Neighborhood
Masses Begun
CLEVELAND (NC)~St. Hen
ry parish, in a mixed Negro-
white neighborhood here, has
begun a series of "neighbor
hood Masses" at 9 a.m. Sun
days in the lower church.
The parish' has been divided
into groups of some 100 fam
ilies and one or two of the
groups will attend the commu
nity Mass on appointed Sundays.
Each person will wear a name
tag and be encouraged to take
part in a social hour, with cof
fee and rolls, after Mass. Mass
commentators, ushers, and al
tar boys will come from the
neighborhood groups.
Members of each group will
be notified through announce
ments in the parish bulletin and
by personal letter prior to their
neighborhood Mass.
Msgr. William M. Cosgrove,
St. Henry pastor, said he "be
lieves the neighborhood Masses
and coffee-social hour will pro
vide opportunities for greater
friendships among parish
ioners."
NEW YORK (RNS)—Dr. Mar
tin Luther King Jr., head of
the Southern Christian Leader
ship Conference, cautioned
against placing the total blame
for the recent riots upon Ne
groes, and warned that "more
statesmanship and more sacri
fice" by the white community
was necessary to prevent fur
ther violence.
"The principal actors (of the
riots) are incontestably Ne
gro," he said in a letter to
the editors of the New York
Times, “but if the provocations
to which they are subject are
obscured, the ends of justice
and clarity will not be served.”
Unless the white society con
tributes * more statesmanship
and more sacrifice” to reliev
ing the "agony of Negro life,*
Dr. King prophesied, "harmony
will continue to elude us because
the day is past when the vio
lence of the white majority
can serve to quell the stirrings
of a people deprived and rebuked
for 350 years."
"In describing looting, as
saults and arson alone," he
said, "the crimes of economic
and social policy, which
Negroes do not make, are un
justly omitted. To do little
to relieve the agony of Negro
life is as inflammatory as in
citing to riot."
The Negro clergyman claim
ed putting "an Asian war of du
bious national interest" above
domestic needs and reforms
“that were delayed a century...
is a provocative policy.
“To treat the outbursts as a
single expression of a whole
people is oversimplification and
tends to fasten guilt of a few
on the many.

"In actual fact, the riots
are not one phenomenon, but an
intricate linking of disparate
tendencies."
But, the civil rights leader
asked: “What of the blood on
the hands of a Congress that
Sneered at a modest bill to con
trol the rats that daily bite ba
bies in the ghettos: that emas
culated a Model Cities pro
gram; thatkilled rent subsidies;
that, with Administration co-
' operation, is more than halving
desperately needed anti-pover
ty programs?
"What shall be said of the
white society that coldly stif-
fended its resistance to re
forms despite the conservative
McCone Commission's prophe
tic words following Watts: '...
the August riots may seem by
comparison to be only a cur
tain-raiser for what could blow
up one day in the future.”
"Unheeded for. two years.iL..,
said Dr. King, "the day in the
future arrived. Should not all
the culprits be put in the dock
together, white and Negro?"
German Priests Find Themselves
Less Esteemed, Survey Shows
SISTER Mary Rose, the former
Miss Betty Kennedy, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. J.K. Kennedy,
1208 N. Love Ave., Tifton, was
one of 16 young women pro
fessed as Sisters of the Blessed
Sacrament at the Motherhouse
of the congregation in Corn
wells Heights, Pa., this month.
This nationwide missionary
community has been involved
in the inner city and interracial
apostolate since its foundation
in 1891 by Mother Katharine
Drexel. Sister Mary Rose re
ceived her B.A. degree at Agnes
Scott College, Decatur, and did
post-graduate work at the Uni
versity. of-Miami, CoralGables, •
Fla., after which she' taught at
Christ the King School, Atlanta,
before entering the Sisters of
the Blessed Sacrament.
MUENSTER, Germany (NC)-
That priests are not esteemed
in today’s society was the al
most unanimous opinion of
priests surveyed in West Ger
many’s Rhineland.
