All Forms Of Birth Control,
Even 'Rhythm Method/ Can Be
Harmful, Psychiatrist Says
(N.C.W.C. News Service)
NEW YORK — Every form of birth control, in
cluding the so-called “rhythm method,” can be psycho
logically harmful, a Catholic psychiatrist said here
(March 13).
Dr. John FR. Cavanagh of Washington, D. C., a
private practitioner and special lecturer in pastoral
psychiatry at the Catholic University of America, said
the newly developed oral tablet might be the worst
since it created fears about the physical effects of pro
longed use.
THE BULi-iHiTiN, March 31, 1962—PAG.& 3
Religion in Russia today is a big, big generality, differing from district to district, area
to area, flourishing in one place, extinct in another. Although the Soviets preach freedom
of religion, religion is anything but free—it is marked for extinction. An example of tho
change is shown in the above photo of a Russian Orthodox Church in Moscow being “ren
ovated”; it will become a museum or a hall of propaganda. The church grounds are des
tined to become a “peoples’ park and recreation area.” In Russia today, religion is still
the opium of the people and has no place in the communist utopia. (NC Photos)

Reds Want To Preserve
Old Church; Cardinal
Seeks Demolition
BOLOGNA, Italy (NC) —
The more than 300-year-old
church of St. George here has
become a bone of contention
between Catholics and com
munists: the Catholics want to
tear it down and the commun
ists want to preserve it.
This topsy-turvy situation is

characteristic of the Don Cam-
illo type of problem that ex
ists in this heavily communis
tic area which is the capital
of what is known as Italy’s
“Red Belt.”
The church of St. George,
located on a downtown back-
street, has not been used for
religious functions for some
time. However, because of its
architectural beauty it is con
sidered a national monument
by the Italian government.
The proposal to demolish the
church was advanced by Gia
como Cardinal Lercaro, Arch
bishop of Bologna. The Arch
bishop’s reasoning was that,
though the church is an archi
tectural monument, it is out of
use and Bologna’s booming
suburbs are badly in need of
new churches.
The Cardinal proposed that
the old church be torn down
and that the property it stands
on be sold, the proceeds to be
used to build badly needed
churches on the outskirts of
Bologna. He accepted a pro
posal that the handsome 17-
century facade be preserved
and reassembled as the facade
of a new church.
At this point, however, the
Mayor of Bologna, Giuseppe
Dozza, registered opposition.
Dozza, a communist who has
long been in conflict with the
Archbishop, offered to buy the
church.
Cardinal Lercaro refused to
sell to the mayor. As he has se
cured the agreement of the na
tional government to the
building demolition, it appears
likely that the church will be
torn down. However, the peo
ple of Bologna are divided and
the fate of St. George’s is still
being debated throughout the
city.
Actions speaker louder than
words, so put eloquence in
your conduct.

