Problem of Change. The Directory states that themain problem of teaching thefaith is found not only in theworld but within the Church it­self. The reason for this, as theCouncil teaches is that change is'everywhere engulfing what hadalways been the traditional aridthe accepted.

Bishop Blesses ~NewlSt. Francis Church·

St. francis of Assisi Church inNew Bedford has a proud heri­tage. It serves primarily the com­munity's Italian residents, and istlie city's westernmost CatholicChurch.

It is also known as the ItalianChurch, and the "little church onMill Street."

St. Francis of Assisi has hadits memorable days, like June 3,1928 when it was dedicated afterthe parish had been formed withthe blessing of the late MostRev. Daniel F. Feehan, Bishop ofthe Diocese of Fall River. Thechurch, located at Mill and New­ton Streets, formerly was theproperty of the First EvangelicalChurch Society.

At its dedication as St. Fran­cis of Assisi Church- it was saidthat from "the number of Italian

tory recognizes the possibility of­legitimate experimentation.

"However," he added, "the Di­rectory follows substantially thedirectives of St. Pius X regardingthe age of reason for childrenbased on the fact that sins ofchildren may be little sins, butthey are still, sins."

Two-years in te making, theDirectory was compiled by thereligious instruction committeeof the Congregation of theClergy, in collaboration with

, catechetical experts from, numer­ous bishops' conferences. Beforefinal approval by Pope Paul VI,the Doctrinal Congregation re-

One expert who studied theLatin text of the Directorystressed that the current practiceof allowing children to foregoconfession before receiving Com­munion is "the only modernproblem of catechesis given de­tailed attention" in the entire,directory.

The Vatican issued at a newsconference recently a general,catechetical directory that raisesquestions and· tries to supplysome' of the ,answers to complexproblems .of teaching the faithin a jet-age world.

One of the specialists Jrom 'several nations who worked to­gether in writing it said the 124­page directory "is not. a text­book, most assuredly. is not acatechism, and makes. no pre­tense of being equally valid inevery corner of the world. Infact, it may raise more questionsthan it can answer."

Delegates to an, internationalcatechetical congress that willconvene iil Rome's Lateran Uni­versity from Sept: 21-25 willstudy the Directory in depth.They will find that one of themore advanced suggestionsfound in ari addendum to theDirectory is a return to thethinking of Pope St. Pius IXthat children of the age of rea­son (said to be seven) make theirfirst confession before their FirstCommunion.

Appeal for HelplessDearly beloved in Christ,

These days much is said aboutthe,so-called "Third World" and

.its inhabitants, the peoples ofLatin America, Africa and Asia.

. The seeds of our Faith have beenlong and deeply sewn in someareas of this "Third World;" oth­er regions have barely heard thename of Christ proclaimed. Phy­sical distress abounds in theseareas and it is'axiomatic that theproclamation of the Gospel canbear little fruit unless the miser­ies of poverty, disease and hun­ger are alleviated.

Annually on the last Sundayof June a special collection istaken up in parishes of the Dio­cese to assist programs of social-endeavor in Latin America andto facilitate the immense pastoraltask of caring for the Catholicmillions who inhabit our neigh­boring continent.

Pope Urges SickOffer Suffering

·For ChurchVATICAN CITY (NC) - Pope

Paul VI.urged the sick, lame andretarded present at his CorpusChristi Mass in St. Peter'~ Basil­ica "offer your sufferings for theChurch."

To the thousand or so patientsof Rome hospitals who sat inwheelchairs or reclined on stretch'­ers before him in the hugechurch, ,the Pope r~alled St.Paul's words on suffering: "Whatis lacking of the sufferings ofChrist I fill up in my flesh forHis BodY,which is the Church"(Col. 1, 24).

The Pope exclaimed: "Here issomething big and new: sufferingis no longer useless. If united toChrist's pain, our pain takes onsomething' of His expiatorypower, of His redemptive power,of His saving power."

In asking those who suff~r tooffer their pain for the Church,he added: "Yes, for' the whole

',Church and for this RomanChurch in particular. Perhapsyou know its needs."

