are nearing a firm formal stand against what they see as inaction in the face of scandalous poverty and joblessness in the United States In this week's newest draft of their proposed pastoral letter on the economy they complain there is no more than a "nominal endorsement" of full employment with no real commitment by government officials or others As for poverty they declare "That so many people are poor in a nation as rich as ours is a social and moral scandal that we cannot ignore" The bishops provide no blueprint for narrowing the distance between rich and poor but they call for government programs to fight unemployment — a position at odds with Reagan administration policies Though Reagan himself has steered clear of public criticism of the draft document since it was first introduced in November 1984 conservative allies have attacked its viewpoints which both friends and foes generally agree are more often in tune with Democratic than Republican party versions of economic life in the United States Individual bishops have also called for more emphasis on the positive aspects of the US economy and those aspects are indeed mentioned in the letter June 7 1986 However the latest version retains the principles and occasionally harsh rhetoric of the original One of the hundreds of minor docuchanges in the ment is in the title inserting a banner reading "Economic Justice for AH" above the previous "Catholic Social Teaching and the US Economy" The nation's 300 bishops will have a last chance to amend the document just before approving it at their annual meeting in November But Archbishop Rembert Weakland of Milwaukee head of the drafting committee said in comments accompanying the new draft that bishops' reactions so far reflect "general acceptance of the structure and message" The letter will not be binding on American Catholics but it will serve as a basis for US Catholic teaching on economic matters and thus couUI have a significant effect on' views JJf Clyde
