CITY (NC)-Pope Paul VI has warned to hide, modify or deny' Necrolo!9Y "'those teachings of the Catholic Church which are not , JAN. 29 today accepted by the separated brethren." Christianity, he Rev. Christiano J. Borges, said, "is a divine truth which able of' engaging in the eCUmen- ' 1944, Pastor, St. John Baptist, is not given to us to change ieal dialogue "by means of a New Bedford.

Ciithoii~s. against the temptation

In an address'to those attend­ ing his weekly general audience during the Chair of Unity Oc­ tave, Pope Paul noted that he wlis speaking "during a week dedicated to prayer and study for-the great cause of the recom­ posItion within the sin g I e Church of Christ of those who believe in Him and who are now separated among themselves and from us."

Temptation The temptation attracts not only those who are ignorant of theological questions, the Pope said, but even experts "who seek, often in good faith, some expedi­ ent rationale for' smoothing out the way of coming together with the separated brethren.

"The intention is good. The method is not."

From the Catholic point of view, Pope Paul continued, "to want to recognize how much good is still found in the patri­ mony of the church~s and Chris­ tian confessions detached from out Church is fine. To want, to present Catholic doctrine in its authentic and essential aspects, leaving aside its debatable and nonessential aspects, is fine.

Charity "It is fine, too, to seek to pre­ sent controversial points in terms which can render them more exact and understandable even in regard to those who do not share them. This is brotherly patience * * * This is charity at the service of truth.

"But to pretend to resolve doc­ trinal difficulties by seeking to discredit or disregard or conceal affirmations which the teaching authority of the Church declares binding and definitive is not a good service.".

This does not aid Christian unity efforts, the Pope said, be­ cause it either arouses suspicions or creates false hopes. It also makes Catholics fear that unity is sought "at the price of truth."

Pope Paul said he hopes to make Catholics ever more cap­ 11IE ANCHOR !econcl Class Postage Paid It Fall River, Mass Published every Thursday at 410 Mighland AVenutl, Fall Rive, Mass, by the Catholle Press of the Diocese of Vall River.

Says War on Poverty More Than Political Gimmick

Laymen to Lead Anti-poverty War

DENVER (NC)-"The war on poverty in the United States is jusi beginning. It is' not a political gimmick that will end with the present administration." That is the opin­ ion. qf Msgr. Raymond J. Gallagher, executive secretary of the National Conference of gram. He estimated that a half Catholic Charities, who be­ million child-ren between three lieves that attempts to affix and six go without direct par­ a ," political smokescreen" ental supervision regularly, and label on the anti-poverty pro­ gram amounts to "superficial thinking."

Eager to Assist Msgr. Gallagher feels that the poverty campaign was a l~t of "talk" prior and up to the No­ ,,-ember election but contends that federal, state and local of­ ficials are now taking a calm, objective look at making the program a permanent one.

"The anti-poverty program opens up whole new avenues in attacking the social and eco­ nomic problems that have arisen in the UnIted States," he observ­ ed.

"It was time that we took a good look at the socia:l and eco­ nomic illls that the AmericaR YMY of Hfe produced after two generations of prosperity-gener~ ations that have not known the ha·rd times of the 1930s."

Msgr. Gallagher emphasized that Catholic charities offkes all over the nation are piacing "'existing facilities at the disposal of community program direc­ tors," and will in no way du­ plicate or intrude in work being done by public charitable agen­ cies.

Centers and Homes He cited child care centers and homes fur the aged as two specific areas in which Catholic eharities offices could partici­ pate in the anti-poverty pro-

that by the mid-1970s we will have 21 million elderly persons in the U. S. .

"The demand for these centers and homes for the aged and the personnel to man them, is going to grow," he continued. "Not only will the young men and women who take this training be learning a skill that will insure .steady' employment, but I think they will become better individ­ uals in the process."

Sulpician Favors Effort to Soften Divisive Issues

Rev. Walter A. Sullivan, Dio­ cesan Director of the CYO, euglogized the late CYO secre­ tary, Samuel J. Priestly, at an evening Solemn Mass of Requi­ em Mass celebrated Monday in St. Mary's Cathedral, Fall River.

