congregation, a promise to enter religious life an only mean a promise to offer oneself as a candidate to lOme religious order or congre­I&tion.

All candidates must possess the necessary qualities and ~dergo a considerable period of probation and. training beforepel~l~ve,ofG9d.~dneighbor....., they will be 'accepted. . '. .,. can' be fulfilled' in many 'di:ffer-

Wnding? PA '-I8KConsidering the serious impli­

.tions of the promise, as weB

.. the conditions and drcum­Mences under which It was ..de, we must conclude that it was not a valid promise and

therefore not morally binding.The fact that you later expe­

rienced no desire to enter a convent further suggests that your promise was made with little knowledge of yourself or

.of the religious life and was con­sequently meaningless.

Although your case may ap­pear somewhat unusual. I have chosen to discuss it because it calls attention to several com­mon mistakes that merit serious consideration.

First, as i have indicated, it is psychologically and spiritually unhealthy to harbor doubts or unrertainties in matters involve ing personal moral obligations. One should resolve the doubt at once, and once and for all.

Usually this implies seeking the advice of a competent moral director, since few of us are good judges in cases involving our own interests.

Once a prudent decision has been reached, we should stand b,. it and absolutely refuse to allow furiher doubts about the matter to trouble our conscience.

Sense ot Quilt

Second, a call to the religious life is a divine invitation imp17­ing voluntary acceptance or free choice;. it does not impose. an obligation.

.Unfortunately, some people go t4r0ugh life harboring a secret sense of guilt because the,. felt. they either had a religious voca­tion and didn't ......-.t it .or, ha­

--&- ..-I_~ entered the religion. life &US .....and .found it ··--···table, that

they should have tried harder to· make a success' of it.

Such people cart'J' a built-in predisposition to unhappinesl.

They'are Suspicious of success. while' failure merely confirms tti . th··· of ~.n em m en'sense 6W4J.t, for. they feel God doesn't want them' to enjoy. their present W8J' of life. Some of your'remarks about your COUl'tship experience.' aug_ gest that you may have a some-. what SinHtar attitude.

Implies Free Response No, Arlene, God doesn't make

such bargains. A religious voca­tion is a privilege, a divine In­vitation to serve Him in a more perfect way, but it is not an obligation.

Because of its special demands, it implies a free, deliberate re­sponse, not a wishful promise.

There are many ways of serv­ing God. Before choosing our way we should resolve our doubts and then give God the best that we have in the way we have freely chosen.

WeAre Brothers to All

God Love You By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen. D.D.

So often we meet college graduates who introduce themselves by identif)'ing themselves with their college: ,"I am an A man," "I am a B man," "I am a C man." Never do they identify them­selves by their diocese, or by their parish, or even by saying: "I am a Catholic." Could it be, that our coIleges are educating loyal alumni rather than Catholic laity? Are they preparing mailing lists of financial prospects rather than possible apostles of the Church, lay missioqaries abroad, loyal disciples of Christ?

A Catholic Is a member of the Mystical BodT of Christ, bound to the world, and even to all UIll'edeemed sinners, before he is bound to his parish - or his college. His diocese, his parish, his nation, even hiS ego - all are nothin&, but windows through which he looks out upon humanitT. The &'rief of the world Is his, the hun&,er of the world·is his, the tears of the world are his and even the sins of the world are his. Like Kin&, Richard D" he says:

. "I live with dread like ,.on, feel want, Taste crlef, meet friends."

In the parable of the Good Samaritan, It· was the one who was farthest away in terms of blood, nationality and human af­fection that Our Lord called the neighbor. We Catholics must realize that we impinge on every single life in the world. We are brothers to all. We stand and faIl together. If they are contemptible, so are we. If we are struggling after higher things, so are they. If we have visions, so do they.

Students throughout the Diocese are enjoying their annual Easter vacation this week. Many have gone away on trips while others are boning up on subjects at home preparing to start the final quarter of the school year next Monday. Vacation, too, is a good time to catch up on the reading that is so necessary for the well-rounded stu­dent. At Bishop Feehan High in Attleboro, assignments in read· ing have been given the students to be completed during the vacation.

