@. HoW can some Wedlthy
persons like Merle Oberon
and her husband get around
the hws of the Church con.
corning marriage? What is
considered a valid marriage
outside the Church?
A. The laws of God and His
Church apply equally to all. In
the Oberon case, Miss Oberon,
a non-C Catholic, was married
validity to Alexander Korda,
now deceased. Her second mar
riage" was invalid due to the
fact that the man she attempted
marriage with was validity mar
ried.
Miss Oberon's husband, Bruno
Pagliai, a Catholic, was never
validity married prior to his
marriage to Miss Oberon. His
three previous marriages were
civil ceremonies.
A Catholic can never be val
idly married outside h e.
Church. In the eyes of the
Church, two non Catholics,
who are free to marry from
all other points of view (who
have not already validity con-
tracted a marriage, ct cetera),
can validly be married in a
Protestant Church or before
a Justice of the Peace. OBJ
viously this is concerned only
with the manner is which the
marriage is celebrated, declar-
ing such non-C Catholics to be in

President Eisenhower, as we
previously noted, has made sew
eral plea in recent months that
labor and management exercise
responsibility and self-restraint
with a view to curbing initiation.
The concensus of economies
and editorial writers seems to
be that such well intentioned
pleas are rather unrealistic.
The reasoning behind this
pcssimistic conclusion is sum-
married. by Alfred Kuhn, Asso-
ciate Professor of Economics at
the University of Cincinnati, In
a book which was published
shortly before the President
made his last public appeal on
the question. During infla.
ton" Professor Kuhn writes.
at would be wise II all COM
ponents of the economy could
show restraint, and not raise
prices until they had an urgent
reason for doing so. The trou-
Bile with this precept is that
anyone who uses more than av-
erage restraint inflicts a loss
on himself for somebody else's
benefit, with very little assur-
ance that he will help the econ
omy."
The same writer concludes:
we live in an economy
whose progress and productivity
are built on the philosophy and
practice of the pursuit of self
interest, and We must reconcile
ourselves to the fact that the
pursuit has its undesirable as
we'll as its desirable results"
MASTER WAGE POLICY
The professors point is well
taken. Nevertheless the situa-
ton is not completely hopeless.
One proof of that is the fact
that a Number of economists,
including Professor Kuhn are
beginning to talk seriously
about practical ways in which
labor and management can
jointly tackle the problem of

learn to be better parents have
only half succeeded. And the
school teachers who ask par
ents to help them be better
teachers but do not assist par
ents to be better parents are
unfair.
Now more and more schools
around the country are invit-
ing both fathers and mothers to
spend some time in their chill
dren's classrooms. These teach
ers take the parents through a
typical day in class and give
them a preview of the courses
their children will take. There
must be this constant working
together.
Also, some school teachers
periodically give a report to
parents during a Is minute SEES
sion and In person discuss the
progress of a student. Still 9TH
er teachers insist on seeing the
father when a child needs spe-
cial discipline. The mother and
the student together are usual
ly less effective. These are all
good bridges.
Public schools IN the coun-
try are stated principally by
women. This is almost as true
ir Catholic schools. In the pub
lie schools the average is 1871
to 80% women teachers. There
is an apparent increase of wom-
en- in this profession, because
they are more apt to accept less
pay than men. The father then

A Catholic sociologist who
has been challenging old say
ings has recently studied a
community and indicated that
Catholic children going to a
Catholic school were not con-
sistently, or at all, more virtu-
Gus than Catholic children 60

rightly conclude that parents
make the difference in behav-
ior. II we put a goose egg to

The school works primarily
through the intellect. The
school is prepared to teach
theory and what is speculative.
OF course, 1t attempts to teach
the 'whole" man, but principal
ly through the intellect and
what is truth. Parents on the
other hand guide their children
primarily through the will and
through what is good. They OPP
crate mainly through love, ex-
ample, authority, and the pow
err to motivate. Parents natu-
rally emphasize behavior, char
acter, formation, and action. 1t
is what they are equipped to
do.

through the centuries by the
Hungarian sovereigns, interior
ing in the life of the Catholic
Church shall not be exercised
by the present governmental
agencies.
However, it is necessary to
assure the governmental inter
est in the appointments to the
ecclesiastical posts in order to
exercise sovereignty"
The right of patronage was
granted by the Holy See to the
Hungarian kings, who were al
ways true members of the Rom
an Catholic Church.
The exercise of this right was
possible only after the corona
ton, which was primarily a re-
ligious ceremony. For an athe-
ist government to declare it
will not exercise a right grant
ed only to kings is mere blat-
ancy.
The main provision of this
edict says that prior approval
by the presidium of the Peo-
pies Republic is required for
the appointment of all arch
bishops, bishops and other ma
jor offices which under canon
law are under the jurisdiction
of the Pope. The same rule
shall be applied to acting in
such positions or to transfers
and dismissals from such posts.
The prior approval of the
Minister of Culture is requir-
ed to all Church appointments,
transfers and dismissals in the
towns and county centers - the
Jurisdictions of local bishops
and furthermore, to all posts of
professor and director in all
theological universities, col
leges, academies and high
schools maintained by the
Church.
The conditions for approx
ing appointments under papal
jurisdiction must be provided
by concordat between the State
and Church. Until such a con-
cordat is settled, government
approval may be gained by
agreements between the gov
eminent and the Roman Cath
Ollie Church. The government
will provide in a future decree
the conditions of the minister
ial approval.
These rules must be applied
to the appointments, transfers
and dismissals carried out after
October l, 1856 - before the
beginning of the revolution.
Under the provisions of this
edict, only those church au-
thorities who are acceptable to
the Communist party may con-
tinue in office in the future.
During the revolution of last
October, on orders from His
Eminence Josef Cardinal
Mindszenty, Primate of Hum
gary, those few clergymen who
worked with the communists
were transferred or suspended.
The Hungarian Bishops Con-
ference since then has resisted
the governments pressure to
restore those 80 priests to their
previous positions.
The government, which de-
clared the Cardinal to be a fugi-
tive in the American Legation,
wanted to annul his actions
against those who deserved not
only the contempt of the peo-
pie, but also the excommuni-
cation of the Church.

