Dearly beloved in Christ,
Once again, our Catholic Charities Appeal has attained arecord-breaking total. 1 am profoundly grateful to everyone whocontributed to this Appeal, which is so vitally necessary for themaintenance and expansion of our many varied programs of .charity,social service, education and care of the sick, the elderly and theunderprivileged.
1 wish to express a word of particular thanks to MonsignorGomes, the Coordinator of the Appeal, to Mr. Kennedy, the LayChairman, to the priests in our Diocesan parishes, without whoseenthusiastic cooperation and leadership no such success could berealized, to the army of solicitors who canvassed neighborhoodsall throughout the Diocese, and to the countless friends of CatholicCharities.
It is clearly apparent to me that a Bishop can only accomplishtangible good if he has the support and cooperation of the clergy,religious and faithful laity who constitute the People of God.Thanks to the generosity of the good residents of our Diocese inresponding to the 1975 Catholic Charities Appeal with an unprecedented total, much can be accomplished in the months ahead.
With sincere gratitude, and with the assurance of my prayerful good wishes for every blessing, 1 have the pleasure to remain
Devotedly yours in Christ,

in health care costs in terms ofincreases in labor costs and innon - labor expenditures forequipment and suwies, of increases in ,the average lengthof patient stay, and of costly advances in complex diagnosticand therapeutic procedures. .
Contending that rate approvalcannot affect primary causes ofinflation or even relieve thesymptoms effectively, Fetterhoffsaid: "When government goes asfar into internal management ofhealth care facilities as rate approval requires, the result is notthe thrift and efficiency intended. One need not be a harshcritic of American governmentto note that thrift and efficiencyare not among its chief virtues."
·Fetterhoff said the PCC supported the proposed section oncertificate of need, which provides for governmental controlover the development or expansion of health care facilities toprevent duplication of serviceswithin any geographic area.
He urged, however, that "religious need" in the communitybe made one of the criteria tobe considered when certificate ofneed decisions are being made."Otherwise," he said, "the thou·sands of patients who' seek spiritual as well as physical care incrises of health will be deprivedof it, and church-related facilities will find their mission to thesick and their freedom to delivercare severely limited if not excluded in a health planning system conscious only of materialfactors."
The PCC also opposed the appointment of a health care advocate. "Duties of a proposedhealth care advocate," Fetterhoffsaid, "could create an adversaryrelationship between governmentand -the health care industry, possibly damaging the health careclimate."
The PCC supported the legislation's provision for a health carepolicy board, provided there isequal representation of both consumers and providers of healthcare on the board.

Religious HeritageMIAMI (NC)-The bicenten
nial cornmilttee of the SouthernChristian Association is gather-ing support among religious'groups for a proposal ,to teachthe influence of religion in U. S.history, in the public schools ofDade County here in Florida.
HARRISBURG (NC) - ThePennsylvania Catholic Conference (PCC) has opposed the inclusion in health care legislationof a provision for state regulation of rates paid for hospitalservices.
In testimony before the Healthand Welfare Committee of thestate House .of Representatives,Howard J. Fetterhoff, PCC executive director, called the rateapproval section of the legislation "counter-productive and potentially harmful" to the healthcare industry in the state.
"One of the principal reasonsapproval is so ineffective in unsolving the real problems ofhealth care consumers is that ittreats symptoms rather than major causes of rising costs of carein hospitals and nursing homes,"Fetterhoff testified.

ResponsibilityNext weekend attention of the people throughout the
Diocese is being focused on the whole matter of vocations.Most people are undoubtedly called by God to live out
their adult lives in the vocation of marriage, to serve Godby being good husbands and wives, good mothers andfathers. This is their calling and upon this they are to bejudged.
There are others who will remain single throughouttheir lives and these will give their talents and energies toserving God and neighbor in the single state.
God does not neglect His Church, and there are thosecalled by God to serve Bim as priests and brothers andsisters.
The work of man I is to uncover these vocations, torecognize the signs, to foster and encourage them.
No one wishes to pressure anyone into being a servantof God if he or she is not suited for this life and called tothis vocation. But it would be reprehensible if a young person or an older one showed signs of a vocation to the priesthood, or religious life and these signs went unrecognized orwere neglected by those whose duty it is to seek out andencourage vocations. And this is the duty of every matureCatholic, especially those who are confirmed.
Confirmation associates one with the Bishop in hisvocation of winning the world for Christ. The Bishop worksthrough all those who assist him in his calling. He worksthrough priests and brothers and sisters and all the lay menand women who at confirmation became witnesses to Christand preachers of the things of God by word and example.
The responsibility of detecting signs of a vocation, ofencouraging realistically those who show such signs, ofpraying for vocations-this responsibility is one widelyshared. No one having a share in this responsibility shouldneglect it.

