C. Vatican Prelate Urges Just Pay for Farmers VATICAN CITY — (NC) — The farmer is not justly paid unless he can have a dignified standard of ' fliving, the Papal secretary of state has told Spaniards. . Amleto Cardinal Cicognani, in a letter to those taking part in the 21st Spanish social week in Va lencia (Sept. 17 to 23), outlined three points which he said must be observed if the farmer is to be raised from an inferior position in society. The points he made referred to land, capital and labor. LAND, the Cardinal pointed out, is the “natural factor, which must j, be reclaimed and developed.” He f praised the institute for farm de ! velopment in Spain which has re claimed almost one and a half mil lion acres of land. The Cardinal urged that “the in vestment of capital in agriculture Fire Destroys Library CACEM, Portugal — (NC) — A library of 6,000 volumes was lost when fire destroyed a new section of a seminary here. The chapel, still unfinished, was also wrecked. Formal opening of the addition had been scheduled for October 1. be promoted, in spite of the low return which the land yields.” In regard to farm labor, he said: “efforts must be made to extend legislation for social benefits to agriculture.” The farmer is not re ceiving a just remuneration, he added, if he cannot have a digni fied standard of living for himself and his family. “THE DEMANDS of justice and charity are sometimes greater than those of the written law, particularly concerning social questions, because labor legislation cannot keep up with the evolution of economic events,” the cardinal said. “Legislation must be kept up to date as much as possible, and it must never prevent employers from paying their workers, when feasible, wages above the strict average prescribed by law. Just as remuneration for work cannot be left entirely to the fluctuations of the market, so neither can it be fixed arbitrarily.” The letter ended with the hope that public authorities and farmers would combine forces in trying to arrive at an understanding of rural problems and a just solution to them.

Mexico's First National Day of Faith Scheduled MEXICO CITY — (NC) — Mexican Catholics will observe this country’s first National Day of Faith on October 12. The celebration was decided on last October at the meeting of Mexico’s Bishops, who set up a Na tional Secretariat for the Defense of the Faith to promote the ob servance. The secretariat, whose president is Msgr. Jose Toral Moreno, has is sued a statement spelling out the aims of the celebration. The state ment declared: “In view of governmental disre gard for the Church, the celebra tion of a National Day of Faith is proper in order to show clearly that the spiritual mission of the Church and the temporal mission of the state, far from interfering with one another, complement and aid one another when both Church and State act in harmony. “CONSIDERING the multitude* of basic problems—those involving Indians, the family, school, morals, the social question and amuse ments—the celebration of a Na tional Day of Faith can show that an adequate solution of these and similar problems can be achieved only under the sign of the Faith.” The Bishops’ committee has asked all Mexican Catholics to re ceive Communion on October 12 and to say prayers of a reaffirma tion of the Faith and to Our Lady of Guadalupe, Mexico’s patroness.
