As il is, with the baekdrop of
peaceful coexistence" accept
ance, this resolution may turn
out to be something quite differ
ent. BY getting US involved in
the machinery of the United Ma
tions, ii may prove to be a new
marker on the road to American
retreat in the Pacific.
Cynical Question
The Communists understand
this well enough. They had de
liberately planned their little
shooting in the Tachen Islands
in order to frighten us into me
gotiations" with the Chinese
Reds. The NelU Times of Moscow,
in its issue of January 8, reveals
this information to the comrades
of the world in its leading direc-
tive article. There il complains
that Washington reacts eoldly
to the suggestion of negotiations
on Far Eastern problems. !" And
it adds significantly is that not
because the Geneva conference
has shown that such negotiations
may be productive of useful re-
suits in fnrthering the cause of
peace2n
There could scarcely be a
question more cynical than that,
nor more enlightening TO the
Stalinists. The Geneva confer

ence was one of the most degrad-
ing of the long series of appease-
ment surrenders made by the
Western World to Soviet Power,
and led not TO peace bat 10 er'
panded Dnrfare IN Asia. But Ge-
neva was brought about by a
combination of shooting and the
penetration Of Western agencies
of opinion-making by Soviet
psychological warfare. The mod
ell chosen was an obvious indiea-
tion to the comrades Of the meth
cd to be used in connection with
FormoSa.
Two Conclusions Drawn
II must be remembered that
this Neiu Times, in its issue OF
December IL, had applauded Red
China in its declaration that "the
United States government must
withdraw all armed forces from
Taiwan, the Penghu Islands, and
Taiwan Strait" To that applause
it had added the telling COM
ment: THE Soviet people fully
share and warmly support the
just demand of the great Chinese
people. The unlawful foreign oc-
cupation of Taiwan must be
brought to an end"
To anyone gifted with the
smallest acquaintance with the
art of thinking, two conclusions
can be drawn at once from these
declarations. The one is that the
same pattern is being folloioed
bn the Communists In Asia IN
connection tuth FormoSa, that
lpdS applied to defeat us IN
Kofea and Indo-chind. The other
is that the master of the Asiatic
Communists, the initiator and
source of all their efforts, IS
is the Soviet dictatorship in Mos
colU.
We can have no hope that any
of our acts will be fully effec-
tive in the international arena
until We recognize this state Of
affairs, and end all relations with
Soviet Russia and its satellites,

WASHIFGT0N-The S4th Con
gress has been urged to pay
more attention TO Latin Amer
lea.
AT the same time, qualified
observers returning TO this eoun-
try from visits to Central and
South America agree with this
suggestion. and say it would be
a good policy for Americans
generally to follow.
The recommendation to the
legislators was made by sub
committee which functioned in
the last Congress. The group
found so mich work to do, in
its investigation of communist
aggression in Latin America, that
it has urged that a similar group
be appointed by the present
Congress.
The group was subcommittee
of a select committee headed
by Charles ]. Kersten. who rep
resented the 5th District of Wis
consin in the 83rd Congress. 1t
said il had found communist
propagandists extremely active
here in our own hemisphere. II
declared that while we have
focused our attention on devel-
opments in Europe, and the Mid
die East, thousands of miles
away, the Kremlin has been max
ing progress right next door 10

We arc in the midst of Catholic Bible Week
that begins each year on Septuagesima Sunday.
There are many things that should be said about
this hottest Of writings IN which God speaks 10 us
and most of these being said in sermons, study
clubs and in the press This leaves for TO discuss
Of the most practical applications How 10 begin
the use of the Bible in the family. II is mistake TO
wait for the children to learn about it in school To
begin with that merely builds mp the ehds notion
Of home as filling station for his material needs
II is better for parents TO start the telling Of Bible
stories, based on The words of Scripture itself but
retod IN simpler words There is no reason for
giving the small child strict diet Of fairy tales
they for play times. For prayer times and other
more solemn times the exquisite story material Of
the creation, OF Noah, and above ALL the life of
Christ are the matchless possibilities. Even in the
childs second and third year this can be done
effectively
OF course this may require a little preparation
on the part 'of parents but ether research will
pay such dividends Nowadays too there is a large
number Of fine juvenile books these subjects
that parents can use and that children enjoy. In
fact these beautifully illustrated c0lored and even
animated books of Catholic and especially biblical
material are among the finest developments Of
the Catholic press in recent years.