Not a Word but an ActionThe watchword of today seems to be "involvement."
Happily in some instances, it is not only a slogan but anaction.
This is the case with the recently-completed CatholicCharities Appeal, the most successful of all.
Men and women from all over the Diocese and theirfriends of other religions joined in contributing to the Appealbecause they believe in involvement and wished to sharein it.
Not too many persons have the time or the skills orthe inclination to teach exceptional children, to care forthe sick in the Rose Hawthorne Lathrop Home, to counselunwed mothers, to give lectures to the engaged, to arrangefor adoptions, to minister to the aged and the chronic sick.
But these same persons know that this is the work ofinvolvement, this is the work of the person dedicated toall that is finest in the Judeo-Christian tradition, this isGod's own .work. And it must be done.
So those who gave to the Charities Appeal' have involved themselves in God's work by supporting the manyagencies that care for God's poor and exception'al andworried, that reach out to those who need care and counseland understanding.
These contributors have taken from their substanceto aid those who are giving their lives in these works ofkindness and charity.
These contributors have not only talked involvementthey have practiced it.
To them it is not just a word-it is an action.

FALMOUTH CONFIRMATION: Bishop Cronin during recessional following the administration of Confirmation in St. Patrick's Church, Falmouth. The Ordinary of theDiocese was principal concelebrant and homilist and was assisted by concelebrants headedby Rev. Msgr. James E. Gleason, pastor of the Falmouth Parish.
He rebuked them for fallingasleep. How many of the Apostles' successors are asleep now?How many of them are unawareof the new Pentecost which isalready upon us.
Unachieved Love
As >though frustrated in Hisearlier attempts, the Spirit stirsrestlessly today. The Church hasnot achieved the love Christasked.
Jesus upbraided t,he Apostlesfor not believing a woman Hesent to tell them He had risen.Is the Church's failure to reachChrist's goals related to the successors of the Apostles' refusalto believe and to trust women?
The restlessness in religiouslife, the questioning by the laity,women seeking the recognitiongiven them by Christ, is it theSpirit, gathering like a stormabout to break?
I believe it is ... and beforeHe is finished, many cherishedprivileges claimed by the successors of the Apostles will beswept aside and a truly Christian community will emerge inwhich men and women shareequally and lovingly in all theministries.
Then the priesthood will notimitate the weaknesses of theApostles, but the ,love of Jesusand Mary, the strength of theSpirit.
Next week I'll conclude thisseries of columns oh theChurch's discrimination againstwomen by describing how Ithink it will happen.
Warns TeachersAgainst Marxism
GUATEMALA CITY (NC)Religious education must includeall basic truths and keep clearfrom Marxist views, CardinalMario Casariega of GuatemalaCity told principals of the 90Catholic schools in his archdiocese.
The cardinal said he was reacting to textbooks on sociology,philosophy and history whic.hwere unclear on Catholic doctrine.
"Unfortunately, religious programs, catechism books andother materials used by. Catholicschools in other countries havebeen found to contain grave errors or omissions, II CardinalCasariego said. "Such materialscannot be used in this archdiocese."
He made explicit mention ofMarxist views, say.ing- they couldnot "explain Guatemalan truthsto the general intellectual levelof the untrained, "or give to religious instruction a mere socio-logical twist." .
"It is true that the Catholicfaith has a social dimension,but first the educator must stressthe supernatural dimension asentrusted by Christ to His
. Church," he said.
Is Holy Spirit GatheringLike A Breaking Storm?
Jesus, as I said in last week's column, treated womenin sharp contrast with the customs of His times. He was.friendly toward them. He treated them with respect. TheHoly Spirit did not discriminate against women either. AtPentecost there is no indicalion that He came exclusively to the Apostles. TheActs say that "the womenand Mary" were there. and thetongues of fire "settled uponeach of them."
But somehow, the Holy Spirit's

