WASHINGTON (NC) -
Jesuit Father Patrick
McDermott, assistant director
of the U.S. Catholic
Conference division of world
justice and peace, is leaving

AUCKLAND, New
Zealand (NC) — The
Catholics of the Auckland
diocese were told by their
bishop that Father Hans
Kung, controversial Swiss
theologian, will lecture here
only “in his academic
capacity and not as a priest
enjoying the full confidence
of the bishops of New
Zealand.”
In a pastoral letter, Bishop
Reginald Delargey said that
Father Kung did not ask for
faculties to preach or teach as
a priest in the Auckland
diocese and that “whatever
he does is done in his private
capacity and on his own
initiative.”
Father Kung was invited to
lecture in New Zealand by
the theology faculty of Otago
University, Dunedin, and will
also lecture at St. John’s
Anglican College here. Bishop
Delargey said that “Professor
Kung has recently written
and spoken in ways which
make some reputable
theologians throw doubt on
his Catholic orthodoxy.”

UTRECHT, The
Netherlands (NC) — The
leader of a Catholic
traditionalist group who
recently defied Cardinal
Bernard Alfrink of Utrecht
said he submits
“unconditionally” to the
Pope’s authority.
The traditionalist leader is
Father Winland Kotte, who
celebrated Mass in the St.
Willibrord church here after
the cardinal warned that the
group’s liturgical activities are
carried on without his
authorization. The priest told
a reporter: “If the Pope
speaks only one word
disapproving our activities,
we will stop immediately.”
The 48-year-old priest,
who left the Assumptionist
Fathers because of his
traditionalist views, told a
reporter for the Dutch
national Catholic daily De
Tijd: ‘‘I submit
unconditionally to the Pope’s
authority even if the Pope
would demand that I obey
Cardinal Alfrink.” v

major public address with
President Nixon one of his
listeners, Cardinal Terence
Cooke took sharp issue with
the recent U.S. Supreme
Court decision that branded
parochial school aid
religiously divisive and
unconstitutional.
The New York archbishop
shared the podium with
Nixon at the main dinner at
the 89th annual convention
of the Supreme Council of
the Knights of Columbus.
In a clear reference to the
impact of the Supreme Court
ruling, the cardinal labeled as
an “exercise in semantics”
the right of parents to send
their children to qualified
schools of their choice when
they “do not have the
right-along with their fellow
citizens-to receive back from
the government any of the
moneys which they and their
families are contributing to
the education of America’s
youth.”

HOUSTON (NC) - The
Catholic Church has yet to
commit itself fully to
preaching the word of God to
the handicapped, according
to the Catholic chaplain at
Galludet College for the Deaf
in Washington, D.C.
Father Rudy Gawlik-a
Holy Cross priest ordained in
19 67--said the biggest
handicap of deafness is an
information gap. A deaf
person must consciously learn
everything he learns, unable
to count on exposure to
sources like television and
radio, the priest said.
Father Gawlik made his
observations while addressing
the Texas Knights of
Columbus, who sponsored a
Texas Catholic Deaf
Community Week at St.
Mary’s Seminary here. What
is needed to fulfill the
Church’s teaching mission for
the deaf is a center for
training priests, Religious and
lay people to work with the
deaf, Father Gawlik said.

WASHINGTON (NC) -
School tuition increases
already scheduled for fall
could take effect despite
President Nixon’s
three-month wage-price
freeze, according to a
Treasury Department
spokesman.
However, it remains
unclear whether promised
salary raises would be
permitted for teachers in
public or private schools. The
Office of Emergency
Preparedness in Washington
told NC News that although
tuitions will not be affected
by the freeze, there is “some
confusion” about what type
of workers it will effect.

