Unem~ment deplored
'Unacceptable' WASHINGTON (NC) - The
teaching of Pope John Paul II calls for "fundamental reforms in our (U.S.) economy," said Ronald Krietemeyer, director of the U.S. Catholic Conference's Office of Domestic Social De-' velopment, in his office's 1982 Labor Day statement.
A "free market economic system" that assumes "a permanent pool of unemployeC:l workers" is "totally unacceptable from the perspective of the church's teaching on economic justice." Krietemeyer said.
He focused his 3,000-word 1982 Labor Day Statment on the "profound challenge" of Pope John Paul's encyclical, "On Human Work," to the U.S. economic system and its reliance on unemployment as a factor built into the system.
The anriual' Labor Day Statement is published by the USCC office headed by Krietemeyer, but is not a formal statement of the U.S. bishops or the USCC.
While unemployment is at its worst point since the Great Depression, many people seem to be accepting high unemployment as a necessary means of wring
-ing inflation out of the economy," wrote Krietemeyer. "It is considered by s~me to be a normal feature of our modem society . . . Such thinking is total~
ly unacceptable from 'the pers-' pective of the church's teaching on economic justice. Work is a basic human right."
The bishops' domestic social development director deplored "a growing anti-government sentiment and a move toward weakening the public role in managing the economy" in the United States. .
"As church encyclicals have suggested and as history has indicated, a free market economic

students will enter diocesan classrooms on Wednesday, according to records of the Diocesan Department of Education. The figure is up about 300 from last year and comprises 7400 grade schoolers and 3380 high school students, said department officials.
The need for values is what brings students to Catholic schools said officials of the National Catholic Educational Association in a start-of-school story carried by the National Catholic News Service.
. "Values and financing are the really critical areas that are getting the attention now," according to School Sister of Notre Dame Sister Carleen Reck, NCCA elementary education director.
Sister Reck said parochial schools !lave "a special mission, a unique call. Parents want something different from the school d9wn the block; that's why they're paying tuition."
Father Robert J. Yeager,
NCEA vice president for development, said Catholic education "is continuing to sell well" in difficult economic times because it offers "an opportunity to really do some learning. It's teaching people how to explore things as they go on in life."
Financial problems hit both public and non-public schools hard this year. Federal funds fOI education programs, which makl: up eight percent of school spending nationwide, have been cut an average of 20 percent. Parochial schools receive some federally funded services through the public school districts.
Education associations estimaie that up to 55,500 public school teachers may lose their jobs this fall, .but both Sister Reck and Father Yeager said that with parochial schools' enrollment holding steady they doubted many teachers there would b~ faced with layoffs.
Parochial school teachers face a. different economic problem.

Mother Teresa to the rescue
BEIRUT, Lebanon (NC) Red Cross officials praised Mother Teresa of Calcutta for her help in evacuating 37 retarded and handicapped children from a bomb-damaged mental hospital in 'Beirut recently.
She saw the problem, fell to her knees and prayed for a few seconds and then she rattled off a list of supplies she needed," said one Red Cross official who helped in the rescue operation.
The hospital, Dar Al-Ajaza Islamia Mental Hospital, had been hit at least five times; there was no water, and the two top floors had been blasted apart.
John DeSalis, head of the international Red Cross delegation in Lebanon said that Mother Teresa "was the answer to a prayer. We told her, 'You must come and see these children,' She came, she saw them and said: 'I'll take them.' ..
St. John Paul I?. BELLUNO, Italy (NC) - Resi
dents of the village of Canale d' Agordo in the ~elluno region of northern'ltaly are petitioning the Vati~an for the beatification of their native son, Pope John Paul I.
In his 34-day pontificate in 1978, Albino Luciani became known as "the smiling pope." Visitors to the tiny church in his hometown are now invited to sign a register asking that the former patriarch of Venice be beatified.
To date, 100,000 signatures have been collect~. They will soon be presented to the current pontiff, Pope John Paul II, probably on Sept. 28, the fourth, anniversary of the death of the man he ha~ called his "very beloved predecessor."
'Each day, dozens of tour buses crowd the tiny square in front of the church, now called the "Piazza Papa Luciani."
Beatification, a process which normally takes many years, is a
_ preliminary step toward canonization, involving investigation of the candidate's life and writings and certification of at least two miracles worked through his or her intercession.
Bolivians speak LA PAZ, Bolivia (NC) - At
'Bolivia's first-ever the, national convention of lay Catholics, delegates complained that two years of military rule have been marked by corruption and drug trafficking. In a statement released at the end of the convention, blame was put upon international economic interests as partly reo sponsible for the poverty of the majority of BolivJans. The statement caIled for popular participation in the shaping of a future government.

