Reaction To Pope's Opening

Address Generally Favorable VATICAN CITY (NC) - Reaction of non-Catholic delegateobservers at the Vatican Council to Pope Paul VI's opening addTess to the council was generally favorable.

'11his appeared from conver­ sations with several of the dele­ gate-observers in a position to express "the prevailing views.

What struck a particularly re­ sponsive chord, these sources in­ dicated, were the sentences in which Pope Paul "humbly begged God's forgiveness and asked pardon of our brethren who feel themselves to have been injured by us."

As an American delegate who did not want his name to be used expressed it: Expect Progress "This is the first time since the Reformation that such grati­ fying words have come from it pope."

This delegate felt that a state­ ment of such sincerity will go far in allaying many a Protestant apprehension in regard to the prospects of more intimate in­ terfaith contacts.

"We ourselves," he added, "must follow suit. We must not be less generous than the Pope, for we as well need an 'aggior­ namento.''' ("Aggiornamento"­ updating - is the word applied

by Pope John to the wQrk of the council with regard to the Church.)

The general feeling among the delegate-observers is that Pope Paul went even further than Pope John in stressing the trans­ cending importance of the ecu­ menical movement and that on the strength of so friendly a dis­ position on the part of the Catholic Church, further pro­ gress in interfaith relations now may well be expected.

Newman Clubs Drive To Boost College Work

Urges Employers Adopt Christian Sense of Values

WASHINGTON (NC)­ The National Newman Foun­ dation has announced an im­ mediate goal of $5 million to

WASHINGTON (NC) ­ Giuseppe Car din a 1 Siri, Archbishop of Genoa, said .here that he has worked closely with employers because labor problems cannot be solved unless employers ~ave a "Chris­ tian sense of values."

Cardinal Siri came to the United States to speak at the 13th International Management Congress in New York City. He was interviewed while visiting the Apostolic Delegation here before flying back to Genoa.

In his speech to the manage­ men~ congress, Cardinal Siri said management policies, to be ade­ quate, need a "theology of labor."

Asked to define "theology of labor," the Cardinal gave seven principles: Source of Merit l.-"Absolutely s pea kin g, work would have been natural because man had the gifts and the capacity to work, and he could not leave them unused.

2.-"The relationship between work and man's original gifts Shows that work is one of the principal sources of merit.

3.-"We know from divine revelation that, after original sin, work became more difficult.

So work is not the result of Clriginal sin. But original sin made work more difficult.

4.-"Light is thrown on the whole question of labor by the fact that Jesus Christ, for the greater part of his life on earth, worked - and worked with his hands.

5.-"1£ Christ devoted the greater part of his life to a humble and tiring life of hard work, it means that He wants us to be especially interested in those whose condition makes hard and tiring work necessary.

6.-"Divine revelation gives the principles of justice and teaches that, in the field of labor, a sin which especially calls to God for vengeance is that of denying a worker his just wage.

7.-"The worker is a man who has the right, according to what justice demands of society, not only to a salary but to every­ thing he needs to be truly, fully, freely a man."

Pope Paul spoke at an aUdi-. ence granted to a group of Vin­ eentians at the end of their con­ poegation's 33rd general meeting, Cbe first to be held in Rome since • founding in 1625.

The Pope spoke of the congre. ption's founder, St. Vincent de Paul, as "one of the great figures of the Catholic Church."

Engstrom Urges Req uired. College Course LOS ANGELES (NC) - The president of Radio Corporation of America believes all respon­ sible citizens in the 'space age must become scientifically lit­ erate because of the importance of science and its intimate rela-. tionship with principal areas of human thought and activity.

Elmer W. Engstrom has told Loyola University's Citizenship Day Dinner that "scientific knowledg is becoming too important to us in every respect to be left exclusively to the spe­ cialist in science."

He proposed a new required course - science appreciation­ for col'.ege freshmen and soph­ omores.

"It would embrace the broad philosophy and methods of sci­ ence, with particular emphasis upon the intimate relationship of science to the other principal areas of human thought and ac­ tivity," Engstrom told 1,000 civic and industrial leaders; noting that citizenship and intellectual development run hand in hand.

Rapid Growth "Informed opinion and intel­ ligent decision can be expected only from citizens and leaders who possess a working knowl­ edge of all major influences that affect the human environment," the RCA prexy declared.

"Thus, in an era when science and technology are principal agents of social, economic and political change, the citizens of a free society must become sci­ entifically literate," he added.

Because science an<i technol­ olgy have obliterated time and

distance, opened limitless realms of knowledge and place immense power in human hands, "they have forced upon us a require­ ment for rapid intellectual growth," Engstrom said, but have "left unaltered the nature of man himself."

Indivisible AUel:'ianee Engstrom asserted it ia no eo­ incidence that Ameriean society, "the most abundant free society yet known" has considered itself from its earliest dayS to be • nation under God. Concepts of justice and human dignity have been embodied not only in the Constitution but in the prayers and aspirations of those who have shared' in the national destiny from the begin­ ning, said the RCA head. . "Now it would seem that the effort is to sweep away all reli­ gious observances from every form of public activity. It is the conviction of a Christian that we have a Lord of our whole life-­ that this is a total commitment­ that our allegiance is in no way divisible," Engstrom said.

"'In the dawning space age, the challenge of citizenship is thus not only to the mind but to the spirit as well. We have a dual obligation of citizenship - one to the nation of which we are members; the other to the house­ hold of God, of which we should abo be members," Engstrom emphasized.

THE AN('Hf1P.-Diocese of Fan River-Thurs., Oct. 10, 1963

For the Council

Savings With the school year now underway, it is thought­ provoking to read the information that the Catholic school system on an elementary and secondary level saves the nation's taxpayers some two and one-half billion dollars a year. .

If the nations more than 13,000 grammar and high schools closed down, the taxpayers of the country would be faced with the project of building 180,000 new class­ rooms and of providing the teachers and administrators to conduct them. , The taxpayers of Massachusetts, for instance, are eaved annually the amount of $100,520,439. It does not take much of an imagination to picture the tax rates of the various communities if this amount were placed on their shoulders.

It is no wonder, then, that more and more people are expressing gratitude for the burden that Catholic 'parents are carrying. And it is no wonder that Catholics point to their schools with pride as not only the fruit of their sacrifices but the witnesses of their belief that edu­ eation is a thing of the soul as well as of the mind.

Mission Accomplished A significant page in the history of the Catholic Church in America was written quietly recently when the J osephite Fathers assigned priests to a foreign mis­ sion for the first time.

