MOURNING FOR CARDINAL ~

Barbara Ward, Economist
And Papal Advisor, Dies
BY NC NEWS SERVICE
Barbara Ward, a member
of the Pontifical Justice
and Peace Commission and
an economist who was a
leading advocate of aid to
underdeveloped countries,
died of cancer May 31 at
her home in Lodsworth in
southern England. She was
67.
Author of more (han a
dozen books, Miss Ward
was at various times an
unofficial adviser on
foreign economic policy to
President Lyndon Johnson,
Albert Schweitzer
professor of international
economic development at
Columbia University and
president of the
London-based
International Institute for
Environment and
Development.
Once called “the most
lucid Cassandra of the
Western world,” Miss Ward
appealed constantly to the
developed nations of the
northern hemisphere to
help improve the economic
condition of the poorer
nations of the world in
order to avert disaster.
Her book “The Rich
Nations and the Poor
Nations,” published in
1962, analyzed the
problems faced by new
nations of the Third World
and described the critical
role the West should play.
“The first decision we have
to make in facing these
problems,” she wrote, “is
to abandon the fallacy that
somewhere, somehow,
everything is going to turn
out all right.”
President Johnson said
of that book, “I read it like
I do the Bible.”
In an interview in the St.
Anthony Messenger in
November 1977 Miss Ward
called for a worldwide
Marshall Plan, the program
of economic aid through
which the United States
helped rebuild Europe after
World War II.
Such a plan on a
worldwide scale was
needed “because this is
where I think we’re headed
for disaster,” she said.
“Unless we in the
developed North are
prepared to have an
entirely different policy
toward the poorest 40
percent of our planet, we
are going to have the same
kind of disaster we had in
1931. I just see it coming.”
Through the
International Institute for
Environment and
Development, a small
non-governmental
organization of which she
was president from 1973
until last year, she sought
to focus public attention
on issues of environment
and development and to
persuade policymakers to
embody her ideas in
programs.
Much of the institute’s
work is related to
international conferences,
Eager Pope May Leave Hospital By Pentecost
the Bishops Palace in Warsaw to the
Seminar Church. The Polish primate
died May 28 of cancer at age 79.

like the Food Conference
in Rome in 1973 and the
Conference on Human
Settlements, called
“Habitat,” in Vancouver,
British Columbia, in 1976.
In an interview during
the Habitat conference,
Miss Ward said, “The great
mass of Christians in
W estem society simply
have no clue that they are
the lords of creation. They
expect their children to
live. They expect to live to
be 70. Oh, they may
occasionally get dysentery
on a trip abroad.
“But they are like the
rich man in the Bible, to
whom the Lord said, ‘Thou
fool, this night thy soul is
required of thee.’”
In 1967 she was named
to the newly formed
Pontifical Justice and Peace
Commission and became
one of the first women to
hold a position in the
Roman Curia, the central
administration of the
Catholic Church.
In October 1967, at a
world congress of Catholic
laity, she helped draft a
resolution in favor of an
end to the church’s ban on
artificial birth control.
Later changing her mind on
the issue, she said that the
industrialized countries’
“obsession” with birth
control was an effort to
evade responsibility for
effecting a more equitable
distribution of the world’s
wealth. “If a man asks you
for bread and you give him
a pill, he’ll spit in your
eye,” she said at a Vatican
press conference in 1971.
WHOLESALE

ROME (NC) - Pope
John Paul II, impatient to
resume his regular duties
but yielding to doctors’
orders, remained at Rome’s
Gemelli Polyclinic for the
third weekend May 30-31
and mourned the death of
his closest colleague in the
Polish hierarchy, Cardinal
Stefan Wyszynski of
Warsaw and Gniezno.
Physicians allowed the
61-year-old pope,
recovering from gunshot
wounds after an
assassination attempt May
13, to tape a Sunday
m essage for noon
z transmission in St. Peter’s
° Square.
The message dealt
primarily with the death of
79-year-old Cardinal
Wyzsynski, primate of
Poland, whose funeral took
place that day in Warsaw.
But the pope also noted
in the noontime talk that
May 31 would have marked
the beginning of a six-day
papal trip to Switzerland.
Some of Pope John
Paul’s public statements
indicated that he was
anxious to leave the
hospital - a move that his
physicians feared would
further slow the pope’s
recovery from major
abdominal surgery.
“Certainly the physical
recovery continues
positively without
interruption, but as always
happens in these cases it is
an evolution subject to
highs and lows even on the
same day,” said Dr. Emilio
Tresalti, medical director
of the Gemelli Polyclinic,
May 29.
“For this reason it is
premature to talk about his
release from the hospital,”
he added.
Tresalti said that Pope
John Paul would not be
able to leave the polyclinic
and return to the Vatican
“for at least seven or eight
more days.”
But the estimate left
open the possibility that
the pope might leave the
hospital in time for
Pentecost celebrations
June 7. Hundreds of
bishops from throughout
the world are scheduled to
come to Vatican City for
the ceremonies.
Cardinal Ugo Poletti,
papal vicar for Rome,
fueled hopes that the pope
might attend part of the
celebrations when he wrote
in a letter to the Rome
ecclesial community: “We
trust that, on that happy
occasion, we will be able to
see him in person for the
first time since his illness.”
The letter also said Pope
John Paul had wanted the
Pentecost plans to continue
despite the attempt on his
life, and that he was
“waiting to be able to
decide in what form and
measure he may be able to
participate.”
The special Pentecost
celebration of the Holy
Spirit in Rome called for by
the Pope will begin with
first vespers and
benediction June 6 in St.
Peter’s Basilica.
On June 7, Pentecost
Sunday, the centerpiece
event will be a morning
Mass in St. Peter’s
concelebrated by bishops
from around the world.
The observance will
conclude that evening with
second vespers and Marian
devotions at St. Mary Major
Basilica.
At the end of March
Pope John Paul issued a
letter calling on the
national and regional
bishops’ conferences of the
world to send representat
ives to Rome for Pentecost
in order to mark the
1600th anniversary of the
Council of Constantinople
and the 1550th anniversary
of the Council of Ephesus.
The two councils
developed key
formulations of Christian
belief regarding the Holy
Spirit. The feast of
Pentecost in the church’s
liturgical calendar
commemorates the descent
of the Holy Spirit on the
apostles after Christ’s
ascension, which is
considered the starting
point of the life of the
church.
The Marian aspect of the
Pentecost observances is
related to the anniversary
celebration of the Council
of Ephesus, which formally
applied the title “Mother of
God” to Mary.
Task Force Leader—
PRAYING FOR ATLANTA - At a
memorial Mass and novena at St.
Aloysius Church in Ridgewood, N.Y.,
for the murder victims in Atlanta,
Giulio Flaim, left, and John Dolce
both 12, of St. Aloysius, exchange the
greeting of peace with Michael
Gilliam, 15, and Paul Brown, 13, of
St. Clement Pope parish in Jamaica,
N.Y. “We want our brothers and
sisters in Atlanta to know there are
other people praying for them,” said
Father George Schuster, St. Aloysius
pastor.

