Holy See On Movies

Recently the Holy See, through Cardinal Tardini,
pointed out the harmful effects TO young people of
an increasing number of movies. Times, July Isl
Motion picture producers must face the fact that
the major part of their audience is made up of children
and young people. How are these youngsters being
served?
We did a quick survey last weekend on the movies
showing in the larger cities of the Diocese. Here are
the results.
COLUMBUS had only one film at the downtown
theatres suitable for general patronage and il was
playing at road-show prices. Some neighborhood thea
tres had suitable bills but many were immersed IN
"Bardot-olatry."
cHlLLicoTHE had one film for the family and
one for adoleScents but the latter was scheduled with
sensational and adult fare.
clRclEvlLLE had one bill suitable for children
and another for adolescents but the other showings
were of mixed quality.
c~oSHocToN had one family film showing,
another suitable for adolescents, but a second feature
complicated the other bookings.
DELAWARE had appropriate movies for young
people, but children were excluded from attending.
wi had a similar situation: adoIescents could
find suitable fare but not younger children.
LANCASTER had a Sunday showing of the Ten
Commandments and adolescents could attend a Satur-
day showing at one theatre, but children we're restrict
ed except for the first named.
MARION had a program for young people at
one DRIVEN but everything else, was for adults or
Objectionable. Nothing for children.
MOUNT VERNON had a bill at one Drive-ln on
two DAYS suitable for adolescents but the advertising
was Of a sensational nature. Other showings were for
an adult audience.
NEWAR had a Saturday showing aimed at a
family audience in one Driveln and there was a Sun
day bill for adolescents, but everything else was either
adult or Objectionable. And an ad for Hitchcocks
latest was offensive.
PORTSMOUTH had "Polyanna' showing at one
DriveIn but all the other bookings were mixed. Most
of the advertising should have driven business away
instead of attracting it.
GAINESVILLE had a Saturday bill suitable for
adolescents but all the other bookings we're so mixed,
family attendance was p~recluded.
If YOU have children under Is and wanted to go.
out to a movie or have them see one last weekend, you
faced a difficult task indeed. -GAF.

Church Makes Life Purposeful, MeaningfuI

Merely reading the daily
newspaper is a test for nerve
and courage. 1t is a chronicle
of disturbances and crimes:
of wars or threats of war: of

ton of men and women to
the status of goaded animals.
THERE ARE NOBLE ideals,
but they are never fully real

and to diStort the best efforts
Of those who strive to do
well. Lies and lusts. preten-

Federal Control?
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
In Monsignor Higgins col
umn in The Catholic Times
he has, to this writer's knowl-
edge, favorably ment | toned
Professor John K. Galbraith's
book, The Affluenf Society,
three tines, the last being Ju-
ly %, 1860.
After reading this book the
impression left is that Pro-
lessor Galbraith advocates a
much more controlled econo-
my, greater federal taxes
which can only be leveled, in
one form or another, on all.
Further, if memory serves me
correctly, he does not men,
ton how our present nation
al debt of 289 billion dollars
is to be paid off.
This, however, is incidental
compared to a statement he
makes (pg. 1851 viz, "Educa-
tion, no less than national de-
Tense or foreign assistance, is
in the public domain" IF
words mean anything these
can only mean federal control
of education.

Explain Christ's
MYSTICAL Body
by FIR. Healey

@. What is fhe difference
between the Mystical Body Of
Christ and the Communion
OF saints7
A. The Communion of
Saints referred to in the
Apostles Creed means the
union of the faithful on earth,
the blessed in heaven, and the
souls in purgatory, with Christ
as their Head. The Mystical
Body of Christ, as explained
in that sublime encyclical of
Pope Plus XII, is restricted to
the same union in Christ of
baptized members of the
Church Militant on earth. The
prayers and good works of all
work for the glory of God
and for the welfare of souls:
members of the Mystical Body
on earth can pray and work
for each other and for the
souls in purgatory; the saints
in heaven can help us and we
can and should honor and
praise them. 1t is also COM
monty held that the souls in
purgatory can help us.
@. Recently you mentioned
symbols in church. What is
fhe difference between sym
bols and amhIenfs, il any7

terry in a more or less abstract

@. Is il proper TO ask for q
priests blessing when he Is
leaving after q social call at
your home?
A. 1t is not only proper it
is a recommended Christian
custom. The blessing of the
priest is given at the conclu-
sion of the Mass, during the
administration of most of the
sacraments and commonly on
the occasion of ordination or
first Mass. There is every rea-
son to seek the blessing of God
through His anointed priest
on any fitting occasion, espec-
tally when he visits a home.
He may hesitate to make the
suggestion; the blessing
should be asked for.
