FIELDS for CATHOLIC ACTION Faith Morals Education Press Social Order Fourth Edition 19,500 No. 66 Published In the U. S. A. April 26, 1945 By OUR SUNDAY VISITOR PRESS HUNTINGTON, INDIANA Deacfeffitotf FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION As professed followers of Christ, as registered soldiers of His Kingdom, as co-laborers with the Hierarchy in Catholic Action, our primary objec- tive must be that for which our Di- vine Saviour prayed: “Ut omnes unum sint.” — “That all may be one.” As devotees of the American Re- public, as loyal citizens of its many contributory commonwealths, our pri- mary objective must be that which the Constitutional Fathers decreed must be the motto of our nation: “E pluribus unum” — “One to grow out of many.” Universal unity in faith, in the ob- servance of the moral law, in Chris- tian charity, unity among all Chris- tians against the enemies of God and the forces destructive of civilization, is certainly a lofty objective for which to strive; and the realization of it would cure all the ills which create momentous problems for govern- ments throughout the world. 4 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION The union of forty-eight states in our one Republic is akin to, but less perfect than, the union of nearly as many nations in the one universal Kingdom of Christ. The difference is that which must be noted between unity and union; and, of course, be- tween the benefits supernatural de- rived from the one, and the benefits natural derived from the other. Citizenship in Christ’s and Caesar’s Kingdom The Creator intended that every- one born into this world should be a citizen both in the country of his na- tivity and in the Kingdom of Christ; that the State occupy itself with the temporal and the Kingdom of Christ with the eternal welfare of the same individual. Recently our President made a plea for unity of effort to conquer our na- tional ills. The Holy Father pleads for unity of effort to subdue our moral ills. Cooperation of the whole citizenry of the Kingdom of Christ; FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION £ cooperation of the entire citizenry of the State, each for the welfare, spirit- ual or material of the same people, is the supremest need. There need be no conflict of inter- ests or obligations, no matter how far the spirit of nationalism be carried in any given country, if only all citi- zens be allowed by Caesar to exer- cise, unhampered, their inalienable right to liberty both religious and civil, to the pursuit of happiness both eternal and temporal. Our Duties in Christ’s Kingdom As members of the universal king- dom of Jesus our interests must be world-wide. As soldiers in this king- dom we must labor for its spread, and for the general adoption of its lofty moral code, even for the benefit and glory of the nations themselves. But we, of this country, are natur- ally expected to center our efforts and to exert our zeal primarily here. The field, vast and in need of cultivation, offers wonderful opportunities to an 6 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION apostolate conducted by an army of workers, willing and ready to accept a mandate from their Hierarchy. Every Catholic can find profitable employment in one of the many de- partments of this business of God; indeed there is room for all in the ad- vertising and sales departments alone —for there are 100,000,000 prospec- tive customers and patrons. Through- out the long life of Christ’s Kingdom, beginning with the days of the Apos- tles, Catholic women have done much for souls and for society principally through the apostolate of prayer, ex- ample and instruction. Their ser- vices are now needed in a wider field, because so many of their sex are on the side of the world, the flesh and the devil; because the family can be best strengthened by their help; be- cause so many social evils cry to mor- ally-minded women for correction. Fields in Which to Work The ills, and therefore the needs of America are practically all to be found in the Five Fields of Faith, FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 7 Morals, Education, the Press, the So- cial Order. Therefore permit me to make a brief survey of these fields, and then to observe whether they will lend themselves to profitable cultiva- tion through Catholic Action. FAITH IN THE UNITED STATES : According to the 1926 Census on Religious Denominations, gathered under government auspices, there are 70,000,000 of our fellow-citizens unaf- filiated with any Christian organiza- tion. Though for the most part sym- pathetic towards Christianity, few of them were ever baptized, and hence live their lives separated from the Supernatural. No less than the ad- vanced pagans of Paul’s time they are in need of instruction on the “Un- known God”, on the Personal God Who, if known and served, would “give joy to their youth”, inspiration and power to their middle age and comfort to their senility. Twenty-six millions among the other 50,000,000 lay claim to the de- 8 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION signation “Protestant Christians”, al- though their allegiance is divided among more than two hundred groups or sects. Fundamentalists and Mod- ernists, they are all Individualists; that is, they recognize no universal