BY Lsszlo Magyar

Lss1lo Magyar is the pen
name Of a distinguished Hum
sarian attorney and former
member Of the Hungarian Par
lament. He is now a refugee
Hungary's mmunist
government has entered a
new phase in its fight
a 6 ainst the Catholic
Church.
An edict issued by the
presidium of the Hungar-
ian Peoples Republic on
required government approval
for appointments to certain
ecclesiastical posts, the text of
which has only recently become
available, appears to be the
basis for a systematic campaign
against the Church.
Under this campaign, it APP
pears, the price exacted for the
so-called temporary agree
ment' permitting the Church
to function is the alleged de-
claration of the Hungarian
Bishops conferences tying the
Church in with the communist
led peace movement. Whether
the new Catholic peace move
ment-was established by the
Bishops voluntarily or whether
it is even the creation of the
Bishops themselves is anybody's
guess. The Hungarian Bishops
are in no position to deny 1t.
Coupled with this seeming
rapprochement is a Red move
obviously aimed at misleading
the people - permission for
publication of a Catholic news
paper, New Man." Under Janos
Kadar's regime, just as under
the pre-revoluti0nary commun-
list government, every publica-
ton has to be censored before it
goes to press. And it is hard to
believe the communist govern
ment would issue a permit to a
bona fide Catholic paper which
would show the regime up for
what 1t is.
Meanwhile, official circles
have taken care to give great
publicity TO assurances that the
teaching of ethics and morals
is being restored to the schools.
But the communists themselves
have revealed the nature of this
teaching: The Hungarian paper
Nepakarat has asserted that the
new teaching can have no rela-
ton to the "old, disreputable
religious : ethical instruction"
The government has ruled that
these "ethics and morals must
be Marxist.
One further agreement"
has been reported - between
Church officials and the Hun
garian broadcasting office. The
radio system has granted the
Catholic Church 80 minutes on
every fourth Sunday for broad
casting religious programs.
But what has not been an
nounced is whether il will be
censored, who will be the pro-
gram producer, and what re-
strictions will be placed on var
ious Church persons appearing
on the program.
The regimes edict requiring
government approval for per-
sons appointed to Church posts
is itself a typical example of
communist hypocrisy. 1t says:
According to the Constitu-
tion, to assure freedom of con-
science, Church and state shall
be separated. Therefore the

with these SO priests faces ar
rest, and this includes bishops.
Furthermore only those who
cease their fight against the
puppet government and commu-
nism may exercise their relig-
ious and ecclesiastical rights
and jurisdiction.
The government has accom-
panied it's edict with a decree
on religious education. This
contains a very pernicious mat
ter of propaganda, besides the
real ban of the religious in
Struction.
The first part of the decree
declares that to attend or to
omit religious education is ex-
clusively the private affair of
the citizens, and nobody must
be prevented from attending
or staying away. Everybody
shall be punished under the
law, who:
l. Uses religious Instructions
for political purposes against
the political, social, or eco
nomic system Of the Hungarian
Peoples republic.
z. influences by threats or
violence either TO force attend
ance at or absence from relig-
ious classes.
II is remarkable that no
legal sources may be found by
which somebody might be con-
demned for these crimes ex-
cept the first article, because
neither this decree, nor any
other legal statutory order con-
tains any rules which could
be the basis for a legal trial.
So these provisions of the de-
cree are merely bombast, USE
full weapons for communist
propaganda.
The other articles of the de-
cree contain the conditions of
the religious education, which
all may be used to ban the in
structions.
The instructions must be held
before or after the compulsory
school hours in the schools,
but everybody who is familiar
with the situation knows well
that the number of classrooms
is not yet sufficient and in
many schools the children are
taught in three shifts.
Attendance at religion class
es may be decided by the par
ents, but this decision must be
proved at the enrolment, which
is held separately from the or
binary registration. The tricks
and threats of the communists
are all too well known to permit
understanding for what pur-
pose this proof is required. The
special enrolment (undoubted-
ly during the working hours
of the parents), the written
proof of the parents decision,
and the friendly persuasion
of the school directors and en-
ployers are likely to intimldate
the parents, who may wish to
exercise the right permitted by
the "loyal" government.
Finally, only those can teach
who get special permission from
the cultural department of the
local council. Thus, priests may
be allowed to teach only in
villages that sometimes are 20
to 80 miles from home, and if
possible only in places where
transportation is difficult. 1t is
in such ways as this that the
communist authorities "facili-
tate" religious education.
