Confusing Te6"mWASHINGTON: (NC)-A
Catholic lay leader said herethat the term "lay apostolate" is "incomprehensible"to most laymen and should· bedropp.ed in ~iscussion of theirrole in the' Church. ..Josep~ B. Casey, president of
the Dubuque, Iowa, Archdiocesan .Council of Catholic· Men, suggested that the term "Catholiclay leadership" be· substitutedfor "lay apostola~e."
.. Casey also'. stated that toawaken laymen to their truefunction in the Chur'ch "will require more than a campaign; itwill require almost a revolution."
. The tradition of passive laymenis centuries-old in the Church,and laymen "like their passiverole and they want to retain it,"he declared.
Casey underlined the importance of lay leadership in dealingwith such issues as aid to education. "Unless we have leaderswho are prominent enough to beheard, we will not be heard," hesaid.
It is a "sorr.y situation" that'priests and bishops must oftentake the place of the Catholiclayman in speaking out on publicissues, he added.
Casey spoke at the openinggeneral session of a special threeday meeting on "The Crisis inLay Leadership."

He added that "if Christians ingeneral, and parents in particular, realized that the half deadman helped by the Good Samaritan is today represented by athousand million men, undernourished, ill housed, undereducated-four fifths of mankind-then they would be moved to amore intense interest in government and in, politics."

Bishop Con!!1ollyGives Abso~l!Jltion
The Most Reverend Bishopgave the absolution yesterdaymorning in Our Lady of FatimaChurch, Swansea, following theSolemn Requiem Mass of FrankB. Greene who died on Saturday.
The Mass was sung by Mr.Greene's son, Rev. James F.Greene of St. Joseph's Church,Taunton.
Father Greene was assisted byRev. James F. Kelley as Deaconand Rev. John F. Moore as Subdeacon.
Seated in the sanctuary wasMost Rev. James J. Gerrard,Auxiliary Bishop of the DiOCEse.
Their concern focuses on theeconomkally lesser developedrountries where the introductionof scientifically advanced healthmeasures not directly related to .the economy have induced andpromise to maintain increases inpopulation that place a seriousstrain on presently limited available resources.
In regard to such countries,the Catholic position rejects theuse of abortion, sterilization orcontraceptive techniques forlimiting too rapid growth asclearly contrary to Christianmoral principles.
When regulation is necessary,they propose later marriages,and the observance of absoluteor periodic continence duringsome stage of the family cycle.Such s'olutions are not impractical.
Indeed, the patterns of selfdiscipline, deferred gratification,and 'personal dedication that
, these practices necessarily implymust be judged absolutely necessary if the organized exploitation of resources and technological advances are to proceedvoluntarily.
Above all, Catholic thinkersstress the development 'of resources. Hence they advocate, amultifaceted approach, includingemphasis on universal education,social and economic reforms,capital investment. that willmake the best use of the abundant labor supply, and neededmarketing and trade reforms.
They also insist that the goodsof the earth have been createdfor the use of all mankind, sothat the resource-adequate nations now have a serious obligation to aid .the resource-needyregions through financial andtechnical assistance to the extentthat this appears feasible.
The above offers only a bare,outline of the assumptions, principles, and facts related to theCatholic position on population.However, I hope it is sufficientto enable you to keep future discussions with", your doctor inproper focus.
Explains Catholic PosmC'ionOn ·"Population Explosion'
By Father John L. Thomas, S. J'.Ass&. Sociology Prof.-St. Loois uJiiversity
"What~s the best way to explain the' Catholic positionem the 'pop,ulation explosion' to sincere Non-Catholics? Irecently had my fourth child and in the course of a check-upmy non-Catholic doctor, who has six children of his own,brought up the whole question. I told him that Godmade the world and certainlyknows how to take care ofit. His answer was that God alspgave us common sense and thatwe should useit."
An adequatereply to yourquestion, Jan ewould requirem'Jre space thanI am permittedhere, so I shallconfine my remarks to a fewm a j 0 r pointsthat may provehelpful. Perhapsmore forcefully than any otherissue, the current controversyrelating to population problemsserves to remind American Catholics that they are living in apluralist society.. The term Pluralism as used inthis context means that theAmerican people can no longeragree upon proper moral conductand practice because they' no-longer . agree on basic moralprinciples and values. In otherwords, there is no g~neral consensus on the meaning of manand his relationship to. God.
General PointsUnder these circumstances,
there are several general pointsthat must be kept clearly inmind when explaining the Catholic position on contemporaryissues.
In the firs't place, an intelligent judgment or "position"concerning the morality of anypractice must be based on thelogical application of generalmoral principles to this specifichuman act.
People who base their considerations upon different moralprinciples will necessarily reachdill,erent conclusions.
Hence disagreements concerning the licitness of va'nous formsof population control must logically be based on differencesconerning basic moral principles,and since these are based on ourconceptions of the nature, origin,and destiny of man, any worthwhile discussion of disagreement.in the' moral order must ult~
mately center on this point., Although thi~ seems obvious, it isall too frequently forgotten incurrent discussions.
Moreover, inasmuch as an acceptable program of action always represents a conclusion.based on the prudent applicationof relevant moral pri~ciples toa set of pertinent social facts, wecan discuss the Catholic positionon the "population explosion"intelligently only if we knowboth the principles and the facts.
In regard to the latter, Cath'Olic thinkers must rely on thesame sources of information asall others. Unfortunately, thereremain serious gaps in ourknowledge relating to both basicpopulation data and the natureof the relationship between'population ~rends and socio-economic developmentf
Moreover, we must distinguishbetween the speculative, overallproblem of world populationversus world resources on theone hand, and specific, practicalpopulation - resource problemsexisting in various countries onthe other. '
In general, the ,experts agreethat world resources are ade-quate to meet forseeable futurepopulation increases, providedwe make use of them.

