by law but in fact within all hearts
baiting between the Amazon and
La Plata river*, so that His reign
of peace, love, justice and holiness
may be established everywhere.”
The Pope concluded his radio ad
dress by imparting his apostolic
blessing.
The Pope's message, relayed by
loudspeakers scattered throughout
the Congress Square, was heard af
ter the chanting of the Divine

Church The monstrance was
borne to the monumental altar in
an elaborate coach by ten priests
from the Church of the Candelaria,
Rio's largest Catholic ahrine.
Th* procession began at four
In the afternoon, and It was al
ready twilight when it reached
the altar erected in the Congress
Square, As late as midnight,
groups of the faithful were still
lingering for a last prayer.
Dignitaries On Hand
In the morning the last great
ceremony at the altar in the Con
gress Square took place when a
Solemn Pontifical Mass was cele
brated by Cardinal Masella, with a
full attendance of Cardinals, Arch
bishops and Bishops. Also at the
ilaM, during which a choir of hun
dreds of voices sang, were Presi

was celebrated by His Eminence
Francis Cardinal Spellman, Arch
bishop of New York, brought an
estimated 400.000 communicants to
the altai rail This was believed to
have been the largest group of men
ever to have received Holy Com
munion at one time in Brazil's his
tory. It took 200 priests an hour
4nd ten minutes to distribute Ho
ly Communion
The Communion Mass for the
women was offered by His Eml

nal Stritch. Archbishop of Chicago,
in honor of Cardinal Mindszenty,
Primate of Hungary, who was re
cently reported to have been con
ditionally released from prison by
the Hungarian communist regime.
In a brief sermon. Cardinal Stritch
told hundreds of Hungarian pil
grims:
‘‘We are only a small group of
Hungarians here, but somehow we
know that back home we join the
people in fervent prayer for the
Church in Hungary, which is per
sonified by Cardinal Mindszenty.
They have imprisoned him, but
from the silence of his cell he
speaks to the world as a true
champion of liberty. I think that,
despite the clouds, this is a glori
ous day. We must pray for the
honest peace that comes from jus
tice and charity.”
Cardinal Mindszenty was one
of the four victims of commun
ism among the members of the
College of Cardinals in honor of
whom special empty thrones
were placed before the groat al
tar in the Congress Square dur
ing the ceremonies there. Tho
others honored wore Thomas
Cardinal Tion, of China Stofan
Cardinal Wyszynski, of Poland
and Aloysius Cardinal Stepinac,
of Yugoslavia.
Cardinal Stritch spoke also at
the closing plenary session of the
general assembly of the Conference
of International Catholic Organiza
tions which was held in conjunc
tion with the Eucharistic Congress
He told the gathering that “we of
the western hemisphere represent
a new age for Christianity,” and
said “we must reinvigorate our
faith to make this hemisphere the
bulwark of Christianity In the mod
em world.”
Bishop Tate Applauded
Another highlight of the Con
gress was provided when Auxiliary
Bishop Manuel Tato of Buenos
Aires, who was recently expelled
from Argentina by the Peron gov
ernment, replaced His Eminence
Santiago l^iis Copello, Archbishop
of Buenos Aires, at one of the
solemnities of the Congress. Illness
prevented the Cardinal from at
tending the celebrations On his ar
rival at the Congress Square, the
crowd gave Bishop Tato a tremen
dous ovation
Throughout the Congress, special
Musses and Holy Hours for the pil
grims of different nationalities
were held in the Rio churches. An
Impressive exhibition of sacred art
and another illustrating the work
of Catholic missionaries drew a
constant flow of visitors Study ses
sions, special lectures, concerts of
sacred music, visits to the leading
shrines of the capital, and perform
ances of religious plays also help

