Priest gets 'self-imposed' exile.
Title
Priest gets 'self-imposed' exile.
Description
Text transcribed from caption: C-31980 PRIEST GETS 'SELF-IMPOSED' EXILE LOS ANGELES- Father John V. Coffield, pastor of Ascension church in Los Angeles, has requested--and been granted-- a "self-imposed exile" in Chicago for an indefinite period. He is shown here with Father Juan Soto (left) and a group of parishioners, most of whom are Latin Americans and Negroes. Father Coffield, in announcing the exile, claimed he had been forbidden to preach out against racial problems by James Francis Cardinal McIntyre, Archbishop of Los Anegeles. He said he preferred the exile to maintaining "silence on racism," and as a solution to "an impasse between my cardinal and myself." Father Coffield also claimed he had been given an "enforced vacation of five months" from June to November after he had spoken out against a state proposition nullifying anti-discrimination laws in housing, later approved by voters.