Speaking in the presence of Bishop Connolly, Father Sulli­ van stated that Sam Priestly, by his dedicated work in the CYO, made many realize the things that should be done for youth.

"His life was a dedication to service of and for youth. He ac­ cepted the challenge of this ded­ ication as a young man ... and continued his close contact with the young by leadership and en­ couragement."

Plans Variation Of Shared Time

WASIDNGTON (NC)

· The reunion of Oatholic and

· Protestant churches would · fulfill the "deepest desires"

SWANTON (NC) -Plans are wnierway to enable public school students to take vocation­ al training courses at a parochial high school operated by the Ed­ mundite Fathers here in Ver­ mont.

The unusual switch in shared­ time schooling has been made possible because St. Anne's Academy has a vocational train­ ing shop superior to those in nearby Swanton and Highgate High Schools. In most places, shared-time programs have been devised to enable private school students to attend technical courses in public schools.

Father John LaBrake, S.S.E., principal of St. Anne's, said the two public schools have ex­ pressed interest in exchanging students for some courses. The Catholic students would take courses in automotive mechanics at the public schools.

"We already have 12 of our own boys working in the shop, helping to get it underway," said Father LaBrake. "But we could probably take care of 30 boys in two sections by using the machinery every afternoon."

Church that is truly reformed and truly united according to Jlather Avery Dulles, S.J. The Jesuit theologian told a eongregation at the National Shrine of the Immaeulate Con­ eeption that the present ecumen­ Ical council is carrying out the reform envisaged for the Catho­ lic Church by Luther and left !Incomplete by the Council of Trent in 1563.

Speaking of Luther's "unfin­ Ished reformation, "Father Dul­ les said the Protestant Reform­ ation had "enormous positive significance" for Catholics be­ cause it came at a time when '"Christian piety was undermined by the scandalous lives of some churchmen, by rampant super­ stitions and by theological teach­

By Mary .Tinley Daly Two incidents, small in themselves, have somehow almost prophetically enmeshed, timewise, to rescue us from the ulcer circuit. The first concerns, of all things, an egg timer! We noticed this piece of kitchen equipment on Gin­ ny's desk when we paid a recent visit to our college streams.

"Help me to know the magical, sophomore. "Fix your own restoring power of sleep. breakfast, Ginny?" we ask­ "Teach me the art of taking ed, pointing to the egg timer. "In the dorm kitchenette instead of going to the dining room?"

"Oh, that," Gin­ ny laughed.

"You know me and boiled eggs, we're allergie to each other. I use it sometimes when I'm call­ ing you long distance" (From the size of our telephone bin, that "sometimes" should read "very rarely," but that's beside the point.)

"I use it when I'm studying,· Ginny explained, "and it really helps. I used to start one sub­ ject, then panic thinking of another assignment. I'd end up nothing done right."

"But the timer?" we puzzled. "'Three minutes per subject?"

One at A Time ''No, just the idea behind it: only one tiny grain of sand can go through at a time. Each grain goes through, one after the other, and the thing does what it's sup­ posed to do, mark an accurate three minutes. Maybe I'm nuts, but it helps me to concentrate­ do just one thing at a time, and do it right."

We think of this each morning as we use our own egg-timer, and try to remember its lesson often throughout the day: one thing at a time, and easy does it!

Yes, we try to remember, but like Ginny with the multi-as­ signments, we often find our­ selves dropping one task, taking up another, going 'back to the first-Ugetting nowhere fast" as the old saying has it.

Continuation of Ginny's gim­ mick, but on a far higher plane, came shortly thereafter as a mes­ sage from a dear friend, a nun, who slipped a little prayer into her letter.

She does not know its origin, nor do we. Perhaps some reader of this column can identify the author so that proper credit may be given to one whose words bring a profound sense of peace to all of us in the tension-filled segment of the Great Society in which we move.

I reprint the prayer here, in gratitude, and with the hope it may help others: Slow Me Down, Lord!

"SLOW ME DOWN, LORD! Ease the pounding of my heart by the quieting of my mind. . "Steady my hurried pace with the vision of the eternal reach of time.

"Give me, amidst the confu­ sion of my day, the calmness at the everlasting hills.

