HOW-TO-DO-IT
Pamphlet Urges
On Objectors
NEW YORK (NC) — The Ca
tholic Peace Fellowship here
has expanded its encouragement
of conscientious objection to
military service with pub
lication of ,a how-to-do-it pam
phlet.
ItlSIlOl' JAMES I*. SHAN
NON, ■ Auxiliary of St. Paul,
has been appointed Assistant
Episcopal Chairman of the
N.C.W.C. Press Department.
He is president of the Col
lege of St. Thomas, St. Paul,
publisher of the Catholic Di
gest.
Entitled “Catholics and Con
scientious Objection," the bro
chure was written by James
H. Forest, national secretary of
the fellowship, described as an
educational service conducted
by Catholic members of the in
ter-denominational Fellowship
of Reconciliation.
The booklet, which bears an
imprimatur from Auxiliary
Bishop Terence J. Cooke of New
York, reviews statements of
popes, saints, scholars and Va
tican Council II on the role of
the Christian in war.
"CAN A CATHOLIC be a
conscientious objector?” it
asks. "The constant teaching
of the Church regarding the pri
macy of conscience, the
Church’s consistant application
of this teaching in defense of
Catholic conscientious objec
tors and not least, the continu
ous presence of such objectors
throughout Church history
would indicate that the answer
is unqualifiedly yes," it says.
It charges, that U.S. law on
conscientious objection is at
odds with Catholic just war
teaching because the law fails
to permit citizens to object
to military service in a par
ticular war. Conscientious ob
jection in the United States must
be based on objection to all
war “iii any form" in order
to avoid imprisonment.
The peace fellowship, or
ganized in 1964, has offered
counseling to several young men
who recently publicly destroyed
their draft cards, although
spokesmen say the fellowship
itself does not support such acts
or other forms of public paci
fist demonstration.

FOR EDUCATORS. STUDENTS
Education Group Seeks
Awareness, Involvement
THE COMMITTEE on Ecu
menism and Catholic Education,
a division within the Roman
Catholic Bishops’. Commission
for Ecumenical Affairs, pre
sented a statement of purposes
today (April 12) in Chicago.
The statement, entitled "Edu
cating for Ecumenism”, was
presented during a general ses-
sion of the National Catholic
Educational Association’s 63rd
annual convention.
The Rev. Colman Barry, pres
ident of St. John’s University in
Collegeville, Minn., is chair
man of the committee on Ecu
menism and Catholic Education.
Bishop James P. Shannon auxil
iary bishop of St. Paul is the
episcopal representative on the
committee which includes 22
other members. Father Leonard
F. X. Mayhew, Associate Editor
of THE GEORGIA BULLETIN
and pastor of Holy Cross Par
ish, is a member of the com
mittee.
Father Barry made the pres
entation. After" his remarks,
additional comments were made
by three members of the com
mittee: Mrs. Eugene J, Mc
Carthy of Bethesda, Md„ Sis
ter Mary Ida Gannon, president
of Chicago's Mundelein College,
and Mr. Philip Scharper, edi
tor of Sheed and Ward publish
ers in New York.
ONE OF THE primary goals
of Vatican Council II was an
ecumenical goal. It has been
recognized that all the renewal
taking place in the Roman Cath
olic Church bears upon better
relationships between the
world’s different denomina
tions. With this in mind, the
Committee of Ecumenism and
Catholic Education has pur
sued its work. After fully rec
ognizing the practical and psy
chological difficulties which the
ecumenical movement can pre
sent for many people, the state
ment goes on to say:, “Com
paratively few Catholics...are
now prepared to express the
ecumenical dimensions in their
daily lives. They must learn
to do so; they must be educated
for ecumenism."
Seven broad guidelines are
proposed to promote ecumen
ical awareness and involvement
among Roman Catholic educa
tors and students. The Com
mittee plans later to bring out a
handbook of specific guidelines
which will provide detailed sug
gestions on education for ecu
menism.