spiritual leader on earth, no accred- ited spokesman for God, no guide to- wards salvation save the Holy Scrip- tures, which they accept solely on the authority of our Church, and then subject it in turn to their own pri- vate authority—a rule of faith so il- logical and confusing that it, more than anything else, is responsible for the predominance of religious indif- ferentism among the 70,000,000 who remain aloof from church member- ship. After deducting 4,000,000, who are racial descendants of God’s people in the Old Dispensation, there are 20,- 000,000 left. These hold membership in the one undivided Catholic and Apostolic faith, and are of one mind and of one heart with 300,000,000 others, who constitute the universal, the historic Christian Church. FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 9 MORALITY IN THE UNITED STATES We are told, and I believe reliably, that more money is spent in policing the United States, in hunting the criminal, in maintaining prisons, in protecting people in their life and property rights, than is spent in the conduct of our national and our forty- eight state governments. The amount is estimated at $15,000,000,000. According to official figures pub- lished last June, New York City, which houses about five per cent of our nation’s population, employs 20,- 000 police who effect 500,000 arrests yearly, or more than 1,500 a day, more than one for every minute of the day and night. Multiply that record nineteen times and you will have some idea of the prevalence of crime in our land. The United States leads the world in the nefarious work of home-de- struction through divorce, with 3,000 courts lending their willing coopera- 10 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION tion, and many of them actually com- peting for the trade. In defiance of the law, and with widespread encouragement, 300 firms are engaged in a business, whose wares are designed to check human and immortal life at its very source. Such wholesale supply, we are told, is exacted by a commensurate demand, for which our easy divorce laws are principally responsible. If the family be Society’s unit — and all agree that it is—what sort of Society is now in the making with the rapidly increasing disintegration of existing family life and the quite general conspiracy against its very inception? A nation will never be- come strong with the encouragement, on the part of the civil government, of practices calculated to weaken it. There existed once powerful nations, now only a memory, whose passing was due to the destruction of family life and self-indulgence under the sanction or with the connivance of the law. American Statesmen and Social Re- FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 11 formers seem never to show concern for the future, but direct all their pro- grams to present-day situations. The prospects of a top-heavy, aged popu- lation, of the old American stock dis- appearing entirely, even of Negro predominance, are not even consider- ed. The statesmen of Europe are ever thinking of the future, for whose sol- idity and glory quantity of a homo- geneous population is regarded as im- perative. The character of motion pictures, long supported by the American pub- lic, offers probably the best barometer of the state of morals in our country. One hundred million people—tanta- mount to the whole population in the United States above six years of age — have been wont to patronize the mov- ies once a week and to applaud the portrayal of crime, of marital infidel- ity, of lax morals among the unmar- ried. EDUCATION IN THE UNITED STATES : With few exceptions only Catholic children are receiving instruction in 12 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION religion and Moral principles in the classroom. This means that the chil- dren among the 70,000,000 unchurch- ed, as well as among the 30,000,000 Protestants, are receiving an educa- tion purely secular and calculated to promote solely their temporal inter- ests. Enrolled in these purely secular schools are more than 2,000,000 Catholic children, for whom parochial schools have not been provided, either because the cost was prohibitive or because they live too widely scattered in rural areas. The natural consequences of this educational policy are a spiritually il- literate people, and an indifferentism in matters religious more harmful to faith than would be actual opposition arising from a large minority group, because opposition would make the believers in the eternal verities more vocal, assertive and militant. Indif- ference to religious truth begets in- difference to the moral law, which, in turn, leads to contempt of all au- thority, of all law, and produces the FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 13 juvenile criminal so conspicuous among us. * Far worse off than the little ones, who were never taught of God, are the youths, Catholic and non-Catholic, who go for a higher education to the average secular college and universi- ty, where influences most prejudicial to religion, morality and spirituality, are admittedly at work. THE PRESS IN THE UNITED STATES The chief sources of information for the generality of people after school days are the metropolitan daily newspapers, which enter nearly every home ; the monthly secular