Says Schools
Ought to Set
Race Example
NEW YORK—(NC)—If a school
makes no racial distinctions, neith
er will the students, Msgr. Edward
J. Watcrson, principal of Cardinal
Hayes High School here, told a
forum of the Catholic Interracial
Council,
Monsignor Waterson said that
racial integration in educational
institutions not only is practicable,
but is desirable. He pointed out
that in the six-year history of the
New York archdioesan high school,
students have been accepted solely
on the basis of a competitive en
trance examination without regard
to racial or financial status.
The Monsignor said this policy
has set the pattern for student
activities and although white stud
ents predominate, Negroes are in
all activities—clubs, teams and
scholastic honor groups. He said
an absence of race consciousness
among the students is indicated by
the fact that during the last two
years Negro students have been
elected president of the senior
class.

Radio Station Calls Blanshard
Talk "Offensiie," Asks Reply
A tirade against the Church,
broadcast in Harrisburg, Pa., re
cently by Paul Blanshard, profes
sional anti-Catholic writer and
speaker, last week drew a point-by
point radio reply from Bishop
George L. Leech of Harrisburg.
Station WHGB, which had broad
cast Mr. Blanshard’s address, re
ported that “the speaker proved
offensive,” and invited Bishop
Leech to make a reply.
The Bishop disclosed that com
plaints against the lecture had
come from Protestant and Jewish
clergymen and laymen, as well as
from Catholics, and that even some
non-religious people had expressed
indignation over
talk.
Hits *Big Lie'
“You know,”
Leech, “you can
with a lie, the Big Lie or the little
lie and the half-truth, the twisted
truth, is the cleverest kind of lie.
“Mr. Stalin knows that, and is
using it against America and the
Church quite effectively. Mr.
Blanshard knows that, too, and in
using it against the Church he is
using it against America and the
communities which make up Amer
ica, but apparently he doesn’t see
that point. In any case, it’s an ef
fective way to fill his lecture halls
and to sell his books, and he’s wel
come to his profits. To Dale Fran
cis by the way, whom he was
threatening with a libel suit last
year, he wrote: ‘I have been anx
ious for some time to retire on a
comfortable income for life’.”
the Blanshard
said Bishop
never catch up
The announced topic of Mr.
Blanshard’s Harrisburg address was
the question of whether this coun
try should send an Ambassador
to the Vatican, but, as Bishop
Leech pointed out, Mr. Blanshard
departed from his subject to at
tack the Holy Father and to ridi
cule the ceremonies, customs, and
institutions of the Church.
The only criterion for judging
the appointment of such an ambas
sador, the Bishop said, is “whether
or not the step would be for
best interests of the people of
United States of America.”
Not Our Idea
“Now the only point I make is
this,” he continued, “why get one’s
blood pressure up and blast the
Catholic Church? Why blame the
Pope? He didn’t do it. He didn’t init-

('lark Case With Pope
VATICAN CITY (Radio, NC)
His Holiness Pope Pius XII and
His Eminence Francis Cardinal
Spellman, Archbishop of New
York, did not talk about the “Clark
case" during their two meetings
here. This was made clear by
Osservatore Romano in a front
page comment dealing with what
it called the “dime novel” fanta
sies of leftist newspapers.
These newspapers had seized the
occasion of the Cardinal’s brief
visit here and the Washington an
nouncement that President Truman
had withdrawn the nomination of
Gen. Mark W. Clark as U. S. Am
bassador to Vatican City State, to
talk about the “defeat” of Vatican
diplomacy. They furthermore as
serted that Cardinal Spellman had
specially come to Rome in con
nection with the whole matter of
U.S. representation at the Vatican.
“We are able to say that this
matter did not form the subject of
conversation,” declared Osserva
tore, Vatican City daily.

THE CATHOLIC TIMES, FRIDAY, JANUARY, 2 5, 1 9 5 2
Most Rev. George L. Leech
iate it ... To hear Mr. Blanshard
talk you would think that we Amer
ican Bishops, at command of Our
Holy Father, have been sitting up
nights, searching for ways and
means to get an ambassador from
the United States to Pope Pius XII.
If we bishops were ever interested
in that step, there is one place
where we might be expected to
discuss it, and that is the meeting
where we all assemble, for three
days, every November in Washing
ton. Now as a bishop I’ve been at
tending those meetings for 16
years, and never once, even for a
moment, has such a question
been mentioned.
“We Catholics, of course,
our fellow citizens, have our
opinions on the various public
questions, and so on this question.
I, for example, have my own opin
ion on this particular question and
my reasons for it, and I think my
opinion would surprise Mr. Blan
shard but that is my business as
a citizen But to make of this
purely civil measure, which the
President seems to consider ex
pedient, a dark and scheming plot
of the Catholic Church against the
civil and religious freedom of
Protestant America—well, that’s a
little hard to swallow, I submit, and
I think that here in our own com
munity, where we seem to get
along pretty well as friends and
neighbors, our people are not too
much convinced by the stranger

Teachers Oppose
Public Funds For
Catholic Schools
VANCOUVER, B. C. (NC)
A resolution opposing public aid to
parochial schools, adopted by the
Executive (board) of the British
Columbia Teachers’ Federation, is
an “open violation" of the Feder
ation’s own (’ode of Ethics, the
British Columbia Catholic Educa
tion Association Executive charg
ed.
After the Vancouver City Coun
cil granted health and dental serv
ices to Catholic school pupils, the
BCTF Executive adopted a resolu
tion protesting the “granting of
concessions demanded by religious
or other sectarian groups which
seek integration of their schools
with those established by the Pub
lic Schools Act.” The federation
executive further opposed “the ex
penditure of public funds for the
aid or support of religious or o^er
sectarian schools.
In a page one article in the
British Columbia Catholic, Arch
diocesan weekly, the Rev. H. I.
Bader, editor, said: “The resolution
was a violation of the Federation’s
Code of Ethics, which states in
part: ‘The teacher should avoid
giving offence to the religious be
liefs and moral scruples of his pu
pils or of their parents.’”