The seven broad guidelines
proposed refer first to the pov
erty which we experienced be
cause of our divisions. We
need each other. Furthermore,
the world experiences a pov
erty, since we deny it our full
witness to Christ by our divi
sions. --Teaching a renewed
theology fosters ecuipenism. On
the elementary and secondary
level this means a biblical, lit
urgical and doctrinal cateche-
sis. In higher education a rea
lization is also needed that this
renewed theology has developed

through contact with other tra
ditions and their scholars and
■ must continue to develop in this
way —Ecumenism demands a
knowledge of and respect for the
beliefs and practices of other
confessions and religions. Edu
cators should prepare themsel
ves to teach these traditions
sympathetically and wherepos-
sible, teachers from these other
traditions should present the
material.
Catholics must be aware of
any religious prejudices and
negative attitudes they harbor.
Because these often begin in the
home, adult education will be
important. —There is a need
for personal encounter in a re
ligious context. Teachers must
seek out such encounters. Ecu
menical prayer gatherings or
ways suggested in the “interim
Guidelines for Prayer in Com
mon and Communicatio in Sac-
ris” of the Bishops’ Commis
sion are possibilities for such
encounter. All this should is
sue in a common witness and
service in the world. Young
adults should be so formed that
they join with people of other
traditions to help resolve the
many urgent social problems
of our day. —All these prin-'
ciples must be internalized
through meditative prayer for
unity.
NEW YORK (NC)~Tofurther
the service of the Church in the
modern world through the “ex
traordinary capacity of the
electronic wizards" will be
among the principal goals of
the new Catholic National Office
for Radio and Television which
opened headquarters at 1
Rockefeller Plaza on April 11.
The office, established by the
Bishops of the United States at
a Rome meeting in November,
1965, will carry out this ser
vice by providing authoritative
Catholic information to the na
tional radio-television indus
try, and industrial guidance to
Catholic groups working in
broadcasting..
Directing the work of the of
fice as episcopal chairman is
Auxiliary Bishop John A. Don
ovan of Detroit, who will be as
sisted by a board of directors
of some 65 laymen, prominent
in the communications field.
A LAY executive director of
the office has not yet been se
lected, but activities will begin
under Father T, Raymond
Bluett, a marketing specialist
on loan from the diocese of San
Diego, who will act as assistant
director.
Describing the purposes of
the new office at a recent ad
dress to the National Associa
tion of Broadcasters, Bishop
Donovan said he hoped it would
be “a service agency to indus
try in all aspects of the Church’s
activities on a national or wo rid
level, by providing authoritative
information when requested.
‘This information," he con
tinued, “will be given directly
or through expert consultors to
whom inquirers will be refer
red for precise replies and
background material.”
BISHOP DONOVAN explained
the office would also provide
guidance to priests and laymen
working in diocesan communi
cations by conducting seminars,
providing operation manuals
and arranging training pro
grams with the cooperation of
the industry.
'This service," he said,
“should eventually lead to a
more effective, more frequent
and more professional use of
the air ways by diocesan groups
and agencies.*'
Bishop Donovan hailed the
creation of the office as a re
flection of the awareness of the
bishops of “the power and in
fluence*' exercised by radio
and television.
POINTING TO the great use
of radio and television in homes
throughout the country, Bishop
Donovan said, 'This extraor
dinary capacity of the electronic
wizards relates clearly to the
concern of Christ’s Church in
its efforts to carry out His mis
sion. There is, therefore, a
-■"™ I ■ - tt
bond with these communica
tions media which ‘the national
office can well play a part in
strengthening for the good of the
industry as well as of the
Church.”
Named to serve under Bishop
Donovan on the executive com
mittee for the office are:
Don McGannon, chairman of
the board, Westinghouse Broad
casting; Arthur Hull Hayes,
president, CBS Radio; Lionel
Baxter, executive vice presi
dent, Storer Broadcasting;
Warren Schwed, president Gray
Public Relations; L. T. Stelle,
executive vice president, Ben
ton and Bowles; Norman Cash,
president, Television Bureau of
Advertisers; and James Stabile,
former vice president, and gen
eral counsel for NBC.
