cation M general and Catholic

A Social, Civic. Personal Need
The necessity of informal adj
ult education can be very read
lily and logically founded upon
certain observations and under
lying facts.
Graduates of our liberal arts
colleges and professional and
technical schools are not fully
equipped for social living or sue
cessful living. We have begun TO
realize the inadequacy of formal
education. Workshops. institutes
and reiresher courses in profess
sional fields indicate that learn
ing must be continued in the in-
terest OF the profession and the
professional person. The inte-
grafton of professional educa-
tion with actual life in society
cannot be left TO the trial and
error method, and since it must
inevitably occur, ii can be facil-
itated through informal adult
education. The social growth of
the college graduate or the grad
uate OF the professional schools
must be insured in the interest
OF society at large.
Population Age Shifting
Informal adult educational
programs are essential in view
OF our present and future popula-
iion pictures. Our national age
is an important consideration in
any educational program. Al the
present we are an aging nation,
shifting from a predominantly
juvenile population To one which
will become largely adult Adult

furthermore, the purely mater

limited. Denmark has no land de-
Tense, no natural obstacle to an
invader from sea or land and pre-
clous little industry on which to
base an effective resistance.
No Apparent Fear
There is not the remotest sign
of an atmosphere of fear here.
Last year | noted that Copen.
hagen was probably one of the
European capitals in which
there was less talk about war
and the universal danger. This
year the very slight attention
paid to the problem before seems
to have vanished. Normality is
so total here that it is hard to
Imagine there is anything more
serious on the horizon than the
pantomime at Tivoli Park, the
latest ballet, the changing guards
at Amalieborg or the boat races.
The Danes live extraordinarily
well, as any American visitor
can attest. Abundance rules ev-
erything, from that extraordinary
Institution known as the morqen

down TO the world-famous sand
wiches which have won an al
most equal fame for the nation

In all these Scandinavian
countries the life of the Church
is pretty much concentrated in
the capital or at the best in the
cities. Nevertheless the essential
problem is in the rural area and
small towns. In Denmark there
are about a hundred priests and
a goodly number labor in places
scattered over the land. In the
next article I shall have some
thing to say of the Catholic prob
lem as it appears IN this country.

No Defenses
Denmark strikes one as land
that is trying to forget, as much
as possible. the awkward fact that
the Soviet Union is close and
that her defenses in reality are
not very much better than they
were in 1910 when the HitleriteS
invaded. That is to say, they
have no defenses at all.

INQUIRY CORNER
Likeness of God
Exceeds Our Grasp

@. If God has no body ,0hy
does the Bible refer 10 the "egeS
of God" the face of Cod and
the hand of Cod?
A. God is a pure spirit. He is
perfect and not made up of
physical composed parts, so He
has no body. Expressed in the
Sacred Scripture which refer to
the "eyes of God" etc. are adapt
ed to human understanding. God
is not made in our image and
likeness but exceeds our grasp
as He is infinite. We use many
expressions, however. based on
our experience, which help TO
understand Him. Just as we
might explain complicated in
ternational situation to child
(e.g. war; in terms of his child
ish games and relations to others
the Scriptures use our own terms
TO help lis understanding deep
truths about God. Such represen-
tations are symbolic in a way
somewhat similar to our use of
the flag or standard represent
ing a social group. the scales Of
a balance to symbolic justice or
winged foot to represent speed.
Q. Is there any record in the
NeU Testament of priests being
ordained?
A. There are several instances
of ordination in the New Testa-
ment In the Acts of the Apostles
(13:3) where the apostles conse-
Grated Paul and Barnabas. and in
st. Paul's ordination of Titus
G:5) and Timothy aT Timothy
1:6). st. Paul speaks of the Sc
lection of some for Holy Orders
s (Ephesians ALL; / Corinthians
1920 and the power of the
bishops to choose Il Timothy
5:22) worthy candidates. The
Council of Alexandria expressed
the universal Christian tradition
in making a clear distinction be-
tween bishops and priests, indi-
eating that bishops had power to
ordain priests and priests did
not 1919 ADD
Q. What is simony? Where
does 1t get its nance
A. Simony consists in selling
spiritual things for money or the
equivalent of money. 1t is simony
to sell relics of the saints, to
charge higher price for objects
because they are blessed or-as
sometimes happened in the Mid
die Ages-to offer money fo-
spiritual office To give money
offerings for Masses or for other
spiritual works of the priest for
our benefit is not Simony. iSee
| Corinthians 9:11-14) Generally
speaking it would appear to be
rare sin in the United States,
although expressions like How
much is a Mass" of I'D like To
pay for the Mass" are sometimes
heard. No priest sells Mass or
any spiritual thing, and all the
money in the world could not
buy one Mass. The Mass offering
is simply a traditional way OF
contributing to the priests sup
port. The priest agrees to re
member and apply the special
fruits mot all of them) to the

American farms, if completely re-
covered and preserved, could pro-
duce $6,0O0,O0O,OOO (six billion)

Agriculture. This potential value is
three times that of the nations
present wheat crop.

the First State last year for car

Sen. Butler Thinks
Alaskans Want
No Statehood Now

OMAHA, Neb., R1Sen. Butler
R-Neb) says he thinks he has con-
WINGED ''the rank and file in Alas
ka that statehood should not come
at this time"
"Most of the clamor for state
hood is coming from politicians
who want to run for office" he
declared in an interview Saturday.
The senator and five members
of his committee on interior and
insular affairs spent two weeks in
Alaska conducting hearings on the
Alaska Statehood Bill.
"When we pointed out the OBJ
stacles, most of the people agreed
they should wait awhile" Butler
said.
Statehood would hurt rather
than help Alaska because Of the
tax load its citizens would have to
bear, the senator said. Most of the
land is owned by the federal gov
eminent and "this means there
isn't enough land on the tax rolls
to pay for a state government" he
added.
Sen. Butler said a change will
be made in the statehood bill at
the next session of Congress which
might quiet some of the agitation
for immediate passage. This
change would require Alaskan
banks to join the Federal Reserve
System. This would eliminate the
practice of charging an exchange
fee on checks and "this in turn
would stimulate business" Butler
said.
