Form Association to Aid Attleboro Area Children
Inspired by Our Lord's assurance that "Whatsoever you do for these, My little ones, you do unto Me," a group of parents, teachers and therapists in the Attleboro area have formed an Association for Retarded'Children, affilitl.ted with the state and national associations.
Officers of the association are Mr. a'nd Mrs. Leon O'Brien and MI'. and Mrs. Frederick Proulx, who formed the iroup last January under the guiCiance of Michael Laurie of Newton. They regard the chil dren as exceptional, not only because they requIre exceptional care and kindness, but also because they lire the source of exccptional graces for those who care for them. All parents and friends of retarded children ar8 invited to join the association. '
Meetings begin with recitation of the prayer of blessing, composed by Bishop Connolly, on those who help retarded children. Included in group are Sister William Mary, Missionary Servant of the 1vIost Blessed Trinity; William Janse, teacher of the special g~ade at Willet School; Mrs. Lena, Mustillo, music teacher; Wilfred Lefebvre, physical director of Pawtucket schoo'ls, and members of the Missionary Cenacle Apostolate, conducted by the Siaters at the Holy Ghost Missionary Cenacle.
Cross of Christ Through their efforts valuable
aid has been given the children in the spiritual. social and intellectual fields. Facilities of the Attlcboro YMCA have been available for the children's physical improvement, and assistance has been promised by Dr. Adolf Bendel' and Dr. Everett Pierce of Attleboro.
Progress has been evidenced by six mongoloid childrcn pQl'tiCipating with their parents in physical therapy; 13 older girls now havc their own Girl Scout Troop; those who are old enough
Reds Deceive By Strategy,
WASHINGTON (NC) The American Communist party carefully staged its February convention to fool' Americans into believing it had broken with Moscow, the Senate Internal Security Sub-committee has charged.
The sub-committee said a stl'llWilY 'of "guile and deception" to trick tbe public was carefully planned, according to FBI Dil'ector J. Edgar Hoover.
The Senate unit charged that the convention ·"was used to pl'Omote the myth that the party no longer advocates overthrow of I{overnments by force and violence." thus hoping to thwart prosecution by the Dcpartment of Justice under the Smith Act.

Five Jail Inmates Are Confirmed
BishOp Connolly has administered the Sacrament of Confirmation to five men confined, in the House of Correction at New Bedofrd.
The ceremony marked the first time the Sacrament had been conferred in the institution.·
In his talk, to the newly confil:med, Bishop Connqlly pointed out that Our Lord indicate His care for men in instituting the Sacrament. Reception of Confirmation makes men Apostles, whose aim should be to do good for others as well as fo~ themselves, he said.
The Bishop pointed out that many people in the world are in trouble'and difficulty because they feel the world owes them a living. II). the face of injustice and crosses, they refuse to face up to facts, they do not aim high enough, and as a result their lives are not all God expects them to be.
The Bishop urged the recipients to have a more definite goal in life, reminding them that they have the Grace of God, Who
'expects something in return. 'Noting that it is easy to slip and feel sorry for oneself, the Prelate asked the men to set an ideal before themselves, to aim higher than ever before in their lives.
Very Rev.' Humberto S. Medeiros, S.T.D., Diocesan Chancellor, was master of cel'~monies.
Chaplains to the Bishop were Very Rev. Huga A. 'Gallagher, pastor of St. Janles Church, and Rev. John J. Mui'phy, assistant at St. Lawrence Church.
Rev. John F. Hogan, director of the Catholic Welfare Bureau of New Bedford and chaplain of St. Mary's Home, and Rev. John P. Driscoll, Episcopal Secretary. were seated in the sanctuary.
George Vigeant of New Bedford was sponsor.
Boys of St. Mary's Home served as altar boys and music was by members of St. Lawrence Parish choir.
In the congregation were Sheriff, Patrick H. Dupuis, Deputy Master Roy K. Holland and inmates. '