SAN ANGELO (NC) The center of worldwideCatholic unity, guarantee ofapo!'tolic succession and thetrue power and authority lies inthe Pope, Bishop Thomas K.Gorman of Dallas-Fort Worthemphasized in a sermon at theconsecration and enthronementof the Most Rev. Thomas J.Drury, first Bishop of the newlyerected Diocese of San Angelo inSacred Heart Cathedral here inTexas.
Bishop Gorman said that a"thl'cefold apostolic visitation"had come to San Angelo - theerection of the new diocese, the
. consecration and enthronementof iIs first Bishop. He tracedthe succession of bishops oftoday back to the time of theApostles.
"Through long centuries ofcontroversy and bitter strife,when uncertainty about Christ'strue doctrine beat upon theminds of Christian men, whenfalsehood and bitter heresiesraised their ugly heads, menbav~ looked to Rome for guidance toward the truth of Christand protection from the wilesof erro~," Bishop Gorman said.
"Long ago, in the midst ofswirling controversy, when menstruggled to know where wastruth, where the Church, wherethe center of unity, where thegovernment of Christ's trueChurch lay, a great doctor of theChUl'ch cried out suceincUy andpenetratingly, 'Ubi Petrus. ibiEeclcsia.' Where Peter is, thereis the Church.
"Look for Peter and you willfind Cluisk's Church, and wherecan Peter be found save in hissuccessor, the Pope, the Bishopof Rome, divinely appointedguardian of truth in the matterof faith and morals?" BishopGorman continued.
He said that today when theworld is beset "by thle storms ofcontroversy and the attacks oferror, seeking to undermineChristian fGUndations. we mustlook to Peter to find the Church,
, to John XXIll, his successor and'like him vicar of Christ, for
assurance of Christ's truth."

The BLUE NUNS and theBLUE SISTERS are not identical. The principal thing th3ltthey have in common is that thenicknames of both groups is derived from their blue habits (orgarments). The Sisters of the

The Sisters of the Little Company of Mary are known as theBLUE SISTERS, from the coloI'of their veil.
MONDAY - St. Francis ofSales, Bishop, Confessor, Doctor."In the gathering of the Churchthe Lord opened his mouth andfilled him with the spirit of wisdom and understanding," beginsthe Introit of today's Mass. TheChurch is Christ, so it is not manwho brings gifts and talents tothe Church but rather theChurch which' enables man towhatever c'onfession of faith,wha'tever utterance, whateverwitness he may make. Everyconfessor and teacher in theChurch is a part of Christ's con_tinuing Epiphany, a part of Hisgracious manifestation of Himself to men.
WEDNESDAY - St. JohnBoSco, Confessor. Perhaps thedifference between the greatsain~ of Christian history andourselves is as much in thequality of vision as it is in moralstamina. For Christ's ,Epiphany,His manifestation, goes on aslong as time lasts. The Epistleasks, us whether we are opento this Epiphany, this vision, in"whatever things are true, whatever honorable, whatever just,whatever holy, whatever lovable,whatever of good repute." Dowe confront God in these experiences? Do we thank Him forthem? Do we rejoice in them?
Stresses LeadershipIn MQral Order
CHICAGO (NC)-When moralleadership fails to measure upand the caliber of dedication becomes mediocre, "we are ingrave danger of substitutingshowy superficial images forideals," the Governor of Illinoiswarned here.
Gov. Otto Kerner spoke at theFestival of Leadership banquetsponsored by the Society of theLittle Flower in the PalmerHouse. The dinner benefits students for the Carmelite priesthood.
Before students for the priesthood can exert their influence onthousands yet to be born, theGovernor said, they must beinitiated into the "tradition ofunstinting generosity by thosewho bear the mantle of leader~ip in our present day sO,ciety."