Students from all over the Dio­cese took part in the Massachu­setts Youth Citizenship Confer­ence held at Bridgewater State College during this Spring vaca­tion week. From Bishop Cassidy High in Taunton the following attended as delegates: Louise Bury, Maureen Gamache, Mary Morin, Jeanne Andrade, Brenda Buckley, Cathy Campbell, Su­zanne io'ornall, Ann McDermott, Kathleen McGarry and Charlene Phillipe. The subject of the con­ference was "Youth in the Amer­ican Economy."

Also participating in the con­ference were 10 representatives from Holy Family High in New Bedford. They were accompanied by Sister Mary Charles Francis and Sister Mary Consilii.

And from Holy Family High comes the news also that word, has been received from the Inter­national Students Organization at New Bedford Institute of Technology that the 15 students who will attend a United Na­tions Model General Assembly to be held at the Institute on Saturday, April 27 will be divided into four' groups repre­senting delegations from' the U.S.S.R., 'Nigeria, Poland and France.

Possible topics to be debated at the model assembly are unifi ­cation of Korea,- military aid to India, admission of the Mongo-' Han People'.' Republic, trane­ference of costs of Congo op~- , tions from,' special assessmentS category to that of ordinary ex­penses covered by compulsory membership fees, and censure of the Republic of South Africa for its apartheid policy. Some of the delegations may be asked to in­troduce these issues in the form of resolutions.

Pan-American Assembly Meanwhile, a group of six

seniors from Mount st. Mary Academy in Fall River are pre­paring to take part in another mock United Nations assembly, to be held at Harvard Univer­sity on Saturday, May 4. All of the girls participating have elected to represent, if possible, the CommuniSt bloc.

., Kirk Laments Clergymen's ;;;··'Innocence' in Economics

By Msgr. George G. Higgins '.-<-,

Director, NCWC Social Action Department

Professor Russell Kirk, a regular columnist for the , National Review and the author of several books and,articles ~ On the philosophy of "Conservatism,H is deeply concerned about the allegedly widespread "innocence of both Protes­

'tant and Catholic clergy ~n , matters political and econo­nomic." He suggests, the

· word "innocence" really isn't · strong enough. "For innocence," be says, "read-if you will-ig­

'norance." ("Concerning the ed­· ucation of CleJ;:­

gymen," N a ­tional Review 1\1: arc h 2 6 ) •

. American semi­naries, K irk

'contends, teach , , their students · "next to noth­

tog" about eco­, nomics and po­: litical science and even less

'about the (to · hin1 rather rosy) facts of' con­; tem~orary economic life. The

result: ,,"' •• too many clergy­· men let themselves be ruled by 'vague sentiments which slide into humanitarianism··· with-Gut recognizing' the pit into which they have fallen."

Papal Teaching The remedy? "'Poverty, Char­

tty, and Justice'," Kirk eon­eludes, "might well be the tiUe of a regular course in most sem­inaries."

Up to a point Kirk's prescrip­&n reads like a paraphraSe of'

'., ~ent social encyclicals. In the encyclical "Q!Jadragesimo Anno"

- we find Pope Pius XI saying­elmost 32 years ago-that "All those who are candidates for the Church's ministry must be prepared * • • by an intense

, fiudy of the social question." 'Pope John XXIII made the

llame point two years ago in the encyclical "Mater et Magistra"

, ", ("Christianity and SocialProg­", I'ess"). .

"Above all," he said, "we af­firm that the social teaching

,i proclaimed by the Catholic Church cannot be separated from her traditional teaching re~ garding man's life. Wherefore it • our earnest wish that more' and more attention be given to this 'branch of learning. First of ell we urge that attention be

,given to such studies in Catholic ~hools on all levels, and egpe­,eially 'in seminaries •• *"

'Unconscious Marxists' From one point of view, then,

ProfesSor Kirk's column on' the education of clergymen runs parallel to what is said about lIeminary training in at least two of the social encyclicals of recent' Popes. . From another point of view, however, his col~

umn runs almost directly coun­ter to the basic teaching of these encyclicals.

