As Burden on Public

Seven Democrats and one Re-
publican dissented today from q
House committees. formal in
dorsement of q $240-million
postal rate boost, calling it an
.'unconscionable burden
contrary to the public interest"
The minority report from the
25-member Post Office Commit
tee denounced the Eisenhower
administrations bill for higher
mail rates as an added tax" and
a radical departure from the
concept Of public service which is
the keystone Of our postal estab-
lishment."
The committee majority, on
the other hand, urged adoption
Of the rate bill and said there is
need Of additional revenues to
Offset chronic deficits in Post
ONCE operations.
Called Still A Bargain.
The majority commended that
although the cost of mailing
out-of- town letters would go up
from 3 to 4 cents, mail users
would still be getting a bargain
at the higher figure. >
They also defended the pro-
poSal to raise air mail from to
Z cents, declaring it is justified
because Of the preferential and
speedy handling given this class.
The bill, likely to touch of a
bitter fight when it comes before
the House soon, would boost first
class and air mail revenues by
about Sta. million a year, pub
fishers second class mail by SIS
million a year, third class mail
by $50 million a year, transient
second class and controlled cir
culation publications by $685., 900.

sentatives Moss of California,

Oppose LIST Class Raise.
They took particular excep-
ton to the proposal to increase
first-class mail when it is al
ready paying its own way, and
declared:
This is an uncomfortable
burden. in the nature of a tax,
which should not be approved"
The minority also declared
that Congress must decide
whether the post Office is to be
business or a public service.
Each time that Congress has
established a new rate for mail
which is not to pay its full cost
it has clearly shown that the
reason is public service" the mi
nority report said. and con-
tinued:
ITO the extent that the postal
establishment is a public serv-
ice its costs should be charged
to the public treasury, not to any
particular class of mail just to
satisfy an administrative desire
to present financial results in a
more favorable light"
OF the first class increase
recommended by the majority.
the minority said:
by increasing first class non
local rates to cents, this legis-
lation will set us back more than
a century. Not since 1851 have
we had a general rate on regular
first class letters in excess Of 3
cents. .AS a matter of fact. the
selection Of non-local mail for
this rate appears to be opposed
to one Of tho vital national poll
cies which formed a cornerstone
Of the economic and cultural de-
velopment Of our Nation"

Amy thoughtless accusation
against Catholic Charities agencies
regarding the charitableness of the
staff indicates an unfamiliarity
with agency procedures and legal
limitations. for one thing, and an
ignorance of the attitude of the
employees for another. II is one
thing TO rattle on blithely about
the old fashioned, persoralized APP
proach of charity of fifty or even
twenty-five years ago 1t is an
other thing to handle the problems
OF individuals and families today,
without a multiplicity of regula-
tions which govern the methods of
agencies today. For my part. the
charity of the agency today is as
personal as the old-fashioned, so
called, charity.
"A refusal to take children under
care IS frequently an occasion of
the allegation that an institution OF
agency is uncharitable. All of us
here, am sure, appreciate that
a negative decision is often the
charitable decision. The affirma-
tive might very we'll be the most
anchdritable, even though our ac-
cuser might not appreciate this
point.
Il am not saying that Charities
workers, or Directors for that mat
ter, are infallible in their decisions.
But the chances of making a mis-
take are much less in welfare
matters by the agency than they
are by the 'grandstand quarter
back" who would like to change
the rules of the game, which can
not be changed.
I'VE thus come to our second
point, prudence and Catholic
Charities.

Rome Urges
Increase Of
Film Offices

VATICAN CITY-The Holy See
has called for the extension every,
where of national Catholic film of.
fices for the purpose of spreading
a knowledge of the moral values
of films.
The appeal was made in letter
to Able Jean Bernard, president
of the International Catholic Film
Office. The occasion was the three
day executive meeting of the film
office in Cologne.
The letter was written on behalf
of His Holiness Pope Plus XII by
Msgr. Giovanni B. Montini. Vati-
can Pro-Secretary of State 1t point
ed out the effective results Catho-
lie film offices have had where
they have been established and ex-
pressed the hope that they will
not only be established every
where, but that they will be ade-
quately equipped with the means
necessary for their work.
The principal work of these of
fices. the letter said, is both to pre-
serve the faithful from occasions
of sin and to educate them in good
film values. In issuing a moral class
ification of films, Monsignor Mon
TIM declared, the Catholic films
offices must give an objective
judgment on the moral values of
the film. Such a judgment will
gradually tend to sharpen and COM
plete the education of the faith
full so they can make moral deci-
sions concerning films, correspond
ing to their conscientious duty.
The Vatican letter lamented par
ticularly the fact that the educa-
ton of the faitful in films values
had been neglected. 1t stated that
the youth particularly are almost
entirely devoid of any sense of
moral judgment of the films they
see.

past century had found the Domin-
lean Republic dominated by men
opposed to religion. However. it
added, the signing of the new
agreement reflected the fact that
the present rulers of the island
fully recognize the place and the
rights of the Church.
AS proof of this friendly attitude
toward the Church, Osservatore
pointed to the enactment of law
in 1881 and the passage of the
supplementary lie gi station in
1884 which recognized the juri-
dical status of the Church in the
Dominican Republic and establish
ed religious education in the pub
lie schools.

ths men who have guided The

pie in recent years" ths Vatican

Birth Control
Sanctioned At
Lutheran Meet

LOS ANGELES, Calf. - (NC) -
Delegates to the 95th annual synod
of the Augustana Lutheran Church
here adopted a resolution approx.
ing birth control when "practiced
in the spirit of love, of freedom
and of stewardship accountability
to Cod
The delegates represented 500,-
900 members of the church and the
synod was one of the first of Is
Lutheran bodies in this country TO
adopt such resolution. The ac-
tion was taken after the Lutheran
World Federation, in report to
its women's section, said that the
question of birth control was one
in which clear guidance from the
Christian Church was needed ur-
gently.
The resolution contended that
married couples had the right to
plan their relations so that each
child "will be both wanted for il
self and in relation to the time of
its birth" The resolution gave ap-
provaI to birth control methods
that are not intended to make mar
riages childless.
The delegates also voted favor
ably for artificial dissemination
with the husband as the donor for
married couples unable to initiate
pregnancy otherwise, and condemn
ed abortions except "as a medical
method to save a mothers life"

work. Now, we all understand
that persons in trouble want to
have the trouble solved as quickly
as possible. Consequently, many
clients and their interceSsors want
the agency personnel to resolve
difficulties overnight, or, within
the hour. But experience shows
that hasty action especially
where families and children are
involved, does not provide the time
to decide what is right and proper.
There IS no more red tape to be
found in Catholic social service
matter than there is for a, CORES
pondinsly serious matter at the
rectory OF Chancery"
Regarding the need to serve
people in the communities where
they live, Monsignor Walen pointed
out. In recent years, fortunately,
nearly all dioceses with fairly
large communities within their
boundaries have taken the pro-
gressive and effective step of es-
tablishing branch offices. The
Church, after all, brings the priest
and erects a church or a school
where the people are. lnasmuch as
Catholic Charities services are a
phase of religious service it is only
logical to have as a corollary that
Catholic Charities personnel also
be stationed where the people are.
However, as the sacrifice must
be made in behalf of the church
and the schools for the people of
the entire diocese, also branch
offices, wherever feasible, should
be brought to communities where
Catholics can have ready and quick
access 10 social service rendered
by the Church" "
Turning to another important
matter. Monsignor Walen observed,

citizen Hence, Catholics have a
