sent: Sister Mary, S.S.J. (Prin
cipal), and Sisters Stephen, S.
S.J., Gemma, S.S.J., Mary
Peter, S.S.J. , and Margaret
Mary, S.S.J.
Main speaker at the demon
stration was Dr. Martin Luther
King, Jr., who declared that
"something strange and sad
had happened to Atlanta”. He
added that i f some concrete
results were not achieved in
the granting of further civil
rights to Negroes in the capi
tal city, then demonstrations
may be the only answer for the
Negro leadership.
Dr. King said the rally was
not an effort to embarrass the
city, rather it was to call At
lanta to return to justice and
' *to rise from dark yesterdays
of racial injustice to bright to-
ATLANTA REALTOR
morrows of justice for all.”
He said that "while boasting
of its progress and virtue, At
lanta has allowed itself to fall
behind almost every major
sourthern city in progress to
ward desegregation.” Dr. King
added: "It is as if the very
progress we have made has be
come a tranquil! zing drug to
lull us to sleep and dull our
sensitivity to the continued ex
istence of segregation. Indeed
our city is in danger of being
inoculated with such a mild form
of democracy that it will become
immune to its genuine sub
stance.”
Three other Negro leaders
spoke on the same theme of
inadequate action to eradicate
discrimination in public accom
modations, housing, and other
disabilities suffered by the
Negro.

