OF A Woman

Much is written today about the influence of
woman in the modern world.
But the most powerful influence is exerted by
the most perfect woman ever created, the Blessed
Virgin Mary.
BY HER LIFE. MARY changed the course of
history and became what Henry Adams calls the
greatest force the Western world has ever felt"
In the ages of Faith, he points out, she was able
to serve as a model of holiness whereby she humaniz-
ed character, softened and purified manners, evoked
all that was noble in the human heart, consecrated
natural beauty, kindled warmth in human relations,
inspired the most glorious examples Of Christian art,
and aroused the finest displays of chiyalric bravery.
We know that her influence still carries its
force today when Mary continues TO educate all her
children gently and lovingly in things human and
divine.
MARY is NOT ONLY Jul ideal and guide but
our Chief intercesSOr before the throne Of her Divine
Son Since May is her month, Bishop Issenmann has
asked US to implore her to pray for world peace, re-
ligious Vocations, and Gods blessings on the coming
Ecumenical Council.
FROM PAST EXPERIENCE we know our pet-
tions are in the best hands. And the slogan Never
underestimate the power of a woman can surely be
prominently applied to that Woman who is above
all others and who is our Life, our Sweetness, and
our Hope, teaching us to be completely holy by example
and prayer. -GAF.

We were watching TV the other night and re-
ceived a great inspiration on how to make highways
safer.
YOU SEE, ALL o AVE to do is have each
automobile manufacturer rate his products for safety
value.
For instance, Fordolac All, for adults and dis
terminating t%eenagers; Omnibus AL, suitable for the
whole family; VoltScooter Il, for bachelors under 35
ct Cetera.
OF COURSE SOME WILL cheat. Jagswish, which
should be rated C' for condemned will tack an AL
rating on just to snag the greater profit. But after a
few fatalities, we'll all know that.
No, we won't be able to make them change their
rating, that would be in violation of their freedom to
fool the public.
WHAT IF A BUNCH of buyers get together and
rate the cars? No, you can't do that either, you see
that goes against our great constitutional privilege of
mobility. You see when the consumers start to think
Ike tins, the next thing you know wen all have to
have governors on our cars. Eventually we'd be forced
into obeying traffic laws.
WHATTA-YA MEAN NOT realistic? Like we tell
you this was on Tv. Some movie producer said this
would work for the silver screen. Who's more realistic
than a movie producer in this day and age anyway?
And what's good for MGM must be good for GIN.

progress?
THE PRACTICAL consider
alton with regard to any
scientific gadget or develop
ment is the question of the
purpose for which the new
invention will be used. If it is
used to stifle human freedom.
it is evil, Ii it advances true
freedom, it is good
The basic idea of Western
democracy is that science is
progressive" when its inven-
tions give the human person
more freedom, more liberty to
love what is good and know
what is true.
The concept of 'inalienable
rights in our constitution
is that there is a drama going
on in the soul of every human
being and that no government
has any right to intrude in
that drama. 1t is a drama in
which the person carries on a
conversation with God by
prayer and alteration.
FOR US CATHOLICS, for
instance, the main business
of life is to answer the call
of Christ who asks for love
and service of the neighbor.
If a scientific or technolog-
ical development STILES the
liberty of the human person
to know and love God, then it
is not progress" but "re-

Economic Life:

by Msgr. George C.. Higgins

Last week, in the first
of a series of columns on
the forthcoming anniver-
sary of the two great So
cial encyclicals, Rerum
Novarum and Quadragesimo
Ammo, it was suggested that IN
the field of social legislation
considerable progress has
been made since, and to a GER
tain extent because of, the
encyclicalS.
This week we turn our at
tention to the teaching of the
encyclicals on unions and
employers organizations.
BOTH LEO XIII AND Plus
XI vigorously defended the
right of workers to organize
into unions of their own
choosing and Fundamentally
gave their approval to union
ism as a necessary measure
of reform in modern economic
life.
Leo's endorsement Of I'M
ionism was widely disregard
ed in the United States, so
much so that by the time of

later, only two or three mil

members of bona fide unions.

Science and Religion

On Thursday, April u, CBS-TV presented an
other of their reports titled Why Man in Space"
1t was an interesting and fascinating explanation
of our present accomplishments and some conjecture
about the future near and far.
IN ANSWER TO A QUESTION about life on
other planets, DR.. Albert Hibbs, chief of the Space
Science Division, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, said "It
is possible that if we encountered life on another
planet, we might be looked upon as we look upon
domestic animals"
He went even further. He declared there is a
possibility that life on earth might have come into
existence millions of years ago when beings from
another planet landed here and left refuse which
produced a bacteria able to withstand the hostile en-
vironment of this planet. All life here might possibly
have evolved from that small specimen of bacteria.
He SAID WE MIGHT do the same by landing
on uninhabited planet, leaving our garbage, as he
expressed it and a whole new cycle of life might
come into exiStencei
We shall not pass judgment on the element of
chance in employing evolution as a possible hypo-
thesis for life on earth. Some Catholic scholars admit
the possibility of chance as a part of the mechanism
of evolution, as long as we hold God used it in His plan.
WHAT STRIKES US ABOUT such statements as
those OF DR.. Hj5bs, is that some people who refuse to
accept the Divine origin of creatures often use as a
reason that attributing the material world to super
natural causes is utterly fantastic.
And yet, those same people will unquestioningly
accept as scientific and worthy of credence a theory
that all life on earth including man, came from a
bacteria formed on the garbage disposed of by
interplanetary p~icnickers $50 million years ago!
IN SUCH MINDS RELIGION and science are poles
apart, where in reality the principle of divine causalty
is scientific and logical while the mountings of pseudo
scholarship is SO much garbage. CAT.

We constantly get let
ters from single girls.
Some deliberately dedi-
cate their lives to God
and neighbor and are
happy. Others are frus-
trated because they are still
single.
The fact that these did not
get a husband could be an
accident of nature and no
fault of their own. 1t is unfor-
tunate they feel the way they
do. This life is no doubt
Gods vocation for them.
A TRUE CHRISTIAN sees
the call of God in every cir
cumstance of life. The fact
that there are about three
and one-half million more
single girls than men of mar
riageable age in this country
indicates that this is the
will of God. A vocation is
judged, not only from intern
al inclinations, but also by
external circumstances.
It is human to occasionally
whimper but it is not reason
able to rebel. The single girl
can contribute much to Gods
cause; not only because she
has more time than most mar
ried women and often has
more technical know-how in
certain jobs but because she
becomes the model of great
Christian ideals.
There are tasks the single
girl can perform often better
than anyone else. She can

the Miraculous Medal start?
A. An humble nun described
the apparition of Our Lady
and her request that such a
medal be made. For years af-
ter the medal was widely ae-
cepted and acclaimed as mir
aculous because of the great
graces and favors that follow
ed its prayerful use the iden-
tity of the nun was known on
ly TO her confessor. Her name
was ST. Catherine Laboure,
canonized in 1947 with a feast
day on November 18th. The
apparitionS took place in the
convent of the Sisters of Char
ity of st. Vincent de Paul in

life as a devout religious and
her identity was revealed only
in the months before her