NEW YORK (NC) The
departure of Howard Hughes
from the movie industry will
occasion few regrets, Motion
Picture Daily, a trade paper,
has commented in an editorial
written by Martin Quigley, edi
tor-in-chief and publisher.
’‘His frequent disregard of
both The causes of the industry
and of public opinion has at times
been a burdensome handicap,” the
publication said
Mr. Hughes sold his R.K.O. stu
dio and its assets for $25,000,000 in
cash. The purchaser was the Gen
eral Tire and Rubber Company
which controls the Mutual Broad
casting System and General Tele
radio, Inc., a TV film distribution
company.
During his 13 years as head of
R.K.O., Mr. Hughat produced
three movios that were condemn
od by the Legion of Decency.
They wero: "Tho O u 11 w,"
“French Line" and "Son of Sin
bad.” The last picture, though
riding a bumpy road, is current
ly being shown In some theaters
around the nation.
The entrance into the field of the
Thomas F. O’Neil interests which
own General Tire was heralded by
the paper as bringing the Industry
“a measure of character, intelli
gence and experience that will
have a deep and far-reaching ef
fect. They bring a sense of public
and private responsibility that will
enhance and embellish the Indus
try”

What matters moat, the article
said, is the fact that the world’s
statesmen have recognized the un
postponable need for such a meet
ing even if individual problems
still defy solutions.
More thsn half of the 2,000-word
article consisted of long extracts
from the Pope's 1954 Christmas
message which showed the road to
ward true peace.

Mexican Clergy
Not in Politics,
Newspaper States
MEXICO CITY—(NC)—The Mex
ican clergy has not, nor will it
depart from its decision not to mix
into politics.
This statement, attributed to a
high ranking ecclesiastic here, was
published by the daily Excelsior,
in answer to accusations made
against the Church by the Marxist
leader Vicente Lombardo Tole
dano.
Following the general elections
of July 3, in which his party suf
fered a heavy defeat, Mr. Tole
dano in a lengthy speech said that
pulpits had been turned into po
litical rostrums and that the
Church made use of the National
Action party.
Prior to the elections Mexico’s
Catholic Action made definite,
non-politicsl statements. Various
leaders relinquished their posts in
the Central Council of Catholic
Action to present themselves a|
candidates in the elections.

particular type of religion,” said
the Senator, “but you know,
whether we are Protestant or Jew,
Catholic or whatever we may be,
it is certainly a mighty fine thing
for Kids to know about the Ten
Commandments and to have some
basic moral ideas and teachings.”
CHICAGO (NC) Auxiliary
Bishop J. Shell of Chicago, who
has spent a lifetime working with
youth, told the Senate Subcom
mittee on Juvenile Delinguency
“the teen-age kids of this country,
for the first time in years, have a
sense of belonging.”
This has come about, he said,
because “at last it has penetrated
into the complacency of the Amer
ican people and their smugness
that there is a tremendous job to
be done, a job of love, a job of
care and attention to the prob
lems and aspirations, too, of these
teen-agers.”
At examples of conditions
that "have developed in tho
minds of great numbers of teen
agers a sense of not belonging,
of having no part in the com
munity, of finding no security
or love," he cited: Inadequate
housing, second-rate education,
llvl.ig in scenes of violence and
low morel atmosphere, and no
opportunities of utilizing energy
in playtime activities. He Im
plied that alleviation of these
conditions has helped to give
youth a sense of belonging.
Speaking of pornographic litera
ture, the Bishop said that every
agency of government—and the
federal district attorneys of the
United States, in particular
should be alerted so that the
problem of pornography would re
ceive proper attention. This must
be done, he said, “so that the
childhood of boys and girls would
not be destroyed by that type of
literature, which is more destruc
tive than anything we could ever
imagine or see.”

Red China Expels
Last Paris Foreign
Mission Priest
HONG KONG (NC) Chinese
communist persecution has brought
to a tragic close one of the finest
chapters in the history of the Paris
Foreign Mission Society.
It came with the expulsion of
Father Joseph Marie Le Corre, 81
year-old member of the Society,
who had spent almost 60 years in
Red China. He arrived here by
boat from Swatow after having
been forced to spend the last five
years in almost complete isolation
from his parishioners.
He was the last of the 214 Paris
Foreign Mission priests who have
been forced out of China by the
communist regime.

