Q. Why did God make some
people aOhen He knofOs they ara
going to hell?
A. All creation exists because
of the goodness of God. All OF Gre
alton except man and angels
serve God more or less by ne
cessity of their nature. Men and
angels are different in that their
service - and their fulfillment
and happiness-is given freely.
God did not exclude rebellion
and sin because it is a conse-
quence of free choice. Those who
persistently abuse this great gift
of freedom and die in final inn
penitence choose themselves and
their own selfish way rather
than God. They are allowed to
follow the path they have chosen.
The judgment of God which
sends them to hell we might say
endorses their own foolish but
free choice. God wills all men to
be saved and those who are lost
-as He knows of course from all
eternity-are lost by their own
free choice. They do not destroy
the pattern of Gods creation and
they suffer no injustice, so their
final sad state cannot be con-
sidered flaw in Gods grand de-
sign for creation.
Q. As conUert | find it hard
to make an examination of con.
science before confession. I cont
seem to think of anything.
A. Most prayer books have
section with directions and with
questions to help Catholic
make a thorough examination of
conscience. There are booklets
which present . picture Of the
possible sins and imperfections
for our reflection. All of them
deal with the Ten Command
ments, of the Church and the du-
ties of our state IN life. 1t is a
good practice to make a quick
examination of conscience every
night, Then we have an aware
ness of our offenses and do not
have that vague feeling before
confession that we must have
done something but cannot re
member anything specific. Our
prayer to the Holy Spirit before
examination of conscience is inn
portant for helping us discover
the very real faults which we oft
en- overlook when confession be-
comes too much a matter OF
routine.
Q. Is it all right to make Tes-
tit0tion for something BIZ giving
to the Missions?
A. No. Restitution means the
restoring of property unjustly ac-
quired stealing. receiving stolen
goods, etc) and such property
must be returned to the owner.
Only if the owner-or his heirs
cannot be found may the per-
son make restitution by giving to
charity or the Church e.g. the
Missions. After a proportionate
lie. according to the value Of
the property in question: effort
has been made this indirect res
titution would be permitted. A
person may not keep property
unjustIv acquired in any case
it must go TO the lawful owner
or to some poor or pious recip-
lent.

some places, by law. Here the
most frequent victims of cruelty,
insult and coldness, the sufferers
of deep personal misery, are the
"dark-Skinned" - Negroes, most.
ly, and Mexicans, Puerto Ricans
and Indians, to a lesser extent.
Racial Snobbery
In the United States, not social
and economic snobbery, but ra-
cial snobbery seems to be our
most serious Christian failure.
This is the disease that STILES
the fire and warmth of the Holy
Spirit in Christian souls in the
face of even the simplest human
needs. II renders souls impervi-
Gus to Gods grace - both those
who suffer with it, those who
suffer from it.
Racial Snobbery cannot be ex-
planned as something economic,
social or cultural. Basically it is
a spiritual and moral problem.
II can be found in all economic,
social and cultural groups in the
United States. It is found on
Skid Row, on Park Avenue, in
the u. S. Senate, and back of
the yards.
In the face of this American
problem, Father Pierre's solu-
tion for Frances problem offers
us something for inspiration but
not for imitation. Building new
communities, new churches, new
organizations for Americas ra-
cial outcasts will not kill our
spiritual virus.
Barrier TO Love
What we need are open church
es, open hospitals, open neigh
borhoodS, open offices - open to
all human beings in recognition
of what each person is to Christ.
We need to end that particularly
detestable human cruelty which
makes color a barrier to our love.
We need TO end il - each one
OF us-Where we are, in our own
parish, our own community, our
office and, before all of that, in
our own souls.
We need to identity ourselves
with the outcasts in our society.
To join them in some of their
suffering. because some of it will
be meted out to us-as we stop
being raeially preiudiced and as
we end racial segregation.
The heart Of the matter is 10
love God dangerously. Isn't this
what stops all of US?

said. The building, he said, has
only a so per cent use ratio for
its space, as compared with a II
per cent ratio for the new Gen.
Ieral Accounting Office.
Wallace K. Harrison, a men,
ber of the Fine Arts Commits
sion, called the building ian
architectural landmark of the
Capital an excellent example
of pure Greek architecture
and a structurally sound build
ing the useful life of which can
be measured in centuries"
He suggested that if parking
space was so essential that his
toric buildings must be torn
down to provide it, then the
Washington Monument might be
razed to provide even more space.
The Monument and the Civil
Service Commission building
were both designed by Robert
Mills.
The parking problem, he said,
must be solved, but he asked
aren't we strong enough and
rich enough and big enough to
do it without tearing down our
national monuments?"
The building was begun in
1886. it was testified, and con-
structed, wing by wing, over 81
years.
Mr.. Elliott and Mr.. Poorman
said GSA has talked to no pro-
spective purchasers of the lot
as far as they know.

Representative Harrison, DEM

about a congressional worker
who ''knew more tax law than
he did frog law"
James w. Riddell of Arlington,
a staff member of the House
Ways and Means Committee,
headed recently for the Shen-
andoah River in Page County to
do a little fishing.
He had his fishing license but
no hunting license because he
planned no hunting.
That's where he slipped up on
his frog law" of Virginia.
The frog was sitting on the
bank. Mr.. Riddell armed him
self with a rock and let fly. It
was a direct hit.
His triumph was short lived,
however. He soon found himself

Mr.. Riddell hurried to Mr.
Harrison, Virginia's member on
the committee.
Mr.. Harrison, a former cir
cult judge and prosecutor, said
he could sympathize with the tax
expert because he could not re-
call any cases in his own exper-
ience in which a citizen had run
afoul Of Virginia law by rocking
a frog.

.SW Shop Plea
Wins Sympathy
|0fHouseGroup
Action Deferred
On BIoe's Request
For Priority Right

The Davis subcommittee Of the
House District Committee today
turned a sympathetic ear to ths
pleas Of spokesmen for business
establishments in Southwest
Washington for a bill which
would give them first priority for
relocation there when the area
is redeveloped.
Action. however, was deferred
to await a time when there can
be a quorum of the subcommit-
tee.
Spokesman for the committee
said they had full sympathy for
businessmen who would be dis
placed by the redevelopment
plans but that frankly they did
not know what they could do
since the redevelopment was
necessary. They did question
John r. Searles, jr., executive
director of the Redevelopment
Land Agency as to how his
agency proposed to handle the
dispossessed and he said his
agency was ready ITO do all we
can" to help the dispossessed
businesses.
Just what this would amount
to was left a little vague. For
Instance, 1t was brought out that
one OF the pleaders for the pref
l|erence bill, Horace Walker, rep
resenting the Metropolitan Re-
tail Gasoline Dealers Associa-
! ton. said there is a feeling there
, now are too many gasoline sta.
tions in area B in the Southwest
redevelopment area.
Opposition to the bill was
!, voiced by Mr.. Searles for the
Ria and by Irving Bryan, as
Isistant Corporation Counsel,
who represented the District
Commissioners.
| One of numerous witnesses
speaking for the bill introduced
by Chairman Mcmillan of the
House District Committee, was
Mrs. Franklin G. Sartwen, pres
ident of the Southwest Citizens
Association. She said, What
has happened in Southwest to
our residents, homeowners and
business men during the past
flew years of the redevelopment
program has been little short of
disastrous from an economic
standpoint.
1T continues to be a grave
problem as more and more
people are moved out and move
away of their own accord while
authorities consider a multitude
|of plans for the future of this
historic section of the Federal
Icity."
Other witnesses included
Joseph H. Schneider, general
counsel and past president of