The Josephites were founded in Baltimore in 1893 and their exclusive work has been among the Negroes in the United States. ' It is a sign of the times when the community sees its purpose disappearing. As the Josephite Superior Gen­ eral, Reverend George F. O'Dea, said: "The society fore­ sees and is working toward full integration of the Negro into the American Catholic way of life and with subsequent elimination of the special apostolate to the American Negro."

This is an instance when a group is happy that its goal is ceasing to exist. , It remains for American Catholics to make very sure that the Negro is. accepted fully into the Catholic way of life.

It remains for the American Catholic to be colO!"­ blind in the Faith and to accept as a brother every man who looks to him for reverence and respect. And if that person be a Catholic, then he should be made all the more welcome as a member of the household of the Faith.

And the question of color should not so much as enter into the matter.

The Josephite Fathers have seen their mission ac­ complished. May they have continued success under God in their new undertakings.

Servants All India's Cardinal Gracias has declared in a Council talk that the Catholic Church "exists for service, not for privilege or domination."

This is surely in keeping with the Pope's title of "Servant of the Servants of God." The Catholic Church is the extension in time and space of Jesus Christ. And this is the Christ who aaid, "* * *. for the Son of Mall also has not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

The Church exists for service. Its service is the service of God and the service of man in his relations with God. It exists to bring men to God and to bring God to man for in Christ, in the Church, are God and man reconciled.

The members of the Church - be they Pope, bishops, priests, people - all exist to be servants of God and of all men. Christ has willed that He use the hands of many in His work of salvation. , Every member of the Church, then, to be true to his vocation, must be ever ready and willing and prepared to serve.

Greetings to The Anchoris new corps of high school reporters! For the coming y.ear we'll be seeing events on the 12 campuses of the Diocese through their eyes. They are Lea LaFlamme from Jesus-Mary Aca.demy; Jane Sulli­ van, Mt. St. Mary; Patricia Meanwhile at Bishop Cassidy Denehy, Sac red Hearts; senior portraits were finished up Reginald Cardin, Prevost; today for the m'emory book, and Jeanne Levesque, Domini- debate club e 1 e c t ion shave can, all Fall River.

Family and Henry Pelletier, St. Anthony, both New Bedford; and last, but certainly not least, Suzanne C han die r, Sacred Hearts, Fairhaven.

At Prevost, seniors are "avidly working at brief research papers on miracle plays. This is the' launch pad for an extensive program planned by the English moderator, Brother Robert. Also included is a reading program of a wide selection of books."

And at Holy Family faculty members have joined in a very popular homework arrangement that might well spread to other schools. "To ease the homework burden," says our reporter, "there are no religion assignments on Monday night; no sciences on Tuesday; no history on Wednesday; no languages on Thursday; DO math on Friday. , '"The student body," continues Beatrice, "has found this system to be very effective and hope8 it will continue."

Trying Tests Tests are still in the air at Dominican A cad e m y, notes Jeanne Levesque. All students took Iowa Educational Development tests for the third consecutive year, while sophs and juniors took aptitude tests and juniors are faced with preliminary scholastic aptitude exams.

"Everyone will hail the end of this try i D g period," sighs Jeanne.

The lovely leaves of autumn are being put to good use by art students in advanced classes at Bishop Cassidy. They're experimenting with monoprints, using the leaves for des i g n and working with linoleum inks and brayers.

Meanwhile beginning juniors 8I'e using a series of collages to make humorous posters promoting school activities; while 8Ophomores in an introductory class are also making collages, discovering the fun of using Vl&ried textures, ranging from string, buttons, yarns and cottona to silks and woolens.

The courses are for one hour after school one day a week.

Beginning last Friday, they will continue for an average' of five weeks.

At Fall River's Sacred Hearts Academy Rev. John Hackett, chaplain, has installed officers of the Student Government As­ sociation. 'Girls received badges, took their pledge of office and concluded the ceremony by crowning Our Lady, Queen of the Holy Rosary. Kathleen Raposa, president of the student council, presided and the school orchestra, under president Beverly Furtado, entertained.

Mary Ann Iwuea placed second and Kathy Vaug­ han was third in the annual event. It was second for second for Mary Ann _ last year she won the same distinction.

Team teaching at Mt. St. Mary Academy has produced a drama­ tic reading of the English morality play, "Everyman." Eight seniors participated in the pre­ sentation of the 15th century drama.

Diane Coons heads the student council at Sacred Hearts, Fair­ haven, and she'll be supported

by Jacqueline Hevey, vice-presi­ dent; Jacqueline Grant, secre­ tary; and Ja9ice Lussier, trea­ surer.

Also at the Fairhaven school, student councillors are acting as a patrol squad. They are stationed at various points in halls and on stairs to aid in maintaining order.

Coyle High School is proud of Paul Wessling, senior, who par­ ticipated this Summe~ in an ad­ vanced s~ience program under the auspices of Tufts University.

From 300 applicants, Paul was one of 50 accepted for the seven­ week program. He chose to fol­ Iowa math course which, as he explained, "started from scratch and developed, by explanation, our present system of mathematics."

Covered were calculus, math logic, number theory and topo­ logy.

An honor student at Coyle, Paul plans an engineering major b> college. He feels the Summer program gave him an idea of what to expect in college _ level work and that it will help him in his math this year as well as in college and later on the graduate level.

Captains of intramural :volleyball teams at Dominican Aca­ demy are Colette Boyer, Doria Brault, Beverly Cambr~' ,Carol Caron, Celeste Gariepy, Louise Lavoie, Pauline Pelletier and Mary Louise Souza, while at Holy Family basketball is in the llpo.tlight with practice scheduled to begin next Tuesday.

Square Dance At Jesus-Mary Academy Scdr.lists are planning a Halloween square dance with the objective. of promoting school spirit and a sense of friendliness among stu­ dents: Juniors and seniors will be "boys" for the affair, with their dates coming from the freshman and sophomore classe..

BISHOP CASSIDY FACULTY: Lay teachers at Bishop Cassidy High School in Taunton are, rear, Arthur J. Murphy, from left, front, Mrs. Dorothea McGovern, Mrs. Marie Grzywacz, Mrs.' Margaret Mack, Mrs. Joanna Alden.

An old-fashioned ice cream p&rlor will be set up in the cafe­ teria for after-dance refresh­ ments. The event will replace the yearly freshman initiation and Halloween party.

Debaters are active at many Diocesan highs. At Prevost team members, under mod era tor Brother Dominic Roger, ll'1"e "rapidly preparing for their forensic openers. With valuable experience gained from last year's encounters, the team ex­ pects to challenge the league lead."

Prevost debate club officers are Arthur Desrosiers, president; Marc Mancini, vice - president; Reginald Cardin, secretary; Col­ lin Matton, treasurer.

