E YORK A Catho

NEW YORK A Catho-
lie newspaper editor has
scored racial discrimination
as a disease of the soul''
and an "affliction of the
human heart"
Msgr. Francis J. Lally, editor
of the Pilot, Boston archdioce-
san paper, spoke at the sixth an
nual observance of Interracial
Sunday on the Bronx campus of
Fordham University.
The prelate, who is also chap
lain and founder of Boston's
Catholic Interracial Council,
warned that in the "reconcilia-
ton of the races our anxiety is
not over the wicked who are full
of hatred; our anxiety is over
the good" who are not good
enough"
From the enemies Of the
Church." ne continued, God
projects US by raining up
saints and statesmen who do
His Will. From her friends
there seems to be for the
Church no such deliversnce."
Msgr. Lally did not limit his
remarks to segregation in the
South, "where at least the ex-
cuse of a long-standing system
gives historic reason for pres
ent unreasonableness," but
added:
"The petty prosecutions of the
North are obnoxious and irritat-
ing and thoroughly inexcusable.
Catholics, to be sure, have a
record of leadership which is
full of inspiration, but we
should be only deceiving oursel-
yes if we pretended that our
people are even now unanimous
ly persuaded on this point"