Experiment to End

Ursuline Mother Superior Sets Termination

Date ·For Controversy on Habit

PAOLA (NC)-Th,e controver­ sial experiment whi.ch ehanged the habits of two Ursuline nuns of the Paola motherhouse into a simple jumper and street dress probably will end in June.

Mother Charles McGrath, su­ perior of the motherhouse here in Kansas, said June was the original termination date, but she added: "This is an experi­ ment, and as such, it is liable to stop most any time."

Two Ursulines who teach at Oklahoma City's Bishop Mc­ Guinness High School have been wearing the new garb for six weeks. They have attracted worldwide attention and set off intense discussion within Catho­ lic circles on mode,rnization of religious habits.

At the school where the Sisters teach, another member of the faculty said the change is taken for granted now and no further J'eactions have been noted.

Irs Possible to Have Fig Trees

THE ANCHORThurs., Jan..28, 1965

Despite Masso Winters

Declares Rights Protests Useful

By Joseph and Marilyn Roderick When I was in college I had a biology professor who apent his free time going to jungle movies in the nope of finding some flaw in Hollywood's use of animals and plants. He delighted in telling us about the time he saw a lIlovie in which a monkey Fortunately for me, a teacher's IIlat was native to South day ends fairly early and I am America was climbing a Cal. generally able to don an apron Horna palm in what was by four o'clock, but even then .apposed to be darkest Africa. I ~ sure that if he were to visit Mr. Frank Luiz of Our Lady of Grace parish in Westport he ~ould be surprised to find fig trees growing in Massachusetts.' :Mr. Luiz has had fig trees for more than 20 years. At present he has four trees which bear fruit twice a year, in July and in September. Once, during a par­ ticularly mild Autumn, he had a third crop of figs in November.· Fig trees, of course, are native to warm climates and although they are grown in the United States, are not normally grown this far BOrth.

We had a fig tree in our gar­ den when I was a boy but I have DO idea what became of it. The only thing I remember about it was that it received a great deal of care and attention but never .eemed to produce any figs, which was·my main concern at the time. Mr. Luiz does not have this problem.

The greatest problem in grow­ Ing the trees here is the weather. 'l'hey must be given special treatment in order to protect them from our Winter cold. Mr. Luiz actually buries his trees in the Fall.

When the weather begins to get cold he digs a trench wide and long enough to cont~n the tree and then digs up its roots on one side so he can bend the tree over into the ditch. In this way the tree is still rooted in the ground, since half its roots re­ main undisturbed. He then cov­ ers the tree completely with straw, over w1llch he places tar paper. The whole thing is then covered with garden soil until the danger of frost has passed.

When thp tree is uncovered and righted in the Spring it is firmly rooted and ready for the growing season. Should the tree be uncovered too early there is the danger of losing the first - crop to a killing frost, since buds ere already present while the tree is buried.

Fig trees are handsome and attractive in any garden. They do not flower but the foliage is large and has an exotic appear­ ance which attracts attention.

They have no special soil re­ quirements although they do re­ quire an abnormal amount of water. Mr. Luiz fertilizes his trees with a little 5-10-5 fertil­ izer i n the -Spring, which he finds sufficient to last the Sum­ mer. He has found his trees to be disease-free and only once in ZO years have birds bothered the fruit. All iIi all, fig trees make an excellent addition to our IIOrthern gardens.

In the Kitclieil

When I asked Mr. Luiz why

he went through all the trouble of growing .figs, he said that he enjoyed looking at the trees and eating a fresh fig now and then, which seems reasonable enough to me.

"Cookery is a necessary art and art that is worthy of the at­ tention of the most intelligent and cultivated women of the land." Thus begins the preface of aNew England cook book printed at the tum of the cen­ tury. I'm sure the housewives of today agree with this statement

made during a more leisurely era. However, as one of the mil­ lion or so American women who combine home with career, I find that time stymies much of my creativeness with food.

fatigue overcomes art. Realizing the presence of tiredness on a working day, but not willing to · bury my love of cooking, I am constantly looking for ways to bring good meals to the table. with a minimum of effort when the situation demands it.

