The Anchor is the heart of ChrisHan adult 'education in the Diocese of Fall River. ,_ ' THe Anchor has been the gTeatest innova. }ion during the reign of Most Rev. James L. ~nnolly, Bishop of Fall River, in reaching all ,the faithful simultaneously. And it aids them to live mature Catholic lives in a complex and Changing world. : The Anchor has served to 'tie-in' the entire «JJooese from· Provincetown to Mansfield in the _ght years it has been in circulation.

It is the most ardent wish of Bish9P Con­ ~ny that this newspaper be delivered to every

:fanu1y in every parish in the diocese. The Anchor has shown a steady and consistent growth since it started publication on April 11, 1957. But, there is still room for improvement, circulation-wise, in a number of paris-has.

The Anchor, in each and every year, has achieved more quotas parishes. This class today represents a substantial block of the 110 par­ ishes which form this Southeastern Massachu­ setts diocese.

Several parishes today are within a rela­ tively few subscriptions of accomplishing com­ plete family coverage. It is noteworthy, too, that several smaller parishes are selling more weekly copies of The Anchor than a few of the large parishes.

The Anchor has attempted to present a well-balanced. and newsy journal that is enjoyed

by every member of every family. We naturany offer Catholic news and varying views on a multiplicity of subjects where Oatholics are en- . titled to differing opinions, except for matters of faith and morals. We offer special features for women and a sports page for the young.

Humbly, we say our editorials are the envy of many of our other Catholic papers and mag­ azines.

The Catholic press is not a luxury but a necessity, Pope Paul has declared.. His prede­ cessors, too, have sought to persuade Cardinals, Bishops, priests and the laity of the import of Catholic journalism. (See editori'al on Page Six).

Bishop Connolly hopes that The Anchor this year will,achieve its greatest circulation, a copy every week in every home in every parish itl the diocese.

Ordinary Dress A prioress of Olivetan Bene­ dictine nuns said her community wears ordinary dress in public on the European continent, where "people stare at the big habit, and young people have no respect for nuns." ' She said further: "But' the whole attitude of English people is different. They are more 'dis­ creet. Nobody botherS ilbout what anyone else is' 'wearing.

yeW Movement Assists Mi,llion Young Workers By ~fsgr. George G. Higgins Canon Joseph Cardijn's elevation to the College of Cardinals, which was unexpectedly announced by Pope Paul VI Monday, Jan. 25, was a richly deserved tribute to a great pioneer in the social apostolate of the Church and to the worldwide movement things which stand in the way . which he established a gen­ of their living this new life. eration ago - the Young Established by Canon Cardijn Christian Workers (JOC). in Belgium in 1912, the Young What is this movement which has merited such a welcome tribute fro m His Holiness? ·T heY 0 u n g Christian'Work­ ers is a move­ ment . of the Church which r e c r u i t sand trains you n g working men and women. Its aim is to educate young workers so as to enable them 'to re-Christianize their lives and surroundings.

The YCW is a school of life.

Through the inquiry method, the genius of the movement, young workers discover the problems of their work life, of their neigh­ horhood and iamily, and of their leisure life.

Last and most importaI}t, a concrete action is taken to bring their life close to the ideal of Christ and His Church. This is -:the school through which have passed thousands of young workers the world over.

Christian Lines By meeting weekly with other young workers the Young Christian Workers develop char­ acter. The YCW shows its mem­ bers how unChristian their en­ vironment is in many respects.

Realizing gradually that they themselves are affected by it, young workers are stimulated to think and act personally on Christian lines. It is a school which combines knowledge, spir­ itual formation, and action.

The spirit of service shows itself on the most simple occa­ sions of the daily life of the Young Christian Worker. The kinds of service are as numerous as the many needs created by the various circumstances of everyday life, i. e., making friends with new workers, visit­ ing a sick friend, helping a young worker to ge.t a job, pass­ ing out leaflets in a union cam­ paign, 'and the like.

All service in the YCW must rest entirely on the Christian conception of love of others.

This is the soul of the movement.

In Daily Life Through the actions and ser­ vices of its members the Young Christian Workers Movement is constantly in touch with the young worker's daily life in factories and offices, home and leisure; ip. short, with the needs and desires of working youth.

The YCW is a permanent re­ sponse to the problems of all young workers. The Church gives us the doctrine of Christ and communicates His life to us.

Christian Workers was officially recognized as a national organ­ ization in Belgi.um in 1925 by the Church. Today the movement exists in 40-odd countries and is in the process of formation in 25 others. Over one million ~'oung vvorkers throughout the world make up its membership.

Produces Vocations Today the YCW has taken its place as a small but important youth movement in the United States. It has trained worker leaders who have set their shoulders to the wheel in eco­ nomic and political life. It has produced many vocations to the priesthood and religious life and hundreds of Catholic marriages.

Much has been tione. But the task has just begun. God willing, the elevation of Canon Cardijn to the College of Cardinals in the evening of his inspiring life will serve as a stimulus to the movement not only in the United States but in every other part of the world as well.

