The "school-to-home" service makes it possible for the homebound youngster to listen in to all the classroom instruction and recitations, and to respond and participate in the greater part of the activities in the classroom he would ordinarily occupy.
The mechanics of the system are simple-an intercommunication unit engineered for use with telephone equipment is placed near the teacher's desk facing the students. This unit is wired to an amplifier and then the sound goes out over a regular private telephone line to another unit beside the shut-in youngster. He can hear every
,thing that goes on in the classroom. The flip of a switch turns his receiver into a microphone, so that he can recite in turn and take part in the classroom exer
. cises as the teacher directs. This relatively new telephone
teaching method gives a sense of belonging to the home-bound youngster. He is able to identify himself with a group, and to sustain daily social contact with his class. All the mental and physical therapy, and most of all, the spiritual therapy that instills the' will to live and fight which are so vital to eventual recovery are present in this ingenious "school - to - home" teaching.

"Jewish Scholar N'otes Growing Secular "'(r.end
NOTRE DAME (NC)The typical American has .developed a. remarkable capacity for being serious about religion without taking religion seriously," a Jewish scholar declared at a symposium here at the University of Notre Dame.
Dr. Will Herberg, sociologist and author, made the statement
. in a symposium on "Roman Catholicism and the American Way of Life." The symposium was sponsored by Notre Dame's history department.
Dr. Herberg conceded that the United States is "in the grip of a great religious boom," but ,he stated that "the very same people who are so unanimous in identi fying themselves religiously do not hesitate to acknowledge that religion is quite peripheral to their everyday lives."
Unequal Alternatives To the question of how Amer
Icans can be so religious and secularil!.tic at the same time,' he replied that "for increasing numbers of Americans religion serves a ,function largely' unrelated to the content of the faith."
He contended that religion, instead of one's ethnic or, natiort alistic background, has no~ become "the prevailing form of defining one's identity as an American in c'o ilt e m p 0 r a ry American society."
Dr. '. Herberg declared that Americans are coming to regard Catholicism, Protestantism, and Judaism "as' three alternative,' though 'not necessarily equal, expressions of a great overarching commitment~which they all share by virtue ot? being American.", He described this 'trend as
. the "Americanization" and "thoroughgoing secularization" of religion.
Religion Reviva.l He said it means "that we
have in America an' invi~ible,
fonnally unacknowledged, but, very potent ,religion-the relfgio~ oj democracy, the religion of the American .way oflife--:--<lf which the conventional religions are felt to be more or less adequate expressions."
'. Another participant in the symposium said there is, little indication that' .the' 'so~called revival of religion has had "any important effect upon' membership in the, Catholic Church."
This opinion was ,given by Father Francis X 'Curran, S.J., professor of history at, Loyola Seminary, Shrub Oak, N.Y. He attributed the increasing number of American: converts to Catholicism -'- about 1,750,0000 since
, 1940--to "the lessening 0" anti Catholic prejudice and' the greater presence and prestige of Catholicism:'. ' leading historian of Lo~rdes.

Newly Discovered Letter Sheds Light on Lourdes Apparitions
LOURDES (NC) - A recently discovered contemporary account of the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin to St. Bernadette' here will soon be published for
, the first time.. The account is contained in a
letter 'addressed by the village pastor of Lourdes, Father Peyramale, to his brother Alexandre on March 9, 1858. It shows that a traditional interpretation of the ~priest's attitude toward, Bernadette as, sceptical and harsh is unjust.
The letter was unknown except to members of the Peyra.. male family, who kept it hic;lden in their archives.' But a 'report of its existence reached Father Laurentin \ several years ago. Father Laurentin , has b~n
studying and collecting documents for a Lourdes centenary volume which is scheduled to be published this December.
The priest asked the Peyramale family for permission to read the letter and, if it proved interesting, to publish it. The family gave their consent, but the letter could not be located.
For more than a year, the let ter was missing. Then suddenly it turned up among the p"pers of the late Henri L:.>sserre. a
prudent silence, Father Peyramale' writes: "I would not care t'J have my hat know what I am thinking."

200,000 Pilgrims Pray at Fatima
FATIMA, Portugal (NC) About 200,000 pilgrims from all over the world joined in the celebra"tions commemorating the final apparition of Our Lady to the three children of Fatima in 1917.
Despite the wind and rain which lashed the shrine, the pil grims, joined by 36 U. S. soldiers who had come from Germany, maintained an outdoor all-night vigil before the Blessed Sacrament.
Twenty thousand people received Holy Communion at a Pontifical Mass offered by Gaetano Cardinal Cicognani.
In her sermon, the Cardinal· referred to the political and reli gious sit\,Jation of Portugal at the time of the apparitions:
"What a difference there is," he said, "between the present Portugal and the Portugal of those days; between this pil grimage and the abandonment and, unbelief of that age."
The pilgrimage closed the celebration which has been conducted since last May, the anniversary of the ~irst apparition of Our Lady to Lucia Abobora and Jacinta and Francisco Marto, the three shepherd children of Fatima.

Vote to Retain Emblem Cross
ST. PAUL (NC)-The Minnesota Statehood Centennial Commission has voted to retain a cross in the 1958 centennial celebration emblem, thus ending a controversy over whether the symbol "violates separation of Church and State". '
The vote of the 15-member commission was 10 to 3, with 2 abstentions. The approval up_ held a two to one vote of a commission sub-committee which, had public hearings on the question.
The controversy oyer 'inclusion of the small cross in the emblem began with protests from representatives of the American Civil Liberties Union, of the Seventh Day Adventists, Lutheran, Unitarian, Episcopal and Universalist churches, and of a Jewish synagogue.
In April, Archbishop William O. Brady of St. Paul said that opponents of keeping the cross in the emblem were waging a campaign against "imaginary bogeymen in the dark." The Archbishop is a native of Fall River.
Noting that the part played by religious missionaries in settling Minnesota territory,' Archbishop Brady said that to try to deny this fact by ignoring it would be a falsification of history.
"If today's, pressure removes the cross from the emblem that mar~s the past," he said, "tomorrow's pressure will attempt to tear it from our churches and our homes."

