The relationship of modern emphasis on emotional and phy sical ecstasy to Christian mysti cal experience will be treated, on the March 6 program, en titled “The Search for Ecstacy.” On March 13, “The Under ground Man” will explore the “wordly” view of sickness as an absurd tragedy, and the Chris tian theory of suffering and the Malagasy Missioner W.

King, C.M., (above) is enroute to Mala gasy Republic (formerly known as Madagascar) an island off the southeast coast of Africa. A native of Boston, he was formerly on the faculty of St. John’s University, Brooklyn. Vin centian priests were sent to Madagascar as early as 1648. Father King is the first U. S. Vincentian assigned there. (NC Photos) Congress Prayer Marks Ukrainian Independence Day ■WASHINGTON, (NC) — In commemoration of the 42nd an niversary of Ukrainian inde pendence, Father Stephen J. Cherpta, rector of St. Vladimir’s pro-cathedral and dean of St. Basil’s College, Stamford, Conn., served as guest chaplain at the U. S. House of Repre sentatives. Reciting the traditional pray er opening the House session, Father Cherpta prayed for all enslaved victims of commun ism. “In particular,” he said, “we pray for the Ukrainian people, who are the first victims and who have suffered unmerciful ly four decades of the ruthless liquidations, starvations and in human tortures of this dread ful scourge, which even threat ens the peace of the world.” Catholic and other Ukrain- ian-American groups through out the nation remembered that on January 22, 1918, the independence of the Ukraine was proclaimed, only to be, lost two years later in the com munists’ Russian revolution. (By J. J. Gilbert) WASHINGTON, — The West German Government has said that communist East Germany instigated the anti-Jewish inci dents which spread across the Federal Republic. As for those in other parts of world, such as Great Britain, Australia and the United States, a writer in a prominent New York city newspaper says the flames of anti-Semitism were fanned into a worldwide blaze by Reds working with neo-nazis and other hate groups. Another writer, also appear ing in a chief New York news paper, says British Intelligence officials have information that the incidents, were “fomented by direct orders from the Krem lin.” He undertakes to quote from one such order. This is understandable for it is known the Reds have a high ly developed technique of using a worldwide chain of propa gandists to incite desired ac tions. The West Germany allegation of Red involvement came in a lengthy document issued by the Bonn Defense Ministry. It charged that East Germany’s communist central committee last January instructed its prop agandists to launch a campaign to create anti-Semitic incidents in West Germany. In addition, government spokesmen said some persons charged with taking part in the outbreak have communist con nections. All indications are that the drive to amass evidence showing the communists, role will con tinue. And as it does, the plot is turned more and more against the plotters. It is not difficult to speculate what might inspire such a com munist scheme. Discredit free Germany, they would reason, and this may produce world protest against rearming the country. Employ the communist net of propagandists in other countries so as to increase alarm in these areas. As the link between the Reds and the incidents is more fully developed, however, the com munist argument can be thrown back at them, with the charge that their vile tactic indicates the importance they place on a weak West Germany and this means the program to rearm the country should proceed. However, a hope expressed here is that Bonn, or the world, will ndt pass off the outbreaks as communist inspired and without other significance. All nations must continue to be vigilant against racism. Not MARRIAGES o- -O ] SHUMAN-SHEICEY | O O SAVANNAH — Miss Barba ra J. Shekey of Fort Atkinson, Wis. and Kenneth A. T.

But, on the other hand, it would seem something can be done to end the ignorance of those pranksters who smear on a wall a symbol they do not understand. Chancellor Konrad Adenauer says he suspects this type of immaturity is responsible for most incidents. The American Jewish Congress, in its report on the approximately 70 U. S. incidents, notes that not one person over 13 years of age has been charged with participation in them. Here clearly lies a challenge for parents and educators. Both seem to have an obligation to review their efforts to impart a sense of brotherhood and to explain the vicious racist philos ophy which produced under Hitler horrors that shook the world. BE LG AIN'S DUTY TO CONGOLESE WILL CONTINUE (N.C.W.C. News Service) BRUSSELS, — Belgian Cath olics have binding ties and ob ligations to the people of the Belgian Congo even after Con golese independence, the Bel gian Bishops declared in a joint pastoral letter. Indicating sympathy for the striving for independence by the people of the Congo, the Bishops said they “expect much of an independent Congo and are happy to recall that it was Belgian missionaries who first gave the Africans a sense of order, social justice and of in tellectual and economic devel opment.” “The natives of the Congo are your brothers,” the Bishops told' their people. They added that therefore “Congo missions should have a priority of cha rity and help by both religious and lay missionaries.” The pastoral, isstled on tne feast of the Epiphany (Jan. 6), goes on to state that the Catho licism of the Congo “will de pend for a long time on your Belgian Catholics.” Noting that it was only this past November that the Holy See superseded the old apos tolic vicariates and prefectures with arch-dioceses and dioces es, giving the country a regular hierarchy, the Belgian Bishops said that in the 60 years of the Congo mission “no less than 668 missionaries died.” This makes no count of those who return ed home in “ruined health,” they said. The Bishops pointed with pride to the maturity of the Congolese Church, especially to the number of native priests. Three residential bishops and two auxiliaries are native Af ricans, they said, as is a total of 461 priests. In addition, there are 473 Brothers and 1,075 Sis ters who ard Africans. All told, the Bishops said, there were 6,100 missionaries in the Congo and the adjoining trust