C~mmon Good So~e Basis For-Invading Plt~vacy
, By Donald Mc][)ionald
Davenport Catholic Messenger
, I think Mark BrandleI', the Ho!JywQod municipal, judge, made a bad decision the other day when he fined actor Anthony Franciosa $250 and gave him a 90-day jail sentence for kicking a Los Angeles newspaper photographer. . For all I know, Franciosa may be a first class cad, but that has nothing to do with the case at all.
Divorced from his first wife, the actor got himself engaged to actress Shelly Winters, also divorced. The two of them w ere p h o,t 0
,graphed by a Los Angeles Herald - Examiner press photographer a few days be for e
they went through their wedding ceremony.
Franciosa objected to being photographed by the Los Angeles newsman and reinforced his ob
\) Jections by roughing up the photographer. dam a gin g his camera and generally creating quite a disturbance.
Judge Brandler, In the subsequent court action, denied Franciosa's request to change his
, original plea from "guilty" to "innocent" and imposed the fine and jail sentence. '
Point Overlooked As I say, Franciosa may be just
an undesirable kind of fellow to liave around, but his protest, after receiving Judge Brandler's sentence, was right on the point that the Judge seems to have overlooked.
"This Is not justice," shouted Franciosa. "Who's going to protect me from people like him?" he' asked, referring to the news photographer. ,
I think that Is a very good question, nobody In the Hollywood courtroom tried toanswel' it.- -
By what right may a newspaper invade the privacy of an individual? If a per~on desires that his picture. or some element of his private life, not be' disclosed to the general public, on what basis maya newspaper, or any other communication medium, override the person's Insistence on privacy?
Cle'arly Necessary It seems to me that the only
legitimate basis for making public the private life of an individual Is' that such disclosure Is clearly necessary for the common good. When certain, features of the private life of a citizen are clearly and directly related to the common good. when' the knowledge of such private matters is essential to the safeguard. ing of the common good. then public disclosure Is not only permissible, It Is mandatory.
A newspaper's invasion of pri vacy cannot be justified merely on the grounds that such practice helps the' publisher sell his newspapers. It cannot be justified on the grounds that'-"the public wants" such material. Nor can It even be justified with the ritualistic appeal..to the First Amendment guarantees of a "free press."
Against the press' freedom to publish we have the Individual, citizen's freedom not to be published. And the only principle that can reconcile these .two
J j'reedoms with justice to both the press and the cl"Uzen is that principle that has reference 'to the common good. The question that the newspaper publisher J:/lmt ask himself is not a compli-cared Question, but I sometimes

wonder how many publishers are guided by it. The question is: "wm the pUblication of this story or photOgl'llPh - admittedly an invasion of a citizen's. privacy help 01" hinder the common goOd?"
Candidates for Office Let us take the citizen who Is
addicted to alcohol, or even one who is valiantly trying to overcome such an addiction. This individual 'enters the field of politics and finds himself running for an Important political position, one in which clear thinking, reliability and integrity are of. the utmost importance so far as the comJ:l1on good Is concerned. •
A newspaper ,may well decide that disclosure of this individual's aberration Is clearly justified under the circumstances. Another Individual with a similar problem, but with no such public aspiration or potentiality for great good or evil so far as society Is concerned, Is entitled to utmost privacy as he works out his particular problem.· A person' retains the' right to his reputation and good name so long as such retention does notsubstantially Injure the cOplmon' good.
Right to Good Name I fail·to see why entertainers,
simply because they are entertainers and in the public eye, lose their right to their good name. I have heard some' pUblishel's maintain that an entertainer forfeits the right to his reputation when his actions do not square with the reputation.' But If that be the argtlment for invasion of privacy, then who of .us, including newspaper publishers, wlll cast the first stone? Let u~ then have the full disclosure of all the vices. of all citizens, not forgetting the'vices of those parasites". the gossip columnists who make their living by the
,amount of scandal and salaclous'ness they ,can' find or insinuate.
Getting back to Franciosa, his quarrel should not, have been with the news photographer. It should have been with the employer- of the photQ!i-i·apher. 'The latter was simply' carrying out orders. But then It seems to me, the publisher, not Franciosa, should have been made to pay for the damaged camera, 'and he could have profited. too, by a little lecture on the social- responsibilities of a free press.

God Love You,I5
IBy Most'Rev. Fulton J. Sheen, D.D.
Mao, the Communist Dictator of China, has just admitted li quidating 800,000 of his people. This figure is perhaps only a fraction of those whose lives, like unripe wheat, have been untimely cut by the Communist sickle. Mao has said that the. Catholics amo~g
this number were not perecuted or liquidated, because of their rell 'gion, but because they were "unpattiotic". The same charge wa~ directed against Our Lord in the court of PUate: "Thou art not a fnend of Caesar." Now the name is Mao instead of Caesar. Even the f~rces
of evil know that the Faith is so sacred and thatit should be attacked under another name; just as, Judas knowing that Christ was the Son of God, prefaced his betrayal with a sign of affection,. the !lllstering kiss. '
There are two possible reactions to thisliql.lidatlon and persecution of the Faith: one, inspired by the·newspaper. the other' by the life of Christ. If the first, our reaction Is 0

