And there is compelling new evidence that Daniel is improbably cast as a co-conspirator to blow up federal buildings in Washington and kidnap Presidential Adviser Henry Kissinger. In a message to the Weathermen, taped last August and printed in the Village Voice last week, Daniel Berrigan spoke forcefully of the need to avoid just that type of violence.

Despite their confinement in the minimum-security federal prison at Danbury, Conn., the two Roman Catholic priests are still bucking the system. Daniel, 49, a Jesuit and poet, is serving a three-year sentence and working as a dental assistant. Philip, 47, a member of the Josephite fathers and a polemicist, is in for six years and doing office work. Together they lead...