South A merlca · Continued from Page Ten through combating such prob­ lems as poverty, illiteracy, reli­ gious ignorance and communism, a consensus seemed to emerge from the discussions that the Church has started to come to grips with the realities of the situation and will continue to gather strength in the struggle of the Latin American peoples to overcome their crippling problems.

Assessing the help which has already come from North Amer­ ica and the role the Church in Latin America must play in helping its people, Bishop Mar­ cos G. McGrath, C,S.C., of San­ tiago de Veraguas, Panama,.said in a private interview the in­ creased impact of the Church in Latin American life "is enough reason for optimism."

Give Impetus The material and spiritual aid which has begun to flow into Latin America is of great impor­ tance bee a use "cooperation brings forth cooperation." He expressed the hope that before long the programs of education and material aid would give Latin Americans the impetus they need to help themselves.

Defining what he believes should be the role of the Church, he said much of the material· help needed is really the func­ tion of the civil governments, "but it has to be done by some­ one, and sometimes the Church is the only one willing or able to do the job." But the real place of the Church, he believes, is as a teacher and former of attitudes.

Report Questions Divisive School Assertion CHICAGO (NC) - The National Opinion Research Center said here it found an "overwhelming lack of evi­ dence" to support the theory that Catholic schools are divisive.

In a report in the February­ March issue of the Critic maga­ zine, three officials of the Uni­ versity of Chicago's center cited • survey made on the effects of Catholic education.

Persons who went to Catholic scbools, they said, ''were just as likely to have Protestant friends in adulthood. to be involved in civic activities,. to· respect civil liberties, to be open-minded, to be tolerant of others, and to be, If anything, more upwardly mo­ bile."

Authors of the report are Dr. Peter Rossi, head of the research eenter; Father Andrew Greeley, director of the study, and Leon­ ard J. Pinto, assoc~ate director.

They concluded: "Even though the measures ased in this study are not as so­ phisticated as might be desired, the overwhelming lack of evi­ dence for the 'divisiveness' the­ ory at least calls it into serious question.

"Indeed, the general similar­ ity of Protestants and Catholics and of the various Catholic sub­ groups suggests that the atti­ tudes we attempted to measure are formed by general cultural forces rather than the kind of school attended and that the di­ visiveness that exists springs rather from the influence of re­ ligion itself than from religious education."

THE ANCHOR­ Brother Michael Misses Warmth of Africa Thurs., Feb. 4, 1965 5 .Church Council As He Shivers in New England Winter

Brother Michael has been a missionary in various parts of Africa for the past 11 years. His present assignment is at St. Mary's Secondary School in Mwanza, Tanzania. Tanzania, he explainer, is the former Tangan­ yika, renamed Tanzania a matter of weeks ago when Tanganyika and the island of Zanaibar formed an alliance.

There are 283 boarders, boys of 16 to 24, at St. Mary's School, said Brother Michael. Classes are in English, but the government requires all teachers to learn Swahili and gives them about two years to do so. Brother Michael hasn't as yet fulfilled this requirement, since other languages were spoken in the parts of Africa where he was previously stationed, but it's high on his list of priority things to do.

New School Year The teacher will be a little late for school, said Brother, noting that the new school year began in Tanzania on Tuesday, Jan. 19. Why Tuesday? Well, the steamer that plies Lake Victoria, on whose shores Mwanza is lo­ cated, arrives on Tuesday, bring­ ing most of St. Mary's students with it.

Tb.ree and a half week vaca­ tions come every three months for students, said Brother Mi­ chael and. there are six free weeks in December, when the school year ends.

tatives, a World Council official said here.

The Rev. Dr. Franklin Clark Fry, president of the Lutheran Church .in America and chair­ man of the World Council's 100­ member central committee, said procedures for the talks were outlined at a meeting of the committee in Enugu, Nigeria.

Dr. Fry spoke at a news con­ ference after returning from 10 days at the Nigeria meeting.

He predicted that talks be­ tween Catholic and World Coun­ cil representatives would begin in a few months. He called such talks ''the next logical step" in improving relations between Roman Catholics and· other Christians.

Step While the talks would be a "momentous step," Dr. Fry said, nevertheless they would be "a step, not a leap."

He said the initial discussions would concern matters that are "not too complicated" and ap­ pear ''1ikeiy to produce" progress in interreligious cooperation.

The World Council of Churches includes 214 Protestants, Ortho­ dox, Anglican and Old Catholic denominations with some 350 million members throughout the world.

taken care of. "It's quite an ef­ ficient system," he noted. A sports period follows.

Brother Michael teaches biol­ ogy, math and sociology at St. Mary's. He says his students are highly motivated. "Few boys can go to school, so those who can, want to stay and they study hard. They know their futures' depend upon it... Most St. Mary's graduates go into government or business, and Brother Michael noted that Julius Nyerere, Tan­ zania's president, is himself a graduate of a Catholic school.

"He is a good Catholic," he said.