At Bishop Stang debaters are also warming up for Narragan­ SE:tt League activities, officially opening in January, while at SHA Fall River, officers of the Debrabant Debaters -are Ellen Mooney, president; Aileen Malo­ ney, vice-president; Margaret Donnelly, secretary; Beth O'Neil, treasurer; Mary Jane Campbell, librarian.

Diocesan officers of the Narry Debate League are Coyle, presi­ dent school; St. Anthony, vice­ president school; Feehan, secre­ tary school; Holy Family, trea­ surer school.

Short Season Bishop Cassidy's library boasts a "listening nook" in addition to the to-be-expected "reading nooks." StUdents can play re­ cords that accompany literature, courses, as well as other discs that supplement classroom study.

At Holy Family the beginning and end of the iootball season will come this Saturday as seniors play underclassmen in an annual classic.

Many Average Catholic Man on the Street

Wonders About Numbe~ of Groups

By William F. Hogan, C.S.C., A.B., J.C.D.

Chairman, Theology Department

Stonehill CoHege, North Easton, Mass.

Gathering from the questions sometimes asked, it must be somewhat confusing to the average layman to see so many different religious communities of men and women in the Church. A glance at the many vocational recrl;lit­ ment ads which appear in Inquiries are made into the Catholic newspapers and various phases of tlJ,e proposed magazines must add to the new congregation imd if the perplexity since these ads necessary conditions are ful­

I

manifest in many instances that many of these religious groups are engaged in the same type of work. "Why," he may well ask, "should there be 90 many?

Would it not be more efficient to have but a few larger groups dedicated to performing differ­ ent apostolic works than many smaller ones engaged in the same apostolate?" This question h an important one and the answer to it brings a clear~r un­ derstanding of some aspects of religious life and the life of the Church.

Before a new religious com­ JIlunity is founded, many condi­ tions must be fulfilled because the Church strongly feels that religious congregations must not be multiplied without necessity.

(Indeed, today Rome urges that yery small communities located In the same area and having the Ame basic purposes unite into one larger group.) _ Lists Conditions There must be, first of all, • real need for the community in the area in which it is to be founded, which means that there i!! no other religious congrega­ tion in that region doing the proposed particular work for .auls and God. If a similar group should exist, then those who wish to found the new community are en­ eouraged to enter the already existing -group.

Then 'the intended new com­ munity must have some means of support before Church au­ thorities will grant permission for its establishment; a name and • religious habit different from that of other religious communi­ ties - already existing must be ellosen and submitted for' ap­ proval.

fIlled, approval is granted on a temporary basis; when the com­ munity has proven itself, then later there is granted the final approval.

Most of the many religious communities existing on this continent which have similar types of apostolates, such as teaching or nursing, originally arose in Europe, in places where no religious community existed tc perform these works.

As they became larger in num­ bers, they came to the different parts of the United States to answer the needs of this nation in its religious development; 'and when American vocations fur­ ther increased their size, houses of these communities were established in other parts of' the country where religious were needed.

Basic Type of Work In other parts of the States where European religious did not found houses, Almighty God inspired generous souls to found new communities to satisfy the needs of a particular locale and many of these new communities eventually developed in size and went to other localities to assist in apostolic works, bringing Christ'. life and message to souls.

As a result of the expansion of the European and American­ born communities and their an­ swering calls from the dioceses of the United States, we now may find 25 or 30 different groups of religious within the limits of one diocese all engaged in the same basic. type of work.

Neighboring parishes, for ex­ ample, may have schools _con­ ducted by different communitiel of Sisters; but· all this is ulti­ mately explained, by the fact that there was. real need some-

Cites Obstactes Ci~ranted that a need arose in the past, we might think, but is there still a need for so many dlv,erse congregations today ­ eouldn't they all be united into one? or at least a few?

'I'here are several considera­ tions to be made against such a linE! of thought. The size alone of 'the community or communi­ tieE' which would result from a union or amalgamation of all the teaching religious congrega­ tions or the nursing religi,ous groups w 0 u I d in itself be enc,ugh to deter ecclesiastical authorities. from contemplating such a procedure; it would be at least extremely difficult, if Dot impossible, for an efficient system of government to be worked out, for the emerging grCl'up, and gooc;lgovernment is essential to every aociety, civil or religious. There would have to be an abandonment of all the time-tested procedures of reli­ gious communities.

Superficial Considerations Moreover, the practical dif­ ficulties of agreeing on a single religious habit for all these re­ ligious - women especially ­ would be overwhelming, since eaeh existing community has a special attachment for its own gal~b and would be reluctant to give it up. ~rhe same would be true of the

CUiltoms and traditions which have been in use in some cases fol' more than a thousand years; how could they be kept and all blllnded into one set to please all the religious of different backgrounds. _ :But these consideratIons are

superficial; there are more basic and important reasons why • multiplicity of similar religious in:rtitutes should exist indepen­ dently of one another.

Significant Differences Despite the .similarities which may exist between' -t-eligious communities.. engaged ill the sa:rne type of apostolic ,work, there are differences of real sig':' IlHicance. Every I' eli g i 0 U • t- ,. ... .. • .. :.:' ..

founder has ' received special graces and insights when he or ,she was inspired by God to establish' a religious community; ir- each case the chosen soul was directed to place special em­ phasis on some virtue or, com. bination of virtues in addition to the general practises of Chris­ tian perfection to be sought after by all Christians.

This stress of a particular virtue or combination of virtues constitutes what is known as the "spirituality" of a community and religious are supposed to imitate their founders in de­ "eloping these qualities toa high degree.

Thus today we have commun­ 'ities which strive to inculcate in their members in a 'spechil way the practise of the works 'of mercy, or the'virtues of humi­ lity, poverty of spirit, hospi­ tality, or the pursuit of "intellec-' , tual virtue for supernatural purposes, e~c.

Obligation of Religious ' Is this of real import? Indeed It is, for all ,followers ofChris~ by their baptismal consecratio!! have a ,serious obligation' tQ bear witness' to Christ in this world through their lives and actions and thus further the ef­ fects of the Incarnation of the Son of God. 'Dhe Christian fulfills this apostolic role by conforming his

Gi~

life to Christ's teaching and by imitating His virtues. Religioua men and women who have pub­ licly professed to witness to Christ in an even greater degree must exert more effort than the layman thus striving to' imitate ­ Christ the more perfectly. .

Basic Functions . Each religious community by fostering in a special way some one or few virtues in its mem­ ber- is intensifying the witness borne to Christ in this world.

Christ, being divine as well as human, has unlimited facets and perfections in which to be imi­ tated and manifested to the world; it is one of the basic functions of the many diverse religious communities to bear witness to one or other of these perfections for all the world te see and to be encouraged.