And love,if it is true, seeks union, So ourprayer for unity cannot stopwith yesterday's conclusion--ofaweek of speci!!l intentions.

This is the Church, the ship,the safe ship, which Christ ourLor d , Himself her' captain,leader, . head, preserves fromevery Storm and ,every threat. Acommunity of faith, for, as theGospel tells us, failure of faithendangers its existence. And acommunity of love, as the Epistleteaches.

TrialThe ,Devil ~,Passed' on,.. \
If such b~ one 'of his abilities, the devil must 'ha~ebreathed a sigh of relief rece'ntly to learn that he 'hasbeen allowed to remain in the Anglican cateChism' for atrial period of several years.
It seems that he has been running into' some opposition/, lately, with men of religion, clerical and lay, of that denom
ination all' for banishing him not only from heaven buteven from hell. These feel that he is no longer fashionable,that he is no longer believable; indeed-and they, to theircredit, are not afraid to proclaim it-they feel that he justdoes not exist. '
What a cruel blow to the devil. What-if the expressioncan be used-a hell of a thing to do to him.
It is bad enough for, men of goodwill to oppose him.It is to his benefit if they ignore him and pretend he isnot around. But when they go so far as to deny his existence, even he must resort again to Scripture to prove hisexistence.
Fortunately, 'cooler and Scripture-filled heads havesaved the Qay, and young Anglicans will be introduced tothe devil in their catechism, at least for several more 'yearswhen the question will be reviewed again.
This is symptomatic of the tendency that is' by nomeans new in the field of religion and morality. There wasa time when a man who ca~e face to face with a dogma ora code that offended him would simply say, "To hell withthis." Now he says there is no hell so "this" does notexist.
It may 'be a more polite way of acting. But it is adenial of truth.
And -in the interest of truth, the devil himself mustbe at' ease to know he has passed this latest'test-even
, if on trial.

The uninitiated comfort themselves in the face ofgovernment policy with the assumption that those in highplaces know more about situations than the ordinary manin the street. Thu's, it is reassuring to credit officials withinformation not possessed by the mere interested citizen.And the decisions of these officials-decisions which attimes are cause for wonder~areac~epted,as the wiseSt aridbest result of inside information and knowledge.'
But such rationalization, valid as it may be in manyinstances, cannot suppress the shivers of apprehension.. overthe sight, of the United States -government's forcing the
,pro-West leader of Laos to enter into a coalition with procommunist factions and to yield key posts in his cabinet tothese Red-aligned individuals.
It is true that the label used is not pro-communistbut neutralist. It is equally true that this label deceivesno one as to the fact it covers.
What is, the thinking behind such an act of thisgovernment? '
It cannot be that no one in Washington remembersthe same tragic policy tl).at was pursued in China in forcing the pro-West government into a coalition with the"agrarian land reformers"-a policy that invited the capture of several hundred million mainland Chines~ by the
. presently ruling Communists.Can it be that the United States is reconciled to the
loss of Laos to the communist camp, and would rather haveit go that way, by slow strangulation, rather than supportan all-outfight by the pro-West government, or send American material and men to uphold that government?
It is unthinkable that anyone in' an official positionin the government really believes that such a coalition willsolve the Laotian problem and bring peace to that countryand to all of southeast Asia.
Perhaps this country is following in this mattet anattitude that some political pundits have detected recentlyin the actions from Moscow, a tendency to drift, to delay,to avoid the hard stand and thus gain time.
But the citizens of the United States have a right toknow what is the thinking behind the government's stand.And all the more so when the stand is one that seems foredoomed to disaster.

mind that grows with age.The saying that "God knew
what He was doing when Hegave children only to the young"is borne out in your attitude.Certainly the young parentsseem adaptable enough to prayin spite of the interruptions, justas they manage their days andnights surrounded by childishintrusions.
Even though there are twoMasses, probably the father andmother thoroughly enjoy goingto Mass together and want to
. make church going a part oftheir children's earliest experience
As a solution for baby care,in many large parishes there isa "crying room," a soundproofroom where Mass and baby sitting can be accomplished simultaneously. In other parishes,high school and college girlstake care of children while parents attend Mass.
You ask if we took our children to Mass when they weresmall. The answer is yes andno, as I'm sure it must be withmost parents. I'm afraid we wereguilty of annoying people all toooften, though we did try to keepbothersome baby conduct to aminimum by sitting near an exitand taking along something tokeep the baby amused until heor she was old enough to use asmall child's missal with picturesof what the priem was doing.
A Mass, even a low one,canbe a tiring experience for a smallchild. Perhaps Benediction is abetter introduction to churchgoing. It is short, and childrenlove the music, candles, the mo-tion and the incense. •
As for what you can do: Iremember so well a neighbor ofours, long since gone to heaven,who volunteered now and thento stay with our children, "so

Come to' think of it, .thesemany years' later, - maybe ourkids bothered her in. church!

