WASHINGTON—Vice Presi
dent Richard M. Nixon called
upon the Catholic press to help
develop among Americans an
understanding of the moral basis
for laws that deal with moral
problems, such as civil rights.
Mr. Nixon also said the press,
through interpretive articles and
editorials, can make a great con
tribution to building the na
tion’s moral and spiritual
strength, a factor he said will
be decisive in the struggle with
communism.
The Vice President spoke in
formally (May 11) at the Key
note Luncheon of the 50th anni
versary convention of the Cath
olic Press Association, organiza
tion of U.S. and Canadian news
papers, magazines and other
publishing operations.
Mr. Nixon was introduced by
Auxiliary Bishop Philip M.
Hannan of Washington, editor-
in-chief of the Catholic Stand
ard, newspaper of the archdio
cese.
“We hear a great deal about
the responsibility of lawmakers
to deal with great issues, such
as civil rights,” said Mr. Nixon.
“But the passage of a civil
rights bill will not by itself
solve the problem of discrimina
tion and intolerance.”
“Too often there is a tendency
in dealing with a problem such
as this to ask, ‘why doesn’t Con
gress pass a law?’ But this
doesn’t solve the problem,” he
said.
“The fact that a law is on
the books is enough reason to
obey the law. But where the law
is passed in an area dealing
with moral problems, this is not
enough reason to act on the law.
VICE PRESIDENT
ADDRESSES EDITORS
There must be a moral basis
for- action,” he said.
“In civil rights,” he added,
“we must recognize the obliga
tion to avoid acts of discrimina
tion or intolerance not because
a law exists, but because it is
right to do so,” he said.
“We need to develop in all
the country an understanding
of the moral basis for non
discrimination. We need contin
uing support not just for the
law, but for what is right,” he
said.
Turning then to communism,
Mr. Nixon said he can see “no
greater error in meeting this
threat than to do so on the
grounds the communists choose.”
While expressing confidence
this country can outproduce the
communist countries militarilly

and economically, the Vice
President added, “to rest our
case on this is unworthy of our
country and tradition and de
prives us of the major advan
tage we have.”
He cited the warm greeting
given him last year in Warsaw,
Poland and said:
“Why did this happen? It
came about not because the
United States is rich and strong
—because the Soviet Union is
also rich and strong—but be
cause since the time of our
founding, we have stood for
more than that.
“We have stood for spiritual
and moral values and we must
present these today to the world,
but we can do it only to the
extent that we are morally and
spiritually strong.”
It is in this area, said Mr.
Nixon, that he sees a role for
the Catholic press in strengthen
ing the country’s moral and
spiritual awareness.
He praised the Catholic Press
Association on its anniversary
as “an organization that has
contributed so much and will
contribute much more to
America.”
OFFERED FOR
CHINESE
ROME (NC) — Prayers for
persecuted Chinese Catholics
were offered at a Mass sponsor
ed for the Church of Silence by
the International Marian Acad
emy.
His Eminence Paolo Cardinal
Marella offered the Mass in the
Basilica of St. M a r y Major.
Many representatives of coun
tries behind the Iron and Bam
boo curtains attended.
The Cardinal called the com
munist attempt to destroy Chi
na’s cultural traditions a form
of “cultural genocide” based on
“crude materialism.”
“Those people who perpetrate
it wish to destroy the bridges'
with the past and shake the
foundations of Chinese civiliza
tion . . . It is well known to
everyone that the principal aim
today is to destroy the family,”
he said.
He also said: “It would seem
that the state has adopted a uni
form and arbitrary pattern with
which it wishes to produce, by
force and terror, not free and
reasonable people but identical
human beings.”
What the Chinese leaders
have forgotten, Cardinal Marel
la said, is that all “true progress
brings with it a minimum of
historical continuity and the ra
tional development of cultural
values accumulated through the
centuries.”
The Cardinal recalled that
when the communists took over
in China, they believed that
science and progress would liq
uidate the small number of
Catholics in the country.
“But they did not suspect that
far from destroying religion,
science strengthens it,” he said.
These happy young Benedictine Sisters are anxious to welcome future missionaries to their
novitiate in Cullman, Alabama. From ihere they will go out to missions in Alabama and Florida
to bring souls into the Church.

