By Women Still Mass Custom VATICAN CITY (NC) - Fr. Annibale Bugnini, secretary of the new Congregation for Divine Worship, has flatly denied reports that the new regulations for Mass have repealed the ageold custom requiring women towear some head-covering in church.

"The custom goes back to St. Paul," the liturgical expert said.

"Of course there is nothing in the new regulations about women covering their heads at Mass, but there never was.

"And there is certainly nothing in the new regulations to repeal the eustom."

The 'misunderstanding arose when the new and definitive Roman Mass - plus regulations for its celebration - was explained to the press. A reporter asked if women are required to Turn to Page Six

'Are the Saints Still Saints?' , The Vatican has been surprised to find itself the target of all kinds of "infantile fantasies, doubtful humor and headlines about 'the purge of the saints'" after its decree on the reformation of the liturgical calendar.

The world press has given full coverage to all types of sentimental and incredible misunderstanding, doubtful attempts at humor.

REV. RONALD A. TOSTI

Vatican Reaction

The Doubtful

The Vatican does 'not create, elevate, promote or downgrade saints. Its process of canonization is simply meant to bring before the eyes of the faithful a sure way of themselves becoming saints by imitating the courageous and sincere living of the faith as was done by the saints.

The Vatican Council,' some five years ago, demanded that the present liturgical calendar which at the same time celebrates a year-long series of feasts of Our Lord Turn to Page Thr~e

"It is true that in the course of time the multiplication of feasts, vigils and octaves, as well as the pompressive complication of different parts of the liturgical year; have often driven the faithful to particular devotions, in such a way that their minds have been somewhat diverted from the fundamental mysteries of our redeemption," wrote Pope Paul in his latest decree on the new liturgical calendar.

The reason for the new calendar is to Turn to Page Eighteen

Vatican Reaction Continued from Page One and also a year-long series of feasts of saints had to be clarified. More emphasis just had to be given to the feasts of Our Lord and the mysteries of our salvation.

In the process of changing the calendar the guiding principle was more emphasis to the feasts of Our Lord and our salvation.

When it came to the saints, it was recognized that many saints -though unquestionably saintly -were of little importance to the w.orld at large. Also, there had to be made place for other saints who, because of their impact on the modern world or particular places, had to receive greater attlo1ntion today.

Therefore, only t.hose who had "universal significance" would occupy important places in the year's liturgical calendar. Others would be feasted by those locale in which they were important, e.g., St. Louis de France for France, St. Januarius for Naples.

Place would therefore be made in the calendar for the preparation for the greater feasts of· Our Lord and for the celebration of newer saints: St. Thomas More, England; Holy Martyrsof Nagasaki, Japan.

Pope Paul gave view to the thoughts of many of the Fathers at the council when he wrote in his decree: "It is true that in the course of time the multiplication of feasts, vigils and octaves, as welI as the progressive complication of different parts of the liturgical year, have often driven the faithful to particular devotions, in such a way that their minds have been somewhat diverted from the fundamental mysteries of our redeemption. " "No saint has been abolished" the Vatican has emphasised. A saint is produced by the grace of God and the cooperation of man. There are, please God, many more saints in heaven than the small list of canonized exemplars which history has granted us. Nov. 1st will therefore take on even greater significance now for that will be the day "All Saints" at which the smallest locale will. present for universal celebration its greatest hero' of Christian life and example.

We will have then, -the Pope explains, "a new universal calendar, prepared for the Latin Rite, more in harmony with the piety and the needs of our times. We think that it better reflects the universality of the Church, in the sense that it proposes the names of the most important saints who represent to all the People of God a shining example of holiness in a variety of ways."

in October when the Synod of Bishops meets in Rome. So will the other Canadian delegates.

The Synod, by definition, an "extraordinary synod" called by Pope Paul, comprised of the presidents of national conferences of bishops, Eastern Rite metropolitans, heads of curial congregations, and others invited by the 'Pope himself.

Collegiality, with undertones of a crisis of authority, is the single topic on the agenda of the Synod.

The Canadian bishops went on record with a resolution urging "the greatest possible openness" towards mass media by the offices of the Synod and the publicity offices of the Vatican "both before and during" the Synod sessions.

As collegiality develops-and many bishops think it has been developing too slowly - the trend toward decentralization increases.

"The trend in that direction," Cardinal-designate George B. Flahiff, C.S.B., of Winnipeg told a press conference. It is chiefly' a question of proper coordination and proper timing. Ever since the council, more and more has been left (to national conferences of bishops), but in order not to leave awkward gaps a thing like the Synod is necessary to work out these relationships.

Is decentralization a threat to Papal Authority? Bishop Carter answered, "There is a lack of understanding on the part of some as to what collegiality is.

If there was some kind of division between the bishops and the Pope there would be great cause for concern. But it is not that at all.

"It is a different concept of how you work out the problems in the Church. There shouldn't be and won't be reason for concern when people understand that better," he continued.

"We are going through a change of expression. All change frightens people, we have to expect that. But as they understand what this means then their fright disappears and they become reassured," the bishop said.

"This is part of the pain of growing up. If in adolescence we didn't go through that painful period we wouldn't become men.

I think that this is what is going on in the Church," Bishop Carter said.

The Synod will treat collegiality in four sectors: 1) The relationship between the Pope and the Bishops; 2) The relationship between

bishops; 4) The bishops' relationship to one 'another in terms of authority, freedom, responsibility and how the overall function maintains unity.

Criticizes Progress Of Pover.ty War WASHINGTON (NC) - Statements arid actions of the Nixon Administration in the war against poverty were 'Cited as being contradictory, with the action pictured as an improper approach to the problems described by the statements.

Msgr. Lawrence J. Corcoran, secretary of the National Conferences of Catholic Charities, testifying before the House Committee on Education and Labor, said his organization welcomed President Nixon's statement that "no domestic issue facing this administration is more important than the anomalous problem of poverty in an affluent society."

Msgr. Corcoran also said he was pleased with a statement

by Donald Rumsfeld, new director of the Office of Economic Opportunity, who said "we must make progress" in the effort to end poverty.