WigglyYoungst~rsat Ma~s',CanBe Real D'istraction to Others
By Mary Tinley Daly .Dear Mrs. Daly: What 00 you think about a young
couple who insir;t ot:J. taking their two small children toMass with them? They are neighbors of ours and I don'tlike to 'say anything to them but, honestly, those childrenare the most distracting element in the church. Firston'e will crawl all over her .mother and father, thenmake for the people in the pewahead and the pew 'behind. Assoon as theyhave her subdued, her bro'ther will startthe fireworks.They are abouttwo and threeyears old. Theytalk out loud,they point tothe priest, makeremarks aboutth e "funnnyman, Mommy"and about "the lady with thebig hat."
They even escape from thepew now and then and the parents have to chase them andbring them back to start thewhole monkey business all over.Sometimes I wish they'd chasethemselves out the front door.
I know this doesn't sound veryChristian, Mrs. Daly, but today Idon't feel very Christian. Notwhen it comes to kids in church.
i have hinted to these neigh-. bors, saying that it must be veryhard to get babies up anddressed and fed and then takethem out early in the morning.(We live in a small place where
,there 'are only two Masses.),;However" since there' are twoMasses, I should think that theparents could take t~r~s babysitting with the 'children athome, arid let the rest of us prayin peace.
, These aren't the only two di..·tractors - a lot of other youngparentS offend the same way but I mum say these are theworst. One time I was so annoyed I spoke to, the priest aboutit but he's a jolly sort and hejust laughed and said somethingabout "Suffer the Uttle chil-dren ...". ''That's all well and good but
rll bet Our Lord didn't meanthat they should disturb a wholeeong!egation. - .
Did you take your children tochurch' when' they were small,Mrs. Daly? If you should writesomething about it in your column it miglit do some good because the mother in· questionreads your column. .
I really like this young coupleand their children, believe it ornot. The children aren't reallybad, but to my way of thinking,THEY DON'T BELONG INCHURCH.
Please don~ use my, name oreven initials.

ST. LOUIS - Sodalitiesmust maintain their flexibility if they are to meet theneeds of their members and¢. society, diocesan sodalitydirectors from all over the U. S.agreed here.
Directors from 24 dioceses attended the annual meeting ofthe National Diocesan SodalityDirectors' Conference, held tomap plans for the future of thesodality move~ent in the U. S.
Adult MenAmong the subjects treated at
the meeting was the formation ofadult men's sodalities, a relatively new development in this country.
Father Joseph MacFarlane,S.J., of st. Louis, national sodality promoter, said sodalities havebeen organized among professional men in nine cities-Bos.ton, New York, Chicago, Cleveland, Washington, D. C., Philadelphia, Newark, N. J., Buffalo,N. Y., and Detroit.
ProfessionalsMembers are drawn from such
fields as medicine, law; engineering, advertising, chemistry andsocial work.
Father MacFarlane describedthe meeting as "the greatestshow of unity in years" in theU. S. sodality movement.
"-There was agreement that thesodality must adapt itself to allkinds of circumstances, that itmust preserve its flexibility," hesaid.
CombineThe Jesuit added that the
sodality directors are convincedthat laymen must combine theirspiritual lives and their occupations, rather than trying to separate them.
"You become apostolic by being better professionally, by being a better lawyer or doctor ornew~paperman," he said. "You
. do it by bringing Christ intoyour environment."

Paths to PeaceIn 45' Seconds. SAN FRANCISCO. (NC)-In

"There can never be worldwide peace . . .. if men do notrespect the authority of God, ourCreator.

"There can be no family peacewhen the members of this basicsociety fail to respec't 'each otherand when 'parental authority isspurned. '
"There can be no personalpeace when individuals do notrecognize any authority that hasthe power to make a law or givea command to bind the conscience of the individuaI."
Bible Bond
Father Abbot declared that"there are other Catholics,priests and theologians amongthem, who pray and work for thereturn of Protest.mts to unionwith the Church, but with allgood intentions in the world,they keep bypassing the Biblein order to stand on dogmaticpropositions that Protestants maytake or leave."