Referring to the feast of Cor­pus Christi, which celebrates'Christ's p'resence in the Eucha­rist, Pope Paul described Com­munion as "the fusion of yoursuffering"with the suffering ofChrist.'" .

During' the Pope's Mass, ablind man read to the congrega-.tion from a scriptural text i~braille. Several other persons, in­

'eluding a" young boy, were·brought forward in wheelchairsto lead the congregation inprayer.

Pope Paul distributed Commu­nion' to more than 100 of thesick, while 10 ,priests were kept

'busy 'giving Communion to~ others.

The Vatican Congregation forthe Clergy released a set ,of eightfindings--on conscience, pastoralpractice and the teaching au­thority of the Church - in itsnon-judicial ,administrative -re­view of the case.

The congregation said Cardia'nal O'Boyle had fol1owed exist­ing norms of canon' lll.w in' han­dling the case and accepted thepriests' contention that tbeirStatement 'of Conscience had'failed to make clear their realintent.

Sch'ed~le for Summer Season

- Thomas- a Kempis

Charges PriestsPlot Invasion'BUENOS AIRES (NC) - The

Argentine government has ac­cused the Third World Move­ment of Priests of encouragingfarm workers to invade the citiesand paralyze them by blockingtraffic with their vehicles andtools.

Officials said the plot washatched during a May meetingof subversive groups from ninenations at Montevideo in neigh­boring Uruguay.

But Uruguayan authorities,who have been keeping a tight'surveillance on the Tupamarosand other guerrilla groups i11their country, said the charge"has little credibility."

An Uruguayan foreign, rela­tions official said this' is the sec­ond time in two years that Ar­

, gentine authorities have claimedthat groups in Montevideo areplotting against Argentina.

"It is about time they chooseanother place, like San Marinoor Andorra," he added., Both are' small independentprincipalities in Europe.

"There' are new people, newjobs; new insights into traffic onthe inland waters where we, inthe Church too, have. to get,moving," commented Father Mc-Donough. , .

Traveling with officers andcrew on a fow,boat,'the Redemp­to,rjst priest, a vet'e'ran of 25years 'as chaplain of the port ofNew Orleans , is hoping his ex­periences will help the apostle­ship develop methods of bringingthe C,hurch to inland waterwaysworkers.

this violence. rages, More goesahead with his own concerns.They are varied.

Wild ConsequencesHe has invented a machine,

which is called a lapsometer.·"With my little machine," ohewrites, "I can diagnose and treatwith equal success the morningterror of liberals and the' C)po­plexy of conservatives." The ma­chine discerns exactly the psy­chological disorder from which aperson- is suffering, and then can"weld the broken self whole."

Wonderful as this device' is,it has terrible potentialities forharm.- For one thing, it can some­how touch. off a disaster com­parable to an atomic bombing.In the wrong hands, it can pro­duce a catastrophe. Needless tosay, it does get into the wronghands. '

This is largely because More'sprofessional colleagues refuse to'credit his discovery. They at­tempt to humor·,him, try to per­suade him to resume his statusas a patient, and ignore any evi­dence that his claims are veri­fiable in fact.

A mysterious stranger;- on theother hand, takes More seriouslyand works tirelessly to get holdof a lapsometer. He finally suc­ceeds, with wild consequences._

:Roles DuplicatedThere is an' epilogue, laid five

years after the events describedin the main body of the book.This finds More impoverished,

,married to his nurse and withtwo children, and living in theswamp area where once theblacks were, confined.

The blacks now occupy. the­luxurious houses along the golfcourse, and enforce rigorous seg­regation. More, for example, hasonly a skimpy practice becausethe local medical society (allblack) excludes him, thus depriv­ing him of the hospital facilities.

More, it appears, has achiev­ed peace and contentment,butthe radical changes in societyhave brought people little of ei­ther. The new society is a mirrorimage of the old, with roles du­plicated in reverse, but no dis­orders eliminated or a~eliorated.

. Master of Fantastic I .

There is a serious element inthis' marvelously writt~n_novel,but it is mostly conveyed by thewry comedy of which Mr. Percyis a master. He is a master, too,of the fantastic,· because hisimaginings are simply a ,projec~

tion of pretensions now preva­lent.

