\ 'Escalation of Moral Numbness' IS St. Paul —(RNS)— Churches and synagogues have an un- equivocal obligation to maintain for all the right to dissent in the Vietnam war, a Protestant theologian said at an interreli gious \service of concern\ at St. Leo's Catholic church here. Dr. Robert McAfee Brown, professor of religion at Stan ford University, said that to support the decisions of the Administration regardless of moral implications \is~a—blas- phemy, a worship of false idols. \We are being told more and more,\ the United Presbyterian toUs theologian said, \that to dissent is equal to disloyalty. Loyalty must never be strictly to na- tions. It must be to God. \In the community of men, conscience is precisely most im- portant when it voices a mi- nority viewpoint.\ Churches, he stated, \must point out what war is doing to us. And what it is doing must be termed an escalation of moral numbness. \There is an increasing in- sensitivity, a losing of a sense of constraint about how the war is being carried out. Requiem, Tributes Offered Priest-Victims of Crash Garrison, N.Y. — Sixty Friars of the Atonement and other priests at Graymoor, Garrison, offered a con- celebrated Mass of Requiem June 28 for Very Rev. Alexander Beaton, S.A. and Rev. DeSales Standerwick, S.A., who were fatally injured in a plane crash near Blossburg, Pa., on June 23. 7ery Rev. Camillus Daniels, S-A., vicar general of the Gray- moor Friars, was the principal celebrant, assisted by Rev. Leon Kotsko, S.A., and Rev. Ralph Thomas, S.A. Auxiliary Bishop Terence Cooke, D.D., representing Fran cis Cardinal Spellman of New York gave the absolution after Mass. Very Rev. Samuel Cum mings, S.A., delivered the eulogy hi which he paid tribute to the cleyoted lives of both priests. \Father Alexander was our father general for only a short time,\ he said, \but what he did for the Society of the Atone- ment will never be forgotten Together with the fathers meet ing in Washington he' gave our community a hew direction,-a new dimension, especially in the field of Christian Unity.\ Father Samuel paid tribute to the years of dedicated serv- ice of Father DeSales who spent the 18 years of his priesthood at the minor seminary at Mon- tour Falls, N.Y. \He gave of himself; he was<:ompletely dedi- cated to the apostolate of train- ing young men for the priest- hood of Christ. In this work he succeeded admirably.\ Father Alexander \was elected Father General just last June 3. He was from New Glasgow, N.S., Canada, and is survived by four brothers and one sis- ter. Father DeSales was born in Brooklyn, and is survived by his parents and twosisters, Mrs. Dolores Toolan and Mrs. Marie Morrison.

'We an? able to absorb atro- cities without shock. We talk increasingly only of victory. \At the Nuremburg trials fol lowing World War II, the Allies laid individual guilt upon Ger mans for attacking villages, de stroying civilian property, de- porting people, and destroying land around towns. \Yet we find the same thing in Vietnam. When we do it, we don't call it wrong. We call it 'Operation Cedar Falls.' \We as people are becoming numb to the increasing number of civilian deaths.\ Dr. Brown said churches and synagogues have a particular re- sponsibility to \press the ques- tions we want to avoid thinking labout.\ Part of the task, he said, is to raise questions about the attitude in the country about communism. He said Americans have contributed to this ques- tion a note of hysteria. The Communist monolith has been crumbling,\ he said. 'Communist nations have felt more and more a sense of na- tionalism and independence rather than international unity. Yet the more we bomb Hanoi, the more we Jprce that crum- bling monolith'-back together.\ iS-o James Reagan Rites Held Funeral Mass for James W. Reagan was offered in St. Moni- ca's Church, July 1.
