Lay Retreatants Adopt Resolutions WASHINGTON, Ga. — The fol lowing Resolutions were submit ted and adopted at the annual meeting of the Retreat Section of the Catholic Laymen’s Association of Georgia, held at the conclu sion of ’the twenty-second annual Retreat at St. Joseph’s Home here: Nazi-Belgian Paper Sees Catholics as Nazisms Chief Foe WHITEVILLE PARISH SPONSORS RELIGIOUS VACATION SCHOOL NEW YORK—That Nazis con sider the Communists of less dan ger to their “New Order” in Eu rope than the Catholics is demon strated by an editorial in Vooruit, former Socialist and now Nazi-con trolled daily of Ghent, Belgium, a copy of which has reached here. “No I do not think the Com munists are the big danger,” says ‘"the article. It expresses belief that “the strongest opposition against the loyal struggle for So cialism comes from the clergy,” and “various organizations which they establish everywhere.” “I do not exaggerate” the writer states, “when I say that these priests are the soul of the opposition against collaboration with Germany for the realization of the European New Order. Have you not seen the interest displayed by the priests in the Boy Scout organization? Whenever possible they establish a new Scout group. These Scouts are the bearers of anti-Socialist, anti-German and pro-British pro paganda. I know their leaders in this district and I can say that they are all pro-British and pub lish poisonous clandestine pamph lets.” After violently denouncing other Catholic organizations, like the Catholic Youth Association and Catholic Labor groups, the author of the article complains that in “western Flemish villages the priests have established an organi zation called the Crusaders.” “Ev eryone knows against whom the crusade is aimed,” the article adds. “The activities of these camouflag ed opposition organizations suffice to prove that the agitators are clerics.” Mrs. J.

Phone WA. 9139 or WA. 0396 ATLANTA JUNIOR AND SENIOR HIGH Term Begins September 9 Mr. Chairman and Fellow Re treatants: Your Resolutions Committee has the honor to submit the fol lowing report: 1. On this 22nd annual retreat under the auspices of the Catholic Laymen’s Association of Georgia we first offer to Almighty God our thanks for the opportunity He has again given us to enjoy His intimate companionship for these few days. We extend a cordial welcome to those who this year had their first meeting with us, and hope that their experience met all an ticipations and resulted in a de termination by them to meet with us again next year and each bring, if possible, a new member. 2. We renew the mutual prom ise made on the occasion of our own first retreat, to always include in our night prayers three Jlail Marys for the intention of a nap py death for our fellow retreat ants and our Reverend Retreat- masters, and we venture to hope that our Union of Prayer may be indefinitely self-perpetuated. 3. We greet with enthusiastic acclaim the new League of Mary Immaculate, formed under the auspices of. the Catholic Laymen’s Association of Georgia to pray for our Lady’s intercession for Vic tory and a just Peace to soon term inate the war we entered on her feast day. We promise to spread the devotion in our own parishes to the end that she will hear our many voices and grant our suppli cations, remembering that never was it known that anyone who sought for help and implored her intercession was left unaided. 4. We believe that among the faithful of our diocese may be formed, under the auspices of the Catholic Laymen’s Association of Georgia, still other groups for Catholic Action that will have special appeal to many men of many minds and which will afford the means of expressing then- aspirations. We recommend that this thought beg iven earnest consider ation before the annual session of the Catholic Laymen's Association of Georgia in October at Macon, so that steps may be taken then to create, if need be, the proper ad ministrative structure to meet the desire for increased activity and added importance of the an nual sessions. 5. We express our earnest thanks to our esteemed Retreat- master, the Rev. Joseph P. Turner, C.SS.R., who again has made a long journey to guide us in our recollections and meditations and to lead us closer to God during these few days. We have all taken to heart his exhortations on the value and importance of charac ter building, and wil not soon for get the fundamental need of prin ciple in character development. We hope and pray that his 61 years may be increased well be yond the four-score-odd years of his most estimable parents, and that he may continue to reap rich and abundant harvests of souls for the Greater Honor and Glory of God. 6. We offer our special thanks to the Rev. John F. Crean, the an gelic Sisters of St. Joseph, and their boys, for their kind hospital ity and entertainment during our 22nd annual retreat. This is the 12th year we have been their guests, and in one of these inter vening years, in 1936, two sepa rate groups in different months were provided for here by them. We are fully aware that they must view our arrival with dread, having to surrender to us their own quarters for our ac commodation, putting up, them selves, with few conveniences and fewer comforts while we are here. We beg them to be assured of our heartfelt gratitude, and that certainly we attribute a great share of the graces we receive from the retreat to their arrange ments for our benefit, for all of MACON, Ga.—Funeral services for Mrs. Rosa Sanchez Holloway, wife of J. M. Holloway, retired railway engineer, were held from St. Joseph’s Church, the Rev. Wil liam Reagan, S. J., officiating. Mrs. Holloway died on June 25, follow ing a short illness. The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Emanuel .Sanchez, Mrs. Holloway was born in Elkton, Fla. She came to Macon soon after her mariage fifty-two years ago and has lived here since. She is survived by her husband two sons, E. P. Holloway, Savannah, and E. H. Holloway, Macon; three sisters, Miss Maude Sanchez, Mrs. Jessie Masters and Mrs. Lizzie Masters, and a brother, Russell Sanchez, all of St. Augus tine. which we most certainly will re member them in our prayers. 7. We recommend that these sentiments be communicated to our fellow retreatants at the Sa vannah session for their consid eration and concurrence, and that they beg iven such publicity as may be afforded by the official or gan of the Catholic Laymen’s As sociation of Georgia. All of which, this 19th day of July, 1942, is respectfully sub mitted. B. J. KANE, Atlanta, MILES J. O’CONNOR, Augusta, JOHN J. McCREARY, Macon, Chairman, Resolutions Committee. mrs.