WASffiNGTON (NC) -:..A priest-editor warned here \,that there are "supermili-

Such Catholics "see nothing inProtestantism but heresy," saidFather Walter M. Abbot, S.J.,feature editor of America, na-.tional Catholic weekly revieW'.
The Jesuit priest asserted in'a sermon at Unity Octave ceremonies in the National Shrine ofthe Immaculate Conception. thatthe response of such Catholics toProtestantism "is hostile, aggressive, sometimes pugnacious."
Bigots
"These supermilitant Catholic!! .reject the charge that they are
, bigots," Father Abbot continued."For them the Christian unity,movement is warfare, with unconditional surrender to theCatholic Church as the only outcome.
"If you see it in any otherterms-for example, if you advocate understanding, discussiorfsand neg'otiations with Protestantsas brothers-they call you a com- .munist or a member of what theyrefer to as the 'world c,onspiracy.'
"It seems to have made no impression on them that the Cardinal (Augustin Bea, S.J.) whohas been placed in charge ofthese matters by the Pope saystheir response to Protestantismis an 'extremist' attitude. . . Ifyou are not a cardinal and yOJ1try to tell them the same thing,they accuse you of placing theone true Catholic Church on alevel with 'those other chuches.' "

Sometimes God permits us' to meet perSonally benefactors ofThe Society for the Propagation of the Faith 'who ,have madesmall claily sacrifices over a long period of time. It Is invariablytrue that those who are coustant in' the sacrificial spirit arethose who are ab'lOrbed in bringing hearts and souls to Christ In 'the Eucharist. Let your' glvmg, then, be dictated Dot 'only by adesire to feed bodies•.Let It arise' froin a yearning to bring theBread 'Of' Life to dJirist-starvedsouls.' Only when your life ofFaith Is deeper thlin 'yoUr emotional life will both hungers ofthe mission ,world be eODque~ed. .

Our adclress: TheSociety for the Propagation of the Faith, 366 Fifth Avenue,New'York 1, New York. '
Here in the United States there is practically DO physicalhunger; in the rest of the world, there is intense physical hunger.In one diocese of India alone, some 8 million '"untouchables" do not average a bowl of ricea day. While the mission world is dying ofphysical starvation, our glutted Westerncivilization, is dying of spiritual starvation.It is bodies that are thin int/he East; it isso~ that are emaciated in the West.
The HoI,. Father has to take 'care ofboth physical and spiritual hunger. That·is why the Missions maintain hospitals.dispensaries and leper colonies In variousparts of the world. But, The Society ,forthe Propagation of the Faith implies firstthe giving of the Faith. It is not only thegrain of wheat that must be brought to the .starving; they mUlilt receive the Eucharist!
Why is it much easier to induce people to give to the hungry,the sick and the starving rather than it is to induce them tosacrifice to make converts and to spread the Redemption C?f theCross? It is 'because emotions are involved at the sight of starvation,whereas F'aith' is involved' at the I sight of paganism. The picture ofa leper makes us feel what we' would like to do, but the sight ofa ,sinner or a pagan or a Buddhist does not always dictate whatwe ought to do. Many dQ not act' until their feelings, bave beenexcite.d. Cons~quently, support of the Missions is too often sporadic,uncertain, dependent upon emotional reactions to emotional appeals.

Thousands of Students in DiocesanHigh Schools 'Pounding the Books'For Important Mid-Year Exams
By Clement J. DowlingMid-year exams have cast a 'subdued and studious
.atmosphere over the 12 Diocesan high schools. Social andextra-curricular activities are'at a minimum as thousandsof students, intent on conquering the semi-annual scholastiechallenge, are pounding thebooks and sharpening theirmemories. School halls re.sound with the' hum of conversation centered on thoughtsof mathematics, English, foreignlanguages, history. science andother subjects. Students' are apprehensive as to severity ofexams and wonder If they're wellenough prepared.
Awalt Results ,Teachers have a mid-year look
too. They seem more reservedand businesslike. Inwardly,they are as concerned as students.They hope the results of theirwork for the first half year willproduce good marks. They wonder if their efforts since September have been productive andcreative. They pray that theirstudents will show the hardwork and cooperation needed tomllture their young' and ferHeminds.
At home, parents have beencutting down on TV and radio toprovide an environment condu- .cive to study. They too are a~
important part of mid-years andthey hope and pray .that thishurdle will be surmounted.
Some, who still have a working knowledge of their highschool subjects, lend active aid.
Results will be awaited withanxiety and hope. Teachers andparents share the youngsterseagerness and the reward of allwill be the pride of achievement.

Unity Eff(Q)~MONTREAL (NC)-The
description of non-CatholicChristians as "separatedbrethren" is not a merepious platitude but expresses aprofound truth about their relation to the Church of Chris~
Paul Emile Cardinal Leger saidhere.. The Archbishop of Montrealsaid baptized non-CatholicChristians "have certainly thatunion with Christ which begins
, 'at Baptism" but they lack "complete and perfect union with theMystical Body."
"The expression ·'separated'brethren' -is no pious tag' orempty formula, but the description of a real and profound truth'which involves our whole thinking on the subject," CardinalLeger said. '
"It is only by helping them tofulfill that real brotherhood and
.~ discover its true meaning thatwe may hope to overcome thedifficulties which still divide us,"be added.
'Supernatural Enterprise'Cardinal Leger, preaching at
8 Mass marking the 10th anniversary of the Catholic InquiryForum here, urged increasedefforts by Catholics on behalf ofreligious unity. He concededthat unity is a "supernaturalenterprise" in which men cannot be the "principal agents."
"But if we cannot achieve itthrough human efforts alone, wecan at least not hinder it through
, lack of charity, lack of under,standing and a faulty sense ofproportion in stressing the nonessentials in our holy religiones if they were essentials," hesaid. ', "We can prepare for it and do
everything to make it possible,removing as far as we can allhuman obstacles that we ,couldset against God's operations anddisposing ourselves as Catholic
.' Christians to be the instruments, "of the peace of God." ,
~,':," Positive lInsights::" Discussing the positipn of non, Catholic Christians -in relation to,~he Church, the Cardinal, de-
.:"'clared that the leaders of the"Protestant Reformation "were"riot altogetl;J.er' without genuine