Native Vocations The Brothers of Christian In­ struction operate a J;lostulate and juniorate in connection with St. Mary's. Some 40 boys are en­ rolled in the two institutions and will go to Uganda for their no­ vitiate.

The area around Mwanza is hilly and rocky and vegetation is sparse, said Brother Michael.

Nearby are gold and diamond mines, "but security is very up to date. We ca~t take field trips to the mines!"

A native of Notre Dame par­ ish, Brother Michael has a broth­ er and sister still residing in the parish, in addition to his par­ ents. He attended Prevost High School, leaving in his senior year to enter the brotherhood and complete his education at the community's school in Alfred, Me. He has been a religious since 1947.

Brother Michael expects to visit Fall River again in three years, under a government pol­ icy which prescribes that all foreign teachers take home leave for six months every three years.

BROTHER MICHAEL

very few educated youngsters become teachers.

"The good students get better­ paying jobs and it's the less able ones who turn to teaching. Thus teachers are mediocre and it's hard for students to advance."

The school day at St. Mary's begins at 8:30, running until 12:45 and then from 2:30 to 4, with time out for a midday siesta. Students then have a

lVlission for Journalists

Necessary Instrument

"The Catholic newspaper is not a superficial luxuty or an optional devotion, it is an instrument necessary for the circulation of those ideas which feed our faith."

These words of Pope Paul, spoken less than a year ago, need no additional commentary to explain his view of the Catholic press and the importance that a Catholic news­ paper plays and should play in the life of the Catholic.

In the mind of th~ Pope, the Catholic newspaper is necessary.

The faith of the individual Catholic and the events of the life that he daily lives are inextricably interwinetl.

The faith must influence and give meaning to daily life; and the events of the day must be viewed in the light of God and their impact for eternal life. Where is the Catholic to receive information that will guide him in making these judgements and applications?

This is the function of the Catholic newspaper­ again, in Pope Paul's words-to present a fund of thought aligned along Christian principles. Thlt Catholic news­ paper, the Pope points out, must not only inform but form the reader. And it must let the reader see in how many areas there is unity of belief among Catholics and with their non-Catholic friends, and in how many areas there is complete freedom, within the bounds of charity, for discussion and disagreement.

During February, Catholic Press Month, the Pope's insistence on the Catholic newspaper as necessary should find response in the minds and lives of every Catholic family.

This. means that Catholic reading material 'must be in' every home. A Catholic weekly newspaper, magazines, books and pamphlets-these are instruments of Catho­ lic thought, aids to the Catholic in his evaluation of the events in which he participates, and these enable him to continue his education and to mature in the faith that is his.

Responsible Press The announcement by the Holy Father of his creation of new Cardinals was given excellent coverage in the daily press and many of the outstanding newspapers of the country saw fit to make it the subject of editorials.

This in itself 3hould be proof, if proof is needed, that the daily press is willing and anxious to cooperate with the Church and with every other responsible group in the featuring of newsworthy releases. It shows that there is concern in the higher e-chelons of newspaper administration over what the Church does and its influence in and on the world.

Occasionally the cry is heard from some Catholics that this or that newspaper is prejudiced against the Church.

This is the ghetto-voice crying out, the self-styled second­ class citizen speaking, the inferiority complex-ridden Cath­ olic making protest serve instead of presentation and pro­ motion. This attitude, happily, is all but gone, but it is still discouraging to see and hear it on occasion. ' When a newspaper presents a view that is deemed hostile to the Church the explanation is that the editor sincerely thought this to be a newsworthy item, or else he was met with so many "no comments" from Catholic officials or was given such a run-around in his efforts to seek the other viewpoint that he met his deadline with what he had at hand.

The press in the United States is a responsible one.

Exceptions to this are so few as to be easily and quickly recognizable. Catholics would do well to take an active role in applauding and assisting the press in its presentation of news and viewpoints, instead.... of carping and sniping from the sidelines.

OATHoL/a PRESS MONTH

'ThnolA.CJh the Week With the Chu.nch

By REV. ROBERT W. HOVDA, Catholic University TODAY-St. Andrew Corsini.

Bishop. What have we sinners done, that God should trust us so? Yet he assures us again and again in scripture, as He does in the lessons of this Mass, that He not only loves us but entrusts to us the salvation of our world.

Sirach's tribute to the "great' priest" and the Go.spel parable of the industrious and reliable slaves-both come to the Chris­ tian people, to t14e assembled church, as messages of trust and confidence· * * * and hope, God's hope, if we may so speak.

TOMORROW - St. Agatha, Virgin, Martyr. "Those who have made themselves thus for the sake of the kingdom of heaven" (Gospel) are the Religious among us, whose vows of re­ nouncement establish a way of life that points to heaven.

Whatever they do,. whatever concrete form their mission takes, this is their common ser­ vice to the whole Church - to remind us all that the worid moves toward a goal beyond it­ self, not only in words but in the daily fabric of their lives.

