Red Membership
Drops One-Fourth
During Past Year

WASHINGTON-NC) - Public
awarenesS of what communism
really is has in a large measure
been responsible for a drop of one
fourth in the membership of the
Communist Party in the United
States during the past year, FBI
Director j. Edgar Hoover told the
House Appropriations Committee.
Mr.. Hoover said a year ago the
Communist Party membership was
43,217. Today it is 31,608, he said.
Another factor for the member
ship drop-off, Mr.. Hoover said was
the fear of prosecution as a result
of Congressional investigations and
trials and arrests of Reds.
Communists no longer issue
membership cards and they now
meet in secret, Mr.. Hoover told
the committee. He said that a third
of the present membership in the
party has gone underground, about
half of them in the New York area.
He said California, Illinois, Ohio,
New Jersey, Massachusetts, Mime
sofa, Pennsylvania and Michigan
have other centerS of heavy COM
munist activities.

Clergy, a burning zeal to assist
in any and every possible way
all efforts to transform our
homes into little churches.
We note, of course, with much
satisfaction the many efforts
that are being devoted today to
the economic betterment of the
family. But here, too, we insist
there is no room for complacen
cy. In this Convention, we take
occasion specifically to call at
tention to the inadequate hous
ing that still exists, particularly
so in the case of larger families.
We deplore the fact that our
present economy is characteriz-
ed by such a Short-sighted ap.
proach to this important need of
normal and successful family
living that it seems to find pos
Sibilities for expansion in all
fields except housing.
The ferment of ideas in the
fields of marriage and the fam
lily that has been so characters,
tic of the past decades continues
on. Needless to say, our princi-
Piles remain unchanged. Here,
too, we would single out one
particular item for special men,
ton. We reiterate our unalter-
able stand against the Planned
Parenthood Movement, with its
emphasis on unnatural birth con-
troll. Indeed, we condemn it, as
heretofore, as immoral and un-
christian, as subversive and de-

Urges Charity
Agencies Seek
Aid OF Unions
Abp. O'Boyle Praises Role
Of Labor In Public And
Private Welfare Work

WASHINGTON - An Archbish-
op who held two of the highest
Catholic welfare posts in the Unit
ed States has called on public and
private charitable agencies to vel
come participation by union repre-
sentatiyes in their activities.
Archbishop Patrick A. O'Boyle of
Washington, former director of
Catholic Charities in the New York
Archdiocese and former executive
director of War Relief Services
National Catholic Welfare Confer
ence, issued this call at a dinner
in his residence to which he invit-
ed labor union officials and others
active in the labor field.
In his Catholic Charities and
WRS-N.C.W.C. work, Archbishop
O'Boyle said, he "had the privi-
lege of cooperating from time to
time with official representatives
of the American labor movement"
High Praise
Il cherish this experience for it
brought me into personal contact
with very important phase of
organized labor's program and one
which has not been sufficiently
publicized and has not received the
degree of public recognition it so
richly deserves" he declared. 81
refer to labor's wholehearted par
ticipation in community affairs and
its very generous support OF char
liable causes designed to promote
the welfare of all of our fellow
citizens regardless of race, creed or
color.
Il am confident that the Amer
lean people will gradually come to
recognize the importance of la
bor's contribution to community
welfare and that charitable agen-
cies, both public and private, will
increasingly welcome the official
participation of union representa-
tives in the preparation and ad-
ministration of their various COM
munity-wide activities"
The informal dinner served as
a kickoff for a special labor
committees fund-raising campaign
for construction of a new Provi-
dence Hospital here, to be operated
by the Sisters of Charity.

