'he bishop pointed to Whittaker ambers' conclusion that the real •ngth of communism is the weak- •s and shortcomings of the other igious faiths, and told the audience t as long as they keep us refuting them then we will be kept from the constructive part of our program." He continued, "In previous centuries when there were monarchies the rulers had most of the responsibilities . . . but in a democracy, the citizen is the king, he has the responsibili- ties."

Cushing of Boston announced last Sunday the plans for expansion of the Archbishop Cushing School of Theology for Laity in Boston. His Excellency announced that classes beginning next September would be given at Emmanuel College, at double the enrollment. His plans were revealed at a Communion Break- fast given last Sunday morning at the Hotel Kenmore in Boston for 160 students of the year old school. These students have been attending classes at Ursuline Academy in Bos- ton. and were instructed by the Do- minican Fathers of Providence Col- lege. The Archbishop also revealed plans to establish a permanent resi- dence for the Dominican Fathers in Boston and ultimately turn the opera- tion of the school over to them. The Communion Breakfast was part of the televised Mass in which Rev. David A. O'Connell, O.P., Rev. Thom- as H. McBrien, O.P., Rev. Lloyd A. Mahler, O.P., and the Rev. Stephen McCormack, O.P.. assisted the Arch- bishop as Chaplains. The Very Rever- end Robert J. Slavin, O.P., President (Continued on Page 5) The Rev. Charles B. Quirk, O.P.

Bowab Last week the literary gem entitled "The Alembic" hit the newsstands with better-than-average reactions from the student body. It contained a variety of material, including the ever present poetry, short stories, and informative articles. The most controversial piece was, m "They Are Also Catholics" by John Martiska. Although there were no dis- senting comments on the article it- self, most readers could not see what place it had in a literary magazine. They referred to it as a collection of dry facts. They neglected to mention, however, that the so-called "dry facts" were presented in a lucid and engaging manner. They should also remember that a literary magazine need not only contain fiction and that truth, factual or otherwise, is stronger than fiction.

However, the duty of keeping the Lounge clean will be up to the stu- dent body. Many Innovations Among the innovations, are blinds, six new study tables, two ping-pong :ables. and chairs.

Charles P. Quirk, OP. chairman of the economics depart- ment here at the school, last Monday night. Speaking before a meeting of the Labor-Management Thomistic Guild in Aquinas Hall, Father Quirk told the audience "that the Taft-Hartley Act will not be repealed at tlhis ses- sion of Congress . . . however, any- ! thing short of complete repeal is patchwork." "The fact that Senator Taft offered 3l) changes to his own bill is substan- tial evidence that something is wrong with the law," he said. Father Quirk repeated his stand 1 taken in 1947, after the bill was passed, that it was: hastily passed in ' hysteria; it is a reaction of fear to a | wave of strikes in 1946; and that it was only saved from the completely ridiculous by the restraining action of Senator Taft. Industrial Peace Aim of T-H The stated purpose of ithe Labor Management Act of 1947, he said, was to bring the orderliness of peace to U. S. Industrial relations. In referring to the act aims he re- marked that: "In attempting to restore the al- leged imbalance at the nation's bar- gaining tables the Taft-Hartley Act restored to legal devices 't)hat greatly increased the regulatory role of the U. S. government in American in- dustrial relations." "This demonstrable fact is frequent- ly overlooked or stubbornly ignored; , but it remains one of the great ironies of current American History " Good In Bargaining Process "Legislation designed to remove al- leged government favoritism towards unions actually thrust the federal au- ' thorities into every phase of the bar- gaining process. This is the unanimous verdict of all dispassionate students of , the question." j "The net effect of the T-H Act has been to circumscribe the bargaining I process with so many regulations that the indispensable condition of freedom is virtually non-existent." Hopes For New Legislation Father Quirk believed that entire- ly new legislation should be formu- lated and that the "new law should (Continued on Page 5) AFTER—eight metal blinds, freshly painted walls and ceilings, and a sanded, varnished, and waxed floor all help to add to the comfort and appearance of the Student Lounge.

