COURSES PLANNED
ON DEMOCRACY
Catholics Stress Ideal In
Response to Plea of
Pope to c. u.

The entire Catholic school system
in America will put new emphasis on
teaching democratic ideals through
special courses to be prepared by
Catholic University here in response to
plea from Pope Plus XII to meet
the challenge Of these critical times"
The unprecedented program-which
will affect nearly 100000 students in
Catholic schools throughout the coun-
try and about 10000 in the District
was launched by the American Cath
olic hierarchy ut the annual meeting
OF the bishops on the university cam
pus yesterday.
The papal message which inspired
the action was read at the convocation
OF more than 1000 cleric and lay stu
dents, faculty and ofiiciab Of the uni
versity on the occasion Of the ofiicial
opening Of the institutions golden
jubilee year.
Interpreted as an indirect reproach
to countries denying liberty to the in
dividual, the Pope's message declared
Catholics necessarily are defenders Of
true human liberties" and emphasized
that through the university here 1T
will be possible to bring to bear upon
the most pressing problems Of the day
the full force Of those principles OF
justice and charity in which alone
they will find their solution"
Pope Suggests Program.
The university, 1t said, can "evolve
constructive program Of social ac-
ton. f1tted In its details to local needs"
and giving special attention to the
sciences Of civics, sociology and eco
Monies, to combat the period of un-
rest in the world.
Decision of the bishops to inaugu[
rate in all the Catholic schools Of
the country the special courses to be
prepared by the university in response
to the plea was announced at the
convocation by the Right Rev. Msgr.
Joseph M. Corrigan, rector of the
university. 1t was cabled immediat tely
to the Vatican over the signature Of

research study instead of undergraau-
ate activity.

Graduate School Emphasis.
As a college, he said, the institution
could not claim the support Of Cath

there are many other Catholic COL

Complaints about antitrust en-