magazines, in which the human interests of the day are treated from both sane and insane viewpoints; the story periodi- cals, and the novel, which cater, for the most part, to the lower instincts of the reader. Not one of these pub- lications is helpful to the cause of re- ligion and morality, while most of them are positively detrimental. When they do not actually promote 14 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION irreligion, they tend to foster skepti- cism, radicalism, an elastic conscience, and certainly cdhfusion in relation to the better things. Today’s paper is primarily a record of yesterday’s strife, sin and crime, as the same have come to the notice of the news-gatherer. In Sunday sup- plements of papers of huge circula- tion are usually exploited the wild theories or loose moral views of per- sons, who are out of all sympathy with Christian ideals. The character of the best-seller story book may be guaged by the condemned motion pic- ture, for this latter is nothing more nor less than the book translated to the screen. If numerous magazines are denied the privilege of the mail ; if some forty may not even be displayed from the shelves of bookshops because of their immoral and carnal appeal, and yet are sufficiently widely read to warrant the continuation of their publication at a time when the common peo- ple have little money to spare, then evidently the press of America is do- FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 15 ing incalculably more harm than good. SOCIAL INJUSTICE IN THE UNITED STATES. Those who voice approval of the New Deal as applied to Economics, as well as those who fear to encourage it lest a bad situation become worse, are agreed that drastic reforms are need- ed in the economic structure within our nation. The wealth of the nation, the land of the nation, are too unevenly divid- ed to warrant general contentment. Industrial profits have been too large, wages too low, rents too steep, taxes, which are always indirectly the bur- den of the laborer and of the small property holder, have been too high. Our country’s banks, which certain- ly should enjoy the confidence of the people, because to them are entrusted the thrift savings of the masses, have been wont, in too many instances, to prey on the funds entrusted to them. Their agents, who should always be trustworthy, have too often, by misre- 16 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION presentation, unloaded on the public all sorts of unsound and almost worthless securities. Mass production of commodities through labor saving machinery, with greed as the propelling motive, has created such a disparity between out- put and consumption that millions of willing and deserving men may not hope to be employed even during prosperous eras. Such a situation must needs breed discontent, which logically manifests itself in rebellion of labor against capital, in communis- tic sympathies, especially among youths whose ambitions are thwarted. Under such circumstances also the ab- normal burden must be imposed on the civil authorities, federal, state and municipal, of housing, feeding and clothing the vast army of the unem- ployed and their families. Base Plans On This Picture This bird’s eye view, this snap- shot picture of American life and habits, is presented to you, as a chart or graph, for the guidance it FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 17 might offer for a program of action to be sponsored by Catholic organiza- tions. But are there any worth while re- sults which Catholics can hope to achieve in the face of influences so powerful, of religious indifferentism so widespread, of un-Christian prac- tices so long-standing, of a century- old, and even now idolized, public school system, of a secular-minded, if not irreligious, press, of an industrial system so entrenched ? Yes, I am confident that prospects are not only favorable, but bright, and I should, of course, very briefly declare why I am optimistic. (1) As to Our Faith: The people of the United States and of the world have quite generally accepted the principle on which our faith rests, the principle of leadership and authority. Do they not accept this principle in every other field, no- tably for light and guidance in the darkness and chaos produced by the 18 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION present economic situation? Why should they not be even more favor- able to the acceptance of the same principle in the realm of religious be- lief and practice, especially since it must be clear that knowledge of the divine will can be learned with cer- tainty only on authority? They cer- tainly would not be following half as blindly as they now are if they heed- ed the voice of the only one who even pretends to speak with divine author- ity. (2) As to Morality: Christian ethical standards com- mand the respect of all whose hearts are clean. Of the desire of the American heart to be clean, we had ample evidence in the almost univer- sal response to the demand of the Catholic Hierarchy that the motion picture may no longer debauch our youth. Do not millions of non-Catho- lics approve the attitude of the Catho- lic Church towards Divorce, Birth Prevention by artificial contrivances, FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 19 