for their own personal advan-

their way to Oblivion or, pre-

Of turning against the labor

sins of a minority of crooks

We will support corrective
legislation designed to ellmln-

the part of labor officials. But
by the same token we will Wig
orously oppose legislation de.
signed to weaken or to cripple
unions as such, or to punish the
majority of union members

few. In other words. We are not
going to throw the baby out

the popular or the fashionable
thing to do at the present time,
but, in our opinion, it would

Dsmnins With Faint Praise
The attitude OF the Catholic
press on the subject of trade
unionism is solidly based on
Catholic social principles as in
terpreted by the American Bish-
ops in the light of American
conditions. We mention the
Bishops in passing because of
A,C.'S clumsy attempt to play
them off against Catholic social
actionists and Catholic editors
and journalists. '"The HER

points of view"
This is classic example of
damning with faint praise. The
facts are that the Bishops of

their Joint announcements

concept of trade unioniSm and

Why NOT make the "brute"

her handkerchief? Why make
him feel guilty when he is with
you instead of happy?
If you suspect him, don't give
him the slightest hint until you
are sure. Don't go prowlipg for

not with tantrums. Don't get
panicky; it may be just little

@. Is there any available
source OF reference for the In
der OF Forbidden Books?
A. The most important prac-
tieal guide is the Catholic press
which comments on current
books and reprints as well as
classics which may involve NOR
al questions. Too often Catho-
lies think of the question as
mainly that of list whereas
the principle underlying the
list is more permanent and
more important. any book
which is seriously dangerous
to our faith or morals should
be avoided just as we would
avoid poisonous or uninspected

relatively few titles. and most
of them of international inn

Only saints can really fall in
love! For the pure love of
which ] speak Is not natural:
TO always give and never ask is
to surpass nature. Love needs
God.
But deliver me from super
natural love. You have surely
met the type. For them love is
q duty, a Commandment. II is
dry function, an act OF the will.
There is no joy; there is moth
ing felt. Ii is an obligation But
where true Christian love does

jealousy, the childish type,

other type Of "jea.ousy' which
is not childish, which can serve
a good purpose for the emo
tions - much as adrenolln can
sometimes help the body. This
helpful jealousy may prevent
MS from becoming Indifferent;
il may rally us in defense of
precious possessions.
Green Light
Using jealousy, however. as
q weapon is risky and puerile.
II is a general rule that the
one who cares the most is the
one who is most at the mercy
Of the other. II a man does not
love his wife, or does not think
that he Is getting a great deal

does go flirting. AS a weapon,
neutrality-suspicious. is then
ridiculous and useless. Not only
that, 1t gives the other party a

Again il may occur that she
was all wrong in judging him,
and now that she has taken
pose, he has lost all confidence
in her He may never regain it.
Likewise, he may accuse her of
flirting because he himself
wanted to indulge in the same
practice. This type of jealousy
is just no good.
Floating Stimulus
Before marriage some girls
find it a profitable technique
to keep him guessing, but TO
make this approach the basis
of conjugal love is to build mar
Tiage on a floating stimulus.

her own game.

ty's jealousy is evidence of
weakness OF character or a con
fession of failure. Why must a
man always give a qualified
praise about another woman?
Even If a wife remarks how
beautiful another girl is why
must he always say, "Yes, she
is beautiful except for her
nose? The basis of their love,
then, must first be a Christian
one.

these mysteries cannot be mon
otonous.
o. Can noe be sure of SdlUd-
ton If zoe Dedr the Scdpulnr
or make the nine First Fri
days?
A. No. Except for a special
revelation of God to a partic-
ular person there is no cer-
tainty of salvation except dying
in the state of grace-and that
cannot be known with absolute
certainty by the person involv-
cd. A sin of presumption by
feeling that salvation was au-
tomato or guaranteed because
of the scapular or any such
promise would be contrary to
the promise. The scapular
means primarily a dedication
to Mary and presumes devotion
to Our Lord too and reason
able efforts to keep the COM
mandments. With true devo-
ton to Our Lady the remark
able promise does give assur-
ance of salvation beyond that
which we might expect other
wise.
@. What is the explanation
Of the UdriouS robes norm By
the bishop in ceremonies?
A. The buskins and sandals
worn by the bishop come from
ancient Rome. The. pectoral
cross is derived from a cross
worn by the early Christians
as a reminder of the sacrifice
of the martyrs and of the
power of the Cross of Christ.
The dalmatic and tunic (worn
under the chasuble)' are also
derived from Roman dress but
they are the special vestments
of the deacon and subdeacon
and so represent the fulness
of the priesthood vested in the
bishop. The mitre (pointed
hat) has two peaks represent
ing love of God and love of
neighbor. the whole signify
ing the helmet of salvation of
which ST. Paul speaks. Its
present form is late develop
ment but il existed in some
form from the early Christian
times. The crosier is the staff
representing apostolic author
ity. the representative of the
Good Shepherd being the bish-
op, successor to the Apostles.
Q. Is ii true that babies tcho
die unbupti2ed cannot enter
heaven? Is that fair?
A. We know from the Sacred
Scriptures that the super
natural life. the life of God in
us which makes us fit for
heaven, is gift. The gift is
easily obtained but Amen.
Amen, | say to thee, unless
man be born again of water

greatness of the gift of super
natural life we receive in Bap-
tism we come to feel that it
should be given out automat-
ically to everyone, rather we
should be grateful that God
grants this life to infants who
are baptized and die before
reaching the use of reason.
They obtain heaven purely out
of the goodness of God who
makes the supernatural life so
easy to acquire.