territory of Ruanda-Urundi last year. 14th Appeal For Relief Fund Of U. S. Bishops Stresses Role In Helping Cause Of World Peace (N.C.W.C. News Service) WASHINGTON — The 14th annual appeal for the worldwide overseas relief program of U. S. Catholics has been launched with emphasis on how curbing hunger and deprivation can help the cause of world peace. The goal set for the Catholic Bishops’ Relief Fund Appeal is $5,000,000. The drive begins on Ash Wednesday March, 2, with a Lenten campaign in Catholic schools. The week of March 20 to 27 will be observed in most of the nation’s 16,500 Catholic church es as the time for local, appeals with a special collection on Lae- tare Sunday, March 27. This was announced by Arch bishop Karl J. Alter of Cincin nati, chairman of the admini strative board of the National Catholic Welfare Conference, the U. S. Bishops’ voluntary coordi nating agency. In a letter to the nation’s Cardinals, Archbishops and Bishops, Archbishop Alter said this year’s drive is more import ant than ever for the success of Catholic Relief Services — National Catholic Welfare Con ference, the Bishops’ relief ag ency. “The hunger and deprivation that continue to exist in so many parts of the world and which, together with the refu gee problem, must be alleviat ed if world peace is to be achiev ed, make the success of this year’s appeal more important than ever,” he said. “Then too,” he added, “there are the needs in Latin America that have been stressed by the Holy Father and for which ad ditional appropriations have had to be made.” Archbishop Alter extended an invitation to the Bishops to par ticipate in the campaign by in cluding their dioceses in the Laetare Sunday appeal and by appoihting diocesan directors for the 1960 drive. In the meantime, in N e w York, where CRS-NCWC has Empire State Building head quarters, Msgr. Edward E. Swanstrom, executive director, said the minimum goal of $5,- 000,000 provides the basis for maintaining the agency’s relief operations. In 1959, he said, the dona tions of U. S. Catholics enabled CRS-NCWC to function in 51 countries, among 40,000,000 needy people. “It also enabled CRS-NCWC to ship overseas for the third successive year more than one billion pounds of clothing, medi cines, and U. S. government sur plus food valued at more than $115,000,000,” he said. Since its inception in 1943, the Catholic agency has become the largest voluntary relief agency of its kind in the world, he said. In these 16 years, the total amount of food,, clothing, medi cines and other relief supplies shipped by the Bishops’ agency has totaled 5,310,999,101 pounds, with a value of $804,791,478, ac cording to CRS-NCWC records. While unemployment, poverty and other problems made it nec essary for CRS-NCWC to main tain large relief programs in Eu ropean areas, particularly in Spain, Portugal, Greece and Ita ly, the emphasis on the agency’s efforts during the period was concentrated on under-develop ed areas of Latin America, Asia, the Far East and Africa. In Europe, it concentrated its efforts on newly arriving refu gees, for whom integration' and resettlement support is avail able from the U. S. government and in supplying surplus food, clothing and other materials to refugee camps. PRIEST-SOCIOLOGIST SAYS CHILD’S SEX EDUCATION SHOULD BEGIN AT EARLY AGE HOLY SEE APPROVES SISTERHOOD PROVIDENCE, R. I., (NC) — A four-year-old sisterhood has been given official approval by the Sacred Congregation of Re ligious. A decree from the congrega tion approving the Society of Our Lady of Providence was re ceived by Bishop Russell J. Mc- Vinney of Providence. The so ciety, which opened its novitiate in Hillsgrove on September 8, 1955, now has 35 members. Generally some 15 to 20 years elapse between the first estab lishment of a sisterhood and ap proval by the Holy See. PIANO SERVICE POLLARD PIANO TUNERS St. Piux X High School JA. 4-2548 (N.C.W.C. News Service) ST. LOUIS — A child’s sex education should begin as soon as he begins to be aware of the world around him, probably when he is three or four' years old, a priest-sociologist said here. Father Donald F. Miller, C.SS.R,, associate editor of the Liguoriati magazine, and author of a score of pamphlets on so cial problems, made the state ment (Jan. 10) on a television program dealing with sex edu cation in school. “A child needs education in sex from the time he is around three to the time he is around 17,” the Redemptorist priest said. “It must be given gradu ally, over a long period of time. Only the parents are with a child over such a long period, and only the parents are equip ped with the knowledge and love to put the point across.” The priest said past experi ence has proven that when sex instruction is given to 20 or 30 pupils at a time, it often leads to immoral experimentation by the pupils. John E. Bardgett, St. Louis attorney, upheld the belief that sex education should be given in all schools, since it is a part of the body of truth, and schools should teach the truth. Father Miller answered by saying that much sex instruc tion was given by Catholic schools, in the form of instruc tions on Christian modesty, on the Sixth Commandment, and on marriage. “The subject is not taboo,” he said. “But giving detailed in structions, as has been proposed for the first time during the last 25 or 30 years, is quite an other matter.” “If mbn were angels and had no bodies, they could deal with sex instruction as they deal with chemistry or history. But men are not angels, and detail ed sex instruction can and does lead to moral danger.” He said detailed sex instruc tion, that parents should give their children includes three elements: the positive one of teaching God’s plan in regard to sex, the negative one of teaching the evils of sex abuses, and the teaching of both posi tive and negative truths against the background of religion. “There must be more in pro per sex education than scien tific facts alone,” the priest said. “Knowledge of sex, given in a purely scientific way, will often be more of a temptation than no sex education at all.” “Teaching sex is not like teaching biology. It is a very delicate matter, a matter which by its very nature must be re served to the sanctuary of the home,” he concluded. JEWELL'S BEAUTY SALON Highway 54, Forest Park (next to Bob’s Barbecue).