Unfortunately some religious themselves do not realize their role as witness to a special aspect of Christ in this world.

The variety of congregations pursuing the spiritual ideals of their founders in seeking special virtues keeps before the eyes , of the world the many spiritual perfections of Our Lord after which we all should strive.

Without this multiplicity of 'witnesses to special virtues, we eitizens cd this world would be deprived of a valuable source of knowledge and example ill following the Christian ideal.

Assure Veneration Correlatively with this variety in the stressing of individual virtues we find that most com­ munities are dedicated to hon­ oring the Godhead in one of its divine aspects, or to honori'ng .some mystery of the life of Our Lord or of His Redeeming Work, or to some phase of the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary or Off CoDe of the saints.

The religio~s belonging to a community dedicated to this or that mystery or saint assure that veneration is paid on the part . of mankind.

It would be difficult for the ­ Cbristian to explicitly show ven­ eration and gratitude for. all the wondersome mysteries of Chris­ tianity, and the saints are so numerous and' diversified that one cannot even -be aware of all of them, much less' give them the veneration -that is their due.

Spring in England by a diocesan

tribunal.

Mother Cornelia, convert and

mother of several children, died

in Sussex, England, in 1879. She

left the United States for Eng­

land to found the Society of the

Holy Child Jesus after her hus­

band, a former Episcopalian

minister, had begun studies for

the Catholic priesthood with a

special papal dispensation.

A sensation was created in

Britain when the husband, re­

verting to Protestantism, tried

tc; 'force Mother Cornelia to give

up her life as a ,nun and return

to him. The case went to the

courts and finally to the Privy

Council before the' foundress

was free to continue her work

with the Holy Child society.

Interest in the Cornelia Con­ nelly cause was crystallized in 1953 when the Southwark die-; cese set up a'commission to eva-' luate her life. The cause was in.:. troduced in 1959, and in 1960 a total of 55 .volumesof the fcundress' writings were sent to th~ Sacred Congregation of Rites

in Rome. Father James Walsh,

S.J., is Southwark diocesan

postulator for the cause.

de Wohl1s Story of David Adds Little to Original

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen,D.D. Three colored pamphlets tying the Mass with tithing came to our office the other day, The following was in bold print:

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy Louis de Wohl's David of Jerusalem, posthumously published (Lippincott, $4.95), is not one of his best efforts.

It concerns, of course, King David, and follows his career from his anointing, by the prophet Samuel, to his last days.

The Bible treats of this have an affair. They decide tha,t career at considerable length, Fanny must leave her husband, and what Mr. deWohl has that a divorce must be arranged, done is to elaborate on the and that thereafter they will already clear and well articu­ lated biblical account. At the ou tset, there is the successful fight with the I ion stalking the shepherd boy's flock, this establishing Da­ vid's uncommon .trength. In sh 0 r t order, there comes the slaying of Goli­ ath. then the summons to King Saul's presence, and the king's ambivalent treatment of· the- youth whose prowess he could well use but whom he fears as the one destined to sup­ plant him.

Thereafter, David's nomadic eXistence, his proving himself as a peerless war leader, his ill~ requited services to king and people, and finally his accession to the kingship are set forth.

The dramatic incidents of his long reign are detailed, and his decline an\l passing away are spelled out. .. Goes Through. Motions Mr. de .Wohl always managed to make a swift-flowing story of. any subject he took up. But some of his other books had more strength and substance, as well as less fustian, than this.

Here he seems to have been merely going through the mo­ tions. The cliches of situation, gesture, speech tread heavily upon one another, and there iI never any real insight into Da­ vid's character, much less into those f)f the men and women lurrounding him.

And in many instances the at­ tempted dramatization of bibli­ cal passages proves to be much ~ less striking than the original.

Warfare on Lake Garda Rumer Godden is a gifted and practised novelist. In the past she has produced some subtle, exquisitely polished, and worm­ ly appealing fiction. These ele­ ments are easily discernible in her new book, The Battle of the Villa Fiorita (Viking. $5). But somehow the reader feels let down when he comes to the end ·of the story she here sets before us.

Once again, children are among the principal figures.

Those with the most conspicuous parts to play are Hugh Claver­ ing, aged 14, and his sister Cad­ die, aged 11. They have a sister Philippa, who is 17, but she lea.ves for school in Paris and is mostly offstage.

The three are the children of Colonel Darrell, Charles Claver­ ing, a Queen's messenger, and his wife Fanny. The Claverings have been married for 18 years and are in their middle forties.

Fanny has led a very quiet life down at Whitcross in the coun­ try, taking care of her husband and family. But now all the peace and order which husband and family have long taken for granted are destroyed.

Incredible Journey For a film company has been shooting a picture at Whitcross, and the director, Robert Quillet. a widower with a child who lives with her Italian mother's people in Rome, is attracted to Fanny Clavering and she to him. They

marry.

Darrell Clavering is shocked and desolate, and the children are utterly bewildered as their parents separate, Fanny goes away, the divorce action is pushed . through, Darrell gets custody of the youngsters. Even before the decree is final, Fanny travels to Italy to join ,Robert at a villa on Lake Garda. .

As the children talk things over, it appears that they can do nothing save accept the calamity.

But indomitable Caddie declares that she and Hugh must set out for Lake Garda and bring their mother back. They undertake and complete the incredible journey.

By the time they arrive, Fanny has' found some peace. She had been wrenched ~part by the dis­ ruption of her life and the loss of the children. But she is happy with Robert and has gradually adapted to th~ radically changed situation. Then Hugh and Caddie walk in.

Robert is determined that they shall be packed off home at once, and Fanny agrees, but with some reluctance. Their hold on her heart is strong.

The plan to get rid of them immediately miscarries, how­ ever. There are complicatiolY which keep them on at the villa.

And Robert's daughter, 10-year­ old Pia, joins the menage which already overtaxes the tiny house.

Conflict rages, ever more com­ plicated.

Book Too Lonl' Despite Robert's frantic at­ tempts to keep Fanny, the battle goes against him. In the end, he and Fanny part, and she goes home to England with Hugh and Caddie, hoping to make some­ thing of the family life which her infatuation had shattered.

The principal fault with the book is that it is rather too long.

It is hard 'enough to believe in the situation which the author· presents without having one's creduilty -overtaxed by needless protraction of the narrative.

When it hits certain slow and dull passages, one gets too much opportunity to grow impatient and to begin to find the whole thing implausible.

The characters are reasonably real, especHllly the children. And in Caddie, Miss Godden has cre­ ated a blend of wisdom and na­ ivete, of helpless and ruthless­ ness, which one finds engaging and delightful The best parts· of the book center in this child who thrusts the truth at her bemused elders. .

