Cole, its publisher, donated the "morgue" to Cleveland State University. Representing the archived editorial library, sometimes referred to as a "newspaper morgue," topics focus on the news coverage of northeastern Ohio, with national and international news stories holding a secondary level of importance.The Cleveland Press photograph collection is composed of an archive of over one million photographs. Unit ID: PH2000.000PRE Language(s) of the Materials: English History of The Cleveland Press The Cleveland Press, founded by Edward W. Scripps, began as the Penny Press on 2 Nov. 1878. A small, 4-page afternoon daily, the paper continued to prosper. Shortened to the Press in 1884, and finally the Cleveland Press in 1889, by 1903 the Press was Cleveland's leading daily newspaper. As it entered the 1920s, the Press neared 200,000 in circulation. Louis B. Seltzer became the 12th editor of the Press in 1928, and under his 38-year stewardship the Press became one of the country's most influential newspapers. Seltzer readjusted its original working-class bias into a less controversial neighborhood orientation, stressing personal contacts and promoting the slogan "The Newspaper That Serves Its Readers." In the postwar period the Press continued its public service campaigns and remained an unrivaled force in Ohio politics.

Archbishop Timothy P. Broglio, J.C.D. Statement on the Proposed 'Don't
Archbishop Timothy P. Broglio, J.C.D. Statement on the Proposed ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell’ Legislation (01.VI.10) In a response to a request from the Chiefs of Chaplains of the Armed Forces I communicated some considerations and concerns regarding the proposal to change the existing legislation regarding persons with a homosexual orientation in the military. In fulfilling my role as the chief shepherd of Catholics in the United States Armed Forces, I have had the opportunity of visiting many installations in the recent past. A number of chaplains and commanding officers have expressed concerns about the effects of a change. There is a request for guidance. The teaching of the Catholic Church is clearly expressed in the Catechism of the Catholic Church: 2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,140 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered."141 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved. 2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial.

ANNUAL REPORT 2016–2017 to Strengthen the Lives of Those in Need by Giving Help That Empowers and Hope That Lasts
RestoringHope ANNUAL REPORT 2016–2017 To strengthen the lives of those in need by giving help that empowers and hope that lasts. Dear Friends, With a profound sense of gratitude, it is my joy to present this annual report for Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington. Your support of this ministry of hope and compassion is a powerful testament to the conviction that we have a responsibility to care for one another with kindness and love. “Blessed are the open hands that embrace those in need and helps them: they are hands that bring hope,” says Pope Francis in his Message for the First World Day of the Poor. As we have received such saving hope ourselves in the merciful love of Jesus, he adds, so are we called to turn to “all those who stretch out their hands and plead for our help and solidarity. They are our brothers and sisters, created and loved by the one Heavenly Father.” As you read this annual report, you will see how generously and fruitfully that call has been answered in our local Church. Behind all the financial figures and data are the faces of so many people whose lives are brighter today thanks to the dedicated efforts of Catholic Charities and the benefactors who make it all possible. Through the 58 programs operated in this area by this remarkable ministry, each year more than 142,000 women, men, and children from every background find much-appreciated material and spiritual help, including food assistance, housing, health care, immigration and refugee assistance, services for persons with developmental disabilities, job training, and more.

SHARE JOY Walkthe with Francis ANNUAL REPORT 2014-2015 “Charity is born of the call of a God who continues to knock on our door, the door of all people, to invite us to love, to compassion, to service of one another. — Pope Francis, St. Patrick’s Parish 2 Dear Friends, It is a pleasure to present to you this annual report for Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington which highlights the efforts of this ministry to walk with Pope Francis in faith and charity on our pilgrim journey. The stories found in this report remind all of us that through the love we share, the Gospel faith still has the power to transform people’s lives. When our Holy Father met with some of the clients, staff and volunteers of Catholic Charities during his visit to Washington this year, he stressed that “Jesus wanted to show solidarity with every person. He wanted everyone to experience his companionship, his help, his love.” Thanks to your compassionate support, through Catholic Charities, our sisters and brothers in need are able to encounter that consolation and love of Christ every day. As a visible sign of Christ’s presence in the world today, this faith-filled ministry meets a myriad of material and spiritual needs in its 65 programs, including: housing, job training, legal aid, immigration and refugee assistance, mental health treatment, medical and dental care, life-long care for those with developmental disabilities, and food assistance, such as Saint Maria’s Meals, which served the lunch that was blessed during Pope Francis’ visit.
