PAGE 6—THE BULLETIN, March 3, 1962 Tribute Paid Cardinal Muench At Requiem Mass His Native Milwaukee (N.C.W.C. News Service) * MILWAUKEE—Tribute was paid to the memory of a distinguished churchman when a Solemn Pontifical Mass of Requiem was offered here for Aloisius Cardinal Muench in the cathedral of his native city. The greatness of his contributions to the cause of religion in varied assign ments as priest and bishop was detailed by Bishop William P. O’Connor of Madi son, Wis., at the Mass offered by Archbishop William E. Cousins of Milwaukee. The Cathedral of St. John was filled to capacity with clergy and lay friends of the Cardinal. Many of the priqsts were his former students at St. Francis Seminary here. Card inal Muench was professor of dogmatic theology and later rector of the seminary from 1922 until he was named Bish op of Fargo, N. D., in October, 1935. “He has returned to this city of his birth to receive the tri bute of his many friends among the clergy and laity/’ said Bishop O’Connor, an asso ciate of the Cardinal on the seminary faculty for 13 years. “He left a part of himself here as seminary professor and rector,” said Bishop O’Connor. “The imprint of his greatness in priestly zeal and learning is still fresh among many of our clergy in Wisconsin and other northwest states. “He left something of him self in the Diocese of Fargo, North Dakota, a See he ruled with rare insight in the prob lems of the rural community. He had the vision to see and emphasize the importance of the social sciences among priests and people. “When called to assume the heavy burden and the heavy responsibility of a diplomat of the Church, he accounted him self with great distinction even though he had no diplomatic training. He left a great part of himself in Germany, to whose survival and revival he con tributed so much. “Finally, when called to Rome to receive the honor and dignity of Prince of the Church and to assist in its government he left something there of that great priesthood which we in this city and state of his birth had known and loved and admired in him.” Cardinal Muench’s remains were brought here (Feb. 19) from O’Hare Field in Chicago after a flight from Rome where he died (Feb. 15). The body lay in state in the Cathe dral of St. John (from 3 to 10 p. m., Feb. 20). Following the Requiem Mass, Archbishop Cousins im parted the absolution. The re mains were then flown to Far go for solemn funeral services (Feb. 23) in the cathedral of St. Mary. In a tribute to his memory Archbishop Cousins stated that “there is a real mourning in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, since his relationships here were so strong and because he kept them so fresh- “The early part of his min istry was dedicated to the ser vice of the Church in this area and his tenure at St. Francis Seminary made him well-ac quainted with many of our priests. Many were his personal friends from seminary days and many remember him well as the rector who presided over their preparation for the priesthood. “These were associations that meant much to him. For he came back to Milwaukee often to renew them after his duties took him to Fargo. “Wisconsin as a state has lost one of its outstanding cit izens, one who brought new honor to her name in the field of diplomacy as Papal Nuncio to the new Government of Germany. He carried into that work principles and standards reflecting the American values to which he was so deeply dedicated. “His many friends here, in the priesthood and in lay life, will hold him in revered memory for many years.” Albert Cardinal Meyer, Archbishop of Chicago, recall ed that “it has been my privi lege to have known Cardinal Muench for many years. As a young priest I served under him when he was rector of St. Francis Seminary. We had many things in common. We were both born in Milwaukee and we were both ordained for the archdiocese of Milwaukee. “We were fellow professors at St. Francis Seminary in Milwaukee, where both of us also served as rector of the Legion Condmens Japanese Movie NEW YORK, (NC) — The National Legion of Decency announced here it has placed the Japanese movie “Odd Ob session” in its condemned classification. The legion posted the follow ing objection to the movie “The concentration upon sex ual perversion which attends the development of the theme of this film is compounded by grossly suggestive treatment The picture, therefore, is mor ally unacceptable in a mass medium of entertainment.” seminary. His loss is that of a dear personal friend, whose friendship I have cherished through many years. “It is not for me to attempt to assess the greatness of his contribution to the cause of re ligion. Everywhere—whether as rector or Bishop or Papal Nuncio — his work has been recognised as outstanding. Particularly, I would say he was gifted with a keen, ana lytical mind, with a sureness and soundness of judgment, and with a kindly and friendly disposition. “I am confident that when his biography is written — as it surely deserves to be writ ten — he will be recignized as one of the truly great church men in the history of the Cath olic Church in the United States.” For a little over a year, Cardinal Muench had held the title of Cardinal Protector of the School Sisters of Notre Dame, the community of nuns who taught him as a boy at St. Boniface school here. “We deeply regret that his term as our Cardinal Protector was so brief,” said Mother Mary Antonice, Provincial Su perior. “From the days of his boyhood at St. Boniface, he was a sincere friend of the School Sisters of Notre Dame. “We are grateful for the pri vilege of having known so well this kind and unusually discerning prelate. Fatherly in terest and quiet encourage ment marked his relationship with our congregation.” LEARNING THE MASS BY TV Pope Voices Congratulations On Glenn Space Flight During Audience With Robert Kennedy VATICAN CITY, (NC)—His Holiness Pope John XXIII ex pressed his congratulations on the space flight of U.
