The Catholic teacher must '''labor to develop all that is uniquely divine in the student, and, with equal zeal, foster all that is,uniquely human -trying to' fuse both processes in the imitation of Christ."
This statement by Dr. James J. Cribbin, keynote speaker, expressed the theme of the highly successful third annual convention of the Catholic Teachers' Association of the Diocese of Fall River, held last week at S1. Anne's School.
The teacher, said Dr. Cribbin, a professor at New York University, has the difficult task of giving "the. student a vision of what he can be and do-and translating this into day to day

1920 Regulations Permit Cardinal to Offer Mass
ROME (Nd) - His Eminence Samuel Cardinal Stritch. whose right arm was amputated in an operation here, will celebrate Mass despite his loss.
To do so the Archbishop of Chicago, recently named Pro-Prefect of the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith, will avail himself of an instruction issued here on JanuarY 28, 1920.
The instruction, issued by the Sacred Congregation of Rites and approved by Pope Benedict XV, lists the special conditions to be observed by "priests who, deprived of their right arm, have received apostolic dispensation :for the celebration of Mass."
It outlin'es in detail all the acts.to be performed both by the celebrant and the priest assist ing him. The essential condition is that a priest without a right arm must always be assisted by another priest who will help him in all stages of the Mass.
The infirm priest will trace the sigh of the cross with his left hand over himself, the sacred vessels and the people present. Whenever liturgical norms pro
vide that the celebrant is to hold his hands together in front of his chest, the infirm priest will normally perform this act with his left hand alone, unless he can conveniently avail himself of an 'artificial right hand which will enable him to observe the norm· al liturgical requirement.
The assistant priest will turn the pages of the missal and will, for precautionary reasons, assure the stability of the chalice with the fingers of his left hand whenever the celebrant covers or uncovers it.
The instruction also deals with certain special details for the purpose of ensuring the regular celebration of the Mass with special reference to the Conse· cration and· Communion.
The document bears the signa. ture of the Prefect of the Congregation of Rites, Cardinal An· tonio Vice, and its Secretary of that time, Cardinal Alessandro Verde, who died here recently.

Dutch 'Subsidize Catholic .Sc~ools
o PEORIA (NC) - The. Dutch· Socialist Labor Party and the Catholic People's Party ar~' pn opposite sides of the fence. 6n plenty of issues, admits Dr. An-. toon M. Lucas, but when it com.es to the state's duty to give 'financial support to religious schools, there is only agreement.
Dr. ·Lucas, a 12-year veteran of the Dutch parliament, is Cathoiic party spokesman on economic ~atters i'n the lower house..' 0
The attitude of the Catholic pa'rty, Dr. Lucas explained, is: "We don't agree that we should pay taxes for the public schools and, at the same time', pay for our own schools."
"The 'result;' he added, was that "Catholics insisted on equalsuhsidies. Now taxes are "equally divided --:lIJ'iong the schools."

NEW YORK (NC)-"Mutual cooperation" in' program production between .the radio and television 'industries?' and the Church was' studied' at a .m'eeting here of top broadcasting execu:" tives with 5'1 diocesan radio and

The two-day meeting, held under the- auspices of the Bi!jhops' Committee, brought together the industry executives and diocesan directors for a discussion of His Holiness Pope Pius XII's encyclical on radio, tele
, vision and motion pict-ures.. Entitled- "Miranda ,Prorsus"
(Remarkable Inventions), the encyclical was issued in September, 1957. It deals with the potential for good or evil in mass communications media. • In November, 1957, the 'Bishops' Committee announced that it would undertake a study of the most suitable and acceptable
/ means .of carrying out the aims of the encyclical.