. :' they clung' firmly, for instance,to their positive insight that each
',:"~d eyery Christian soul has a":direct access to God, a living' and'personal relationship with their
, 'Saviour Jesus Christ," he said.. Cardinal Leger noted that the
Catholic Church alone has "the 'full and final revelation of God's
~. truth." He said it follows fromthis that "all religious truth thatis really true is Catholic truth,even when that truth is held outside the Catholic Church."
'Part .of Treasury'\ . "The positive insights of the'reformers, therefore, insofar asthey are true and valid, areCatholic truths," he said.
Many of the "values" of ~on:'Catholic Christians are really"part' of the treasury of, theCatholic' Church," he continued.
"The tragedy is that 'our separated brethren have failed to
. recognize these values in Cath- . ,olicism. Perhaps we state themin terms they find difficult 'tounderstand and in it theologicalidiom which is unfamiliar to '

First Hand Training
The college estimates eachstudent's achievement in termsof the progress she makes towardthe development of her powers.Grades, as such, are not stressed.Assimilation of what has beenlearned and mental growth are.
Since the college is a socialunit for preserving and fosteringdemocracy, it aims to developpowers of self - governmentamong the students. Built arounda well-coordinated system of student government, which functions through the student bodywith the help of a Student-Faculty Liaison Committee, theideals and regulations of theCollege are upheld and a responsible corps of campus leaders isdeveloped. .

Saint Joseph College; West Hartford,'OifersOutstanding Curriculum on 'Lovely Ca~"pusSain.t Joseph College, West Hartfprd, Conn., is one of ~he fastest growing Catholic
four-year liberal arts colleges for women in New England. Founded in 1932 by theHartford Sisters of Mercy, a religious congregation with 110 years of educationalactivity in the state, the student body has grown, from 63' undergraduates and 15faculty to a student population of 1002 with 63 religiousand lay teachers. Diocesangirls at the college includeJoan Macomber, Fall River,Spanish major; Mary Bailey,Chatham, home economics major; and Joanne Flynn, Taunton,child study major.
Construction has kept pacewith expansion. Beginning withtwo massive three-story Georgian-Colonial buildings morethan a quarter century ago, thecollege added two student residence halls in 1955, a $624,000library building named afterPope Pius XII in 1960, and ispresently completing a large student dormitory, faculty residence, . and a splendid studentunion at a total cost of '$1,500,000.
By early 1962 the' college will'have eight .of its 11 projectedbuildings.
Although physical expansionhas been a necessary preoccupation, the administration hasplaced even greater emphasis onthe quality of its teaching.
This insistence on standardshas built an enduring reputationfor excellence in the liberal arts.It is also reflected in the highnumber of doctoral degreesamong the faculty, some 53teachers having this degree.