Offers Plan for School Tuition WINNIPEG· (NC) - A plan
which would see Manitoba Catholics owning and operating their own 'schools and the local public school board paying pupils' tui tion from public' school taxes has been suggested to a provincial government commission on education.
The plan was recommended to the Manitoba Royal Commission studying all facets of pri mary education in the province.
The conference said the present public school system, forced by legislation to be non-sectarian, is unable to satisfy the needs of Catholic children in regard to the teaching of religion and the provision of Catholic teachers.
At present, Catholics may operate their own schools, but they receive no tax relief for their services.
In addition to the p1an for Catholic-owned schools with tuition paid by public school boards, the conference suggested other solutions.

The theme of man's ruthless exploitation of women to gai.n his own ends is not new, nor IS there anything striking about Mr. Braine's way of treating it, gave for a savage intensity of sensuality in the writing. Adultery and fornication feature Joe Lampton's relations with women; Both women are given to an intolerable amount of baby-t!llk arid 'silly sentimentalizing, so Uiat' the two affairs lack anything of the literary'seriousness that such things have in, say. the works of Graham Greene. The positi~e merits ?f the book ~re simply not enough to outweIgh its serious, defects, literary as well ~s moral.
Th'eology Simplified' . The syndicated diocesan news
paper columns of Frank Sheed are gathered together in a systematic' presentation of Theology for Beginners (Sheed and Ward, $3.00). This' little book comprises a shorter and simpler consideration of the basic truths of the' faith than is given in Theology and Sanity. It should have value for the average layman' who wants to know a little more Ui~n the catechism tells him of what he believes. For the convert or 'prospective convert who wants an introduction to the faith it is more, substantial than A Map of Life, yet less "in'teHectual" than Theology and Sanity.
As in his writing, Mr. Sheed shows here h'is ability to instruct without boring and to simplify without insulting. This is a fine book for tne parish library and the Catholic information center library as well as for the layman's personal collection.

derstandably about theology for the layman, so could Anne O;Hare McCormick present international politics and worla d~plomacy in her New York columns.

. Urges Science
Of Holiness "We find ourselves on the
threshold of discovery that may make Columbus and 1492 fade into insigniti eance." In his sermon given at the Solemn Mass pf Thanksgiving Sunday observing the 75th anniversary of the founding of SS. Peter and Paul's parish in Fall River, the Most Reverend Bishop contrasted the startling discoveries of science in physics0
and dynamics and space, and the sad neglect of discoveries into man's spiritual side. "Those who have a penchant for penetrating
·the heavens have no idea of what it is to have the beginnings of heaven in one's soul."
The Bishop noted men of science likp Carl Steinmetz and Charles Lindbergh who, after lifetimes of dedication to the advancement of science, could say that men must look beyond' material forces and seek to know God.' This is the science of holi ness, the sCience of the saints, that has been preached these 75 years in SS. Peter and Paul's Church and in ever~ Catholic Church. It is a science, the Bishop said, that asks the question .of Christ, "What' does, it profit a man if he gain the-whole world and suil'er the losS of his tIOul." ,
The Bishop spoke of the former pastoI's an priests of the parish who taught this science by word and example. He spoke warmly of the parish school and the wonderful work done in it by the Sisters of ME\rcy.
The Bishop urged the parishIoners to follow the words of their patr~n Saints, St. Peter and St. Paul, to ,be "a chos~n race, ,. royal priesthood, a people God ,means to have for Himsell," and to "put on the Lord Jesus Christ."
The Anniversary Mass was celebrated by the Rev. John J. Kelly, pastor, in the presence of It full church of parIshioners and former parishioners, 30 priests, the Sisters who now teach or formerly taught in the school, Bnd some 5isters who are natives of the oarish.
On Monday there was a Solemn Requiem Mass for all deceased priests: Sisters and parishioners, and :m Tuesday a
'.Mass attended by the children of the school.
Beatification Cause I Moves Ste~ Nearer
PATERSON (NC) -A sub.tantial step has been taken in the cause of beatification of Louis and Azelie-Marie Martin, parents of St. Therese of the Child Jesus, the Little Flower.
Bishop James A. McNulty of Paterson reports Bishop Octave Pasquet of Sees, France, has ap_ pointed members of a tribunal, which will question six witnesses, one of whom is the 90year-old daughter of one of the lace-makers who worked with Madame Martin.
Bishop McNulty also disclosed that letters urging the cause were pouring into Paterson by the thousands.. The letters, addressed to Pope Pius XII will be, forwarded to the Vatican by the Paterson prelate.

"We must expect to find in the secular schools," he ~id, "wide varieties of personal opinion, great d'ivergences from our fundamental beliefs, but God confers abilities and scholarly gifts in mysterious ways, so that even from the mouths of unbelievers we freque!1tly hear the truth."

Professor Says III, Will Follows Secular. Univer~ity Attacks
NOTRE DAME (NC)-References to America's secular universities as"communistic godless, , pagan, immoral" may be made with fervent sincerity, "but they create neither respect' for the Church nor for its adherents at the secular schools," a Catholic professor at the University of Chicago said here.
Political scientist Jerome G. Kerwin, speaking at a University of Notre Dame symposium on "Roman Catholicism and the American Way of Life," attributed such charges to "an unreasoned opposition to our great centers of scholarship."
Cross Section He said "these statements are
made for the purpose of defending our own institutions - - and they need no such negative defeQse. I do not appreciate tearing down a neighbor's house in order to build one of your own!'
Mr, Kerwin, who holds an honorary degree from the University of Notre Dame, acknowledged- that "there are nonbelieving members on the faculties at the secular schools."
"But let us remember," he said, "that these universities present a cross-section view of American'life and t/:1at no matter how deplorable it may be that these scholars are godless, they are most, often competent men in their fields.

