  • U.S. BISHOPS' SUGGESTIONS for VATICAN II Joseph A. Komonchak
    U.S. BISHOPS' SUGGESTIONS FOR VATICAN II Joseph A. Komonchak The Catholic University of America Scholarly investigation of the reactions of United States Catholics to the announcement of the Second Vatican Council has barely begun. Neither of the two most recent histories of the Church in the United States addresses the question, preferring instead general remarks on the great changes effected in American Catholicism by the election of President John F. Kennedy and the reforms inaugurated by the Council.1 No social-scientific survey of Catholic responses to the announcement appears to have been made at the time, and a careful study of the reactions of the Catholic press, both popular and scientific, is still only in its initial stages. A vast amount of preliminary work is needed before one can make anything more than educated guesses about American attitudes towards Pope John's announcement. A major part of any such study, of course, is the reactions of U.S. bishops.2 An important source for a knowledge of their attitudes is provided in the proposals for the conciliar agenda that they submitted in response to the invitation of Cardinal Tardini. This essay will attempt a survey of these American vota which until now have been the object of only rapid and somewhat impressionistic reviews.3 For the full picture, of course, the materials reviewed here will have to be supplemented by a study, barely begun yet, of other sources--pastoral letters, newspaper columns, correspondence, diaries, etc. THE FIRST REACTIONS OF AMERICAN CARDINALS On January 25, 1959, there were four American Cardinals: Cushing, McIntyre, O'Hara, and Spellman, none of whom was present when Pope John announced the Council.
