We have commented editorally in previous
edition Of this paper September II, 1854 on the
desperate need for money TO be provided by the

feel that there is no project more worthy of the

that Russia's much publicized
move TO pull its troops out of
Port Arthur was undertaken be-
cause Russia feels that Red
China can carry on as its puppet.
Some say the Russians feel that,
rather than risk pushing Red
China a little too far at this
time, some sort of concession
should be made TO it by Moscow,
and probably this is it. At the
same time, Russia stands to gain
heavy propaganda advantage
by pointing an accusing finger at
American troops remaining in
Japan and Korea. AS a matter
Of fact, it makes propaganda ma
terlal that can be used in a great
expanse of Asia.
Mos Scow'S suggestion, also
much publiciZed, about free, all
German elections is believed by
many here to be another of the
Kremlin's desperate moves to
head off rearmament of West
Germany. OF course, there will
have to be a proposal for a four
power talk to settle the question
of this free election. Moscow can
be counted upon to drain this
proposal of all its propaganda
possibilities. If we decline to
take part in the talks, Moscow
will put all the blame on us for
the failure to reunite Germany.

Q. Why is the Ave Maria" not
considered proper church MT
SIC?
A. There are many melodies
for the Ave Maria and some of
them are acceptable. The Offer
tory verse of some Masses of
Our Lady contains at least the
first part of the Hail Mary. The
popular songs of that name are
not permitted in liturgical wor-
ship because they we're written
for concerts and entertainment
rather than for prayer. The solo
in song, and the popular Ave
Maria" is usually a solo, is not
in keeping with the choral ma
ture of most approved Church
music. As the Appendix of
Church Music Regulations for
the Columbus Diocese Fifth
Synod points out: "Church mu-
sic for the most part is choral
in character. Solo singing, ex-
cept that referred to in the
Moto Proprio, is strictly forbid

A. The most evident text is

from sins" (See also Wisdom

/ Corinthians 3:11-15 The doc
trine of Purgatory Catholics sc-
cept on the authority of the
Church, which draws upon the
whole Bible for the belief that
the Communion of Saints "a
point in the Apostles Creed
means that the faithful living
and dead can help each other.
As st. James says in his Epistle
(5:16): "Pray for one another
that you may be saved. For the
unceasing prayer of a just man
is of great avail" The doctrine
was defended by st. Augustine
(City of Cod, st. Jerome, st.
Ambrose and by the unanimous

These very examples, brought
forward by the Reds, make cer-
tain once again that the Krem-
Inns talk of easing internation-

for continued aggreSsions.

that goes with this attitude, the

NV Il.
In recent months there has
been considerable discussion of
moral implications of ''right-to-
work" laws. Catholic authorities
in the archdioceses of New Or
leans and st. Louis have taken
strong stands against proposed
bills before state legislatures.
In New Orleans considerable
controversy was aroused, with
Catholic principles on labor I'M
ionism the subject of newspaper
debate. Similar bills will come
before the legislatures of other
states, so the subject deserves
study everywhere.
The facts of the case may be
stated simply. In state after state,
bills are being proposed for the
purpose of regulating the activ-
tiles of labor unions. Two types
are common: the right-to-work
bill, and the anti-violence bill.
One would outlaw any form of
compulsory unionism; the other
would curb violence in labor dis
putes and similar conflicts.
Surface Indications Deceptive
1t is easy to see why the stat
ed purposes of these bills would
arouse widespread public sup
port. Americans do not like the
idea of compulsion. Nor do they
favor violence as a means of set
Ting disputes. AS a result, it has
not been difficult to get such
bills enacted into law II. many
Southern states. The only effect
i've opposition has come from
union and Catholic sources,
neither of which is powerful in
most of the South.
Why have Church authorities
opposed bills which, on the sur
face, seem to be so consonant
with general American attitudes?
Obviously because in these, cas-
es the surface indications are
deceptive. These proposals are
not really designed to protect the
right TO work; rather they are
aimed at neutralizing labor's
right to organize. Catholics hold
that mans right to form free as
sociations, for legitimate ends, is
a natural right Which no govern
ment may take away. A govern
ment which effectively denies
labor's right to organize could
just as readily deny the right OF
peaceful assembly or of free re-
ligious worship.
No. state may legally act di-
rectly against labor's right to or
ganize, since federal law in this
case is controlling. The National
Labor Relations Act, reaffirmed
by the Labor Management Rela-
tions Act, protects this right in
areas under federal jurisdiction.
In practice, this means areas with
substantial impact upon inter
state commerce. But the law does
permit states to adopt more Sc
we're regulations Of unions than