Fraternal Cooperation Mr. Kerwin contended that
Catholic attacks' on the secular universities appear to the nonCatholic scholar "as assaults on the whole field of, objective scholarship and on freedom of opinion and ,research. They affeet adversely the reputation and work of the Catholic scholars, he added. '
"Let us not forget how our . forebears 'of the 12th century flocked to the Islamic universi ties of Toledo and Cordova to absorb the learning that made the accomplishments of the 13th ce~tury ~ memorable," Mr. Kerwin pointed out.
The professor urged "a fraternal cooperation 'of our schools
Catholic world." Rather, the veteran Chicago professor said, "it remains for the Catholic scholar to convince the secular world of scholars that he is capable of o,,)jective scholarship and is not' just a propagandist."
''There may always remain a temptation, nay, even a necessity, for the Catholic scholar to place .himself in the role of defender of the Faith as long as he meets with aby'smal ignorance of things Catholic among his, nonCatholic colleagues," headded.

Crime Wave NEW YORK (NC)-"De
linquimt children are rarely born; they are made by bad example," Francis Cardinal Spellman said here in a speech calling "delinquent parents," the "root-evil" of juvenile delinquency.
Too many parents, Cardinal Spellman said', neglect their chil dren's religious training and fail to guide and govern them properly during their formative years.
"Parents who are derelict in their duties stand guilty of ,the crimes their children commit and s'hould be judged more severely than the young offenders themselves," he said.
Parents and educators, he went on, should realize that the "only effective prescription" for prevention and cure of juvenile delinqency is spiritual strength derived from religious training.
Declaring that delinquents are made, not born, Cardinal SpeiIman continued: .
"How often would a child treat another child cruelly, if he had not taken example from his elders? How would a child know another child was of different race, Color, or creed unless he learned his prejudices from hi. parents?"
He severely criticized "men or women who produce stories of murder, "lust and violence through any media to which children have access."
Swiss May Accept Papal Decorations
BERNE (NC)-Swiss citizens may accept papal decorations despite the fact that the constL tution forbids them to receive awards from foreign governments.
This was stated in a unanimous decision handed down here by a special committee of three Swiss Supreme Court iustices.
The judges ruled that such decorations are bestowed by th~
pontiff' as head of the Church, not in his capacity as sovereign of the state of Vatican City.

Christ the King' ,"Thou sayest it: lam a king." WhiI'e tJ.1e Catholic. world
was celebrating the ~ixteen-hundredth aninversary of the Council of Nicaea (325) during which the divinity, of Christ was defended, Pope Pius XI on December 11, 1925, established the new Feast of Christ the King. He designated the last Sunday of October as the day on which this' new feast should be universally observed..
World 'War I had left terrible suffering in its wake. Hatred among peoples and nations prevailed unchecked. People were suspicious of their fellow men, govern~ents
were'unstable, faith even in God had been shaken. To counteract all these:evils, Pope Pius XI instituted this'new feast with the express purpose of promoting the "Peace of Christ in the Kingdom of Christ/'
While the feast is not old, the doctrine surely is. Isaias visualized Christ as the "Prince of Peace." Gabriel said to Mary: "Thou shalt call his name Jesus ... and he shall be king over the h()use of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there shall ben() end." The, Magi came seeking "the newly born king of the Jews." To Pilate Jesus answered: "Thou sayest it: I a~'aking," and and Jesus died with the inscri~ tion over His head" "Jesus of N~zareth, King of the Jews." , And St. Johntells us, in the beautiful book of the Apocalypse, that on the judgement day the 'whole world will recognize Christ as "King of kings and Lord of lords.'! " ' ,.. "
" Pope Leo XIII has declared how wear~ the subjects of Christ the King. "All mankind is under the power Of Jesus Christ. Nor-is any distinction made between individuals, the home, or civil society, since men are no less in the power of Christ when united in society than as single individuals. He
.,alone is the source of individual and public, welfare; Neither is there'salvatipn ,in any other, for there is no other Name under heave,n given to men whereby we must be saved. He alone is the author of prosperity and true happiness both in the individual citizens and in states.", , '
Th~ rule of Christ is v spiritual. This spiritual ki~gship of Christ over individl,lals and nations is this: ,as individuals and as nations, all might recognize Christ as legitimate King over the minds and hearts and wills; all must recognize
,His infinite love for all men; His laws shouleJ not be contra, dicted by civil 'authority ; the place of spiritual values in, the, lives of men 'and nations must not be scorned or neglected: Happiness al)rl peace can, be, achieved only wh'en men and nations . measure up to the, standards of Christ. To the degree', that they faU short' of, those sta~dards,',t~ tha~ degree, is there persQnal .unhappiness a~ddistrust amongnations. ' -, '

, over the country. It is a week during which 'all our Catholic' young mtm and women review in their own lives and before the rest of us their standards, their ideals, their measuring Up to their Catholic responsibilities.

a week of union. It is a week when Catholic youth is urged to receive Holy Communion. It is a week when young men and women are asked to look deep into their own lives and see how they are living up to the Christ-like life that is theirs by ,sanctifying gr;ace. It is a week when. they are ehallenged to look at their environment an<;lask how Christian it is" how Catholic 'it is, how they are aiding or hindering the 'cause of Christ, 'What they can do to change their world-for the better. If' all our Catholic young people act this way in the week ahead, the impact of their thinking and praying and acting together should make itself felt in, every home and school and, community. '
,'Another point. This is a week in which th~ strong can