3 Asserts Better Public Relations Would Offset Growing Tensions
CINCINNATI (NC) - Protestant-Catholic tensions are growing in four important areas a priest-editor asserted here.'
Jesuit Father Thurston Davis editor of America, a nationai Catholic weekly, listed the four major sources of tensions as: the possibility of a Catholic president, the "parochial school qiJestion" censorship and birth control. '
There is a job of public relations to be done for the Church, Father Davis said, to interpret the Church's stand on controversial matters to Protestants and others. Moreover, this is a job "primarily for laymen," not only through organizations, but as individuals, too.
"In the last analysis," he said, "it will be individuals, solidly trained: intelligent Catholi.cs, who Will h~ve t~ grapple wIth t~ese questions In a thousand. dlC:ere,:,t ~ays on every level of dally life. .
.. C~thohc President OccaslOna~ly you hear a Pro
testant pulpl.t echo the theme that a Cath?hc ca~,not be electe~ to the presidency, Father DavIs said. "You hear that 'allegiance to a foreign potentate' would automatically put him out of the running." . 'I'he" most powerful refutation"
of the vicious libel that" loyalty"to oiJr faith subverts loyalty 'to', our nation" is the example of Catholics living their lives accoI'ding to Christian principles, he declared.
Parochial Schools Turning to the question of
parochial schools, Father Davis said tensions come not so much from attacks by anti-Catholic extremists, as "from the great mass of Protestant people who simply don't know what we're talking about when we say we need religious schools in order to integrate our knowledge of God with secular knowledge."
"We have a real seIling job to do," he continued, "to explain our reasons-I believe once we talk out with them the true, meaning of our schooU!, half of the battle will be won.
"The better we understand our faith, the more we know of constitutional law, and the more reasonable and persuasive we are, the more effective we will be iri relieving these tensions."
Need Non-Calholic Help Another area in which Cath
olic efforts are misunderstood is that of censorship, he said. . "I suspect that the public morality aspect of censorship is seldom 'discussed in Protestant circles" Father Davis remarked. "I~-stead they talk of'Catholic pressure' Catholic intolerance."
"I~ the battle for public morality, however, we need our Protestant and Jewish friends on our side and at our side," he maintained. "There never will be an aroused public conscience, or a sustained public outcry against filthy movies or damaging books and magazines, until they them"
are with us and we with .
. Birth Control The C h u r c h 's unaiterable
stand against· artificial birth control, 'Father Davis· pointed
'out; also is taken by ·many Protestants ,as "Roman Catholie legislation' formulated by Roman Catholic popes and' priests for Roman Catholic laymen."
"The argument that birth con-, trol is against the natural 'law cuts very little· ice with them," he'said. "and the average Pro.,. testant knows v~y little of the theological arguments against the pra<;tice."
To explain to Protestants the basis of the Church's position against birth control is "a most neces~ary form of the intellectual apostolate," he declared.
Memorial Scholarship fo be Awarded In Memory of Father Lenaghan
A memorial scholarship which was presented to his mother at will be begun this year with a special exercises May 14, 1944, $300 award !tas been established at Sacred Heart Church.. A native for a B. M. C. Durfee High of Salem, Father Lenaghan 'was School graduate by the Class of graduated from B. M. C. Durfee 1923. The class, of which Mr. John V. Donnelly is President, will hold its thirty-ninth reunion Saturday, May 24th, at the Fall River Country Club. The scholarshlp will serve as a memorial for all the deceased members of the class, and will be named for a distinguished hero ciergyman, Father Arthur C. Lenaghan..
Memorial gifts to the perma": nent fund. are invited, and 81ready substantial gifts in memory of deceased members' have been given 'by the· family' "of Rev. Arthur C. Lenaghan;. District Court Clerk George F. Dris-' colI in memory of his wife Helen O'Brien Drillcoll; Attorney Pearl Horvitz Mekelburg in' memory of her sister Sarah Horvitz; and the brothers of Nathan Feldman in his memory.
Father Lenaghan served as Captain in the Army Chaplain Corps, and was the first priest from this diocese to lose his life on the battlefield, in the Second World War. He was the son of Mrs. Helen M. Lenaghan, 476 Langley Street and the late Charles J. Lel\aghan. He was awarded the Legion of Merit posthumously. The decoration