"Nothing short of the complete re- peal of the Taf t -Har t l ey law will do," s tated the Rev. Charles P. Quirk , O P . cha i rman of the economics depa r t - ment here at the school, last Monday night .
Speaking before a meet ing of the Labor -Management Thomist ic Guild in Aquinas Hall, F a t h e r Qu i rk told the audience " that the Taf t -Har t l ey Act wil l not be repea led at tlhis ses- sion of Congress . . . however , any-

6 THE COWL, MARCH 11, 1953
Ad Multos Annos Last week, our Holy Father , Pope Pius XII, celebrated a double anniversary. It was his seventy-seventh bir thday and the four-teenth year of his glorious pontificate. His years as the Supreme Pontiff have not been the happiest years the world has seen. The Second World War clouded the horizon when he ascended to the Throne of Peter, and it broke into full fu ry two years later. During tha t grea t struggle he constantly labored for peace, and proved himself the Fa ther of all by his devotion to the relief of all the victims of the war, regardless of their national s ta tus . During the struggle with the evil of Commun-ism, he has again shown his devotion to the cause of peace and his paternal affection to-wards the oppressed, the hungry, and the downtrodden. However, not all was concerned with war and tragedy. In February of 1946, the Holv Fa ther officiated at a consistory which brought the College of Cardinals to its full complement of seventy. For the f i r s t t ime in history all the continents of the ear th became participants in the Sacred College. On Decem-ber 24th, the Vicar of Christ opened the twenty- f i f th Holy Year of the Universal Church. On November 1, he had the privilege of proclaiming the dogma of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. On this, his bir thday and the anniversary
of his elevation to the Pontificate, we, the s tudents of Providence College, send our best wishes for his continual health and success. Ad multos annos!
What Have You Done? We have now reached the half-way mark
of Lent. I t is t ime for a little stock-taking. What have we done so far . Given up cigar- et tes? Stopped going to movies for six weeks? Passed up desserts? These things are well and good, but what about other things. Have we tried to go to daily Mass? Daily Com- munion? If not these have we tried a t least to recite the Rosary daily?
All too often, we might think tha t since we have simply given up something, our obliga- tions are satisfied. This is smug optimism to sav the least. Sure, we have given up some- thing. But why? Perhaps it is an old habit. "Well, I have to give up something," or "all my fr iends have given up something so I may as well." To give up some legitimate pleasure and then go on our merry way living much the same way as we have is to defeat the very purpose of sacrifice.
Lent is a period of pennance, but it is also a period in which we a t tempt to improve our- selves : to mold our lives more closely to the Ideal Life. Coupled with mortif ication should be a growth in charity, in justice, in fa i th . More smiles should cross our faces; our hands should be more willing to help others ; our lips should be used more in speaking praise and kind words ra ther than senseless criticisms and petty gossip.
Lent is not simply a period of t ime arbi- trari lv established by the Church to fill-out the liturgical calender. It was insti tuted for men to take a better look at themselves, to rid themselves of bad habits, and to cultivate virtuous acts. No one should go through Lent without having improved himself in some way. If a t the end, all one can say is tha t he has given up cigarettes for six weeks, there has been a fai lure somewhere along the way. It is not too late for a re-examination of our con- duct during the Holy Season of Lent. If we see nothing positive, steps should be taken to insure our Lent of coming to a successful end. Without a Good Friday, there can be no Eas ter Sunday.
New School For Laity The battle against Communism, material-ism and secularism is not reserved solely to priests and religious. It is a f igh t in which we all have a part . Frequently though, the laity has been hampered due to lack of ade-quate knowledge. Happily, this situation will no longer exist in this area. At Emmanuel College in Boston, there will be established on a permanent basis, the Arch-bishop Cushing School of Theology for Laity. The School has been functioning since last September, but until now it has had no per-manent quarters . Under the careful guidance of our own Dominican Fathers , a three year course in theology will be offered to a limited number of students. Speaking f rom our own experi-ence, we know tha t the Archbishop could not have chosen a bet ter group to s taff the School. It is our hope tha t God will look upon this venture with benevolence and bless it with success.

