This sort of thing happens all the time before the

Here are some recent examples:

THE COMMITTEE reaffirm-
ed its intention at once by
tabling, 81, a motion to re-
consider.
Theoretically, the school
aid bills could still come to
a House vote in this session
of Congress if a majority of
the 219 members of the
House were to sign a petition
to force a vote. But there
seemed little chance that this
would happen so late in the
session.
Speaker OF the House Sam
Rayburn said even before the
Rules Committee vote that it
was very doubtful" that the
House would act on any
school aid legislation this
year.
BEFORE THE HOUSE com
mittee's action, the proposal
for Federal loans to private
schools had moved closer to
a decision on the Senate floor

pressed agriculture. He said
that the migration of farming
populations to the cities has
assumed I'm massive proper
TONS in many countries. He
said that it is necessary that
tillers of the soil may not be
possessed of an inferiority
complex but rather be per-
suaded that even in agricul-
ture they can develop their
personality through their toll
and look forward to the fu-
ture with confidence. . 1t is
above all indispensable that
great care be taken, especially
by public authorities, to in
sure that the essential Serv-
ices in country areas be suit
ably developed"
The Pope stressed the great
need for maintaining a har-
monious balance between all
sectors of production" Farm
ers, he said, should be able
to enjoy the benefits and serv-
ices available to workers in
city industries. He noted this
could be facilitated by SEN
sible taxation, making capital
available for investment in
agricultural projects, and
through social insurance, So
cial security and price pro-
lection.
He said further that rural
workers should feel a sense
of solidarity with one anoth-
er: "They need to organize
TO have a voice in political
circles as we'll as in organs
Of public administration, for
today almost nobody hears,
much less pays attention to,
isolated voices"
On the other hand Pope
John said that farmers must
try to reconcile their rights
and interests with those of
other classes of workers, and
even subordinate one to the
other if the common good
demands it."

POPULATION

Pope John next turned his
attention to the so-called
population explosion. Noting
that with modern progress
the excessive births over
deaths is steadily increasing
and that it is claimed that
the standard of living may
possibly be reduced in the
underdeveloped nations, the
Pope said: There are those
who would have recourse to
drastic measures of birth con.
troll or prevention"
THE REAL SOLUTION to
the problem is not to be found
in expedients that offend the
moral order established by
God and which injure the
very origin of human life, but
in a renewed scientific and
technical effort on the part of
man to deepen and extend his
dominion over nature. The
progress of science and
technology, already realized,
opens up in this direction
limitless horizons"

create an artificial opposition
between the perfection of
ones own being and ones
personal, active presence in
the world
He related this to the doc
trine of the Mystical Body Of
Christ. Noting that all are
called to life by Christ, the
Pope said, when one carries
on ones proper activity, even
if it be of temporal nature, in
union with Jesus the Divine
Redeemer, every work be-
comes a continuation of His
work and ~redemptive power"
The encyclical closed with
a note of hope:
Our era is penetrated and
shot through by radical err
rorS; it is torn and upset by
deep disorders. Nevertheless
it is also an era in which i'm
immense possibilities for good
are opened to the Church 49,.
I'VE DESIRE THAT that
the Divine Redeemer of men,
who has become for us God
given wisdom and justice and
sanctification and redemption
Il Cor. l, 30), may reign in
triumph, glorious throughout
the ages, in all and over all;
We desire that human society
be restored to order, Chat all
nations may firmly enjoy
prosperity, happinessa and
peace"
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1961-07-21
SOCIAL DOCTRINE