Court's Anti-Obscenity Decisions Reaffirmed Public Morality
WASHINGTON (NC) . The executive secreta·ry of the National Office for Decent Literature said the U. S. Supreme Court lire-affirmed the concept of public moralIty" in its decisions upholding three anti-obscenity laws.
Msgr. Thomas E. Fitzgerald in a statement from his who wrote the majority opinion Chicago office, said also the ,for the two cases, said that "ob

definite standards which will aid both the government in determining positive procedures" to tight the problem of indecent reading material.
"In its rulings, the Supreme Court reafIil'med the concept of public morality that Is fundamental to a continuation of the American way of life . . . The cause of decency has been atrengthened," he said.
Another comment on the court's action came from Postmaster General Arthur Summerfield. A Federal anti-obscenity law prohibiting the mailing of Questionable material was olle of those upheld by the court.
Welcomes Decision "The Post Office Department
welcomes the decision of the Supreme Court as a forward step In the drive to keep obscene materials out of the malls," the Postmaster General stated.
"We have been doing our best vigorously to protect our peopleparticularly our young peopleagainst the effects of obscene publications which to a very considerable extent are sent into homes wit h 0 u t even beingordered." Mr. Summerfield said.
Abe McGregor Goff, who Is the Post Office solicitor or legal advisor to the Postmaster General and principal department officials, said in a statement the department now will be able to put more peddlers 'of lewd pictures and printed matter out of business as a result of the decision.
But he said the department .will not become a "puritanical censor" or do "anything unreasonable" because its hand has 'been strengthened by the decision.
Senator's Comment Sen. Estes Kefauver of Ten
nessee. chairman of the .8enate subcommittee on juvenile delinQuency. hailed the court decisions as a "sound move to protect our foung people" from obscene literature.
The Benator said too much lascivious material is being delivered through the mails and the court's rulings "may give us the gl'ound to close legislative loopholes involving this pel'lliclous literature,"
Who's to say what's obscene? This simple question has crip
pled man y efforts to deal effectively with the problem «If Indecent reading matter ilnd other lewd material, such a.q

scene material is material which deals wIth sex in a manner appeallng to prurient interest."
T t f Ob It 6S 0 seen y
The test for determining obscenity was given as: "whether to the average person, applying contemporary community standards, the dominant theme of the materlltl taken as a whole appeals to prurient intel'est," _
Who's to represent the "average person?"
The court cited the instructions of the trial judge to the jw'y in . one of the two cases before it, the challenge to the Federal antl obscenity law.
"In this case, ladies and gentlemen of the Jury," the judge had said, "YOU and you alone are the exclusive judges of what the common conscience of the community Is, and in determining that conscience you are to consider the community as a whole young: and old, educated and un~· educated, the religious and· the iITelllrious - men, women and children," ------------ ,.···············_-·····i

Supreme Court Bans Obscene Literatu~e
WASHINGTON (NC) - The nation's highest tribunal scored three telling blows against obscenity in literature.
"Obscenity Is not within the area of constitutionally protected speech or press," the U. S. Supreme Court ruled in upholding a Federal statute· which prohibits the mailing of indecent literature.
At the same time, the court declared valid a California law dating back to 1870 which makes it a crime to write. advertise or distribute Indecent literature, and also upheld a New York law which permits a court to bar the distribution of obscene printed matter.
Another decision by ihe Suprenw Court upheld by a 5..to-3 vote the "anti-strip tease" law of Newark, N. J. The court reaffirmed the decision handed down by the New Jersey Supreme Court.-

Constitution Assumes Moral Code Exists
SCRANTON (NC)-Convictlon of a Newton Lake, Pa., drive-in movie theater manager for showIng an obscene motion picture has been upheld by the Pennsylvania Superior Court.
Regarding the constitutional Issue raised, Judge Wright said that "the words used in the statute here under consideration have well settled connotations which can be applied by the exercise of ordinary common. sense and reason. Obscenity and indecency have always been con~
sldered ,offensive against the public whether covered by statiJtes 01' not."
The court held that Federal and State Constitutions assume that the moral code, which is part of God's order in this world, exist as the substance of ·soclety.
"The people of this State have aeted through their Legislatures on that assumption," J u d g e

Wright's decision asserted. "We have not cast ourselves so far· adrift from that end, nor are we so far gone In cynicism, that the word 'immoral' has no meaning for us. Our duty as a court is to uphold and enforce the laws, not to seek reasons for destroying them."

