MORE PAPAL VOLUNTEERS
SOUGHT FOR S. AMERICA
LIMA, Peru (NC) — Urgent
requests for more Papal Vol
unteers from the United States
greet Victor Fernandez, S.J.,
in every Latin American city
he visits.
Father Fernandez, national
director of the Papal Volun
teers, with headquarters in
Washington, D. C., is stopping
here on a tour of Latin Ameri
ca to study possibilities of ex
panding ■ the volunteers’ ac
tivities.
Fifteen Papal Volunteers in
Peru are directing youth pro
grams, running a summer
camp, teaching in parish
schools and establishing social
service centers.
Father Fernandez reported a
great demand for community
development workers. He said
that in Ecuador there is a
movement to try and stem the
migration of the population
from the rural areas to the
cities by means of making life
more attractive in the farm
areas.
The priest is visiting Mexi
co, Peru, Chile, Bolivia and
Brazil. Volunteers in Brazil
are running a hospital in Bel
em at the mouth of the Ama
zon.
An encouraging project, he
said, is the attempt here in
Lima to enlist Peruvians into
the movement. Sally Hanlon
and Father Rudolph Mascia-
relli, both of Boston, are plan
ning work for young men and
women here in Lima who will
collaborate with the U. S. Pa
pal Volunteers.
“After all,” Father Fernan
dez emphasized, “Papal Vol
unteers, like all missioners, are
working to put themselves out
of a job, turning over the apos-
tolate to the people on the
spot, when they achieve a ca
pacity to do the work.”

Council To Set
‘House In Order’
(NCWC News Service)
WASHINGTON—The forth
coming ecumenical council
will seek to “set our house in
order” as a pre-condition for
religious unity, Bishop Allen
J. Babcock of Grand Rapids,
Mich., said here.
Bishop Babcock, a member
of the council’s Preparatory
Commission on the Lay Apos-
tolate, said His Holiness Pope
John XXIII hopes the council
will modernize the Church, in
those areas where moderniza
tion is necessary, “to make it
easier for those who have left
the Church to return.”
But the council itself is not
intended to achieve religious
unity directly, the. Bishop said
here (Jan. 20).
He said press reports of the
council have somewhat dis
torted. its purpose by giving
the impression that it will
seek to reestablish religious
unity by its own actions.
Rather, he said, the council
will aim to create the prior
conditions necessary for such
unity.
Bishop Babcock spoke at a
banquet during a special
three-day leadership meeting
sponsored by the National
Council of Catholic Men. He is
episcopal chairman of the De
partment of Lay Organizations
of the National Catholic Wel
fare Conference, of which the
NCCM is a part.
Some 150 presidents of dio
cesan men’s councils and na
tional Catholic men’s groups
attended the NCCM meeting,
which revolved about ' the
theme, “The Crisis in Lay
Leadership.”
At the banquet a copy of
the bust of St. Thomas More
which will become NCCM’s
national award to diocesan lay
leaders was presented to Arch
bishop Egiaio Vagnozzi, Apos
tolic Delegate to the United
States. Msgr. Gerolamo Prigi-
one, Auditor of the Apostolic
Delegation, accepted the bust
on behalf of Archbishop Vag
nozzi, who was unable to be
present.
Bishop Babcock said the
ecumenical council will be
“the Church alive.” The Pope
intends that it show the world
that the Church “is; not some
thing of ages past, but alive in
the world today,” he said.
He urged the Catholic lay
leaders to pray and to get oth
ers to pray for the success of
the council. He stressed that
its success will depend in large
part on whether its decisions
and adtions are “accepted with
zealous hearts by the Catho
lics of the world.
Earlier, the NCCM meeting
heard Father Joseph B. Gre-
million, socio-economic direc
tor of Catholic Relief Services
National Catholic Welfare
Conference, declare that the
Catholic layman has a stake in
the well-being of the world’s
underdeveloped nations both
as an American citizen and
as a member of the Church.
Military, political and eco
nomic factors all demonstrate
the “impossibility of isolation
ism” as a U. S. policy today, he
said.
As for the religious view of
the underdeveloped nations,
Father Gremillion added,
Catholics must be “universal
in our concern . . . The Church
is for all people of all time.”
Stressing the importance of
foreign aid programs designed
to help new nations stand on
their own feet, he said: “To
give man bread is a Christian
action, but to enable him to
grow his own bread is even
more important and more
Christian.”
He noted that much of the
CRS-NCWC program is aimed
at transmitting “organizational
know-how” to* the Church in
the underdeveloped nations.
Catholic Relief Services is
also giving emphasis to “self-
help” programs, including ag
ricultural training, credit un
ions, savings and loan associa
tions, and radio schools, he
said.

NEGLECTING NEEDS OF THE
UNDERDEVELOPED NATIONS
SEEN IS THREAT TO PEACE
(NCWC News Service)
CHICAGO — Paul Hoffman,
managing director of the Unit
ed Nations Special Fund,
warned here that if the legiti
mate aspirations of the under
developed nations are ignored,
the world faces “one explosive
outbreak after another.”
On the other hand, Hoffman
told the John A. Ryan Forum,
if during the 1960’s these na
tions make substantial pro
gress, “the world can become
a safer and more comfortable
place in which to live.”