and Christ's regard for womenwas lost, and th(: Church's teaching reverted to ancient customsdiscriminating against women.St. Paul mak~s his positionclear: "Let a woman learn insilence wJth all submission. ForI do not allow a woman to teach,or to exercise authority overmen; but she is to keep quiet. II
.(St. Paul also advised bishopsto limit themselv,es to one wife.)
Anti-women attitudes continued through Church teaching.St. Augustine was convincedthat if it wasn't for the necessityof propagating the race, a manwouM be much better off with amale compan!on rather than afemale.
St. Thomas Aquinas believedthat a woman was a fective man,caused by a defective seed, or by'a damp south wind blowing atthe time of conception.
Wouldn't Be Needed
Until the last few .centuries,it was believed that the maleseed alone produced the child;the woman was merely an incubator. All these beliefs influenced the Church in forming itsteachings on contraception andabortion.
T·hough we now have a betterknowledge of biology, theChurch's treatment of womenstill reflects the ancient superstitions.
Jesus never mentioned contraception or abortion (though theyexisted in His time). If Histeaching on love were trulylived, no teaching on contraception or abortion would be .necessary.
However, it's not Jesus' teachthat is cited as the reasonwomen cannot be fully accepted,but the example of the Apostlesbeing all men. Who decideswhich examples of the Apostlesare to be fol,lowed?
Jesus rebuked them for theirarguments as to who was thegreatest; we've had ecClesiasticalpower struggles in the Churchever since. Jesus reprimandedthem when they proudly stoppeda man, who was not one of them,from casting out a devil in Hisname; the Church rejects ministers from all but the favored lineof succession.

One of the highlights of thelatter, in my opinion, is theparade or procession. The children in their costumes (many,have been very carefully dressedby their mothers or "vovos" torepresent a favor-ite saint), theplaintive strains of the bandand the festive crowds remindus that America is a melting potfor the best of many cultures.
Joe loves these feasts becausethey are so unpretentious in aworld that is getting more jadedand sophisticated by the minute.He feels they are a simple statement of religious worship andbelief needed in a world that isturned off by so many things.
In Fall River there are at leastseven festas, starting in lateMay and continuing into lateAugust. They are usually heldon a weekend with the procession in the early afternoon orearly evening of Sunday. If youhave never seen one, it's wellworth the effort to view anotherone of the customs that make,this area unique.

Beauty of MaryPath Open to All
ROME (NC) - Pope Paul VItold participants in two international meetings on the BlessedVirgin that Marian devotion canbe reawakened in the Churchthrough contemplation of Mary'sbeauty as well as through scholarly Mariological study.
Pope Paul drove from the Vatican to the Antoniaum Hall nearthe Basilica of St. John Lateranwhere the International MarianCongress and International Mariological Congress are being held.
He told partidpants: "Weshould like to respond to a question of great pastoral and alsodoctrinal relevance: how to represent Mary in an adequateway to the people of God as toreawaken in them the fervor ofrenewed Marian piety?"
He answered that two pathscan be followed. "The path oftruth, first of all-that is biblical" historical and theologicalspeculation - which concernsMary's exact place .in theChurch."
He called that the "path of thelearned" which is "certainly necesary." He added: "There is also,besides this one, a path accessible to all, including the leasteducated.