As for Fanny's affair with Robert, and its consequences, these seem more cinematic than lifelike. The adulterous inter­ lude is given an idyllic cast-as if the people involved were in their teens and not middle-aged folk with crow's feet and dis­ trust of illusion.

On the other hand, the actual­ ity and force of conscience are conveyed, and the validity of the old and sometimes inconvenient moral code is demonstrated. And although the affair is painted in soft and shimmering colors, the denouement has the hardness and inevitability of life itself~ It is the blend of the two elements which Miss Godden has not brought off successfully.

For God:

10 per cent

For me:

90 per cent

For ME! And tying this with the Holy Sacrifice of Calvary!

If there was ever an unchristian idea, it is skimming the 10 per cent foam for our Creator, our Redeemer and our Sanctifier, in order that 90 per cent of the liquid wealth may go to our egos.

IN ROME: Rev. Roger Plante, M.S. has left La Salette Seminary, Attleboro, to study in Rome for a' doc­ toral degree in theology. He was professor of metaphys­ ics and theodicy at the semi­ na:ry and also headed the in­ stitution's Bureau of Infor­ mation. In Rome he. will study at the College of St. Alphonse under direction of .Rev. Bernard Haring, C.SS. R., world-famous moral theo­ logian.

R.evolution Continued from Page One Overall theme of the meeting was "The Christian C.hallenge in Latin America." The speaker agreed that the "challenge" 11 huge, immediate and crucial to the future of the world.

"The peoples of Latin Amer­ icu khow today that it is not their unalterable fate that they live in disease, that millions of their children must die before they reach manhood, or that hunger '\Pains are as natural .. breathing," said Teodoro Mos­ coso, U. S. coordinator of the Al­ liHnce for Progress.

"They mean to change their plight-and to do it fast," he said.

AposioUc Spirit Moscoso spoke as he received the CAIP's annual Peace Award.

He was cited for carrying out one of the world's most impor­ tant projeets--the Alliance for Progress which is the U. S. pro­ gram of economic and technical aHsistance to Latin America.

Father John J. Considine, M.M., director of the Latin America Bureau, National Cath­ oIlc Welfare Conference, said "the spirit of an apostolic cru­ sade" has in. many areas re­ placed "the hopeless apathy that marked much of Latin ,American Catholicism not so many year.

Did not Our Lord, Whose example we are to follow, say: "I love you unto the end?" May we claim we are united to the Sacrifice of the Mass by a 10 per cent . love? Did Our Lord hang on the cross 18 minutes, or only one-tenth of the total oblation of three hours? Did Magdalen, who united herself with His death and burial, pour only 10 per cent of the oint­ meQt and then say: "The other 90 per cent is ff)/J' me?" The only one in the New Testament who kept 90 per cent for him­ self and gave 10 per cent to God was the Pharisee, and Our Lord says that he went back to his house unjustified. Love is not mathematical. Christ tells us to d\'e our cloak when we are forced to give our coat and when we are forced to walk a mile to walk an extra one.

This does not wean that we should give all, but it does mean that we may not measure. Wf' give according to our love: some husbands give 10 per cent of their love to their wives and say "90 per cent for me." The Holy Father's Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith recently requested that we send $10,000 immediately to feed childrp.n· who were SO hungry. that they were filling their empty. stomachs with sand. "Ninety per cent for me" - in the face of that starvation! That only misses by 10 per cent the amount the rich man in the Gospel kept from the poor of the world, and for which he went to hell.

Fellow Catholics, love is not statistical! We have too much hunger and starvation in the wf)/J'ld to calculate our giving! Think Christian! Be Christian! Love the Lord with your ,whole mind and heart and SOUl. Then you will love the Missions!

Fairhaven 'Bishop To Have Hospital

,nee-­

WASHINGTON (NC) President 'Lyndon B. Johnson has hailed the 13th annual ob. servance of National Catholic Youth Week starting Sunday, Oct. 27.

"1 wish for you a successful observance which will help to prepare our young people for the tasks that lie before them," he said in a message to the week's sponsor, the National Council of Catholic Youth here.

Noting the week's theme is "The Young Catholic in the Lay Apostolate," the Vice President commented: "It is of vital importanoe to our country that our youth have before them constantly the en­ nobling traditions of the past.

"New times and new problems demand new approa~hes to the world. But these approaches must not discard or exclude the moral values which we haVE! in­ herited from those that have gone before us."

Worthwhile Recipes Continued from Page SI:1C Bishop of the Diocese is its min­ ister together with 12 pri,ests, seven deacoqs and, seven sub­ deacons. There are prooessio,ns, genuflections, hymns and, a scripturally rich Preface to show, teach and realize the im. portance, of the occasion.

The Holy Chri~ is accepted liS the dwelling place of the 1I01y Spirit, from which and through which He will enliven, cOlllse­ crate and use for His divine purpose all that is anointed. Af­ ter its blessed use, the thing anointed is set aside forever for the exclusive use of God Himself and for man's worship of God. So is the confirmed Christia:n.

In the year 180, TheophHus, Bishop of Antioch, explained it thus: "When you laugh at me, calling me a Christian, you do not know what you are saying.

First, that which is anointed. is sweet and serviceable, and ought not to be laughed at. What llhip can be' serviceable and ,sea­ worthy, uriless it be first anoint­ ed?

Or what tower or hOUSE! ta sightly or serviceable when it has not been anointed? What man, on entering into this life, or when contending in the games, is not anointed with oil? .' What work can be ~omelyand sightly if it not be ai)ointed ,and polished? Then evenitpe air and all that is under hea,ven is, in a kind of way, anointeii with light and spjrit, and do Yc?u not wish to be anointed with' the oil of God? We therefore, are call1ed Christians on this a,ccount, be­ eause we are anoint~d with the oil of God." (Ellard, idem, Po 269)

Oh how marveloU$ God 11: 110 use the simple things and DieD of this world. All are His crea­ tures. But well can we also g'en­ uflect with the ~lshop lwd priests as - the v~l of Holy Chrism is presented, :in thanking God with /Ill our heart for this divine help, this baim for our "wounded glory," th:is sign llnd promise of future glory.

ROSARY RECORD: Two years in preparation, a family rosary record is available gratis to blind and shut-ins of Diocese. Project was undertaken by Dr. and ,Mrs. John E. Manning, Fall River, in thanksgiving for recovery of one of their sons from illness.

From left, Mrs. Manning, Jack and Michael 'Manning examine new record.

Free Rosary Record for Blind, Shut-ins Of Diocese Fulfils Promise to. Our Lady A promise that has taken two years to keep is being fulfilled by Dr. and Mrs. John E. Manning, 573 High Street, Fall River. The promil:le was to Our Lady and it was made when one of the Manning children was believed suffering from a serious disease.