Diaconate accepting applications The diocesan office of the Per
manent Diaconate announces that interviews for the third class of prospective candidates began Sept. 1. In a letter to pastors, Father John Moore, program director, indicated that pre-application interviews will continue through Nov. 30. Men interested in the program who feel they are qualified should contact a parish priest or the office of the Permanent Diaconate for further information, he said.
At present 12 men are preparing for ordination as permanent deacons on Nov. 6 in ceremonies at St. Mary's Cathedral. Presently 13 ordained permanent deacons serve the Fall River diocese.
The diocesan diaconal pro. gram is an ongoing four-year formation period of study and prayer, open to married and single men whose life is presently in some way a 'sign of service to the church community. If married, a man cannot seriously consider application to the program without the consent and support of his wife and family.
The first stages of the screen· ing process, noted Father Moore, are of necessity involved and far reaching, since the permanent diaconate is not a mere reward for services rendered but an im· portant aspect of the totality of Holy Orders.
In that
this diocese it is required prospective candidates

Sister Claire Funeral services were held
Tuesday in St. Louis for Sister Claire of St. Alexis, 77, a Fall 'River native who was for 51 years a member of the Little Sisters of the Poor.
The former Annette Boulay was the daughter of the late Wil. fred and Marie (St. Germain) Boulay. She entered religious life in Boston and served the aged poor in Kansas City, Mo., and Chicago as well as in St. Louis.
She is survived by a sister, Mrs. Albert Archambault of Fall River, and by a niece and nephew. Interment was in St. Louis.

In today's church, the diaconal vocation is to service as well as total commitment to God. It is a 'call to share in a community that will be recognized by all of God's people by its marks of service and prayer. Those with a real desi,re and ability to offer service to the Church will find the diaconate a challenge for the future.
In the Fall River diocese, permanent deacons fulfill a variety of ministries, relating to the whole of the church community. They may administer baptism, witness marriages, officiate at funerals, distribute communion and preach the word of God. In furthering the church's mission of service, they' will develop ministries to the sick in hospitals and nursing homes, to the aged, to prisoners, to students, to the poor, to the black and Hispanic communities and to immigrants newly arrived in the diocese.
Men seeking this vocational 'challenge may request further infonnation from Rev. John F. Moore, Director of the Permanent Diaconate Program, Diocese of Fall River, P.O. Box 7, Fall River, MA 02722.