One llolution I have found is the use of the freezer. There are many dishes which can be cooked on a weekend when you feel like Fanny Farmer and brought to the table the evening you're rushing from work to home to a P.T.A. meeting, which taste as good as the day they were originally cooked. My freezer is quite small, the top of the refrigerator type, but there is generally room for a frozen casserole or two to see me through a busy week.

The following is a good freezer recipe which was given me by Mrs. Joseph Mello of St. Anthony of Padua parish, Fall River.

Tomato Noodle Casserole 3 Toil 1 lb. ground beef 2 onions sliced' 1 clove garlic minced 1 can tomatoes 1 can toinato paste % cup water or dry red wine Jh t. paprika 1 t. salt 1 bay leaf % t. thyme % t. majoram 1 1. Worcestershire sauce Jh t. tabasco sauce 8 ounces noodles (1) Heat oil in skillet, add beef, onions and garlic until meat is browned.

(2) Add remaining ingredi­ ents and bring to a boil.

(3) Tum half of mixture into a 2% quart casserole (if you plan to freeze this, :Jine casserole with foil, leaving long ends), add uncooked noodles and re­ maining sauce.

(4) Bake in 375 degree oven for 45 minutes.

(5) Before serving, sprinkle with parmesan cheese. .

(6) If this is to be frozen, cool to room temperature, fold ends of foil over food, remove from casserole and' freeze.

(7) To reheat, place in same casserole in a 375 degree oven until warmed through, about 35 minutes.

"It all began before we were married," explained Mrs. Gac. "We had read 'The Ugly Ameri­ can' and we decided we wanted to do something. We concluded that the missions were ideal for us. We could serve God and our country at the same time."

Her husband said they talked the matter over with the New­ man Club chaplain at Rensse­ laer Institute in New York and also investigated various lay mission organizations. Their de­ cision was made in favor of the Lay Mission Helpers after their chaplain referred them to an Albany priest who had been a college classmate of Msgr. An­ thony Brouwers, founder of the Lay Mission Helpers.

They came to Los Angeles and took the year's training here in missiology, theology, ascetics and Scripture.

ST. LOUIS (NC)-A Catholic nun feels civil rights demonstra­ tions are successful in achiev­ ing goals for Negroes and awak­ ening the community to prob­ lems of racial justice.

Sister Catharine Robert Keane of Notre Dame de Namur focused her study on demonstrations in St. Louis from 1960 through 1963.

Noting the time sequence be­ tween the demonstrations and the subsequent social improve­ ments, she believes the demon­ strators accomplished what they set out to do.

"The demonstrations h a v e been an effort to bring about more equitable social relation­ ships between Negroes and whites," she says. "Dissatisfied with the pattern of seg{egation and discrimination being per­ petuated in American life, Ne­ groes have gone into the streets to demand publicly that their rights be respected."

After studying 18 different non-violent demonstrations, Sis­ ter Catharine Robert stated that in the nine cases "positive conse­ quences were generated for St.

Louis Negroes."

"Action protest elicits a re­

sponse from white men more

effectively than does verbal pro­

test," wrote the 27-year-old nun

in her dissertation for a master's degree in sociology from St­ Louis University.

South Africa Sees Rise in Catholics

Papal Permission To Carry Oils On Person

CAPE TOWN (NC) - T h.

Catholic population of the Re­ public of South Africa increased by 131,869 during. 1964, more than double the rise in the pre­ ceding year, to a total at 1,162,489.

The 1965 Catholic Direct0J7. of Southern Africa reported that the total includes 166,667 Whites.

131,215 colored, 854,698 Africans.

8,424 Indians and 1,480 Chinese.

The directory also reported that the Catholic population at all areas under .the -apostoUe. delegation to Southern Africa_ South Africa, Southwest, Africa.

ROME (NC)-Pope Paul has granted permission for all priests of the Rome dio­ cese to carry holy oils either on their persons, in their resi­ d€ n ces or in thek automobiles.

The Pope granted the request in answer to the .petition of Luigi Cardinal Traglia, pro-vicar general of Rome.

Archbishop Ertrico Dante, pre­ fect of the Congregation of Rites, said no decree has been issued But he declared that bishops may apply to the congregation for a similar faculty if they desire it. The reason Cardinal Traglia made his request is the increasing rate of car accidents.