'The family retreat is the most
effective of all the movements
calculated to sanctify the home" I"
Bishop John J. Wright of Worces-
ter declared at a general session
of the Twentieth annual conven-
ton of the National Catholic Fam
lily Conference in Columbus Tues
day, March 25.
"The most urgent need of the
present hour is for saints" he said,
especially for saints who will ex-
emplify the ideal wife, the ideal
husband-and who will dramatic
the Christian ideal in marriage"
Bishop Wright, who is episcopal
adviser to the National Catholic
Laymen's Retreat Conference, made
it clear that family retreats differ
from the usual "closed" retreat.
Every retreat is a withdrawing
apart from the routine concerns
and preoccupations of life in the
world" he pointed out, Ito think of
the life of the world to come-to
think of God"
Stress Together-ness
But family retreat consists of
"a few hours of religious exercises
in which whole families, or at least
parents, join together in order to
refresh their deeply held but some
times careworn or dulled convic-
tions concerning Gods plan for
the family, Christ's place in the
family, the effectiveness of the
family as a school of sanctity-
as the best school of sanctity."
It is not, he insisted, a day of
family counSeling, or of technical
talks on budgets, or round-table
discussions of child guidance, sex,

take its stand.
That a harmful, debilitating
secularism has in the past made
deep inroads into the homes of
America cannot be questioned.
Many homes have been giving
but scant attention to the things
of religion within the family cir
Gle. Great numbers have looked
upon marriage merely as a pro-
fame contract and upon the
home as an institution shorn of
all sanctity.
But, happily, there is encour-
aging evidence that many differ
ent attitudes are emerging and
that gradually the pail is lift
ing. The Theme of our Conven-
tion-"The Home, A Church in
Miniature" which proved to be
so happy a choice, brought this
to the fore. AS the discussions
proceeded, a great eagerness on
the part of the laity to put into
practical everyday use the many
available media for renewing the
spiritual life of the family and
sanctifying the home manifested
itself, and on the part of the

Enrolment In Catholic Schools
Scars $50 In Past Ten Years

NEW YORK - MC) - Catholic
schools and colleges in the United
States have made extraordinary
strides in the past decade, record
ing an increase of 35 per cent in
enrollments and now boasting a
record high of 100000 students.
Catholic elementary schools have
for the first time an attendance
topping the 5000, ,000-mark, with
schools of the secondary level list
ing 100000 students, according to
a survey made by Benjamin Fine
of the staff of The Nel1 York
Times. Catholic institutions of
higher learning have 350,000 stu
dents on their rolls, his survey
showed, and the total figure for
Catholic school and college en-
rollments is expected to reach
100000 by 1860.
NetU York Leads
The survey, based on data sup
piled by more than rs per cent of
the archdioceses and dioceses in
the United States, reports that New
York State leads with 900 elemen-
tary schools and the Archdiocese
of New York with 284 elementary
schools and SO secondary schools.
The Diocese of Brooklyn has 227
elementary schools and So secon-
dary schools. These two Sees head
the list.
Ii is indicated that about so per
cent of Catholic children of school
age attend parochial schools and
the remaining 40 per cent are in
public schools. In order to meet
the acute pressure for space the
Catholic school plant expansion
program which is expected to cost
$3.50, 100000, is being pushed in the
face of the problems of obtaining
steel and other critical building
supplies.
Facilities costing S130, 900, 900
are under construction and build
ing projects valued at $11,00,000
are projected next year.
Not Enough Teachers
1t was brought out that the
teacher shortage is limiting even
further expansions. Difficulty is
reported in finding the necessary

legislation, or other legitimate tenn
poral considerations"
The purpose of the family re-
treat, Bishop Wright went on, is
ito recapture, to revivify the ideal
ism in which the marriage vows
originally were exchanged"
Results Promising
Admitting that no accurate
measure of the family retreats sue
cess in achieving its purposes has
been made, the Bishop said it is
nevertheless very clear that the
movement has greatly helped the
home, the family, the general COM
munity, and the Church.
"It makes the home holy place,
a vestibule of heaven, church in
miniature" he said. "There is
great emphasis on the use of sacra-
mentals associated with holy
homes: the blessing of children, of
bedrooms, the whole ritual of
blessings"
He deplored the fact that I'VE
have lost sight of the sacramentals
of the home, and pointed out that
''the ancient blessings have not
lost their ancient force"
Citing the serious need of priests
and nuns in the U.S.-"a need
which will make or break the fu-
ture of the Church in this coun-
try"-Bishop Wright declared that
the family retreat produces the
kind of parents who are not mere
ly willing ga difficult enough vic
tory in these days'D but anxious
c'heroic victory in these days'D,
to give their sons and daughters to
the Church"
