Support Of Catholic Press Is
Called Matter Of (conscience
JACKSON HEIGHTS. N. Y.
(NG)—A Catholic press must be
maintained in the United States
for the same reasons of conscience
that the Catholic school system
must be maintained, James F.
Kane, executive secretary of the
Catholic Press Association declar
ed in a statement.
“If we had to rely on the gener
al press for complete and correct
information on the Catholic
Church, we would not have all the
information we need, to know how
to lead truly Catholic ’lives,” Mr.
Kane said.
But all the work and sacrifice
that goes into the Catholic press
would be in vain, he assert
ed, without readers. He re
called how St. Au-justine, at the
moment of his conversion, heard
a voice in a singsong chant say:
“Take up and read,” and called up
on all Catholics “for your own
sakes and for the sake ol the Cath
olic press to take up and read.”
Pointing out that "even the best
and most representative news
papers will not give you either
news on matters of great moment
to Catholics or editorial positions
grounded on Catholic teaching or
even on right principles of human
reason.” Mr. Kane -.aid that “even
the best general aewspapers are
secularistic” and are "generally

morally neutral” though few are
actually “anti-Catholic.”
The CPA official explained that
the Catholic Press covers four ma
jor fields oi publications: news
papers, magazines, pamphlets and
books.
In the United dates, he said,
there are some 114 diocesan news
papers and about 34 Catholic news
papers published in foreign lan
guages, making in round figures
about 150 Catholic papers with a
combined circulation of more than
four million.
Despite the small number of
Catholic newspapers, in compari
son to the 1,773 daily newspapers
and 8.500 weeklies, Catholic news
papers have grown in circulation
since World War II and have in
creased in number, said Mr. Kane.
Since last May five new Catholic
papers have been started, he add
ed.
“More important our news
papers have greatly improved in
the last five years both in cover
age, in context and in appearance,”
he said. He quoted a typograph
ic expert as saying: “Of the
Catholic newspapers I saw, none
of them could be considered typo
graphically bad and the aver
age, of those I looked at, was bet
ter made up than the average
large metropolitan daily.”
Mr. Kane emphasized that only
the Catholic press “since the
1920’s” has been warning of the
“menace of godless communism.”
The Catholic press “warned again
and again of the true nature of
the revolution,” he said. “It is
too bad for our Church and our
country that the Catholic press
went unheeded.”
Cardinal Plans
To Say Mass In
3 Eastern Rites
ERNAKULAM. India—(NO—His
Eminence Eugene Cardinal Tisser
ant, Secretary of the Sacred Con
gregation for the Oriental Church,
is expected to celebrate Mass in
three different rites during his vis
it to India this year, it has been
learned here.
The Cardinal is scheduled to
come to India to participate in cel
ebrations commemorating the 19th
centenary of the arrival of St.
Thomas the Apostle in India and
the fourth centenary of the death
of St. Francis Xavier, apostle of the
Orient. The Cardinal is expected to
arrive here on December 20.
As part of the celebrations on
the Indian subcontinent the body
of St. Francis Xavier will be sol
emnly exposed for veneration at
Goa, Portuguese India.
Cardinal Tisserant belongs to the
Latin Rite. However, information
reaching here states that he is now
familiarizing himself with the rub
rics of the Mars in the Syro-Mala
bar and the Syro Malankara rites.
A large number of mdian Catholics
belong to these rites.

Pupils’ Music
Fete Planned
Elementary school children of
the Central Deanery will be seen
and heard in their annual music
festival Sunday, March 23, at 3
p.m. in the Hartman Theater, Co
lumbus.
Theme of this year s festival will
be the 1950 message of the U. S.
Hierarchy: “The Child. Citizen of
Two Worlds.”
In choral singing and group danc
ing the children will trace their
lives from the learning of their
first prayers, through the liturgical
cycle of the Church and the secu
lar life of the social being, to the
grand finale when they «recognize
God as the center of all life and
sing the hymn, “Holy God, We
Praise Thy Name.”
Approximately 450 children will
be chosen from grades three to
eight in the schools of the deanery
to take part in the festival.
The same pageant will be pro
duced in each of the other four
deaneries of the Diocese.
Train Wreck Is
Responsible For
Church Blessing
PORT BARRE, La., There is
a direct connection between a
freight train wreck and St. Mary’s
Church here that was blessed re
cently by Bishop Jules B. Jean
mard of Lafayette.
This independent negro parish
was erected a little more than a
year ago and the Rev. Austin
Uhachere was named pastor. There
was very little cash toward the
building of a church. However, a
carload of cement was part of the
train that was wrecked 14 miles
from Port Barre. After the wreck
the cement was bought for the
proverbial song.
Labor given by mentbers of the
parish, and other gifts made pos
sible the erection and furnishing
of this 90 by 30-foot church with
a seating capacity of 320, at a
cost of $18,000.

For Converts
At Cathedral
A reunion of the converts who
were received into the Church at
St. Joseph Cathedral, Columbus,
between Oct. 1, 1950 and Dec. 31,
1951 was held in the Cathedral
Rectory Wednesday evening, Feb.
13.
As explained in the invitation
mailed to each convert by the Ca
thedral priests, the meeting was
held “to let you know you are not
forgotten once you have been bap
tized as Catholics, to offer you the
opportunity of asking questions
which may have come to your mind
since your conversion, and to give
you the chance to meet or renew
acquaintances with fellow con
verts.”
After the more than 50 people
had the opportunity to meet one
another, they received a short in
struction on the necessity of know
ing the priests of their own parish
and the obligation of joining their
parish societies.
The converts then spent an hour
asking the Cathedral priests ques
tions. after which color films of
the Sacrifice of the Mass were
shown and explained. The meet
ing ended with a social half hour
and refreshments.
The group found the evening so
instructive that plans are being
formed for it to meet three or four
times a year. The Cathedral priests
hope next year to band their 1952
converts into a similar group for
further study.