Jesuit ¥/rites Impressive Story of Imprisonment

Gcd Love You

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen, D.D. We may not reveal the name of the country where the fonow­ ing incident took place for the obvious reason that priests are not allowed there. However, three of them entered this country as archeologists. They pitched their tent near a river so that they could fish for food. Their sufferings were Intense, their poverty dire, "to beg they were unable," but to dig they were not ashamed.

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy "Matter-of-fact" is the expression which repeatedly comes to mind as one reads With God in Russia by Father Walter J. Ciszek, S.J. (McGraw-Hill. $5.95). Father Ciszek is the priest who, in 1964, came back to the United States after 23 years in Russian he was transferred to a labor prisons and slave labor camp. For the first year he lived camps. In telling his story, practically as a hermit in a sol­ he has had the assistance of itary cell of the Lubianka; fol­ Father Daniel L. Flaherty, S.J. Much of that story is hair-raising or fantastic, and and all of it is exception­ ally moving. But Father Ciszek's manner of pre­ senting it is laconic, dispas­ sionate, and the very reverse of sensational. The book is all the .. more impres­ sive because of the absence of heroics in a chronicle of rare heroism.

Father Ciszek was born of Polish immigrant. parents in Shenandoah, Pennsylvania in 1904. He describes himself as having been a tough youngster, one whom his father considered bound for a career of delinquen­ ey. When in the eighth grade, he decided he would be a priest, "My father refused to believe it.

Priests, in his eyes, were holy 'men of God; I was anything but that."

Trained in Rome But young Walter went to the seminary at Orchard Lake, Michigan, and there, having made a retreat under a Jesuit, resolved to become a Jesuit. This time his father was not just in­ credulous; he was outraged.

Eventually he was accepted for tbe Society of Jesus, in 1928.

D!lring his novitiate, he heard­ of t::Ie center at Rome which was to prepare seminarians for pos­ sible future priestly work in Russia. He felt strongly that this was to be his vocation, and vol­ unteered.

He got' to Rome in 1934, was trained there, and was ordained in 1937 to say Mass in the Ori­ ental rite. At the time, it was im­ possible for a priest to enter Russia, hence Father Ciszek was assigned to a parish in Albertin, Poland. Then World War II broke out with the Nazi-Soviet attack on Poland in 1939, and the Soviets took over the section in Which Albertin was located.

In 1940, Father Ciszek assumed a different identity and freely offered himself for a work bri­ gade being recruited to go to Russia. His objective was priest­ ly service, which would have to be surreptitiously performed.

After a two-week journey in a packed freight car, he was put at hauling logs, later at driving a truck. The work was arduous, the conditions difficult, but he managed to offer Mass in secret to gi ve solace and instruction to not a few people.

Arrested as Spy After Hitler's attack on Russia, In June 1941, he was arrested as a Nazi spy. During liis first two months he discovered that his real identity was known to the' Russians, and eventually the charge against him was changed to that of being a Vatican spy.

'He vIas . 'fted to Moscow's notorious Lubianka p r i son Where, for months on end, he was exhaustively interrogated by an expert, who finally had him drugged in order to extort from him a false admission of guilt on which a cr sen­ tence could be based. On July 26, 1942 he was told that his sen­ tence was 15 years at hard labor.

Girl to Call Bluff Of Re!uctant Boyfriend

By John J. Kane, Ph. D. "My boyfriend and I are old enough to be married.

We would like to do so within a year but one problem separates us. He is not a Catholic. I will not -give up my religion. He refuses to become a Catholic and will not enter into a mixed marriage be­ courtship. But they cannot face cause he says they don't up to the serious responsibilities work out. He's a wonderful of married life. To turn about an person in every other way. old saying, "they are always the Can you help us?"

This is the old problem. of

-w hat happens when an irre­ sistible for e e meets an im­ movable object.

The basic an­ swer is that it just can't hap­ pen - and in you r case it means that you and he cannot be united in marriage.

But if you dip beneath the su:t"­

face of your letter, some strange

facets appear. You have been

going together for some time. He

must have known for some time

that you are a Catholic. Why

then does he continue to go witi'm

you, since he is opposed to a

mixed religious marriage?