'Professor Kirk singles out the , problem of poverty as the "best

example" of the clergy's lamen­table innocence" about political and economic matters.

Collective CharitY Some .clergymen, he alleges,

~ecome unconscious Marxists." They fall to understand, he says, that "the essence of charity lies in its voluntary character" and that "j ustice consists in giving each man the things that are his due:"

What Kirk is really saying here is that too many 'clergy-' men-in his opinion-are com­mitted to the philosophy of "col­lective charity" and to a class­

$100,000 Grant NEW YORK (lIi'C)-Manhat­

tan College here -has announced receipt of a $100,000 grant from the Charles Hayden ,Foundation. Brother Gregory, F.B.C., presi­dent of the college, said the money will be used to defray expenses in transferring several 'science laboratories from Hay­den Science Hall to an engineer­ing building acquired recently' b,y the university.

conscious and confiscatory con­cept of progressive taxation.

Collective charity, through the agency of the state-and espe­cinally through the agency of a remote centrali:~ed state-," he maintains, "is both less kind and less virtuous than personal giv­ing. And if this collective char­ity degenerates into mere taxa­tion of the prosperous for the benefit of the less wealthy, through the VOUlS of the benefit ­

' ing crowd-why, it ceases to be charity, and becomes first cousin to theft."

In rounding out his indictment of those anonymous "clergymen whose notion of justice cannot be distinguished from that of Marx," Professor Kirk asks how

,many of them have ever read "any serious work that relates Christian doctrine to our present discontents."

;~ 'This question' cannot be an­"swered statistically. But those ,clergymen who have a nodding

acquaintance with the social encyclicals will not have to be told that Kirk's social philoso­phy is at odds with Catholic

. social theory on tlie role of the state in economic life. ,. . On the particular pvint under

discussion,' Catholic social theory says that so-called "collective

'charity" in' the form of social welfare legislation financed by

,progressive legislation is not only legitimate but may be ab­solutely necesSary as the only l'e<llistic means of solving the problem of povE~rty.

Many pertinent texts could be cited in support of this conclu­

,sion, but a singll~ quotation from "Mater, et Magistra" will suffice: ". • • since social security and insurance can help appreciably in distributing Dlitional income ' among the citizens according to ',' justice and equity, these systems, can be regarded as means where­by imbalancesamongvai'ious classes of citizens are reduced."'

Cba~lenge May Boomeranc

If I understand Professor Kirk's philosophy of government correctly he would 'logically be· compelled to conclude that those 'clergymen who go along wIth ,"MCiter etMagis'4"a's" forthright defense of "collective charity" are "unconscious Marxists."

This leads me to suggest that Kirk may liye to rue the day that he challenged American seminaries to get on the ball and start teaching a regular course on "Poverty, Charity, and Jus-' lice."

'At least in Catholic seminaries the gradua,tes of such a course could be counteci upon, I would hORe, to support any number of

-economic reforms which would , not be to the professor's liking.

Bishop Willinl~er, ·speaking at a diocesan .teaeher's institute, pointed' out th,nt the pioneer nuns "displayed-the self-same character, heroism and self­dental that dil,tinguished the missionaries and frontiersmen with whom they shared their lives and labors. There was pov­erty, there were bewildering trials, unbelievable sacrifices, but the good nuns, bore them patiently awaiting the harvest that most of them never lived to see."

The Bishop added that nuns ' make an "intangible but mighty

impact" by their "prayer and , self-immolation". "These are an unseen dynamo in the heart of the parish," he said.