He. served as assistant. at Holy ,NameChuch and St. Lawrence's· Cllurch in ,New ,Bedford, .St. Mary's Church, Nantucket, and Sacred Hear,t Church, Ta~nto~.
Father tenaghan entered the .Chaplain Corps in April, 1942. He served at Fort Monmouth and
,For-t. Dix, N. J., prior .to going .overseas..Befor.e going to Italy, he took.partin the. North Afri can and Tunisian. Campaigns. There is no question that Father Lenaghan ,died a hero:s death. His· eulogist said "the. circum:stances of his death, the nature and,locatiQnof his wound, make it highly probable he was kneeling over the p'rostrate form of a fallen s?ldier, administering the last rItes of Hol~ Mot~er Church, when death claimed hIm. For that reason, and ~hat reason
. alone, he placed himself within the range of enemy fire. -Learning that help was needed to carry the dead and dying back to the receiving station, he went forward. He· was ordained for the dying. Vested with the stole of forgiveness, carrying the consecrated oils for the afflicted, he had volunteered to serve his God and coiuitry."
A hard-working Scholarship Committee under the Chairmanship of Probate Judge Beatrice H. Mullaney, secr.etary of the Class of 1923, have themselves contributed the sum of $300, the amount of the first scholarship. All funds collected' from the members of the class, from the families of deceased members, and from the friends of Father Lenaghan, will be added to the Perm:lnent Fund. Frank L. Hibbert of the B. M. C. Durfee Trust Company, also a member of the Class of 1923, is serving as Treasurer of the Fund, and Qonations may be made directly to, him..
The Committee will hold a final meeting tonight.

The Family Clinic
INight Out With -~the- ;Joys' Presents Comple~ .Problem
, Dr Rev. John -L. Thomas. S.J. Assistant Professor of Sociology
St., Louis University
My wife raises a great fuss every time I want a night out with th'e boys. She says she just can't see wh;tt I get out of playing cards in a smoky' room and drinking' beer ' for hours, while she sits horne with the kids. WomeJr"'enjoy their parties,' too, though they generally have them in the afternoon when we're not at home anyway. Am I being thoughtless and selfish in wanting to get out'. once' in a
w h i I e? She thinks so,
According to :~ the comic strips, }Ted, this mari
:, :.,; t a I argument :::m:m has been going {,~} on for a long
time and isn't likely. to stop.' Perhaps it is more acute now that the husband's job separates the ma..
<> jority of. couples all during the - day, so that they spend such
little time toge'ther. . We might guess that a less highly industrialized society, which permits husbands and wives to be closer together during the working day, would also find. them more willing to seek separate entertainment at night. That's probllbly why parish societies in the past were organized according t"o sex, 'Jwhereas today only the c'ouple-centered movements te!1d to be accepted.
Arguing Is Useless At any rate, Ted, you have a
problem, and' it's eVide~tly not being. solved to anybody's satisfaction. You don't want to be unfair,' yet you think your wife is being a 'little narrow and inconsiderate. She would probably say·the ~me about you, so arguing aboJt it doesn't help matters very much.
What's the solution, if any? . It 'will ,help clarify matters if you
'. both start out by 'recognizing that. there are, no absolute principles or, norms :which clearly specify what is right and wrong in such situattoris . Social customs, conditions, a'hd individual couples differ. so .greatly that satisfactory solutions' vary' widely. In 'a sense; your. problem is unique.' It can be worked out.
'only 'in term's of your total marriage situation. .
This doesn't inean that a good solutjon will be wholly' arbitrary. There are guiding norms and ,pertinent .. considerations which: should shape your thinking 'if you sincerely want to. reach arl agreement 'that will strengthen your marriage. Let's ;0 "'over the prinCipal ones briefly..
• 'Cold War' Marri~e First, marriage does imply
companionship and partnership . as a couple. This involves not 'only c09peration in' childbearing and child rearing but intimate, .
, affec!i«?nate ,unity, for only. if • husband and wife are thus
closely united can they maintain the Joving, emotionally sccure family climate which children need for normal development.
Second, because of personality differences and previous train'" ing, men and women in marriage, fr'equently discover that they do not share each other's likes or dislikes. This may have little to . do w'ith their love or unity, but since they now' form a couple; it limits the things they can share and may lead to misunderstanding. Some people regard all dif-' ferences as marks of inferiority. If you don't like what they like, you must have poor taste! .
Third, particularly during the early child-rearing. stages, the wife's social life may be seri ously r.estricted. After spending the day with immature children, she craves adult companionship. Husbands easily tend to forget this.
Fourth, all marriages require a degree of give and take. This defies close calculation. The important point is to pres~rve the ~p,irit of mutual service and support. •Once bickering a'nd -bar
gaining start, marriage becomes a type of "cold war."
Long Range View How should you solve your
problem, T~d? Fir-st, make a check of the number of times you take .your wife out at night. If you can't afford it or simply 'neglect it, are you surprised-she resents your night with the boys'?
Second, how often do you want to go out alone? Surely more than once a week would indicate a peculiar attitude toward your wife and family.
Indeed, this' would be too often .if you didn't 'take her out an equal number of times. You say, "this would be too expensive," or "she doesn't want to leave the children that often?" Then you had best' reconsider your ow.n reuest....... '
Third, if your wife's only objection to your night out is that she doesn't approve of what you do, I think she's probably making a mistake. She should recall the old Roman saying, "One can't y,?ur own ·request. _
Finally,. in solving your problem, take a long range view' of your marriage. It is for' life. What YO\l do now will shape its future course for ,better or worse. Remember, in love 'as in war, you may win a battle but lose the campaign.