WASHfNCTON LETTER
Don't Forget South America

a great deal more information
about Latin America, they say.
For one thing, it is pointed out,
communism has not been Danish
ed from Central and South Amer
lea. In some places it is vigorous
and increasing its influence. In
some places, through the very
great efforts of the people OF the
countries themselves, it has been
dealt heavy blows. But even
where communism has been put
on the defensive, it is still a
threat.
For people and organizations
in the United States to sound
off" in an uninformed manner
about this or that Latin Amer
lean country, not knowing the
difficulties and struggles our
real friends in those countries
still have, only plays into the
hands of the Red aggressorS.
While we are trying to learn
more of the real truth about our
neighbors to the south, authori-
ties on those areas say we could
do nothing better than to aid hon.
estly in the development of their
resources. This would help the
true friends of democracy to
give their people Setter life.
IT would help them and us in
the struggle against communist
aggression.

Confraternity edition Of the Old
Testament points out regarding
Babel Genesis 1i:l.9). The story
cannot mean that this was the
only cause of the diversity of
languages. Rather il shows Gods
supremacy over man and the fu-
tility Of human attempts TO cre-
ate and maintain unity by ma
terial means alone, without God"
In like manner "the author Of
Genesis had in mind" the COM
mentary continues, referring to
the flood Genesis 9.19), mot the
entire earth, but only that part
inhabited by peoples related to
the descendants of the patri-
archs."
@. Is 1t permissible for any
couple to use rhythm system or
is this only for special cases!
Would lof0 income for period
of time be an acceptable reason!
A. For spiritual advice or di-
rection in particular instances
Cath Ollie should consult the
priest in confession and follow
his instructions. In general,
however, it should be stated that
many Catholics are in error in
the belief that the rhythm sys-
tenn is recommended" by the
Catholic Church. 1t is permitted,
it is accepted as solution that
is not immoral, but it should
not be used for anything but =
proportionate reason. The
reasons most generally advanced
are those regarding health and
financial difficulties This should
not mean mere inconvenience
but serious hardship. Again
it is matter for personal con-
sultation in individual instances.
@. When did the present Ro-
man collar come into use IN the
Church?
A. The Roman collar0, known
now as the rabbi, A loose breast
piece of cloth material with a
rigid circular collar of the same
material, was used from the
early days of the Church. In
the seventh century the custom
arose of wearing over this rigid
circle a changeable band of
white linen. This narrow band
of white linen used to protect
the collaro became the stiff
collar which is now called the
Roman collar.

ions ought to be drastlcally cur
tailed.
We gave it as our opinion that
this would be an ineffective, not
to say a dangerous, remedy for
the real or alleged evils which
Miss Thompson claims to have
found in the labor movement. In
effective, because it would only
serve to make union officials
less responsible than they are al
legged to be at the present time;
dangerous, because it would give
entirely too much power to the
government in the field of labor
relations.
Organisations Final Objective
II seems to us that the very
opposite formula-namely widen
ing and extending the scope of
union functions and the scope
of collective bargaining - is the
best, if not the only means OF
encouraging the growth of re-
sponsible unioniSm and OF eStab-
fishing a more perfect system OF
industrial democracy under a
system of private enterprise.
Organization is not an end in
itself. It's final objective is the
common good of society. AS a
means to this end, it is almost
as natural to man as breathing
and almost as necessary for his
temporal welfare. This principle
is as basic and as elementary as
the abc's, but we are sometimes
inclined to overlook it in the
restless confusion Of our daily
round of work. We sometimes
find it difficult to see the forest
for the trees. We sometimes for
get that unions - and similar
associations of farmers, employ
ers and professional people-are
the natural means through h
which, and through which alone,
we can successfully cooperate
with our fellow men for the good
of economic society as a whole.
Our economic organizations, in
other words, are not establish
ed exclusively for the defense
or the protection of our own
particular interests or our own
particular rights. although obvi-
ously this is one of their purpos-
es and a very important one at
that. But they are intended pri-
marily as a means through which
we are enabled to cooperate with
the other organized elements in
the economy, to bring about a
happier and a more truly human
life for all our people.
Widen. Rather Than curfail
This leads to the conclusion
that the traditional concept Of
collective bargaining as We have
come to know it in the United
States-which is a good thing

