Iwouldlike,however,to makeafewobservationsin general,andinparticular concerningtheletterof PaulO'Donnell,appearing intheissueof"TheRecord"datedAugust14.

Itseemsapityafterall thestatementsPopeshave madeonCatholicAction, andafteralltheuphillwork doneamongstusbysomany priests,thatthereshould beanywhocanholdup eithertheorganisation,or theaimsoftheBoyScouts' movementastheiridealfor CatholicAction.Onefeels thatthisisnotmeantseriouslyandthatitisonlya joke.Ifsoitisajokeof poortasteandonethat _readsbadlyinprint.

Infairness,letmepoint out.thattheYouthMovementsinmanyparishesdividetheproceedsoftheir dancesintothreeparts.One thirdisfortheN.C.G.M., onethirdfortheY.C.W., andone-thirdforparish funds.Inthisway,the movementsmustbedoing quitesomeworkforthese parishes.And,wherethis divisionisnottakingplace, itcanonlybebecausethe parishpriestdoesnotwish ittobeso,

Moreover,inanyparish wherethereisaParents' andCitizens'association,if thatbodyapproachedthe Y.C.W.andN.C.G.M.in areasonableway,Iwould besurprisediftheseorganisationsdidnotgivewhat helptheycouldconsistently withtheapostolicaimand scopeofCatholicAction. Ifeel,somehow,thatmore mightbeaccomplishedin thiswaythanbywriting whatmustberegardedas irresponsible,andperhaps merelyprovocative,letters to"TheRecord."

InnowaycantheattitudeoftheYouthmovementsbeinterpretedas"intolerancetoParents'associations,"andourrelations withtheBoyScoutshave alwaysbeenthoseoffriendlyco-operation.

Theexecutivesofthe movements,andthoseresponsibleforthem,aresatisfiedwiththegraduateopportunitieswhichexistat present.Whentheseare inadequate,furtherprovisionwillbemade.MeanwhileletusnotwritedisparaginglyoftheSt.VincentdePaulsocietyandthe LegionofMary,asifthey wereunworthybodiesto absorbmovementmembers.

Toaskthempersonal questionsinthecolumnsof "TheRecord,"concerning howtheyaregettingon withtherearingoftheir childrenis,Ithink,offensive.Andtoaskthemare they"asinformedoneducationastheywouldliketo be,oras'we'needthem tobe,"isveryhardtounderstand.

AreSelf-Supporting

Wecometothelast charge-themovementsare notself-supporting,and withthisImostheartily disagree.ForMr.O'Donnell'sinformationtheY.C.W. andN.C.G.M.donotreceiveanygrantsfromCatholicActionfunds.They existontheirmembers' subscriptions.Theservices ofatypistarekindlyloaned byD.I.S.C.A.andanywork doneispaidfor.AssecretaryofthelocalbranchI knowthis.Officespaceis alsoprovidedgratisalthough Ibelievethatthisistobe paidforshortly.

Theideaofeveningduties israthertoofar-fetchedto operate.ForMr.O'Donnell's furtherinformationeach parishhasacensus,alsoan electedcensus-keeper,which liststhenames,abilities,interestsetc.,ofallknown youthoftheparish.Getting thedetailsislefttothe censuskeeperandalllists areconstantlybeingrevised andaddedto.