"In the face of these statements, however," Msgr. Corcoran said, "we were astonished to read that the President has reduced the budget for the Office of Economic Opportunity, directed the closing of 59 Job Corps Centers, and cut backs on other budgeted items designed to assist the poor. This hardly represents the proper approach to the most important issue facing us today."

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs. May 22, 1969

§c!kOJOJ! Cooperation The public school system and the Catholic school system are not hostile to each other. Each fulfills the public pu'rpose of educating students. The Catholic school system adds to this a religious dimension which Catholics believe is vital and valuable.

Now there is grave concern over the possibility tHat more classrooms in Catholic schools must be phased out unless some form of -government aid is forthcoming to' keep the Catholic schools system functioning efficiently.

At the same time, officials of both school systems are discussing matters together in an, atmosphere of common concern. Because Catholics, are not and cannot be unconcerned about the public school system which they also help to underwrite.

They have made classroom space available to public school systems. They have tried to give as much advance warning as possible if a school or some classrooms must be phased out. They are quite willing 'to sit down at any time and discuss what is the primary concern-the good , of the student~. .

Diocesan superintendent' of school Rev. Patrick J. O'Neill is in the process of arranging for the Diocesan Board Of Education and officials of the school system of the city of Fall River, elected and appointed, to confer ' " together.

Such a spirit of cooperation and common concern is a guarantee that the welfare of students ,will be paramount in the minds of all. '

Year-End Rush When the late Cardinal O'Hara of Philadelphia was President of the University of Notre Dame he said at his' first- faculty meeting: "You teachers get your'reward from your brilliant stud'ents, you earn your salaries with your average students, and you save your souls with your poor students."

And perhaps many a teacher everywhere echoes the Cardinal'srerriark at this stage - of the school year. ' , The school ye_ar-end rush is on with .stuQents. straining at the bit to get out into vacation or work and with teachers trying' to tie up all the many threads of the year's efforts, with all the strain and terisions' that all these activities generate.

Both public and parochial school system teachers are a source of pride to the community which sees the dedication that' so many of th~se persons have as they take their work as a'vocation and its performance a matter of pride and conscience.

Witness The death of Cardinal Beran, in exile from his native Czechoslovakia, puts a quiet period to a life of living martyrdom. it. man who for years endured jail and humiliation 'and suffering, he emerged from his captive's hands and became a Cardinal of the Church and the princeliness' of the position never showed as clearly as in his gentleness and lack of bitterness over the unjust' sufferings that he long endured.

Only love of God ~ould explain his reactions ,which were, in a human sense, almost unbelievable. He was truly a witnesS to Christ, a witness to the passion of the.

Lord, a witness who bore in his very person the marks of suffering and anguish. And he bore in his spirit the mark of Christ, too - of forgiveness and charity and love for all men and especially for those who had made him suffer. .

It is such witness 'that stands' out for all the world and for all the Church to see and to note well. And, indeed to emulate.

Prelate Defends Church Authority HOUSTON (NC)-Archbishop Robert E. Lucey of San Antonio, in an address here, coupled a defense of ecclesiastical authority with a criticism of those who attack it.

The archbishop praised particularly Pope Paul VI for issuing his encyclical Humanae Vitae, dealing with birth control, asserting that the Pontiff not only "defended the authority of the Church but he has defended also human life."

Archbishop Lucey said Pope Paul has been explicit in his defense of the concept of ecclesiastical authority. Criticizing priests and laymen who oppose the authority, Archbishop Lur.ey said: "In our tillie, there are several insanities prowling among some clergymen and laymen in our Church. One of these, a particular malevolent insanity, makes the Church a feeble democracy which isn't a religion at all, and makes a bishop so humble a creature, his divine power becomes a mockery. Thus the Church is no longer a supernatural body endowed with authority from God." "This teaching has created havoc among men of little faith.

In my opinion, men who lack faith, ,,:,het~er clerical or lay, are a mlnonty, but what a noisy and offensive minority they are," he said.

How much longer can those in the aseptic suburbs turn their backs on the dirt and the grime of our cities where rat-bitten babies and cockroach infested apartments are the setting of human beings' lives?" he asked. .

"How much longer can we continue to say that, of course, we would feed a starving child, but then close our eyes to the starving child who is right nearby, not just one, but millions of ' them.

"How much longer? I believe the time is very short and that the crisis of conscience is almost at hand. By that I mean that the time is fast approaching when affluent America will be forced to decide on a basic change one way or the other in the present situation," he asserted.

Bishop Gerety feels frustration has already led to some incidents of violence in sheer rage at broken promises and shattered dreams and that to continue meeting demands for justice by repression is the "open and frank repudiation of our claimed principles."

West German Nuns Decrease Foreseen

Catholic Association For Peace Disbands WASHINGTON (NC) - After 41 years of work, the Catholic Association for International Peace (CAIP) has ceased operations: .

Dr. William V. O'Brien, president, acknowledged that the CAIP'-s usefulness had diminished with the establishment a year ago by the U. S. Catholic bishops of the Division for World Justice and Peace of the U. S. Catholic Conference of which Msgr. Marvin Bordelon is director.

With episcopal approval, the CAIP came into being in 1926 under the aegis of the Social' Action Department, National Catholic Welfare Conferenceforerunner of the Division for Urban Life, Social Development Department, USCC. .

BONN (NC)-The number of Catholic nuns in West Germany will decrease by 10,000 in the next 10 years, Auxiliary Bishop Eduard Schick of Fulda predicted here.

The bishop said convents are closing every week because of the sharp drop in vocations. He said the problem resulting from the decreasing number of nuns working in social service institutions like hospitals cannot be solved by hiring lay personnel.

The.re are at present 87,000 nuns In West Germany.

exclaimed.

The Maine Ordinary said today's youth are "true believers in the American dream" and are the ones who today take the nation's ideals seriously. "That is the cause, the basic cause, of a great deal of student unrest today," he opined. "They take their elders at their word," Arouse Conscience "Youth today sees the starving child in the ghetto, he sees the 'dirt and grime and the degradation of our cities and he is demanding that we live up to what we profess," he emphasized.

Bishop Gerety believes the fundamental job of the Urban Task Force is to get the country I to examine its conscience and to resolve the present day crisis by living up to its ideals.

"We must arouse the conscience of our people; we must turn them from repression by tanks and guns and subtle unspoken betrayals," he declared.