SATURDAY-St. Titus. Bish­ op. The bishop, of course. but also every Christian must be a person who knows where he ,is going (Gospel). Jesus is teach­ ing here a simple directness in accomplishing the mission He entrusts to us. Success is not the measure, but the will, the intent. the steadfastness and' purpose­ fulness. To say, "The kingdom of God has approached you," is not to brag nor to herald triumph.

It is only to announce the fact that one is here, is present, who is animated by faith and is therefore a vessel of the Holy Spirit.

FIFTH SUNDA~ AFTER EPIPHANY. "You must bear with one another's faults" (first reading) "or perhaps while you are gathering the tares you will root up the wheat with them" (Gospel).

with the constant reform and re­ newal that life demands.

Yet our aims must be reason­ able and we must be strength­ ened against the vain hope that because the structures and pat­ terns of our Church life are im­ proved we shall be perfect. First and last we deal in the Church with humans, and with those faults the readings speak of. Our reform is successful if those structures and patterns begin again to beckon and challenge and inspire us where we are and as we are.

MONDAY-St. John of Matha.

Confessor. Hymning the praises of the "good man," the man who confesses his' faith in the Father by dealing with every person as his brother, the entrance psalm begins: "Be not envious of the wicked, nor jealous of evil­ doers." ' Sometimes we pretend that a real envy, a true jealousy, is purely a desire to see (and help) virtue triumph. But the saints, too, like the man we honor to­ day, are fields in which tares are present. They differ from us perhaps only in that they do not covet them, nor envy the tares in other lives.

TUESDAY-St. Cyril of Alex­ andria. Doctor. "Do not think that I have come to set aside the law and the prophets; I have not come to set them aside, but to bring them to perfection" (Gospel). (I hope the new and improved text of' scripture readings at Mass is soon avail­ able in books smaller than the altar missal!) , Christ announces that· the job of His teacher, of the man or woman who teaches in His name, is not to set aside "the law and the prophets," nor is'ii to repeat them. It is to "bring them to perfection." So the Christian teacher must heed the Spirit here and now as well as in tradition. ' WEDNESDAY - St. Scholas­ tica. Virgin. The maiden's love of and openness to her groom, with all her hope of fulfillment and completion, is the model of the Church's stance toward Christ. Even 'as the Church, the community of salvation, we are not a "finished product."

We are always reformable, al­ ways perfectible, always pil­ grims on the march. It is this virgin spirit, submissive to the L()td, that,enables, the Church to welCome such a period as thV time of change and progress.

Modern Society The Stuttgart meeting will be held under the direction of Rai­ mondo Manzini, editor of the Vatican City newspaper L'Os­ servatore, Romano and president of the IUCP, and Father Emile Gabel, A.A., secretary general.

Meetings at the world congress will be organized around the overall theme of "Truth in the Pursuit of Liberty" and will In­ elude a number of special ses­ sions relating the theme to mod­ em society.

There Will be conferences on the press and political liberty; liberty and international order; liberty and eivil rights; con:' science and religious liberty; freedom and the creative arts; and liberty in the Catholic press.

The theme of this year's Cath­ olic Press Month gives everyone -readers and writers-reason to consider the task of the Catholic press. They are the words of Pope Paul VI: Your Catholic press * * * mirror of the world • • * telling things as they are ••• In truth.

To mirror the world is not the simple task it first appears. For one thing, a mirror can be im-

its reflection. A mirror can be too small to tell the full story.

A mirror can be faithful to the surface·of things and miss what lies behind the obvious facade.

A mirror that tells all things as they are must be a mirror that seldom limits its area of reflec­ tion. And the press that attempts to be such a mirror must concern itself not only with the obvious ecclesiastical aspects of the

life, every slightest concern of morality.

Christian Principles

A mirror that tells things as they really are must reflect not only the object in question but the surrounding world that af­ fects what must be told. The publication that mirrors the fam­ ily, the factory, the field, and the forum must include the Chris­ tian principles needed for a

question itself.

Anything else is not "things as they are" or things "in truth."

Anything else is not the Catholic press that the popes have ad­ vised to place itself in the world and interpret that world for readers in the light of Christian principles.

Catholic readers should be happy to have at hand a press that dedicates itself to so impor­ tant a task.

"Just the opposite," our priest friend chuckled. "They're not ashamed of the Catholic press any more. In the line-up, among the popular publiclltions on those living room tables-and usually on top of the heap--are well­ thumbed copies of Commonweal, America, The Sign and others.

Even the Diocesan paper is out in full view, right beside to­ night's edition of the city news­ paper."

This priest's observation Is D~ .. all unusual.

The Catholic press has made giant strides within the past few years, strides which should be noted during this, the month of February, "Catholic Pre s • Month." Why February? We don't know Perhaps, from the very name of the month, d.erived from Februarius, month of ex­ piation and purification, since en the 15th. the Roman festival of expiation and purifi~ation was beld. ' To our way of thinking, this iii appropriate, since we believe that the Catholie press should take its place as a gOOd influ­ ence in the. current· world of journalism. To quote the present Pontiff, Pope Paul VI, "Your CatholiC Press is a mirror of to­ day's world, telling things ­ they are-in truth."

