) GEORGIA BULLETIN THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1963 PAGE 7 JEWISH GROUP School Textbooks Twist Some Religious History WASHINGTON (NC)— A Jew ish spokesman said here that most public grade school social studies textbooks fail to take an objective view of religious his tory and have “definite sectar ian tendencies.” The charge is based on a study of 120 leading textbooks, according to Samuel Dalsimer of New York, chairman of the program committee of the Anti- Defamation League of B’naiB’- rith. THE TEXTS, he said, favor Protestantism over Catholici sm and Christianity over Jud aism. They also ignore the pluralistic nature of American life, he added. Dalsimer reported these to be conclusions from a three-year study sponsored by the League. Random House Gets TM Award CHICAGO, (NC) — The 1962 Thomas More Association Medal has been awarded to Random House, Inc., New York publisher, for publishing Robert Bolt’s play, “A Man for All Seasons” in book form.

In support of the study’s con clusion that an anti-Catholic bias exists in the texts, Dalsi- mer’s announcement said: "IN THEIR treatment of the Reformation, many anti-Pro- testant measures of persecution are detailed but similiar steps taken by Protestants are not discussed. "The Reformation is pre sented as a battle in which the forces of good freed themselves from the forces of evil, rather than as a product of the peculiar social and political conditions of the time.’* Dalsimer also said that the textbooks neglect Jewish hist ory and Judaism after the Bible period. In addition, he reported, the relationship of Jesus to the Jews is "often portrayed in a manner too superficial to dis pel misconceptions underlying anti-Semitism. THE STUDY found he said, that only 5 of the 11 texts that discussed Hitler and Nazism- mentioned the subject of the persecution of Jews. Of the five, one offered no indication at all as to whether Hitler’s policy was moral or not, he said. Persecution of groups other than Jews was also mistreated, Dalsimer said. "The textbook coverage of the Inquisition and the Reformation generally pic tured Catholics as the agents of reaction and Protestants are exclusive advocates of enlight enment,’* his announcement said.

Phone Popular 1-4552 IN ROME Northwest Council NCCW Established-Officer Names BROTHERHOOD WEEK PROCLAMATION ...Governor Sanders and Don McEvoy BY GOVERNOR Members of the Northwest Deanery' of the Archdiocesan Council of Catholic Women met at St. Mary's Rectory in Rome, Georgia on Saturday to establish the council on a deanery level in accordance with the adminis trative divisions of the Arch diocese of Atlanta. Reverend Michael Manning, Archdiocesan moderator and Mrs. George Gunning, archdio cesan president were present at the meeting. Reverend Fath er John J. McDonough, Dean of the Northwest part of the At lanta archdiocese will be the spiritual moderator of the northwest deanery. The following officers were State Brotherhood Week Proclamation Is Signed Governor Carl Sanders’ first official act as Chief Executive was to sign a Proclamation de signating February 17-24th as Brotherhood Week in the state of Georgia. In his proclamation, the Gov ernor called upon Georgians to use the occasion of Brother hood Week for "renewed dedi cation to the ideals of greater tolerance, understanding, friendship, and cooperation among all our citizens, and greater respect for the diff erences and beliefs of our people. "A FULL awareness of the responsibility to increase the IRISH PRIMATE spirit of Brotherhood is, ’’ he said, "essential to the progress of our state and nation.” Sanders is serving as Hono rary Chairman of Brotherhood Week which is sponsored annu ally by the National Conference of Christians and Jews. The National Conference is a civic organization which provides ways for Protestants, Cathol ics, and Jews to work together on matters of public concern without compromise of their basic convictions. It carries on a year-round educational program through schools, churches, colleges, la bor organizations, civic clubs, and other organizations with the purpose of improving re lationships and understanding between people of all religious, cultural, and ethnic groups. Georgia Regional director of NCCJ, Don McEvoy, said of Governor Sanders’ proclamat ion: "This is a perfect example of putting first things first. We are indeed fortunate that the leadership of our ftate is in the hands of a man who understands how closely tied together are