demned nor forced in their con-
science. The Church has accept
ed control of propaganda in fav-
or of heresy where the country
is predominantly Catholic. Such
action is not an action of the
Church, but of individual Catho-
lie leaders, who are subject TO
the usual weaknesses OF human
nature. The Church will NOT
tolerate interference with the
conscience of any man.
Q. Is 1T a terrible sin TO hate
someone? mean, iohen you just
don't like him and there doesn't
seem to be anything you can do
about IL?
A. On the first point ii would
be necessary to know what is
meant by hatred. If it means true
hatred. malicious ill-will direct
ed toward anyone, it is a very
great sin. Often by hatred we
mean a kind of natural aversion
to someone without any wish or
action directed against their well
fare. Christians should strive to
overcome such feelings, but low
ing your neighbor does not mean
having the same affection to-
ward everyone. We must love
everyone at least to the extent
that we exclude no one from
our good wishes, especially for
salvation. There have been clash
eS of temperament even among
the saints as we notice in the
Acts of the Apostles (Acts 15:39).
@. Are SIS Peter and Paul Pa
irons to anything i.e. any occu-
patton or the like?
A. st. Paul is mentioned as
patron Of ropemakers and is in-
voked against hail and serpent
bite st. Peter is patron Of lock-
smiths and cobblers, and in some
places as patron of harvesters.
Devotion to these great saints
is so near the center Of our re-
ligion that they should be favor
ties with people of all occupa-
tions.
@. What is the difference be-
tween diocese and an arch
diocese?
A. A diocese is an ecclesiastic-
al territory and jurisdiction gov
ernedby a bishop. An srchdio-
cese is similar territory gov
erned by an archbishop. Usual
ly it is metropolitan see. That
means that the archdiocese is
generally the principal diocese
within a province, which is made
up of several dioceses. Ohio, for
example. is province made UP
of five dioceseS and one archdio-
cese, the archdiocese being that
of Cincinnati.

there, in the usual Communist
jargon, that the kremlin's gains
in Indo-China now make possible
a move against Chang Kai-shek.
"The all.important task of the
Chinese people today" the Ne1e
Times declares "is to liberate
Taiwan Formosa) and complete
ly defeat the aggressive designs
of the American imperialists."
And this new aggressive move is
to be made, of course, in the
name of peace"
Chang Kai-shek must be driv-
en- off Form0sa, the argument
runs, because through him "US
aggressive circles are violating
the territorial integrity and SOW
ereignty of the Chinese Peoples
Republic and interfering in its
internal affairs" But they are
doing more than that. "They (the
American imperialists) are also
enhancing the danger of war in
the Far East, aggravating inter
national tension, and thus pre-
venting China and other coun-
tries from enjoying the benefits
of peace"
Foundation for Aggression
We note in these words the
same old theme song by the
Reds which has inveigled the
United States along the dreary
road from Yalta to Geneva. Each
negotiation" with Soviet Rus
sia and its satellites, in turn, was
to bring peace" and each, in
turn. laid the foundation for new
Soviet aggression.
We can be certain that the Chi
nese Communists will not assaiI

obtain in federal law, provided
they do not conflict. The result
is a series of devious devices
aimed in practice to circumvent
labor's right to organize.
Sincerity Under Suspicion
The basic objection of a right
to-work law is that it practically
forces conflict between labor and
management. BY denying the un-
ion effective security in a given
plant, labor is forced TO be per-
petually on the defel sive in rela-
tion to employers. The union it.
self is weakened by having to di-
vert so much in the way Of funds
and energies to the struggle. La
bor-management relations are
poisoned by the suspicion en-
gendered by the situation.
The argument that compulsory
unionism violates workers rights
would come with better grace if
its proponents were workers.
There has been no ascertainable
worker sentiment for this alleg-
ed right. The advocates of labor
freedom" are employer groups.
This fact alone would arouse
suspicion as to the sincerity OF
such legislation.
If the struggle were centered
in the large industrial states,
with powerful unions, one might
possibly believe that abuses by
unions provoked the legislation.
But the fight is centere6 in new
.ly industrialized areas, where
unions are struggling to gain a
foothold. They are striving to
gain better conditions for work
ers in these areas, and also to
protect union workers elsewhere
from Swestshop competition.
The Real Motive
There are many solid argu-
ments in favor of Union secur-
ity, whether it be by a union
shop or other device. In the first
place, when the law required a
ballot of workers before such a
status could be granted, the fav-
orable vote was uniformly over
whelming. The workers obvious
ly like a union shop. Again, the
most extensive study ever made
of ''the causes of industrial
peace" supports the idea of un-
ion security. The National Plan
ming Association study found
such security q prerequisite for
peaceful labor relations.
The right to work is rarely
unconditional; the only question
is whether or not the conditions
are reasonable and III the pub
lie interest. We think that union
security is basically helpful for
workers and employers alike.
The law protects workers against
abuses of this security. Given all
these facts, it seems evident that
the real motive behind this and
similar laws is opposition to un.
ions AZ such.
