1t does. Although not every
one accepted the Redemption
of Our Lord, that Redemption
Is available to everyone. The
waters of life are more album
dant than the cups that are
brought to the well, but its
refreshment is open to all.
This is the basis of our love
Of the Missions. We should
not think of on-Christians
as "pagans'; rather they are
ante-C Christians, that is, they
are like caterpillars who can,
by a full response to grace,
become butterflies.
POPE LEO XIII said of his
act of consecrating all man
kind to the Sacred Heart: ut
is the greatest act of my pom
tificate and ii will hasten the
arrival of those mercies for
the world we all await"
Readers: Do not allow your
outlook on the world to be de-
fined by the newspapers. Most
news today concerns the
breaking of one or the other
of the Ten Commandments.
The world OF the future can
be peaceful and beautiful, for
it is not determined by poll
tics. but by God. Christ is the
Lord of history, not Marx.
FOR TEN YEARS we have
been urging in this column a
greater spirit of sacrifice to
bring the Sacred Heart TO the
potential Catholics of Asia
and Africa. And all the Vicar
of Christ gets from us Catho-
lies in the United States is
81 cents per year - the price
of one package of cigarettes!
Really! Do you think we can
bring the love of the Sacred
Heart to the world through
our missionaries for II cents
a year? Nowl What are you go
ing to do? For the love of the
Sacred Heart or His Vicar on
earth can you consider one
of these possibilities:
/. Be one of a thousand who
has enough of the worlds
goods to give to Africa OF
Asia, in honor Of the Sa.
cred Heart, a chapel costin
a minimum Of $2500. Only
let the Holy Father deter
mine the site.
2. Be one of a million who
will give 10 cents a da.

WASHINGTON LETTER

WASHINGTON,-The
nations domestic pro-
blems are worsening and
may soon be as grave as
the international o n
Germs. In some ways the two
groups of issues are strongly
intertWined.
THIS is THE PICTURE as
observers talk more and more
about the atmo S p h in
which a new national admins
tration will be inaugurated in
January. Some writer's say a
recession is on the way, al
though they don't use the
word depression" Or indi-
cate that it will be anything
like the situation President
Franklin D. Roosevelt faced
in March, 1888. Others, look
ing at both the domestic and
foreign problems, say the out
look is worse than it was %
years ago.
Great concern is being ex-
pressed over the flow of gold
from this country. This seems
to have become a serious sit
uation. Foreigners hold short
term credits in our market
variously estimated to range
from $40 billion to sos bill
lion. Payment of these credits
can be demanded in gold or
foreign currencies. The situa-
ton has already put a strain
on our gold reserve at Fort
Knox, estimated at $18.5 bill

You Can Build Chapel

This chapel serves as The House of God for Iepers
on an island in Oceania and represents one Of the
gravest needs in mission lands today. In the face OF
this, we are asking The Catholics Of the United States
10 construct 1000 chapeIs in honor of the Sacred
Heart; if possible, before January I. Such a chapel can
be built for as little as $500. The only condition we
ask is that you allow the Holy Father TO decide where
these chapeIs will be built. From those who cannot
afford $500 we ask only a dime a day in the name of
the Sacred Heart. At the end of each month send your
offering to the Holy Father through his society for the
Propagation of The Faith.

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

APPOINT MENT: When
Irving Thalberg was Holly
woods leading producer, he
once called Playwright Moss
Hart out to the coast from
New York to see him, relates
Beth Day in "This Was Holly
wood"
Hart came in one morning,
for a 10 o'clock appointment.
The secretary told him that
Thalberg was in a meeting
and could not be disturbed. At
IL, Hart was still waiting, and
he asked the secretary if he
could 60 to lunch.
"He returned to the ante
room and waited until 5 pm.
Then he decided to go back
to his hotel and left his tele-
phone number with the secre-
tary. She told him to come
back the following morning.
Hart appeared and went
through the same routine.
This went on for five days.
Finally, in disgust, he went
back to New York. There, a
few days later, he related his
grievances to friends. Another
writer said:
"'I think you were wrong to
leave. If Thalberg wanted to
see you, he will see you. You'd
better go back
Hart took a train to the
coast, came into the studio at
$50 the morning following his
arrival. At 10 o'clock Thai
berg walked in and saw him.
He grasped his hand and said:
" Mr.. Hart, I'm Irving
Thalberg. 7 sorry I haven't
been able to see you sooner.