Girl Papal Volunteer from Boston Serves Needy Thousands in Lima

'"I just got tired of fuming about things and decided to do something." This is how nurse Virginia Jackson, a papal volun­teer from Boston, explains her presence in Lima, Peru. Her work among 90,000 inhabitants of the poorest district in Lima is the subject of an illustrated feature article in the May issue of "The Sign," nationa~ Catholic monthly magazine.

Since February, 1962, Miss Jackson has been stationed with another Boston nurse; Marie Knowles, in one of the world's biggest and poorest parishes, l\uestra Senora de La Paz, on the outskirts of Lima. The pas­tor, Father Andres Godin, O.M.L, is a Canadian. Assisting him are another priest, a brother who is a medical doctor, a Sister who is ·a nurse, and the two papal vol­unteers..

Health Big Problem "Tuberculosis, pneumonia and

typhoid stalk the district for their daily prey," the article re­ports. "Parasites of all sorts· bring other unspeakable dis­eases. Principal command post in the defense of these 90,000

Says People Rea lize Dependence On God

ST. LOUIS (NC) - People throughout the world are begin­ning to realize more their depen­dence upo~ God, Joseph Cardinal Ritter said here.

"I think in spite of all the cloudiness and discouragement that we hear about, that people and nations are coming closer all the time to recognizing their dependence u p 0 n Almighty God," he told the annual meet­ing of the St. Louis Catholic Charities' board of governors.

People may not recognize their deoendence upon God through the formal means of re­ligious establishments," he said. "But surely science is making it more and more clear the impos­sibility of meeting the problems of life--particularly social prob­lems--without God's help."

lives is the adobe·built clinic. Here the nurses wrestle against diseases--and often win." -

Virginia Jackson and Marie Knowles are two of 30 nurses, sent by their home dioceses, serving as papal volunteers in half a dozen Latin American countries. Staffing clinics, house to house visiting, and training local girls in the rudiments of nursing are the main tasks iR which they are involved.

Health is one of the great problems in Latin America. In many rural areas, and in big city slums, infant mortality runs as high as 50 per cent. Among the Indian population of- the Andes tuberculosis is a. major source of death at all ages. Pub­lic health programs of the type in which the papal volunteers are engaged are an urgent nec­essity.

Gives Away Money Nurses are needed in the

United States but, as The Sign article reports, papal volunteers, like Virginia Jackson, feel that the poor, disease.ridden people of Peru's slums need them even more.

Of her task the article com­ments: "She works six grinding, dawn·to.dusk days a week amid teeming squalor, and she is con­stantly on call the rest of the time. Instead of $7000 a year, she is given $10 a week pocket money-and she gives most of that away. There's not much to buy in a barriada.

"Instead of career-girling it, she expends her brief evenings studying more Spanish and sort.: ing medicines under the squinty light of a kerosene lamp. All of this is because there are quali ­ties in Virginia that can't be bought for all the money, fringe benefits and beans in Boston."

Directing the Papal Volunteer program for the Fall River Dio­cese is Msgr. Raymond T. Consi. dine, Propagation of the Faith Office, 368 North Main Street, Fall River. In addition to nurses, volunteers possessing other skills are needed in. the program.

Charges College Educators Unfair Blame Elementary Sc hools for Problems

ST. LOurS (NC) - An Illinois . school superintendent said here there has been too much unfair criticism of Catholic elementary schools and not enough recog­nition that they have done their job "supremely well."

Fat her John J. Sweeney, Peoria diocesan school head, charged yesterday that the only voices heard recently from Catholic education have been Catholic college educators criti ­cal of alleged failures in the Church educational system.

"I refuse to accept the blame any longer at the elementary level for the problems of the Catholic colleges and univer­sities," he told a session of the National Catholic Educational Association's 60th anniversary convention.

"And I wish," he added, "that the critics of Catholic education within our ranks would properly

. identify the area of the problem at its proper level.

'Separate Dynasties' "Why should we in Catholic

elementary education be blamed for the inadequacies of the Catholic colleges and universi ­ties, when we have done our job supremely well?" he asked.