Fairhaven's Bishop Joseph W. Regan, M.M., will soon have a hospital in his Prelature of Ta­ gum, Philippine Islands. It will serve 11 villages in addition to the town of Tagum, in an area with a population of nearly half a million people.

The project came abo u t through speeches of a young Maryknoller before New Jersey Rotary Clubs.

Last year while home on leave, Father John W. Lennon, M.M., spoke before the Rotary . Clubs of Kenilworth, Roselle, Roselle Park, New Jersey. He described the inadequacy of the medical facilities in his mission area.

The Rotarians, in a spontane­ ous expression of friendship for the Filipino people, decided. to help build a hospital in Tagtim.

14Ist week the first shipment of hospital equipment, consisting of beds, mattresses, stretcners and other equipmetnt, arrived.

A second shipment of medical supplies is expected shortly:, A third shipment already in 'prep­ aration will include building material to be used in construc­ tion of the hospital.

Many Give Help News of the generous efforts of the Rotarians spread rapidly, and many other people and or­ ganizations offered a helping hand. Chief among these was the Catholic Relief Services-NCWC who took complete responsibil­ ity for shipping of the hospital equipment from New York to the Philippines.

In Manila, Catholic Relief Services, under the direction of Mr. Lee Sanborn,· handled ~ loading of the equipment and shipping to Davao: Government officials of the Bureau of Cus­ toms were helpful in clearing the much-needed shipment at the Port of Davao.

Meanwhile, the .Prelature of Tagum, under the' guidance' of Bishop Regan, has prepared the land where the hospital will be built. Through the cooperation of the people of Taguin, building will begin as soon as constrUc­ tion materials are available.

No matter how one chooses to look at it, the past 12 months add up to quite a year. Last Summer there was consfderable agonizing about the static condition of the Church and the meager results that could be expected from the Vatican Council.

their own com­

missions and bounced back

to committee schemata which

were rehashes of old theology

manuals.

Not only did the Pope tolerate this "rebellion," but, if we are to believe certain journalists, he actually aided and abetted it.

'11he result was such a dazzling display of freedom of discussion that the Protestant observers don't seem to have recovered from it yet.

The .colleagues of one who had previously been something less than friendly to Catholicism " even argue that he had a conver­ sion experience on the floor of St. Peter's basilica.

High Point He may not have been the enly one. In the United.· States Ecumenical discussions, previ­ ously few and secret, became the order of the day with confer­ ences, seminars, and lecture series springing up all over the place.

The high point came when a eardinal of the Roman Church stood on the stage" of Sanders Theatre and, in the presence, no doubt, of the shades of John Harvard and Increase Mather, announced that freedom of reli­ gion was an essential part of Catholic teaching.

Hans Kueng came to out' shores. Within a few weeks a European scholar who was known to only a handful of American Catholics became a national figure and his lecture tour turned into the kind of tri­ umph usually reserved· for as­ tronauts.

At least part of his popularity came from the fact that he Wall recognized as someone who symbolized the fresh air Pope John was trying to bring to the Church.

Race Problem Then the fun began. Faculties and student bodies in certaiB Catholic universities began to rebel against practices which were time honored-much to the dismay of administraton who bad not yet sniffed the new winds.

The Catholic press, which bJ' and large had ignored such events in the past, pounced on the offending universities with aIrilost malicious glee.

Catholic spokesmen suddenly became acutely conscious of the raCe problem and the role of the laYmen in the modern Church.

Indeed, SO active have Catholics

ing to take it over.

New Freedom The new sense of freedom pro­ duces some astonishing sights.

America, hardly a leftist journal any more, does public battle with the practices of the Congre­ gation of the Holy Office. The Commonweal finds that it is ac­ cused of being too conservative.

And one new journal "spon­ sored" by a Catholic girls' col­ lege goes so far as to suggest :that the Bishops have not con-" demned the arms race because of the dependence of diocesan charities on money from the munitions manufacturers.

A papal encyclical is hailed by the communist press. The list goes on: a new Pope is elected on a platform of continued re­ form; non-Christians and lay­ men are invited to the Council; the American bishops decide to push "for a conciliar statement abOut freedom of religion; 14,000 people jam the National Litur­ gical Conference; the Pope an­ nounces a drastic reform of the curia.

One may have many reserva­ tions about the substance and di­ rection of some of the changes and yet be forced to admit that the Church todaJ' is far different than it was a year ago.

Council Fathers Discuss Church As Second Session Moves Quickly Continued from Page One life, and proclaiming even now the kingship of Christ over the world."

The final section of the draft considers those consecrated to God through a life lived under the standard of poverty, chastity, and obedience.

However acceptable the draft may seem in its general outline, the Council Fathers will have to iron out some thorny problems before it is finally accepted.

Probably the most important of these is the relationship of the bishops to the Pope. The First Vatican Council spelled out very dearly the role of the Pope in the Church but never got around to defining the link between the Apostolic College and the Apos­ tolic See. A clarification of this question would almost certainly mean an increased role of the individual bishops in the work of the universal Church, and far msn-e power in their own dio. ceses and countries; The first practical proposal to increase the authority of the bishops was made by Archbishop Maxim Hermaniuk, a Ukrainian prelate from Canada. He sug­ gested the creation of a kind of apostolic college, presided over by the Pope. Such a college of bishops, the Archbishop said, would have two main advan­ tages. It would free the bishops from having to work though the Roman Curia for many diocesan matters. And it would establish that the authority of bishops is given by Christ, who handed over jurisdiction to the apostles as well as to the Pope.

Excessive Devotion Another problem was touched upon by a Chilean bishop, speak. ing the name of 44 Latin Amer­ ican bishops. It was pointed out that excessive veneration to the Virgin Mary was a danger to Catholic life in their countries, and they urged the Council to

define devotion to Mary in its proper proportions. Other bish­

ops urged that Mary be treated in the general schema on the Church rather than in a separate draft. Since the Blessed Mother is "the greatest member of the Church," it was most natural to include her in the discussion of the Church.

A further source of difficulty will be to explain the relation­ ship of non-Catholics to the Church. Are they already in some way members of the Church through their baptism, and if so,. in what way?

Other bishops warned of treat­ ing of the Church as a mere human society, with its laws and leaders and common purpose.

The Church, they stressed, !J1ust be looked upon as the mystery

Citizens to Assist In Anti-Smut Drive

of love and unity with Christ, as the holy people of God traveling on pilgrimage towards their Father in heaven.

Busy Pace Meanwhile, as the Council Fathers were thrashing out these weighty matters, Pope Paul kept up a busy pace of audiences. He met with the press corps, the cardinals, and national groups of bishops. He held a general audi­ ence for the pilgrims and went out to visit a children's hospital.