Bishop Dead
LETTERKENNY, I r e1 a nd
(NC)--Bishop William MacNee-
ly of Raphoe, who was the youn
gest member of the Irish epis
copate when he was consecrat
ed 40 years ago, died Dec. 11
at the age of 75. Because of
illness he returned home early
from the second session of the
ecumenical council.
Bishop Predicts Speedy
U.S. Vernacular Action
OKLAHOMA CITY (RNS) —
The U.S. Catholic hierarchy’s
Commission on the Liturgical
Apostolate is working with
“utmost speed” to bring En-
lish to the Mass in this coun
try, according to Bishop Vic
tor J. Reed of Oklahoma City
and Tulsa.
Bishop Reed, a member of
the commission, said a meet
ing has been set by thegroup
for early January to select
the most appropriate English
translation for the Mass and
other forms of Catholic wor
ship.
LATER ON IN the spring,
the country’s bishops will meet
in Washington, D.C., to approve
the translations. The prelates
will be acting with new powers
authorized at the last session
of the Second Vatican Council
and promulgated by Pope Paul
VI at the Council’s adjournment
Dec. 4.
"We expect the American
bishops, who have welcomed the
Council decree on the verna
cular, will take maximum ad
vantage of this decree and that
we will soon have almost the
entire Mass In English,” Bls-
shop Reed commented in an in
terview upon his return from the
Council.
”1 AM QUITE hopeful,” he
added, "that the bishops who
have been against the verna
cular will be In a small mino
rity, and I feel that this minority
gets smaller all the time.”
The Oklahoma prelate is one
of five bishops on the hier
archy's commission. The oth
ers are Archbishop John F.
Dearden of Detroit, Archbishop
Paul J. Hallinan of Atlanta,
Bishop Vincent S. Waters of
Raleigh, N.C., and Auxiliary
Bishop James H, Griffiths of
New York.
BISHOP REED said the ver
nacular Mass will be only an
intermediate step until the en
tire structure of the Mass'is
revised by a postconciliar com
mission.
This group of theologians and
liturgists is expected to take
about five years to work out
major structural changes in
the Mass so as to make it
more meaningful and better ad
apted to the needs of modern
times, he added.
INITIALLY, Bishop Reed not
ed, the vernacular Mass will
only be used in the Low Mass.
High Mass, he said, will re
main in Latin because of com
plex problems involving sacred
music.
"I was happy with the out
come of the Council,” said the
prelate. “I feel the proclam
ation of the liturgical schema
is a great step forward, es
pecially since it was passed
almost unanimously, 1 think that
this is a victory for progres
sive thought in the Church.”
ON OTHER matters reviewed
at the Council’s last session,
Bishop Reed said he was con
fident that the draft on religious
liberty would be taken up again
next fall and passed. 'The
American bishops were strong
ly in favor of this schema,”
he declared.
Discussing the schema to
promote better Catholic-Jewish
relations, he expressed regret
that it was not passed. He said
it would be extremely important
for the Council to take a firm
stand on anti-Semitism and
place the Crucifixion in better
historical and theological pers
pective
(THAT DOCUMENT, as draf
ted, would place the blame for
Christ’s death on sinful maji-
CASES GROW
kind, as a whole, and not the
Jews alone.)
Unlike the first session of the
Council, Bishop Reed said,
American prelates took a lead
in conciliar discussions this
fall. "In Rome they caught on
quickly and I am sure that by
the time the Council is over
the American hierarchy will
have played a key role in Its
proceedings.”
Pope Is Concerned
By Marriage Suits
VATICAN CITY (NC)—Pope
Paul VI, addressing judges of
the Universal Church’s court of
appeal, wondered aloud if the in
crease in the number of mar
riage cases brought before the
court is not traceable to a de
cline in moral responsibility.
Public entertainment, books
and other publications have
spread "dangerous ideas and
mistaken attitudes,” said the
Pope.
HE ADDED: “And it is also
a fact that these stimuli meet
with less resistance within the
very sanctuary of the family
than they did in the past.”
The Pope was speaking to
the judges of the Sacred Ro
man Rota, assembled for their
customary papal audience at the
beginning of the new judicial
year. Dean, or head, of the
court is a priest from Shen
andoah, Pa., Msgr. Francis J.
Brennan.
IN HIS ADDRESS to the court,
the Pope spoke of the “abso
lute necessity of a recall to
SACRED HEART
the preeminence of moral val
ues.”
He also praised pastoral un
dertakings which "give engaged
couples and young married cou
ples that moral and spiritual
preparation which will illumi
nate and strengthen their con
science for the holiness of love
and the firmness and real hap
piness of family life.”
POPE PAUL SAID that con
science— "that light of the
soul”—must rule ecclesiasti
cal judges and lawyers as well
as the parties involved in a
suit.
He said also:
“THOSE CONTRACTING
marriage should not approach it
superficially as a caprice of the
senses, or an adventure, or an
uncertain experiment, but
should be conscious of the step
they are taking and should see
it as the great sacrament which
consecrates them to the sub
lime mission of collaborating
with God in giving life to new
creatures and caring for their
development with prudence and
an awareness of their responsi
bility.”
Fr. Chauve, Priest
And Soldier, Is 85
Priest, teacher and one-time
private in the French army.
Father Constantin Augustin
Chauve, S.M. passed his 85th
birthday Tuesday at Sacred
Heart, Atlanta, where he has
been assigned since last March.
He has been a Marist 63 years.
Fr. Chauve was ordained a
priest June 24, 1902 at Ca
tholic University, Washington,
D. C. He was ordained by
Bishop Conauty, then Rector
of the University and later the
first bishop of Los Angeles,
after his ordination, Fr. Chauve
was assigned to All Hallows
College, Salt Lake, then to
Van Buren, Maine,
IN 1914, HE returned to his
native land, France and joined
the French army as a private
in the medical corps. He
served In the trenches for three
years (the French army did not
recognize chaplians as such),
then, when the U. S. entered
the war, became an interpret
er with the A. E. F.
FAMILY AFFAIR
FR. a A. CHAUVE, S.M.
After the war Fr. Chauve
went to Louisiana, then to San
Francisco, then back to Louis
iana. He has spent a total of
32 years in Louisiana assign
ments. Last March he came to
Sacred Heart, here in Atlanta.
STILL SPEAKING with a very
faint trace of a French accent,
Fr. Chauve says “I am happy
to be in Atlanta. Everyone has
been very kind and good to me.
I feel at home.”
Carrollton Christmas Supper
The families of the Church
o f Our Lady in Carrollton
held their annual Christmas
Holiday Supper on Sunday even
ing at Charles Carroll Hall.
All of the inducements for a
happy holiday spirit were there
a bountiful covered-dish sup
per, the singing of Christmas
Carols, the glittering tree and
the jolly Santa Claus.
Santa Claus distributed to
every boy and girl a religious
memento of the occasion from
the pastor, Reverend Richard
B. Morrow. And to Father
Morrow he presented a gift
from the Altar Society. After
expressing his thanks, Father
described some of his child
hood memories of Christmas
and made the point that it is
not the lavish presents, but
the remembrance of family
traditions and family religous
customs, which linger with a
child into adulthood.
In the games and contests
that followed, in which all ages
participated, prizes were won
by Mrs. Paul Williams, Miss
Jamie Van Sant, Miss Joanne
Frost, and Jim Coker.
Mrs. Rayburn Stallings and
her committee of young people
were in charge of the preparat
ions and entertainment, and.
earned the appreciation of all
of the members for a wonder
ful evening.

ginally been scheduled for Nov.
22, but was postponed until

Kennedy.
