THE CATHOLIC TIMES Friday. Feb. J. 1954
Young Catholics Assail
Trend To Materialism
HILVERSUM Holland (NC) Higher wages and short
er hours cannot alone solve present-day social problems. What
is needed is a concept of “social justice'’ that aims at setting
up an integrated society in which modern man can find food
to still the spiritual hunger in his soul.
This was one of the key thoughts
brought forth at an international
meeting of young Catholics, at Dra
kenburgh near here.

ety” the meeting was attended by
delegates from Germany, Belgium.
Holland. France. Switzerland, Aus
tna and the United States.
Some of the views presented by
various speakers at the meeting
were:
There is *n over-emphesis in
Christian social thinking on the
“economic man" and too much
time is waated in analyzing the
errors of the past rather than
investigating the processes by
which the future can be shaped.
New social structures developed
by mass society (i. e. political par
ties based on class distinctions)
have failed to halt the alienation
of the individual from society.
It is impossible to reverse the
developments that have led to the
present-day economic order. The
mass type society is an inevitable
part of modern economy.
The social crisis of modern Eu
rope reflects the permanent crisis
of mankind which has its roots in
original sin and in the struggle be
tween God and Satan.
Preserving and stimulating a
healthy family life oilers the most
promising prospect for relaxing
pi esent tensions inherent in mass
type society.
The human relations factor must
be considered to a far greater ex
tent than heretofore in industrial
enterprises, together with decisive
efforts to give workers a share in
the responsibility for, and the man
agement of business enterprises.
Christians hsvs the special re
sponsibility of drawing upon
their Faith and the strength of
the Sacraments in taking the in
itiative toward solving social
problems. Their guiding princi
ple should be the restoration of
man to his dignity as a person
and as a child of God.

great saint, who wished from child

Conquering all opposition to his

is history, adventure and political

white mans greed brought war.

Spurs for Antonia, Katharine Wig
more Eyre, Hale & Co. Spe

An intriguing novel (ages 10-14)
with a Catholic background, “Spurs
for Antonia’’ is the moving story of
a child who finds herself trans

Antonia had always lived with her
reserved Aunt Alicia, but when
her aunt dies she moves out west
to live in unfamiliar surroundings
with her father, who had. because
of financial difficulties, sent her
to Boston when she was a baby.
Antonia faces many problems in
her new life, particularly since she
is com meed that her father wishes
she were a hoy, and her tribula
tions and triumphs, described in
a mature, uncondescending style,
will supply the junior miss with
several hours of entertainment.
Lack Of Religion In rhe Home
Cited As Cause Of Delinquency
gion in the home,
some modern trends in education,
and working motheis were listed
this week as the thiee basic caus
es of waywardness of today's Amer
ican youth.
Writing in the latest issue of
Catholic Men. magazine of the Na
tional Council of Catholic Men,
Msgr. Joseph E. Schieder asserted:
“A solution to the problem of
juvenile delinquency will be had
only when the mind* and heart*
of our youth are turned to God,
Who made them and they choo*e
to live by the authority end
teachings which are Hi*.”
Monsignor Schieder. who is di
rector of the Youth Department,
National Catholic Welfare Confer
ence, testified on the subject be
fore the Senate Juvenile Delin
quency Subcommittee.
Speaking of lack of religion in
the home, the Monsignor said: “If
a child is reared in a home where
God is a stranger, where attend
ance at church or the synagogue is
only something that he hears other
young people talking about, ob
viously then. God the Giver of
laws is indeed Somebody foreign
to him ... If God and His teach
ing* are unknown to a teenager,
what is there to prompt respect
for parents?”
The Monsignor also told the sub
committee: “Slowly' but surely we
are reaping our just deserts” from
a form of education “which consid
ers discipline as outmoded” He
scored he theory that “a child in
a classroom is not to be reprimand
ed for fear that in later life he
will be the victim of «ome infer
iority complex.”
“Cradled in this sort of educa
tional atmosphere it is difficult for
Only 10% Take
Mau Mau Oath
NAIROBI. Kenya (NC) Mis
sionaries estimate that only’ 10 per
cent of Catholic* among the Kikuyu
tribe have freely taken the oath of
the dreaded Mau Mau.
This is an impressive fact in
view of the torture and cruelty
which have been the stock in-trade
of the anti-Christian, anti Europ
ean movement that has spread like
a plagt’t throughout this British
colony.
Other Catholics who have been
terrorized into taking the oath
have not regarded it as binding,
but continue to attend Mass and
receive the Sacraments,
Th* Mau Mau oath include*

ean, and boycotting mission

The Happy Hollister* and the In
dian Treasure, by Jerry West
Garden City Books. Garden City,
New York, 1953. $95.
As an example of the series, this
Happy Hollisters book makes quite
a good impression. The story is
suitable for children, either boys
or girls, of around nine or twelve
It carries the Hollister family of
five children, a dog, a cat and her
five kittens, and the father and
mother to New Mexico, where
children learn Indian games,
the thieves who had stolen
goods they had come to buy,
discover a clue to a buried and
turquoise mine. Harmless, and lots
of fun! M.W.
me to conceive how a youth in his
leisure time hours is going to curb
his passions or thwart his inclina
tions to be dishonest,” the youth
leader said.
On the subject of working moth
ers, the Monsignor told the sub
committee “it has been well said
•No one can do two jobs and do
them well’.” He said the most im
portant job today is that of rais
ing a family, but that in 1953
there were 5,300,000 working moth
ers and 5 200.000 had children
under 18. Monsignor Schieder said
there are many mothers who are
forced to work, but added there
are others who allow their chil
dren “to roam the streets at all
hours of the night because mother
is working on the swing shift.”
The Monsignor also indicated
before the Senators the indecent
magazines and obscene movies of
the day. He said that the “Police
Gazette” shunned by a bygone so
ciety as an indecent publication
is “a nursery tale book” compared
to some that teenagers read today.

SCATTERBRAIN
Most of the trouble that comes
as distractions in prayer is caused
by failing to prepare yourself for
prayer. One just can't get down on
his knees and start out praying
like a good fellow. Holy Scripture
says something about tempting
God by not preparing for prayer.
First of all you ought to invoke
the aid of the Holy Spirit. Then
it would be a good idea if you en
listed the help of your guardian
angel and your patron saint. By
that time you will be able to raise
your mind and heart to God. and
you ought to be on the way. It isn’t
easy, but it is at least scientific
and thoughtful.
