Sincetheirinterestinahealthyeconomyiscommon,the HolyFathercontinued,"why shoulditnotmanifestitselfina commonoutwardexpression? Whyshoulditnotbeallowable toassigntotheworkersajust shareofresponsibilityinthe establishmentanddevelopment ofthenationaleconomy?"

Heremindedhisaudiencethat PopePiusXI,hassuggested"a practicalandtimelyprescription"forgivingconcreterealisationtothemutualityofinterest betweenworkersandemployers. Hisformula,firstrecommended in"QuadragesimoAnna,"and lateronstressedintheencyclicalonCommunism,"DiviniRedemptoris;wastheestablishing ofself-governingoccupational groupsinallsectorsofindustry.

Inthefollowingpassage,Pope PiusXII.notmerelyemphasised(ashehaddoneonseveral otheroccasionssincethewar, inhislettertotheSemninesSocialesofFranceIn 1946)thattherehadbeenno changeinRomeontheoccupational-groupsystem,butindicated ovethat

1.Classhatredwhichisas bitterto-dayinAustraliaasit hasbeeninthepast.

WhenChristinstitutedthe SacramentofBaptism,Hechose waterastheexternalsignand fortheformofwords,"Ibaptiseyouinthenameofthe FatherandoftheSonandof theHolyGhost."Therewas noinstructiongiventhatthe waterwastobeappliedtothe wholebodybyimmersionor dipping.Itistruethatthe mostancientmethodusually employedwasimmersion,but thisdoesnotmeanthatitwas theonlymethodused.Asfar backasthetimeoftheApostlesinfusion,thatispouringthe water,andaspersionthatis sprinkling,wereemployedfor thesickanddying.Ifthiswas validforthesickitwouldbe validforanyone.Eventhe immersionpractisedintheearly dayswas,inmostcases,not totalimmersion.Thebodywas notplungedintowater;the usualpracticewasforthepersontostandinthewaterandto havealittlewaterpouredon thehead.IntheLatinChurch baptismbyimmersionseemsto havebeenthemostcommon methoduntilthe12th.century. Insomecountriesitprevailedas lateasthe16thcentury,though allthetimethemethodofpouringthewaterwasalsoinuse,