Speak f~r Decency , ~very newspaper, m~gazine and book publisher, every
radio, television and movie company is dependent upon' you for survival. Their business is to serve you.
You are the viewer, the customer. You hold the purse strings. You are the judge, you decide what to buy and w~t to ignore, what to view and what to shut of~, what ,to praise and what to condemn. , " You donlt go to the sponsors, they come to you, hat In hand, asking the privilege of your tiine and considera
/ tion for their product. ,They must take theif chances with you, they must depend on your judgment, your liking
, to be a success or a failure. If they are a.success, it Js due to you and they must be grateful. If they are a failure it Is due to you-they took their chances and didn't make the grade, and they can't cry about it. You h~ve noobligation to support them if you judge them unworthy.
Every minute that you spend reading or hearing or viewing, every dollar that you spend buying, can be a vote foror agaiRst decency. Your power to be selective in what you read and buy can be a decisive one. Your approval ,or disapproval can raise or lower the standards of literature and entertainment. '
Don't be afraid, then, to voice your approval of the good in television and literature, and to speak out qUickly against the vulgar, the indecent. A post card or letter to a sponsor with a werd of commendation or disapproval can mean a great thing to the cause of good.
It is amazing what attention a' sponsor pays to a post card or letter; We may underestimate its impQrtance; he never does. If no one wt'ites, he assumes that the program is being well-received. If one person writes in to complain in a well-balanced way, then J;le sits up and takes noti~. If one will write, then there are many more of the same mind. All these cannot be offended.
Make sure, of course, to be constructive and positive, ,not merely negative and critical. Give pointed advice on what you and your family want, what you enjoy, what you expect of the sponsor.
Is this censorship? Nonsense. It is' ~imply buying what you like and refusing to buy what offends you. It Is simply stating your preference. If the sponsor doesn't like it, then it is up to him to please you.
Fourth ·of July Independence Day means that we celebrate not only
our country's' independence from something but its inde,pendence for something. The Fathers of this country desired freedom from England so that they and their children could enjoy a way of life in peace and with, freedorri.
The air still rings with the Fourthot. July orators ,who have investigated and proclaimed on every aspect orfreedom and democracy., They have extolled the blessings of. freedom, and ri/thtly so, but freedom means free-:
,doni for something. Men must use their freedom wisely and for truth, else it becomes a stale concept. Independence means the right to live according to the truth and under a government that guarantees such a right.
Would it not be the' part of wisdom and' strictly in accord with our country's Constitution to teach to all children in all our schools, public and private; the truths for which this country sought its independence? This country was founded that men might have freedom for these truths:
God exists. Man was created by God. Every individual is of infinite value. All our rights come from God. All men inust obey the natural moral law implanted
In them by God. ' . The Ten Commandments are'binding upon aUmen)'
The 'government derives its authority from God. The purp9se of governmerit is the, protection of the
rights of individuals. ' ,'Are not these the basic principles for which this coun
''try was founded? Are not these truths in the tradition of ;iheD~clai'at1on of Independence, the 'Constitution of the :United ,States, the various Constitutions'o(the individual ;states? This is why we 'are free"-for these truths. '

The Family Clinic
Can ·Maiotain Family Circle. Despite Husband's Absence'
By Rev. John L. Thomas, S. J. J st. Louis University
My husband's work takes him from home most of the week. I don't have m~ch trouble ~eeping busy because we have three children aged five, four and two. It does get lonesome at times and I .miss his companionship. He says it's the work he can do best, . that maybe he can get a job take many forms, Louise. Some
couples live together all theirat the home office in a few lives, yet "never get to really know· years. I'm worried about our each other.. .some, absorbed In
lack of formal family life. Aren't raising a family and earning awe losing something valuable? living, seem to drift farther apart
'1 don't have to t"e II you, Lou i s e, that modern Industrial society offers many jobs' which· place a heavy strain on family life. Employment which keeps the husband away from home for days ()r weeks at a time Is bound to be trying for all memQers of. the family. Such absences are per·haps most keenly felt In the early years of marriage when the children ,are small and their care . confines you closely to the home. It wourd be .ideal, of course, to maintain your llttle family circle always Intact. The daily companionship of husband and wife in the home Is one of ,m.arriage's most pleasing rewards. But men must make a liVing as best they can under modern conditions. Your husband's job is only one of many which may put some strain ()n family life.
What's the best way to handle your problem? First, it is not advisable to persuade your husband to change his job unless he can find other employment equally satisfying for him. He eVidently likes his work and feels he stands a. good chance to better his positIOn If he stays with it. He may not find It easy to settle down In another line of work. so the decision to change jobs should come from him.
Keep Him Interested Second, although your com
panionship Is restricted,' it need not suffer In depth and quallty. Learn to make the most of the time when he Is home. 'Let him
.feel that he Is very much a part ()f the. falJ1ilY circle. If necessary, put off some 'of your work untll later so that you can spend more tIme together. Keep him Interested in what goes on around the home wh~le he is away. Set up som~ regular custom of'commUl11catlng either by letter '01'
telephone while he Is traveling. ~Is may seem to be a smalL pomt, but In the long run it' Is not. The old saying. "absence ' makes the heart grow fonder". se~ms. to be' based on Wishful thmkmg..In real life, a sensible' couple will make use of all practical means to maintain communication during separatIon.
Children's Attitude Third, a problem to which yOU'
should pay considerable attention in your circumstances is your children's attitude toward their' father. Because he Is away so. much-, they will tend to focus their affection on you. This may b"e flattering and rewarding for you, but It is not healthy for any bod y concerned. Children need mother and father. With a little thought, you can easlly bring father into the picture. Bulld up their expectations When yofl are expecting him home. 'Show him how to deal with them. Provide ,.opportunities for him to be with them. Rerpind him how . much he means to them. Suggest tliat he remember them with a little tOY or trInket when he returns from a trip. In' this way you can build him into the family circle and the famlly will grow around you as a couple.
Grow Together Married companionship can'
as life goes on. Yes, any husband and wife can lose something .valuable in married life If they are not careful to grow together as a couple. Your problem is essentially,the. same as that of all married couples. Your husbimd's job merely requires that ,you take a different approach In meeting It.