From The Tower: Shuffle Of Red Chiefs Means No Basic Chan^
By John Martiska When an important head of a s ta te dit.
there is grief and mourning in the nation. he was a leader of international stature, sorrow extends the world over. The death of Stalin has provoked mixed emotions. Human life is a precious thing, so the death of any man is a sad occurrence. We may rejoice in the fac t t ha t this man who was the au thor of so much evil is now a harmless corpse. However, regardless of wha t Stalin has done, one th ing must be at- mi t ted—he was a leader, a s t rong leader. H>r much he will be missed by the Russian peo i. is a ma t t e r of conjecture.
For many years now they have been * beaten into subjection t ha t it ma t t e r s little t them who is the "Great Leader." It seem reasonable to suppose t ha t the new premiei will not change domestic policy too much. Ptr haps slave-labor will increase, and secret polici activities may become more str ingent, bj these activities are so f a r advanced now, tin a little more pressure will not cause immeditti upheavals.
What is Malenkov To Do? The impor tant question is how will Stali; :
death influence world a f fa i r s . Will the n> i leaders be more belligerent, more aggressi< > more inclined towards a showdown with 11 West ? How are the satellites going to at W h a t is Mao going to do in China? All thf i questions revolve around the central questi of what Malenkov is going to do. Some indie tions of his actions are already evident. Ti power of the government is being concentrate in fewer hands.
The Presidium, a new name for the o Politburo, has been reduced f rom twenty-fi« members to ten. The appointments of Ber as minister of security, Bulganin as defens minister , and Molotov to his old job as hea of the foreign service, put his three stronger rivals in positions where they can be unde close scrut iny. These moves would tend to sug gest t h a t the new premier is out to re-shuffl the government so t ha t it will be easier t keep a check on his lieutenants. Dictator always operate under the threa t of a palat revolution, so steps have to be taken to re duce this risk to the minimum.
Beria, Bulganin and Molotov Obviously, Malenkov needs help r ight not
to run the government. He has had a grea deal of experience in the operations of th Communist Par ty , but it takes more than on man to keep the internal politics of the natioi under f i rm control. Once he has "learned th ropes," these three men, Beria, Bulganin, am Molotov, will probably fade into oblivion am be replaced by men who are unquestionabl; loyal to him.
The old leader is dead but the one who i replacing him is much the same. He is anti West and his goal is to subject the rest o Europe and the world, if possible, to Commun ist domination. All tha t has been changed i: the photograph. Instead of Stalin, we will nov see Malenkov.

It's the size of the
FIGHT in the man!
That's right! In the U. S. Air Force, it 's not the size of the man in the fight—it's the size of the FIGHT IN THE MAN ! And Aviation Cadets must have plenty of it. For Cadet training is rugged. If you're good enough . . . tough enough . . . smart enough . . . if you can take it while you're learning to dish it out, you can have one of the most fascinating careers in the world. You'll be equipped to fly the latest, hottest planes. You'll be prepared to take your position as an executive, both in military and com- mercial aviation as well as in industry. And while 'ou're helpingyourself you'll be helpingyour country.
WIN YOUR WINGS! I t takes little over a year to win your wings as a Pilot or Aircraft Observer (Navigator,Bombardier,RadarOperator or Aircraft Performance Engineer). But at the end of your training you graduate as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Air Force, with pay of $5,300.00 a year.
ARE YOU ELIGIBLE? To qualify as an Aviation Cadet, you must have completed at least two years of college. This is a minimum requirement— it 's best if you stay in school and graduate. In addition, you must be between 19 and 26 Yi years, unmarried, and in good physical condition.
N e w Aviation Cadet Training Classes Begin Every Few Weeks!

T r a c k as a spor t is a growing con- c e r n at P. C. In the f e w yea r s that r has been a recognized sport here much has been accomplished.
