Racial Justice
Plea Is Made
BY Cardinal

CHICAGO - (NC) = His
Eminence Samuel c a rdinal
Stritch, Archbishop of Chicago,
declared that the Mystical
Body of Christ is being torn
limb from limb in many neigh
borhoods populated by Catho-
lies who practice racial injus-
tice."
The Cardinal asked some LOO
students attending a one-day race
relations workshop to extend their
arms in justice and charity to all
men.
"lf we are all one in Christ"
he said, then our attitudes TO.
ward others not of our own col.
or, lineage or blood, will be
chrisf.Iike."
Student delegates from IS Cath
Ollie high schools were urged by
the Cardinal to work with "the en-
thusiasm of youth" for the King
dom of Christ. He told them that
in the call to that Kingdom there
can be no distinction as to color or
race"
Alvernia High School was the
scene of the third interracial study
day. sponsored by the Catholic In
terracial Council of Chicago. One
hundred and fifty faculty members
also attended to study with the
students the principles of inter
racial justice and charity and their
applications to practical problems.
Cardinal Stritch told the stu
dents that 'there is work to be
done-that of eradicating racial
prejudice" He said that "eradi-
eating these strange prejudices is
the most difficult work in life and
ii commands the enthusiasm of
youth"

Philosophy,
Science Seen
Closing Gap

ST LOUIS, Mo. - (NC) -
The gap between scientific and
philosophical thought is being
narrowed by the scientists
themselves, a French philos-
opher-scientist said in an inter
view.
Father Dominic Dubarle, O..
P, who participated in the
Conference of Science and HUI
man Responsibility held at Wash
ington University here commented
that although some critics have
accused scientists of making a
breach between scientific and phil
osophical thought, he feels that sci
entistS 'are trying to learn from
other philosophers, historians, the
ologians, and business men what
can be done to arrive at deeper
understanding of man. ?
He urged Catholic thinkers to CO.
operate with the scientists, for
the extension of sciences far
reaching consequences cannot be
left to spontaneous development"
He said this cooperation was
"onIY a beginning" He said a
way must be made TO show sci
entisfs that there is reasonable
way TO enter the realm of faith.
Opposition and arguments are
not the way but instead "mU-
fUaI inferrosative process" could
be conducted. BY this means sci
entists and Catholic philosophers
could look at common concerns
and then later come TO grips
over the Seemingly eontradie-
tory viewpoints"
In this manner, he hoped, man
could hold to a dogmatiL religious
faith without having to cut himself
off from the scientific world.

1T means that the state may

pictures Of remarkable cure here.
Of course, it cannot be called a
miracle officially until a thorough
investigation Of the cure has been
made by the medical and Church
authorities.
The cure was really filmed by ac-
cident. This is how it happened.
Two French movie makers-one
priest, the other well known
producer - had come to LoIrdes
TO make a documentary film of the
site of Our Lady's apparition. The
producer, Georges Rouquier, and
Father Pichard, OP., religious ad-
visor of the French television net
work, took their pic Tres during a
national pilgrimage while the city
was crowded with some $4,000 pill
grims.
After they had almost finished
their work, they heard about a
young girl who had reported her
seemingly miraculous cure to the
doctors. Suffering from brain tu-
NOR, she had been paralyzed in
both of her legs and apparently
had but a short time to live. She
had been carried on stretcher to
the pool in the Grotto where Our
Lady appeared. The girl was low
cred into the water. When she was
taken out, she got off the stretch
er and began to walk.
Hurrying to the Lourdes Medical
Bureau, the two movie men found
IL physicians examining and uues-
tioning the girl. AS the movie cam
eras watched she showed how she
could walk and said how well she
felt.
Several days later, while edit.
ing the shots they had taken
earlier, Father Pichard and M.
Rouquier found that by chance
out of 10000 pilgrims-they had
taken pictures of the same girl
before her cure. still paralyzed
and on her bed in hospital.
The doctors will report in year
on whether her cure is complete
and unexplainable by natural caus-
es. Then Church authorities will
say whether or not the cure is
miracle.

Ike Parties
Question On
Vatican Envoy

WASHINGTON - (NC1 -
President Eisenhower appar-
emily still believes that it
should be left to Congress to
decide whether the United Sta
tes should have an ambassa-
dor to the State of Vatican
City.
This is the conclusion to be
drawn from an exchange at a
recent presidential press con-
ference.
On behalf Of a Rome newspaper,
correspondent asked the Presi-
dent "about your views about ap-
pointing an American Ambassador
to the Vatican"
The President responded that he
had expressed himself so emphati-
cally and so often on that subject
that he thought he would merely
ask the reporter in question to 60
back and see what he had said
about it in the past.
Research has disclosed moth.
ing fhe President has said on
this subject since entering fhe
White House. On June IS, 1852,
as candidate for fhe presiden-
eY, he told a press conference
that he believed Fundamentally
that the United States should
never close itself off from any
advantageous connection any
where" But, he added, when If
came 10 naming an ambassador,
there must be "a union Of under
standing" between the Chief
Executive and Congress. In the
end, he said. il is Congress that
must decide this question.
In October, 1852, also before the
presidential elections, there was
made public letter which Arthur
Vandenberg, Jr., then a member
OF the Eisenhower staff, wrote to
the Rev Walter A. Wilson, pastor
of the Evangelical Mission Church
of East Greenwich, RI, who had
asked the Republican presidential
candidates position on the ques-
ton Of an ambassador to the Vati-
can.
MIR. Vandenberg told the min
lister that General Eisenhower has
never favored the appointment of
an ambassador to the Vatican.
Before considering any such ac-
tion," the letter added, he would
certainly seek the advice of the
whole American people as demon
strated by their representatives in
Congress"