He takes tendencies and POS"turings which .are increasinglyih vogue in our own day, andcarries them to what could betheir inevitable conclusions if notstayed.. A crazy nightmare, some may

say of his picture of the 1990s,but in fact this is what we maywake up to and have to endureunless we change 'course.

Riotous and frequently ribaldare the goings-on with which Mr.Percy fills some 400 pages. Thereare innumerable' sly touches,some hilarious dialogue, andsome brilliantly funny scenes oftumult and shouting..

.Heads Univer~ity ,SAN DIEGO (NC)-A 41~year­

old educator has been appointedthe first layman to serve as pres­ident of the University of San 'Diego. Dr. Arthur E. Hughes,Jr., vice-president and provost atNorth Arizona University, Flag­staff, was selected to head thediocesan-operated U1J)versity andits coordinated college for wom­en conducted by the Religiousof the Sacred Heart.

Memories of the future are the substance of WalkerPercy's new novel Love in the Ruins (Farrar, Straus andGiroux, 19 Union Sq., West, New York, N.Y.. 10003. $7.95).Most of them have to do with what one' takes to be the1990s The place is Louisiana,and the narrator is ThomasMore, a psychiatrist who isfar from being a saint. More'

is a patient as well as a doctor.He is generally regarded as atleast mildly mad, is hospitalizedfor a time, has attempted suicide.His only child has died aftera horrible illness. His wife hasdeserted him, then died. He is in­'volved 'with two young womenand attracted toward a third, hisoffice nurse.

He is a Catholic of sorts, ofa family with deep roots in En­gland and the Church there. Thedeath of his daughter and the de­parture of his wife led to his'drinking heavily and his neglect­ing his religious duties. But hisfaith has persisted, if twisted.

Noble TalkIn the 1990s, the Catholic

Church in America is riven intothree separate sects. All the.con­flicts in the country have growndeeper: that, for example, be­tween blacks and whites, thatbetween conservatives and liber-als. ,

,The factions are frequently atwar with one another, and a for­eign war, in Ecuador, has beenbleeding the nation for 15 years.

Noble talk abounds. Idealismis professed, atrocity is practiced.The university hospital to whichMore is attached, has a LoveClinic where sexual aberrationis promoted in the name of sci­entific research.

Old people are done awaywith in the name of humani-

" tarianism. Other enormities areas common and as mislabeled.

Varied Concerns;'-There is general breakdown.

No one is available to do repairs:automobiles, for example, arerun until they fail to function,when the are abandoned. Aban­doned, too, are shopping centersand other complexes where bat­tles have taken place.

But in some ways things goon as usual, in the very midst of,cnaos. Thus, in More's own com­munity, a golf tournament pro­ceeds despite 'an armed rising ofthe blacks against the whites. As

CLASS IN COOKING ASSURES CONTINUATION OF CUSTOMS

A little over three years St.Stanislaus Church in Fall Riverbuilt a beautiful new school andwent into debt for it. Today theyhave. ,paid off most of thatdebt through the hard work ofthe parishioners and their' pastorby utilizing every means possibleto raise this money, while at thesame time building pride in theirparish, and also in their ethnicculture.

This month' they have beenconducting classes in Pierogi­making for the younger membersof the parish, and any otherpeople that wanted to attend toinsure that the ancient art of

, making this Pol\sh delicacy wouldnot be lost.

Each year during July the peo­ple of St. Stanislaus have a festi­val at which, they sell thesepierogis (a dough-like coveringthat is filled with chopped cab­bage, potatoes or,other fillings)that have been made ~y the peo­ple of the parish.

Teach youngsters;For many, 'many years the

nuns fro'm the 'school and theolder women worked long hourspreparing the dough, rolling it'out, cutting, filling .and cooking.However, over the years manyof these same older women haveeither passed on' or become to aincapacitated to do this, at times,laborious job of making thou­sands of these filled specialties.

Realizing that the selling ofthese 'pierogis was an importantpart of the festival and realizingtoo that they 'didn't want thiscustom to disappear Sister MaryGerard· and some of the originalwomen who diq the cooking hitupon the 'idea of teaching theyounger members while at thesame time making their supplyfor the 'festival.