Asserts 'Hucle~r Warfare Lawful Only to Defend
LONDON (NC) - Highly powerful nuclear weapons could be used against legitimate targets in a purely defensive war, Archbishop William Godfrey of Westminster has declared.
Speaking in answer to criti cism that the Church does not speak out clearly on the problem of the use of nuclear weapons during a war, the Archbishop said:
"There are those who have said that the G:hurch remains silent on a matter which is of deep concern for the welfare of the entire human family. We may answ~r that there are admittedly certain questions of fact which pass beyond the competence of the theologian and are matters for the scientist."
Outlines Position Archbishop Godfrey said that
he does not believe it hal; beeh demonstrated that there can be no conceivable circumstances "in which there might be a legiti mate target for even the most powerful nuclear weapon. If this be so, a nation would then be
. justified in. testing such weapons; unless it be proved that the evil resulting from the te'sts out:" weighs the usefulness of the testing."
The Archbishop summarized his position on the war as fol":, lows:
I), War is not intrinsically wrong. A war, even a major war, can be justified provided it be a defensive war in which the basic valles of human life are at stake. It cannot be waged, however, until every possible step has been fried to arrange a peaceful settlement. Moreover, there must be a reasonable chance of its achieving its just end without giving rise to still greater evils.
2) Granted that a war of selfdefense can be just, the state is in duty bound to do all possible to defend its essential life adequately. . •
Papal Address "Nobody can subscribe to the
morally lawful to use indiscrimthesis that it would ever be inate nuclear weapons on centers' of population which are' predominantly civilian. 'Moreover, one cannot, in theory, exclude the POSllibility 'of ,:1 war with' cOil trolled nuclear weaponsre':' stricted to military targets~' , 'IHowever, this may be',' 'we

If this can be accom· plished with God's grace and aid, these weapons which are so abominated by all of us may be banished from use."

Deficiencies in ~igher Ed~cation . '. .,
Quality of P'rofessors .Key: T0 ~cholarshipStandard
. By Donald McDonald Davenport Catholic Messenger
A recent editorial in Am'eric'a, the Jesuit weekly~ sug- . A'ests that perhaps it is now Fime to, stop the self-analysis and self-criticism that has broken out among Catholic eollege educators in the past few yearll, and begin, instead, to do something about correcting whatever deficiencies exist in Catholic higher education.
The three most elaborate and widely-discullsed examples of this self ~ criti eism were papers given by' M s g r. J 0 h n Tracy Ellis of the Catholic University' 0 f America; Father Gustave Wiegel,S.J., of Woods t 0 c k College, . Maryland; and Fat her John C a van aug h,
--C.S.C., head of
the Notre Dame foundation ,and,former president of Notre ,Dame.
Monsignor Ellis and Father Cavanaugh, following the adage,
,0000y their' fruits 'you shall know them," questiQPed the intellectual vitality of' some of, our.
Mo:signOr Ellis gave his paper on Catholic intellectual life in' this' country, time enough for some judgments to be formed and remedial action plannea.
The paper on which I' work printed the full texts of the three major criticisms of our schools and we received requests' for more than. 1,500 extra copies of the Ellis paper, many of the
. requests coming from deans and, heads of departments in our largest Catholic universities for
. use .in their inter-departmental . meetings (Father Gannon was
not quite accurate in estimating the caliber 'of' the audience for Monsignor Ellis)..
So, we may assume that some serious and weIghty deliberation
has been 'occurring on Catholic campuses. around ·the country..