And how is the Catholie pre. doing? Better, thank you.

Deny Dispatch About Ca rd ina I

Prelate Stresses Ecumenism on Spiritual Level MADEIRA (NC) - Aux­ iliary Bishop Paul F. Lei­ bold of Cincinnati called for a "spiritual ecumenism" ­ prayer and holiness - as the "soul of the ecumenical move­ ment."

He preached at a special low Mass which he offered at St. ·Gertrude's church here in Ohio for some 300 Protestants, many escorted by Catholic neighbors.

Many Protestant visitors were guests in homes of Catholic pa­ rishioners after the evening Mass, which was (lffered at an altar facing the congregation.

Bishop Leibold cited five ways in which those' "who profess Christ" can work for Christian unity: 1. "We must make every effort to avoid. expressions, judgments, , and action~hich do not repre­ sent the condition of our sepa­ rated brethren with truth and faimess * * *" 2. "DIalogue" must be carried. on "between. competent experts . from different ,churches and communities."

3. Cooperation among' differ­ ent 'churches "for the' common good of humanity." , 4; A "spiritual ecumenism,· which he said involves "a change of heart, holiness of life, and public and private prayer for unity * * *" 5. "All must examine their own faithfulness to God's will for the Church, and accordingly undertake with vigor the task of renewal arid reform * * *"

Scores FCC Stand

On Religious Test

WASHINGTON (N C) - A ·member of the Feder'al Commu­ nications Commission charged here that the FCC is violating constitutional limits marked out by the Supreme Court by mak­ . ing religious' broadcasting. one test of a broadcaster's public, service performance.

Commissioner Lee Loevinger, addressing the National Reli­ gious Broadcasters convention, said the FCC "has gone far be­ yond the limits that have been marked by the Supreme Court as permissible goverti.ment ac­ tion in the field of religion."

Loevinger noted that the FCC 'includes religious pro g ram I among the types of programs considered to be in the public interest on its license application forms. He said it made the broadcasting of such programs one of the FCC's tests for deter­ mining whether a broadcaster operates in the public interest.

LOS ANGELES (NC) - The universal effects of the Second Vatican Council will not be rec­ ognized completely for years to come, James Francis Cardinal McIntyre told 2,200 Holy Name men here in California.

These effects have penetrated deeply into the spiritual life of all people, not only of the Church alone, he told a Holy Name Union Communion break­ 'fast.

Beggars for All the Missions

Humphrey,.· Becker Write 'Novels of Reminiscence

God Love You

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen, D.O. rn the mail last week a package arrived containing several hundred printed and self-addressed envelopes from various beg­ ging organizations in the United States. The good woman who sent the package admitted being neither rich nor comfortable and yet she was flooded with appeals. She wanted to know how she became a victim of this deluge. The answer is that she is on a mailing list.

There are hundreds of mailing lists for sale in the United States.

These can be bought for various amounts depending on the number and quality of the names listed. The good woman who wrote us was on at least one of these lists.

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy Both William Humphrey's The Ordways (Knopf. $5.95) and Stephen Becker's A Covenant with Death (Ath­ eneum. $4.50) are novels of reminiscence. Both are laid in the Southwest, the former in Texas, the latter in an un­ identified state. The narra­ ing is still to come: the account tor in the Ordway book is, of their six months' journey, in for the most part, telling a wagon drawn by oxen, from what happened to his great­ Tennessee to Texas, in the hope grandparents and his grandpar­ ents in the Civil War period and at the tum of the century. In the Becker book, the narrator is, in his seventies, r:ecalling Ii decisive expe­ rience in his oWn life when he was 29, back in 1923. If there are similarities between the works, there are also differences, and they are very great.

Mr. Becker's novel is a Book.;. of-the-Month Club ·selection, has already been bought by a movie company for a vast sum, and un­ doubtedly will be a roaring pop­ ular success. Mr. Humphrey's novel will probably have far fewer readers and will bring its author far less money. But it is by all odds, and in every re­ IJPect; the better book.'

Long-Winded It has one fault: that of being long-winded and, at times, meandering. "I just wanted to hear the same old things over and over again," the narrator -of The Qrdways. says at one point.

It is evidently presumed that the reader has the same desire. and that he will not object to lengthy digressions. But repetition and extended parenthetical exercises do become tiring, even if, as in ~,is instance, the writing is of a high order.

'1$ The Ordways really a novel in ' 'the', Strict sense? The pook cOri.tillns' a notice reading, "A' portion of Part One, 'in some-' what different form, first ap­ peared. in The Saturday Evening Post."

It ,is quite true that the first seetion could stand alone, that the second and third sections could form a story by them­ selves, and that only the fourth section depends for intelligibility on what has gone before. None­ theless, there is unity here, if not the tight construction of the most effective novel.