Good SamaritanAs we started off, I felt so

secure that God had answeredour prayers until I spotted a gasstation up ahead ... closed forthe night. My spirits flattened.Possibly our "good samaritan"hadn't realized how late it was.He drove past the closed stationwithout slowing down. Maybehe knew an "open all night" far­ther up the road.

We came to a second gas sta-tion , , . it too was closed. '

Our "good samaritan" pulledinto the darkened station and wefollowed. He junipedout of hiscar, took his keys from hispocket, unlocked the door,turned on the light, and got thekeys for the pump. He owned thestation!

As he was' filling our gas tank,the light from the station win.­dow seemed to make a haloaround his head.

The priests replied that theywill not comply.

Speaking on behalf of thegroup of priests, Father. Brady,a lecturer at St. Joseph's Train­ing College here, affirmed thatneither he nor his colleagues, will

, comply with the demand voicedby' the registrar general, who isin charge of the British census­taking.

Father Brady said that hisgroup would <1lso refuse to payany fines that might be leviedagainst them. Th~se ~ould run ashigh as $650 per person.

The law also provides for pos­sible prison sentences for per­sons refusing to fill in censusforms. '

, Father Brady said he and his'fellow priests hav~ asked for animpartial investigation of theircharges th!!t the administrationof the. law in strife-torn NorthernIreland is blatantly discrmina-

, tory.

They have suggested that agroup from outside Northern Ire­land....::ane that would be respect­ed by public opinion generally­be convened as an investigativepanel. ,

Still, the Directory contends,God has revealed Himself, Christis '''the fullness of all Revela-

What are the sources of cate­chetics, the directory asks. it an­swers:

"They are found in the -writtenand traditional word of God;they are more deeply under­stood and explained by a be­lieving people. under the leader­ship of the Magisterium of theChurch, the authentic teacher;they are celebrated in the liturgy;they shine forth in the life ofthe ~hurch and in the saints;they are made manifest in thetruly genuine moral valueswhich by the providence ofGod are found in the society ofmen.", .

That isto say, in this country at least,most commentators on ,the Apos­tolic Letter are happy about thefact .that "the Pope' .has prudentlyrefrained from trying to forrpu­late, from the top down,' a setof universal a~swers to problems

/ which, though they may be com­mon to all mankind, neverthelesstend 'to take on different formsin different regions of the worldand, for that reason, can only besolved in the ,light of local cir­cumstances and condit'ions.

The principle, thEm, is' verysound:, local solutions to localproblems analyzed "with objec­tivity" in the light of soundmoral standards and with dueattention being given to the sit­uation whieh prevails in eachparticular region or nation or

, locality'.' 'So far so good. The problem,

however, is this, that localgroups of Christians, despite thefact that the Holy Father hasdeliberately refrained from try-

, ing to suggest,much I.ess impose,, his own to-p-down solutions into

the text o~ the Apostolic, Letterand will' try to. demonstrate, byciting chapter and verse, thatthe Holy Father is definitely' on 'their side in this or that partic­ular local-controversy.

As a matter of fa~t,.'this pro­cess of attempt,ing to use theApostolic Letter ,in an effort .toscore debaters" points against theoppositiop in local c,ontroversiesis already off to a running start.

Seek Outside HelpIn Time of Stress

ATLANTIC CITY' (Nt) - AProtestant minister's best' friend,when he gets in trouble; is hiswife.

Unless, of, course, his problemis marital trouble, in·' which casehe does not hesitate to turn toprofessional counselors for help.But when his time' of stressstems' from his. vocation, likemost of his, colleagues he is re­luctant to seek outside help.

These are some of the findingsthat emerged from a study oncareer stress in the ministry, asreported 'to the. ,meeting of thegeneral board' of the NationalCouncil of Churches by the Rev.Dr: Edgar W. Mills, director ofthe NeC's ministry studies board.board. '

The findings were based on astudy' of some 5,000 clergymenfrom 21 Pr.otestant denomina­tions.

how to live peaceflllly in thislife. He gives them far more spe­

'cifie guidelines for living out hisideology than either their peersor Reich:- ,

It's no secret' that Jesus ispopular today. The ,Church isnot. The Church is Establishmentand, as such, is dismissed by theyouth. But that doesn't meanthey are dismissing Jesus and/orthe gospels. They are turning tobasic religion with an u'rgencytheir parents never did.