Hierarchy Opposes Puerto Rican Bills SAN JUAN (NC) - Two bipartisan measures favoring birth control, introduced in the Puerto Rico Legislature here, have been described by Puerto Rican Catholic Bishops as "an attempt to sneak massive neo-Malthusian legislation past the people of this island," Speaking on behalf of the Puerto Rican hierarchy, Archbishop Luis Aponte Martinez of San Juan assailed the legislation proposed by former Gov. Luis Munoz Marin, Senate President Rafael Hernandez Colon and other legislators of the Popular and New Progressive parties.

"Both of these measures speak of 'family welfare,' but their authors do not explain what family welfare means, whether it is material, physical or spiritual," the archbishop stated.

"We strongly suspect ,that this is an attempt to sneak massive neo-Malthusian legislation past the people of this island," he added.

Ba'ckyard :Conigliaro Rout~d By rhre~ Y·ear-Old Pitcher

By Joseph and Marilyn RQderick

As I write this article I am sitting in an awkward position trying to find a comfortable resting place for my right leg. Said leg has a torn m~scle in the calf .and a badly wrenched ankle. The doctor, who treated me In t~e out-patient ,department of the hospital feels that I will cook books that I wish to send ' for. The fascination of reprobably walk normally in away ceiving a new cookbook to rea week if I keep exercising view hasn't worn off yet, and I the leg and' attempt to carry on my usual activities.

In the past two ,weeks my wife and children and 1 have driven to Washington, exposing ourselves to the danger of freeway traffic. Eyeryone today is justly concerned about such driving and I certainly felt the strain of driving in heavy traffic with my family, but I returned from that venture unscathed.

Last week I flew to Kansas City, Missouri to attend the International Reading Association convention and although we had a few tremulous moments of turbulence of the plane, I returned safely.

Backyard Conigliaro My troubles began when I decided to become the Tony Conigliaro of the back yard set.

While in Kansas City I bought Jason a baseball bat and two wiffle balls, which were delivered yesterday. Now, everyone ,. knows that a small boy's greatest hero is his father, so this hero demonstrated his virility by hitting innumerable home runs over the garden.

With the bases loaded and a three and two count on the ·batter, the three year-old pitcherthrew a fast ball at which the thirty-eight year-old batter took a vicious swing, lost his balance and found himself sitting on the ground with the aforesaid torn muscle and wrenched ankle.

Needless to say, I received my share of ribbing last night. None of the hospital personnel could pass up the oportunity to make some little joke as I was wheeled around the hospital. My wife was duly sympathetic behind her "I told you so," and Meryl has been walking around with a sheepish grin on her (ace since last night. My mother-in-law's first comment this morning was, . "I guess that ends your baseball career." ' We are made of better stuff, though. If Tony Conigliaro can bounce back, I am sure I can, although I may temporarily change positions with Jason. In the 'immediate future I will throw the blazing fast balls and he will hit the mighty home runs.

In the Kitchen At this moment I have on my' desk five or so notices of new

Archbi~hop 'Forbids

Drums in: Church BL.ANTYRE (NC)-The use of drums in church has been forbid: den by Archbishop James Ciona of Blantyre, Malawi, in a pastoral letter.

He has also forbidden outbursts of shouting at Mass.

"Our people are born musicians. They naturally like singing. We encourage community singing and common responses at Mass," the archbishop said in his pastoral,' But, he added, "If the sound of the drum is not conducive to their piety and devotion, we cannot impose it on them because it is not necessary for their salvation."

CINCINNATI (NC)-The president of Xavier University here. said courses in military science taught in college today do not teach violence, but rather the "control of violence, the. restraint of force."

A course in military science,' he said, "shows the relationship between the Civilian and the military authority in our democratic government, and ~he. responsibilities of citi~enshIP. I~ a nation dedicated to Its Christian origins, to the dignity of the individuals."

Father Paul R. O'Connor, S.J." spoke at the annual revie~ of the university's Reserve OffIcer Training Corps, at which awards were presented to 51 ROTC cadets. Some 1,100 cadets comprise Xavier's ROTC. "Today," Father O'Connor said, "ROTC studies in our colleges are under attack. Some of these attackers claim that military science should not be ~n­ c1uded in the liberal arts curnculum on the basis that it is not humanistic.

"But they assign to that word . 'humanistic' very narrow limits," he continued. "Back in history the first humanists were those who found excitement in the study of man and all of his aspects, his capacity for love and violence, his desire to rule and his willingness to serve, his passion to know.

"None of them loved war," Father O'Connor said, "but all of them knew man well enough to realize that the freedom that they enjoyed to pursue their work was dependent upon their ability to defend their right to do so."

Here's Practically Painless Way to Lose Weight

Question Religion Text Orthodoxy

By Marilyn Roderick She stood in front of the group-a tall brownhaired girl with the carriage of a model, a radiant smile and an eye-catching figure. I could hardly believe my hearing when she very proudly announced that she had lost 106 pounds in the past 34 weeks and she still had 15 more to keep resting and leaning on shopping cart to make it pounds to go before she my through the store. Now I look reached her goal. Her name forward to grocery shopping, is Carol Ann Phenix and she is a member of St. George's parish in Westport. The proud mother of three little ones Carol attributed her present happiness with her new slender self and her air of s~lf-confidence,

to Weight Watchers of So mer set and its lecturer, Mrs. Minnie Somers.

"I had always had a tendency to be chubby," explained this sparkling young mother, "but after the children were born I really blossomed. When I bought a dress it wasn't which dre~s would I like, but which dress would fit me."

Those days have passed for Carol, who had chosen a slender pink sleeveless sheath for this party (a celebration of her hundred pound loss) at Weight Watchers. And as I looked at her proud husband and family as they watched her receive her achievement pin and the congratulations of her friends, I realized that this girl had truly emerged into a new world of admiration when she stepped out from her barrier of fat. "~hy, even the children call me Skinny," laughed Carol. And her eyes showed that these were beautiful words indeed.

Sad Story Mrs. Olivia Cruz of Santo Christo Parish in Fall River is another Weight Watchers' success story. Mrs. Cruz's doctor suggested that she try this group as a last resort in her battle to lose weight-a battle that had gone on as long as she could remember.

