1t is reported that each Fri.
day the nun entered a trance

guages which she did not
know, such as ancient Greek,
Hebrew and Aramaic. Her
voice took on husky tones and
sounded much like a mans, 1t
was reported.
On Good Friday she suffer
ed with particular violence
and on emerging from her
trance would become uncon-
scious until Easter Sunday.
The blood on her forehead
and side were examined
scientifically and 1t had been
established that it belonged
to the same blood group as
that in the nuns veins.
Rome's newspapers report
ed that she told Edvige Mus.
soilni in 194l that italy would
lose the war and that her
brother, Benjto Mussolini,
would meet with a violent
end.
She founded the Little Sis

and the truths of the Faith
may not be harmed"
For example, many Biblical
scholars - but by no means
all - today regard the New
Testament detail that "the
curtain of the temple was
torn in two at the time of
Christ's death as not neces-
sarily stating an actual fact.
Instead, some Sc ripturaI
scholars find that by compar-
ing the phrase with similar
expressions in a number of
contemporary languages. that
it is a metaphor meaning that
with Christ's death there end
ed the Old Law and there
began the New.
THE PROBLEM OF THE
Interpretation of literary
forms today does not so much
involve the principle of APP
plying such a standard. In
stead. what is being debated
within the Church's most
scholarly circles is how and
what degree such a principle
should be applied.
Some recent Biblical critl-
cism has held, for example,
that the Magi - the wise men
were not necessarily real
persons, but represent in a
metaphorical way the search
of mankind for the Messiah.
Others have suggested that
even the dialogue between the
angel and Mary at the time of
the Annunciation can be I'M
derstood as a naturalization
of an inward spiritual event.
ALL THIS HAS NATURAL
LY caused a certain amount
of grave concern on the part
of many bishops and others
throughout the world who
are worried about the effects
such statements might have
on Catholics who are not
equipped to follow the in
tense scholarly debates on the
subject. Moreover, there is
by no means complete agree
ment on such interpretations
among various sectors of Bib
lical scholarship.
The warning by the Holy
Office serves to remind
scholars that their studies are
not only a matter of scholar
ly interest and that they must
avoid premature populariza-
ton of unproven conjectures.

WASHINGTON The di-
rector of the Peace Corps has
reaffirmed the corps inten-
ton to make full use of U.s.
private and religious over

rangement which has oc-
casioned some complaints.
R. Sargent Shriver, Jr., told
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee June 20 that I'VE
hope to utilize American uni
-versities and private volun-
tary agencies to the maxi
num-"
His testimony came after
disclosure by Peace Corps of
ficials that IL projects are
being assigned to private
agencies and six of them will
be carried out by church
groups.
This news brought COM
plants from the american
Jewish Committee and the
United Presbyterian Church
in the U.S.A. that the ar
'~rangements with religious
groups threaten to violate
sour historic belief in the
separation of Church and
State"
In testimony on a bill to
make the Peace Corps a

operation, Mr.. Shriver said
the corps already has sue
cessful contracts with both
voluntary agencies and uni
versities.

HOLY SEE:
HOLY SEE:
Gives Reminder To
Biblical Scholars

ROME-The Holy See
in warning Biblical scho-
lars to be prudent in
carrying out their activi-
ties was seen here as re-
flecting concern that certain
tendencies in current re-
search might be confusing to
the average Catholic.
THE WARNING WAS IS
SUED BY the Sacred Con-
gregation of the Holy Office
(June 20). Addressed to Scrip
tural scholars throughout the
world, the Latin decree, call
ed a "monitum," said that care
must be taken that Biblical
studies do not result in harm
TO the beliefs of the people.
The warning specificies that
in the praiseworthy fervor
of Biblical studies in various
regions, opinions and judy
ments have been circulating
which place in danger the
true, historic and objective
truth of the Sacred Scrip
lures, not only of the Old
Testament, but also of
the New. even in regard TO
the words and deeds of Our
Lord"
The warning goes on 10
say that because of the con-
Germ such views have caused
to pastors and the Christian
faithful, the cardinal men,
bers of the Congregation Of
the Holy Office have deemed
it necessary to caution all
those who write or teach
Biblical subjects.
The Holy Office, which is
charged with protecting faith
and morals, referred in pass
ing to Human Generis, 1850
encyclical in which Pope
Plus XII warned against I'M
due freedom in interpreting
the Bible.
THE NEW WARNING does
not specify exactly what
views it refers to. 1t tells
Biblical scholars they should
always have "due prudence
and reverence" when engag-
ing in such serious matters
and keep before their eyes
%'the teachings of the Faith
ers and the mind and teach
ing authority of the Church
so that the consciences of the
faithful may not be perturbed

When the Negro became free
and the South's poor whites
gained control Of Southern politics,
there developed the pattern Of to-
days segregation: physical separ-
alton with constant reminders OF
black inferiority and white super
iority."
This Jim Crow pattern Of seq
regation, established by the poor
whites who had gained political
ascendancy over the Southern aris-
tocracy or Bourbons, was allowed
to exist, according to DR.. Noble,
because nothing made 1t impos-
sible."
Between 1890 and 1914, the
North, with an influx Of Southern
European immigrants, and the
rest of the world with its royalty,
were committed to theories Of rae

Noble termed, white, Anglo-Sax-
on Protestant superiority"

Directors and members of the
Associated Negro Credit Union,
Oldest thrift organization in the
Twin Cities community learned at
the August directors meeting that
the union had reached and gone
over the 500, 900 in assests mark
in July.
The July, 1861 treasurer's finan-
cial report showed a total of
$106, ,033.70 in assets-an increase
Of $32, ,726.15 over July of 1860.
This phenomenal growth secre-
tary-treasurer Ashby GaslSins told
the board, was due largely to in
creased interest of members in
savings and doing business with
their own organization.
At the annual meeting in March
members Of the union vowed to
drive the assets to the $1,000, 900
mark by the end of December. The
goal has now been reached five