The USCC Office of GeneralCounsel is analyzing the decision in detail, Bisho~ Rauschsaid. "In the meantime," he said,",it is important to bear in mindthat the court's action does notinvalidate .many forms of government assistance to nonopublic
.school students which have previously been upheld by thecourts."
The court said that textbookswere permissible because text·books used in public schoolswere loaned directly to studentsand did not further religious objectives. But the auxiliary services, material 'and equipmentsupplied directly to the nonpublic schools constituted "an impermissible establishment of religion," the court said.
The court also said the size ofAcademic Status

Says SacramentsTo Be Unity Base
ROME (NC)-The seven sacraments, now considered aroadblock to Christian unity bysome persons, wiH form thebasis for true Christian unity,a leader in the charismatic movement said here May 17.
Franciscan Father MichaelScanlon, well known amongCatholic charismatics for hiswritings on the Sacraments, tolda session of the InternationalConference on Charismatic Renewal in the Church: "The sacraments, which today pose anecumenical problem, will tomorrow be a source of, unity forChristians."
The priest said he based thatassumption on research he hasdone among non-Catholic charismatic prayer groups. He saidthat "aU seven solemn moments"that the Church calls sacramentsare beginning to be celebratedin these groups - even whencomposed of Protestants whosedenomination recognies only oneor two sacraments or even nosacraments at all.

Father DrinanAsks StQte AidFor Schools
WASHINGTON (NC)-Churchrelated institutions giving instruction in secular subjectsshould not be deprived of reimbursement that is or should be,available to them under the law,according to Jesuit Father Rob·ert F. Drinan, Democratic congressman from Massachusetts.
He was interviewed in theMay issue of Momentum, thequarterly magazine of the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA).
In the interview, Father Drinan,noting the series of U.S. Supreme Court decisions ruling outgovernment aid to church·relatedschools, said that the people whoattend these schools, their par·ents, the educators, should stressthe second part of the FirstAmendment to the Constitution-in the free exercise of religion- rather than argue the firstpart-the establishment of reli·gion dause.
"Those who are devoted toCatholic education should continue to develop the concept thatgoing to a Catholic school ispart of the free exercise of religion," he said. ''That free exercise is guaranteed by the secondarticle of the First Amendment."
ACLU MemberPointing- out that courts have
not banned state or federal fundsfor church-related colleges, Father Deinan said: "It seemsanomalous to me that a personwho is 17 can go to the collegeof his choice, even a churchrelated school, and receive thisaid-yet if he a,ttended a Catholic high school the year before,neither he nor the institutionwould get anything by way ofreimbur~ement for his trainingin the secular sciences."
Defending his membership inthe national advisory council ofthe American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which has consistently opposed federal and stateaid to church-related schools,Father Drinan said he does notagree with all the views of theACLU but believes that "thebetter way to participate insuch a group is by arguing rationally from within, rather thanby throwing stones from theoutside."
Indian DeaconsRAPID CITY (NC) - What is
believed to be the first ordination -ceremony advancing nativeAmericans to the office of permanent deacon will take placehere SaturdaY,accor'ding to aRapid City diocesan spokesman.In a liturgical ceremony combining the ritual of ordination andIndian traditions, Steven RedElk and Reno Richards of thePine Ridge reservation, and L.Max Plank of the Rosebud reservation will be ordained asdeacons.
Dr. Mayer told the group thatpopulation is a major factor inthe world food cr.isis.
He recited some statistics toshow the size of the problem. Ittook 40 million years, up to theyear 1850, for the population ofthe world to reach one billionpeople, he said. Then it took 70years, until 1920, for the population to reach two billion people.The third billion came in 35years and the pr.ediction nowis that ,by the year 2000 therewill be eight billion people onearth.
Another factor in the problp.m,he said. is tha,t as countries become richer their appetite formeat increases. Large amountsof grain are used for the production of much smaller amountsof meat and milk and eggs.
"The rich nations have blamedthe food problem on the poornations because that is where90 per cent of thoe people are,"he said. "And the poor nationsblame the food problem on therich nations because grains areused not to feed people but tofeed cattle. In order to solvethe food problem it is necessaryto do something about the population problem and about theproblem of ,the conversion ofgrain to meat."
Dr. Mayer urged a return toclassical farming rather thancontinued use of the methods ofthe Green Revolution.
"The Green Revolution wasnot a simple phenomenon," hesaid...It meant the input of extramaterials like fertilizer in orderto make it work. Most of theworld's farmers u~til the GreenRevolution were substitute farmers. The Green Revolution meant,that the rich would get richer
. and the poor became landless:'nr. Mayer said that at the vil
lage level something "mllst becreated ,to take the place of thelandlord."
"Ideology is unimportant," hesaid. "In Red China they havecommunes and in Scandinaviathey have coops. It is unimportant which you have. What isimportant is that you have organization. Unless food production is organized the presentproblems ril not,be 9OIved.~
ST. LOUIS (NC) - The rootproblems in the world food crisis are lack of organization andlack of world leadership, Dr.Jean Mayer, professor of nutrition at Harvard University, toldan overflow crowd at a Community Conference on Food andPopulation here.
"The argument that at presentthere is not enough food to feedeveryone is nonsense," he said."The amount of additional foodneeded is not that large. Whatwe are trying to deal with atpresent is the immense lack oforganization of world food production."
Dr. Mayer rejected predictionsthat "there will be 400 millionpeople starving by spring," butsaid the number of faminestricken people will be high.
The meeting was sponsored bythe UN Association of the USA,St: Louis Chapter.
Jesuits NamedFor Top Posts
ROME (NC) - Father PedroArrupe, superior general of theSociety of Jesus, has namedFather Francis Nern, a Spanishborn priest, to act as a conl>u1toron the Jesuits' top council.
He has also named FatherEduardo Briceno of Colombia tothe position of regional assistantfor Northern Latin America.
Father Ivern, who has servedin India since 1962, is the firstof. the "at least two" councilmembers whom the Jel>uit general congregation empoweredFather Arrupe to name. Thegeneral congregation met herefor more than three months recently.