Again, it seemed utterly impossible that this pretty, middleaged woman with her chic size 12 figure could even be remotely related to the obese figure that Olivia showed me in her "before" picture. Hers was a much sadder story than Carol's because as long as she can remember she has been "fat."

"When I used to go out with my father, people thought I was his wife, all that weight made me look so old. It was an effort to go out at all and when I went to the super market I had

Association Appoints Assistant Directors ST. LOUIS (NC)-Thomas E. Callahan and Edward J. Spillane will take office July 1 as assistant directors of the Catholic Hospital Association.

Father Thomas J. Casey, S.J., CHA executive director, said Callahan, now executive director of the Rochester (N. Y.) Regional Health and Hospital Council, Inc., ,will administer the central office divisions of association services and publications, while Spillane, who has served in official posts at CHA headquarters here since 1964, will administer the central office divisions of health facility services and internal operations.

even though I'm still watching what I eat."

Olivia is on what the people at Weight Watchers call a maintenance . program. Menus relax a bit and members return to the group meetings once a month free of charge.

What is this marvelous group that can work such miracles in '. the lives of overweight people, regardless of age or sex (many members of Weight Watchers are men). Basically, it's an educational program designed to teach the overweight person to eat sensibly; but it's really more than that - it's group therapy with the heart.

The successful diet used is from the New York Board of Health Obesity Clinic and on it one will find a wide var!ety of tasty and nutritious foods. All WW's declare that the beauty of this diet is that they are never hungry. , Empathy Abounds And heart is what everyone connected with this organization has a great deal of, from Jean Nidetch, WW's founder and director, to the Rhode Island and Eastern Mass. director, Elaine Robin, and Mrs. Somers, the lecturer at the Somerset class I visited. Each one of these people and every single lecturer employed by Mrs. Nidetch has been a weight loser herself, so empathy abounds in the classes and the lecturer's enthusiasm can't help but carryover to the students.

To say I was terribly impressed with this organization would be an understatement.

Any group that could bring such happiness as I witnessed on the faces of Carol and Olivia has to be thought of as the answer to . the prayers of all those overweight people who have spent their lives in embarrassment and frustration.

Finally, here is something that really works, without pills, gimmicks, or fad diets that leave the dieter hungry and tired. The women I interviewed had the look of sparkling health, radiant skin and youthful pep that are generally not thought of as the effects of strenuous dieting. Perfect here is the Weight Watcher's slogan-"To lose 'is to win."

Government Defends Cathedral Stamp LONDON (NC) - Postmaster General John Stonehouse has told critics of the new British postage stamp portraying Liverpool's modern Catholic cathedral that he is certain it will in no way compromise Queen Elizabeth's Protestant faith.

The United Protestant Council had written to him complaining that the description on the stamp of "Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral" was erroneous and protesting that the appearance of the Queen's head on the stamp gave offense to Protestant opinion.

Stonehouse replied that the stamp, one of a series showing British cathedrals being issued next month, was chosen primarily for its architectural merit.

MEXICAN MOTHER OF YEAR: Mrs. Dolores Venegas, shown with her husband, Miguel, is los Angeles' Mexican Mother of the Year. Mr. and Mrs. Venegas reared 10 children, put them all through Catholic schools. They came to the U.S. in 1927 as refugees from religious persecution in Mexico under the Calles government. NC Photo.

PHILADELPHIA (NC):""-Some 500 persons crowded into St. Martin of Tours school hall here and heard Mrs. Theresa Ickinger of Parents for Orthodoxy in Parochial Education (POPE) present criticism of textbooks currently being used in elementary and secondary religion courses.

During her speech, which was interrupted several times by shouts from individuals in the audience, Mrs. Ickinger asserted there was material of questionable orthodoxy in several texts currently in use in the Philadelphia archdiocese.

On the question of Christ's awareness of His divinity and messianic mission, Mrs. Ickinger said: "A position condemned since the Council of Ephesus is almost universally taught in the high schools of the archdiocese."

Citing materials from several publishers, she said the "Growth in Christ" series published by Sadlier included a sentence, "Christ's prayer was no different from ours, a search for the meaning of life."

Commenting on the' textbook controversy discussed at meetings of-the archdiocesan clergy, Msgr. Edward T. Hughes, archdiocesan superintendent of shools, said: ' "The educational soundness (of the textbooks) has be~n well established. Their doctrinal orthodoxy has been attested by the 'imprimatur' given by three of the American cardinals and by their general use in more than 130 American dioceses."

Carmelite Third Order Has' New Name, Becomes Self-Governing CHICAGO (NC)-Members of the Lay Carmelite Order have decided to run their organization themselves, but they will retain Carmelite priests for spiritual advice.

This was one of several changes made by the lay order at its 18th National Conference of Lay Carmelites, and Scapular Confraternity here.

The group also confirmed retaining its new name-Lay Carmelite Order - which has been used experimentally during the past year. The organization formerly was known as the Carmelite Third Order.

"We felt this term was too old and that it projected an image other than what we are trying to project in the modern world," " Father Howard Rafferty, O.Carm., National director of the Lay Carmelites, said. He ,said he believes this change, along with others, will help to attract more yoiJths into the organization.

Incoming Lay Carmelites will now be called new members instead of novices, according to another change approved at the conference.

The lay order did retain, at members' individual choice, the taking of vows instead of promises of obedience and chastity. Members also are encouraged to take up the spirit

of poverty, but no vows are used in this area.

Father Rafferty said emphasis was put on the retaining of the scapular in the order.

Father Eamon Carroll, O.Carm., head of the Mariology department at the Catholic University of America in Washington, D. C., addressed the conference on this subject, adding that Mary, the mother of God, is not being de-emphasized by the Church, but only by some individuals in the Church.

"Mary is the image of everything the Church will one day be," Father Rafferty said. The scapular, he emphasized is the symbol. of dedication to this iedal.

Lay Teachers Stage Second Walkout JERSEY CITY (NC) - Lay teachers at St. Mary's Grammar School here staged a walkout for the second time this Spring.

The teachers called the walkout to emphasize their complaints about disciplinary conditions in the school and to protest a delay in the school's hiring plans for next year.

The walkout by the teachers followed a one-day student strike on behalf of student rights.

