DOMESTIC NEWS FOREIGN NEWS Archbishop Hallinan: "NORTH, SOUTH AMERICANS MUST LIVE AS BROTHERS” TO COMBAT COMMUNISM MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (NC) - North and South Americans must make a Christian effort to live as brothers in the Wes tern Hemisphere because com munism thrives where Chris tian justice is forgotten, the Archbishop of Atlanta, Ga., warned here. Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan of Atlanta spoke at a dinner (Sept. 2) honoring Francis Car dinal Spellman, Archbishop of New York, in the Hotel Fon- tainbleau. The Cardinal offici ated at the ordination of Father Daniel Sanchez, a Cuban refu gee who completed his theo logical studies in the United States. Eight other visiting members of the Hierarchy were present at the ordination rites held in the Miami Beach Convention Hall. Thousands of Cuban ref ugees were in the congregation. During the dinner Cardinal Spellman made a $10,000 gift to the Miami diocese. He said it was to “Help in educational projects.’’ He noted that Miami’s Bishop Coleman F. Carroll “has had a terrific handicap to meet because Cu ban children who go to public schools are helped by the U.S. Government, but those in par ochial schools do not receive: such help.’’ “They say it is unconstitu tional,’’ Cardinal Spellman commented. Gov. Farris Bryant told the dinner guests Florida was bles sed by the presence of Cardinal Spellman. He also asserted: “It can truly be said that with out the open handed, open heart ed, continued feeling and care of the Catholic Church and the "Catholic laity, what has been accomplished here for our Cu ban friends could not possibly have been done.” The ordination of Father San chez by Cardinal Spellman is a sympol of “cooperation of the Americas,” Archbishop Hallin an said. “The power of the Gospel to speak to all men has been diminished by man’s refusal to live by the Gospel he has heard,” the Atlanta prelate as serted. “The great driving force of Christian grace has been hobbled by the way Chris tians themselves neglect and abuse it. In our nation we are only starting to rid ourselves of the bitterness engendered by the fact of racial color, and in deed, by the fact of religious creed. We have much to learn, and much to repent.” Nearly five centuries after the arrival of Columbus Ameri cans still live “Like stran gers,” Archbishop Hallinan re minded. “We need not lose one whit of proper pride, loyalty and ob edience to our particular na tion. Nor need we abandon a common concern for all human ity, of every color, in every land, In one sense it is a simple matter of geography,” the prelate explained. “Since we all live on a long slice of land, it is imperative that we try to live like brothers. If we avoid fuzzy schemes and idle dreams, can we not walk for ward to a fuller title —' a citizen of the Americas'? Only the little mind and the faint heart will see this as a denial of national unity and national rights.” Emphasizing that those who live in the Americas have the same reasons for fear and for confidence, Archbishop Hallin an said that “Noisy nation alism” and “private apathy” are just as dangerous as com munism. When the social or der of lands that are heavily Catholic is sickly with injus tice, there is good reason to fear the cancer of commun ism he warned. “When the chest swells with proper national pride, that is one thing,” he said. “But when the head swells with national ego, that is something else and something far worse.” “Communism is monolithic, and quite easy to spot,” he commented. “But nationalism wears many coats, and speaks many tongues. It may be rau cous like fascism, vicious like nazism, or polite and smug and condescending. Nationalism is a businessman absorbing an other country’s oil, or ruler absorbingranother nation’s ter ritory. “Nationalism is a Yankee preacher in South America sneering at the people’s dev otion to Our Blessed Mother, or a foreign visitor to the United States sneering at the pragmatism, the 'practicality of our Catholicism. It is the refusal to share, to learn, to sympathize,” he declared. In addition to communism and nationalism apathy and ATLANTA complacency, which have sap ped the Christian vitality, are to be feared, the prelate dec lared. ‘The pessimist totals up the fears and cries out in despair, ‘Enoughl’ But the man who is cast in a different mold, the mold of the apostles, and their smiling hopeful successor in the chair of Peter, Pope John XXIII, cries ‘Enough’ for a different reason. “Whether he be North or South American, he counts his resources and he is cpnficteot;. t Whether he cries out in Span ish or Portuguese or English, his cry is trusting and clear, i Sutter & McLellan 1023 MORTGAGE GUARANTEE BUILDING JAckson 5-2086 ATLANTA.