Jordan next? By Jeff Endrst
AMMAN, Jordan (NC)-Events in Lebanon have placed Jordan in a peculiar and potentially dangerous situation.
The forced withdrawal of the Palestine Liberation Organization's guerrillas froin Beirut, Lebanon, is seen as an indirect vindication of King Hussein's own war against PLO militants, who threatened in 1970 to tum Jor· dan into a civil war battlefield such as eventually developed in Lebanon. But now that the PLO has lost Lebanon as an operational base against Israel, Jordan looks with growing apprehension at unmistakable signs that it is likely to become the focal point of the next crisis in the Middle East.
There is a pervasive feeling in Jordan that the country is headed for hard times. It 'stems from high-level Israeli pronouncements on what steps the government of Prime Minister Menachern ,Begin hopes to take once the situation in Lebanon is stabilized.
Officials in Jordan fear that Israel will eventually sign -a peace treaty with the newly formed Christian-dominated government in Beirut. That, they feel, would evitably ,lead to reo newed Israeli pressure on Jordan to follow suit and accept a settlrment of the Palestinian question far short of the PLO demands for a Palestinian state.
Speaking of the situation of the Catholic church in Jordan, Archbishop Saba Youakim of Pe
tra, head of the 'Melkite Catholics in the country, said the Vatican is not neglecting Middle East Christians.
"Rome leaves the local churches in this area alone to work out their problems according to real circumstances and needs. When the' problem is too big for us to handle alone, we have adequate means of periodic consultations through the apostolic delegate in Jerusalem," he said.

th,e moorina...., Labor's Sad Day
Labor- Day is usually a time of grand hoopla, bringing the summer season to a ceiebratory· close. .
This year· it's a mere murmur, routinely completing a series of dull days.
Even Mother Nature has pushed us hurriedly through this so-called festive time with a premature taste of fall. It seems everything in ·the 1982 labor movment is going askew.
Many problems now ~aced by unions seem, on the surface at least, to be attributable to Reaganomics. There is some truth in everything. Labor feels for many reasons that it has· no friend in the current administration. High interest rates, a volatile market and soaring unemployment have combined to sink the nation into a prolonged recession.
Another fact to be considered is that a woeful Secretary of Labor must spend more time fighting personal court battles than those of the worker. .
If the administration support of workers' rights 'is flawed, so too is that .of contemporary unionism.
Inexplicably, union leadeJ.:s have been like the proverbial ostrich with its head in the ground when it has come to matters of computerization' and automation. Rather than reali~ing that modem technology can benefit the worker, they have constantly and deliberately pictured ,scientific advances as deadly foes of labor.
Unlike their Japanese counterparts, American union leaders over the past" decade have attempted to convince workers that all this "new stuff" is antilabor, antijob and antiunion.
Sales.of...foreign cars to the American public should, however, definitively put to rest such narrow and defeatist attitudes. Once and for all this Labor Day, American labor should acknowledge that the computer' and the robot are here. to stay, that they are in actuality the worker's be.st friend in that they develop new jobs and new technologies and will eventually bring millions of new workers into the marketplace.
The original goals of Samuel Gompers, the Knights of Labor and the American Federation of Labor were to. help the American worker throw off the chains of injustice and inequity, to free children from slavery and to eradicate the horrors of industrial working conditions.
To some extent, these objectives have been achieved, but much remains to be accomplished in, for example, the areas of migrant and sweatshop labor, undocumented workers and illegal imports.
. For labor to leave these and other such critical concerns unaddressed will serve only to undermine the entire structure of American unionism.
As we celebrate Labor Day, 1982, may it prove to be a time when the labor movement will once more move. Labor can .indeed enjoy a, new dawn and a new day if it will stop looking backwards.
Labor must accept the challenge of the' time, not with the trite slogans. of yesteryear, but with words of promise and posaibility for the days to come.
With rehewed spirit and motivation, the American labor movement can once again be a sign of hope for the working man and woman, not just a cynical whisper from days gone by.

