6 GEORGIA BULLETIN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1967 CALENDAR On Latin Church Work 11 MM rwA mart, ■ *&! BISHOP Joseph L. Bernardin visited Carrollton for the first time on Tuesday, January 17, to ad minister confirmation at the Church of Our Lady. He is pictured above with the pastor, Father M. Jar lath Burke. Those confirmed are, first row: Dwight Bishop, Teresa Await, Debbie Cochran, Judy Moran, Donna Willegalle; top row, Miss Carol Rayburn, Miss Johnnie Crider and John Brinkley of West Georgia College. Following the service, the bishop met members of the church at a recep tion in the parish hall.: Conflicts Could Change Society, Ministers Told COLUMBUS, Ohio (RNS) — Churches too often work to mediate or be neutral in con flict when they should let con flict run its course and help change society, a national school desegregation authority tojld Ohio ministers. Dr. Dan Dodson, New York University professor of edu cation, said neutrality in many cases represents moral com promise. Conflict is creative and nec essary, he said, because rela tionships between men cannot be changed without restructur ing the arrangements of'socie ty.. Director of NYU’s Center for Human Relations and Communi ty Studies, he told ministers at tending the Ohio Pastors Convo cation that civil rights advances in recent years came from a change in the "power lever age,’* not from a change in the hearts of the American people.” Preaching and praying will not produce the moral changes churches want without the ope ration of these power and con flict factors, Dr. Dodson claim ed. "A moral society will not be built unless the society ar rangements are altered so that it is in the interests of more people to be moral. . . "If the church then wants a moral society, it must find ways through which to bring its lev erage to bear on significant is sues and learn the art and skill of conflict to bring about their alteration.” He charged that churches in creasingly have become places where "pious people escape the encounter,” forcing those who wish to make a serious witness to their commitments to seek secular channels in which to ex press themselves. "In many of the cities the denominations are supporting the'work of Saul Alinsky to do community organizing of the poor,” he said. “Here it (her comes) a considerable com mentary on us that it is easier to hire a secularist to make our witness for us than it is to doit ourselves. It might be added that it’s a good deal safer,” Noting it was perhaps unfit ting that he should speak on "conflict” at the closing ses sion of a three-day convoca tion which had "To Heal the Broken” as its theme, Dr. Dodson said, "The broken can not be healed if the structural relations between groups are conflict producing and debilit ating.” Predicting that a new morali ty will emerge from the inner city, he said the church must be a part of the process if it wants to be relevant. ‘The most healing balm of all would be a new morality which would make a restructured society more en compassing for more people,” he added.

BOSTON (NC) — A Catholic ■magazine article questioning the efficacy of U, S. Church work in Latin America was de nounced here by Richard Card inal Cushing of Boston. In a surprise appearance be fore the fourth annual national conference of the Catholic In ter - American Cooperation Program, the cardinal read a letter he had received from Archbishop Egidio Vagnozzi, apostolic delegate in the United States, criticizing the article which appeared in America weekly magazine published by the Jesuits in New York, The article, by Msgr. IvanD. Illich, director of the Center of Inter-Cultural Documentation in Cuernavaca, Mexico, was in the magazine’s Jan. 21 issue. Cardinal Cushing had refer red to Archbishop Vagnozzi*s letter at the opening confer ence session earlier in the day, but at that time he would not make its contents public. Later he changed his mind. Archbishop Vagnozzi termed Msgr. Illich’s article an "at- tack...on the papal program for Latin America” and expressed hope that Cardinal Cushing would “take proper steps to offset the harm which might conceivably result.” While reading the letter, Cardinal Cushing digressed several times to add his per sonal criticism of the article and called two different parts in it "colossal lies.*’ Archbishop Vagnozzi review ed the history of papal pleas for aid to Latin America. He said "when the young writer of this article asks Vhy’ the Church in the United States presumes to work for Latin America, one of the answers is that the popes have begged your bishops, priests and faithful to do exactly that. ;• ir'./iA jl Vi/wi A A "Pope John alone, ” be wrote,: "in the four short years of his pontificate issued 33public doc uments exhorting the Church in every country to send person nel and means to this area of world Christianity.” Cardinal Cushing, who is chairman of the U.S, Bishops* Committee for Latin America, recalled that Pope Pius XII had pleaded with him to ’’send priests to Latin America.’’ The cardinal said he had been encouraged in his efforts to es tablish the St. J ames the Apostle Society by the late President John F, Kennedy, who told him that Latin America was the "most critical area in the world.” MSGR. ILLICH the apostolic delegate pointed out that in November, 1959, Pope John XXIII established an emergency fund for Latin America and "directed a small portion of the various mission collections of the United States to meet grave needs of the Church" there. “This temporary emergency fund,” the archbishop wrote, "was allocated exclusively by the Holy See. Hence the sug gestion in the article that funds of the Extension Society were : arbitrarily directed to Latin America by the Washington bur eau of the American bishops is quite incorrect.” Cardinal Cushing called the suggestion a "colossal lie.” He used the term again after reading from Archbishop Vag- nozzi's letter that the "writer likewise does a grave wrong to both the bishops and the relig ious congregations of the United States in suggesting that they have responded poorly to the Pope's appeal for personnel. “In the case of the action of the bishops'in this regard,"the apostolic delegate said, "what has happened represents a bril liant page in the history of the Church in the United States.*’ The archbishop cited the ef forts of Cardinal Cushing and other bishops in sending dioce san priests to Latin America and a recent report by Arch bishop Joseph T. McGucken of San Francisco, chairman of the committee on personnel for the U.S, Bishops’ Committee for Latin America, showing that more than 5,000 Catholics from the United States currently are doing Church work in Latin America. Christians Clean Jewish Cemeteries NEW ORLEANS (NC) — Ca tholic and Protestant clergymen here recruited a band of high school students who went to work erasing- defacements on more than 100 grave markers in two Jewish cemeteries. Vandals, apparently in night forays, sprayed nazi symbols In black and red paint on the grave markers. The symbols included swastikas and SS symbols of Germany’s Hitler regime; ham mer - and - sickle symbols of communism; inscriptions like "They Shall De,” "Death,”-- and “6,000,000 — Was It Enough?" Some 40 tombstones in Dispersed of Judah Cemetery were defaced and 70 in Hebrew Rest Cemetery. The restoration was a joint project of the Catholic New Or leans archdiocese and the New Orleans Federation of Chur ches. Bef ore the clean-up cam paign was undertaken labora tory analysis of the paint was made to determine chemicals which would remove the defac ings. The Christian clean-up cam paign was headed by the Rev. A.W. Townsend, president of the Protestant church federaton, and Msgr. Charles J. Plauche, chairman of the archdiocesan commission for ecumenical af fairs. In his letter to the cardinal, Rabbi Julian B. Feibelman of Temple Sinai, who accompanied the *Christian group to the ce meteries, said: "I want to ex press a word of deep gratituude to our Christian friends and colleagues who came here to view the desecration andforthe feeling in their hearts which prompts a sympathy for the dead and for this unspeakable and unforgivable horror." * DENNIS Fitzgerald was in stalled as president of the Newman Club at the University of Pennsylvania in a ceremony in St. Bede’s Chapel, Dennis, a junior is a member of St. John the Evangelist Church of Hapeville, a graduate of St. Joseph High School, and is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Fitzgerald of College Park.
