Catholic Bishop
Writes Catechism
On Race Relations
By LOUIS CASSELS
United Frets International
The Most Rev. Albert L.
Fletcher, Catholic bishop of
Little Rock, Ark., has come
up with a novel solution to a
problem that concerns church
leaders of all denominations
in the North as well as the
South.
The problem is how to get
across, to thinking adults, the
full import of Christian teach
ings about race relations.
Bishop Fletcher's solution
was to write a catechism.
His newly-published "Ele
mentary Catholic Catechism
on the Morality of Segrega
tion and Racial Discrimina
tion" resembles superficially
the catechisms which have
been used for centuries in the
religious training of children.
Jt is cast in the customary
format of questions and an
swers. But it i written on the
adult level, and is Intended
primarily for use in adult
discussion groups. .
Catechisms are supposed to
be forthright, and Bishop
Fletcher has been true to that
tradition. His little 17-page
booklet minces no words.
It states at the outset:
"Segregation as we know it
in Arkansas is immoral."
Why is it immoral?
"Because it discriminates
unjustly and uncharitably
against human beings on the
basis of race alone."
Here are some of the other
questions and answers in the
catechism:
Q. What ' is the church's
stand on racism?
A. The church condemns
racism as contrary to its
teaching that all men are in
herently and naturally equal,
and have the same dignity as
children of God; are derived
from the same first human
parents and are redeemed by
the same Savior.
Q. Does not history show
that certain races and nation
alities are superior to others?

In the morning worship
the pastor, the Rev. Escil
JHiscr, will speak onihc sub
ject How Truth May Be
Trampled."
A. Certain races as a whole
may, at a particular time in
history, excel other races and
nationalities as a whole, in
material, intelluctual or social
advancement: But in spite of
these superior developments,
or lack of them, the church
has always taught that there
is no fundamental difference
between the races, which
would make one race intrin
sically superior or inferior to
other races.
Q. What is the habit of
racial prejudice?
A. ... a vice which inclines
a person to prejudge a race
or any of its members on the
basis of race alone, without
considering existing merits or
demerits.
Q. When is racial prejudice
sinful? .
A. It is a sin when a per
son willfully gives consent to
a feeling of racial prejudice
or hatred, or by deliberate
thoughts, desires, words, ac
tions or omissions which the
vice of prejudice inspires.
Q. Can a person inclined to
racial prejudice completely
overcome, by an act of his
will, any racial feelings he
may have?
A. He cannot destroy this
feeling completely by a single
act of his will. To root out
this feeling will require time
and many repeated acts of the
will . . .
Q. What is the most power
ful directive a Christian man
or woman has to practice
racial justice and charily?
A. Our Lord's own teach
ing by word and example.

PASTOR RESIGNS
Williams - The Rev. and
Mrs. Virgil Terry have re
signed from William Commu
nity church and plan to go to
Happy Camp, Calif. They will
leave in mid-September. The
Terrys have spent seven years
here. Carl Matthews from
Turlock, Calif., will be at
Williams Community church
on Aug. 14 as a candidate for
the oastorat.e here.
The tongue is described In
James 3 as an active influence
in our lives, either for good or
bad. If we control our tongue
it is an effective instrument for
great good. Unrestrained It Is
like a destructive fire.
It becomes a ruthless killer,
burning the ties of friendship;
bringing envy, hatred, and
jealousy.
How often does the reputa
tion of some helpless individual
crumble and collapse because
some one's tongue has been un
bridled. If any one among you seem
to be religious and bridleth not
his tongue, but deceiveth his
onw heart, this man's religion
Is vain. James 1:26.