On Human Work .The following excerpts are
from Pope John- Paul II's encyclical letter, Laborem Exercens (On Human Work), issued last Sept. 15. The pontiff, in youth a laborer in a stone quarry and a chemical plant, declares that work holds the key to social problems and that it is, along with prayer, the "way of sanetlfication."
Definition of Work
Through work man must earn his daily bread and contribute to the continuai advance of science and technology and, above all, to elevating unceasingly the cui
. tural and moral level of the society within he lives in community with those who belong to the same family.
And work means any activity by man, whether manual or intellectual, whatever its nature or circumstances, it means any hu'man activity .that can and must be recognized' as work, in the midst of all the many activities of which man is capable and to which he is pre-disposed by his very pature, by virtue of humanity itself. -
Man is made to be in the visible universe an image and likeness of God himself, and he is placed in it in order to subdue the earth. From the beginning, therefor~, he is called to work.
Work is one of the characteristics that distinguish man from the rest of the creatures, wRose activity for sustaining their lives cannot be called work. Only man is capable of work and only man works, at the same time by work occupying his existence on earth. Thus, work bears a particular mark of man and of humanity, the mark of a person operating within Ii community of persons. And the mark d~cides its interior characteristics; in a sense, it constitutes its very nature.
Constituent of Life
~an's life is built up every day from work; from work it derives its· specific dignity. But at the same time work contains·the unceasing measure of human toil and suffering, and also of the harm and injustice whichpenetrate deeply into social life within individual nations and on the international level.
Constant F8ctor In ,the midst of all these pro
cesses - those of the diagnosis of objective social reality and also those of the church's teaching in the sphere of the complex and many-sided social question - the question of human work naturally appears many times. This issue is, in a way a constant factor both. of social life and of the church's teaching.
In fact, the" Church's social teaching finds its source in Sacred Scripture, beginning with the Book of Genesis, and especially in the Gospel and the writings of the Apostles. From the beginning, it was part of the Church's teaching, her concept of. man and life in society, and' especially the social morality which she worked ,out according to the needs of the different ages.
This traditional patrimony was then inherited and develop584 MAIN STREET - RTE.28A .ed by the teaching of the popes on the modern "social question," WEST FALMOUTH, MASS.

begillning with the encyclical, Rerum Novarum. In this context, study of the question of work, as we have seen, has continually been brought up to date while maintaining that Christian basis
_of truth which can be called ageless..
Work the Key While in the present document
we return to' this question once more - without, .however, any intention of touching on all the topics that concern it.- this is not merely in order to gather together and repeat what is already contained in the Church's teaching. It is, rather, in order to highlight - perhaps more than has been done before - the fact that human work is a key, probably the essential key, to the whole social question, if we try to' see that question really from the point of view of man's good. And, if the solution - or, rather, the gradual solution - of the social question, which keeps coming up and becomes ever more complex, must be sought in the direction of "making life more human," then the key, namely human work, acquires fu!1damental and decisive importance.

Family Night A weekly ,.t-home program .or.families
sponsored by the Diocesan Office of Family Ministry OPENING PRAyeR
Summer is over and now we look forward to another new
season full of changes. Thank you, dearest Father, for all the joys we experienced these last few months of summer and inspire us to use this new season wisely. Thank,you for this Family Night and bless this time we have to be together. Amen.
TO THINK ABOUT Summer has passed and the
months ahead are waiting to be filled like the empty pages of a notebook. Change continues in all of us. During Labor Day week we can reflect on how many changes have taken place in our lives because of the labors of others. The actions of each person affect many others. By our actions we change others as well as ourselves.
ACTIVITY IDEAS Young Families ~ave a family style show.
Each family member find three different types of outfits to wear. Mom and Dad make a special effort to wear some older fashions. As each person models his or her outfits, talk about how they effect change in ihe person.