‘Co-Existence’
Plea Is Not
All-Inclusive
VIENNA (NC) What
ever political objectives the
communists hope to achieve
through their demand for
“peaceful co-existence” be
tween East and West, they cer
tainly have no intention of ap
plying the principle to relig
ious believers.
On the contrary, the Red war
against religion is to be intensi
fied. This was made clear in an
article published in the Soviet
provincial newspaper, Tadjikstan
Communist.
The paper charged that “a com
mon defect in many Russian
schools is the almost complete
absence of lectures on scientific
atheistic topics, especially for the
parents of students.” It said that
“this is a fault no longer to be
tolerated, since certain parents
and children are still in the grip
of religious revivals.”
"The Central Committee of
the Communist Party," the news
paper continued, "has issued in
structions making it clear that
the current struggle against re
ligious prejudices must be re
garded as the ideological
struggle of a. scientific world
outlook against tho forces of
anti-scientific religion.
“It is therefore the duty of the
Ministry of Education and al!
teachers and school directors to
ensure that natural scientific
knowledge is properly dissemin
ated, not only among school chil
dren but also among their par
ents.
“There are a number of schools
where the teachers regularly
carry out exercises aimed at the
survivals of the past and illus
trated with references, for ex
ample, to the clergy abroad who
helped the Anglo-American im
perialists unleash an atomic war.
Thus the children ar® shown con
vincingly that religion is the
enemy of science and progress.
“In many schools, however, par
ticularly in rural areas, the im
portance of natural scientific
atheistic propaganda is still under
rated. Under such circumstances,
it is naturally difficult to develop
a sound materialistic world out
look in children.”

Parents Told
Of Their Duty,
Responsibility
WASHINGTON (NC)
A speaker on the National
Council of Catholic Men’s
Christian in Action radio pro
gram told parents to remem
ber that the right and duty of
educating their offspring be
longs to them, “not to the
theorists.”
Father L. C. McHugh, S.J., a
Georgetown University professor,
said: “Don’t be embarrassed if your
home is not run on strictly demo
cratic lines. Education is a process
that is meant to take place under
authority. You are on solid ground
when you firmly insist on obedi
ence, discipline and order in your
home.”
The Jesuit priest reminded his
audience that the family is by na
ture not a “permissive” society,
nor even a democratic one.
"It is an authoritative society,
and tha authority rests with
those who have the terrible re
sponsibility of seeing that this
society achieves the goal for
which It exists," he said. "That
means that parents not only have
the right to educate their chil
dren but also all tho authority
they need to perform the task.”
There was a time, said Father
McHugh, when a “conference at the
summit” in American family life
meant ma and dad “laying down
the law.” He adds “Today, all too
often, a ‘conference at the summit’
means that the neighborhood teen
agers have held a pow-wow in the
drugstore and decided just how
much leeway the poor parents are
to be allowed in managing family
affairs.”
Belgian Senate
Approves Anti
Catholic Bill
BRUSSELS (NC) The
Belgian Senate has approved
and sent to King Baudouin the
bill cutting state aid to Catho
lic schools by over $5,000,000.
The vote, which was 91-0,
came after Catholic deputies
had walked out of the Senate.
Earlier a compromise suggestion
to send the school problem to a
non-partisan commission was re
jected by the Social Christian
(Catholic) Party, after the govern
ment set terms which Catholic
leaders described as “humiliating.”
The new legislation also allows
further cuts in subsidies by min
isterial docroo, against which tho
schools will have no right of
appeal.
Catholic schools will have to
grant fee reductions but will not
receive adequate compensation for
losaes in revenue.

“it consists in deed and not in

Bishop Raymond stressed the
“enormous benefits” derived for
the people of hit area from the
Catholic Relief supplies. Pointing
out that his diocese hat only a
small Catholic population, he said
that non-Catholics have used 80
to 90 per cent of the supplies sent.
The Bishop said some 70 per

"tho undernourishment is so

wasting diseases so prevalent,
the infant mortality so terrible
that whatever you send can be

Ending his letter to Monsignor
Swanstrom by thanking American
Catholics “in my name and that of
my people” Bishop Raymond said:
“It is difficult to convey to you the
abject poverty of our people, their
lack of resistance to disease, their
urgent need of food it is yet more
difficult to convey to you the

fected, the physical stamina it has
brought to so many, and the light
of hope it has provided.”