The new' Consciousness, ratherthan nullifying Christianity, isparalleling' a rebirth of· gospelChristianity. This may not be aCatholic or Methodist Christian­ity but a Back-to~Ghrist move­ment.

Instead of the greening ofAmerica we might be seeing thegreening of Christianity, a re­jection of structures standing in .the way of simple Christianity,Le. of the just war rationale; ofthe right to over-consumption;af man's right to pollute land, airand water simply because heowns them; a rejection ofchurch-sanctioned ideologies, etc.

Glar'ing InconsistenciesThis doesn't say youth is

living out these ideals. There areglaring inconsistencies in theCon III culture just as there arein Chrisianity. While loudly dis­claiming the use of dangerouspreservatives in food, for exam­ple, our young people willinglyuse drugs and decibels' whichcl,luse all kinds 'of nerve andhearing problems.

While loudly embraci!1g thelove ethic, they refuse to like'awhole segment of society, thoseover 30. So, like their elders,they merely end up loving thosethey.like.

Like Christianity,"Greeningof America," is uncomfortable.Like Christianity, it works a lotbetter on paper than' in people.But it shouldn't be dismissed 1,111that easily.

G.K. Chesterton' once said,"Christianity is a good idea. Toobad it's never been tried." May­be . ; . just maybe ... there are afew beginning to try it. '

ForJesus Gives, Guidelines

Living PeacefullyFor a solid month last Spring, every third friend ask-.

ed me, "Have you read Charles Reich's 'Greening of Amer­ica?.' " Finally, in self-defense, I read i~ and then I beganaskmg the same question of my friends. It's, that kindof book. But it's a dangerousbook, too, as, is every bookthat makes one think. ·Inbrief, for those who haven'tread it yet, Reich attemp'ts toset down and explain three levelsof consciousness ~hich have de­veloped in this country. '

There is Consciousness I: arationale and tife-style developedfor the frontier; ConsciousnessIi: developed' for the industrialstate; and now, ConsciousnessIII: 'developed for our highlytechnical society, a conscious·ness which is demanding a returnto the earth, to humanitarianismand to a life of inner peace andharmony.

Consciousness' III is an after­the-fact explanation of the life­style of our young people. It at­temps to explain their reluctanceto become part of the Establish­men't, their suspicion of all olderpeople, their abhorrence of w<!rand their distaste for 'meaning­less labor. It explains their' de­pendence upon drugs and musicand their independence other­wise.

So much for a brief and, Ihope, fair description of what theauthor attempts. His final chap­ter, the title chapter, refers toa potential renewal taking rootsin our country.

Dismisses ChristianityWhile reading the book, I had

an uncomfortable feeling thatthis has all been said before. AsI read I wondered if AuthorReich was going to mention 'any'similarity between the idealismot' Consciousness III and Chris­tianity.

I was rewarded. Near the end,he dismisses Christianity in lessthan a page by pointing out thatit hasn't worked because, ratherthan adopting it for its life-style,people ..practice Christianity forits rewards in another life. Theauthor thus dismisses the wholephilosophy as a viable part ofConsciousness III.

Basic ReligionI found this avoidance disturb­

ing. Reich doesn't discuss, theJesus culture today. Why areCon III kids who are rejectingeverything else labeled Estab­lishment, consuming the Jesusof the gospels? Not because Hespeaks of the rewards of eternallife but because He tells them

Missioners StressLay Responsibility

PHILADELPHIA (NC) - Theestablishment of parish councilsat 'all mission, outstations in'

.' northern Tanzania has' fostered agreater sense of lay responsibil­ity, a missionary bishop fromAfrica said.

Bishop Dennis V. Durning, fl.Philadelphian who has headedthe 'Arusha diocese' since 1963,said the new style in missionaryactivity is to have responsibilitiescenter on th~ local level.

Previously the missionaries de­cided whereto build the churchesand funds were provided 'fromoverseas, donations, the bishopsaid. .