Family Lore Mr. Ordway begins by describ­ ing' graveyard working days in the hamlet of Mabry, near the town of Clarksville, in eastern Texas. On that day, occurring once a year, the descendants or suniivors of those burled in the Mabry cemetery come together to set the place to rights. ·As they do so they rec~ the histories of the dead, and thus the family lore is passed on from generation to generation. But it is more than family lore which is conveyed: the country's past is reconstructed, and the making of the present.

The narrator, a boy in the 1930's,' learns of two decisive episodes in his own family. One has to do with Thomas and Ella Ordway, ,who were Tennessee people until 1863. Thomas was an infantryman, was horribly wounded and disabled in the bat­ tle of Shiloh, and would have died or at least have been lost to his famIly, had it not been for his wife's valor. The narrative of her recovering him ann bring­ ing him back to a ~blance of life is harrowing, Journey to Texas But somethin& .more harrow­

of beginning a new and better life. The reader not only follows this arduous exodus, but makes and suffers it, and is haunted by it thereafter.

This portion of the book is a storY complete in itself, dramat­ ic, pathetic, comic, packed with lively incidents and colorful characters; some h'eroic, some corrupt, some rascally, all dis­ tinctive and engaging.

Occasionally, the side excur­ sions pall a bit, as in the depic­ tion of stump speaking by polit­ ical candidates or of life with a small, shabby traveling circus.

Yet each of these sideshows has something to contribute to the pictUre of emerging Texas.

Acute Observations Mr. Humphrey writes extreme­ ly well, a little less fancily as the book progresses, but always viv­ idly and with plenty· of power for the high moments. His peo­ ple are nicely differentiated and come memorably to life. He has many acute observations, and even authentic wisdom, to dis­ pense, and this he does neatly.

His book rings with truth about human, nature, and is the work of a highly gifted and skillful artist.

Mr. Beeker's A Covenant with Death, on the other hand strikes me as contrJved, empty, and often obnoxious,· Its ,nub is a legal stickler: What is to be dQne with a man who is convicted of m~rger, bought, +c the gallows, there G ki1ls~e hangman, and then is cleareu of the first kill­ ing!' ". " ' , . , ~is poser is· put to, the 29­ year~old, judge, ,Ben Lewis. He solyes Wby niakiIig law, and when confronted with this puz­ zler, solves as well a key prob­ len't' in 'his personal life. At one and the same time, he becomes, at last, a real judge and a real man.

Precise 3udgment Or so we are asked to believe.

Lewis says of himself, "I passed the crisis of adolescence at the ludicrous age of 29 • • • I was swollen with garbage and bitter­ ness * '" '" My own ego was mon­ strous, mainly because I had never done anything for anyone and could justify my own use­ lessness only by assuming that the world was not worth my' energies." This is a precise judgment. ' The trouble is that the book is swollen with "garbage. and bittern.ess," as well as sophistry. ",Young Lewis' conversations with his mother, for example. They irk by their pretentiousness, and they disgust with their obsceni­ ties. The young· judge is thor­ oughly sophomQric, and we are asked to credit his, sudden leap into maturity. We are asked too much.

It is with ill grace that the author scorns small town folk for their prurience. It is just this to which most of his book ap­ peals. When he sneers that "Soledad City, our wholesome middle-class American town, would be lined up three deep for good seats" at a murder trial with sensational sexual aspects, he apparently forgets that the predictably huge sales of his novel will be, in large part, to people attracted by itligamineaa.

Never before has it been brought home to us with Such impact, how swamped our faithful are with appeals! It grieves DB that we, too. are beggars, but we find some consolation in the fact that the Holy Father's Society for the Propagation of the Faith has never .used such mailing lists.

This incident highlights· an urgent need

that the Vatican Council must recognize: that

of co-ordinating appeals for all these really

worthwhile causes, especially those of mis­

sionaries. Pius XI said that the method by

which each missionary group solicited only

for itself did not provide an even distribution

of help. Some can barely survive; others have

investments in Wall Street. How to know

who, out of the hundreds who beg, are most

deservng, is not only difficult but almost

impossible. '

We have never liked begging. In fact, there is too much in­ sistence on money in the Church tOday. We w,ould like to be unshackled from our tin cup and not' add to this confusion. But this is our, duty. Why! 1. Because the Holy Father has asked us to be his beggars in the United States for -all the missions of tlie world. 2. Becanse, it is the glory' of The Society for the .

Propagation of the Faith not to helf) on.e order or society of th'e world, but the entire world; (As a' matter of fact, 88· per cent of the appeals in the above-mentioned package received soDie aid from The Society. for the Propagation of the Faith.) 3. Because. being under the direction of the Holy Father, The Society for the Propagation of the Faith 'does not invest any of yoUr· alms.

Every eent Is distributed by the Holy Father each year. The world Is too poor. So fOl'dve us!

Oh yes, 'the lady who sent us the package wrote: "I could not keep 240 missionary appeals, because I have not the money. Since The -Society for the Propagation of the Faith aids all, I send the Holy Father my $100 to be divi4ed as he sees fit."