He spoke (March 13) before
the Guild of Catholic Psychia
trists during a session on fer
tility control. The guild, a na
tional organization with some
400 members, held its 13th an
nual scientific meeting here
from March 12 to 14.
“Any form of birth control,”
Dr. Cavanagh asserted, “frus
trates a natural need and is
likely to become a source of
internal discord, of deceit and
of intrapsychic conflict.”
The “rhythm method,” or
periodic continence during a
woman’s ovulation period, es
pecially creates feelings of
frustration, he said.
“Frustration, in turn, causes
hostility, which, in its extreme
degree, aims at the destruction
of the source toward which it
is directed,” he added.
Where hostility is repressed,
he said, it is likely to lead to
feelings of depression with its
symptoms of chronic fatigue,
insomnia, loss of ambition and
loss of sexual desire.
“For these reasons,” Dr.
Cavanagh continued, “the
practice of birth control should
not be undertaken lightly. For
a slight possible good, are we
to introduce additional psychic
traumata and marital unhappi
ness?
“Unless sufficient reasons
are present, all married cou
ples have a positive obligation
to procreate ... the married
couple should seek only spac
ing of children, not perma
nent avoidance of conception.”
Dr. Cavanagh, who is the
guild’s treasurer, maintained
that the results of using oral
contraceptives were no differ
ent from those of other meth
ods.
“The psychological effects
are the same, perhaps worse,
because it creates a new haz
ard for the woman as a result
of the frequent warnings given
that serious later consequenc
es of the use of these drugs
may result,” he warned.
“Whether more sustained ad
ministration will lead to or
ganic damage, none can say,
and yet, there are many who
are willing to use them experi
mentally on large groups of in
nocent women,” he observed.
Tests of such a contraceptive
pill have been made in Puerto
Rico, Los Angeles and other
places, he said.
Father John C. Ford, S.J.,
moral theology professor at the
Catholic University, told the
psychiatrists that the oral pills,
which have' a contraceptive
effect, might be used under
certain conditions.
He said that while the
Church forbids use of the pills
as a contraceptive device, they
could be used to help a woman
with irregular menstrual peri
ods who is justified in employ
ing the “rhythm Method” to
regularize the periods.
This treatment, based on
competent medical judgment,
may be used even though it
interferes with ovulation for
a temporary period, he declar
ed.
Father Ford maintained that
the practice of periodic conti
nence has opened up “new per
spectives” as to the roles of
human and Divine Providence
in planning a family.
Formerly, the problem had
for the most part to be left to
divine Providence, he said, be
cause, practically speaking,
there was not a feasible and
legitimate method open to the
Lunsford-Wilson Go.

“The reverence and silence
of the worshippers, the singing
of the choir, and the carefully
prepared sermon stirred me
profoundly. After the conse
cration when the priest raised
aloft the Eucharistic host, I
felt I was truly in the presence
of God and wanted with all my
heart to join with the cele
brant and the worshippers in
offering up the sacrificial Vic
tim, Jesus Christ, in atone
ment for our sins.
“I determined to study the
Catholic religion and read ev
erything I could find about it.
Later I called upon Father T.
M. O’Rourke and he arranged
for Mother Mary Magdeline of
the Sisters of Mercy to instruct
me. Unmistakable was the evi
dence of the foundation of the
Catholic Church by Christ,
who promised to be with her
'all days even unto the con
summation of the world.’ Im
pressive too was the list of

us new insights into the pos
sibilities of the glorified
body." The nun also under
lined that the brilliance of a
soul's flight to eternal hap
piness goes far beyond the
feat even of a Glenn. Much
spiritual contemplation, as
well as scientific knowledge
is associated with this mile
stone in human adventure.
Glenn's own reflections on
God are an inspiration
equally as thrilling to me as
his space flight. Glenn said
recently that it was foolish
to assert that because he had
ridden above the atmosphere
that he knew the nature of
God anymore than anyone
else. "He'll be wherever I
go," he added.

• AMERICA can be doubly
proud of this hero in her God
and country tradition. Glenn
is repeatedly cited in the press
for his religious convictions.
His congressional speech will
long be remembered as a clas
sic, ending in the plea that this
nation be given the Divine
wisdom to use this new know
ledge of outer space wisely.
Glenn’s sense of dedication has
impressed those who have in
terviewed him, including Pres
ident Kennedy. Talk about a
sense of vocation! Glenn has
been quoted as saying: “I was
brought up believing that you
are placed on earth with sort
of a 50-50 proposition. We are
placed here with certain capa-
iblities. It is up to each one of
us to use those talents and
capabilities as best we can. If
we do, I think there is a power
greater than any of us that
will place the opportunities in
our way, that will certainly
see that I am taken care of if
I do my part.” Yet it is grati
fying also to know that there
are men behind Glenn who are
equally dedicated and reli
gious. Wernher Von Braun, the
famed missile scientist, has
said that in our modern world
many seem to feel that science
has made religious ideas un
timely or old-fashioned. Von
Braun has said that “science
has found that nothing can dis
appear without a trace. Now, if
God applies this fundamental
principle to the most minute
and insignificant parts of His
universe doesn’t it make sense
to assume that He applies it to
the masterpiece of His crea
tion — the human soul?” As
Americans we can indeed re
joice that we are witnessing a
renaissance, of sort, as a na
tion under God. May we ever
be.
