FORCES AIDING Bishop Optimist On Family Life BOMBAY, India (RNS)—There are more reasons for confident optimism than for moral de featism among families, despite forces loose in the world which are "anti-life, anti-love, anti- child," Bishop John J. Wright of Pittsburgh, Pa., declared here at a study session of the 38th International Eucharistic Congress. The bishop cited "expanding programs of social security, maternity aid, child guidance, parent and child education, housing action, social justice and family welfare" under both public and private initiative. regimes of impersonal legalistic orientation, indifferent to those purposes of family life which make the family a community of love...regimes with concepts of economic laissez-faire, po litical individualism, techno cratic scientism, moral neu tralism, or that pseudo-reli gious, mystical flight from rea lities and responsibilities which leaves the family defenseless in the face of brutal injustices and cole inequities." THE American prelate de clared that there are increased supernatural forces, as well as material forces, on the side of the family. ST. JOSEPH High freshman during Talent Show, FOR VESTMENTS SPECIALIST DECLARES the move to bring foreign work ers into the country under the Immigration and Nationality Act as an attempt to circumvent the expiration, scheduled for Dec. 31, of the bract ro program un der which Mexican nationals for years have been imported to do farm work. He said there "seems to be an already existent understand ing or agreement, made perhaps at the highest levels, that Mexi can and other aliens will in fact be admitted in 1965 to fo seasonal agricultural labor." However, the priest said he refuses to accept the "assump tion"— which he said was im plied in the Labor Department hearings—that foreign workers would be imported. And he add ed: "I insist that any ‘shor tage’ of workers which is said to exist is an artificial one created by the stubborn refusal of the growers to improve wages and working conditions to the point that American workers can and will accept them." "LET NO one assume that by talking about standards we have given up the battle on the admission of aliens. That battle will go on," he said. Father Vizzard's testimony represented another round in a continuing battle over the bra- cero program. Under Public Law 78, the Mexican nationals have been imported annually by the tens of thousands. The program has been under steady attack by labor and re ligious groups, which .claim that it puts American workers at a disadvantage by forcing them to compete for jobs with Mexicans who can afford to work for less, Lest year Congress turned down an effort to ex tend the program beyond the end of this year. ASSAILING the new move to bring in the foreign workers, Father Vizzard leveled his heaviest fire at the growers, who he said stand to benefit by having access to cheap labor. While most growers are not "consciously evil men," he said, "too many...seem to be lieve that they have a right to use-or abuse-human beings without any condierationfor de cency, justice and human dig nity." "Since these growers show "NOT all defective social ef forts, even of states or organi zations with unfortunate politi cal theories will prove finally against the family, its life and its love," he said. "Indeed, as so often in the past, so the fu ture may find that good effects have survived when faulty theo ries and sinful policies have inevitably gone their way into oblivion." Bishop Wright spoke at a ses sion devoted to family life in a changing society. He deplored forces "working against the family," seeing these as "regimes of easy di vorce, lightly permitted or cyn ically facilitated ... regimes of contraceptive orientation. . . "An aroused Church, ever more conscious of itself as the family of God and the source of God's grace for families singly and for all the family of mankind, is proving to be rich in resources to aid the develop ment of family idealism, the so lution of family tensions, the promotion of family life," he said. Bishop Wright explained that "the doctrinal treasures of the faith are being searched to dis cover new stores for the en richment of the Church's moral and ascetical contribution of the hallowing of family life." HE also cited the fostering of Christian Family Movements and a "harvest" of publications on family liturgical life, nupti al spirituality, ' the, special sanctity and sublime dignity of marriage," and the family. "All these," he said, "reveal the Church at work on the side of family life." Offer Talent Show At St. Joseph High Freshmen at Saint Joseph High School have produced a Talent Show. Two big turkeys were also raffled off. The win ners of the turkeys were soph- mores Phillis Harrison and Ju dith Monahan Anderson. Proceeds from the raffle will go towards buying vestments for the school Masses. JOAN Ayers was the hit of the show when she sang "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" and accompanied herself on the guitar. Kathern Blom, Barbara Van House, Joan Ayers, Theresa Keane, Kathleen Bergin and Cat herine Kneurr composed the "Wanderers," a folk singing team. Mary Ann Fox, Maureen More, Vincent Aseff, John Schi lling and Wayne Karolyi pre sented a skit entitled "At the Examiners." STUDENTS hear the rymthm of drums and of a guitar as Charles Prather and David Pil— zelt played. Eugenia Azurmendi danced to "Gigi." Claude Shirely and Jo hanna Low played piano. Vice-President of the Class, Barbara Sutherland, said the purpose of the show was not only to get money, but also "to let the upper classmen meet us." ‘Kiss Me’ Found Stupid NEW YORK (NC) The National Legion of Decency announced (Dec. 7) that a Condemned rating has been issued to the film, "Kiss Me Stupid." starr ing Kim Novak and Dean Mirtin. The reason for the C rating of the film, which was produced and directed by Billy Wilder, was stated by the Legion: "SATIRE on the foibles of its people has always been a sign of the healthiness of a society. Through humor the weaknesses of men can be exposed to a sla- utary recognition by all, and,' many times, much more effec tively than by serious preach ment. Mr. Wilder’s earlier film, "The Apartment," was an example of such effective comic staire. "In the case of "Kiss Me Stupid," however, not only has Mr. Wilder failed to create a genuine satire out of a situa tion comedy about an amateur composer who attempts to sell his songs to a big -name singer in exchange for the adulterous attentions of his alleged ‘wife’, but he has regrettably produced a thoroughly sordid piece of realism which isesthetically as well as morally repulsive. Crude and suggestive dialogue, a lcaring treatment of mar ital and extra-marital sex, a prurient preoccupation with lechery compound the film’s bald condonation of immoral ity." IN releasing this rating the Legion at the same time ex pressed its astonishment that "a film which is so patently indecent and immoral" should have received a seal of appro val from the Production Code Authority- of the Motion Picture Association of America.

Viz zard, S.J., director of the Wash ington office of the National Catholic Rural Life Conference in testimony at a Labor De partment hearing on criteria for admitting aliens for temporary work in the U.S. under the Immigration and Nationality Act. FATHER Vizzard assailed WASHINGTON— A Catholic rural life spokesman charged here that many U.S. farm grow ers have an attitude on labor that is "very little different from the economic and social and moral outliik of the slave owning plantation proprietors of the pre-Civil War South."

"They need to be made to understand in what century and in what kind of economy and society they are living and ope rating. They must be forced to realize that to exploit the poverty of other nations in order to beat down and crush the poor of our own country is the gros sest kind of imorality." COMMENTING on the asser tion that growers cannot af ford to pay their workers high er wages, he said: "If they want us to believe that, they’ll have to hide their bank accounts and profit statemtnts, their lux urious homes and their ’jet ANSWER TO LAST WEEK’S PUZZLE set’ standards of living." The priest offered a number of recommendations aimed at ensuring that American work ers get the first crack at farm jobs on fair terms, including adequate wages and living and working conditions. "United States workers must have an absolute priority for all Ameri can farm jobs," he said.