indecent Magazines, Intemperance, Social Injustice? Credit people of whatever envir- onment or antecedents with a modi- cum of intelligence, and you will be disposed to believe that they would accept the truth that social practices should be'controlled by norms of mor- ality rather than that moral stand- ards grow out of social practices. (3) As to Education: While the American people are wedded to the idea of a public school system as such, and to the idea that, because we have separation of Church and State, the public educational sys- tem must be purely secular, yet they practically all see the need of sup- plementary effort on the part of the churches, on the part of various or- ganizations and clubs, to train the character of school children. What is the purpose of the Boy Scout Move- ment, of the Girl Scout Movement, of Vacation Bible Schools, of week-day religious instruction outside of school 20 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION hours, of the Y. M. C. A., of the Y. W. C. A., and many other organiza- tions, of regular radio broadcasts over a national hook-up designed to interest adults in guiding the morals of youth? Do these activities not offer evi- dence sufficient that non-Catholics quite generally subscribe to the Catholic principle on which the pa- rochial school system is based? The vast majority of Americans seem not, however, to be convinced, as the fath- er of our country was convinced, that morality must be based on religious principles, that consistent moral and religious practice must have religious belief as a foundation. Our political leaders tell us that they are waging war against the de- pression, against the old industrial system, against crime. Then why does it never occur to them to improve and strengthen the official public training schools of youth by intro- ducing the moral law and forming the consciences of the future citizens FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 21 in accordance with it, as. the best preventive of crime? However, I believe that our non- Catholic brethren, by the millions, would support a movement, not init- iated by Catholics, to apply the New Deal to the schools; also the code of the universally recognized greatest moral influence of the ages—Christ. Why should it be assumed that a New Deal should be applied to every- thing else except education? Why should the contrary not rather be as- sumed, namely, that an educational plan one hundred years old should be adjusted to the needs of our day? When the Horace Mann policy was adopted nearly a century ago, ours was a church-going, a spiritually- minded people—but it is no more. While our civil government recog- nizes the right of parents to send their children to other than State schools, it penalizes those who do so by demanding that they carry a dou- ble burden of school taxation, yes, in some states, a triple burden. It is 22 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION probably the only instance in which the State returns to us evil for good bestowed. If the United States crime bill is $15,000,000,000 annually and it could Be reduced materially by getting religion into the child’s life, would it not be real business econo- my to recognize, at least on an equal basis, the schools which actually in- still religious and moral principles? One-fifth of the money needed to pay the nation’s crime bill would pay its entire school bill. (4) As to the Press: Would not consistency in the American people demand that they oppose the exploitation of crime and of filth in print as well as on the screen? Would not even those who have little religion themselves prefer to see their children imbued with rev- erence for God, for religion, for those in authority, whether religious or civil? Would they not much prefer that the daily newspapers should be on the side of religion and morality FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 23 than on the side of agnosticism and infidelity? Would they not like to think of the editor of their local paper as sincere and honest and helpful rather than as controlled by political and commercial interests? Would they not like to read more news about the good which numer- ous organizations and individuals are doing, to counterbalance somewhat the news of crime and dishonesty? (5) As to Social Justice. In this field no constructive leader- ship is even known outside of the Catholic Church, whose economic program must be sound because it is based on the eternal principles of jus- tice and morality. Nothing has come out of a hundred conferences, nation- al and international, attended by those who are reputed to be the ex- pert economists of their respective countries. They seem to be as much in a maze and in the dark concerning the causes of our economic ills and of their cure as the ordinary man of th<* 24 FIELDS FOE CATHOLIC ACTION street. They fail because their theo- ries are purely materialistic, born of a philosophy which is materialistic, a philosophy which takes no account of human rights, but only of selfish ends, which identifies might with right, the power to control with the right to control. During the past fifty years the Popes alone have presented for the consideration of humanity sound economic programs. Encyclicals of Leo XIII and of Pius XI have proffer- ed