Nat-ion Mus't Halt Decline To Stay, Abreast of Reds
By Donald McDonald Davenport Catholic Messenger
Well, we have had, our fun ringing all the changes on "sputnik;" the first earth satellite launched into outer space by Soviet Russia. Television comedians have just about ex- , hausted sputnik~s topical gag 'possibilities. Public ~peak~rs,
cartoonists, editorial writers Communist propaganda, few',have managed to drag sputnik references" into their work i]l every conceivable. 'way.
And now, I susnect, it is time that', we con~ , ' sider 'the Russian accomp'lishment with the seriousness it deserves., If sputnik is a joke, the humor is grim' indeed. And I don't think the r e was anything but deadly seri ousness as Russian scientists perfected and orbited their
,satellite. White' House Syrup
I can understand, the psychological "necessity for official calmness in Washington, but I think the ,American people are mature enough to ,preclude the
. necessity for ,some of the soothirig syrup being released in caleUlated doses by White House
. press secretary Hagerty, Sherman Adams and others..
I think it' is possible, and nec,,: essary, for Wf,lshington to be calm without, at the same time being misleading. And I think it is misleading to pretend there is no great "significance'" in the Rmsians' accomplishment.
American and English scientists are not so political minded and they have rather candidly declared that the successfullaunchl'ng of an earth satelll'te' into outer space is a considerable scientific accomplishment pregnant with mili~ary signifi cance.
Remarkable, Triumph The' Russian feat means the
S . ts I h th l'nter' OVle can aunc e, continental 'ballistic ~issile, whose trajectory would "peak" in outer space before the missile would descend to its target. It is true that the problem of re'entry into the earth's atmosphei'e is a formidable one, ,but the Russians' have ,obviously worked out the first half of an I~BM's journey, a stage at which Western scientists have not yet arrived.
After a flurry of I-told-youso's and stronger recriminatory' remarks that had 'unseemly pol;. 'itical partisan overtones in them' (as if this were just another Republican vs. Democrat issue), discussion of the Russian satel-'
people, in or out 'of government, have drawn what I should call" Hultimate conclusions" from the Soviet scientis'ts' remarkable triumph.
It is not simply that more students specialize in science and research in Russia than they d.o in the U. S. It is not simply that Russia officially encourages scientific learning. And it is not simply that a few German scientists were captured by Russia after the "last war and were put to work by the Soviet Union.
Food for Thought These fads are important, but
I think they 'are not as impor,tant as certain social, psycholog-Icaland cultural differences between Russia and the U. S., dif ferences which I think we ,might
'profitably consider if, as we suspect, Russia is now.outstripping.us in science and research.'
In recent years, American tourists, returning from' Russia, have' spoken 'disparagingly of
. the low standard of living in the clothing worn by the Russian woman, of. the long hours of hard work of the peasant, his wife and children, of the scarcity· of luxury articles in the Russlim stores, automobiles on the Russian streets, and televi.., sion in the Russian homes.
Somehow, the, conclusion drawn from these facts was one oi confidence,almost smugness. How could any nation so bereft
,of these elementals of civilization be a threat to tl:Ie U. S.?
But I must confess that as I listened to our returning tourists, their observations left me not with confidence but with a
'certain, unease. For it/seemed to me that there was in the Russian, people a hardiness, a health,y' unconcern about soft living and easy transportation and creature comforts in gen
'eral ~ qualities that were all the more disturbing when one surveyed the American scene and made comparisons.
It seemed to' me 'that Russia, today, is in the same dynamic, psychological situation in which the U. S. found itself, say. in the mid-19th century when there was 'a premium onhardi-. I do not think our civilization nesS, when the American found bin an irreversible decline, nor challenges exhilarating, not de':. do I think that we have allowed pressing or distasteful, and ourselves to become hopelessly :when purposefulness was, never soften'ed by a civilization of our substantially: undermined by own' making.

ACT NO,Wing" thing~ or persons not for' wha.t they can do for us but for what is' real in them: it means loving things or persons for OFFER LIMITEDwhat they are, and it is rooted in loving God for what He' is. (This we have already noted in the strongest reason for learning what He is - that is for studying Theology.)
Habit Grows in Us Faith, Hope and Charity are
called habits by the theol.-ogians, and this is not simply a tech., nicality. If we think over our natural habits; we see that there is Ii "real change in ourselves after ~e' acquire them; some': thing in our very natures leadin~' ~.s to: act in certain ~ays ~ to' qrink cocktails, for instance,' \. ol'''answ~r. back sarcastically. ',.' We say that a given habit grows" on u!l. Really it grows in us, becomes 'secorid nature. The' theologians 'appiy the word to an)" ,modific~tion, whether in bOdf .or soul, which disposes us either. to do things we did not dol;>efore or do more easily, or competeptly things we did. The skill of a pianist is a habit. '
It is in this °sense that the Theological Virtues are habits. They are really in our very soliIs, ..and they enable us to ,do things which without them would be impossible for us. They differ' from natural habits in the way we acquire them. A' natural habit is acquired ,gradua!Jy, as we repeat some par :;ticl,llar action over and over aga,in: supernatural habits are given 'to us in an instant by, "FREE ELECT,R'C '~£ANI(ET W'.TH God.

Catholic parents accept the sacrifice of a dual government and s~lf.,imposed taxation because . of the deep conviction that God, who is the sovereign fact in life, must of., necessity be the sovereign face in educa-. tion; that education cannot maintain a strict and lofty neutrality towards God; that such neutrality is inconceivable in theory and unattainable in practice; and that every a: tempt to preserve such neutrality has .resulted, by default if not intent, in religious' indifferentism, secularism and in the final and total impact of anti-religionism," Bisho» Krol asserted.