"Now the initiative for build­ing' a church comes from' thelay, council at the mission sta-

. tion and, the responsibility forat least half the funds and for·all' of the construction or' .thebuilding rests with the people,"he said.;

People will sing 'only whenthey feel 'comfor!able and secure.

During the 10:30 AM. Massat St.' Ambroes Padsh in subur-.ban Cheverly, Md., taU 'kinds ofpeople sing - senior citizens,

Their type 'of muSic; h~wever,certainly enjoys official support.

At least' I wo.ulCl :interpret asimplicit endorsement: of it, thesefollowing words from the Sept.4, 1970, "Third Instruction on.the Corre<;t Application of theConstitution on the I Sacred Lit­urgy" from Rome's Congregation 'for Divine Worship.

"Ail means must i be used to'promote .' singing by'f the people;New . forms should be .used,which are adapted tb the differ­entmentalities and! to modernJastes: T,he bishops'1conferences'should indicate seleCtion of songs .to be ,used in Masse~ for special ,groups, .e.g., young: people. orchildre,n; the words, imelody alldrhythm of these 'songs,' and theinstruments used fbi"' accompani­ment, should correspond to thesacred character of :the celebra­tion and the place 6f worship."

There you see Paul dealingwith. the, mentality ot' his read-

At Cana, despite His Mother'sfeelings, He realized that His"hour" had not yet come. (In.2:4).

Much later He recognized theappropriate moment that .re­vealed His Father's will, realizingthen that, "the ~our has come forthe Son of Man to be glorified"(In 12:23).

At the Last Supper, as Herose to wash the feet of Hisdisciples, He "realized that the·hour had come for him to passfrom this world to the Father"(In 13:1).

.Jesus' teaching urges us toimitate His sensitivity to themoment of gra<:e.

In the parable of the wise andfoolish virgins Jesus teaches theconsequences of sensitivity andpreparedness for the moment ofHis coming and concludes:

"The moral is:, keep your eyesopen, for you know not the dayor the' hour" (Mt 25:13).

In words taken up· by the Sec­ond Vatican Council Jesus chidesthe crowds for being so muchmore sensitive to the signs ofchanging weather than to the"signs of the times" indicating'His presence (Lk 12:57).

He wept over Jerusalem be­cause the people had failed torecognize the moment of Hiscoming (Lk 19:44). .

They had been rigidly expect­ing God's coming in anotherway, and so missed the oppor­tunity of a lifetime.

Each tim'e we notice a photo­graph that captures' the uniqueinstance which reveals what tomost of us remains hidden, wecan recall that the Holy Spirit iswith us to make possible sensi­tive responsiveness to the mo­ments in life that reveal the pres­ence and activity of God in aspec!~1 way.

The Holy Spirit rs given tous to make po~sible the supple­ness, openness and flexibilitythat allows us to notice Him indaily life and to respond to Himwith freedom.

ment. One need only consultNew Testament Abstracts the all­inclusive interconfessional recordof current periodical literaturepublished 'three times yearly by'Weston College School of Theol­ogy, Cambridge.

I quickly found summaries of10· important articles on thispassage in the last 10 volumes.

There is' general agreem'intthat the passage is an earlyChristian hymn, most likely forthe baptismal liturgy, that it isa song of deep theology, that itspeaks of Christ in terms takenfrom the Wisdom books of theOld Testament (Job, Psalms,Proverbs, etc.), that the dominanttheme of the first part is Christthe Creator, or Christ as Medi­ator in Creation (15-18a), and ofthe second part' Christ the Re­deemer, or Christ as Mediator inSalvation (l8b-20).

Then come the disagreements.Some think Paul is the author

of the hymn, others that he tookan already existig hymn andadded certain phrases to it, stillothers that the hymn was tucked'into the letter not by Paul butby a later theologia!1 in thePauline tradition.

I think that, as far as :VOIl areconcerned, the dispute is a minorone, since it is probably enoughfor YOl\) that the passage is partof the sacred Scriptures, whoeverthe human author was, and thechief author, of course, was Godhimself.

There are interesting reasonsfor the dispute, however.