He said Catholic college edu­cators have been complaining about the alleged weakness of higher education.

"Had they not been so con­cerned with building their own separate dynasties, and a little more willing to cooperate with

Father Sweeney launched en­thusiastically into what he called "my bold contention" that Cath­olic elementary schools have strengthened the faith of Ameri­can Catholics, provided a basic education "every bit as good if not better" than- public schools and produced "first-class patrio­tic American citizens."

It was a common-place among US that thoSE' gentry who made a living by collecting and processing other people's opinions on all, ma tter sand sundry w er e either fools or knaves, possibly both. ,Never for • minute trust • poll, quoth we, and always treat a pollster with the contumely he deserves.

Now the obvious explanation cal our prejudice was that we so

"I'al'ely found the results in con­formity with our own sacrosanct opinions. If we abominated a certain politician, whereas the pollsters 'could cite chapter and yerse to prove his popularity, we cried a murrain upon their heads.

If we thought a law should be enacted to enforce our favorite puritanism, and discovered, from the samplings, that we were isolated in our ivory tower, we questioned at once the me­manics and the value of the process: And besides, why was it that we ourselves were never polled?

On Side of Angels But now, it seems, all this is

changed. Mr. Gallup has come up on the side of the angels. What a nob~<. fellow he is, and how infallible are his forecasts! And who could dOl\bt the valid­Ity of his methods?

True, it is only a matter of 48 per cent of those contacted, who thought that way, while a' slightly smaller percentage re­mained obdurate in opposition and a fragment' confessed igno­rance and confusion about the whole thing.

Advises Caution In all seriousness, ,it strikes

this writer that we should be extremely cautious in accepting

'these figures at full value. This .. not to question the worth of testing and sampling, and we have not the slightest prejudice. against the Gallup Poll.

But we do believe that the'.- significance of this item ,can be exaggerated out of all corre­spondence with reality and can suggest a higher level of agree­ment on this vastly controversial matter than is in fact present in the national mind.

Polls have their uses, but polls have also been known to be wild­b' inaccurate. In this instance we should know a great deal more about the mechanics, where it was taken and how the question was formulated, before

Plan New Seminary In Ohio Community • HIGHLAND HEIGHTS (NC) -The Blessed Sacrament Fathers have . announced plans. to build a new six-year-major seminary adjoining their present St. Pas­chal Monastery on a 26-acre site here in Ohio.

It will accommodate 60· stu­dents. Groundbreaking is sched­uled for late June. The new seminary which will be com­pleted by September 1964, will replace the community's present but smaller major seminary, St. Joseph's, on the outskirts of Cleveland.

Set in Opposition It is likely enough that a great

many Americans - perhaps a fourth of the people - really do not much care one way or the other. The only argument which might jerk them from lethargy is the threat of increased taxa­tion as a result of including the non-public or church-related schools (why can't we come up with a decent generic name for these objects of 0111" concern?) in a federal aid program.

Many more would oppose their inclusion for reasons which are silly or flimsy, and ought to be quickly dispelled were it possible to reach into th,eir minds.

So far we have not devised a satisfactory means of presenting the rational side of the debate, so as to penetrate this enormous group.

Then, of course, there is the hard core of those whose minds are set in opposition, who are determined to fight to the last ditch, 'who are convinced of the "wall of .>eparation" theory, and who see in our concern for jus­tice nothing more than another and deadlier phase of Catholic aggression.

Sees Long Road Ahead So, in spite of Mr. Gallup's

consolatory figures we very much doubt whether 49 per cent of America, at this date, is actu­ally in favor of participation by the non-state-supported schools (again, this fearsome terminol­ogy!) in any significant appor­tionment of federal monies.

The shift in pu.blic opinion seems to us to have come much too rapidly to be wholly reli. able.. Any "grass-roots" c~­

paign we may have conducted, in a neighborly sort of way, might have been expected to pay off in a decade or so, but not quite so fast.