Following Pope John's example he did not take part in the daily sessions of the Council. But he did ensure a guilding hand on the progress of the Council by appointing four cardinal-moder­ ators who would reflect his thinking.

And to complete the picture of a well-ordered week, even the press corps seemed pleased with the meaty bulletins of the daily progress of the Council. To all extents and purposes, the lid of secrecy had been removed from the Council. No longer driven to search out the rumors, the re­ porters were now turning out a fairly objective report of what was happening in the Vatican Council.

It seemed rather strange that, with the whole world now sit­ ting in on the Council, the Vica­ riate of Rome should this week have banned the sale' in the Eternal City of three very pop­ ular books on the Council. The purpose of this ban was to "pro­ tect" the bishops from this false picture of the Church. Despite Pope Paul's warning to it, the Roman Curia is not quite ready for a renewal of the Church.

Their ban will probably mean a boom in sales of the books. Such is the nature of man.

German Prelates Urge Firm Faith COLOGNE (NC) - The Ger­

man hierarchy has appealed to the nation's Catholics to stand firm with the Church and has warned against excessive criti­ cism which weakens the Faith.

The joint pastoral letter, de­ signed as a comment on what the hierarchy called the "trans­ formations" stemming from the ecumenical council, was read in all churches. It was adopted by the Bishops at an annual meeting in Fulda.

The Bishops saw "symptoms'" of weariness in faith and reli­ gious practice as part of a gen­ eral tendency to pessimism and appealed to Catholics to stand firm in the Fail!h and to be con­ fident that "our time too is in the Lord's hand who loves lIB and looks after us."

Signs of Renewal Deploring destructive eriticism, the Bishops commented that "there are groups among Germa~ Gatholics who do not want to see the promising signs of Church renewal."

Leonard appointed a seven-member citizens committee to assist his office in con- , trolling display and sale of in"We do not want to say that decent literature in Michigan', nothing should be criticized.

Action Needed to Save Latin America WASHINGTON (NC) - Latin America is many thillgs to many men: problem to the policy­ maker, opportunity to the com­ munist, challenge to the Chris­ tian.

All these aspects and more of tJ.e "cauldron" south of the bor­ der came in for study at the 36th annual conference of the Catholic Association for Inter­ national Peace.

From a welter of facts and statistics presented during the meeting, a major conclusion emerged: the time for action to save' Latin America for demo­ cracy is now. Tomorrow will be too late.

This was underlined by Presi­ dent Kennedy in a message calling Latin· America "the most critical area in the world today."

Expressing determination "that there shall be no more commu­ nist states in this hemisphere," Mr. Kennedy stressed social and economic reform as "the only really effective means to this end."

The President's message was dispatched in connection with the presentation of the CAIP's annual Peace Award to Teodoro Moscoso, U.S. coordinator of the Alliance for Progress, the U.S.­ barked cooperative program of Latin technical and economic aid.

Moscoso brought the Latin .A-IIlerican challenge down t{) the bum an level in his acceptance speech.

Obligation in Conscience "The p e 0 pIe s of Latin America," he said, "know today that it is not their unalterable

fate that they live in diseast, that millions of their childrea. must die before they reach man­ hood, or that hunger pains are _ natural as breathing.

"They mean to change their plight - and to do it fast,.. be said.

A strong endorsement of tile Alliance for Progress came from Msgr. Jilseph B. Gremillion, ... rector of socio-economic de­ velopment for Catholic Rellef SErvices National CatbilDe Welfare Conference, the UA Catholic overseas relief agenq..

He called support of the Al­ liance an obligation "in eoD­ science" for Catholics, and 88ilI that if they fail to back it, "our high-pitched acclamation Ill! Pope John's new social borizonII sc'unds like so much ft~ horn-blowing."

Writer Lauds friend Joe, Typical Honest Policeman

By Joseph T. McGloin, S.J. Joe takes quite a whipping on accasion. His policeman friends kid him for not being a detective or a captain or at least a lieutenant. The crooked cops who were on the force gave him a wide berth and looked on him as pretty much of a square_- one of the and has never hinged any nicest compliments a crooked God, need for help to any of his many eop could give anybody. Even friends and acquaintances. his well - meaning friends Somehow as his wife keeps

throw a few curves at him now and then. And, like all the other cops in a city where a few dishonest ones are exposed, Joe !has to listen to • lot of stale, usually unfunny jokes about crooked cop s .

Joe is a safety of fie e r. He's been a safety officer for years. He goes around to the different schools of the city and lectures on safety. . He helps to train the safety pa­ trol kids. And he's usually be­ hind the scenes in the organiza­ tion of "Traffic Safety Days" and things like that.

Surrounded by Kids But you find Joe in other places too if you look hard enough. You can find him, for instance, herding thousands of safety patrol kids into the foot­ ball and baseball games on a weekend.

You'll find him surrounded by a seemingly infinite number of screaming happy kids at their annual safety picnic~a picnic !he organized, begging people' 'With the money for the candy and ice cream and stuff, because tax money can never be spent for unimportant things like this, even though some of it might occasionally end up in some mysterious places.

Sometimes, too, you'll find Joe rat a meeting of the local hot-rod club, helping in any way he can - to give the kids a chance to use their hobby in a way that's safe for themselves and others.

Aids Good Causes You'll find him giving his time and energy to the work of the fathers' club at his son's or daughter's school, while great numbers of parents with much more time and money are busy relaxing from the strain of earn­ ing an excess of money and spending most of it elsewhere.

He'll take on an extra week or two of duty after hours just to get seme money for the school's building fund, when he could use a building fund of his own.' And he'll give all he has to something special like a Youth Congress, a convention of 2000 teen-agers that sometimes takes place in his home town because he sees the good it can do 2000 kids who are strangers 1:0 him only in name.

Relies on God's Help If you knew him well enough, yOU'd know that Joe is respon­ -sible for getting lots of kids (hundreds actually) an educa­ tion-by buttonholing somebody with enough money, intelligence, civic pride and good will to see the point.

And if you get to know any of these kids, you'll notice two things about them: They would never have gotten an education if it hadn't been for a cop named Joe. And, secondly, they seem to have profited more from their education than a lot of rich kids whose funds were never in doubt.

And yet, when it has been a question of the education and welfare of his own family, Joe has always worked this out with himself, his wife, and his

assuring him, God will take care of things. Which only makes sense when you think of a God who said something about "What you did to these, the least of my brethren, you did to Me," and when you know all Joe has done for so many of these "least."

THE ANCHOR-

Anticipates More Catholic Action On Race Issue

WASHINGTON (NC) The National Council of Catholic Men has urged. t'he support of the civil rights legislation pending In Congress as "a sound and Christian atti­ tude of justice and charity."

