This statement from the

Sunday Blue Laws

who termed it a "clear violation of
Divine Law as embodied in the Third
Commandment; and Archbishop Rit-
ter of st. Louis who spoke in a similar
vein.
One of the eIearest statements was
made by the late Cardinal Strifeh not
TOO long before he died when he set
down three general principles in This
matter: u A Catholic businessman may
not conduct his business on Sundays;
n Catholics are not permitted to work
on Sundays; 81 Catholics may not make
purchases on Sundays.
The only exceptions to the rule are
in the case of certain business services
and certain industries which contribute
to the public good. The mere fact that
others remain open on Sunday is not
an excuse for Catholics, the Cardinal
said, and he pointed out that we have
an extra obligation to avoid scandal in
this matter. In cases of doubt, Catholics
should consult their confessor, but the
problem lies in a great measure in the
hands of the shoppers.
These considerations point up the
obligation we all have regarding the
Sunday observance. They also serve as
an indication to our representatives
that our laws should preserve freedom,
but at the same time uphold the tradi-
tional sanctity of the Lords Day.-GAF

plain spiritual envy.

q. When Is ths sin Of envy
considered mortal? Pieass On.
plain spiritual envy.
A. For any mortal sin there
must be grave matter, suffic-
lent reflection and full con-
sent of the will. Grave matter
in a sin of envy would mean
that the object of the envy
(e.g. someone's superior So
cial status or profession or
financial ~standing) is import
ant or at least that the emo
ton of the one being envious
is so intense as to constitute
grave matter. That is, it might
be possible to be so worked
up over some advantage our
neighbor has that it becomes
serious matter although it is
itself a Slight thing leg. a
nameplate on his office door
or a private parking place..
That it be a mortal sin there
would have to be some, at
least momentary, realization
of the seriousness of the feel
ing we are entertaining and
at least a momentary deliber-
ate choice of that selfish and
resentful feeling which goes
with envy. Spiritual envy is
the worst of all for it consists
of resenting someone's real
or supposed superiority in
spiritual things. The malice
of this and of all envy consists
not in the seeking after bet
ter things but the selfish and
hateful resentment of the
fact that other people have
them.
g. Who started the devo.
tion Of the Holy Hour?
A. 1t seems to be derived
mainly from the devotions of
st. Margaret Mary Alacoque.

ceedlngs we're televlsed. No
torious criminals and vice
queens of the underworld
passed in review across the
TV screens in living rooms.
They looked like mice peo-
pie" TV glamoriZed them.
What the investigators were
saying about them was coun-
teracted by the attractive
physical appearance of the
criminals. In the case Of ra-
dio. however, the listener is
not distracted by a pretty face
or handsome profile. He can
give all his attention to the
evil thing itself.
It's like the matter of por-
traying history. Robert L..
Shayon, in the Saturday Re-
view april II, 1859 said that
radio can give you the feel
of history better than TV can.
To give you the picture of a
historical scene. as TV does,
is not enough. For history is
what went on in the minds
and hearts of the men who
made history.
Shsyon says that radio can
get inside a character more
effectively than TV. Re cited
as an example The Stain
Myth" q radio program on
WBAl-FM. AS he says, This
program did not give you the
faces of the Red revolution
aries but il did "lsy bare the
minds of these revolutionary
despots in all their apoeslyp-
tic %fervor, dedication, deceit,
cunning and terror"
The excitement over the re-
cent CHS programs, as | see il,
points up the fact that radio
has a new role: that of social
crusader. The sleeping pub
lie needs to be shocked into a
realization of the low state OF
public morals.

Making Marriage Click
Big Difference Between
Rhythm, Birth Control
By Msgr. Irving A. DeBlanc

volve having children" There
are two answers you might
consider. First, a matter is
Judged from the rule, not the
exception. Secondly, the con-
cept OF children is still involy-
ed in the definition of the
marriage act in the case OF
the old but the definition is
in a negative sense.
We are. however, quick 10
admit that the intentions of
those who engage in the use
Of rhythm and contraception
are the same; that is. the
avoidance of offspring. There
is again, however, this vital
difference. Artificial contra
ception employs actions which
by their very nature are inn
moral. These actions consist
Of the Illustration of the gen.
erative faculty itself. In the
use of rhythm, on the other
hand, the action is not evil in
itself. Natural law is still OBJ
served.
But in your letter, you seem
to lnsist-that since the effects
are the same In both. the
morality of both must also be
the same. Remember, how
ever, that there are three de-
terminant factors which must
always be kept together.
Therefore, the effects by
themselves are never suffi.
eient in Judging the morality
Of an act. Take, for instance,
the case Of an incurably sick
child or crippled baby.
Death could be most desirable
in such cases, yet no Christian
could inteIlissntly Justify the
poisoning Of that crippled ba.
by, though death in effect
could end the misery Of that
child and those around him.
That one aspect v~itiates the
other two.

One CT the matters concerning the
Ohio legislature in the present session
is the matter of the Sunday blue"
laws. In the city of Columbus, the
Mayor called for enforcement of the
Sunday observance. He has been com
mended by many organizations, includ-
ing our Diocesan Council of Catholic
Men.
All this has brought about a re-ex.
animation of the laws on the books
and many of them appear to be UNI
workable and outmoded, SO it is well
that they be amended or revised.
The formulation Of such laws, is, Of
course, the duty Of our representatives
in the legislature and the Church has
nc part in this matter. However, as a
defender of Gods law the Church does
have the right and duty TO present
the true spirit that should animate the
Sunday observance. A spirit, by the
way, which all must admit. has been i.
almost ~extingvished in some quarters.
Many bishops throughout the United
States have attacked the practice oil

consist Of: First. the circum-
stance of the act, secondly,

any one of these three is evil,
then the whole act is evil. If
one is wrong it vitiates the
other two.

ed, one, two, or three Of the
aspects could be wrong, and
so the whole act would be sim
ful. On the other hand, IL is
possible that oil three aspects
could be good and there would
be absolutely no sin involved
in rhythm.
In fact, where prudence,
Justice, the spirit OF sacrifice,
restraint and good intentions
are involved. Rhythm could
actually become a source of
supernatural grace. This
could never be said of arti-
fetal birth control. In artifi-
cial birth control, the act it,
self is intrinsically evil. That
is, il is wrong in itself, II is
the interference with the
function of a natural faculty.
So, even if the intention not
TO have children were justi-
fled and good in itself. the use
of contraceptives would i'm.
mediately destroy the good
ness of the intention.
That act alone would in
yolve a wild contradiction.
One cannot will and not will
at the same time. One cannot
reasonably affirm and deny at
the same time. One cannot use
a preventive IN an action
which is necessarily associat-
ed with the procreation of
children.
But" you say, what about
people who are too old to
have children? The marriage
act does not necessarily in