"I made a promise to God thai1 would get into something likethis," he said, explaining thatthe position at the college willenable him to pursue a more active religious life. He attendedSpring HiII for a year beforetransferring to the U. S. NavalAcademy.
Adm. Denton said his reasonsfor leaving the Navy are deeperthan his disappointment overAmerican policy in Vietnam, although he added that he "wasn'thappy" with recent events inSouth Vietnam.
He told a news conference atthe Armed Services Staff College, where he .is commandant,that· he wiII become an assistantto the president of Spring Hill.A college spokeswoman saidDenton has been appointed tothe president's institutional development staff and will assumehis position on Aug. 1.
Denton, who spent seven-andone-half years as a prisoner ofNorth Vietnamese, led the returnof American POW's from theVietnam war. Stepping downfrom a U. S. plane in the Philippines after his release, he gave abrief speech ending with thewords: "God Bless America."

Jesuit Says GodHasn't RejectedJewish People
SOlJ11H ORANGE (NC)--Godhas not rejected the Jewish people; His call to them is "continuous, irrevocable and indestrut;tible," a Jesuit theologian tolda symposium here. The existenceof a new covenant "does not destroy the old," he said.
The theologian, Jesuit FatherWalter Burghardt, a theology'professor at the Catholic University of America, Washington,D. C., spoke at the annual springsymposium of Seton Hall University's Institute of JudaeoChristian Studies. Father Burghardt is also editor of Theological Studies and a member of thePontifical Theological Commission.
Father Burghardt upheld thevalidity of JewiS:l belief andpractice today. "The !'tynagogueservice is a place where God ispresent to His people, whereGod t;aIls them to salvation andgrants them a life of faith," hesaid.
At thp. same (iml~, he said, although the Jewish people havenot been rejected by God, "thecovenant God made with themhas become universal."
Christian theologians, FatherBurghardt said, "have to takeseriously the history of theJewish people and their presentexistence."
"We have just begun to explore God's plan with. referenceto other religions," he said andthen asked: "If God's plan is atwork within the Jewish community, is it His will that peopledrift away from their convic·tions?"
Father Burghardt .offered 10"personal propositions" or "affirmations":
The Jewish people werechosen by God to be His people.
The Jews did not cease to beGod's people after the death ofJesus.
'Graced Life'
The Jewish people are in noway accurs~d by God.
God's covemmt has been expanded to !n::lude Gentiles.
God's promises reached an unparaIleled point in Jesus.
The Jews "cannot be calledguilty of Jesus' death," for"there is no such thing as collective guilt;" the charge is "historically and theologiea lIy untenable."
There is a lack of certaintyabout what theology should sayabout the relationship betweenJesus and the Jew of today butit cannot be denied that theJewish "corporate life is a gracedlife."
There is similar unl:ertaintyabout the role of the Church inregard to the synagogue but theterm "conversion" should beused carefully and in the sensethat it is something to which allare called.
Despite uncertainties, "theJewish people have a God-givenrole to play in human history"and that role cannot be definedin terms of its relationship toChristianity.
God is still revealing Himselfto and through the Jews, notonly in their synagogue servicebut in their lives."