“Perhaps the best way to
sum up the whole political sit-
"Now We Can Talk"
Says Protestant-
ST. PAUL, Minn., (NC) — A
Protestant theologian charac
terized developing Catholic
Protestant relations by saying:
“We are now in a position
where we can talk.”
The summary was offered
by Dr. Franz Hildebrandt, pro
fessor of historical theology at
Drew Theological Seminary,
Madison, N. J., in a statement
to the Catholic Bulletin, news
paper of the St. Paul archdio
cese and the New Ulm diocese.
Dr. Hildebrandt, summariz
ing the Methodist section of
the Minnesota Pastors’ Confer
ence here, said, however, that
Catholic-Protestant differences
on the Mass present an “in
superable barrier” to unity.
“The doctrines of the Mass
and those of Protestant com
munion are mutually exclu
sive,” he said.
The Methodist theologian
said efforts toward unity
among Catholics and Protest
ants have been most successful
in Bible studies and liturgy.
He said His Holiness Pope
John XXIII’s statements on so
cial issues and peace also con
tribute to closer relations.
uation is to simply ask a ques
tion — how many violent rev
olutions can we afford?” he
said. Hoffman, whose agency
is engaged in aiding the so
cial and economic develop
ment of underdeveloped coun
tries, said their progress will
benefit the United States eco
nomically.
He said that if the per capi
ta income of the underdevel
oped countries were to rise one
per cent yearly in the 1960’s, it
•would mean an added $7 bit
lion in U. S. exports by 1970.
The “underlying reason” for
underdevelopment, he said
(Jan. 19), is “underutilization
of their physical and human
resources.”
Citing India as, an example
he noted that a group of agri
cultural experts had concluded
that India has the soil and
water to feed well not only its
present population, but twice
its present population.
He stressed that education
and technical training must
take place before a country
can achieve significant econo
mic development. In this con
nection, he urged that “new
emphasis” be given to expand
ing and adjusting education in
the underdeveloped countries
to provide a well balanced pro
gram on all levels.
Hoffman urged that we “put
an end to all talk that implies
that assistance from one nation
to another is an act of chari
ty.”
“There is only one relation
ship that is sound — and that
is one of partnership. Only a
genuine partnership will en
courage the low-income coun
tries to do their prideful maxi
mum to help themselves,” he
said.
The John A. Ryan Forum is
sponsored by the Catholic
Council on Working Life and
the adult education centers of
the Chicago archdiocese.
The State Of The Catholic Press
By Father Albert J. Nevins, N.M.
President, Catholic Press Association
Editor, MARYKNOLL Magazine, Maryknoll, N. Y.
The Catholic press is assigned an essential role in the
mission of the Church, that mission which is basically the
salvation of mankind. Through the Catholic press the faith
ful are not only informed on the life of the Church and their
part in it but, more important, they are formed to become
apostolic imitators of their Divine Master.
The Catholic press is the voice of the hierarchy, of the
teaching magisterium of the Church. For this reason the
responsible Catholic insists on having Catholic publications
in his or her name. While Catholic Press Month presents
the opportunity to remind all Catholics of the function of
their press, it is also an opportunity for an annual assessment
of the state of the press.
Catholic Press Month 1962 marks another period of
steady growth both in the. number of vital publications and
in total readership. The 141 Catholic newspapers of the
United States and Canada now have an annual circulation
of more than 270 million copies; our 405 magazines circulate
more than 283 million copies a year—a total well over a
half billion.
The range of our publications covers every interest,
taste and age group—men, women, boys, girls, families—
news, commentary, criticism, education, entertainment, de
votional and professional topics. We also have an inter
national flavor since we publish in French, Spanish, Slovak,
Polish, Lithuanian, Romanian, Czech, and Italian.
Our publications have risen to new heights of profes
sionalism. One indication of such acceptance is the increas
ing realization on the part of advertisers that the Catholic
press is their key to the penetration of the fastest growing
market in the United States and Canada. Another is the ex
panding number of awards our press is receiving in com
petition with its secular counterpart.
In short, Catholic Press Month 1962 finds our press
robust and expanding. Our publications are larger, more
colorful, more creative than ever. They are carefully printed,
tastefully illustrated, excitingly put together. Circulation is
at an all time high. We do not intend to remain stable but
will continue our strong advance.
Catholic Prime
Minister Quits
DAR ES SALAAM, Tangan
yika (NC) — The Catholic lay
leader who became Tangan
yika’s first prime minister,
Julius Nyerere, unexpectedly
resigned from his post six
weeks after this east African
country won its independence.
But Nyerere, who remains
head of the nation’s biggest
political party, the Tanganyi
ka African National Union, is
expected to* continue, to play a
leading role in the nation’s
political life. He picked his
successor, Prime Minister Ra-
shidi Kawawa. He said he had
also personally selected other
ministers of the new cabinet.
(The Tanganyika delegation
to the United Nations said
Nyerere had resigned to give
his full time to party matters.)
At a party meeting here
earlier in January extremist
elements of the partj^ opposed
the moderate policies of the
former premier.
Nyerere said in a statement
on his resignation:
“I have taken 'this action
and have won the support of
colleagues after a long debate
. . . because of our firm belief
that this is the best way for'
achieving the new objective—
creation of a country in which
the people take a full and act
ive part in the fight against
poverty, ignorance and dis-