pope. "That would be considered a
bit offensive ina Moslem country," the archbishop said. But he hastened to add that King Hussein is a "great supporter" of Christian churches.
Hospital system CINCINNATI (NC) - Twenty
eight Sisters of'Charity have asked two hospitals, Good Samaritan in Cincinnati and Good Samaritan in. Dayton, to recohsider participation in the government's Civilian-Military Contingency Hospital System.
The CMCHS, instituted in 1980, is a government effort to obtain commitments from civilian hospitals near airports to care for U.S. war casualties.
The Department of Defense has presented the plan in 'connection with conventional warfare, but critics have said it is a step in preparing for nuclear war. ".
The 28 nuns asked if the plan was "congruent with the Sisters of Charity's corporate stand against nuclear war.
"The Catholic Health Association is neutral on the plan, leaving participation decisions up to CHA members.
For example, how he or she feels or would act wearing these clothes. If different types of clothing create changes in us,what other things in our lives make us change? The more ideas the better. What is good about change? What is bad about change?
Middle Year ~amilies Answer and complete the fol
lowing and reflect together: 1. What change this fall am I
most eagerly awaiting? Why? 2. What changes in Qur family
have been difficult this year? 3. Changes I enjoy in my life
.are ... 4. I find change difficult when
5. I wish to change ..' . in my life this fall.
Adult Families Read aloud Ecclesiastes 1:1-11,
then read Matthew 5:14-16. Answer the above questions for middle years families. .
Jordan ne;xt? , Hussein,-who has been on the
throne for 30 years, attended Catholic schools in Jordan.
Jordan has freedom of worship but Christians consider it unwise to proselytize. Children of the Moslom elite are sent to Catholic schools in expectation of a better education. Christian churches cannot teach Christianity in Moslem sc~ools. There is one ·Christian in Hussein's cabinet and quite a few Christians have reached high levels of the civil service.
Christians compose about 10 percent, of Jordan's 2.3 million population. Their numbers are' shrinking, mostly through emi· gration to the United States. The Melkite church, an Eastern· rite of the Catholic ChUrch, has 45,000 members. The Latin-rite church in. Jordan has' 40,000 members. The other main Christian group is the Greek Orthodox Church with 150,000 members.
Economically, Melkite Catholics are either 'very rich or very poor, said Archbishop Youakim. The Melkites have 10 churches in. 'Jordan, four of them in the capital of Amman; 18 priests; and five seminarians.
The Greek Orthodox Church has 25 seminarians and the Latinrite has 30.
The shortage of priests promotes ecumenism among Christians. There are only 40 Christian families in and around the Red Sea port city of Aquaba, so the three churches rotate in at-

Weston founder dies at priory
WESTON,. Vt. (NC) - Benedictine Father Leo A. Rudloff, retired abbot of the Dormition Abbey in Jerusalem, died Aug. 17 at Weston Priory, the small Benedictine monastery he founded 29 years ago. He was 80 years old.
Abbot Rudloff was' a member of the Vatican Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity from 1962-1973 and was an advisor to the Secretariat for Promoting Christian-Jewish Relations of the 'National Conference of Catholic Bishops. He helped produce the S'econd Vatican Council's document on the relationship betw~en
Christians 4nd Jews.
In 1981 the abbot published an essay critical of Archbishop Ailarion Capucci, who had been convicted of smuggling weapons .

Obje,ction Dear Editor:
CHD support Dear Editor:
I wish to thank the people of the Diocese of Fall River for their continuing and generous support of the Campaign for Human Development. A check for $42,500
'has been received here at the national office. This. amount is the % portion to be distributed nationally to self·help projects designed to remove the causes of poverty.
This year 610 funding proposals requesting $35 mi\llion were received. These have been reviewed and prioritize~ by national staf(, the CHD Diocesan Directors, and the CHD National Committee of 40 people representing all geographic regions and the ethnic/racial makeup of the United St~tes. This year we had about $6.5 million to fund about 195 self-help groups. The Ad Hoc Committee of 13 bishops met on June 12, 1982, and gave their final approval to recommendations made by the National Committee.
Since 1970, the Diocese of 'Fall River has received seven national CHD grants totaling $213,800 for a, re,t~rn of 63%.
The "contiriu'ed generosity of the people of your diocese fulfills the spirit of the ':V0rds of Pope John Paul II:
"This is the pure and simple mission of· the Gospel.
The Church would not be faithful to the Gospel if it were not close to the poor and if it did not defend their rights." (L'Oservatore Romano, 8/2/81) CHD provides an opportunity
for us to live as Jesus did, in solidarity with the poor, the wounded, the marginated, and those considered "least" in our society.
On behalf of the entire CHD family, I express sincere thanks also to Bishop Daniel A. Cronin, and to Rev. Peter N. Graziano, your Diocesan Dir~ctor.