My wife and I were divorced six months ago after being observed at Jesus Mary Acad.. ~married for nearly two years. She wasn't interested in hav emy, Fal,l River with daily pro,": ing a family and insisted'on holding her'job after marriage. grams in:,theauditorium; O,ur pastor tried 'to help but got nowhere. I've just heard With the cooperation of Revthat she has remarried. Where does that leave me? I'm 26 and have my whole .
hfe ahead· of me. I've already discovered how difficult it is to live alone. What can I
, clo now? ' '
"
It won't be much consola-, tion to you, jack, I' know, b!1t ; every: year L:::." around 800,000,', ,~p menandwomen ' find themselves In your predicament because fif ciivorce.AC-:-' cording to reli able estimates,the majority of them eventually remarrY, as your wife nas already ,done. If they were validly married in the firs~ place, they.are not capable of contracting another real marriage during the lifetime of their former cfartner, no matter what, .that partner may do, As yOIl well know, their attempt ~, marry again is not a marriage before God. 'They are living together merely with state or civil permission. They cannot receive any saving grace through. the sacraments. They are l,ving .t odds with God and with their own consciences.
Facing Difficulties
As a (;a'tholic, you reco~ni:r:e
these facts, but as a normal adult male living in' modern SOCI.:.'ty, you are beginning to' realize that you face tremendous difficultie!ll. There are many reasons why 'his is true. First, you' were trained 'and grew up with the expectatiortthat marriage was to be your vocation in life. Your outlook, habits, education and
. work were more or less closely ~lated to this expectation.
Second, although your marriage was apparently not a happy one, you did acquire some of the habits and experiences no.rmally associated with married life. This implies' that you now probably' have a better- understanding of what a successful marriage could mean in your life. In this respect, your problem diff':!rs from the normal unmarried male.
Third, most of the, strictly social activities in modern adul1 Society are organized ar lund and Gn the basis of the couple or family. This means you will find it difficult to participate in them as a singl? person. '
Leads to Love
Fourth, Jrequent association between a man and woman of marriageable age easily le'ais to mutual attraction and love. 'As a result, you cannot'safely trust' yourself to go on dates as an unmarried man could~ You may, argue that there's nothing wrong 'in dating a girl: only, once, but the number Of available respectable girls is limited, ar.d you would soon find you we.re dating the same girl more frequently,
Hence, we can only coilchide that you are going to face frustration of your hopes for'marriage, added difficulty, in controllil)g your desire for affection and sexual experience, and considerable restrictions on' YOllr
, social activities. How can a nor-" : mal. man "handle this situation! :: Let ,us: be frank and realistic"',. !}You need herbie' virtue if you' are' !;i~ perse~e~~. ' . '<:/,:'" ,1", ..
'Need Divine Help, How do you acquire this? In
t~e first p~ace, you.' have the hIghest motives both m term8 of ~ving your soul and gUarding your' r,eace of mind. You 3.,ve' the firm con"iction that you are livir.~ in friendship ,with God and a('cording to Hh law. Secor.d, you need divine help. God offers this to you through prayer and the sacraments. You would be
a foolt~h if you thought you could handle this problemalone..Third, you must use common sense in organizing your life: This 'means that you will be lioilestwith yourself in' avoiding company with the opposite sex. You will
.be tempted to fool yourself here,', ,but look at the eXpeJ.·;.'m<.e of tithers, It ,also ,means, th~t ,youlJlust find some activities which will be wor-th-while enough to take up your time, energy and interest. Some ,men find this in additional schooling, or by engaging in charitable and religious actiyities which are' !!Ufficiently important to require their best ~ffort. There is generally work 9' such nature to'be done if one' has an eye for it. ,I agree '!Vith Yl,)u, Jack, this is
.no easy program: Remember, the stakes' are high-your own :.elf-respect and peace of soul. The .civil 'law allows you to follow the crowd, but you must always end :up' by living with y{'.~r own conscience-and with (;'(ld.

Outlining the upiversity's important i'ole in the Chicago com-, munity for the past 87 years, Mr: Stebler said universities like Loyola"serve the community "by educating the future industrial executives and by helping to shape the intellectual, social and economic history of the area."

Collaboration 'with .·La'.ty:· HOLLYWOOD (NC) - The Saturday, Oct. 26, Holy Cross System.
By Rev. »eRnUl J. Geaney, ().S.A~
These lines are being written while the 2,300 delegates from 91 nations are still in Rome participating in the Second World Congress of the Lay Apostolate.
In the opening address Father said: "If today the conscience' of lay apostles has been awakened and if the term 'lay apostolate' is one of the most widely used when one speaks of the activity of the Church, it is because the collaboration of the laity with the hierarc h y has never been as necessary nor .practiced in such a sys
tematic way." . There is no doubt about it. The Church Is throwing its full weight behind the lay apost~ late. It is the demanos VL tile times, the very urgency of the hour, that is pressing the Church to engage the laity in combat. It is either a mobilization of the laity or a gradual withdra~al
. from the. Church's influence among men everywhere, It is simply an "either or" proposition.
Decline' Lay Action The layman has always had
a share in the mission of the Church. This was particularly true in' the first three centuries. However, during the Middle Ages, due to political circumstances the roles of Church and State, priest and layman, were not delineated, with the result that to a large degree the clerical side of the Church absorbe~ the functions of the lay. They even ceased saying "Amen" to the liturgical prayers of the Mass. They became reduced to passive, contributing members.
Historically it was the advent of the industrial era that pointed up the problem. For the first time in the history of the world mass education became- a possibility. This widespread search for trutI. began and is still taking place to a. large degree outside the sphere of the Church's influence. The tremendous advances in the social and technological sciences took place without the ancillary presence of the Church.
Church Understaffed .
to the assembly the Holy with an iron hand while he 'loveingly protected them from the exploitations of the city slicker must change with the times. Changing gears for older priests is not easy; and ·for that matter, I suppose, the majority of the laity would just as soon have things' the way they are. But thank. God there is an even growing number of priests and lay people sensitive to the Church's mission in our times and sufficiently restless to desire achange.
We can expect to see many changes in the roles of the priest and iaity 'as time goeS on. 'Recently I attended a banquet of our diocesan Council of'Catholic . Women. "Instead of the priests· and laity sitting 'at segregated tables I noticed the priests were scattered at the tables thro&ghout the hall. This is a mere straw in the wind but a' telltale sign of the direction in which we are moving.

