ing" he declared. when people

find out that there are not any
serious differences between them
and that they can work for the
welfare and the peace of the
world. That's all any of us want,

Yale, Harvard
Papers Hit By
Secular Daily

MANCHESTER, n. H., NC
The Manchester Union-LeadeY
has assailed an opinion expressed
in the Yale Daily NeDS, under
graduate newspaper, which the
Union Leader said seems to
"equate Catholicism with COM
munism."
The Yale paper said that since
the university had appointed a
Jesuit (the Rev. John Courtney
Murray to its faculty, "the ap-
pointment of an avowed and intel
lectual communist to shed light
on one phase of our times most
significant force would b c
thoroughly defensible."
At the same time the Manches-
ter daily cited an editorial attack
by the HdrUdrd Crimson on the
Una merican Activities Com
mittee's criticism of Prof. Dick
Struik of the Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology and Prof.
kirkley F. Mather of Harvard.
The Union Leader quoted the
Crimson as contending: mo one
should have the right to prevent
an individual from teaching what
he thinks right"
"Take those two statements
from the leading college news
papers," the Union-Ledder COM
mented, "and you certainly won
der where higher education has
arrived in the United States.
"The Yale undergraduate e
editors apparently equate Catholi-
cism with communism. Since the
Catholics are against communism,
you should allow the communists
to have their say, too, they con-
tend.
1T seems to make no difference
to these little nitwits that where
as some people might disagree
with the doctrines of the Jesuit
on. the faculty, counter-balancing
those beliefs with the communists
is exactly like saying, wen take
some poison to counteract the eff
feet of beneficial medicine
GAS to the Harvard laddies who
insist that anyone has a right
to teach what he thinks is right,
do they have members of the
faculty teaching atheism, bur
glary, murder, rape and treason?
"Of course not Academic free
dom doesn't 60 that far, Yet when
all these evils are combined into
political document which is
called communism, the little
stupids assume that teaching COM
munism is perfectly all right"

Fifteen Class Periods

In its introduction the syllabus
recommends that approximately 15
class periods of 80 to as minutes
each be allocated for the course.
An informal atmosphere to encour-
age questions and discussion is urg-
ed.
In many schools it will be pos
Sible to hold these classes outside
the classroom in the senior lounge,
the library, the auditorium, or in
some other place which may be
found to be suitable for this pur-
pose," the syllabus said.
Also important, according to the
syllabus, is provision for question
box since there are many ques-
tions which students will hesitate
to ask publicly"
Ideally suited" to teach such
a course are eX-chaplains or lay
faculty members with broad mill
tary experience, the publication de-
clared. 1t added that if circum-
stances permit, a physician and
representatives of the armed forces
might be invited to discuss certain
topics.

Minister Lauds
Martyrs, Hits
Bigotry Wave

PAHOKEE, Fla. - (NC) - The
Rev. John Clarence Petrie, Vicar of
the Protestant Episcopal Church
of the Holy Nativity here, address
ed a statement to the Catholic
Bishops of America, voicing SYM
pathy over the sufferings of Cath
olics behind the Iron Curtain.
The Protestant clergyman mean
while denounced what he describ-
ed as attempts to revive anti-Cath-
olic bigotry in the "days of trial"
experienced by Catholics living un-
der Communist domination.
Mr.. Petrie's statement was pub
lished in the parish bulletin after
he had passed out TO his congrega-
ton copies of the resolution eX-
pressing admiration and commits
Grafton for suffering millions" in
Iron Curtain countries adopted by
the us. Bishops at their annual
meeting in Washington, DC, last
November.
MANY of us know" Mr.. Perie
told the Bishops, that the martyr
dom of your people behind the
Iron Curtain may we'll exceed that
of the early Christians in the days
of pagan Rome. In our security
here in America, it is hard to real
iZe the horror. We join our pray
ers with yours to Almighty God
that He will have mercy upon the
human race in this day of its re-
version to atheism, animalism and
barbarity. We feel that your mar
tyrs may be all that stands between
us and the destruction of Christian
civilization"
Mr.. Petrie, who is vicar also of
ST. Martins Episcopal Church in
Clewiston, Fla, added a note con-
demning efforts by Protestants to
stir up anti-Catholic bigotry. He
said:
Those of us who know of the
heroism of your martyrs blush with
shame at our fellow religionlsts
who have chosen your day of trial
to whip up old and dying bigotry.
May God forgive such Christians. !"

Crooked LAWYERS
Keep Gangsterism
Alive In America

PHILADELPHIA-(NC) - The
gangster profession would die
natural death tomorrow if it we're
not for crooked lawyers who live
on the gold that these gunmen
have taken at the point of a gun"
Archbishop John F. O'Hara, csc,
of Philadelphia told more than
1000 members Of the legal profes-
sion at the traditional Red Mass
here.
In many ways" these crooked
lawyers ARE worse than the gang
Sters because their profession
marks them as protectors of the
people, guardians of society, and
they prey like so much vermin on
the very people that their knowl-
edge should protect" the Arch
bishop declared.
He presided and gave the sermon
at the Solemn Pontifical Mass spon-
sored by the St. Thomas More So
ciety in the Cathedral of SIS. Peter
and Paul. Bishop J. Carroll Nc
Cormick, Auxiliary of Philadel-
phia, was the Mass celebrant.
Archbishop O'Hara said that the
lawyer who rejects God and etern-
ity and thinks man is answerable
to no one except himself for his
actions, who spurns all ideas of OBJ
jective right and wrong. and sets
utility as the norm of all human
actions, will speedily annihilate
reason, and strive for results rath.
er than justice.
Perjury, intimidation, false Wit
ness are all lawful in his code, pro.
vided they serve the utilitarian pur-
pose" he continued.
THAT just man has been sent
to prison or the electric chair, or
that murderer is set free to do
more murder, makes no difference
to the man who has substituted
utility for reason. His one and only
determination is to win his case at
any cost, and since he has elimin-
ated God and destroyed reason he
has nothing to fear as long as he
evadeS the clutches of the civil
law"
