JESUIT STRESSES
Prepare Children
To Live In World
ST. PAUL, Minn. (NC) —
Father John L. Thomas, S. J.,
said here that today's young
Catholics need to be taught to
live in a society of different
values rather than encouraged
to withdraw.
The Jesuit sociologist, au
thor of family living books
and columns and a faculty mem
ber of St. Louis (Mo.) Uni
versity, urged parents at a
meeting' in Nativity school aud
itorium to help their children
develop a personal philoso
phy that will guide them through
society’s sharply conflicting
views of what is proper.
HE suggested that parents
themselves may be responsible
for the social pattern which
leads teenagers info steady dat
ing and too-early marriage.
"I think,” he said, "our whole
society is failing pitifully—the
church, the schools, the fami
lies. We are not preparing our
youth to live in a pluralistic
society.
"By that I mean we have to
be aware that if our young
people are going to be exposed
to a whole series of alternate
types of values :hnd actions—
whether in dating or in marriage
or in business—then, you see,
it is very important that they
acquire a personal philosophy
Of life when they are growing
up.”
HE SAID children should be
prompted to ask themselves:
"What am I here for? What
is. the meaning of life? What is
its purpose? And, in terms of
that, what consequences do'
these beliefs have in terms
of my daily decisions?”
Father Thomas said parents
should not box their children
off from society,
"I know parents who leap up
and close off the television set
every time a certain kind of
thing--aomes on or a woman in-a
dress they don’t like. They think
they have done a marvelous
thing,” he said.
"WOULDN’T it be better,”
he asked, "to sit there and ask

the child what he thought?
‘What are the principles invol
ved here? Why would this be
Contrary to Catholic doctine or
wouldn’t it?’ You see?”
If this were done, he said,
"then you would be preparing
him to—what? Just to walk down
the street or even to lolok at the
daily paper.”
Of steady dating, he said the
same approach should be ap
plied. Objectionable practices
such as steady dating cannot
be stopped by mere prohibit
ion, he said; rather it is nec
essary to ask why these prac
tices arose.
"Stop and ask yourself what
else can young people do, the
way you have set up their so
cial lives?
"There is very little that
young people can do except as
a couple. Even your parish af
fairs, very often, are set up
in this way—your parties,
your schools—every place they
go,” he said.
A constructive question to
ask, he continued, is this;,
"What other social forms of
recreation, what other ways do
girls and boys have to meet
without being forced to date?”

TO CATHOLIC AGENCIES
Youth Problems
Pose Challenge
WASHINGTON (NC) — Late
statistics paint a picture of the
youth problem that is dark from
two points of view.
These are fewer and fewer
jobs and there are more and
more teenagers who will not
even look for work. Not only
must more jobs be created but
teenagers must be motivated to
avail themselves of assistance
offered,
“MORE and more teenagers
are looking for jobs that are
harder and harder to get,” says
one government agency.
"Youth unemployment—now
sticking at a rate triple that for
the labor force as a whole—will
not go away by itself,” says ano
ther agency.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics says "the unemploy
ment rate among young people,
both white and nonwhite, has
increased greatly in the past 10
years, but the increase among
nonwhites has been particular
ly sharp; so the unemployment
rate for nonwhites is now about
double that for whites.”
JACK HOWARD, director of
the Neighborhood Youth Corps,
says that “at last count, there
were 750,000 boys and girls 16
to 21 years old who were look
ing for work. In addition, some
250,000 young men in the same
age group were not in school,
not at work, and not looking for
work at the time the survey was
taken in October, 1963. Thus,
there are roughly one million
youths who need a place if we
want to maintain a healthy so
ciety."
These hard facts that have
emerge'd fromthe publicity con
nected with the anti-poverty
program of the Federal govern
ment pose a direct challenge to
diocesan and parish youth .or
ganizations. The Catholic Youth
Organization and the National
Council of Catholic Youth have
long histories of serving youth
that reveal not only the ability
to reach youth but the spirit to
motivate youth.,.

IT HAS formerly been the
custom to present a small cha
lice to the deceased Knight’s
family with the Knight’s name
inscribed. More recently this
custom has changed. The Ger
ald O’Hara General’ Assembly,
Fourth Degree, Knights of Col

to Archbishop Paul J. Hal-
linan, who in turn presents it to
the recipient, In the name of

In past years Fr. Daniel O’

and the Marist College Chapel
were recipients.
Cancer Toll
The Georgia Division of the
American Cancer Society, in a
review of cancer statistics in
the state indicates that there
are 27,000 Georgians alive
today who have been cured of
the disease. Last year 4,923
victims died here, four times
as many as died in traffic ac
cidents, and the Society points
out that 1,100 of them could
have been saved if examina
tion and early treatment had
been obtained.

agency to serve young people,
and began by giving them a
wholesome atmosphere for rec
reation. Thousands of present
day adults are living testimony
to the agency’s success. In re
cent years, however, some of
the emphasis that was original
ly placed on sports has been
transferred to spiritual and oth
er concerns. Spiritual retreats
and days of recollection in
creased, as other organiza
tions, including Little Leagues,
took up the recreational slack.
And now, a whole new set of
circumstances should prompt
youth organizations to take a
new look at their programs.
The critical, human need of
youth today is jobs. Youth or
ganizations can help greatly to
create jobs, but they can do
much more—more perhaps than
other agencies — to motivate
young people to seek and ac
cept jobs.
DIOCESAN and parish youth
organizations are specially
qualified to meet the challenge.
Their history of serving youth
gives them an “in” with teen
age boys and girls. They have
the organization, the staff and
the program experience for de
veloping projects foryoungpeo-
ple. They are convinced of the
need for motivating youth, and
they have the experience in
reaching hardened and despair
ing youth.
Finally, they are located
where youth are, in their own
neighborhoods. What type of
organization is better equipped,
and already at hand, for meet
ing the critical needs of youth
today—jobs and motivation!?
The Economic Opportunity
Act has given a new focus to
the fight on poverty; jobs, edu
cation and training. By admis
sion, all of the programs so
far suggestedby government are
only opening guns in the war
that must be waged. Could not
jobs, education and training be
come major objectives of dio- •
cesan and parish youth orgarti— a
zations? What other organiza
tion is as well equipped?