The price he is asking for put­

ting a wedding ring on your

finger is that you leave your

church. This you do nof intend

to do but apparently you haven't

quite convinced him of the final­

ity of your decision. He must

have some secret hope that he

ean melt your resolve.

Girl Unrealistic You will have to,make it even clearer than you have to date that your decision is unalterable and will remain so, even if you two must part. As a matter of fact, as much as it may hurt, you will have to state quite strongly that it is going to be a mixed re­ ligious marriage or no marriage at all with him.

But I think you too have been as unrealistic as he. It is not wise to urge that he become a Catho­ lic only in order to become your husband.

Conversion entails much more than this. He must be firmly convinced of the truth of the faith and wish to embl'ace it for that reason.

Of course, you should pray that God may give him the gift of faith. You can ask that he read Catholic literature, attend services with you and discuss the Cburch with him. But you cannot pressure him into converting, and to attempt such is quite wrong.

His statement that mixed reli­ gious marriages do not work out is not quite true. Some do, and some don't. If he begins with a firm conviction that a mixed marriage will fail, you are both halfway to a failure.

Some Happy, Successful Case histories and statistics show that probabilities of a hap- _ py mixed religious marriage are less than those in which both parties are of the same religious persuasion. But - some mixed marriages are happy and suc­ cessful in almost every sense of these terms.

But at the risk of going out on a limb, I have a feeling that his claim mixed marriages do not work is not his real motive in rejecting them. I wonder if he wishes to marry at all, or wheth­ er he wishes to marry you. The fact you mention you are old enough to marry also prompts this suspicion.

Some men are marriage shy.

They enjoy the pleasure of being with women, of dating, even

best men but never the groom".

Plausible Excuses Almost invariably these men have what appears to be excel­ lent reasons for postponing mar­ riage. Sometimes it is an aged mother for whom they must care, or the need to move ahead on their work before they take the big- step. _ In reality these are merely plausible excuses, not the actual reason. They suffer some kind of psychological bloc against marriage and' it is deep within their personalities, so much so, that even they do not realize it.

I fear you m;1y be associated with just such a person. Even if you agree to abandon your faith -and I trust you never will-I feel certain some new reason for delaying marriage would imme­ diately occur to him.

At the present moment he has what appears to be a serious and sincere reason for not marrying you. It is part of - his defense mechanism against marriage it­ self, not against a mixed reli­ gious marriage. If this defense Were removed. another wou~d soon be erected.

Wasting Time Since you seem to want to get married and since you are, as you put it, "old enough to get married," I suggest you are wasting your time with this man.

You did not say you were en­ gaged, so I guess you aren't. You seem to have what is known as "an understanding". Sometimes these are like 99 year treaties and would last that long 1£ both parties survived. . There is another way to caU his bluff. Suggest that you both begin to go out with other men and women for a while. In your own case, I think this highly de­ sirable. You may meet other men whom you will come to like and one perhaps whom you will come to love. At any rate give yourself the opportunity of having more than one boyfriend who appar­ ently intends to be that peren­ nially.

Different Case If he really cares deeply for you, he will have to come to terms with reality and accept the fact that some mixed mar­ riages do work and you and he intend to see that yours will.

Usually, I too am hesitant about mixed religious marriages, but your ease is somewhat dif­ ferent. At least, you seem com­ mitted to it. If you do enter into one, you do so with your eyes open to the fact that more than the usual adjustments must be made.

But frankly, I rather doubt you and your friend will marry at all. I wouldn't waste too much time waiting for him, or you may be "waiting at the church" the rest of your life.

BISHOP CARBERRY

Columbus Diocese Has New Clrdinary WASHINGTON (NC) - Pope Paul VI has appointed the Most Rev. John J. Carberry as the Bishop of Columbus, Ohio. Until now Bishop Carberry has been Bishop of Lafayette in Indiana.

Bishop Carberry succeeds to a see left vacant by the transfer of Bishop Clarence G. Issenmann to Cleveland, where he will be enthroned Tuesday, Feb. 2 as Coadjutor Bishop and Apostolic Administrator.

