Mexican Bishop Calls For
Labor, Management To
Make Spiritual Accord
MEXICO CITY (NC) A
call for “a spiritual understand
ing between management and lab
or as the basis for true Christian
brotherhood” in Mexico was sound
ed here by Bishop Luis G. Cab
rera y. Cruz of Papantla.
The Bishop spoke at the tenth
national assembly of Catholic Ac
tion counselors attended by 100
priests. “The welfare of the work
ing classes,” Bishop Cabrera de
clared, “requires that management
so organize its industry as to be
able to pav a minimum family
wage, in addition to the benefits
imposed by law.”
Declaring that “profits in busi
ness must be moderate in order
that they may not cause a high
cost of living, which is mostly
borne by the working classes."
the Bishop assailed excessive prof
its and criticized business con
tracts which, he said, often have
the appearance ®f being freely
made, but actually are against the
interests of the poor and “differ
but little from ordinary thefts.”
T'he wealthy, Bishop Cabrera
said, have a right to properties
needed to maintain a befitting and
worthy life for themselves and
their families, in keeping with
their social standing. However,
he added, the good left over at
ter such needs are satisfied ought
to be transferred to the needs ot
the poor and toward a just recom
pense ot workers, in accordance
with the requirements of the com
mon good and human dignity.
One of the principal speakers
at the laymens meeting was Dr.
.Jose Gonzalez y Torres, president
of Mexico's Catholic Action, who
charged that business has "divert
ed its mission” and now’ exists
“not to serve but to gain."
Dr. GonzalejBz said there was a
great need U make known the
teachings of the Church on social
questions and to promote their ap
plication through the training of
leaders capable to bringing about
a Christian reform of society.
In Mexico.” he said, “we suff
er a rampant capitalism which
has brought, apulence to a privileg
ed few and dire poverty to the
majority of? the people.’

WASHuMGTON (NC) Hous
ing is the biggest overall problem
for Negroes nationally, intheopin
ion of an expert in the interracial
field, Betty Schneider, national di
rector of the four Friendship
House interracial centers in the
United States.
The low-income group, to which
most Negroes belong, can get ade
quate housing today, she says, on
ly through public housing, and she
believes all Catholics should help.
However, housing is only part
of the picture, Betty says, adding
that the Friendship Houses are
working foi “integration” of the
Negro in all phases oi American
life, including social life.
‘‘You not only have to think of
corporal works of mercy, but to
think of working alongside people
ol another race, and living along
side them." she maintains.
Friendship Houses in New
Yorks Harlem, Chicago's South
Side, the Nation's Capital at Wash
ington, and in Portland, Ore seek
to promote interracial social jus
tice. One way they hope to achieve
this is by providing a meeting
place for whites and Negroes of
the same educational or proles
sional background. The aim is to
change people's thinking as far as
racial prejudices go.
Young members of the laity vol
unteer their full-time services to
the centers, sharing a “poverty of
insecurity.” Residing at the center
itself, they hold classes, maintain
a lending library, provide facilities
Labor Leader Savs
IXegro 51 list Vote
To Gain Rights
NEW’ YORK (NC) A large
vote in the November elections on
the part of Negro communities to
“insure the interest of the success
ful candidates in an effective civil
rights program” was urged here
b.v a prominent Negro labor lead
er. He was Benjamin F. McLaur
in. field organizer of the Inter
national Brotherhood of Sleeping
Car Porters, who spoke at a forum
sponsored by the Catholic Inter
racial Council of New York.
Mr. McLaurin said that “the Ne
gro must take his place in the
community and in national life, in
order that he may continue to
press forward this fight for civil
rights for all people.”
He scored as "silly and irre
sponsible” a recent suggestion
that Negroes should boycott the
polls in the coming elections on
the grounds that the major party
tickets and platforms are unsatis
factoiy from a civil rights stand
point.
“Two wrongs will not make a
right.” he said. “As Americans, we
are concerned with the oxer-all
destiny of America: and as Amer
icans. our right to vote is one of
our most prized possessions. We
are not going to withold our fran
chine simply because somebody
displeased us.”
Observing that he had no inten
tion of minimizing the importance
of civil rights. Mr. McLaurin said
that most minority groups have
the same civil lights problems as
the Negro, but that many people
misconstrue this issue as a strictly
Negro question because Negroes
happen to be the largest minority

SYDNEY. Australia (NC)
Word of a United States pilgrim
age to take part in Australia's
great Catholic sesqui-centennial
celebration next Spring has been
warmly welcomed here.
His Eminence Norman Cardinal
Gilroy. Archbishop of Sydney, has
invited Catholics everywhere to
participate in the event, which is
to take the form of a national Eu
charistic Congress, participation
from other countries will be es
pecially appropriate as a manifes
tation of the Congress theme. "Fra
ternal Charity.”
he Congress will mark the 150’h
anniversary of a decree that first
granted permission tor public cek
bration of Mass in Australia. It will
also commemorate the 25th anni
versary of the International Eu
charistic Congress in Sydney, in
1928 and of the founding of the
Holy Name Society here that same
year.
Participation of Catholic leaders
from many parts of the world has
already been announced. Among
U.S. prelates and clergy who will
be here for the event are Archbish
ops Richard J. Cushing of Boston
and John F. O'Hara. C.S.C.. ol Phil
adelphia. Bishop John J. Wright of
Worcester, and the Rev. Patrick
Peyton, C.S.C.. Family Rosary

It was on April 19. 1803, that
Governor Philip Gidley King is

mitting the public celebration of
the Miss in New South Wales. The
proclamation that brought the
Church in Australia out of the
"catacombs” existence it had suf
fered until then in the officially
Protestant settlements "down un

Australians now are wondering
whether some of their American
Congress visitors might be prevail
ed upon to stay, or at least to come
back and settle later. Australia
needs settlers to help develop its
vast under populated areas. Durins
his recent visit to the United
States. Cardinal Gilroy told Amer
icans that Australia must “popu
late or perish.” He cited immigra
tion agreements ttbat have been
made with the Netherlands. Italy
and West Germany, and added that
Americans are most welcome.”