Sunday School More' Effective If Conducted on. Different Day
NEW YORK (NC)-Any day but Sunday is a better day for "Sunday school," acco'rding to Jesuit Father Joseph H. Fichter, sociologist stationed at Loyola University of the South, New Orleans.
Father Fichter contends that Sunday is "the poorest time that could oe chosen for religious instruction to Catholic elementary school children." He said the solution would ·be to "abolish Sunday school and :to give reli glous' instructions during the school day in school sup'ound
.·lngs." "More than half the Catholic
children of elementary school age in the United States are now attending public schools," Father Fitcher' said, "and during the next decade this percentage will probably rise to two-thirds."

Prelate Urge's Early Saving for Mar:riage
DURBAN <NC)-Young people should start saving for mitrriage and a home from their very first pay checks, according to Archbishop Denis E. Hurley, O.M.l. .
"The ideal is for the young couple to have a home of their own to move Into when they'return from their honeymoon. Their home becomes the symbol of their stable and permanent life. together, of the division of duties between . husband and wife." .
He stressed "the. duty of both partners to plan inteIIi'gently to meet the economic requirements of marriage," and before he <:oneluded his talk he reminded };lusbands that their wives sometimes need to go out.

Jesuit Backs Labor Unions
DUBLIN July 4 - An American Jesuit sociologist declared here that despite some corruption, organized labor In the United States Is "socially sound, politically correct, ethically earnest and economically necessary."
Father William J. Smith, S.J., director of St. Peter's Institute of Industrial Relations In Jersey City, said Amerclan labor un10ns have established a record of "numberless, unprecedented acc:ompllshments" in the past two decades.
Exploiters Few Dealing at length with the
c:urrent exposure being made by the special Senate labor-management . investigating committee in Washington, F\'lther Smith maid:
"Actually what we have had In America for some years has been n dual labor movement. One of legitimate labor activity, constituting about 95 per cent of the movement, led and Inspired by relatively good and honest men, the other five per cent a conglomeration of unscrupulous exploiters of the needs of the work1ng people, trading upon the democratic nature of the trade llnlon organization."
RecaJls Past Denying that the "vicious ele
ments" whose names are now In the headlines are typical of the leaders of the American labor
. movement, Father, Smith said, "The recent turn of events merely confirms' me In the belief and conviction that the workers should have more de-' fenders among the clergy rather than less."
Asserting that for 50 years prior to the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration, America's llnorganized workers were "victims of It sustained calculated lluppression," Father Smith declared:
"Much of the maladjustment which today exists In employeremployee relations can be traced to It common source in the far dim past of American industrial experience. It was not until 1935 that the Wagner Act gave to the American worker anything like an adequate legal protection for his nlltural right to ()rganlze Into legitimate trade unions. The very principle was ruthlessly resisted for more than
, 60 years. "Today, under the guise of
averting socialism, protecting a private free enterprise system that Is partially at least at variance with Its own principles, and preserving an old order which had never proved Its right to prevail, there are Influential forces In my country still subtly endeavoring to undermine this basic right of free workers In a free country."
Father Smith declared that a Iltrong labor movement Is necesIlary tor the hefllth of the Amerlean economy even though the use of power brings with It the danger of Its abuse.

