Urban Renewal Official
Denies POAU Charges
WASHINGTON (NC) — A
Federal official says a group
active in disputes over alleged
Church-State issues is guilty
of unwarranted charges about
Catholic involvement in urban
renewal.
Urban Renewal Commission
er William L. Slayton said the
group is Protestants and Other
Americans United for Separa
tion of Church and State, a
Washington-based organization
self-described as defender of
total Church-State separation.
IN A letter to Glenn L. Ar
cher, executive director of PO
AU, Slayton said the organiza
tion has made charges of spe
cial treatment for Catholic
57 NURSES
churches and schools in its
monthly magazine, “Church and
State," and in a pamphlet, ‘Ur
ban Take-Over."
Expressing “concern" over
these accusations, Slayton says
they are “unwarranted on the
basis of ascertainable facts"
and may lead to misunderstand
ing of Federally assisted re
newal efforts.
Slayton said “particularly
distrubing" are POAU charges
that “through urban renewal

CYO
BY SMITTY
CYO activities in March are
switching to the cultural and
religious aspects of teen life.
Last Sunday the Immaculate
Heart of Mary teens took a
trip to the Atlanta Art Mus
eum, while the Christ the King
CYO continued their bridge les
sons. On a more social plane,
the St. Peter and Paul youths
spent the evening ice skating.
This Sunday the Assumption
Teen Club will have a pizza
supper, and then they will see
a movie. St. Thomas More’s
CYO will go bowling, while
Immaculate Conception will do
the same. Christ the King will
continue their practice for the
St. Patricks' Day play.
This brings up the topic of
the Christ the King play. En
titled “It’s a Great Day for
the Irish” the show will be
comprised of old Irish songs
and dances. This looks like
the big event for this month;
so everyone is urged to attend
on either Mar. 16 or 17.
On Mar. 24 Christ the King
CYO will go ice skating, while
««. Thomas More will view a
religious movie.
Looking towards future CYO
activities, the diocesan Vocat
ion Ralley is tentatively plan
ned for Mar. 31.

Archbishop Unity
Talk Sunday
Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan
will discuss the Ecumenical
Council before a group of young
adult Catholics of the Atlanta
Area on Sunday, March 10.
Sponsored by the Cathedral
Club of Christ the King, at
7;30 p.m. in the new Parish Hall
at the Cathedral, it will mark
the first gathering of all the
young Catholic organizations in
the area.
Invited to attend are mem
bers and guests of the follow
ing organizations: The Atlanta
Area Council of Catholic Adult
Clubs; the Knights of Colum
bus; the Newman Clubs of
Emory University, Georgia
State, and the Georgia Institute
of Technology; and the young
adult clubs of St. Michael’s,
St. Anthony’s and St. John Mel-
klte churches.
pense of other religious and
lay groups; and Roman Catho
lic churches receive preferen
tial treatment from urban re
newal officials and agencies".
“WE HAVE never discrimi
nated against any group in fa
vor of any other group, and, to
the best of our knowledge, nei
ther have local agencies pur
suing urban renewal objec
tives," Slayton said.
He notes that POAU charges
of unfairness in the participa
tion of Fordham University,
New York, and St. Louis (Mo.)
University in urban renewal
projects have been through
courts. “As you know, the ci
ties involved and the Federal
government were upheld in
every case concerning selling of
urban renewal land to these two
schools,” he said.
SLAYTON also noted that
many schools and churches have
benefited from urban renewal
activities in their cities. He
cites Baptist, Episcopal, Met
hodist and other denominations.
Slayton's letter has been dis
tributed across the country to
local public agencies engated
in urban renewal. They were
told it was made available to
answer inquiries about POAU
charges.

Reflections of a Retreat:

many other women, some you
recognize, and others, “stran

you find out, when you start to
pray. You look at the sleepy
faces and figures, and feel part
of something comfortable and
family-like — a little envy
thinking of the nuns who pray
in this way — you feel strong

with others, the waves of love
and petition pulsing and surging
against the gates of heaven. . .

as expressions of God’s good

TO THE EDITOR
It would seem logical that
the Georgia Bulletin carry, pri
marily, news of Georgia
churches, their events, addit
ions, and changes. Actually,
national and international
events are featured in other
Catholic papers and I wish they
could be given secondary place
in our Diocesan paper.
Thank you for retaining
“Georgia Pines” by Father
Kieman, whose articles always
have warmth and personality,
and the articles by Father May-
hew, who is always so infor
mative.
It would be interesting to
read comments from others
on this subject.

INDIA: HARVEST IN MARCH
Tht Holy Father's Missm Aid
fur the Ormtal Church
THE FLOODED RICE FIELDS of southern India have been
drained. The tall-standing heads with their close-packed seeds
are gathered in . . . After threshing,
the grains, still encased in their
brown hulls, are called paddy. Each
year at this time the nineteen sisters
from ST. JOSEPH’S HOME FOR THE
PIm 5 ABANDONED appear for the harvest
C- \ /||<A at ARPPOOKKARA, in the diocese
of CHANGANACHERRY . . . They
come to beg paddy for some 150
orphans, aged, handicapped and ill
under their care. Whatever they re
ceive now must last for the whole
year! . . . SISTER CARMELA tells us
sadlv that many who seek admittance
at ST. JOSEPH’S mast be turned away. She cannot meet mount
ing debts and lack of space maks3 the work doubly hard . . .
The Sisters have only one room for themselves; another small
corner for a chapel. They need a real chapel, a house for the
Sisters, as well t3 an infirmary where those coming in with
contagious diseases can be Isolated ... A gift of S3,090 will
relieve the strain on these valiant women. Will you, for ST.
JOSEPH’S FEAST this month, help a house dedicated to him?
SPRINGTIME IN GALILEE
"Because He was a man a* well as He was God.
He loved His own goat-nibbled hills. His crumbling
Jewish sod.
He bowed to Rjman rule and dared none to rebel!
But oh the windflowers out of Naim.
We know He loved them well!” —Eileen Duggan
Right now those "hills of Galilee” where He so often walked
are ablaze with color—red. blue, white. The narcissus ("Rose
of Sharon”) shines in the sunlight . . . Whole hillsides are
'covered with wild anemones <”Lily of the Field”) and with
pink flax, crowfoot, iris, broomrape and borage. And here, on
a day not long before the Crucifixion, Peter, in answer to Our
Lord's question, uttered his Immortal reply: "Thou are the
Christ!”
In appreciation for the MASS STIPENDS and other gifts
you send us, we would like to give you a small memento—a
card with flowers from the Holy Land. Or we’ll gladly send
one to the friend or relative in whose name your offering is
made, if you wish.
‘‘EGG MONEY”
“Egg money’’ traditionally goes to the farmer's wife for her
use. Recently a woman wrote us that for years her egg money
was given for the education of a seminarian ... At times she
wondered If the sacrifice were worth while. Then came word
that the young man is now ordained , . . Childless themselves,
this good couple have been given great happiness by their
adopted priest-son.
You also can help educate a seminarian or Sister in one of
our mission lands. $2 a week for six years pays for a semina
rian’s training. S3 a week for two years prepares a girl for
religious life ... Or you can Join a DOLLAR-A-MONTH CLUB:
CHRYSOSTOM CLUB for seminarians
MARY’S BANK for Sisters.
