Catholic Welfare Council;
Washington, D.- a', January 5, 1921.
Right Reverend and Dear Bishop:
During the meeting of the Hierarchy, in September,
derided-to request the Bishops, in whose dtoresas cath<
pers are published, to unlth in a moveinont -having
ject.au increase of interest In the Catholic press an
the Catholic public. It wait left to the Press/’ r>.ouc.c,
eraturo Department of the National Catholic Wei fare Council to
lay out a program at least suggestive in Ito character. -----
decided to name the month of March as CATHOLIC
MONTH. /..-;
The National Council of Catholic Women and the
Council of Catholic Men have token up the ntatt ' '
ute circulars and unite their membership throughout the country
—.J—. . . . throughout the
appeals will be published in
operating with this department in taking other practical steps to
arouse a widespread luterest in the needs and opportunities of
the Catholic press.
The extent to which the Catholic newspapers of the coun-
try are using the material gathered froth many parts of the
world and distributed by this department is most encouraging.
It is generally conceded that the readability and news, value of
the Catholic papers have been very materially increased. There
is. however, on the other hand, no doubt that the Catholic pub-
lic, generally speaking, Is In a condition pt indifference, ft mignt
almost be said of supineneas, toward Its press. Vigorous and con-
certed action Is urgently requested to awaken- bur. people from this
condition of dangerous lassitude. All our efforts to increase the
Fewer and value of cur papers will bo wasted unless we succeed
in directing the practical attention of our- Catholic laymen and
lay women to- the duty of subscribing for and actively supporting
their own newspapers, periodicals, pamphlets and books.
This department earnestly and hopefully solicits your- active
Interest in this movement, which under, your guidance should
unite the clergy and laity tn an understanding, the benefit of.
which win be of the most practical character.’ It is suggested,
in particular, that you request, at least in .a general way, the
clergy of your diocese to arrange for the preaching of at least
one sermon on the Catholic press in each: parish during the
month of March.
If it seems well to you there is nd doubt that effective assist-
ance could be also rendered to this campaign by the Issuance of
a letter to your people to be read from the>5 pulpits of your dio-
cese the first week in March or on some Sunday during that month.
Trusting that you will be able to. give- tbla raovement the
assistance which it urgently requires, ■ and/that copies of any
letters which you may issue on this subject wfli be sent to this
department, so that the department, may have the benefit of your
messages, I am. Respectfully yours, ;1’

Question—Two Catholics wish to
be married, but not by their parish
priest. Can they be married by an-
other priest?
Answer—Yes; it they obtain the
permission o£ their pastor. The law
cf the Church is that Catholics must
be married in the presence of their
pastor; any other priest must obtain
delegation of that pastor before he
is permitted to assist at the mar-
riage. If you have the Catholic
spirit you will obey the mind of
the Church in this matter.
