Catholic Press Played Leading
Role In Regaining Widespread
Respect
By John A. Greaces
(N.C.W.C. News Service)
LONDON — The widespread
respect for the Church in Brit
ain today is due in great part
to this country’s Catholic press.
For over a century it has
played a major role in the ef
forts of British Catholics—who
faced persecution and discrimi
nation after the Reformation—
to regain acceptance and a tol
erable share in the national life.
Some 200 periodicals of all
types with an aggregate circu
lation of more than 700,000 are
now published under Catholic
auspices here. No other relig
ious body in the country has
such a powerful means of pub
licizing its efforts.
V/hile most of the Catholic
publications have small circu
lations, four periodicals are
household words in Britain and
are well known in all parts of
the English-speaking world.
These are the three Catholic
weekly newspapers — the Uni
verse, the Catholic Herald and
the Catholic Times — and a
weekly review, the Tablet.
They are entirely owned by
laymen and run independently
of the bishops, but with their
approval. Their circulation is
well over 500,000. This means
that about one Catholic in ev
ery 10 in the United Kingdom

For Church In Britain
is a reader of one or another
of the four publications. By
comparison, however, the gen
erally sensational and lurid sec
ular Sunday press sells approxi
mately 27 million copies.
The influence of Britain’s
Catholic press has a serious lim
itation. It does not usually reach
the nation’s large non-Catholic
majority. Even the four nation
al Catholic weeklies, though
they are sold on the larger
newsstands, are not generally
available to the average non-
Catholic. And Britain has no
general newspaper that deals
with the ordinary run of na
tional and international news
from a Catholic point of view.
As a result it is not enough
for a Catholic who wishes to be
well informed on general world
affairs to read only a Catholic
periodical. He must also read a
secular daily and also perhaps
a secular weekly.
Because of this arguments for
and against the merger of two
or more of the national Catholic
weeklies into one Catholic-
oriented general paper have
gone on for years. Some persons
have even dreamed of a Catho
lic-controlled daily.
But the difficulties of finance,
printing and distribution are
immense and Catholic newsmen
generally believe such a ven
ture to be impossible in present
circumstances, particularly be
cause such a publication would
have to attract a large- non-
Catholic readership away from
its alluring secular competitors.
The secular press here is no
longer hostile to the Church.
But it is materialistic and ag
nostic in outlook and gives little
attention to religious and spi
ritual matters. When it does, it
usually reflects the Protestant
viewpoint. Catholic events that
are not strictly “Catholic” and
capture the interest of every
one, such as the death and elec
tion of a pope, are given wide
coverage and are usually han
dled fairly and honestly.
The Sunday secular papers,
with several notable exceptions,
have a generally low moral
tone. In April the Press Coun
cil, the newspaper industry’s
voluntary self-regulatory body,
publicly condemned three of
best-selling Sunday papers for
sex articles which were called
“a disgrace to British journal
ism.”
Competing with these for a
place in every Catholic home
are the national Catholic week
lies, each proud of its own spe
cial character and traditions.
The three newspapers carry
reports of the main Catholic
events at home and abroad,
along with feature columns,
comment, art and literary criti
cism, doctrinal discussions and

They get their international
news largely from the N.C.W.C.

ices and Fides, mission news
agency in Rome. They also have
their own correspondents in the
larger foreign nations. Their do
mestic news comes, from local
correspondents, secular agen
cies and their own reportorial
staffs.
Britain has no national Cath
olic news service of its own and
no Catholic press center. Offi
cial Catholic pronouncements of
national importance, such as
statements by the bishops, are
issued to the secular press from
the office of the Westminster
archdiocese. Msgr. Derek Wor-
loek, secretary of His Eminence
William Cardinal Godfrey,
Archbishop of Westminster, acts
as public relations officer to the
secular as well as the Catholic
press.
THE UNIVERSE, with a cir
culation of close to 300,000, is
one of the largest Catholic
newspapers in the English-
speaking world. Its success has
been achieved by attractively
displayed straight news reports
and photographs and a succes
sion of top-ranking Catholic
writers.
It sprang into vigorous mod
ern journalistic life after World
War I under the news editor
ship of the late George Bernard,
an Englishman with journalistic
experience in the United States,
part of it on the staff of the
N.C.W.C. News Service. G. K.
Chesterton, Hilaire Belloc, and
Msgr. Ronald Knox were among
the paper’s contributors. It is
now under the management of
Douglas Woodruff, Catholic
publisher, author and historian.

whose circulation is 120,000,

pretation and editorial comment

RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH
EXCOMMUNICATES CLERIC WHO
PUBLICLY EMBRACED ATHEISM
PARIS (NC)—The Russian
Orthodox Church has excom
municated a former professor of
Holy Scripture in Leningrad
who publicly embraced atheism,
it is reported here.
A decree of the Sacred Synod
of the Russian Orthodox Church,
published in the “Review of
the Patriarchate” of Moscow,
publicly excommunicated the
apostate priest Aleksander Os-
sipov, two other priests and a
layman. It also declared ex
communicate all clergymen and
laymen who publicly blaspheme
the name of God after having
abjured their faith.
This was reported by Father
Antoine Wenger, A.A., editor of
the national Catholic daily
newspaper, La Croix.
Of the excommunications, Fa
ther Wenger wrote:
"This act bears witness to
great courage on the part of
the Orthodox Church. It seems
to us to be one of the most im
portant acts of its public life
in relation to the government
and the party, at least since
1945."
The Assumptionist priest, an
expert on affairs of the sepa
rated churches, remarked that
circumstances of recent defec
tions from the Russian Ortho
dox church lead one to believe
the church has been infiltrated
by communists. He said that
phrases used by Ossipov and his
fellow apostotates indicate that
“the small number of priests
who are today leading the anti-
religious fight entered the
church and took holy orders
like wolves disguised as shep
herds.”
Father Wenger reproduced a
letter written by Professor
Miroliubov of the Leningrad
seminary to his former col
league, Ossipov. It read, in part:
"I beg you in the name of
Eternity, do not yield to anti-
religious propaganda, in parti
cular to the struggle against
Christianity. Everything earthly
lasts but a moment, whereas the
soul will be forever unhappy
without Christ, conqueror of
death and of hell. We cannot
fight against God, from whom
comes life, the earth, man and
everything that exists.
"There are many hard paths
for us. It is everywhere possible
to live honestly, but do not
commit blasphemy against God.
That would be criminal and
senseless. If you have lost faith,
that is not gain but rather mis
fortune, Do not draw others into
risbelief, for by doing that you
would not bring glory upon
yourself but shame and dis
honor. I love you as before."

THE CATHOLIC TIMES,
which has a circulation of 74,-
000, changed its character dra
matically earlier this year. Af
ter 20 years as a straight news
paper rival of the Universe, it
switched to a policy of stressing

new team of specialists.

Mr. Woodruff, interprets world

It has a strong literary flavor

end. It is edited by Father An-