'It was indeed a pleasant surprise to see in recent editions of The Anchor such conservative articles as those by Father Harrington and Ma~t Kane, who quotes Michael Novak (Anchor, Aug. 6).
It allows us to hear something other than the very liberal harangues of Mary McGrory.
My thanks to all who make it possible for such articles to be published.
Anne M. Williams E. Sandwich
P.S. Wouldn't it be lovely if "The other side of the coin" could be a weekly article?
I read your·Anchor magazine of Aug. 20 (as I always do) and I object 100 percent to your editorial. You really told your readers to vote against Senators Kennedy and Tsongas. It doesn't make much sense to me.
I always thought The Anchor was not a political publication. I regret to say that it is. You remember Father Drinan, why he got out of politics?
As for myself, I'm 100 percent antiabortion, as you are, but we cannot make two senators ignore 50 percent of the voters.

Forhand.icapped Dear Editor:
In reading "Know Your Faith" for Aug. 13, I was especially interested in the column titled {'A very, special home." .
I have just returned from a retreat animated by Jean Vanire at Sacred Heart Seminary, Detroit. There I met the executive' director of Misericordia Home (described in the Anchor article), Sr. Rosemary Connelly, RSM, who shared her expertise with me to assist our current effort to bring L'Arche to Massachusetts.
Through the caring and generosity of the LaSalette Fathers in Ipswich we are opening a residential community in the spirit of Jean Vanier's L'Arche (a prograqt offering permanent homes to handicapped adults).
It is the hope of Irenicon, Inc. founder of this community on the North Shore, that the Southeast/ Cape Cod area will also welcome L'Arche.
I would be interested to hear from any parents or concerned citizens who would like to join our effort (tel. 335-5960, weekdays; 888-6033, weekends).

Threats told WASHINGTON (NC)
Father Robert Stark, a U.S. missionary in central Nicaragua, said opponents of the Nicaraguan government have threatened to kill him and his parishioners if they cooperate with government development programs. Father Stark was in Washington to talk with congressmen and human rights groups concerning conditions among the 30,000 peasants scattered in 33 villages throughout his mission. Father Stark said during a raid by "counter-revolutionaries," as nat~ves call them, food, hunting rifles, and machetes belonging to the villagers were seized and people were ordered not to help Sandinista programs.

Candlelight vigil in Stoughton -
Stoughton protests STOUGHTON, Mass (NC)
About 3,000 Stoughton area residents, led by Catholic, Jewish and Protestant clergymen, held a candlelight vigil in Town Square to protest a federal court order allowing an adult bookstore to open in the square.
"We have come here to pray for the reversal of a federal judge's decision allowing an adult bookstore in our town/' Father Romeo D. Levasseur, assistant pastor of St., James Church, told the crowd Aug. 24.
The previous week U.S. District Judge W. Arthur Garrity Jr. had ruled that a refusal by the town of 27,000 to allow' the store to open would violate the store owners' freedom of speech.
"We, the citizens of Stoughton, are up in arms," Father Levasseur said to the people in the square, some of whom were wearing T-shirts reading "SOS" (Save Our Stoughton) or holding signs reading "Stamp Out'Smut,"
, "To put it in the language of the street," Father Levasseur said, "we are mad as hell. We want no smut iIII our town. The' harm done to our beloved community is irreparable. We want it stopped yesterday,"
Store opponents argue that a high school, junior high and elementary school are located within a half mile of the store. They also contend that town property values will be lowered and Stoughton's image will be damaged.
The store owners, Wayne Lightower of Providence and Donald Tortalani of New Bedford, could not be reached for comment.
"Our goal is to get the store
out," said Paul Tiberian, chairman of the Save Our Stoughton group, which pickets the store daily and has had downtown merchants place anti-bookstore posters in their windows.
Stoughton selectmen have voted to spend $10,000 in legal fees to appeal the judge's order. "We will go to the Supreme Court if necessary," said Selectman Charles Yaitanes.
Town counsel Leonard Kopelman, who argued the case before Garrity, said he was' not surprised by the decision. "I had advised the selectmen," he said, "that the judge would uphold the bookstore, that he would not be able to stop them. I knew, just as the judge knew, what the Supreme Court, has said on such issues. The judge had no choice,"
But town manager Patrick J. Hyland disagreed. "A lot of citizens," he said, "feel the protection of the rights of the bookstore owner is infringing on what they consider to be their right to live in a community which does not have this type of establishment, which they feel is detrimental to the community and to the welfare of their family and children,"
Visitor heads PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island
(NC) ~ Father John W. Hunt ,has been named executive director of The Visitor, archdiocesan newspaper, and Gloria Barone is the new editor. The appointments were announced by Bishop Louis Gelineau, publisher.
Ms. Barone had been acting editor since the resignation of Robert Baldwin in March.