Inquiry Corner
Father Hedley

Q. What is meant By The Con
oreadtions Of the Catholic
Church?
A. There are various groups
of churehmen, generally with a
cardinal as Secretary, who assist
the Holy Father in his office as
Head of the Church. These vari-
Gus bodies make up the Roman
Curia which consists of twelve
Congregations, which might be
compared to the various depart
ments making up the Presidents
cabinet in the United States. The
twelve Congregations are: the
Holy Office, Consistorial Congre-
cation, for the Oriental Church.
for the Sacraments, of the Coun-
Gil of Religious, for the Propa-
CATION of the Faith, of Rites, of
Ceremonies, of Extraordinary Ec-
clesiastical Affairs, of Seminaries
and Universities and of the Ba-
silica of st. Peter
Q. What is the anslDer to the
freedom of speech" argument
t0hen applied to such things as
the anti-ChriStian radio speaker
IN Britain?
A. AS reported in the Catholic
Times of January 18th, the talks
of Mrs. Margaret Knight repre-
sent the typical propaganda of
the militant atheist. The Cath
olic Church approves of and de-
Sires freedom for everyone. 1t is
for that reason that she dis
approves of the intrusion of in
decent or irreligious programs
presented in places (radio, NOV
les, magazine racks, TV, etc.
where the innocent can be un-
duly influenced. Without deny
ing the individual the right to
any opinion, no matter how con-
fused or wrong, the Church
would teach that God does exist
and it is not possible for per-
son or an institution or a country
which accepts His existence and
asks His help to allow propa-
ganda for atheism through un-
restricted channels. "He that is
not with me is against me-" cer-
tainly applies here. luke 1929
Q. Was the whole human race
represented at the time of the
confusion of tongues at Babel?
The flood at the time of Noe?
A. Probably not. There are
many things that would account
for the difference in languages,
and scientists have observed
many of them in the history of
various people, especially in the
science of linguistics. AS the

Same Farce

That there is grave danger OF
our being inveigled into new
appeasement is registered in the
Daily Worker. On January 26, II
denounces Mr.. Eisenhower's re-
quest of Congress as a war
threat" On January %, its lead
ing editorial quotes with approx
al the absurd charges by Sena-
tors Morse and Flanders that the
Eisenhower request is a move for
preventive war" But it is obvi-
Gus that the Communists are us
ing these cries in order to stam-
pede us into granting the de-
mand which ends every one of
their editorials and other direc-
tives: Peaceful 'negotia [ ons
with Chinal"
Engraved Invitation
From a strange quarter comes
acknowledgement on January 30
that the entire history of the past
two years has been a record of
appeasement of Soviet aggreS-
sion in Asia. None other than
Joseph Alsop, in his syndicated
column, writes as follows: There
was first Munich in the form
of the Korean truce. There was
a second Munich in the form of
surrender of Indo-China. There
was a transparent fake in the
form of the toothless Manila
treaty. And in the treaty with
Chang Kai.shek, specifically ex-
Guiding the offshore islands from
American protection, there was
the equivalent of an engraved in
yitation to the Communists to
seize those islands"
To prevent further appease-
ment, we can insist that the Unit
ed States stand firm on FormoSa
and make its world position clear
by severing relations with the
instigator Of all the Communist
mischief, the Kremlin itself. I'm
less and until this is done, our
path is almost bound to be one
of retreat.
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1955-02-11