Father Halton suggested that the Catholic Committee on CuI..; tural and Intellectual Affairs, 'at whose meetings the Ellis and Weigel papers were originally given, was a group of Catholics whose only claim to intellectual distinction was the fact that they had' given themselves the name' 01. "Catholic intellectuals." ".'

But the fact that both of these attacks were made and were welcomed in some, Catholic circles where intelle'ctuals and intellectual life have been tra-' ditionally the object of contempt, indicates. to me that obviously all American Catholics. are not yet convinced that prob. lems do' exist in Catholic higher. education, or even that""':assuming the're are problems-there is' ~any compeJJin~ .rec:llon "',vhv -'\;~ "" should be c9ncernea about them..~

Freedom to Know Is Most Essenti~1 ·MUNICH (NC)- A leading
German Catholic educator has appealed to all teachers to work together to' preserve freedom· of knowledge.
"Freedom is essential to 'humanity/,'Dr. Paul 'Fleig, president of the German Catholic Education Association said at the opening of the a'nnual association meeting. "All teachers, regardless of their religious affili ations, .should work together in the realization that the freedom to know, to search for and discover truth, is the crown of all freedoms," he added.
Dr. Fleig said that those who would deny parents the Iright to educate their children according to their religious convictions are abridging freedom. Education for truth involves the right to know the foundation of all truth, which is ,God, he said.
"U religion is ignored, trutQ cannot be known in its entirety," he concluded.

Nathan, Mencken, Education
Religious Illiteracy Results In Preposterous tragedy
By Joseph A. Rreig Cleveland Universe Bulletin
Despite the exceptional qualities of his mind, and his university education in America and Europe, George Jean Nathan lived most of his long life knowing less than nothing about the religion that formed our civilization-whether in
. .
its roots in Israel or its fulfillment in Christianity.
Only in his last years did this internationally respected ' drama critic and' author discover what the Catholic C h u r c h be- "":",tY~~. lie v e san d '>,., teaches- ~" whereupon het ;j
became a Cath- ..)..... 1 olic and soon x· I after was fol. f '.
lowed into the Church by his wile, the distinguished actress, Julie Haydon.
Nathan's partner in the rollicking and debunking days of the old American Mercury magazine was that lovable bad boy of American letters, Henry L. Menckcn. Where Nathan's intelligence was complex, fastidious and in a real sense shy, Mencken's was essentially simple, rQbust and direct. Mencken .went at things hammer - and - tongs.
Religion Class Plan Causes Ohio Debate
SPRINGFIELD (NC)-A spirited debate on religion in public schools-with Catholics keeping a discreet silence -has broken out here in Ohio.
The discussion was touched off with an announcement that the third and fourth grade elementary school pupils in the North-. western School District will be offered a "non-sectarian standard religious education program" next year.
The program, in cooperation with school officials, will be sponsored by Protestant churches and by church-related organizations and individuals.
Paper Objecis Classes will be held on school
premises on a voluntary basis during school hours. Chjldren who attend must have the writ ten consent ol their parents..
The Springfield Sun, a daily newspaper, has ·editorially objected to the proposal as "discriminatory, divisive, and 'undemocratic" and an "open violation of the law.~ According to the editorial, Catholics "have grounds lor obj~cting" to .the program. .
A released time program has' been in effect in Springfield public schools for scveral years. At first classes werc held ofI school premises, but the trend recently has been toward holding them on school propcrty.
A Little Confused The U. S. Supreme Court 10
years ago in the McCollum case i ruled' that released lime classes
for religious instruction of pub- ' lic School students may not be conducted on public school property. In a subsequent ruling in the Zorach case, the Supreme Court uphcld the validity of the released time system and the conduct of such ctasses off. of public school premises.
In letters to local newspapers, Protestant ministers have taken opposing views on the question. One Protestant layman, in the apparent conviction that public schools are Protestant institutions, wrote:
"The Ca tholics have religious training every day in their lIChools. Why can't we have it once a week?, Perhaps we Protestants are so ashamed of our religion that we don't want it spread around outside our homes, in public."

