Only a sincere search for objective truth and ':r a fearless respect for Christian principles will bring to light a solution for the economic, socio- logical, political confusion of the nations. Only the Saving Truth of Christ as guarded and inter- ,- -- preted by His Vicar stands squarely in the path of EQ: those who would deprive their fellovvmen of moral 1' and intellectual and political freedom. The men of St. Joseph's can enter the world of affairs with the assurance that they have been provided with the intellectual and moral weapons that enlist them in the forces of Right. God grant that the graduates of '48 and those who will follow them will carry the message of Christ to their fellow citizens with courage and with prayer! nt of St. Joseph's EEE.. ..EEE l l l -5- 32 3' COLLEGE PRESIDENT l Page seven