Father John F. Mee, administrator of the parish, said that more administrative personnel would be provided next year to cope with some of the school's problems. '

Father Thomas Plavilayil writes 'that his people, mostly peasants, have "neither church, nor chapel, nor land, and are desperately in need of a place to worship." "They are becoming disheartened as the years pass and still cannot afford to construct a church themselves," he adds. You can build this church all by yourself for as little as $2,990.

Deplores Impugning Dutch Motives, Church Loyalty

By Msgr. GeorgeG. Higgins Director, ][)ivision of Urban Life, U.S.C.C.

Cemetery Officials State Some Policy Thoughts

One of Italy's leading newspapers-La Stampa of Turin-recently featured a signed article entitled "Is a Schism Possible?" The article was occasioned by Pope Paul VI's Holy Thursday homily on dissension in the Church. The author of the In any event, the Dutch Catharticle, A.C. Jemolo, ,took olics whom I was privileged to note of the fact that the meet on their home ground a Holy Father, at one point in few weeks ago - theologians,

Memorial Day focuses attention on cemeteries and '\the reverent and respectful provisions made for the deceased. In a recent meeting of the directors of the major Catholic cemeteries of the Diocese, it was thought that perhaps a restatement of by relatives, are left unattended. cemetery policies would be While in justice such areas arc of value. It must be remem- not the responsibility of ceme路 officials and could be simbered that the 'Catholic buri- tery ply ignored, such an approach

that widely quoted homily, had used the word "schismatic" to chara'cterize some of the more worrisome developments in the life of the Church today.

"Did the Pontiff," Mr. Jem010 asked, "intend to suggest that schism in technical theological sense of the term is a real the present time?"

He replied in the negative to his own question, but hastened to add, unfortunately, that one might be inclined to think that the Pope was in fact raising the spectre of a genuine schism if he was referring to the Church in Holland.

This gratuitous insult to the Dutch Church serves to illustrate a complaint registered by ,Bishop Hubert Ernst of Breda, The Netherlands, in a new book on the Church in Holland, the French version of which, by coincidence, appeared in the Roman book stores just a few days after the Jemolo article was published in La Stampa.

Incomplete Information Bishop Ernst complains that "when one speaks with foreigners or with Dutchmen living outside their own country - and this applies equally to laymen, priests and bishops-one finds that their information on what is happening in this country (The Netherlands) is far from being complete or just.

"People very frequently have a fantastic idea of what is happening here and therefore come to false conclusions. Most of the time their information is erroneous, exaggerated or too fragmentary.

"In general, the facts reported can be verified, but they are given an exaggerated significance and are taken out of context."

During the course of a recent visit to Holland, I heard a number of other Catholic leaders voice the same complaint. In my opinion, the complaint is well founded. I have the impression in other words, that the situa: tio~ in Holland is being widely caricatured on the basis of inaccurate or distorted information.

To be sure, there is a great deal of ferment in Holland at the present time, but I doubt that the situation there is any more critical' than it is in a number of other countries including the United States.

Frank Discussion The big difference-as Dutch Catholics are quick to point out to visitors-is that the discussion of controversial issues in The Netherlands is utterly frank and completely out in the open, whereas in other countries there is more of a tendency to cover up or soft-pedal differences of opinion or even to pretend they don't exist.

,

parish priests, seminarians and journalists-unanimously scoffed at rumors being circulated by outside opservers to the effect that the Church in Holland is in danger of going into schism.

The fact that they were able to talk about this rather touchy issue so calmly and without a trace of bitterness-and this in the face of a plethora of -ilrticles like that of Jemolo in La Stampa-would seem to suggest that their reputation for having steady nerves and a remarkably good sense of humor is well founded.

Open Dialogue The Dutch preference for free and open discussion of even the most controversial issues is shared by the bishops of Holland' as well as by theologians, parish priests, and the laity. The bishops are in in constant and very open dialogue with the rest of the Church in The Netherlands.

As Bishop Ernst remarks, with justifiable pride and satisfaction, this continuing and completely frank exchange of views between the hierarchy and the faithful is- "the most distinctive trait" of Dutch Catholicism.

The Bishop is not exaggerating in the least. All of the priests' and lay people whom I had the pleasure of meeting in Holland went out of their way to pay tribute to the hierarchy for their willingness to keep the dialogue going - even when the sailing gets a little rough.

I might add, on the other side of the coin, that I didn't hear a single word of criticism of the bishops during the course of my stay in Holland.

Lag in Social ActiOli Surefy, in this respect, then, Holland is away ahead of the game and has something to teach the rest of us. In certain other respects, however I have the impression that the Dutch Catholics are lagging behind a bit. In the field of social action, for example, they do not seem to be doing as much as might be expected of them. .

I hazard this opinion very tentatively, not on my own authority, but on that of Bishop Ernst and some of the other contributors to a symposium I had the pleasure of attending in The Netherlands.

The moderators of the symposium asked the Bishop if he agreed with those foreign critics who say that the Dutch Catholics are too preoccupied with internal ecclesiastical matters and are not paying enough attention to the social and political problems of their own country.

World Justice The Bishop replied with a qualified "yes." While he was reluctant to generalize about the involvement or lack of involvement of Dutch Catholics in the field of socIal reform, he concluded, in the end, that "social engagement must be considered an underdeveloped area in the internal life of the Dutch Church." . One reason for this, I suppose, IS that, by comparison with their

Vo'te for Change In ROTC Status WASHINGTON (NC)-Undergraduate students at Georgetown University here voted for changes in the status of 'the school's Reserve Officers Training Corps program.

Of the 2,239 undergraduates who voted, 87 per cent wanted ROTC either changed to a pass- fail alternative, aoolished or stripped of academic credit but allowed to stay on campus. 'Only 56 per cent of 3,977 eligible undergraduates voted in the referendum.

Most of those voting, 1,217 or 54 per cent, chose to maintain ROTC on campus, but strip it of academic credit. Only 20 per cent (431) wanted it abolished outright. fellow-religionists in the United States, for example, Dutch Cath~lics are not faced with many hfe-or-death social problems within their own country.

There is no racial problem, for example, in Holland and very little evidence of the kind of stark poverty with which we are so familiar in our own country.

