In-law problem S are
quite understandable! Can
anyone be dazed with Joy
after a ruthless demotion
or a compulsory abdica-
ton? That is about what hap
pens after some marriages.
Nom suddenly gives place to
another woman in the life of
her son. Dad watches his daugh-
ter in absorbed alteration look
at some male who happens to
have youth, strength, good
looks and all of life before him.
Indeed the old debate is &C
tually no debate at all; the one
that asks, "On a sinking ship,
which should a son save, his
mother or his wife?" OF course,
a son with the choice of say
ing only one would have to save
his wife. That decision is at
least implicit in the Book Of
Genesis: g. Wherefore a man
shall leave father and mother
and shall cleave to his wife ..."
THE REMAINING PROBLEM
Methinks this might well be
the first question that God will
ask a married man as he APP
pears for judgment after death:
Were you a good husband?"
This does not mean, however,
that a married man must de-
sert his parents. No girl can
expect her husband, because of
his love for her, to poison his
father and mother even If the
law encouraged that sort Of be-
havior.
There must always be . deep
lasting affection for parents. To

Asked "where do you think
the next uprising will take
place." DR.. Poremsky did not
answer that, but said:

AS regards Italy, should the
communists and their leftist
allies ever obtain an absolute
majority, this nation would be-
come a peoples democracy"
governed and controlled by the
communists. All freedoms would
disappear one by one, but the
first to go would be religious
freedom.
Wherever strong maferislistie
and afheistie parties exist, it is
clear that Catholics are duty
bound to resist the threat.
When such parties carry out
their efforts within the frame
work of a democratic parlia-
mentary system and aim at a
conquest of power through the
exercise of the right to vote,
defense can only be prepared
within the same system and it
must be united.
1t was, in fact, the unity of
Catholics in backing the Chris
tan Democrats that preserved
freedom and democracy in Italy
after the war, when the small
center parties had not yet ac-
quired appreciable strength
and the extreme right, compro-
missed by cooperation with fas-
cism in a not too distant past,
did not inspire confidence.
Some look on the party that
derives from this necessary po-
litical unity of Catholics in
Italy as a possible danger to
the Church. This danger is not
imaginary, inasmuch as the ex-
istence of a party of Catholics
is used by the Church's enc
mics as a propaganda device to
accuse her of meddling in poll
ties. But the danger is not real
either, because a party of Cath
olics cannot be confused with

youthful marriages, then femi-

WASHINGTON-Cong-
reSS has been warned by
one of its committees that
a drive is about to be
made to cripple its anti
subversive program.
Members of the House and
Senate have been told that they,
and officials in the administra-
tive branch of the government,
will be subjected to a "bar-
rage of letters and petitions"
The House Committee on I'm
American Activities, which is
sued the warning, said it will be
one target of the drive. and
that an effort will be made to
discredit the Federal Bureau of
Investigation and its director. j.
Edgar Hoover.
While the program will be
carried on by front" groups, it
"dovetails" with "a vast pro-
gram" of the Communist party,
the committee said.
Close upon this warning, the

committee made public the fes-

had heard. including Or. vIad-

the Church has pronounced on
ly the guiding principles. In ap-
plying these principles in the
political arena, the party acts
on its own.
Proof of this is found in the
internal differences within the
Christian Democratic party.
This condition could not exist
if Church authorities were in a
position to impose a unani-
nous line of action.
There are many drawbacks to
a party of Catholics and the
dangers it represents are not
light. But if there had not been
unity among Catholics in Ital-
ian politics, communism would
have been in power in Italy
for the past 10 years.
The encyclical "Immortale
Del" (The Christian Constitu-
ton of States) of 1885 says that
Catholics are free to have diff
ferent opinions about the best
way to rule society provided
they do not adopt a position
contrary to their religious prin-
ciples. But the same document
adds:
Gin the struggle currently
fought for things of the great
est Importance. it is absolutely
necessary that internal dissen-
sions and party wars be quoted.
And, with the same intention
and in the same spirit, all Cath
olics) should direct their forces
toward the common aim, which,
is to preserve the safety of the
great religious and social in
terests."
Five years later another en-
cyclical, "Sapientiae Christian
ae" (The Chief Duties of Chris
tian C~itizens), warned that "if
religious interests are in some
way threatended by hostile ac-
Invites, they (Catholics) must
abstain from every dissension
and enter with unity of spirit
and intention into the defense
of religion, which is the greater
and the common good, to which
all others must be subordin-
ated ..."
This is what Italian Catholics
did in 1948 and 1858, and this
is what it is believed they will
do in the spring of 1858.

The recent 30th Annual
Conference of the Catholic
Association for lnterna-
tional Peace served to
highlight h important
work, which this small but ar
ticulate and influential organi-
cation performs as 1t strives TO
make Christian principles CT
fectiyc in the field of inter
national relations.
The conference, eentered on
the theme of Current Gains in
Latin America" was held in
Washington early in Novem-
Der and drew a group OF about
1875 CAIP members, as well as
observers from the Pan Ameri-
can Union, several Latin Amer
lean embassies, agencies OF the
us. government, and other ma
tional organizations.
Compared TO the attendance
~ n~stionai meetings Of other
sssocistions engaged In similar
work, the number OF delesstss
Of the cAlP meeting may seem
vnimprsssive. However, a.
cAiP president Harry w. Fisr-
merry pointed out during the
business session OF the confer
snee, few organizations have
such . large PERCENTAGE Of
their members AZ their eonven-
fions.
The total m e IN b r ship of
CAIP Is slightly more than
500, and In view of this modest
number, a conference attend
ance of 125 borders on the phe-
nomenal. II is certainly a trib-
ute to the high degree of per-
sonal responsibility and active
interest which are outstanding
qualities of the Associations
members.

The Yardstick
Peace Group Needs More
Members On Local Level
By Msgr. George G. Higgins

working in the field of inter-
national peace, CAIP does not
have any endowment or foun-
dation support.
At the same time, the nsees-
sity for more frequent pamph-
let studies and policy state
ments has become increasingly
acute. Both within and outside
the Church. more and more
people are anxious to know the
teachings Of the Church con-
corning the relations between
nations and peoples.
CAIP members have indicat-
ed that they would like to see
the organization sponsor more
frequent regional meetings in
some of the larger cities, SO
that members and other inter-
ested persons, who cannot
make the long trip to Washing
ton for the annual conference,
may have an opportunity for
discussion and special study on
current world developments.
Here again, the need for OPP
Grating expenses and the de-
STABILITY of setting up a fund
for speakers, are important
considerations.

at the recent conference thar
the organizations m m bers
were neither dishesrtened nor

problems. Rather they were full
Of practical. sensible svsges-
lions aimed at svrmovnfing the