The plain truth is that we have much to do, and long, hard road to travel, before America, Protestant in tradition and Secu­larist in oractice, will be ready to see the justice of the cause and to act upon it. To para­phrase an old saw, let us be sure the tide has turned back before we cast our bread upon the waters.

Fat her Philip Sephomolo, O.M.I., who was born in Basuto­land and is studying philosophy at the university, was celebrant of the Mass. His servers were two Basutoland-born deacons studying for the priesthood at St. Joseph's Scholasticate of the Oblate Fathers.

Two African-born nuns from the Wbite Sisters of Africa beat the tom-toms and a choir of Al.­rican students of the University of Ottawa sang the "Missa Ruanda."

Foreign Press Praise London Times Editorial Sees Wide, Appeal

For Peace on Earth Document LONDON (NC) - The Lon­

don Times has commented that the new Papal encyclical on peace has the power to persuade all men, not just Catholics. This interpretation was promptly confirmed by action of members of the British Parliament.

"In his brief reign Pope John XXIII has done a remarkable amount to adapt Roman Catho­lic thought to the modem world," editorialized the Times. "His argument i~ framed to per­suad~, men of all religions or of none." ,

The encyclical was given wide notice in the British press, with several newspapers interpreting it as implying a new Vatican policy towards communism. The communist Daily Workers head­lined the document as "a moving appeal" and gave it a factual're­port.

'Much to Ponder The Times said, in addition to

his comment about the encycli:. cal's wide appeal, that it con­tained a clear attempt to develop a new approach to communism. The paper quoted extracts to show that the Pope was making a distinction between commu­nist theory and practice. It said these quotations were likely to cause discomfort in the countries where the Church is deeply en­meshed in politics. The Tiines' Rome correspondent wrote that tl.le encyclical showed a "some­what pragmatic attitude towards the problem of communism."

,But the London Daily Tele­graph saw in the encyclical "nothing for any politician to resent and much for all politi ­

, cians to ponder." The Daily Ex­press said the Pope spoke in "more tolerant tones than any Western political leader is likely to use about communism.

ror' carried the headHne "The Pope Looks to the Left," adding that "observers saw most signi­ficance in the - passages which raised prospects ,of practical col­laboralion between Catholics and the left."

Heightens Respect The Socialist Daily Herald

called the encyclical "probably the • most politically charged document ever isSUed from the Vatican." Its Rome correspon­dent commented that the Pope was believed confident the en­cyclical would have enormous world impact, "especially be­hind the Iron Curtain where his progressive views have earned him wide respect."

A London Evening Standard­cartoon showed a benevolent Pope carrying the banner of the supporters of nuclear disarma­ment, who lead an annual "ban the bomb" march in Britain on Easter weekend.

u.s. Government Lauds Encyclical

WASHni'GTON (NC) - The United States officially praised the peace encyclical of Pope JOhn and said that "no country could be more responsive" to its reassertion of the dignity of man and his right to peace and free· dom.

The statement, made public by Press Department Offi ­cer Lincoln White the day after Pacem in Terris was issued, be­gan by saying:

"The United States govern. ment warmly welcomes the stirring message by His Holiness Pope John XXIII to all men of good will. Pacem in Terris is an historic encyclical worldwide in its import and strongly in keep' ing with the spirit of the ecu­menical conference."

First Time White in answer to questions

said that the statement was is­sued with the knowledge of President Kennedy. He said he believed it was the first time in history that the United States government had commented on a papal encyclical.

The official statement said that the Pope in his peace mes­sage had voiced "the desire of mankind the world over."

It Better Be Tuna On Second Thought

BAY CITY (NC) - Father Kevin Kenny, C.P., was telling a parents' meeting here in Michigan that it's ridiculous for eighth and ninth grade students to go to dances every Frida,. evening.

"Get them interested in sports,," he urged. "Let them go to a ball game. Later they can get a hamburger and then go home."

''Well, perhaps a tuna fish sandwich might . be better," Father Kenny conceded to an objection from the floor.