"ONLY THE LONELY" is the what it once was. The gradual first chart hit for the Los An- death of a friendship may be geles~based band, The Motels. more difficult than an abrupt,
It describes a relationship that "It's over." has become an empty shadow of Death by neglect is like having
an illness that cannot be diag· nosed: We know something is wrong but not what or why.
The song speaks of a dying relationship's chief symptom, lingering loneliness. Acts which once demonstrated' closeness now hurt because of the emptio ness. "We walked the loneliest mile, we smile without any style, we kiss altogether wrong
'no intention." Obviously, the singer feels a
lot of pain. Yet anyone who falls in love should know that feelings can change.
When we are first in love, powerful feelings often surface. We feel very close to the other person and life-seems filled with purpose and meaning.
However we caimot continually feel so intensely. There will be times when we do not feel so close to the person we love, even when we' are committed: to him or her in marriage.
Every relationship has mo· ments of loneliness, but this doesn't' mean that something is wrong. Healthy, loving relationships go through a natural cycle of closeness and separateness.
Hiding such feelings only deepens the loneliness and increases the emotional distance from the other person. Part of a loving relationship is to risk sharing feelings.
Love is powerful, but it is not magic. It needs to be nurtured.

Sister Reck said that many teachers have told her they like the value-oriented environment of the parochial schools but they don't know how much longer they can live on salaries as low as $7,000 or $8,000 a year. But to pay teachers more usually means increasing the parents' burden by raising tuition, she said.
She said she sees tuition tax credits as "a way of helping families while ,we help teachers," Tuition tax credits would give parents a tax credit for part of the tuition they pay to send their children to non-public schools.
But tuition tax credits will not come to the rescue, at least 'not during this fall. As the school ~ear started tuition tax legislation remained mired in the Senate Finance Committee.
The question for now, said Sister Reck, is can people ho'id on long enough until things get better, until things pick up?"
The answer, she said, "seems to say enrollment is holding firm, in spite of the lower birth rate and tight finances."
Father Yeager said the key is "doing more with less money .. .. We need to use what we have well." Schools are lookIng for ways to use all of their resources intelligently to avoid raising tuit\on.
"When E~ F. Hutton talks, Catholic schools listen," Father Yeager said, explaining that the investment securities company will be providing schools with "improved .money management tools," such as a money market fund.
For parents the tighter financial situation means "& lot more parental concern - the dollar they're spending on their child's education is perhaps a more meaningful dollar than a year ago," Father Yeager said.
But parents continue to spend those dollars because' Catholic ,schools offer values, ~iscipline
and "the assurance that you will come away having learned some'thing and will have learned how to Jearn."