Outlining the program of the Latin American Bishops’ Coun cil for improvement in the fields of education. Christian doc trine, social justice and char ity, and communication, Arch bishop Hallinan said the priests, Religious, and laity of Latin America are meeting the fears that disturb those nations with blunt questions and honest an swers. He cited the new Alliance of Progress as “a giant step in the right direction,” which “faces challenges of almost superhuman difficulty, and which must harmonize Latin dignity with North American organization and system.’’ The framework for coopera tion in the Americas, both re ligious and secular, needs more understanding and love, the Archbishop said. “We can learn from the Lat in American’s sense of dignity. We can learn from their ex ample of deep faith and we can give to Latin America our own good gifts as Catholics in the United States: our love of the sacraments; our sacri fices for Christian education and for Christian works of com passion; and perhaps most sig nificantly, the working example of how we live without loss and without compromise in a soc iety of many religions. “Every good gift is from God, and His grace can ener gize the Christian of every POPE JOHN ON ECUMENICAL COUNCIL: "Expect No New Doctrines - - Sensational Formulas” VATICAN CITY, (Radio, NC) - His Holiness Pope John XXIII said here that the coming ecu- continent. Ours is the task of perfecting each his own spirit, the Latin spirit and the North American spirit,’’ Archbishop Hallinan said. “Diverse cultures should feed, nor starve, each other. In one particular place in our country, history has violently thrown together the elements of this dream. Here in Miami, Lat in and North American Cath olics live and worship side by side, under the prophetic vis ion of an outstanding churchman Bishop Coleman F. Carroll. “Certainly we pray, as the Cubans pray, that the day will not be distant when they will be free to go back to the land of their birth, the land they - love. We hope that many Cu bans will remain. It would be a society that can blend the best of both worlds, the mu tually complementary cultures of two continents. If, in God’s good time, this happens, it will be a blessed day for the Church, and a blessed day for the United States,” Archbishop Hallinan said. menical council will not pro duce any new doctrines or sen sational formulas. The council, Pope John said, will seek “to extend charity to the different needs of nations and will present to them the message of Christ in a clearer way.” The Pope spoke at an aud ience granted (Sept. 2) to a group of architects, the first audience granted here since Pope John returned from his summer residence at Castel- gandolfo (Sept. 1). The Pontiff told the archi tects that “the council seeks to erect a new building on the foundations which have been laid throughout the centuries.” While speaking mostly about the council, the Pope also gave the architects some advice about church building. He urged those called on to design a church “to meditate on the Holy Scriptures and penetrate the spirit of the liturgy before drafting your plans. Finally, fortify the work of your mind and your hand with the spirit of intimate prayer.” He pointed out that archi tects work to provide pleasant places for man to live in which AUGUSTA German Bishop's Call For End To Nation’s Division FULDA, Germany, (Radio, NC) - Germany’s Bishops have deplored their nation's division by Red-erected walls and bar bed-wire fences. They have also appealed to responsible statesmen through out the world to do all they can to keep the “Berlin Wall from continuing to be a place of fratricide.” The Bishops spoke in a state ment issued here following their annual meeting by their chair man, Joseph Cardinal Frings, Archbishop of Cologne. The statement expressed the ‘ Bishops’ “deep grief” that the Bishops from communist-ruled East Germany were not allowed to attend the Fulda conference. The Bishops said that the recent death of Peter Fechter— East German youth shot (Aug. 17) while trying to escape to the West across the Berlin Wall and permitted to bleed to death by East Berlin com munist police—has shown the whole world the inhumanity of their country’s unnatural divi sion. The prelates expressed the hope that German reunification will be achieved in peace and freedom, and announced they will spend $1.6 million to aid East German dioceses. They also sent a message of thanks to President John F. Kennedy for the aid extended by the U. S. to Germany after World War II. The Bishops’ meeting deci ded to set up a research center to study the history of the Church in Germany during the nazi period, and named a commission to prepare a com mon prayerbook and hymnal- for all German dioceses. Cardinal Frings acknow ledged that Catholic scholars preparing a new German trans lation of the Bible are con sulting with Protestant Scrip- i ture scholars. He said that the “desired goal” is to work out translations of the most important texts - the Lord’s Prayers, for instance - that can be used by both Catholics and Protestants.

He went on: “Well, this is precisely what the Church strives to do with its own means and within its own orbit.” Noting that architects can learn from “the heritage left to us by past centuries,” the x Pontiff said that the Church through the council “intends to renew itself by basing itself on its past.