The Phillips Gallery had a
belated season opener last
night, presenting a rare treat
to a large audience delighted
to hear music in the lovely sur
roundings once more-a view
into the workshop of a minor
master of the art song, John
Edmunds.
It is not well known that Mr..
Edmunds, whose personal
idiom is gentle, delicate and
quite conservative, is also one
of the most eloquent and ac-
tive exponents of the avant-
garde composer in our country
today. AS curator of the
Americana Section of the Mu-
sic Division in the New York
Public Library and through his
writings and his lectures, Mr..
Edmunds champions this cause
selflessly and tirelessly.
Here in Washington, we are
to hear Mr.. Edmunds as pro-
pagandist later this month
when he speaks under the
auspices of the institute Of Con-
temporary Arts. Yesterday. his
own precise and subtle art had
the opportunity to speak
through Baritone John Lang
staff, a longtime friend of the
composer and a first-rate inter-
pretive artist in his own right.
Ten original songs by Mr..
Edmunds, composed over a pc
riod of more than two decades,
alternated with realizatlons of
vocal music by Henry Purcell
and Alessandro Scarlatti 1.-TWO

settings of Anglo-Celtic folk
songs and ballads in the great

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
General Practitioner Basic Need
BY Or. PETER }. sTEINcRoHN

Whether you call your
family doctor a general prac-
titioner or "generalist"
doesn't matter. I think he
should be the backbone Of
medical practice today. Be-
fore you begin to call on an
array of specialists, he is US
ually the one to whom you
bring your early complaints.
It is for this reason that gen.
eral practitioners have q ter
rife responsibility to their
patients.
The family doctor must be
able to recognize illness in its
early stages; to put out the
fire while 1t is a small one,
and prevent it from becoming
q disastrous confiagration.
EVERY FAMILY should
have a trusted general prac-
titioner to care for their
health; rather than depend
upon a collection Of special
lists to diagnose and treat
their earliest symptoms. A
depen Id Bile practitioner
should know his own limita-
tions and when to call for
help.
I have read recently that
eye strain and constipation
aren't causative factors in
headaches. Like everything
else, I think we should put

swear that corrective glasses
or q laxative have, without
question. cleared up their
headaches. Why doubt them?
The remedy is simple. and !

For example, here is q note
just received from Mrs. D. Of
California: ION the infre-
quent occasions when I am
conStipated, the condition is
invariably accompanied by
a dull headache which is
completely relieved when the
constipation is corrected.
For many years I was
under the impression that a
headache was a natural COM
comitant Of constipation. But
several years ago I was in
formed that it was impossible
for a constipated condition to
cause a headache-or at least
that they were totally unre-
lated"

of Margie. We're going out" "
Margie is 6 and we have lots
of fun when I'm in the mood.
The other night I took 1t
out on Margie. I was furious.
I was supposed to meet my
girl friend and 60 to the 'Y"
for folk dancing,
Out of a clear sky, my
mother said, fDad,s waiting
for me downtown. He has Q
pass for the I movjes Put
Margie to bed and finish the
kitchen.
My girl friend wanted to
stay with me but I told her
to go ahead and tell me all
about 1t later. I dumped
Margie into bed and didn't
even read to her the way I
always do. They'll all have to
learn I have some feelings
too.
Mrs. T.C.-Gina knows we
don't have money to spend
on babysitters. For years my
husband and I stayed home
to take care of her and her
baby sister. She was so proud
the first time we left her in
charge of Margie. She was a
real little mother to that
child.
Suddenly she is sulking
about minding Margie. It's
such a change because she
always adored the baby.
There's seven years between
them and, from the begin
ming, Gina said Margie was
her baby, not ours.
What does she expect me
to do, pay three or four dol
lars every time we go out?
We give Gina a fair allow
ance and why shouldn't she
do her share and earn it?
Now that she has a chance
to give us a little freedom,
you'd think she'd be happy
about it.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Beneath the surface of
this argument, we see the
fabric Of a devoted family
which can surely work out
this problem of the fair ap-
portionment of time off.
Gina's plans are important.
So is her parents need of
recreation. Tackled as a fam
lily enterprise, the question of
who stays home with Margie
can be answered with some
loving give-and-take and
sympathetic f1exibility.
Mrs. c. mentions allowance
and implies that Gina earns
it, in part, by babysitting for
her parents. This puts a
rather Grass face on what
should be a labor of love, q
contribution to family soli-
darity. Salary for services
rendered is one thing and it
can come from any employer.
Allowance is another matter
and is tangible evidence of a
child'S share in the family's
affairs, and of faith in his
ability to handle money.
Yes, Gina now has new
plans, new moods - as she
admits - and new feelings
about her family. Taken with
understanding and a sense of
humor, these can strengthen
the ties that bind them. She
needs the ties, but she's ask
ing that they change from
ribbon to elastic.
