The Archdiocesan Christian
Unity Commission met during
the weekend at Ignatius House
to chart the course toward unity
and discuss the obstacles.
Members of the commission
discussed their roles and a-
greed that they could disagree
with each other and still do their
job.
"We should get into the areas
of religious freedom, authority
in the Church and the primacy
of the pope because these are
definite areas where we have
trouble relating to others,’’said
Father John L. Hein S.J., a
member of the commission.
**We have been raised in a
tradition of condemnation, and
the papacy—as Pope Paul VI
recently pointed out—has been a
stumbling block,” the priest
said. "It is a stumbling block,
but even more so because of our
lack of understanding of what
it really means.”
Father Matthew Kemp,
priest-;Secretary said theCon-
stitution ontheChurch should be
Studied. "The Church as a sigh
of unity rather than merely a
means to salvation should be
studied,” he said.
In discussing fields of ecu
menical activity, the group talk
ed of a ministry to labor, an
ecumenical vacation Bible
school.
The Rev. Daniel Brand told
the commission that nothing is
being done on dialogue between
labor and the ChristianChurch.
"I don’t think many pastors
could handles the situation'
Leo Zuber said, ’’because it
takes background to speak on
labor, and we drowse during
sermons dealing with generali
ties.”
Sister Mary Jacob S.C.M.M.
said, "I don’t agree. Society is
evolving and we have to look at
the situations we are involved
with.”
Asked why he accepted the
chairman’s job, Ferdinand Buc
kley said he had some feeling
of reservations about his qua
lifications. "I don’t think I am
reactionary, but I don’t believe
I’m in the forefront of change.
"However, I deeply appre
ciate the changes in the liturgy
and the idea of unity,” he said.

TORONTO (NC)—The role of
the Catholic press in the post-
conciliar Church is “incom
patible with a press emanating
from the chancery office,” a
leading Canadian Catholic
journalist told the Catholic
Press Association.
But Douglas Roche, editor of
the Western Catholic Reporter
in Edmonton, Alta., said this
does not mean that the diocesan
press must break away from
the bishops.
Roche delivered the keynote
.address Wednesday at the Cath
olic Press Association’s 57th
annual convention here at the
King Edward Sheraton Hotel.
“I want to de-officialize the
press not to divide but to unify,”
he said. “It must bd made clear
that we are not asking for a
press that is independent of
the authority of the bishops,
whose duty it is to see that the
defined teaching of the Catholic
Church... is preserved.
every diocesan paper...ap-
pointed by the bishop and given
the responsibility to supervise
the content and operation of
the paper and to vote confidence
or non-confidence in the
editor.”
Such a board, he said, would
“help the paper discard the
stamp of the chancery office,
while protecting doctrinal
orthodoxy” would “protect the
integrity of the paper against
any impressions in the public
mind that those in authority
desire to control the flow of
news” and would “reflect the
post-conciliar fact that here
i s a paper of the people of God.”
Such a move would also
prevent the paper from
becoming "a personal vehicle
for the bishop of the editor.”
—Plan “more aggressive
ways of attracting bright young
men into the Catholic press,
for we face a shortage of trained
Catholic editors.”
—“We should come to grips
with the organization of an as
sociation of professional Cath
olic editors.”
Roche recognized one problem
of the post-conciliar Catholic
press:
“We must be careful not to
give the impression that we
are developing into mod gang-
busters with the news,” he said.
“The vitality that has replaced
the undue timidity and conform
ism of the past does not need
bumptiousness or satire as an
ingredient.
“We must help those in
authority become as convinced
as we are that the proper
functioning of the press
requires a degree of liberty
and discretion of editors that
is foreign to many of the tra
ditional attitudes of Catholic
leaders.
“We must help them to learn
to live with the press and with
public opinion, even when it
hurts,” he said.
“But the press must be in
dependent in providing reports
and forum for discussion of
current issues. If it does not
achieve this operational inde
pendence, the process of
maturation will be choked off,”
he said.
Roches then proposed a
number of ways in which the
Catholic press can achieve the
necessary independence without
cutting its ties with the bishops:
