| suppose the reason for
the dizziness in Catholic life
might be an excessive pa
ternalism on the part of the
clergy, too great a readiness
on the part of some shep-
herds to smother any sign of
personal initiative on the part
of the flock.
But we do find many bish-
ops agreeing with Bishop De
Smedt who says in his Priest
hood of the Faithful (Paulist
Press P~aperbacks: 1862 that
"the ceaseless concern and
the genuine preoccupation"
of ordained priests should be
the formation of a spiritually
mature laity. "They must not
prevent laymen from aSsum-
ing the responsibilities that
belong to them, out of a de-
sire to do everything them
selves, without allowing them
(the laymen) in their impat-
fence to acquire the exper-
fence that the actual exercise
of the apostolate should give
them"
THIS MEANS that the laity
should be allowed to expert
ment and experimentation is
what gives a sense of adven-
ture and excitement to apos-
tolic work. The layman has
no desire to experiment with
the changeless doctrines of
the Church but his daily work,

A. 1t seems that we all
know that virtue is not nee
essarily rewarded on earth,
but we find the idea hard to
accept when it hits home to
us personally. Obedience to
God and His law often leads
to persecution and death.
Christ said that the poor in
spirit were blessed and that
the kingdom of heaven was
theirs. All of his teaching
centers around the peace of
soul, which the world cannot
give and cannot take away.
His kindness to the sick and
His love of the poor and un-
derprivileged indicate His de-
sire to assist us in achieving
happiness and freedom from
sorrow on earth. The great
works of the Church for So
cial justice as seen in Pope

WE ARE CONFRONTED
today, he says, with a social
problem which is radically
different in kind from the
social problem of earlier
generations. The new social
problem. he contends, is one
of "the quality of life, of the
creative use of leisure and of
the influence of prefabricat-
ed mass-culture in the century
of the common man."
Coupled with Herberg's
conviction that this is the real
social problem of our genel a.

Court Ba|ks
Condemnation

The United States Court Of
Appeals has. reversed a District
Court ruling permitting the
Government to acquire the IL
story Matomic Building, at lit
H street NV, by condemna-
ton.
The appellate court, in an
opinion by Judge John A. Dan
aher yesterday, said the build
ing was not within the area in
which the Government was per-
mitted to make such acquisi-
lions.
Judge Danaher also said, in
the opinion, that there was no
evidence that the Matomic
Building acquisition was ever
approved by congressional
Committees on Public Works.
The Matomic Building was
one Of the largest privately
owned office buildings in
Washington. The Government
deposited 500 million at Dis
trict Court as the estimated
just compensation.
District Court Judge John j.
Sirica last May rejected a chal-
lenge by Jerry Maiatico, the
buildings owner, and the Mat
omic Operating Co. of the Gov
ernment's right to condemn.
Last September, a Senate
subcommittee was told GSA
rented the building from Mr..
Maiatico for a five-year term
only four months before the
condemnation proceedings were
filed.
The building had been rented
to the Bureau Of Public Roads
for $1.4 million per year, it was
reported. Mr.. Maiatico, the sub
committee was told, had asked
over $12.2 million for the
building in 1859 but later with
draw the offer.

arriving in st. Croix a $500 cou-
pom refundable in liquor, hotel
bills, gifts, transportation expen-
ses, etc. In other words, although
the Puerto Rican visitor to st.
Croix would purchase a round
trip ticket for $24.OO he would get
a $500 coupon from the Tourist
Promotion Committee which
would entitIe him to 500 worth
of gifts, liquors, etc. The net re-
suits would be that the visitor to
st. Crpix would. end up paying
$1.00 less to go to st Croix than
he would to go to st. Thomas.
The plan is a bold and daring
one and reflects the type of in
genuity and thinking necessary
to get st. Croix on the move again.
Efforts had been made on Sc
veral occasions to persuade the

pointing out that tn edistance is

In opening the meeting jobs.
Rasmussen, of Rasmussen Super
ket and chairman Of the Tourist
Promotion Committee stated that
it was generally felt that the $500
difference between the fare from
Puerto Rico to st. Thomas and
the fare from Puerto Rico to st.
Croix has been primarily respon-
sible for st. Thomas receiving
such a large share of the Puerto
Rican Tourist trade and st. Croix
so little.
Mr.. Rasmussen further stated
that attempts to get Caribair to
establish a common fare from
Puerto Rico to both islands have
met with repeated failures. Con-
seq1ently, Puerto Rican Tourists
interested in shopping in the Vir-
gin Islands would naturally pre-
fer to pay $1,000 round trip to go
to st. Thomas rather than the
$24.O0 it costs to come to st.
Croix.
In order to offset this $500 diff
ference the committee has divised