Pope Emphasizes . Import of Hymns j

Stresses 'ilroad, beep Gulf Between Two Generafions

VATICAN CITY (NC)-Pope Paul, in an audience for more !han 1,000 priests. participating in a convention on pastoral lit­ urgy, emphasized' the key role of hymn-singing in the liturgy.

"We are not in a hurry" he said. ' "We must raise up a new peo­ ple who learn to pray as the Church now prescribes.

"One of the prescriptions which I believe to be most influ­ ential and most necessary is singing."

The Pope said that hymns in­ cluding popular ones, lift' the soul and nourish it with religious sentiments.

Says Pope John Left Cha lIenge To .Catholics· NORTH PALM BEACH Pope John XXIII left Catholics with a chal­ lenge "to meet the world," (.NC) -

-

Bishop Coleman F. Carroll of Miami said here.

Bishop Carroll said Pope John "dared" Catholics to "meet other Christians and non-Christians and to discuss our common problems and seek, by discussion a solution to these problems." ''This challenge cannot be met by the pope alone or by the bishops and priests alone," he said. "It must be met by all, in­ cluding-indeed especially-the laymen."

He said laymen must be prop­ erly prepared for this task through study, training and spir­ itual preparation. In this con­ nection he called a closed spir­ itual retreat "an absolute 'must;' for the lay person."

Bishop Carroll spoke to mem­ bers of the Our Lady of Florida Retreat League at a dinner in his honor at the Passionist Retreat House here.

Pre"l"Wtes Sc~~dlJ(e US~ ~f Ve?C""".r:ulall' ROME (NC)-The Italian lan­ guage will be used in Mass throughout I t a I y beginning March 7, the first Sunday of Lent.

The Italian Bishops' Commit­ tee on the Liturgy, in announc­ ing the change, specified that the Italian language would be used in Masses on Sundays and holy days and at all Masses attended by a substantial number of the faithful.

The parts of the Mass to be said in Italian are the following: the Epistle, Gospel, acclamations, salutations and dialogues (in­ cluding the prayers at the foot of the altar and the dialogue pre­ ceding the Preface), the Kyrie, Gloria, Creed, Sanctus-Benedic­ tus and Agnus Dei, the· Pater· Noster with its introduction, and the formula for the Communion

Sisters of Mercy General Asks Personal Responsibility

ST. LOUIS (NC)-We've got

to develop the Sister in depth.

That's what the times call for," said the mother general of the 7,300 American nuns of the Sis­ ters of Mercy of the Union.

Mother Mary Regina Cunning­ ham, ending her first six-year term as the head of the widely known teaching, social work, and hospital nuns, was talking about what the Sisters of Mercy are doing to bring themselves fully up to the times.

In St. Louis, Mo., to meet with the superiors of the nine Mercy provinces, Mother Regina talked about the main vehicle she and her colleagues hope will achieve the transformation.

This is the year in the commu-' nity for chapter meetings and general meetings of the nuns in

each of the provinces, climaxed by a meeting of the general chapter. at the order's mother­ houpse in Bethesda, Md., she said.

Changing Church Results will be ~ol:nown in Au­ gust and Mother Regina hopes that they will show her commu­ nity to be in line with the mind of a rapidly changing Church in the midst of an even faster mov­ ing world.

She predicted t::lat the chap­ ters would have some surprises, not only in the de:isions, but in the way they are organized to give a more representative view of all the Sisters in the order.

If one overall phrase had to sum up what Mother Regina and the other planners are looking for in the Mere" chapters,. it

would be "personal responsibil­ ity," she said.

"A Sister has to have the re­ sponsibility to make judgments for herself," said the mother general. "Her superiors have to give her the responsibility to achieve her own role. She has to make the decision, to take the risks. ~'And then of course be ready to pay the price for her deci­ sion," said Mother Regina.

of always being safe. Some peo­ ple want to be sure, to have the answer before they move. But sometimes that meant they never moved at all," she observed.

Developing a Sister in depth will mean a lot of things, espe­ cially an updated sense of her apostolate and the way she works at it. For the Mercy nuns in the U. S., Central and Latin America, and in the West Indies, it will mean a lot of littie things, Mother Regina hinted.

Changes might relax regula­ tions about home visits, dining with others, attending night meetings and cultural affairs, or traveling with companions.

Mother Regina said that "we have to plan for more contact wi,th the laity, and for more edu­ cation to understand each other.­

Stresses Doctrines Substance Remains DAVENPORT (NC) -Bishop Ralph L. Hayes of Davenport ad­ monished an interfaith meeting here in Iowa against expecting changes in Catholic doctrine.

"The (Second Vatican) Coun­ cil may change the manner of presentation of doctrines, but not their substance," he said, pointing to the liturgy .as an ex­ ample of such a change.

"We must admit bigotry and misunderstanding on both sides.