Serrans ·to Meet At New. London
The sixth New England regional conference of Serra International will be held tomorrow and Saturday at New London under 'the patronage of Most Rev. Bernard J. Flanagan, D.D., ·J.C.D, Bishop of Norwich;
Two panel workshops will be· held Saturday morning following mass at St. Mary's Church. Bishop Flanagan will address the Serrans at a Saturday luncheon. Two more panel workshops will be held Saturday afternoon.
A social hour' will be held tomorrow night and plans will beanounced for the Saturday sessions.
Adrian J. Brennan is District Governor of the Province of Hartford, host for the regional conference. Elmer Philbin is District Governor of the province of Boston which include!l the clubs in the Fall River Diocese.
The democratic state and the 1naustrial world were born when the Church was weakest. Karl Marx was a product of' these times and his teachings went for long unchallenged. In Pony case he stole the initiative from the Church in the dawning of this new era.
Add to the melancholy litariy of the 19th century the population explosion of the twentieth, when the Church is asked to cope with the rising numerical tide of peoples and their new felt national aspirations at a time when the Church is under staffed clerically in some of the older Christian countries.
Answer-Teamwork There is no mystery to the
fact that the current of life does not flow through the rectory door. It is a place one goes to arrange for a baptism, a ma'rrhlge or a burial service. People may ring the doorbell occasionally when they are at wit's end to know what to do with a'straying partner or an alcoholic member of the family, but rarely do they come to the rectory to find how the truths of Christ have relevance to the economic, political, . recreational, and educational areas of· life.
The lay apostola'te is the answer. It· is not the lay people

Red Tito Gives West Germany Double Cross
WASHINGTON (NC)Tito has finally dropped his pose as 'a fence straddler in the East-West conflict, and a lot of observers here are tempted to say "I told you so."
By according' recognition to the Soviet puppet government in East Germany-a major doubleeross of the West German government, which had befriended bim-and by aligning Yugoslavia solidly with Moscow in the United Nations disarmament debate, Marshal Tito has jettisoned Yugoslavia's attempt to play the role of an "uncommitted" nation.
He has rocked Yugoslavia back on its rightful course as a satellite-still a maverick, but wilp an orbit much closer to the Kremlin than Sputnik's.
Tito's sudden announcement that Yugoslavia would exchange ambassadors with the East Germany he had promised not to recognize was an ideally timed propaganda move for the communist world.)t came on the eve of the first session of the newly elected West German Bundestag, held in West Berlin to emphasize the Bonn government's contention that Germany should rightfully be unified. Thus instead of stressing the need for unity, the meeting served only to empha
. 8ize the chasm between East and West. . Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's government had stated in the past that it would sever diplomatic relations with any nation that recognized the East German regime. So while Mr. Adenauer was said to oppose any drastic move against Yugoslavia on grounds that it would prove nothing, it came as a surprise here when Bonn recalled its ambassador from Belgrade.
Double Cross Still in the air was the ques
tion of German aid to Yugoslavia. In the past year, the Bonn government has granted Tito a 99-year loan, of about $57' million and agreed to pay over $14 million as World War II reparations.
Also still in the air, and very much so, was the question of United States aid to Yugoslavia. Since Tito's break with Stalin in 1948, American aid to Yugoslavia has come to a whopping $1,200,000,000. A Yugoslav economic mi$sion headed by Tito's finance minister held a three-day. conference with American officials here in Washington in the early part· of October.
Backs Soviets When Yugoslavia's recognition
of East Germany was announced, the State Department officially announced its "regret" and said it doubted the move would "contribute to a settlement of the German problem."
The same day, Yugoslav Foreign Minister Koca Popovic rose up in the U.N. General Assembly to give what he' called an "unbiased appraisal" of the disarmament conflict. He promptly asserted that the stand taken earlier by the U. S., Britain and France was devoid of "real reason"and thus"wholly untenable," and wound up backing all the demands made by Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko.·
So the Tito regime is now "announced" on the Kremlin side in all major foreign policy matters -even including support of the puppet government of Janos Kadar in Hungary.
When the State Department expressed its regret over Yugoslav recognition of East Germany, it m~de'no mention of the American aid program. But it was assumed here that Congress will have much to say when it returns in January.
There has been opposition for years to aid to a government which abuses and enslavr.; its own people. But it has been overridden by pragmatists who claimed that such assistance was insurance to prevent .yugoslavia from again becoming a Soviet satellite. While aid mi&l1t have setved some useful purpose· in the past,. a new day has' now come.

THE HOLY FATHER has a Congregation of the Propaganda in Rotite which is charged with the administration of all the Missions of the Church. Recently this Congregation sent.to all the office~ of the Holy Father's Society for the Propagation of the Faith, a summary of the major problems of the Church in the Mission world.
UNION OF SOUTH AFRICA The Church has refused to <accept the law th1,!t negroes are not to enter churches opened since
January 1, 1938. The' Bishops have answered saying that the churches .are for all Catholics regardless of the color of the skin.
SUDAN The government of Khartumhas . seized Catholic schools to secularize them.
.Two hundred village schools, 40 elementary schools and.3 normal sChools were taken. This represents a fi'nancial loss of $3,000,000 and this in a land; where the congregation· was aske'd to colied money to buy a bicycle for a newly ordained priest so he C(luld visit his missions. All the generous people='could scrape together was 60c. The Bishop had to supply the $23 to buy the bicycle.
INDIA The smallest of the Indian states· 'is Kerala-the most Christian state in India. Out of 13,500,000 people about 3,500,000 are Catholic. But the Communists control Parliament. Their first action was to declare war on Catholic schools by making the'm educational centers for Communism.

Mr. Dulles made the statement in conjunction with. National Catholic Youth Week, which will open the Feast of Christ the King.
In a letter to Msgr. Joseph E. Schieder, director of the Youth Department, National Catholic Welfare Conference, Mr. Dulles said: "By inspiring our youth to cultivate and expand spiritual values in everyday life, you are helpin'g to meet the challenges of a most critical era."
"The continuing efforts of youf yout!- council to guide our youth on the road to good citizenship deserve the gratitude of our en.. tire nation."

"I feel honored to have the opportunity to olTer greetings to the seven million young Catholics who will participate in the seventh annual observance of National Catholic Youth Week.

In all these years these poor people have not foul'ld the means to build an ade· quate chapel. So, they finally begged the Ho!J' Father Jor $2.000.