Movement MostSignificant E"ent
ALEXANDRIA (NC) The movement toward unionof separated churches wascalled the "most significantreligious event Since the Reformation" by a Jesuit specialist inecumenical affairs.
Father Gustave Weigel, S.J.•professor a.f ecclesiology atWoodstock (Md.) . College, a,Jesuit seminarY, spoke to some450 persons at Blessed Sacramentparish hall here in Virgin~.
His appearance was a highlightof joint Catholic-Protestant observance of a "Week of Prayerfor Christian Unity" parallelingthe traditional Catholic observance of the Chair of Unity Octave, which concludes today.
Representatives of 13 Alexandria . area Protestant churchesand numerous individual 'Protestants were among those whoheard Father Weigel, speak on"Protestant-Catholic Relations inthe U.S.A."
. Offer FrieJlldsllipFather Weigel told bis au<ll
enee that "all needless hostHi,ties" betWeen Catholics andProtestants ·are melting away."Today we look upon each other,with kindly eyes. We reach outour right band in friendship," hesaid.
The priest foresaw no immediate chances for Catholi~Protestant reunion, but added that"we all have to live in the hopethat He who wanted one churchwill make one church."
Among obstacles he sees in theway of better Catholic-Protestant relations in the UnitedStates are Church-State relations-"here Catholics must do mostof the work for we have notclarified our own position"-andparochial schools - "not theirfinances, but simply our need forthem. which Protestants don'tunderstand."
Father Weigel also said thatthe Catholic viewpoint 00 birthcontrol and censorship "does notfall 100 well on the majority ofProtestant Americans."
The other maj or event in theobservance will be a panel discussion today on "The Nature ofthe Unity We Seek" at the FirstChristian Church of Alexandria.Participants are a Catholic priest,.an Episcopalian clergyman anda Presbyterian minister.
Protestant Praises·Mater et Magistro
'ELM GROVE (NC)-A Protestant theologian has praisedPope John's encyclical "Materet Magistra" as "one of the mostsignificant papal pronouncementsof modern times." ,
Dr. Jaroslav Pelikan,' a professor at the University of Chicago divinity school, said the encyclical is "a genuine attempt tomake the message of the Churchcontemporary arid relevant to theis'sues of today."
Its "most striking feature," headded in an.article in CountryBeautiful 'mag;lzine publishedhere, is its effort 'to ."address themoral and spiritual problems ofan industrial technological society."
to find it unacceptable to themajority. .
She became the ally and c0
worker of her fellow Scot, Rob,.ert Owen, and it may have been,under his influence that shecommitted the blunder of openlyadvocating a system of free love,or at least "extra-legal matrimony."
Frankly Anti-ChristianIn the '30s she married a
Frenchman who shared her ideas,but the compatibility was not
.enduring. In her' later years,spent largely in New York, shedevoted herself to the advocacyand promotion of her scheme ofsecularizing American education.
As a convinced materialist,frankly and militanUy antiChristian, she openly sought theelimination of all religious influence in the public and state-supported schools. There is litUequestion but that her mark wasmade on the system adopted byNew York within a few years ofher death in 1852.
state Schools"I was for a brief time in her
confidence" Brownson continued, "and 'one of these selectedto carry into execution her plans.The great object was to get ridof Christianity, and to convertour churches into balls of science.
"The plan was ,not to makeopen attacks on religion, although we might belabor theclergy and hring them into contempt where we could; but to,establish a system of state-wesaid national - schools, fromwhich all religion was to be excluded, in which nothing waS tobe taught but such knowledgeas is verifiable by the senses; andto which all parents were to becompelled by law to send theirchildren."
Setting a pattern for all sub-'sequent educational tyrants,Frances wrigJit and her cohortsenvisioned taking the child fromhis parents at the earliest.pos-
. sible age, and rearing, him atstate expense as a complete, secularist.
How far in actuality' herscheme was .given a respectfulhearing, how many propagandacells were organized, Brownsondoes not say, for'he parted eom-'pany With the group about 1830,long before her career· hadreached its climax.
Dewey the FlowerHe was convinced, however,
that her influence was far-reaching and was a principal factorin the gradual secularization ofthe public schools.. . "It would be worth inquiring,if there were any means of accertaining,' how large' a sharethis secret infidel societY, withits members all through thecountry, unsuspected by the public ... have had in giving her theextraordinary impulse'to godlesseducation which all must haveremarked since 1830, an impulsewhich seems too strong for anyhuman power now to resist."
If John Dewey was the flowerof the new dispensation; FannyWright was its root.
fCalVfi ~owerr ~MBncdlMembers of the Catholic Guild
for the BI~nd, Fall River region, .will hold their monthly meetingnext Sunday in Sacred Heart'School. The meeting will be preceded by Rosary and fl~ . ~dictionin the church at 2:15 P. M..
Who remembers Fanny Wright? Not many on a wager,although there was a time, better than a century ago, whenshe was the most controversial woman in America. Shedefied the conventions of her era, appeared bold as brasson public lecture platforms(which no lady should everdo) , and advocated, alongwith emancipation, femaleand ~olored, even more startlingproposals, sucb as the abolitionof the bankingsystem and thepromotion offree love. Atough - mindedla d y, surely,but not altogether attractive.Orestes
Brownson knewher well. In thedays before hefought his way
• into the Catholic Church he wasthe intimate and confidant ofhalf the intellectual blue-stockings of New England and NewYork. Soon after her death hepaid her the oblique tribute ofsaying that she was the brainsand inspiration behind the mainattack on Christianity in thepublic schools of the UnitedStates.
He so expressed himself in anaddress given before the Philo
. mathian Society of Mount St.Mary's College, Emmitsburg,Md., on June 29, 1853.
Like so much of Brownson,who was beyond question one ofthe prime"miiuls of the 19th century, this lecture, a magnificentpel'formance, might have slumbered on in 'the pagel! of the collected Works, save' for the keen.eye, of Father Robert I. Gannon,the former president of FordhamUniversity. who reelills it in hisurbane memoir of his educational career, The Poor Old Lib-era' Arts. .
, Regrets Association-"It is not without design,"
Brownson told the young menof his audience, "that I havementioned the mime of Frances~right, the (avorite pupil ofJeremy Bentham, and famousinfidel lecturer' through oureountry, some 20 years ago; forI happen· to know, ~hat maynot be known to you all, that sheand her friends were the greatmovers in the scheme of godlesseducation, nOw the fashion inour· country.
"I knew this' remarkablewoman well, and it was myshame to share, for a time. manyof her views, for which I ask
...' pardon of God and my country. men."
She was born in Scotland in1795, and became a wealthyorphan as a child. Rebelliousagainst the authority of herfoster-parents, who seem to havebeen kindness personified, sheinsisted upon forging her owneducation, though it may be anexaggeration to say that she wasBentham's favorite pupil.
Once of age 'she elected tocome to America, first as an appreciative visitor (her inevitable
. travelog was a refreshing relieffrom the ruck of British diatribesagainst all things American), andlater as a permanent resident.
'Extra-Legal Matrimony'Having impressed the fairly
Impressionable General de Lafayette, she accompanied him,willynilly, on his tour throughthe States in the 1820's causing amild sensation.
ConfidenUy she prescribed forthe ills of the nation, pouring hercounsel into the receptive ears ofJefferson and Madison, amongothers. She produced a solutionfor the slavery problem, based,not unexpectedly•. en compensated'relocation, and was grieved

