marriage to wait eagerly for

She never "'entertainS" others

She does not order him
around like a part-tIme mousse

vantage of his good nature by
asking him to do her work as
well as his own. She often
needs help, of course, as a
housekeeper but expects it
only on a temporary basis.
SHE UNDERSTANDS the
cravings of a man. She knows
he wants to be received and

Misleading Labels

In a recent speech in Dallas, William c. Sullivan,
assistant FBI director, Times, Nov. II, 1861 made a
worthwhile point when he warned Americans against
using ambiguous and misleading terms to character
lie their opponents unless they can define the words
accurately.
WE ECoND MOTION and have deplored
irresponsible labels in these pages before. Such terms
as RED" radical" "%leftist," cleft wing, cleft wing
supporters liberal and Socialist are not Syno-
nyms and must not be applied unfortunately. Other
labels like right wing, +" radical right" 'reactionary,'
fascist and conservative must be used with sim
liar care and due regard for justice and charity.
A person who follows a liberal line of econo-
mic and social thought is not to be called socialistic or
communistic, or any other term of opprobrium. A per-
son who calls himself a conservative in political or
economic matters should not be termed a %"rightist, -
because the latter have nothing conservative about
them.
NOR SHOULD He BE CALLED a "'radicaI right
ISL because these extremists, who were lambasted re-
Gently by our Bishops and President Kennedy in sep
arate statements, are not radical at all. They offer
nothing new to the problems that face us. They have
no solutions at all, just cries Of discomfort and despair.
Sullivan also repeated an earlier warning against
confusing legitimate dissent with communism and
against infringing on civil liberties in the name of an
ti-communism.
Even in this area of legitimate dissent we can
not lump all together. There are those who hold, for
instance, that government Intervention in economic
and social reform is proper but must be very limited.
Others would have the government extend its power
much more widely.
THERE R ALSO MANY degrees of conserva-
tivism. In a recent article in the Saturday Review de
segregation: Will 1t Work? Nov. IL, 1861 William +.
Buckley, Jr laid down this general principle, There
are others who know that some problems are insoluble.
These last are for the most part conyerSatives; and |
am here to defend them"
Now, unless we are quite mistaken, we cannot
imagine such conservatives as Herbert Hoover, the late
Robert A. Taft, or Barry Goldwater subscribing to that
philosophy. We rather think they would agree with
the 1861 statement of>the us. Bishops which said:
Should such a (moraD order take hold in the world
today, there is not a single problem, no matter what
It's magnitude, which would not admit of a reasonable
and, on the whole, a satisfactory solution"
THERE is ROOM in our great country for honest
differences of opinion and disagreement on methods
OF dealing with current problems. 1t has always been
part OF our heritage and we should keep it that way.
Meanwhile, we would do well to remember the
words of St Paul Let all bitterness, and wrath. and

the main reason why wives
are overtired, sickly or weak.
They generally have less faith
in the power of words than
women have. Some wives tell
their husbands a hundred
times a day that they want
to please them. But that is
not enough for a man. Men
are convinced by deeds not
words.
A bride must soon learn to
be a balanced married person.
She must be compassionate
yet efficient. She should take
care of herself when she is
expecting a child but not act
like a dying heroine in a soap
opera. She should work hard
but never overwork or feel
sorry for herself.

Enthusiastically even by some
of Professor Hooks colleagues

There is this difference,
however, between the Pro-
lessor and the Pope. The Pro
lessor is persuaded, . priori,
that the social program is in

failure in the future. The
Pope is confident that. with
the help of God, the Christian
social program will have some
measure of success in the
years to come.

hope is this, that "The Di-

Last Sundays episode of "Bus Stop" wa can

carriage of justice, and excessive violence
AN ADVANCE SCREENING was arranged for the
Taft station managers and all agreed that the pro-
gram for Sunday was a 'thinly-veiled effort to cover
up sex and violence behind a Biblical quote"
The programs advertisers had withdraw from
the episode in question so commentator is in order
for all concerned. Television viewers would do well
to write station officials in approval of this action.
THIS is An EXAMPLE of intelligent moral re-
sponsibility in the entertainment industry. 1t nipple
mentS the recent statement Of the US. Bishops Com
mittee on Motion Pictures which said: freedom of the
screen is in greater jeopardy today than perhaps at
any other time in the history of the medium. The
threat of censorship hangs over motion pictures not
because of any a%ntiquated prudery on the part Of the
audience but because of reasonable public diSsatifac-
ton with current film product, practices and exploita-
ton.
The statement called for more exercise of in
dividual responsibility by producers, distributors, ex-
hibitors and of course, the public.
MORE ACTION LIKE that in the "Bus Stop" mat
ter, if discharged with intelligence and integrity, will
prove TO all concerned that mutual cooperation and
exercise of responsibility are the best guarantee Of

AS | return to parish
life, one of the significant
convictions is that priests
are approached entirely
too late by married cou-
pies in trouble. We priests too
often get the cemetery

ones. We need to be brought
into a family crisis as soon as
the trouble begins.
The basic untitled need of
many American couples is
more warm love. The words

emphasized. This type of love
has to start early and must
constantly grow.

away" or "shoW him who's

This advice substitutes cum
ming for intelligence, tactics
for love, and nothing at all
for happiness. This marriage
is almost doomed at the start.

The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1961-12-08

Professor Sidney Hook
of New York University,
one of Americas most
widely quoted secularist
philosophers, contends in
a recent essay on the so-called
religious revival in the Unit
ed States that Christianity has
absolutely nothing to offer
in the field of social reform.
THE SOCIAL principles of
Christianity" he says, shave
had almost 1000 years in
which to order the world on
a moral basis. 1t is not likely
that anything new can be dis
covered from its principles or
that its social gospel will sue
coed better in eliminating
war, social distress. and in
tense factional strife, than it
did during the historical pc
RODS in which religious in
situations enjoyed chief au-
thority."

Hook about the past record
of Christianity in the field of
social reform. But any anna

Professor when he starts talk

A. Look at a crucifix for a

Testament books as the Book
OF Job we see the very point

earth as the essential sign of
His favor. Since He is good
and wants us TO be happy

miracles of mercy and the
petitions of the Lords Pray
err He often grants earthly
blessings to good people. On

Editor:
Recently I borrowed a
copy of the Blue Book OF

offered for your own inter-
sion?
A. One of the signs of par
ticipation on the part of the
people is the offertory col
lection. AS a sign of this I'M
ion in the liturgy Masses on
Sunday and certain other days
are offered pro populo" Ii.
e. for the people of the par
ish). Pope Plus XII in his en-
cyclical on the liturgy Med
iator Dell spoke of the first
purpose Of the Mass: to give
glory to God. He continues:
And besides, a dialogue
Mass cannot replace the
High Mass and "A con-
gregation that is devoutly
present at the Sacrifice -.
cannot keep silent, for song
BELTS the lover and as the
ancient saying has it, He
who sings we'll prays twice"
The offering made by the con-
gregation on Sunday should be
made in the spirit OF giving
to God apart from questions
of support of parish church
anad school. So too should the
offering be made to an indi-
vidual priest for a Mass to
be offered on some other day.
The sung Mass seems to have
the preference; we cannot
calculate the benefits. We
are not buying anything, but
certainly there is freedom of
choice in deciding one way
or another. The greatest bene-
fits come from self-forgetful-
ness.