On the other hand, as one of the contributors to the abovementioned symposium points out rather critically - perhaps too critically-the Dutch Catholics like their counterparts in other countries, have yet to face up realistfcally to all of the social implications of their Faith in the area of world justice and peace.

Be that as it may, the Church in The Netherlands is very much alive and can be expected- to meet its responsibilities as well as the Church in the United States, for example, can possibly hope to meet its own.

The Dutch Catholics are confronted with all sorts of problems-but so are we, of course, and so are the Catholics of every other country in the world.

It ill behooves any of us, then, to b!! casting stones at the Dutch or to be impugning their motives or their religious loyalty, a la the Jemolo article in La Stampa.

They have made mistakes, of course; so have we. Let's hope that all of us, then, working and praying together in the same Church, can help one anotherand learn from one another-as we try to adjust, in the spirit of the ~ouncil, to the rapidly changmg world in which we are now next-door neighbors.

al ritual is one complete ceremony - prayers at the funeral home, Requiem services in Church, and burial prayers in the cemetery. No portion of the service is to be omitted.

Furthermore, since the time of the apostles the Church has established and maintained her own cemeteries which she considers as "God's Acre." Through the centuries she has insisted that the bodies of the baptized, which have also been sealed with the sacrament of Confirmation and have been the living tabernacles of the Blessed Sacrament, should be honored and respec~ed in death as they await the day of their resurrection, and so burial should be in church cemeteries.

This basic attitude of the Church has not been changed by the ecumenical decree allowing the burial of Catholic in other than Church cemeteries "for reason of family ties." This decree shows the concern of the Church for those who have a loved one buried in some other cemetery and whose deep and legitimate sentiment moves them to wish to be buried in the same lot or cemetery.

But when no such family ties exist, that is, when no member of a family is already buried in a cemetery other than Catholic, burial is to take place in a Catholic cemetery.

For reasons of family ties non-Catholics may be buried in Catholic cemeteries.

Plan Before While the thought of death is an uneasy one, Catholics should see it as a time of victory as well as sadness. It is the part of prudence to make provisions for a burial place for oneself and one's family before the actual time of bereavement. The transaction is not clouded by sorrow and confusion. The thought must also be kept in mind that delay usually also means an increased financial burden since cemetery costs, even more than costs in other areas, are rising too.

Costs While it is difficult to speak of money in relation to cemeteries, it is a fact that cemeteries must be cared for and expanded and this means' labor machines and supplies. ' Some lots and graves, purchased before the endowment or perpetual care plan went into effect, and formerly cared for

would be contrary to the sacred character and dignity of Catholic cemeteries. Further, owners of lots and graves in good order would rightfully disapprove of such a policy. So the expense of caring for these lots must come from gel1eral cemetery funds, while, in fact, it should be the obligation of survivors.

In a reasonable attempt to correct this situation, lots and graves purchased before the perpetual care plan went into effect must be converted to this perpetual care plan before another burial or memorial stone is placed. Lots and graves toward which no care has been contributed for fifteen years or more are considered to have been relinquished.

Restrictions It can be readily seen that the presence of upright manuments, especially in a particular area, brings about. difficulties in opening graves, cutting grass, sodding and so forth. This means more equipment and more employees to whom a just wage must be paid. It is understandable, therefore, that there must be some restriction on upright monuments. Flush monuments, which do not interfere with rapid maintenance, are generally unrestricted and are recommended.

Grave decorations must likewise be restricted for several reasons. Flowers and decorations have to be removed and replaced each time the grass is cut and trimmed and this is time-consuming. Wire holders and glass vases, prohibited in most cemeteries, are dangerous to the workers as well as to machinery.

It must be remembered that the average income received from the Cemetery Perpetual Care Fund is about two dollars per grave. In view of this, all would readily agree that the cemeteries of the Diocese are kept in a state of' fitting reverence and care with so little money contributed.

Melkite Diocese WASHINGTON (NC) - A request to have Melkite-rite Patriarch Maximos V Hakim of Antioch establish' a Melkite-rite diocese in the United States has been endorsed by a petition bearing several thousand signatures and forwarded to Pope Paul VI.

lPo@r Sh(l)U~d N@t( ~(g, ~mt~~@ Agamnst Poor ~rlJ Aid ~aee, By' Barbara Ward If human needs were the only arguments, if Pope Paul's precept and example in setting aside Vatican funds for development in Latin America were taken seriously, there could be little hesitation among Christians over the question of economic assist, ance to developing peoples. sary loopholes for avoiding his share of taxation.

But, as we know, there is, Nations are prone to the same so far, no sustained or con- temptation, An America which sistent support for Atlantic aid among Christian voters. Why is this? Why, at a time of unprec- " edented pros-~. perity among: the w e a I thy nations of the W est, i s the Christian response on the whole so inadequate? For what else can one call, for instance, the present American posture.

The richest nation in human history, a nation of which probably at least half the citizens would call themselves Christian, is now only seventh on the list of donor countries and may well disappear from it altogether by 1970. Surely the angels of the Judgment Seat will find these facts extremely odd and look for some explanation.

Hard to Do Let us mention only briefly the obvious traditional one. Few rich people like parting with their fortune. Their archetype is the rich young man in the Bible who asked Christ for the secret of holiness but, on learning that it involved selling his possessions and giving everything to the poor, "went away sad" and, as far as we know, did not come back.

Rich families, rich communi-' . ties, rich nations-they have the same difficulty as rich individuals in taking their camel-like load of wealth through the needle's eye of generosity and imagination.

The sheer' scale of wealthAmerica's $40 billion annual increase, its average per capita income of nearly $4,000 (it is $60 in India) - does not provide an answer. The law which Professor Parkinson did not invent _ the law that "needs rise to fill the income available"-operates all the time to turn yesterday's luxuries into today's necessities.

This upward "income drift" can, as this column has already suggested, make a man feel hard-pressed financially at $10,900 a year or $20,000 or $50,000 or $200,OOO-even if he has, at this level, contrived the neces-

Asks Priests Help Select New Bishops MILWAUKEE (NC) - Archbishop William E. Cousins of Milwaukee has asked all priests of the archdiocese to help in the selection of future bishops.