Undesirable PolicyThe authors are also opposed
to this formula for other reasons.They think that a uniform wagepolicy does' not allow for suHicient diversity in the movement,of wage rates. And. they arguethat 'voluntary restraint in' thedetermination of 'prices andwages is not a workable policyin the long run and is not evendesirable.
I don't completely agree thatvoluntary restraint in the settingof wages and prices is not desirable. They may well be correct,'howc:ver, in stating that such apolicy is not workable over thelong run. But if so, where do wego from here? Their answer isthat there ought 'to be an annualLabor-Management Conferenceon' 'the P,-:esident's EconomicReport.~ ~'The objective of this Confe,r
ence," they say, "should be to'share information among leaders'of government, labor and management and to develop a deeperun'derstanding of economic proc-
,esses, especially as these are ,related to union and company ,policies in collective bargaining."
I would like to see a series of,such meetings at the level of in,.dividual industries or:trades. Iam 'not tertain,' howev,er, that Ifully understand the reasoning
" which led the CEn, study groupto' put their hopes in' such' aConference.
Government Restraint, , 'Why go to the trouble of trying
to develop a deeper understandirig on the, par,t of labor andmanagement of nationaleconO,niic processes unless it' will enablethe two parties to exerCise restraint in their demands if:, itis demand'ed by the commongood?
Are labor and managementsupposed to file all the information they acquire at a Conference-or use it in the' interest of thegeneral we"lfare?
If not the latter, they ,will liveto rue the day for, in the absenceof a minimal degree of self-restrainton the part of labor andmanagement, the government islikely to clamp some 'stringentre-straints on the two parties.This they ought to try to avoid atalmost any cost. .

I anticipated then that the delegates would qualify this corp.mi'tment. This they did in a resolution 'on national economicpolicy. They made it clear thatthey intend to press for substantial wage gains in 1962,' contending i'hat most employers are ina position to grant sizable, wageincreases arid still make a handsome profit without raisingprices.
Would'Resent EnforcementThere is no way of, telling at '
this 'point whether or notorgimize::l labor will succeed in raisingwages substantially during thenext round of negotiations. It isalmost certain, however, thatlabor would fight back very vigorously if the Administrationwere to try 'to enforce its produc-'tivity formula. ' .
At present, of course, there is,no~ indication "that the 'Administration intends to force the issue.Secretary Goldberg has alreadyindicated that "there is plenty ofroom" for wage increase - insome industries' at least-withinthe limits of the productivityformula.
The theoretical"question arises,however, as to whether or notthis formula is valid in 'theoryand workable in practice. On thesurface, it looks like a fairly sensible approach' to the problem.But many competent economistsand labor relations experts oppose it on ethical as well aspragmatic grounds.
Present Sharc BasisThe ethical argument against

The' authors of this study-acommittee of nine nationally recogl1lzed authorities in, the fieldof labor-management relationspoint out that "The proposal tokeep the price level stable and tokeep wage increases in line withchanges in output per man-hourlogically implies acceptance ofthe proposition that the wageeal'ner's present share of nationalincome is correct and should notchange.
"When this implication' ismade explicit, we do not believeit will command the support of~

Collegiate Conference
Outside the collegiate ranks,the Stonehill hoopmen were defeated by the New York AthleticClub, a squad composed of someof the country's top college starsof recent years. Gotham fanswere surprised to see the Chieftains trailing by only five pointsat the end of three periods ofplay.