NEW YORK (NC) -
President Nixon received a
standing ovation from 2,000
listeners as he pledged his
personal support to parochial
schools in addressing the
Knights of Columbus annual
dinner here Aug. 17.
Speaking of the character
of the nation, he said: “We
must see to it that our
children are provided with
the moral, spiritual and
religious values so necessary
to a great people in great
times.
“As we see those private
and parochial schools, which
lay such stress on those
values, close at the rate of
one a day, we must resolve to
stop that trend and turn it
around. And you can count
on my help in doing just
that.”

CHICAGO (NC) - Based
on the belief that Catholic
schools can weather the crisis
of closing down, the Chicago
archdiocese is offering some
how-to-do-it suggestions on
saving the schools.
The suggestions are
contained in an archdiocesan
school board report, “Future
Directions for Catholic
Schools,” compiled by a
special commission. The
25-member commission is
composed of priests, nuns,
lawyers, businessmen,
educators and city officials.
The commission
emphasized that if the
Catholic schools are to
survive they must make some
changes especially in giving
parents a more active voice,
and the urban poor more
opportunities within the
Catholic school system. Other
predicted changes for a
healthier Catholic school
system will be for schools to
have more freedom in
introducing innovations, the
commission reported.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn.
(NC) — Bishop Walter W.
Curtis of Bridgeport has
signed a decree permitting
sweeping changes affecting
300,000 Catholics in the
diocese.
His action, at a diocesan
synod that included laymen,
paved the way for women
lectors, increased lay
participation in the Church
and broader ecumenical
activities such as interfaith
services and the celebration
of the Passover Seder with
Jews.
Basically, the laws he
signed in a ceremony before
more than 1,000 persons in
St. Augustine’s Cathedral
here, provided for changes in
line with recommendations of
Vatican II. The documents
approved by the bishop were
written after a two-year study
that included public hearings
and voting by parishioners.

The Knights of Peter Claver, a
black Catholic fraternal
order, has recommended that
a black archbishop be named
for the nation’s capital.
The Knights’ annual
convention here uacked the
recommendation made by the
National Office of Black
Catholics (NOBC) and
endorsed by other groups and
individuals. The Black Lay
Caucus of Washington and
Father Robert W. Hovda,
editor of Living Word
magazine, also have made
similar requests.
Washington’s present
archbishop, Cardinal Patrick
O’Boyle, is 75 years old and
has submitted his resignation
in accordance With the
Vatican directive requesting
bishops to offer their
resignation when they reach
that age. The resignation,
however, has not been
accepted to date.

HAMBURG, Germany
(NC) - World War III is not
only possible-it is probable,
according to a study by a
group of peace research
experts.
The six-year study was
conducted by Germany’s
Institute for Peace Research,
headed by its founder,
scientist and philosopher
Carol Friedrich von
Weizacker. The institute
investigated the possibility of
war, the consequences of
world conflict and how to
prevent a third world war.
One of the group’s
conclusions contests the
concept of deterrence as a
way to avoid world war. The
peace researchers admitted
that this concept has worked
thus far. But, they concluded,

MOBILE, Ala. (NC) -
Bishop John May of Mobile
has accused Alabama Gov.
George C. Wallace of using an
“unfortunate statement” by
President Nixon to throw a
stumbling block into the path
of school integration.
Bishop May expressed
disappointment over
Wallace’s challenge to the
federal courts when the
governor ordered an Alabama
county school board to
transfer a teen-age girl from a
predominantly black high
school, 28 miles away, to a
predominantly white one
nearer her home.
The “unfortunate
statement” to which Bishop
May referred was Nixon’s
stated policy against massive
school busing which the
president said should be
enforced only to the degree
required by law.
“I believe President Nixon
has given Gov. Wallace a great
handle for taking advantage
of things,” said Bishop May
who said the busing issue is
only incidental to the real
issue of school integration.
He said Wallace’s action was
particularly unfortunate
because citizens of the Mobile
area were preparing for the
opening of the fall school
semester with “a full scale
integration, the likes of which
has not been seen anywhere
in the North.”