Knowland Again 'Warns of Danger In Underestimating'. Re~s' Gains
SAN FRANCISCCO (NC) To underestimate Soviet accomplishments, nuclear or satellite, is to endanger the frt:(!' world.
This warning came from ·U.S. Sen. William R. Kn0wland of California, in a talk at 'the Association of Catholic Newsmen Communion breakfast here.
Prefacing comments on ·Red China, Sen. Knowland outlined Soviet foreign policy' as, characterized by two·things:
1) Unrele.nting pressure aimed at "the destruction of human freedom everywhere."
2) The worthlessness of 'international agreements or treaties. signed by the Reds.
Always the Same "Soviet policy may change its
course, - may zig from right to left, but· its long-ter.m objective is always the same - to wipe out freedom," Mr. Knowland said. "Toward the major powers, the policy is to' drive a wedge between them. Toward smaller nations, it is outright intimidation~ . .
The Senator said that as a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee he had heard "no testimony presented to show a change in the Soviet's long-range goal."
He pointed to Russia's record on treaties. "They have violated every treaty signed with noncommunist nations - and at a time that suited their convenience.
Free China "This includes nonaggression
pacts with Albania and Poland, non-intervention treaties with Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria and Rumania, and the United Nations Charter itself in the Korean War. Less than a year after the Korean cease-fire, the Kremlin admitted that it had lent moral and military support to the North Korean communist forces."
On Red China, the Senator said its admission to the United Nations, "will undermine the moral position of'the UN.''' He spoke of the value of maintaining a 'Free China on Formosa.
"The 9,500,000 Free Chinese there give overseas Chinese a source of hope.. Chiang Kaishek's army of 600,000, fourth largest in the free world, providesa military bastion against the Reds. Loss of those troops would let the Reds cut our sea lanes in the Far East and would
drive a wedge into our line at defense.
Jefferson Statement 'And Formosa, while it stands,
means the flag of .a Free China will be kept waving at the United Nations."
The Senator continued: "As long as there is hope for
'freedom, there is hope for a free' world. If we lend support to keeping people behind the lr.on Curtain, we destroy that. hepc for freedom.
I know of no better pledge than. Thomas Jefferson's state-·· ment: 'I have sworn on the altar of God eternal hostility to every
. form of tyranny over the mind of man.'''
Winona Pre;ate Named Bishop
·WASHINGTON (NC) - Pope Pius XII has named Msgr. Fred.. erick W. Freking, 44, spiritual director of the North American College in Rome, as Bishop of the Diocese of Salina, Kansas.
Bishop-elect Freking, who was -chancellor of the Diocese of Winona, Minn., when named to the staff'of the Rome college in March 1953, succeeds Bishop Frank A. Thill as spiritual leader of the Salina diocese. Bishop Thill died on May 21 at the age of 63.
Bishop-elect Freking was born at Heron Lake, Minn., on August 11, 1913. He was ordained in Rome in May 31, 1938. He studied at Immaculate Heart of Mary Seminary, Winona, and the North American College and Gregorian' University, both illl Rome. 0
The Bishop-elect was the first editor of the Winona edition of Our Sunday Visitor, newspaper of the diocese, now known as the Courier and published independently. He was for a time secretary to Archbishop Leo Binz of Dubuque, v·hen the latter was Coadjutor Bishop of Winona.
Convel?t Dnes BlNGHAMTON (NC) - Prof.
Henry C. F. Staunton, 79, an Episcopalian pastor who became a Catholic in 1925 and taught English at the TJnive-,it. of Notre Dame .from that year to 1952, died here (Oct. 5) in Lourdes Hospital. Mr. Staunton was the recipient of the 1943 No~e Dame Lay Faculty Award.

two varieties of Paul Blanshards at work in America today. their temper wears thin and the There is the kind that goes under that name, the darling of candid reader is treated to an the POAU, and there is the exalted intellectual sort that outbreak of exasperation. would scorn the name or the association, yet differs from the professed bigot Rot in kind but only in degree.
Blanshard, under his own name, has pretty well shot his bolt. He has written and talked himself out, and about all that C8q be expected of him now is a rather tedious repetition of the same stock. charges against the Catholic Church. This is by no means to underrrate his cleverness or his perspicacity. He is incomparably more able, or should we say facile, than the soinewhat heavy-handed type of Catholic=baiter who preceded him. But even so, there is an element of coarsen'ess in his appeal and. his associations.
Blanshard on the same lecture platform with assorted rabblerousers of dubious background
. and unsavory reputation has not cut a graceful' figure. Indeed, there have been occasions when he has quite obviously labored Ill1der some embarrassment from his entourage, not so much be~ause of what was said as because .of the gross manner of saying it. It is the price a man pays for engaging in the kind of professional campaigning he has followed for the past decade or so. His lines ha~e been cast with some remarkably unpleasant people, and it is hardly surprising that he should periodically
o lapse into their language and method.
Indifferent Success Besides, it is. difficult' for a
man who hates to .be consistently dignified about it. Strong emotions of the sort are not kept under restraint without an al most superhuman effort,' and poor Mr. Blanshard has had rather indifferent success in .this regard. His pathological hatred for the Church has upset him only too often, with the result that he h;;lS lapsed from the highest standards of a gentleman. In a word, he has committed the unpardonable sin of boorishness.
It is this, .together with his characteristic propensity to mis,. quotation, which has rendered him, in turn, an object of' some embarrassment to these other Blanshards who dwell in 'much
. more rarified atmosphere of intellectual contemplation" They regret his brashness, they look askance at his platform buffoonery. One is rem i n d e d strongly of the attitude of gen

Delicate Art It is not, of course, that they
do not share with him, heartily, ·a hatred for the Catholic Church. The difference is that they would hold the tiger in leash, minding its manners, and even smiling. now and then to show its gold teeth. Not for them the crude bludgeoning of the .big stick but the delicate art of the poniard.
-Tli.ey adopt, with proper interpretation, the hi"storic motto of Maryland:. Male deeds, feminine words, l.nd it. is sheerly amazing.
· how very feminine their words" can be.
Take, 'for example, the edito_' rial policy of any of a dozen or so of the magazines which professto cater to the tastes and interests of. the American intelli gentsia. They are uniformly liberal, or at least they try desperately to be, and they are al most excessively urbane. They never dream of descending to
· billingsgate, though they are not above an occasional sly dig' at Christian morality. But it is 'characteristic of them that they accept for pul;>lication, at inter';' vaIs too regular to be purely coincidental, articles which' m'ost learnedly and professionally dispose of the Church. Admirably written, they rarely display the slightest note of irritation- or bad temper. They are witty, amusing, and devastating.

