The Sacred Priesthood d

1t is the priests task to
clear away from mems minds
the mass of prejudices and
misunderstanding which hos
tile adyersaries have piled up;
the modern mind is eager for
the truth, and the priest should
be able to point it out with Sc
rene frankness; there are souls
still hesitating, distressed by
doubts, and the priest should
inspire courage and trust, and
guide them with calm security
to the safe port of faith, faith
accepted by both head and
heart; error makes its on
slaughts, arrogant and persist
ent, and the priest should know
how to meet them with a de-
fense vigorous and active yet
solid and unruffled.

of chaplains in its army of any
country, figures released, by the
Dutch army's chief chaplain indi-
cate.
Msgr. Herman Van Stralen re-
ported that there is one Catholic
and one Protestant chaplain for ev-
cry 1,500 men, and in wartime for
every 1000 men. This means one
chaplain for each $50 or for each
500 men.
The United States Army esti-
mates that it has one chaplain for
every 1000 men at present. France
has one for every 5000, Belgium
one for each 1,50O, and England one

Archbishop of Milan, as 'hetero-

Cardinal said that despite his warn

Father Gribbon Arrives
From Far East; Spiritual
Adviser To 100 Airmen

The 100 Catholic airmen at
Lockbourne Air Base have a new
chaplain. He is the Rev. James
Gribbon, a captain in the Air
Force, who has been in uniform
for the past three and a half years,
most of it in foreign service, in
Guiding Japan and the war zone in
Korea.
Father Gribbon succeeds the
Rev. David G. Dennis, assistant ed,
itor of the Catholic Times, who
served as interim chaplain at Lock
bourne since the Rev. Frank Elmer
was assigned to the Far East.
A native of New York City, Fa-
ther Gribbon was educated at Ca,
thedral College in that city, and at
st. Joseph's Seminary in nearby
Yonkers. He was ordained in 1912
at st. Patrick's Cathedral, New
York, by His Eminence, Francis
Cardinal Spellman.
Following an assignment as as
sistant pastor in st. Angela Merici
Parish and st. Peters Parish in
New York City, Father Gribbon en-
tered the service. He was sent to
Offutt Air Base, Omaha, Neb., as
chaplain in October, 1948 and
thence to Japan in September,
1850. He was chaplain at Itazuke
Air Base, which was closest to the
Korean fighting lines when hostili'
ties started in June, 1850.

Mass Leagues
Condemned By
Bishop Ready
Scores Commercialization
OF The Holy Sacrifice;
Lays Down Three Norms

In letter sent to the priests of
the Diocese last week, Bishop
Ready condemned the current
abuses which have sprung up in
the country during recent years
regarding the solicitation of funds
by certain groups with the promise
of remembrances in great num-
Der of Masses.
Outlining the nature of such
appeals, the Bishop said that
groups of Religious and Religious
Institutions have set up so-called
Mass Associations, Mass Leagues,
Purgatorial Societies, in which they
propose to enroll individuals and
family groups on the payment of a
fixed monetary contribution, rang
ing from five to twenty-five dollars
for individuals, and up to one hun
dred dollars for family groups, and
promise daily and perpetual re-
membranes in a large number of
Masses"
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1952-06-27

Such obvious commercialiZation
of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
is shocking violation of the spirit
of Church law, the Bishop contin-
ued, noting that "for a given sum,
not books, magazines or patent
medicines are efoffered, but the spir.
ituaI benefits of the Holy Sacrifice
of the Mass"
The advertising programs used
by the various bodies engaged in
these particular solicitations of
funds is of a shocking and highly
offensive nature. 1t is the practice
of these organizations to play upon
the sensibilities of those who have
lately lost a member of their fam
lily and exploit their very natural
grief.
1t is the inhuman practice OF
these organizations to imply or in
sinuate that the "bereaved will be
falling in the remembrance of their
deceased, if they do not make a
contribution for the enrolment OF
the deceased in some such Associ-
ation," it was pointed out.
In consequence of these fragrant

"Work Veil"
'If the Catholic Press does its
work well, we can look forward to
the brightest period of Christian
civilization in the history of the
world" Cardinal Stritch declared.
Emphasizing that the Catholic
press must be ''up to date" Cardi-
nal Stritch added, with all the
constructive forces of Catholic
truth it must live in its own age
and it must seek to integrate and
harmonic and make Ineligible
our age in the light of Catholic
truth. With the church, its main
concern will be the winning of
souls for Christ"
Pointing out that part of the
work must be based on the social
life and institutions, the Cardinal
said, ''it is not only concerned with
exposing the futility of systems
which have brought about the Ca
tastrophes of our times, but also ID
works and labors to give men that
force which will enable them to
repair the rents in their social
fabric and to make it more re-
splendent than it has ever been in
the past"

with God and His grace.
"This is contrary to the Divine
arrangement and the Gospel. In
the present order one cannot ar
rive at the Father, except through
Christ. No one reaches Christ, ex-
cept through His Church"
Moral Re-Armament is danger
Gus for, non-Catholics," the Cardi.
nal added: ut offers them a re-
ligious form which is cut in half
and subjective, a morality without
dogmas, without a principle of au-
thority, without a supremely re-
vealed faith, sheep without a shep-
herd and outside the legitimate
sheepfold of Christ. In word, it
offers righteousness which is arbi-
trary and therefore laden with err
rors.
Danger For Catholics
1.-THE movement is particularly
dangerous for Catholics because
Jesus Christ sent His Spirit, the
Paraclete, upon His Church 'to
teach it all truth But the members
of Moral Re-Armament seek it in
stead at Caux Moral Re-Armament
general headquarters in Switzer.
land where they find subjective
pietism of the authentic Protestant
stamp"
Cardinal Schuster quoted Dante
to offer guidance to Christians who
"desire an authentic re-armament
based on Catholic dogma and not
subjective sentiment" He said:
"You have the Old and New Testa,
ment and the shepherd of the
Church who guides you. Let this
be enough for you and your saliva