But followers of Christ have Scripture, devotion to the Holy Spirit and devotion to Christ in common. Why not talk about the things on which we agree!" he asked.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., Feb. 4, 1965

Protestant Minister Lists Areas of Difference WASHINGTON (NC)-A Protestant minister told a national meeting of Catholic priests here "cold water" was thrown on ecumenical progress by Pope Paul's closing state­ ment at the third session of the Vatican counci,l th~t Mary, the Mother of God, was Queen of the Catholic but is "to be found in great fer­ Church. The Rev. Dr. David ment."

As a result of the Vatican G. Colwell, pastor of the council, Dr. Colwell said, the

-

Fir s t Congregational United Church of Christ here, told a twO-day "Seminar on Ecumen­ ism" at St. Paul's College the differences between Christians over the Catholic teaching on Mary are "the toughest obstacle facing those of 1,lS committed to Christian unity."

Dr. Colwell said the marriage laws of the Catholic Church and the Catholic position on the pri­ macy of the Holy See constitute two other major areas of "seri­ ous differenc~ between Protes­ tants and Catholics in this ecu­ menical era."

Discoveries Among chief discoveries Prot­ estants are making today about Catholics, Dr. Colwell noted, are that the spirit of religious reform is "strongest in the Roman Cath­ olic Church today, and that the Roman Church is not a monolith,

laity of all churches have be­ come deeply involved in the life of the Church and they evidence a ''hunger and a thirst to come together as Christians." He cited the "racial revolution" in the U.S. as a key vehicle for reli­ gious groups of various denomi­ nations to work together on a common social problem.

Overcome Fear Auxiliary Bishop Stephen A. Leven of San Antonio, Tex., urged Catholics to overcome their old-fashioned fear of Prot­ estants and to set about in search of "the elements Catholic and Protestants have in common."

Bishop Leven recommended that Catholic clergymen listen patiently to the beliefs and opin­ ions of Protestants and "proceed to study together the teachings of Jesus Christ."

Negro Missionary Pri'est Says Discrimination Hurts All Society NEWARK (NC)-It happened In Indiana. The priest, a Negro, had just finished saying Mass when a man came up to him and thanked him for being there.

The man confessed he had been away from the Church for many years. He felt the need of a sign that the Church "was Christian as well as Catholic."

To him, the presence of a Negro priest on the altar was such a sign.

That's'one reason Father DonaId G. Potts, O.S.C., says "I am a Negro and wouldn't have my color any other way." Father Potts sees himself as a potential instrument for God's use.

A native of Newark and a convert, Father Potts is a member of the Crosier Fathers. Ordained in 1960, he teaches English and Latin at Our Lady of the Lake Seminary in Syracuse, Ind. In an interview during a visit home, he admitted he gets the uncomfortable feeling of being "a display piece" when he is in'troduced as "a Negro priest." He

wants people to understand that "it's not sensational that God should give vocations to Negroes, Orientals or Indians, because, as St. Paul said, with God there isn't any distinction."

Real Discrimination For himself, Father Potts said he has never met any problems or discrimination as a priest, "even in towns considered segre­ gated." But he does not soft­ pedal the reality of discrimina­ tion.

"Some religious orders won't accept us," he noted. And "many Negroes," he said, "will not em­ Drace the Church" because of practices found in the South: making Negroes wait until last to receive Communion, refusal to accept Negroes as altar boys, boycotts of Masses celebrated by Negro priests, the refusal of some to confess to a Negro priest.

Otherwise, he said, "the Negro eould be very receptive to Cath­ olicism. The Church is the last place where you would expect to find such incidents."

California's Flood-Ravaged Areas Grateful for 'Nationwide Support -SANTA ROSA (NC) - Callfomia's flood-ravaged Humboldt and Del Norte countries are struggling to get back on their feet through their own efforts and the help of people throughout the country.

Man y contributions have reached the area in response to appeals by Bishop Leo T. Maher of Santa Rosa. .

Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York sent a check for $5,000 to aid flood victims.

Archbishop Joseph T. McGucken gave $35,000 representIng . offerings from Catholics of the Archdiocese of San Francis­ co.

Parishes in the Diocese of Oakland also took up a collection and Bishop Floyd Begin mailed $20,000.

Flight to Council NEW YORK {NC)-A Cath­ elic press charter flight to Rome for the opening of the final ses­ .ion of the Second Vatican Coun­ eil is being organized by the Catholic Presa Association here.

Acknowledging the support, Bishop Maher said: "All of us are indebted to the splendid gen­ erosity of Cardinal Spellman, Archbishop McGucken and Bish­ op Begin. In these dark days of widespread suffering, our. lagging spirits have been bolstered by these wonderful acts of Christian charity.

"Our people are still in desperate need of almost all life's necessities but the best help given us has been the knowledge that our good friends have not forgotten us."

Governor Supports School Bus Plan DES MOINES (NC) - Go•• Harold Hughes of Iowa in his inauguration address called for enactment of state legislation to provide tax-paid bus rides to· nonpublic school students.

Calling education one of the state's main responsibilities, Hughes also urged approval of a state-financed collele llC1> o1 oe. ship program.