Nun to Address Priests' Group

Recently we received a letter from a missionary bishop in Tanzania. Writing to thank the American people for their ge.nerous support of his missions, he reflected that today "the mIssions are not a mere hobby, nor are missionaries a people apart."

Pope Paul VI has echoed this thought in his address to the 33 newly-appointed Cardinals. "It is a duty," the Po?e said, "to h~lp those who are in need of greater development. It IS a duty whIch cannot be deferred."

As Christians we are all one. But flowing from this unity is a definite responsibility toward all our brothers in Christ, especially toward those in need. Christ's mandate makes the missions an' essential part of Christian life. Not something on . the fringe; not accidental; not a sentimental quality of the Church; not ,a mere "hobby." .

As Christians we are obliged to spread the Good News In which we profess our belief. As Christians we are obliged to reach out beyond our immediate surroundings to serve Christ's poor.

Much, of course, is being done to relieve the poverty and suffering of those in the mission lands. Native priests are being trained; educational and medical facilities are being improved; missionaries are receiving support. It can be said without reservation that little would have been accomplished without your help.

Yet, in spite of the magnificent help given, the missions are still in dire need of your support. So much has been done, yet so much more' remains to be done! In many areas, for example, missionary priests must still manage on a budget of less than $1 per day.

But the American people are generous! They are taking seriously their duty of mission responsibility.

In closing his letter, the same missionary bishop remarked: "We alone know what are our needs and our miseries; but our distant brothers and. friends guess them correctly and live them with us. We see it by their gifts which are the gifts of their hearts."

CYO Director Says Youth Have Urge to Help Others

Po rish-e§

Want Opportunity The basic emphasis of the CYO' program, Msgr. Leonard explained, is "to convince teenagers that even though they are teen-agers they have a responsibility to give to the Church, and to give to the total community in which they live. We would call this an apostolate," he said.

But teens do not use that word. he said. "In their language it simply means to serve the Church, to serve the community, and thereby serve God through the type of activities that are ap· propriate to this age group," he added.

Msgr. Leonard was asked whether the claim that today's youth are selfish and egocentric is justified; he replied that the reverse is true. Ten years ago CYO attracted teens by giving

Ask HeMing Questioned about youth's attitude toward a "structured organization'" versus working on their own and in which they can express themselves.

One of the complaints of youth today, he said, is that adults make decisions without consulting the teens. This does not mean teen-agers want to make all the decisions, but they do want to be heard first, he explained.

When asked about campus unrest, Msgr.

Leonard said: "Where demonstrations do occur I think that for the most part the young people are interested not so much in selfish aims, but they are interested in improving a situation." But there are exceptions to this which are publicized, he added.

Students Protest Compulsory ROTC

SAN ANTONIO (NC)-About 200 students and several faculty members of St. Mary's University held a peaceful demonstration here in Texas to protest the administration's refusal to make the Reserve Officers Training Program voluntary in all four years.

At present the ROTC program here is compulsory for freshmen and sophomores. The university's executive council approved a faculty senate recommendation that the program be made voluntary for sophomores and kept obligatory for freshmen.

"Teen-agers want this involvement. Psychologists tell us that teen-agers are looking for adult models and adult Christian models:' he said on Guidelines, a weekly program carried by NBC. When questioned about the role his division' plays in the USCC, Msgr. Leonard explained his office is concerned with the leisure time hours of Catholic youth, the teen-agers and young adults. Programs for the prehighschooler are not included. he said.

The Catholic Youth Organization program included about seven million of the estimated 100 million under 25 population in the nation, he said. "We don't count our success in numbers, but in the quality of the program," he added. \

"We do not believe that the economic, social and civil liberation of man requires the necessity of banishing religion as being a deviation from the struggle to establish truly human dimensions and to build up an earthly city.

"And finally we do not believe that the ineffable, mysterious, transcendental and unknown God is inaccessible and distant."

The Pope's declaration that "we, too, are non-believers" seemed to be taking up the challenge laid down at the opening of the symposium by American Protestant theologian Harvey Cox, author of "The Secular City," who asked "whether we have really forced our fellow human beings into an artificial category when we created a category called ·non·believers....

LUBBOCK (NC) - Parishes and organizations in the Amarillo, Texas diocese will participate as sponsoring agents for a Federal Housing Administration housing program which enables low income families to own their own homes.

Approval for participation was ~iven by delegates to the Genllral Assembly of the Diocesan pastoral Council.

Frank Carrillo of Lubbock, delegate to t~~ Assembly from the Diocesan Social Action Department, explained the duties of ~ sponsoring agent for the program.

"We have a crucial housing need in our whole diocese," Carrillo stated in urging the passage of this recommendation. There is no financial commitment reo quired of a sponsor in the program, he said. The sponsors' concern. is "primarily an advisory one, working with the buyer to secure the home, helping them with living problems in the home, and assisting budgeting so that the buyer does not default on his loan," Carrillo explained.

The 208 voting delegates attending the third General Assembly was the largest number since the council was organized in March, 1968. This meeting was the first held in the southern part of the diocese. The F.H.A. recommendation was one of 19 presented by commissions and approved by vote.

Bishops Ask Int庐[f(ession for Ukraill1lions

THE ANCHORThurs., May 22, 1969

Nation Resents Pornography Ads

PHILADELPHIA (NC) In an appeal in "Defense of the 'Church of Silence'" in the Ukraine, three Ukrainian-rite Catholic bishops of the United States called on world leadership to intercede through their respective governments and Church hierarchies on behalf of the persecuted people of Ukraine and their church.

Signed by Metropolitan Ambrose Senyshyn of Philadelphia, Bishop Joseph M. Schmondiuk of Stamford, and Bishop Jaroslav Gabro of Chicago, the appeal deals with the recent arrest and reported death of Ukrainian Catholic Archbishop Basil Welychkowsky, C.SS.R. It said he was arrested by Soviet agents on Jan. 27, 1969, in Lvov and reportedly taken to a prison in Moscow.

The arrested archbishop was said to have been consecr.ated in secret and to have been carrying on his duties for Catholic Ukrainians.

The Ukrainian Catholic Church organization had been destroyed by the Soviet government in 1945-46, it was said, but millions of Ukrainian Catholics have refused to accept communistbacked Russian Orthodoxy and continue to worship through their Catholic religion secretly.