Minnesotans Would Reveal Preference
MINNEAPOLIS (NC) - Most Minnesotans would not object it
. they should be asked about their religious preference by Federal censu~ takers in 1960.
This was revealed In a statewide survey conducted by the Minneapolis Tribune. One adult in every three questioned (34 per cent) thought It would be u' "good idea" for the census to collect this information. ,
Forty-two per cent said it did not make an-y difference to them, and 22 per cent thought a question on religious preference would be a "poor idea." Of the 34 per cent in favor of the question 37 pel' cent were Catholic
Bishop Stresses Power of Faith At State Legionnaires Mass
The Most Reverend Bishop presided and preached at the Memorial Mass for deceased Massachusetts Legionaires In St. Lawrence Church, New Bedford last Saturday morning. The Mass was helq In conjunction with the
o State Convention of the American Legion held in New Bedford.
The Memorial Mass was celebrated by the Re·v. Aurelian L. ¥oreau, pastor of St. Hyacinth Church, New Bedford; deacon was the Rev. Alfred J. Gendreau; assistant at St. Mary's Cathedral, Fall River; sub-deacon was the Rev. Alfred R. Forni, pastor of St; Francis of Assisi Church, New Bedford. All three priests are former service chaplains.
The Bishop spoke to the several hundred Legionnaires present on the power of their faith over the fears that pervade tl1e world. He urged them not to be carried away in the hysteria that sweeps the country and world - a stampede In the face of com
o JDunlsm - but to have fa'ith in God, in themselves, in our country and what'ti'ue freedom stands for.
Courage Needed The Bishop pointed out that a
body of men like the American Legion, in making resolutions and setting down policy, must be motivated by trust in their conVictions, confidence in what real freedom means. Fear of ignorance, of disease, are counteracted by education and vaccines. Fear of c'ommunlsm must be counteracted not by panic but by the setting forth of the "American story" which Is written not 1n material possessions but In principles and ideals.
The men of the Legion. who know what fear In battle Is, and who did their duty in the -face of fear, must use that same
courage In safeguarding the'\ Ideals and values for which they: fought.
The Bishop was escorted from; Fall River to New Bedford by I State Police and qJ.et at the New, Bedford line by Father Moreau, and the State Commander ot the American Legion.

Obvious Flaws in Spain'. Labor Relations System

Secondly, strikes and lockouts are absolutely prohibited in Spain at the present time. Franco defends this prohibition on the practical grounds that Spain, in her present economic predicament, simply cannot afford the luxury of work stoppages. They are, he says, "contrary to the common good' which states are called upon to defend." Even assuming that this is true. we are still faced with the stubborn fact that an absolute prohibition of strikes and lockouts- while it may be temporarily justified under a given set of circumstances-is certainly not to be recommended as the perfect ideal.