light to people in darkness, but the selfish captains of industry, on whom the light was principally turned, re- mained so enveloped in the fog of their own materialistic minds that they could not see it. Today most of them—and many good among them — feel the industrial depression far more keenly than those who served them with insufficient benefit to them- selves. But the attitude of the American public towards the economic philo- sophy of the Catholic Church is favor- able. This is evident from the mil- FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 25 lions, who manifest their interest in the national broadcasts of a Catholic priest, and who have most recently approved of the selection of Catholic clergymen as mediators in disputes between capital and labor. Although economics are only in- directly related to religion, they so affect the welfare of every man, wo- man and child in our nation, that the Church must take cognizance of them, and throw her influence on the side of social justice. The outstanding sociologists of our country today are Catholics, and the Catholic people should become ac- quainted with their sound teachings, and do their utmost to acquaint the non-Catholics of their respective com- munities with them. HOW CAN WE IMPROVE CONDITIONS? Granting the existence of the evils I have outlined, granting the amena- bility of the American people to the correction of these evils, the next 26 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION consideration must be: How can our Catholic people, a minority group amid our general population, do much for their correction? By organized apostolic zeal. Any movement promoted among 100,000,- 000, or even 300,000,000, people by 20,000,000 apostles should certainly accomplish wonders. It is not power we lack, but the organization which gives power to a crusade. Avowed enemies of Christianity were never numerous, but they have often suc- ceeded, even in our day, in achieving the seemingly impossible, because they organized and became intensely active. It must be remembered that in a few states we constitute one-half the total population; that in most large cities, east of the Mississippi and north of the Mason and Dixon Line, we re- present from one-third to one-half of all the people. Would anybody defend the theory that in such states and in such cities, where one-half of all the people in the United States live, the Catholic body, imbued with definite FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 27 religious convictions, committed to a definite moral code, and organized behind a definite Catholic Action pro- gram, could not by their earnestness, their zeal, their prayers and their ex- ample, do much to stimulate interest in their faith, in decent morals, in loftier social ideals, .in sounder econ- omic standards? Follow Their Example If the Catholics of every communi- ty imitated Narberth, Pa.; if they emulated the example of the Catholic Laymen’s Association of Georgia; if Catholic women everywhere sought out the apostates, as did the Diocesan Council of Women of Mobile; if all Catholic men had the zeal of the fol- lowers of St. Vincent de Paul; if every Catholic family supported, read, and then passed on to Protestant neighbors an instructive Catholic pa- per; if every Catholic signed and lived up to the Pledge of the Legion of Decency; if Catholics were united against political corruption, against abuses sanctioned under our new 28 FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION liquor laws; if they all strove to be “the light of the world; the salt of the earth,” soldiers of Jesus Christ, co-workers with the Hierarchy in the Apostolate of Catholic Action; if, in a word, they insisted on leading in- stead of following, how could we doubt that the ynited States would, with the grace of God, be won for the Kingdom of Christ, and, in addition, become a land of peace and happiness and prosperity? Our Ills Are World Ills The Religious, Moral, Educational , Press and Social Justice needs of the United States are equally the needs of the world, and can be met only by a world-teacher, to whom the interests of all people are equally dear, whose heart has no national preference, who holds a divine commision to feed the entire flock of the universal Kingdom of Christ, who has often restored ord- er out of political and economic chaos, often returned peace to nations. If he, like his Master, has been in the world without the world knowing FIELDS FOR CATHOLIC ACTION 29 him, with the world actually repud- iating him, then is it not the duty of Catholics to make him truly known and recognized and heeded? Never did the world so much need the Catholic Church as today. Na tions everywhere need sympathy, but they do not receive it from one an- other; they conspire to injure one another. They need spiritual guid- ance, but “to whom should they go who has the words of eternal life”? We boast of the number of our conversions, but Central Africa had three times as many as we counted in the United States last year. China had more last year than we, so also did India. The impetus to compara- tively few of our conversions was giv- en by the Catholic laity, most of whom, it would seem, could have one conversion to their credit every year if they were true to their profession.