Poverty Continued from Page One lighten the burdens on a diocese. a mission, a hospital. Other ap­ peals are made on a _non-reli­ gious, on a non··sectarian line.

In fact, suggestions have come in that all Christians unite in a great campaign, with a view to face the problem of poverty with a solid line.

My feeling is that whatever decisions are mG.de at the top, or whatever recommendations made, the responsibility comes down to us, as individuals, cler­ ical and lay, - as parishes and_ social groups to act conscien­ tiously here and now. When peo­ ple are starved, they can't af­ ford to wait until next year or next month. A good deal of the discontentment in the world stems from the fact that men, women and children have not even a subsistence diet. What brief experience they have in life is plagued by pangs of hunger and the consequent rav­ ages of disease.

So, I am asking you to supply me with the means to answer the urgings of the Holy Father, of my brother-bishops - who write in often to endorse a nec­ essary work done by sisters, brothers and lay apostles in mis­ sion areas. We have been doing well. But far from curing the affliction, we know that it's getting worse.

We must not seek excuses.

These are our brothers, all chil­ dren of the Bame heavenly Father. I must say that I do not expect any oml great act of generosity. We have few in the diocese who could do such a thing. Our histo:rY,-in fact the history of the whole Church, has been a record of what small do­ nations, often the fruit of sacri­ fice, can mount up to when prac­ tically all, or most of our faith­ ful can do their part.

Let us then unite on January 31st to provide a handy means for doing systematically and sympathetically what we would like to be able to do on behalf of those who cannot help them. selves. We may all be sure that the Lord loves the "cheerful", the conscientious giver. And ~at we do for one of these lellSt brethren, we do for Him."

Prelate Pinpoints Growing Role of Catholic Press

President's Education Bill Proposes Good of Child

BY LAWRENCE CARDINAL SHEHAN Archbishop of Baltimore Chairman, NCWC Press Department Since the days when journ~lism itself became a sig­ nificant force in society, Catholic journalism has been a profession of vast potential. As the general role of jou~­ nalism gained influence through the growth of democratIc institutions, the correlative the everyday world accord­ vocation of Catholic journal­ form: ing to the mind of Christ. ism became more necessary Dialogue Promotion for the formation of Christ­ As such an intermediary, the centered faithful and Christ­ minded citizens.

Hence, for all its accuracy, the repeated assertion has long grown threadbare that' "never has tru"e Catholic journalism been more necessary than now."

We are therefore condemned to a cliche when we justifiably make that same assertion in a year when the Second Vatican Council will most likely end and a postconciliar age will begin.

Once again, history proves that nothing is so true as a truism.

History-both past and ex­ ceedingly recent--likewise sug­ gests that within the' Chu_rch a lengthy period of growing pains is in the offing. During this pe­ riod, Catholic journalism will be uniquely challenged and must be adequately equipped "to dis­ turb the comfortable and to com­ fort the disturbed."

Reflect Public Opinion The council's master docu­ ment, On the Church, insists that the laity should openly reveal their needs and desires to their pastors. This they should do "with that freedom and confi­ dence befitting children of God and brothers in Christ."

Further, "the laity are, by means of the knowledge, compe­ tence, or outstanding ability which they may enjoy, permit­ ted and sometimes even obliged to express their opinion on those things which concern the good of the Church."

The Council document directs that such opinions should be ex­ pressed "thrpugh agencies set up by the Church for this purpose."

One such agency already exists in the pages of the Catholic press, where news stories, col­ umns of opinion, editorials, and letters to the editor can in a practical way both generate and reflect that public opinion ­ which, as recent popes have re­ minded us-operates as a need­ ful part of the Church's life.

Pub I i C opinIOn, however, should be in con tin u 0 u s conversation with the authentic teachers of the living Church.

Here the Catholic press is called :Ipon to function as an interme­ diary, between the divinely ap­ pointed teachers within the Church and the whole people of God who are summoned to trans-

"Every condemnation breaks unity," he declared, cautioning against reviving the mistakes of the past and indulging in mutual recriminations. He said the ecu­ menical Christian strives to .be "a man who brings unity and not division" and does not insist that his way is the only way to unity.

"What does unity mean if it is only unity itl one direction, our own direction, even if it is a good one?" he asked.