Ordered by the bishops of the
region to study the reasons for
the shortage of priests, the
study was conducted by psycho
logists and completed at the end
of 1965, but the results were
not published until now.
After a thousand or so pre
liminary inquiries, those who
conducted the survey questioned
70 priests in the dioceses of
Aachen, Muenster, Essen, Pa-
derborn and Osnabruck in
greater detail.
It was the nearly unanimous
opinion of the priests surveyed
that "neither manner of dress,
ordination, education, nor celi
bacy guarantee to the priest
a sure and esteemed position
in society.”
Deprived of his traditional
prestige, the young priest has a
tendency to make a "forward
flight;" he renounces the pri
vileges remaining and seeks
above all to be, with regard to
the laity, a platform where
ideas, desires, opinions, even
conflicts meet. For him, the
insecurity of the priest involves
new possibilities from the pas
toral point of view. Unfortun
ately, the study indicates,
church authorities have re
course only to categories of
thought that are old and little
adapted to this new situation.
Priests, both young and old,
complain of their isolation. No
one "above" is concerned with
the lot of the individual priest,
they said.
St. Joseph Senior In HISTEP Program
St. Joseph Senior John Bips
is one of 11 Atlanta teenagers
participating this summer in
the Communicable Disease
Center’s HISTEP program for
outstanding science students.
HISTEP—High School Student
Training and Education Pro-
Mass Held
For Children
The St. Gerard Guild of Im
maculate Heart of Mary
attended a special Mass, July
25, during which Father
Matthew Robbins displayed and
explained the sacred vestments
and vessels to all the children.
Father Robbins invited 67
children to join him on the
altar from the Canon of the
Mass to his blessing.
Afterward the children and
their mothers picnicked on the
parish grounds.
gram — is in its fifth year at
CDC. Only high school science
student^ who have just com
pleted their junior year are
eligible for the program.
Schools invited to participate
nominate the student they con
sider deserving of this type of
training. Bips was the only
student from a Catholic High
school invited by CDC to join
the HISTEP summer session.
Bips and the other 10 students
taking part in the program spend
eight weeks of their summ er va
cation assigned to one ofCDC’s
laboratories here in Atlanta.
HISTEP-ers work a regular
40-hour week, and participate
in whatever research projects
are being conducted.
Bips assignment to the Para
sitology Training Unit offers
him the chance to obtain prac
tical experience in methods of
isolating and identifying para
sites. Under Dr. Mae Melvin’s
direction, this unit collects and
examines specimens from all
over the world. The duties in
clude, staining intestinal pro
tozoa, preparation of slides,
applying formalin ether to
specimens, and innoculation of
mice. The individual student’s
involvement in research pro
jects is determined by his own
capabilities and by the prepara
tion he brings to the CDC.
Of the HISTEP program, Bips
says: "I think it would be
beneficial for anyone who is in
terested in science because
there is no limit to what a per
son can learn."
After he graduates from St.
Joseph next year, he plans to
study for a career in microbio
logy.
The priests also resent being
overwhelmed with work, much
of which is of an administra
tive sort that could be done by
lay people and which impedes
the exercise of their essential
priestly ministry.
Almost all the priests ques
tioned spontaneously raised the
question of celibacy. ‘This
problem," the researchers
state, "serves as a scapegoat
for all the discontent and crit
icism with regard to the Church.
Not having at their disposal
any theology of celibacy, the
majority of priests see in the
celibate life the danger of a
human impoverishment, re
sented especially when they
grow old. Even older prist's,
in other respects rather criti
cal with regard to the openness
of the Church, would be in favor
of the suppression of the obli
gatory character of celibacy."
The survey also indicated
profound discontent with regard
to communication within the
Church. Curates have a great
resentment toward Church au
thorities and lack any sense
of solidarity with them. Com
munication, they feel, is a one
way street; no thought is given
to setting up apparatus to re
ceive proposals and suggestions
coming "from below to the top.”