UN Declaration The memorandum - appeal quoted Soviet newspapers in which the Ukrainian-rite Catholic Churcll was assailed as "instrument of Western intelligence agencies" and as an obstacle to "communist progress and development" in Ukraine.

It also cited the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights, to which both the USSR and the Ukrainian SSR are signatories, and which provides for complete religious freedom.

Asking for prayers for the' "Church of Silence" of Ukraine, the U~rainian Catholic bishops of the U. S. appealed' for world support for the suffering people of Ukraine in their quest of freedom.

The memorandum-appeal noted that news reports published in this country, Canada and Italy and Archbishop Welychkowsky had died in prison on March 17.

The statment of the bishops added: "However, subsequent reports have denied his death, stating he was transported to the 'capital,' which could mean Kiev or Moscow."

Regan Favors Aid To Private Schools ANAHEIM (NC) - Gov. Ronald Reagan told the California Association of Christian Schools Spring rally that he f.avors Federal aid to private schools.

"We plan to petition the Federal government for that kind of school aid that would not violate separation of church and state," he said.

The governor acknowledged the "sacrifice and wisdom of parents who endure a kind of double charge for their children's education." "I am not unmindful of your problem," he added.

Gov. Reagan called private schools "an educational whetstone which forces public schools to compete for excellence."

He said the teaching of morality has been ruled out of public schools at a time when "the world is hungry for morality and none so more than youth."

"We are coping with a revolu路 tion that begins with an assault. on the moral values of our young people," Gov. Reagan stated.

"Destructive cultural change is sweeping our way. .C hange for the sake of change is becoming the dominant phil路 osophy. We no longer can afford to starve the spirit.

WASHINGTON (NC) - President Nixon's call on Congress for three new laws to combat the sending of "smut materials" through the mails reflects the rising tide of resentment in the nation against this offensive matter.

Senators and Congressmen have been getting large volumes of mail from constituents protesting against advertisements for pornographic matter they say are coming unsolicited to their homes. One Congressman . said that, "from the protests we have received," he could only conclude that the volume of offensive advertisements is increasing.

It is reported that members of Congress have themselves put forward 175 proposals this year for meeting the challenge. No action has been taken on them as yet.

The problem obtains despite the enactment a year ago of a law designed to make it easier for persons to have their names removed from the mailing lists used by smut peddlers.

Already 170,000 requests have been made of the Post Office Department for prohibitory orders. However, the department has had to refuse some 30,000 of these requests, because the complainants failed to send in the material received and the envelopes it came in, or failed in some other way to make a valid complaint.

Plan Tuition-Free Inner-City School NEWARK (NC)-The Dominican Sisters of Caldwell will open a tuition-free experimental junior high school in the innercity next Fall.

Details of the plan were announced here by Sister Vivien, an English professor at Caldwell College for Women who has been named coordinator of the program, called 'Project Link.

The program stems from a proposal made at the' recently concluded special chapter held by the community.

The school, Sister Vivien said, will serve about 125 educationally disadvantaged children in this city where there is a shortage of some 10,000 classroom seats. It will be located in property being provided by the Newark archdiocese. Funding is expected to come from Newark businesses and industry, and foundations which have already expressed an interest in the program.

Reasons for New Church Calendar Continued from Page One better emphasise the feasts of the Lord and to permit later (more modern) saints to also have a place in the calendar.

It was to make it more universal in character.

Some saints will stilI hold the veneration and devotion of a local community' but their celebration is "optional" for the rest of the world. "Generally '" ~, '" the removal of a name 'from the calendar does not mean passing judgement of non-existence or lack of holiness," the Vatican explained. Many names have been; removed, however, because all that remains certain about them is their name, and this would say too little to the faithful in comparison witv many others '" '" ",,, One of, the saints whose feast is no- longer celebrated was dropped from the· calendar in long years past. "Saint" Clement of Alexandria was formally removed two centuries ago from the Roman Martyrology by Pope

Benedict XIV on the grounds . that there never had been good reason to put him there in the first place.

Others can hardly be described as losing their halos since they probably never existed even as. persons, much less as saints.

Pudentiana is an adjective derived from the name Pudens, which belonged to a real person. The confusion probably arose from the Basilica Pudentiana - Pudens' Basilica. Thus "St. Pudentiana" (old calendar, May 19) was probably not a saint but_an adjective.

For other "saints, historians cannot guarantee that they ever existed. Among such is St. Christopher who at best has been obscured by legend and at worst degraded by superstitution. Another doubtful personage is St. Barbara, like St. Christopher enshrined in William Caxton's '~Golden Legend." Still another is St. Catherine of Alexandria. , The entire confusion that has reigned since the new calendar has been announced has given more importance to the Vatican's careful process of canonization.

Many of'the saints who have satisfied the devotion of Christians through the ages have been the product of sincere veneration that blossomed into legend. Some were recognized as saints on a local level without too much investigation and gradually found their way into the universal Church's calendar more by process of charity than that of careful investigation.

ST. MARK

ST. THERESA

By Luke Sims .Ted Dempsey, former AllBristol County League interscholastic' athletic star, is playing a prominent roll on the Providence College baseball team.

Dempsey, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward J. Dempsey Jr., 51 Oliver Street, Fall River, is playing his third year of varsity ball and is listed as a pitcher on the Friar roster.

A two-sport standout athlete at Durfee High (baseball and basketball), Dempsey decided .to focus his attention on the diamond sJ?ort, although he did win a berth on the Friar freshman basketball roster.

Thus far this season the 5-11, 180-pounder has been used mainly in relief pitching 15¥.J innings with a fine earned run average of 2.95: flis fine fireman credentials follow closely on the heels of an excellent junior sea'son when he compiled a 2-2 record as a starter and reliever.

He pitched 21 innings and boasted an excellent 2.45 ERA. Ted is one, of two Dempsey brothers and the middle of three Dempsey children. His younger brother Bob, is a standout performer on the University of Massachusetts baseball team.

Both boys received athletic scholarships to their respective colleges.

His older sister Elaine (Black) is a married schoolteacher and the mother of two daughters.

The Dempsey's are members of St. Louis Parish.

Ted has always been interested in sports. From the time he
