BABY SELLING’
Blasts Adoption Subsidy
WASHINGTON (NC) -- The Carter Administration plan to
subsidize adoptions amounts to “baby-selling,” the National
Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL,) has charged.
“In essence, you suggest we pay poor people to
have unwanted children only to sell them to other poor people
who may not be able to provide good home environments,”
NARAL’s executive director, Karen Mulhauser, wrote in a letter
to Secretary Joseph Califano of Health, Education and Welfare.
“We are astounded,” she said, “that you appear to be
promoting the birth of unwanted children to be placed in
subsidized adoptive homes at the very time when a serious
problem exists in finding ways to place the thousands of
existing adoptable children.”
The Administration has backed a plan to subsidize adoption
costs for low- and middle-income families and for families
adopting hard-to-place children - handicapped, minority or
older children or two or more members of the same family.
NARAL said “it is clearly documented that hundreds of
thousands of poor women wish to limit childbearing ... If we
promote adoption by families already living at poverty level,
what sort of life will we be able to guarantee for the adopted
child?”
“Although there are many good foster homes,” NARAL said,
“we have seen that subsidized foster care often leads to abuse
and scandal because irresponsible people have taken children for
the purposes of supplementing their own incomes.
“Adoption is permanent. Once the government has paid a
family to adopt a child, there is no guarantee that further
monitoring will lead to proper care of the child,” NARAL said.
NARAL said “child abuse statistics are frightening at present
and would continue to rise under your proposed system.”
Police Chaplain Workshop
Father Edward Dillon,
Officialis of the Archdiocese,
and Monsignor Don Kieman,
Pastor of Sandy Spring’s
Saint Jude’s Church joined 78
other clergymen of various
denominations at
Indianapolis’ Central Indiana
University for a four-day
workshop on procedures for
Chaplains to police
departments.
The program included
sessions on Troubled
Employees; Victim
Assistance; Police Stress;
Counselling to Wives/Hus-
bands of Police Officers;
Reserve Chaplaincy Program,
and Starting a Chaplaincy
program.
The workshop sponsored
by the International
Association of Police
Chaplains heard an opening
address by Father R. Joseph
Dooley of Washington, D.C.,
who was the first President of
the group. In his address
Father Dooley noted that the
organization began with four
chaplains and now numbers
nearly 300. Father Dooley
has recently been appointed
as a full time Chaplain to the
Washington, D.C. Police
Department.
During the Session a
discussion on regional
meetings was discussed.
Because of the element of
time an Ad Hoc committee
was appointed to bring up for
consideration the division of
the Association into regions.
Monsignor Kieman was
appointed to head this
committee and before the
conclusion of the four-day
meeting he presented his
resolution which was
unanimously adopted by the
delegates. Consequently an
experiment of the country
being deivided into six
regions, with regional
meetings being held, will be
initiated next year.
Father Dillon is Chaplain
to the Fulton County Police
Department, and Monsignor
Kieman is Chaplain to the
Georgia State Patrol. Both
priests are also volunteer
Chaplains to the Atlanta
Bureau of Police Services.

Help For Vietnamese ‘Boat People’
WASHINGTON (NC) -
Heads of eight voluntary
agencies - including the U.S.
Catholic Conference - who
resettled most of the
Indochinese refugees in the
United States following the
Vietnam war say “we are
ready to do our part” for
15,000 new refugees likely to
enter the country soon.
The voluntary agencies
pledged “full and unqualified
support” to a State
Department request for
President Carter’s permission
to “parole” the refugees into
the country.
The refugees include some
6,000 “boat cases,” refugees
who left Vietnam in small
boats and are sailing around
the Pacific basin in Southeast
Asia.
“The reception given the
refugees in many countries is
extremely hostile, and many
refugees are left to the perils
of the open sea,” the agencies
said in a letter to Carter.
“Recent articles describing
refugees drowning at sea,
ships refusing to heed SOS
signals, countries refusing safe
haven, and conditions in
makeshift refugee camps bear
witness to the need to act
with greater equanimity and
urgency.”
Carter does not need
congressional approval to
allow the refugees to enter,
although he will eventually
need money from Congress to
handle their resettlement.

be no paper next week.

LOW BACK PAIN?
Seventy million people in
the U.S. suffer low back pain
and seven million are treated
each day. The majority of
these have lumbar disks
involved pressing on
descending spinal nerves. This
causes pain, cramping, tingling
and numbness in the lower
back. These conditions often
radiate down the back or sides
of one or both legs.
Constipation, menstrual and
urinary disorders are often
experienced. Modem research
has found methods of
reducing disk herneation (Slip
Disk) without hospitalization
and surgery in many cases.

The current U.S.
Vietnamese program allows
100 family units, or 400
people, to enter the United
States each month, an
“insufficient” response, the
voluntary agencies said.
In addition to the 6,000
“boat cases,” the voluntary
agencies said, there are about
75,000 Indochinese refugees
in Thailand. Of these, the
agency heads said, 9,000 have
immediate family ties in the
United States and 4,500 are
former U.S. government
employes or were closely
associated with the U.S.
involvement in Indochina.
The eight voluntary
agencies have resettled almost
150,000 Indochinese refugees
since April, 1975. “The
voluntary agencies have
expended enormous energy
and substance to resettle
Indochinese refugees over the
past two years,” the agency
heads said.
“The job is clearly not yet
finished. We must move
swiftly and with resolution to
meet a continuing national
responsibility to the
remaining victims of the
Indochinese conflict. We are
ready to do our part.”
The agency heads are John
McCarthy, director of
Migration and Refugee
Service of the U.S. Catholic
Conference; Wells Kelin,
executive director of the
American Council for
Nationalities Service; Nancy