Vision @f Werld at Pe~ce . DALLAS (NC)-The master
idea of Pope -Fius XII is the ,"vision of a world at p~ce, the
/' dream of the human 'family organized in collaborative unity
. under. a universal law;" Jesuit .Father Timothy L. Bouscaren declared here.
The noted author and canonist addressed the national convention· of the Canon Law Society.
Father. Bouscaren, who has been stationed in Rome, said
. that the Pope has .pointed .out to jurists the necessity of bas
. ing their science on the only foundation which cim 'support it - the moral law.
Canonists have been bidden by the Pope to look to Christ as the Leader in whom alone is the hope of freedom and unity of mankind, Father Bouscaren said. He said that the way to unite mankind is through love
·in the heart of .Christ, and he reminded that the purpose of life is to achieve eternal happiness by just relations with other men in local and international' fields.

Conflicts of Law Father Kenneth R. O'Brien of
Los Angeles, spoke on the conflicts of canon law with local and national civil law. He said that generally speaking the diocese adopts' the civil law of. an area, but emphasized that a diocese never will subscribe to a civil law which contravenes the divine law.
Msgr. John F. Gannon, Chancellor of the. Worcester Diocese, spoke on church insurance, particularly fire insurance. He pointed out that in the last year some 50 churches in the United States were destroyed by fire and said that in 15 of these cases it was apparent that the fires had been caused by arsonists.

Pr~~~®~ DD~(qJint.lTee C@Mln1fy" ·As ·Gwae@i Motion Pi<eture
By William ·H. Mooring .' "Raintree County", MGlVI's. three-hour translation of the bulky Civil War novel by the late Ross Lockridge Jr., will be widely' compared with David O. Selznick's movie of Margaret Mitchell's "Gone With The Wind.". Some will say ieis better, some that it is not as good; still others that, since the. two books were ali!:e only in period and quite different in' other essen
. tial respects, there is no sense in comparison. Personally . I find this film, "Raintree County" more to my taste t-h an. "Gone With The Wind", just as [ did the book.
Ross Lockridge Jr., )Vith his DOvel, won the $150,000 firs.t prize in MGM's story-writing contest, which neither raised his hopes nor doused his discontent. &) much for financial success llJid. Hollywood fame, neither of which now means as much' to hiin .as the tiniest prayer.
. As "Raintree County" begins a highly. publicized ~'road show," which, to .you, means' advanced
! prices at special theaters, the · name Ross Lockridge Jr. is '. barely discernible at the bot
tom of the lengthy screen credits,' .while that of Montgomery Clift, seen as John Shawnessy,
· blazes at the top. Young Lockridge had gone, by tragic. deed, lorig befor.e.his widely discussed novel could be batted into screen shape as has now been done with some fidelity by Millard Kaufman.- : . Civil War Background
Lockridge etched his ,charact~rs. against a background ofr the Civil War, while Margaret Mitchell plunged hers more deeply into it. Lockridge took more account of the color line arid in his defence of abolition hinted with more heat at equality. This tends to bring '~Raintree County" clo'ser to current racial controversies than "Gone With The Wind" even though slavery, not segregation, is debated in the theme. "-
Lockridge chose for his central male character, John Shawnessy, an idealist of strong emotional drive and puny physique,
· a role in which Montgomery o Clift at times reveals moods of
sickness that are apparently shared in reality with the char-' acter. "Gone With The Wind" kept in central focus the handsome, m'uscular Rhett Butler to whom the authoress imputed that rom"antic irresistibility which is the theatrical delight of all movie hams and their fans.
Again, while she set her narrative largely. in and. around the city of Atlanta, Lockridge favored rural backdrops in a . mythical Indiana county. These have been caugh<' with breath-taking grandeur in and around n"nvill €, .Ky~, Tipton~e, Te1ll1., and Natchez, Miss.
Then too" MGM were able to film "Raintree County" in their new wide screen process, Cam'era 65, using improved Technicolor and sound recording unavailable when "Gone With The Wind" was filmed.
Ma~ Sweep' Board The Southern femme fatale
of "Raintree,~' Susanna Drake, vividly brought to life by Eliz'abeth Taylor, seems less a crea_ ture of theatrical fiction than Scarlett O~Hara who, in "Gone With The Wind" brought Vivienne Leigh an Academy Oscar. And speaking of Oscars, one foresees that "Raintree County" may "sweep. the· board" next· March. Elizabeth Taylor, as the· sadly possessive wif€ of 'John Shawnessy is almost certain to be nominated and may win. So may the film itself" as· did "Gone With the Wind" in 1939.
Eva Marie Saint, as Shawnessy-s Northern Sweetheart Nell, may also' be nomin·ated. and' among many brilliant supportirig performances' those of Nigel Patrick as the eccentric profes!?or
Stiles . and· . Lee Marvin .as "Flash" Perkins are well in therunning,
More often than the Lockridge book, this film draws veils of delicacy over the displays of human passion. Whiie, like a good book, tackling it is a leis:" urely exprience, even those who feel provoked by its controversies, will recognize its scope and integrity.
I think "Raintree' County" is a great motion picture.
Stars Are Silent One is often asked why Cath~
olic actors consent to appear in plays that are so bad, morally, that their fellow Catholics may not, with a good conscience, patronize them. , This is easy to over-simplify..
Some Catholics do refuse. Others accept offers which present prob_ lems of conscience, either in the hope'that they can In:inimize the moral defects or the belief that results will not be as bad as they eventually turn out to be.
Some appear' not to care in the least to what kind of shows they lend their talents. Columbia's "Pal Joey", from the Rogers and Hart musical which originated with Johri O'Hara's bGok, seems to fali into the latter class.
This film, like the stage show,

It is sad, therefore, to note tnat Dorothy' Kingsley, a practicing Catholic, wrote the screenplay in which three baptized: Catholics, Frank Sinatra, Rita Hayworth and Kim Novak co-star. '. Even the director, George Sidney, proudly claims one Catholic parent .as evidence of ~easonable respect for decency in entertainment.