children. Now the killer or
killers have turned to
adults. My own little girl,
Monica, she’s eight, wakes
after a nightmare and
mentions the murdered
children to my wife.
“The community is
coping - and visitors to the
city can’t believe how well
- but there is fear. Don’t go
with strange men or strange
anyone else is the message.
Six-year-olds stand up and
say they are tired of being
kept in the house. They feel
like prisoners. It is tough
and it will be tough until we
solve this thing. Carol Ann
Blair, my assistant, and I
have been with
Commissioner Lee Brown
at townhall meetings and
the distress is obvious and it
is expressed. Our job is to
bring assurance - to bring
calm. And it’s happening.”
And what about the
solution? You ask the
question and you see the
investigative mind of this
cop go into action.
“We’ll get him,” said
Rinkevich, who is a
parishioner at Holy Family
parish in Marietta. “But we
need a break. Don’t forget
the Yorkshire Ripper was
out there for five years, the
English police spent
millions on the
investigation and
eventually needed that one
lucky break to catch him.
We need that lucky break
too.”
Putting his feet up on
the desk and re lighting his
unsuccessful cigar that
looks, and smells, stale, he
makes another point. “The
cooperation of the
different police
departments has been
great. Everyone who
should know what’s going
on, knows. The team is
going great. The GBI is in
on it. The FBI is in with
men on the street and as a
federal agency they are
working on it. We have the
best. We’re well organized.
We just need that break.”
How does Rinkevich
2 view the self-help projects
implemented in some areas
of the city. “Generally
good,” comes the reply.
“But patrols and other such
vigilantes, condemned by
the police and city hall,
won’t be helpful. This
menace will be solved by
community responsibility.
Block parents are great.
The searchers have been
most helpful -- they, of
course, even found one of
the bodies. We just don’t
need anything that would
impede the investigation.”
Rinkevich is most
gratified by the response
from every corner of
Atlanta and even the
nation. “The White House
has been there to be of
help. The Vice President,
on more than one occasion,
has shown his human
concern and here in the city
the one word describing the
spirit has been support. In
my 20 years in law
enforcement, I have not
seen the likes. It is great.”
Those 20 years have
been spent North and
South, state and federal.
Bom in Grandville near
Grand Rapids in Michigan,
Rinkevich went to
Michigan State. He joined
the University Police
Department and in 1965
headed South to Savannah.
Subsequently he served
with police training at the
University of Georgia.
After going North for a
short time, he joined LEA A
in 1981 and has been with
that agency ever since. He
has assumed head of this
federal Task Force for the
Atlanta emergency.
“It is a two person job,”
says Charlie Rinkevich.
“My assistant, Carol Ann
Blair, was also with LEAA.
Together we respond to the
needs of this job. And we
will continue until this
emergency has passed.”
“Safe Summer 81” is a
big concern of Rinkevich
and the Task Force. “We
want it to be a success,”
says Charlie Rinkevich,
“and we are grateful to
everyone who is pitching
in. I am personally proud of
Camp Promise - the effort
of the Catholic
community, my own
Church, and what that
program hopes to do. We
want it to be a great
summer for our kids. We
want plenty of helpful
hands.”
In the city of Atlanta,
there is evident great
concern and worry that
some killer is out there
defying our best efforts to
slow down his murderous
intentions. It is difficult to
be at ease while this danger
lurks in secret shadows. A
man like Charles Francis
Rinkevich, a man of
strength, knowledge and
compassion, gives assurance
and provides a healing
presence in this emergency.
We are glad he is there.