CULLMAN, ALA.—WANTED!
Herioc American girls with
great love for God to bring the
joy of the Catholic Faith to
Southern missions in the U.S.A.
Only 3% of the population is
Catholic in this mission land!
Last year 17,000 people in the
Alabama diocese became Cath
olic. The converts would come
pouring in, in even greater
numbers if zealous young
American girls would join to
help the Sisters there in their
stupendous job.
The Benedictine Sisters whose
Motherhouse is in Cullman, Ala
bama are issuing a special, ur
gent call to all girls to join
them in the adventure of con
verting the Southland, U.S.A.
Scores of people in this area are
hungry to know more about the
Catholic religion if only there
were missionaries to reach
them.
SISTERS TEACH
NON-CATHOLIC TOO
Missions of the Benedictine
Sisters include a college in which
almost half of the students are
not Catholic! “What a field for
the missionary zeal of young
Americans, if only they will
come to help us swell our
ranks,” says Sister Maurus,
O.S.B., who is the novice mis
tress.
The Benedictines- also operate
twelve elementary schools, three
high schools, and one college.
Depending on her abilities and
. interests, a postulant may be
come a student, a gardener, a
nurse, a teacher, or a seamstress.
“Whatever the work, she begins
to understand that it is not
what she does so much as with
how much love she does it that
is important,” says Mother Mary

HOLY FATHER
SALUTES BENEDICTINES
The Benedictine order was
founded by St. Benedict of
whom Rope Pius XII said in.
1947, “Like a star in the dark
ness of night Benedict of Nursia
brilliantly shines, a glory not
only to Italy, but to the whole
church.”
Men and women have been
living his Holy Rule for four
teen unbroken centuries, and
every century claims its share
of Benedictine saints.
Besides the active mission
apostolate, this community puts
special emphasis on Liturgical
Divine Worship. “Let nothing
be preferred to the Work of
God” states (Chapter 43), of the
rule. With prayer a Sister
reaches out effectively to her
own mission field and to the
whole world where the Church
battles for souls.
Through the Holy Sacrifice of
the Mass, the Divine Office and
meditation the Sisters renew
their strength for battle, work,
and suffering and for perfecting
themselves in the virtues of
Christ. Her life of sacrifice be
comes a loving daily ascent of
Calvary.
SIGN OF A VOCATION
How can you know if you
have a vocation to the missions
in America?
1. Do you feel attracted to
labor for souls in an area that
has fewer Catholics than many
parts of Africa,
2. Do you have the desire?
This means you will have the
will to give yourself wholly to
God, to do something more for
Him, to bring all the sacrifices
that His loving will requires in

the religious life. It includes the
desire to work for others, for
the Church, for the reformation
of your own life, ’ to strive for
holiness. This desire is not emo
tional or romantic, but a con
stant attraction or better, the
firm will to fulfill the duties of
this state.
3. Do you have a love of pray
er? This is another sign of seek
ing God. The Sister finds God
in prayer; in frequent reception
of the Sacraments. This does not
mean that she is always on her
knees, but rahter on her toes
for the Presence of God.
4. Do you have a Community
spirit? A sociable disposition
(which can also be cultivated),
unselfishness, thoughtfulness of
others, courtesy, readiness for
obedience, ability to mix with,
everybody, friendliness, and be
ing satisfied with the common
life, are indispensable charac
teristics.
5. Do you have physical, men
tal, emotional and moral fitness?
6. Do you have freedom from
outside obligations, debts or im
pediments?
If, for instance, parents or
some close relatives need sup
port, then Church Law asks the
candidate to look for them first.
7. Do you have acceptance by
the Community. The superiors
will help you weigh your rea
sons and judge the above signs
according to the mind of St.
Benedict. They have your wel
fare at heart and will decide
in terms of your happiness.

American mission novitiate and