SAN ANTONIO (NC) - U.S.Catholic school officials who recently visited scbools in the Soviet Union found them "morestructured and discipline moresevere than in the U.S.," saidMarianist Brother Edwin Goerdt,San Antonio archdiocesan superintendent of schools.
"We were very favorably impressed by two of the schools wevisited, both of them specialEnglish st;hools," Brother Goerdtsaid. "But we were less favorablyimprseed by other schools wesaw and, I beli\:ve, most of usprefer the more relaxed atmosphere in American schools andthe greater flexibility allowed bylocal sch<lol districts in thiscountry."
Brother Goerdt was among 21U.S. Catholic school superintendents and principals who spentseveral weeks in the Soviet Union recently to study the educational system of that country onthe elementary and secondarylevels.
Noting there has been a greatdeal of interest in the Sovietschool system ever since the Soviet Union launched the world'sfirst artificial space satellite,Sputnik, in 1957, Brother Goerdtsaid, "In the years followingthat first Sputik, there was muchbreast-beating in the UnitedStates about the poor quality ofour schools and much praise forthe Soviet system of st;hoaling.
Elitist System
"Articles and books about'*What Ivan Knows That JohnnyDoesn't Know' were common,"he added. "But what few Americans realized was that the Soviet educational system at thattime was perhaps the most elitistin the world. Stiff governmentexams were adminstered at the
end· of the fourth grade. Thosewho failed had to drop out."
Another exam was given atthe end of the seventh grade,Brother Goerdt said, 'and onlythose who passed - "about 10per cent of those who begangrade one" - were allowed tocontinue.
"This is ·no longer the case,"he said, "and education throughgrade eight is now compulsoryfor all - and, beginning nextyear, it will be compulsorythrough grade 10."·
Noting that the Soviet Unionconsists of 15 republics with 100minority groups and 66 languages, Brother Goerdt said it
-possesses "a highly centralizedschool system."
"There is no such thing as anindependent school district. Alldecisions are made in Moscow,"he said. "With the exception ofa limited number of experimentalschools, the curriculum is thesame for all. Students in theUkraine and far off Siberia usethe same textbooks as in Moscow, though they may be in adifferent language."
Brother Goerdt said that, although textbooks are in the language of the region, all childrenin the Soviet Union study theRussian language and the studyof foreign languages begins ingrade five - "except in speciallanguage .schools, where it begins in grade two."
"There are even a few experi-

mental st;hools where foreignlanguage study begins in kindergarten," he added.
Beginning in grade four, thecurriculum 'is "heavily loaded"with science and math and "thehumanities receive even less emphasis than in the U.S.," hesaid.
Noting the school term extends from Sept. 1 to June 1six days a week with hours muchthe same as in the United States,Brother Goerdt said, "There ismuch, much more homeworkgiven in the USSR than in thiscountry. Even the primary students .are given one or morebours of homework every night."
He said that extracurricularactivities are not usually conducted at the school. "Instead,they are carried on 'at the YoungPioneer Clubs and Palaces." The
'Pioneers is an organization ofthe Communist party for children in grades four througheight.
After grade eight, young people may join the Komsomol, theCommunist .party organizationfor persons between the agesof 15 and 28. "Membership inthe Komsomol is more selective," Brother Goerdt said, 'butwithout membership there is nochance for admission to the university or advancement in thegovernment or professions."
Only about one of three whoapply to the university are admitted, he said.
Brother Goerdt said it is impossible to ascertain whichschools are better "those in theSoviet Union or those in America.
"We saw schools in Leningrad,Kiev and Moscow, the threelargest cities in the Soviet Union," he said. "But it is almostimpossible to get permission tovisit schools in villages or on collective farms, probably becausethe quality is so poor."