The scholars are trying tochart the development of theearly Church's understanding of

-Christ's person and work.They ask if what we read in

this passage came in Paul's life­time or later.

Some say the Christology inthis passage reflects presupposi­tions of Pauline' theology butthere are considerable differ­ences from the theology of themajor letters.

They say that in his hymnChrist is represented not onlyas head of the Church but alsoas head of all cre.ation and this

- cosmic view of Christ's rolegives Paul or his later disciplea deeper sense of the universal­ity of salvation since Christ'ssaving mission extends to allhumanity and to the wholecosmos.

It is curious that in all of thisdiscussion all the scholars holdthat ·the basic hymn is' an earlyone used by Paul or his disciple.Yet that basic hymn itself clearlyexpresses the mentality that cre­ation and the direction of the.universe began in the pastthrough the wisdom of God, andit continues though the wisdomof God and it continues throughthe presence of the same wisdomof God in Christ, the incarnateSon of God.

Cardinal ScoresRed Government

WARSAW (NC) - Poland's'Catholic Primate, Cardinal' Ste­fan Wyszynski, has told', hispeople that the new communistgovernment, though claiming itwants better relations with theChurch, is continuing to put ob­stacles in the way of such im­provement.

When the Gomulka regimewas brought down last Decemberin the wake of food riots,· thenew government said one of itsobjectives was to "normalize" itsrelations with the Church.

On March 3 Cardinal Wyszyn­ski met for three hours withPremier Piotr Jaroszewicz, andChurch sources issued a state­ment afterward declaring "pros­pects are taking shape for thegradual normalization of rela­tions... '

Speaking fu a Corpus, ChristiDay throng here, CardinalWyszynski noted that recent re­ports in the communist-con­trolled press have maintainedthat the Church must make th'ecompromises leading towardbetter relations. The cardinalr.eplied that the .governmentmust make the adjustments.

Defining the normalization theChurch seeks, Cardinal Wyszyn­ski said "we do not see it as ,adeparture from' God but a recog­nition of His rights and presence,and of the Church's right."

Opposed by the New Jersey, Catholic' Conference and other

Opposition to the measurestemmed mostly from a provision'for "no-fault" decrees-a divorceby mutual consent of the pa~t·

Plan Legisl,ationTo Curb ProfitsFrom Abortions

WASHINGTON (NC)-Privateabortion referral agencies havegrown into a multi-million dollarenterprise, particularly in NewYork state where some legisla­tors hope to pass laws to out- '

'law the agencies.The New York state Assembly

has given approval to a packageof bills which would make ille­gal any commercial, prolit-,making abortion referral service.

The bills would also prohibitindividuals, partnerships or cor­porations from making a profitby referring a pregnant womanto a health facility for an abor­tion.

Such businesses have reachedmulti-million dollar proportionsin New York state since thelast year's relaxation of thestate abortiqn law.

In Washington, D. C., tens ofthousands of leaflets are beingmailed to doctors in North Caro­lina, South Carolina, Virginiaand Maryland promising to makearrangements with a doctor inWashington to perform an abor­tion. The arrangement fee is 50dollars, in addition to what thedoctor charges.

Charges BlackmailThe Washington Post has de­

scribed Washngton as "emergingas a big-league abortion town,second only to New York in theEast." There are six Washingtonhospitals which perform· in­patient abortions. In the lastthree months two' private abor-

_ tiori clinic have opened.'The Planned Parenthood Asso­

ciation in WaShington says it istrying to discourage commercialagencies from, coming in andcharging large fees, for referralservices. The association saidit knows of one agency in NewYork which grossed $150,000 infive months.. .

College Newspaper AdsThe agencies are advertised

heavily in college newspapers.It has been estimated that the'agencies can make as much as125 dollars profit on each abor­tion through kickbacks from hos­pitals, clinics, and doctors.

Signs of friction have alreadysurfaced as a result of the adver­tising. In Michigan, an Episco­pal clergyman accused a .statelegislator of "legislative black­mail" when· the representativewarned Michigan's universitiesof the possible illegality of suchads.

The legislator, D.J. Jacobetti,was accused of intimating thatthe universities could be introuble when they asked formoney in the Fall.
