eternal moral laws, it will be
repeatedly necessary to remove
from the path toward peace
those obstacles which the mal
ice of man have put in its way.
Among these obstacles His
Holiness listed: propaganda of
immorality, social injustice un
employment, poverty contrasted
with luxury, lack of proportion
between technical and moral
progress in nations and the un
checked armaments race.
Pope John said the Church’s
proper function and office to
ward attainment of peace is one
of prayer and teaching.
The Pope said:
“The Church prays with con
fidence to Him who rules the
destinies of nations and can di
rect the hearts of governments
to good . . . Besides prayer,
the Church makes available its
material offices, points to the
incomparable treasure of its
doctrine, urges its children to
lend their active cooperation for
peace.”
The Pontiff began his mes
sage by saying the road to Beth
lehem truly marks the path for
the right approach to peace, but
noted how many other roads
have been sought which lead to
nowhere.
“In the world of today,” he
said, “how many roads of peace
have been proposed and impos
ed; and how many have been
suggested even to Us, who re
joice indeed, with Mary and
Joseph, in the sure knowledge
of our path and have no fear of
the possibility of going astray.”
“From the Second World War
right up to this present time,”
the Pope continued, “what a
variety of utterances, what an
abuse of this sacred word ‘peace,

PRIEST SLAIN
IN ALGERIA
PARIS, (Radio, NC) — Father
Rene Husson, W.F., French
priest who spent 20 years as a
missionary in the Sahara, was
shot and killed (Dec. 28) by ter
rorists in Algeria, it was learned
here.
nor do We wish to forget our
separated brethren for whom
Our prayer rises unceasingly to
heaven, that the promise of
Christ may be fulfilled: one
Shepherd and one flock.”
Father Husson, 48, was slain
by machine-pistol bullets fired'
at him while he was walking in
a narrow street in Ouled Djellal,
oasis town about 70 miles south
of his mission at Biskra.
The White Father from the
Diocese of Nancy had gone to
Ouled Djellal to offer midnight
Mass for the European Chris
tians and about 100 Moslems
there. He was awaiting the de
parture of a military convoy to
Biskra when he was shot.
Ordained in Cathage two dec

peace’ . . . But human efforts
in the matter of universal
peacemaking are still far from
the point where heaven and
earth meet.
The Pope concluded his mes
sage with a wish and an ex
hortation.
His wish was that “all men of
good will will return to Christ
and listen to His divine teach
ing which is the teaching of His
Vicar on earth and of the law
ful pastors, the bishops.”
His exhortation: “At Bethle
hem all men must find their
place. In the first rank should
be the Catholics. Today espe
cially, the Church wishes to see
them pledged to an effort to
make His message of peace a
part of themselves ... it is
completely intolerable for Cath
olics to restrict themselves to
the position of mere observers;
they should feel clothed, as it
were, with a mandate from on
high.”
Before closing, the Pope de
scribed a painting which he
keeps in his chapel, a painting
which depicts the Holy Family
and young John the Baptist in
“Sacred Conversation.”
Identifying himself with the
“John” of the painting, Pope
John said he likes to consider
himself in his “universal minis
try” engaged in sacred conver
sation with those whom he
would name as being particular
ly dear to him. These are, he
said, “those who suffer from
the anxieties and miseries of
life . . . the sick and the in
firm . . . those who are suffer
ing in spirit or in their hearts
because of the uncertainties of
the future, economic hardships,
humiliation imposed upon them
because of some fault committed
or presumed . . . the little chil
dren ... the aged, often tempt
ed by moments of melancholy
or by the thought of themselves
as useless.
“And not to them alone, but
also to all whose state of life
is undistinguished, to the poor,
to workers, to employers, and
to those who are invested with
public and civil power . . .
“And how could We omit re
membrance on this day before
Christmas Eve of Our venerable
bishops . . . and the generous
and heroic bands of missionary
men and women and of cate
chists; and of the compact and
noble army of the diocesan and
religious clergy and of the reli
gious women belonging to in
numerable and praiseworthy in
stitutes; and of the Catholic
laity all on fire with zeal for
the works of Christian piety . . .
