NEW $150,000 CHURCH FOR
SAIT JOSEPH’S. MARIETTA
MARIETTA—The new $150,000
church now under construction
for St. Joseph’s parish reflects
the steady growth of the parish
which it will serve.
The parish of St. Joseph was
canonically erected and estab
lished by a Decree of the Holy
See, under the date of June 25,
1952. Rev. Andrew A. Walls,
S.M. was appointed its Founder
and first pastor. He, however
had been in residence in Mariet
ta ministering to the Catholic
population since October, 1951.
Rev. Joseph G. Callaghan, S.M.
and Rev. Charles E. Duke, S.M.,
were the first assistants of the
new Parish Father Phil A. Has
son, S.M. replaced Father Cal
laghan in August, 1953. The Par
ish boundarys embrace five en
tire counties in the state of Geor
gia: Cobb, Carroll, Douglas, Har
alson and Paulding, with an area
of 1,645 miles.
Prior to this time, however,
Marietta had been a Mission at
tached to the Sacred Heart
Church of Atlanta and attended
by the Marist Fathers since 1897.
The present church building
was constructed in 1929. Seating
only about 100 persons the build
ing has long ceased to be able
to accommodate the parish.
Following the establishment of
the parish in 1952, a 6 acre tract
of land was secured for the es
tablishment of the new Parish
Plant. The Surh property atop
Sugar Hill with the beautiful
Colonial Mansion at Campbell
and Lacy Streets was purchased.
The first unit of the Parochial
School building was dedicated in
1953.

"History Of Church"
Published In Moscow
BERLIN, July 8,—A new his
tory of the Catholic Church, writ
ten by a Soviet historian, brands
its leaders as “big capitalists,
shareholders, and bankers.”
According to Radio Moscow,
the book entitled “The Vatican:
Religion, Finances, and Politics”
has just been published in Mos
cow. -It was written by Josif
Lavretsky.
In tracing the history of the
Church from the 16th century to
the present, according to the
broadcast, Mr. Lavretsky uses
“extensive factual material” to'
document his charges that the
Vatican is one of the biggest fi
nancial forces in the capitalist
world.
“He shows how the Catholic
Church has become the political
leader of the bourgeoisie,” the
broadcast said, “while the Vati
can, continuing to remain a re
ligious center and to advocate
medieval mysticism, developed
into one of the. biggest financial
forces in the capitalist world.”
A special chapter in the book
is devoted to Catholicism in the
United States, which says the
Church is an “important factor
in the policy of U. S. ruling class
es.”