progress, prosperity, and im proved intergroup relations. I hope the citizens of Georgia will heed Governor Sanders’ call and make Brotherhood Week a genuine showcase for democracy." Cardinal D’Alton Dies DUBLIN -NC- John Cardinal D’Alton, who died here at age 80, was known for his scholarship, opposition to tyrannical forms of government and his efforts for national unity. The Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland died (Feb. 1) in St. Vincent’s Nurs ing Home after an illness of just three days after he had att ended a Requiem Mass in Lon don for William Cardinal God frey, Archbishop of Westmin ister, who died on January 22. THE DEATH of the two pre lates reduces the number of cardinals to 83. Known as a classical scholar, John D’Alton resembled the novelized concept of the scholar: shy, retiring and bene volent looking. When it was announced in December, 1952, that he would be named to the cardinalate, the Irish Times, a Dublin dally under Protestant control, com mented: "Even with the added dignity of the Red Hat, John Francis D’Alton will remain at heart a simple scholar.” THE TIMES also said; "He has that complete unconsciou sness of dignity possessed only by a man whose natural dignity is unassailable." Archbishop D’Alton was pro claimed a cardinal by Pope Pius XII at the consistory of January 12, 1953. In 1957 a plan drawn up by the Cardinal for a united Ire land was placed before the Prime Ministers of the British Commonwealth of Nations meeting in London. IT PROPOSED that the nor thern part of Ireland, instead of remaining a part of the United Kingdom, be included into a federation of northern and sout hern states comprising the en tire island. The Cardinal prop osed that the federation be associated within the British Commonwealth as a republic on the same basis as India was at the time. The plan received widespread support but did not reach high er echelons. One Catholic edi tor commented that no Irish politican was willing to push it and risk being snubbed by the United Kingdom. Official 'UT DtLlGATlS INVlClM . •~p My dear People: It is sound advice, right from the Bible, that before we build, we look at our needs and resources. The Church in northern Georgia has been looking at its needs, and doing a great deal about them, for more than a century.lt is time for a steady look at our resources - and neither buildings nor money are as important as our first resources - our Catholic people. We need to know more than we do about our Catholic growth - how many Catholics are there, where are they, how fast is the growth? Two examples - how many six-year olds we have in 1963, how many we will have in 1973.Howmany Catholics are over 65? To locate our new parishes, build our churches, staff our schools, plan our welfare program, the Archdiocese must have every available fact and figure. THE FIRST Archdiocesan Census will be taken up March 3rd, - a month from today, the first Sunday of Lent. It is the respon sibility of our Archdiocesan Council of Catholic Men, but since we will need 5,000 census-takers, we are asking both men and women to volunteer to their pastors for this task. The actual census should take only four hours, 2:00 P. M. to 6:00 P. M., March 3rd. Teams of two will go, door-to-door, over all city areas. The most modern means of processing, the IBM card system will be used to give the totals. Publicity of every kind- newspaper, radio and television- will be used so that everyone in northern Georgia will know that the Catholics are taking a Census. We ask your help. Parish chairmen and captains have been named; the volunteer census-takers are now being assigned. Please give your name to your pastor for this great work. The Census is an apostolic venture in which you go out as a repre sentative of your Church, a true ambassador of Christ. Our children and all those who are sick or disabled are asked to pray that it will be a success, - areal success, an apostolic success. THROUGH the Georgia Bulletin, our archdiocesan weekly newspaper, the pulpit and the schools, you will be kept aware of the plans. What we need now is an army of census-takers willing to give a few hours to their Church. I am confident that every able-bodied Catholic adult will have an active part in this Census - our most important project for 1963. May God bless the 34,000 Catholics we know about, and the many more that we don’t - and help us to locate them 1 With every good wish, Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Reverend Paul J.