And yet Mencken, too, livedand died-ignorant of theology.
Less Than NothillK Cannot educators somehow be
persuaded to face up to, and to do something about, the religious illiteracy which results in such sad and preposterous tragedies? Tragedy it is when schools which owe their very existence to our religious inheritance turn out graduates who, although otherwise erudite and mature, go through the years thinking, talking and writing juvenile nonsense about religion.
Literally, Nathan until the last year or two of his life, and Mencken until death, knew less' than nothing about religion. Not nothing-less than nothing, because what they thought they knew was ludicrously erroneous. They talked luminous good sense about many other things, but when' they talked about religion, they talked through their hats; they made spectacles of them.elves.
Fundamentally SouDd Mencken almost unquestion
ably would have been irJ:esist ibly attracted by the Calholic faith had he known what it is especially in its wonderful development of doctrine pointing the way to a social, political and economic order fit for human dignity. Mencken, detesting injustice and sham, instinctively sensed the elements of much of. what Christianity explicitly teaches with scholarly precision.
But Mencken apparently never discovered that the Bible-belt emotionalism and the cold puritanism which roused his fury were not Christian theology. He never realized that theology rejects such excesses as distortions.
Mencken, however, was fundamentally sound. Although he hated what he blindly felt to'be religiously ridiculous, he did not make the mistake of erecting an error into a way of life. At heart, Mencken was always a roistering, argumentative boy, with a . boy's simplicity and innocence.
Nathan a Hedonist Nathan, in contrast, embraced
a dangerous philosopby. Until he discovered Christian truth, he was a hedonist; that. is, he saw pleasure as the highest good, and the pursuit of it as the proper business .of human beings. Contemptuously, he dismi'ssed those who believe in the hereafter as "aboriginals."
Because he knew less than nothing about theology, Nathan
. attributed to believers beliefs which they do not hold. He never really attacked Chri'stianity. He could not do that, because he did n'ot know what Christianity is. What he rejected and ~idiculed wa~ a caricature of the Christian faith.
He spurned "the aWlbrosia of the gods, the Jovely angels, eternal blue skies and peace, the music of golden harps." He preferred to trust in "pretty girls, Mediterranean coast !Ind symphony orchestras."
Blames Education Nathan did not know that
ambrosia, golden harps, eternal blue skies, and even lovely angels as he understood them, constitute an inlantile misrepresentation of theology. He did not understand that true religion teaches that pretty girls and symphony orchestras are gifts of God, but must not be put in place of God.
What Mencken seems to have realized instinctively - that pleasure may be enjo~'ed but must not be idolized - Nathan came to see only in the last years of his life.
Surely education can do better than to leave the minds of otherwise brilliant graduates sunk in grossest religious ignorance, thus giving spurious substance to communist taunts about religion being superstition

';If one could be a straightforward martyr it would bea simple matter," said Bishop Turner, "but the brainwashing techniques of the Communists permit nothing so u(lcomplicated."
.Jail Legionnaires Asked about the activities of
the Legion of Mary, he said that it· was one of the first groups labeled subversive by the Communists. Legion, memberstJ.ip was almost a sure ticket to pri-. son; in fact,'some known Legionnaires simplified lJlatters by keeping their bedrolls packed' and ready lor departure.·
When the expected knock of the policema-n came to the door', the. victim merely said, 'Tm ready, I'll go now." As a result, the most zealo,us Legionnaires are in prison, and very little can be done by' them to keep the faith alive in their fel-, low coun·trymen. .

a member of the Scat'boro Foreign Mission Society of Can'ada. After his exile from China he spoke on his experiences throughout Canada, and was then assigned to work in the Bahama Islands.

SEATTLE, '(NC)-The curreht Hollywood t.rend is to make a hero out of the rebellious noconformist at t.he expense of the good and happy man, William H. Mooring, Holl)'wood columnist for The Anchor, said here.
Mr. Mooring explained that from ·the movie maker's point of view "it is so difficult to be attractive when you're good and happy-but when you become wild and foam at the mouth, then you become a likely Hollywood character."
The fad in today's films, he declared in a lecture at Seattlf University, is to glorify nonconformity lor nonconformitY'f sake.