Third Person Proceeds From Both Father and Son :1
By F. J. Sheed.
The production of a Second Person does not exhaust the infinite richness of the dIvine nature. Our Lord tells us of a Third Person. There isa Spirit, to whom Our Lord will entrust His followers when He Himself shall have ascended to the Father. "r will ask the Father and He will give you another Paraclete, that He may abide with ~ou" (John xiv.16) The Spirit, like the Word, is a person,. He, not It. "But the Pa.raclete, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name. He wllI teach you all t h f n g s" (John xlv.26).
As we have already see n there Is one huge and Instant difference between God's Idea and any idea. we may form. His Is Someone, ourl! Is only somethini. With an idea which is only something, there can be no mutuality: the thinker can know it, It cannot know him; he can admire Its beauty, It cannot admire his; he can love it, it cannot return his love. But God's Idea Is Someone, and an Infinite Someone; between Thinker and Idea there Is an Infinite dialogue, an Infinite Jnterflow. Father and Son love each other, with Infinite Intenliity. What we could not know, if it were not revealed to us, is that they unite to express their love and that the expression is a third divine Person. In the Son, the Father utters His self-knowledge; in the Holy Spirit, Father Ilnd Son utter tJleir mutual love.
Love Is Infinite Their love Is infinite; Its ex
pression cannot be less. Infinite love does not express Its very self finitely: it can no more produce Jnadequate expression than infinite knowledge can produce an inadequate Idea. Each gives Himself wholly to the outpouring of His love for the Other, holding nothing -back-indeed the very thought of holding back Is ridiculous; If they give themselves at all, they can give themselves only totally-they possess nothing but their totality! The uttered love of Father and Son Is Infinite, lacks no perfection that they have, is Ood, a Person, Someone.
As the one great opemtion of .pirlt, knowing, produces the Second Person. 80 the other, loving, produces the Third. But be careful upon this-the Second Ill'OCeeds from. Is produced by. the First alone; but the Third, the Holy Spirit, proceeds from Father and Son, as they combine to express their love. Thus In the Nlcene Creed we say of Him "qui ex patre filloque procedit"who proceeds from the Father and the Son; and In the Tantum Er~o we sing to Him "procedentl ab utroque"-to Him who proceeds from both.
We have seen the fitness of the names Son and Word for the Second Person. Why Is the Third called Spirit?
Meaning of Spirit Here the word Spirit-like the
old English Ghost-is best understood as "breath." This is the root meaning; our ordinary word
. Ilpirit comes from it. because Ilpirit Is invisible, as air Is. It Is in its root meaning that Spirit Is the name of the Third PersonHe Is the "breath" or "breathing" of Father and Son.
That is Our Lord's chosen name for Him: and It Is more than a name: He breathes upon the apostles as He says "Receive ye the Holy Ghost"; when the Holy Ohost descends upon them at Pentecost. there Is at first the rushing of a mighty wind.
We may wonder why the Third Person who h< the utterance of
the love of Father and son should be called their Breath.
Breath and Life Let us note two things. It is
of universal experience that love has an effect upon the breathing, it Is a simple fact that the lover's breath comes faster. And there is a close connection between breath and life-when we stop breathing, we stop living. In the Nlcene Creed the Holy Spirit is called "the Lord and giver of life." The link between life and love Is not hard to see, for love Is a total selfgiving, Rnd so a giving of life~
One final reminder.' We saw how the Second Person is within the same nature, as an Idea Is
. always within the thinker's mind. So with the Third Person; the utterance of love by Father and Son fills the.whole of their nature, producing another Person, but still within the same identi cal divine nature. Try to see the nature of God. Wholly expressed as Thinker, wholly express'ed as Idea, wholly expressed as Lovingness.
Number of Employed Women Increasing
ST. LOUIS (NC) - More mothers will be working outside the home In the next decade than today, the National Catholic Council on Home Economics was told here.
Miss Marie C. 'Harrington, past State President of the American Dietetic Association, told the council's 10th annual convention: "A few years ago a young woman had to decide whether she would marry, or work for wages. The new woman of tomorrow will probably do both."
"In fact, women make up about one-third of our labor force today," she continued. "The prospects are that their emploYment will increase still' more before 1975. More than one-third of the women over 14 years of age are In paid employment today _
-21 million of them." Miss Harrington noted that
the Catholic married woman's first duty Is to her children' and home - "Whether she thinks it is Interesting or imp 0 r tan t enough or not:" .

Adams even dared to prophecy that twentieth century developments in China would be preceded by military action in Korea, and this at a time when most of the world had hardly any know~ ledge of that little Oriental land. Again, it is a commonplace today to point to the last stanza of Adams' "Prayer to the Dynamo," Which complemented his "Prayer to the Virgin," as highly prophetic of what the unleashing of atomic power would mean to the world. The stanza reads: Seize, then, the Atom! rack his
joints! Teal' out of him his secret
spring! Grind him to nothing'!-though