The NCCM executive commit­ tee at a recent meeting h(!re adopted a resolution on the sub­ ject which has been circulated to members of the House of Representatives' Judiciary and Rules Committees.

"In the face of the pre~mt racial crisis and the imperative need for a solution to it rooted in social justice and social ch.u­ ity, the National Council of Catholic Men urges your SUlp­ port of a civil rights bill which will grant all citizens, irresp,ec­ tive of race and color, equal rights in voting, In admission to schools on all levels, in employ­ ment, in housing, public fac:U­ ities and in public recreatioltl.," the resolution said.

Spirit of Justice "As official representatives of the National Council of Catholie Men we come to you recogniz­ ing that to us the chief elemE~nt in this question ill a sound and Christian attitude of justice and charity," the resolution contin­ ued.

"In this petition to you, 'we join our neighbors and fellow citizens of all creeds and rac:es who have already IIPOken on ibis issue urging you in the spirit of justice and charity to vote favcll'_ ably for meaningful civil rights legislation .t this session of Congress."

Clothing Drive Continued from Page One administrative board, National Catholic Welfare Conference, in a letter addressed to the Bisho];>!, praised the consistently genE~r­ ous response of American Cath­ olics to the previous Thanksgi,v. ing collections. He' emphasized the far-reaching and effective work of charity that has been accomplished among the world's needy as a result.

"The best proof that our good Catholic people look forward to this collection each year," he said, "is that the total clothing collected regularly exceeds th,at of the previous year."

Final figures on last year's collection, recently released 11>7 Catholic Relief Services-NCWC, overseas aid agency of t:be American Catholia; show a total of approximately 17,482,000 pounds of clothing, shoes, blan­ kets, bedding and other items, valued at more than $25 milliCl'11, were donated.

Sorely Needed Goods "The clothing, shoes and bed­ ding ,athered in the annual Thanksgiving Clothing Colle1:­ tion," Archbishop O'Boyle stated, "make it possible for our Catltl­ olic Relief Services to supply these sorely needed goods te hundreds of thousands of the poorest of God's poor in areas of greatest need throughout the world."

ST. LOUIS (NC)-Catho­ lics can expect their bishops and diocesan organizations to take stronger counter­ measures against specific in­ stances of racial injustice, the head of the Social Action De­ partment of the National Cath­ olic Weliare Conference said here.

Msgr. George G. Higgins, ap­ pearing at a Pastoral Institute on Human Rights for St. Louis priests, said that "the time for statements has ended."

"More is needed now," said Msgr. Higgins. "The bishops now must do a certain number of more dramatic things."

Real Estate Policy Recommending that every di­ ocese have a "Human Rights Commission," such as has been recently fo'rmed here, Msgr.

Higgins said such units should deal quickly and forcefully with all issues.

Businessmen

Contributions Aid Lot of Latin Americans SAN JUAN (NC) - "Ameri­ can businessmen have received too little credit for the out­ ~nding work in ~cUiI adioD that they are performing in Peru and other Latin American countries," according to Bishop Joseph M. Marling, C.P.P.S., of Jefferson City, Mo. Here in this Peruvian city for the dedication of a new church, the Missouri Bishop said the social action program of one United States mining firm is typical of efforts being made by most American firms in Peru to improve the lot of the workers on every level. In many cases the companies did not take social action seriously until about 10 years ago, and older workers still recall old grievances.

The mining corporation, which has been in business here for only 10 years, is steadily im­ proving the lot of 10,000 workers and their families.

Unfair Criticism The ,American mining firm runs schools educating 1,750 stu­ dents. It has donated a small high school to the Diocese of lea, which is directed by a Peru­ vian priest. The company con­ tributes $600 a month to tM sup­ .port of this school.

A GO-bed hospital, with a staff of 11 doctors and 55 other per­ sonnel, handles 9,000 out-pati­ ent calls a month and takes care of virtually all the medical and maternity needs of 'the entire population without charge.

Including health, welfare and educational benefits, the Amer­ ican corporation will contribute close to one million dollars thia year to Peruvian institutions.

Bishop Marling said that "while there is always room for bnprovement in any human en­ deavor, it is not just or fair to level • continuous stream of criticism at An\erican investors In Latin America for their mis­ treatment ol the workers."

Supplies Priests . Pointing to the hundreds of mbstantial brick and cinder­ block bou.es eorwtructed for the workelW b7 the eompany, the BiIrbop added: . ""'I'hae houIea M'e lMmeas1lft­

workers lived in in their moun­ tain villages. The mining com­ pany is building more and larger houses every year and they cer­ tainly merit sincere praise for their effort."

Although he bas only 120 diocesan priests in his diocese, Bishop Marling plans to send 13 to Peru within a three year period. Nine have already ar­ rived.

"'Fhe commissions ought to be very specific and stick their necks out," he said. "We eould expect more than general principles to get us over thi8 theory hump."

Hitting at' what has been a frequent theme in his recent comments on race issues, Msgr.

Higgins suggested that one type of work for such a CO:'lmission might be to seek a change of pol­ icy by real estate dealers who practice discrimination.

He again condemned a policy statement adopted by the Na. tional Associatlon of Real Estate Boards as supporting racial discrimination in housing.

Says Canon 'Law Major Guardian Of Church Unity NEW YORK (NC) ­ Canon law is a major instru­ ment guaranteeing the unity and stability of the Church, the Canon Law Society of America was told at a Mass opening its 25th annual meeting.

Canon law is "an invention and monopoly of the Catholic Church" through which it has "held together the gifts and graces which were the original divine deposit," declared Msgr. :Sohn K, Cartwright, rector of St. Matthew's cat he d l' a 1 in Washington, D.C. "It was-not alone the automa­ tic influence of a sublime doc­ trine, a noble moral code, an up­ lifting worship, a comforting system of sacraments that kept (the Church) one," Msgr. Cart­ wright said.

"It was all these things, but it was these things made into one, bound into one, kept one through the ages by the action of the Holy Ghost expressing it­ self in the Church's authority to make law," he told canonists as­ sembled in the Church of Our Saviour. Francis Cardinal Spell­ man, Archbishop of New York, presided at the Mass.

Stressing the continuing need for canon law, Msgr. Cartwright said there "will always be pre9­ sures to turn the Church into something different from itself."

He noted the "spirit of provi­ sional anarchy" current pending the disclosure of the decisions of the ecumenical council, and said: "Change may be good. The new may be excellent. But the multiplicity of desires must be brought back to unity, and the lust for originality must at the last be reconciled with the will and purpose of the Lord."

Canon law will be "impera­ tive" for accomplishing this task, he added. .'
