LAST OF SERIES
Catholics Don't Need MIRA Philosophy

AS early as 1888 the late
English Cardinal Hinsley of
Westminster said Of MIRA:
THE movement is so tainted
with indifferentism, lie. with
the error that one religion is
as good as another, that no
Catholic may take any active
part therein or formally CO.
operate Herewith"
OTHER CAUTIONS against
MIRA for Catholics were issued
by Cardinal Frings of Cologne
in 1850, Cardinal Shuster of
Milan in 1852, Cardinal Van
Roey for the Belgian HER
archy in 1852 and in 1855 the
hierarchies of the Philippines
and Ceylon.
The Congregation of the
Holy Office, the Vatican body
entrusted with safeguarding
Catholic faith and morals, in
August 1851 issued the fol-
lowing directives to the Bish.
ops of the world: al Priests
and nuns may not participate
in the meetings of Moral Re-
Armament without special per-
mission in exceptional cir
cumstances by the Holy Of

fice;; b. The faithful may not
accept posts Of responsibility
and especially may MOI join
the so-called MIRA "poliey
team"
THESE CAUTIONS we're
emphasized by Cardinal Piz-
zardo Of the Holy Office four
years later when he wrote:
THE Sacred Congregation is
astonished to see Catholics
and even priests seek certain
moral and social detectives,
however praiseworthy they
may be, in the bosom of a
movement which possesses
neither the patrimonyeof doc
trine or of the spiritual life,
nor the supernatural means
of grace which the Catholic
Church has.
1T is even more astonish-
ing to see certain people have
an exaggerated enthusiasm
which apparently makes them
believe hat the methods and
the means developed by Nor
al Re-Armament are more eff
ficacious in this movement
than in the Catholic Church
itself.

Virginia to Boost Pool
Virginia's draft director
Capt. Charles L. KesSler, today
said his Richmond office was
notified lust the other day" to
boost it's available" pool. He
said steps are being taken to
double the currently available
pool of 1000 eligibles.
The State also is stepping up
it's classification of some 100,-
900 men registered for the
draft, Capt. Kessler said.
In Maryland. Brig. Gen.
Henry C. 'Stanwood, director of
the States selective service,
said the State has been ordered
to increase its pool of draft
candidates and to induct eligi-
BILE volunteers by August /.
He said the directives would
result in the imminent induc-
ton of 218 men who volun-
teered for service and were
classified la. These will sup
plement the States July quota
of SO inductees.
Maryland Plans
Gen. Stannard added that
his office will increase from
800 to $500 the number of IA
candidates in the States pool
of eligibles.
The steps in Maryland COIN
cided with the parallel meas
ures taken in Massachusetts,
and Ohio.
Among the other States re-
porting increases in their
ready pools" were Indiana,
Arizona, Oklahoma, Texas,
Georgia, Rhode Island. Illinois,
Oregon, Tennessee and Arkan-
Sas.
In Massachusetts,, Director
Frederick L. Nyham said the
number of men in the pool for
the State was being increased
from 1900 to 2,100, the Associ-
ated Press reported. He said
he had been told the national

dropped to a level of 35,000-to-
$4,000 this year.
The Selective Service chief
declared that his directiveS
urging increases of available
eligibles" in the States was not
based on instructions from the
Pentagon. But he said that. in
view Of current reports that
the armed forces may be
brought up to authorized levels
or bolstered, he deemed it wise
to bring the Nationwide pool
up to the 1857 level.
Calls Are Boosted
Although September's draft
call has not been announced
the possibility exists that II
will be increased. The July cal
was for 5000 draftees. In Au.
gust, 5000 are to be called
There were no draft calls fol-
May and June.
Meanwhile, several States
including Maryland and Vir-
ginia today reported they were
increasing their pools of eligi.
BILE draftees. Officials said the
State calls had no connection
with the Berlin crisis.
When the increased draft
call for August was announced
a Defense Department spokes.
man said the purpose was tt
help bring the Army up to its
authorized strength of $4,000
from its present $4,000.