s~x Club Race May Go Down To Wire in National League
By ~ack Kineavy
July 4th is an important date in major league baseball. Tradition has it that the team in first place on that date stands a better than even chance of annexing the pennant. At this writing it appears that first place,in the, American League can be at tained on the historic date by only two teams, the Yankees and the White Sox. After last Sunday's games the Bronx Bombers moved into the league lead over Lopez & ·Co. Cleveland was In third place five games on', and the on-rushing Red Sox had moved into fourth, 1 ',2 games ahead of the faltering Tigers and 3 Y2 up on the re-Juvenated Ol:ioles. Two weeks ago this time, th8' Pale Hose was riding the crest of the wave some five games out In front.
The trading deadline came and went and '10, the indispensable but very disputant Billy Martin had been traded off to lowly Kansas City by the Yankee front office. Whethei· this action served to allay the fears 01 the admittedly apprehensive Copacabana combatants, 01' whether It put a burl' under the complacent champions is at best an academic Question. Subsequently, however, the Yanks settled into a take charge drive that erased the five game deficit and brought them into the present deadlock.
Malzone Sparkles Meanwhile the Red Sox, off a.
tremendous showing in their current homestand, have again tUl'ned Fenway from a form idable to a friendly base of operatlons. The Sox are now over 'the .500 mark at home and have won 10 of their last 12 games. More than a modicum of credit for this showing should gO' to Frank Malzone, the Sox' power hitting rookie. Frank had been leading off in the order early in the l5eason and the spot didn't agree with him, eVidently. At the end of April he was hitting .204.
Piersall Pressing Dropped in the lineup, his
hitting picked up and by the end of May Frank was at .275. Finalby ensconced In the sixth slot, the rookie had a torrid streak 1n June hitting .407 and driving In 34 runs. His Infield mates, shortstop Billy Klaus and second baseman Ted Lepclo, began to respond equally well upon retul'l11ng home and the net result has brought the Sox from 'way back Into contention once again.
The locals have a pronounced catching weakness, though. Sam White the No, 1 receiver is hit ting an anemic .224, glasses and all, and his replacement, Pete Daley, is even lower at ,143. This department and a pressing Jimmy Piersall In center field appeal' to be Manager Higgins' main causes of concern at the moment. Piersall could do well with a rest. A notorious slow ,starter, Jim is still fighting to get over the.250 mark. With the junior
splinter, Gene Stephens, avallflble for duty. the Sox could afford to let Piersall sit out with
out losing stride, Overlooked Orioles
Lost In the cornel' of the nation's sports pages has been the meteoric rise of the Baltimore Orioles guided by the astute Paul Richards. The acquisition of Billy Goodman from the Sox plugged a glaring third base weakness in the Bird's infield 'and gave them atdditlonal thump at the plate. The Baltimore mound staff, led by ex-Brooklynite Billy Loes (8-3), fired four consecutive
Ilhutouts this past week and came within two Innings of tying the American League record of 47
lour consecutive shutouts held jointly by New York and Cleveland. The l'eturnol George Kell to the lineup is still problematical. When he does, however, the Orioles will have as good a hlt ting Infield trio as there Is In ti)e league.
Goodman will likely move over to second, with the. ,345 hitting Boyd holding down first. Only two teams appeal' definitelY out of the running, Kansas City and Washington, but the former is certainly strong enough to be cast In a spoiler's rol\l. Sixteen of the Athletics are former Yankees or top drawer Yankee farmhands. They must still have fond feelings for their original sponSOl'S, however. The A's have lost all nine games to New York this .season.
Six Figure In the National League, It's
anybody's guess. As in the juniol;> circuit, only two teams, Chicago and Pittsburgh are obviously outclassed. And ,yet there's no certainty regarding them, Talking with Gene Hermanskl the other day, th.e formel' Brooklyn outfielder, now selling construction equipment, made the observation that the Dodgers of '47 came" from 'way back on July 4th to annex the title.
And. of course, there's the case of the Miracle Braves who were lodged In last place on July 4, 1914 only to make an unparalleled stretch run to the title and a World Series crown. The first six teams in the National League are definitely in contention. The Giants in sixth place are only six games behind league leading Milwaukee. The first diVision, as a matter of fact Is as close as your next breath. Cincinnati is only half a game out, st. Louis a game and a half, and Brooklyn' and Philadelphia three games behind. This arrangement could change overnight and very likely wlII as a result of the week-end activity. It's hardly likely, then, that the old maxim-July' 4th leader eventual pennant winner -wlII gain any more than passIng attention.
Plaudits for Rigney Philadelphia, New YOl'k, and
st. Louis have been surprisingly strong to date. Pre-season forecasts looked toward Brooklyn, Milwaukee, and Cincinnati to battle for the pennant and .It is not unreasonable to assume that one of them wlII yet come through. Philadelphia has a woefully weak hitting team and isn't expected to remain in contention. The Giants' surge is in a large
manner attributable to the greatplay of WlIIie Mays, their only .300 hitter, and the effectiveness
of Reuben Gomez, currently 9-5.Manager Bill Rigney Is conceded to have doile a marvelous job but the Giants' story ends there, '

Catechists Complete Training Course .
LOS ANGELES (NC) The Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, "right hand of the archdiocese," has graduated 361 lay catechists from -its 40 - week training course. The catechists came from 157, parishes. There were 149 qualified to -teach In parish high schools of religion, and 212 f<;>r the elementary level.
"I have a great deal of sympathy for your work, for my own early catechetical instruction was obtained from workers like yourselves," James Francis Cardinal McIntyre told the gl'aduates,
"It was on Sunday afternoons -at a very inappropriate hour. It wasn't in a classroom either," the Cardinal recalled. "It was In a large church in, groups of 10 or 12, That's the way we got our catechetical instruction, I hope it was fruitful."
The work of the Confraternity, the Cardinal said, "enlarges the family of God upon earth, You are a medium of God's grace bringing knowledge and appreciation of union with God." he added,
• If God's blessings' are to continue upon the country then they must not tic defied, but rather the people must live in union with God, the Cardinal declared, saying that, under the guise of academic freedom, doctrines were being proposed that rejected the order of nat1,lre and rejected the authority of God. .