In the final section of the
encyclical, Pope John labeled
as "the most fundamental
modern error" that of consid-
ering the religious demands
of the human soul IAN eX-
preston of feeling or of fan
taSy" which should be "elimi-
mated as an anachronism and
an obstacle to human prog
resS."
To remedy this situation.
the Pope called on the cafhe-
lies of the world TO teach and
preach the ChUreh's social
doctrine. I'VE feel urged to
exhors that such teaching be
extended by regular sYste-
matte courses in Catholic
schools of every kind, sspe-
eiaIIy in seminaries."
Pope John stressed that in
social education, associations
and organizations of the lay
apostolate play an important
role, especially those that
have as their specific objec-
tive the ChriStianization of
the economic and social Sec
tors of the temporal order"
Urging all to "look, judge,
act" the Pope declared that
the task Of action belongs
particularly to Our sons, the
laity."
The Roman Pontiff warned,
however, that Catholics must
be on their guard to preserve
an active aWarenesS "of a
hierarchy of values as they
carry on their temporal af-
fairs and seek their immedl-
ate ends"
POPE JOHN MADE a gen.
eral plea for the observance
of Sunday as a day of rest.
Deploring laxity in this mat
ter, he said: "In the name of
God and for the material and
spiritual interests of men, We
call upon all, public authori-
ties, empyolerS and workers,
to observe the precepts of
God and His Church, and We
remind each one of his grave
responsibilities before God
and society"

concept Of a living wage by
specifying that this be a fam
lily wage.
He echoed Pope Leo's call
for proper social legislation,
but also called attention to
the dangers of loading exces-
sive burdens onto the state.
Pope Plus XI's unique con-
tribution was to call for a
structural reform in society
through the creation of inter
mediary economic bodies to
regulate the economy in the
interests of justice and char
ity.
This regulation could be
positive in intent. as for ex-
ample the Joint efforts of
labor and management to in.
crease productivity and de-
crease costs in an industry.
Or it could be more negative
in scope, c~entering on the.
regulation of abuses.
Here. for instance, bodies
representing labor and man
agement could control de-
structive types of eompeti-
ton, instead of leaving such
regulation TO the government.

COOPERATION

The Vicar of Christ then
spoke of the threat posed to
mankind by modern weapons.

most disturbing contradictions

ed, often extensively, to pro-
vide terrible instruments of
ruin and death"
CONCERNING THE PROB.
LEM of cooperation on a
world scale, the Pope said
that the important problems
of today present troubles of
supernatural and often
worldwide dimensions" 1t is
because of this that under
standing and cooperation are
so necessary"
At the same time, he said:
1T seems that men, especially
those entrusted with greater
responsibility, show them
selves unable to understand
one another.
1.-THE root of such inability
is not to be sought in scienti-
fic, technical or economic
reasons, but in the absence
of mutual trust.
The Pope traced this lack
of trust to the fact that not
all men recognize the moral
order-"an order which is
transcendent, universal, alb.
solute, equal and binding on
all" He said they, therefore
''fail to meet and understand
each other fully and openly

CALLING FOR SINCERE
politi cal disinterestedness,
the Pope also urgeo the eco
nomically advanced countries
to respect a hierarchy of
values in the nations they as
sist. Lack Of such respect
constitutes an insidious pois-
on, and one of the most
dangerous, in the work which
the economically developed
peoples can give to those on

DEVELOP NATIONS

Speaking Of relations be-
tween economically advanced
countries and those still in
the process Of development,
he said this is probably 1.-THE
most difficult problem Of the
modern world"
He STATED: '"The solidar.
ity which binds all men and
makes them members of the
same family imposes on politi-
cal communities in
abundance of material goods
Ghe obligation) not to remain
Indifferent to those political
communities whose citizens
suffer from poverty, misery
and hunger, and who lack
even the elementary rights Of
the human person"
The Pope noted there are
countries which produce con-
sumner goods, especially farm
products in excess, while in
other countries large segA
ments Of the population suf-
fer from misery and hunger;
Justice and humanity de-
mand that the former come

destroy or to squander goods
that other people need in or

He added that destruction
of surplus goods cannot be
excused on the grounds of
economic harm to a certain
part of the population.

SAID, lis not enough to elimi-
nate or to reduce the causes
which in not a few political
