Fathers. Success was both as,
tonishing and immediate!
Within six months after pub
LEGATION the book already had
sold through the fourth revis-
ed edition.
IN THE INTRODUCTION
the author had declared:
Should the perusal of this
book bring one soul to the
knowledge of the Church, my
labor will be amply rewarded.
Even more than in the number
of copies was the work in this
respect a "best seller" In re-
ceiving the Cardinal Gibbons
Medal at the Catholic Univer-
sity of America, historian
Carleton J. H. Hayes recalled
that so years before he had
been guided into the Church
by The Faith of Our Fathers.
Al Irish we'll digger gave

Joined the faithful. Ascribing
his conversion to the same
source the former Protestant
Episcopal Bishop of Delaware
said: Il have come to see that
the Roman Catholic Church
is the best guarantee for pre-
serving the Christian ideals Of
American life"
The appeal to people of
such wide diversity of tastes
and training is best accounted
for by the compliment from a
South Carolina pastor: "Ev-
erything in the book is as
clear as a sunbeam" In all,
over 1000, 900 copies have
been sold. Like Old Man Riv-
er, The Faith of Our Fathers
keeps rolling along today IS
years after its initial release.
LESS THAN a YEAR after
the publication of this book
James Gibbons became Arch
bishop of the original see in
this country, Baltimore. He
left Protestant Virginia con.
WINGED, he said, that the state
was blessed with people who
had a "broad religious tolera-
ton and a social f%raternal
spirit"

elevation Archbishop Gibbons
was appointed Apostolic

Council OF Baltimore. Ii open

Grover Cleveland was elected

War. But a few days prior to
the voting an incident had oc-

things. First, the anti-Catho-

Gibbons pleasant experience

England intellectuals at
Brook Farm. Long before the
collapse of that experiment
in communal life on a craggy
Massachusetts, hillside, Brown
son had departed on his I'M

long road was his instruction
and baptism by the Coadjutor
Bishop Of Boston, John Bern

SHAKING HIS pompsdoured

had established his reputation
as a lecturer. But his power

In 1865 BroWnson discontin-
ued his Review for a time to
concentrate on his penetrating
study, The American Republic.
Fortunately that very year
gave birth TO another Catholic
literary periodical whose mer-
ii also was recognized outside
of the Church. There was a
marked similarity to Brown.

likewise had been in the group
at Brook Farm before his
search ended in the Catholic
Church. After he had been
ordained a priest, he founded
the Paullst Fathers TO carry
the gospel to "other sheep not

RECOGNIZING THAT the

An unattended compliment

American Foreign Christian

was to improve the literary

Prestige Raised By Writers And Church Councils

THE OCCASION AROSE
when a group of Republicans
was presented to James G.
Blaine, the confident COP.
candidate. Acting as spokes-
man, Presbyterian minister
Samuel T. Burchard assured
the nominee from Maine that
we don't propose to iden-
tify ourselves with the party
whose antecedents are rum,
Romanism, and rebellion"
Blaine did not repudiate the
linking of Catholics with
drunkards and revolutionar-
les, and Democrats immedi-
ately capitalized on the re-
mark. A great-aunt of the writ
er related that handful re-
minders were distributed out
side st. Patrick's Cathedral in
New York the following Sun
day morning. With its import
ant Catholic population that
state was carried by Cleveland
by a little more than 1000
votes, and thereby he became
the national victor.
THE VOICE OF THE PEG.
PIE having been heard, the
800 churchmen who conven-
ted in Baltimore the following
Sunday ignored the incident
completely. Among the 319 de-
crees of this Council, those on
Catholic education showed
the determination of the
American hierarchy to expand
and improve despite any oppo-
sition. In this year Of 1884
500, 900 children were attend
ing parochial schools. Read
ers will recall that this was
the total Catholic population
in the United States but SIS
years before.
The assembled bishops told
the people that mo parish is
complete until it has schools
adequate to the needs of its
children" They urged the
faithful not to relax their eff
forts till their schools be ele-
waited to the highest educa-
tional excellence"

Archbishop John McCloskey of
New York. Too i'll to attend
the council in Baltimore, he
died within the year. There

The slight form Of James

AS THE UNITED STATES
of 1875 was far more proud
of that indefinable American
ism than of multiplication of
numbers and expanse of
of boundaries, so the Church
gloried in the intensity of
Catholicism more than growth
and size. But if figures were
to be cited, those of he
Church were even more i'm
pressive than the totals for
the nation of which she was a
part.

was usual with publications
founded on hatred, the gold
mine petered out. BY 1878 the
annual income had dropped
to one-thirteenth of the initial
year.
Both in and outside the
Church the educated felt the
impact of the works of Brown
son and Hecker. More Amer
leans were aware that the
Catholic hierarchy convened
for the II Council of Baltimore
in 1866.
The rift between North and
South had been paralleled by
a like geographic split in most
major Protestant denomina-
tions. The assembling of the
prelates in Baltimore was an
effective reminder that the
Catholic Church had passed
through the military and polit-
zeal separation entirely undi-
vided in doctrine. Moreover,
spiritual allegiance to the
Pope had not trammeled the
patriotism of either northern
or southern Catholics. The
continued unity of the Church
was a happy harbinger to the
nation that the wounds of
civil strife could be healed

Many of the former considered Ken

he did or said would matter. I'm
doubtedly in state, which once had

Professionals who think no Catholic is
free of Vatican control.
But it seems to me unfair to Ken
nedy-and to his opponents, too-if
everytime he goes on the air or is
interviewed he has to face up to this
so-called ''issue". There may be many
things wrong with Kennedy; his rec
ord may be vulnerable; he may not
fight along certain lines; he may
even be just dabbler in politics. All
these things have been said about him.
Yet he has been more fortnight
on the religious issue than many other
politicians of any faith. The big ques-
ton in many peoples minds was
whether he, as a Catholic president,
would be ''permitted'' or forbidden"
by his Church to sit down with
Khrushchev.
Kennedy said that no such orders
prohibiting face-to-face negotiations
with the Russians would ever be
given by church leaders-and, if CIV
en-, they would mot be obeyed". Until
someone can prove he would behave