who accepted Harrisburg hospital
ity and remained long enough to
show us how not to be a good
neighbor and a Christian gentle
man.”
Peg for Calumnies
The real reason for Mr. Blan
shard’s visit to Harrisburg, Bishop
Leech declared, was “to dress up,
in his own very talented and
plausible way, some of the old
calumnies against the Church
The ambassadorship was only
a very handy peg on which to
hang all those familiar old items
which are a poor bigot’s delight,
including our religious schools,
our Sacraments, especially Mar
riage and Confession, and above
all our strange happiness and con
tentment in the Church, and our
uncompromising devotipn to the
Church onee and for all established
by Jesus Christ.”
“Actually,” the Bishop went on,
“we are strictly bound in con
science by the law of God and of
the Church to honor and rever
ence and obey all civil authority
placed over us lawfully whether by
election or by appointment, and
neither pope nor bishop nor priest
has any more to say than the King
of England about what a Catholic
should think or say or do in his
quality of citizen of any nation, ex
cept to urge him to exercise his
citizenship for what he considers
to be the best interests of his local
community and the nation
Unity of Spirit
“When it comes to spiritual
things, however, that is, the sancti
fication and the saving of our im
mortal souls through the beliefs
and practices of our holy religion,
there our Catholic people follow
the teaching of the Sacred Scrip
tures and of their lawful spiritual
shepherds, their chief-bishop, their
local bishop, and their local pastor
and because of the unity of our
Catholic faith and doctrine, you
may be sure that our Catholic re
ligious life is essentially one
throughout the world.
“We believe that Christ is true
God, as well as true man. We be
lieve that He founded the Church
on Peter, the Rock, and that He
still abides in His Church.”
Cites Supreme Court
Referring to Mr. Blanshard’s
criticisms of Catholic schools as
“divisive,” Bishop Leech quoted
a U. S. Supreme Court decision
which stated, in part:
“The fundamental theory of lib
erty upon which all governments
in this union repose excludes any
general power of the state to stand-

Of Capuchin Saint
St. Lawrence of Brindisi
Discovery Confirmed
VIENNA—(NC—A collection of
sixteenth-century handwritten ser
mons, said to have been composed
by St. Lawrence of Brindisi, has
been found in the Capuchin monas
tery here.
The volume contains about 1,300
pages in St. Lawrence’s own hand
writing. Only the headings of the
various sermons appear to have
been written by someone else.
St. Lawrence established the first
Capuchin settlements in Austria to
ward the end of the sixteenth cen
tury. Owing to his extensive mis
sionary and diplomatic activities
within the boundaries of the old
Holy Roman Empire, he is often
referred to as another St. Peter
Canisius, the revered “Apostle for
Germany.”

ardize its children by forcing them
to accept instruction from public
teachers only. The child is not a
mere creature of the state those
who nurture him and direct his
destiny have the right, coupled
with the high duty, to recognize
and prepare him for additional ob
ligations.”
“There is one certain nation to
day,” Bishop Leech pointed out,
“together with its captive nations
behind the iron curtain, where
unity does mean uniformity—uni
formity in word and action and ev
en in thought. We don’t envy that
nation, so let’s not try to imitate
it here.
“Our various religious sehools,
Catholic or other, are not oppon
ents, nor even rivals, of public edu
cation. As a matter of fact, we all
believe in public education. We
support it like everybody else, and
we would strenuously oppose any
movement to abolish it or misuse
U. But the point is that we have
to be true to our Christian con
science and to our understanding of
Christ and what it means to build
up Christ in our minds and our
wills and our attitudes and our ac
tions and the totality of our being,
whether as Christians or as citi
zens, so that we just do not under
stand education without religion,
any more than the founding fathers
of America could understand it.”
Answers Marriage Attack
Bishop Leech also took issue
with Mr. Blanshard’s “tirade on our
Catholic marriage laws and our
Catholic doctrine on morality and
eligion in family life.”

“Tell me,” asked the Bishop,
“are our Presbyterian and our
Episcopal neighbors, for example,
unAmerican because they have
their own marriage laws? Or do
they escape the stranger’s con
demnation because they are not
Catholics? Does not our religious
freedom under the Constitution
mean precisely that any citizen is
free to follow his conscience and
subscribe to the moral code of any
religion of his choice? Certainly
we Catholics have standards of
morality and justice in marriage
and family life, but that these
standards of ours ever contravene
the civil law of the land even Mr.
Blanshard would have to deny.”
Bishop Leech also exposed Mr.
Blanshard’s stratagem ol linking
the Catholic Church with Atheistic
Communism, pointing out that the
Blanshard technique is the same
as Moscow’s. The Bishop quoted
the Red party line published in the
Communist monthly, Political Af
fairs, in 1946: “The struggle must
be waged so as to drive a wedge
between the reactionary hierarchy

I say in all charity, that wittingly
or unwittingly, Mr. Blanshard, in
attempting to accomplish his own
purpose, was making use of the
same kind of strategy which is
aimed at destroying Christianity
as a whole.”
In conclusion the Bishop asked
the Catholic people of Harrisburg
to “go down on your knees and
thank God for your Catholic faith
in Christ and your privilege of suf
fering for it.”
“You will forgive,” he said, “and
you will not commit the sin of