Recommending continuance of
its study, the group urged "that
we re-examine the distribution
of huge amounts of money that
this government is appropriating
to assist other countries in their
fight against communist aggres-
sion" 1t said a relatively small
amount wisely spent to assist de-
yelopment programs in Latin
American countries would give
great encouragement to the peo-
pie Of those countries and
strike a strong blow at the
communist conspiracy.
Americans returning from
Latin America say our people
generally, and important organ
izations in particular, ought to
try to understand better the
problems of our neighbors TO the
south. BY leaping into print with
unfounded stories, i'll advised
statements and hasty resolutions,
individuals and groups in this
country frequently aid the aims
of communism in Latin America.
We have had in this country,
returning observers tell us, much
publieized speeches and state
ments deploring conditions in
Latin America which simply do
not exist, at least not in the ma
ture that the "resoluters' seem
to think they do. We could stand

great"
If schools in general and public schools in
particular are the be all and end ALI of education
-ss the monograph seems to imply" Monsignor
Rezou continued they must be ready to accept the
blame for the failures of people as we'll the
praise for the greatness Of nation"
The Monsignor noted that Americans are today
alarmed over broken homes, juvenile delinquency
and number Of other sad conditions No student
Of American culture, he said would want to place
all the blame for these and other unfavorables con
ditions on American education alone. But, then.
no one should be so naive as to attribute all that
we experience of the good life to public education
alone as promoted by the state schools"
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1955-02-11

and a necessary thing as tar as
it goes ~ is no longer sufficient.
We will have to broaden our
horizon and strive, il only by de-
grees, for the establishment of
a fully-developed system of la
bor-management cooperation. In
such system labor will be ae-
cepted, within reasonable limits,
as a partner with management
in comparatively directing our
system of private enterprise to-
wards the common good or the
general welfare of all our peo-
pie. This means that we will have
to widen rather than curtail the
function of unions.
There is admittedly certain
element of danger in expanding
the area or the scope Of labor
management cooperation, as Alb
raham Raskin of the Nelo York
Times pointed out in a charac-
teriStically objective article, I'M
ions and the Public Interest, in a
recent issue of the scholarly
Jewish monthly, Commentary.
MIR. Raskin has performed use-
full public service in calling at
tention to "the OminouS POSSIBLE
ity that our great power aggrega-
tions of labor and industry are
moving in the direction of col
luSive arrangements, based on
the theory that they exist TO
make the most advantageous bus
mess deals for themselves, re-
gardless of the effects of such
deals on the consumer"
Cooperative, Not coIlUsive
Nevertheless, as Mr.. Raskin
says in concluding his very
thoughtful article, somewhere,
somehow, someone is going to
have to make a start toward
building affirmative membership
support for relationships that are
cooperative without being col
lusive. That is the road to
fruitful, free economy in which
the benefits of rising productive
ty are applied to higher stand
ards for consumers, workers, and
employers alike" The alterna-
tive, according TO Mr.. Raskin,
may be an economy in which
the government makes all the
decisions. In that kind of econo-
my, all OF us together stand to
lose our freedom" "
We ourselves are confident
that the United States can avoid
the dangers of irresponsible
labor-management collusion on
the one hand, and the opposite
danger of Statism on the other.
Legitimate Function of
Government
Obviously there will have to be
a necessary minimum of govern
ment assistance and government
cooperation and even govern
ment guidance, and necessary
minimum Of social welfare legis-
lation. We do not mean for A
moment to underestimate the
legitimate function of govern
ment in the reconstruction of the
social order. At the same time,
however, it should be emphasiz-
ed that government must never
be permitted to dominate or con
troll the democratic deliberations
of free men cooperating for the
common good in and through
their freely-established organiza,
tions.
Fascism is moi the alternative
to excessive individuaHsm.
