The new All Saints' Centre has certairdy proved itself a haven of spirituality for the workers of the City.

Last Friday it completed its first month of mid-day Masses and a record number of 3,400 people have attended the Holy Sacri ice with 1,800 of them receiving Holy Communion. This is indeed an auspicious beginning for a grand and glorious effort at bringing Our Divine Lord to the heart of our growing City. The constant visits of the public has made its thresh hold the busiest in Perth. The roster of adorers has been beyond all expectation. Hats are now lifted in reverence to the Christ who dwells within. As from Monday, January 14, the Blessed 'Sacrament will he reserved in the building, as a caretaker will live on the premises. The doors will open at 8 a.m. so that early morning workers can pay a quick visit to the Divine Master to a ;ic a blessing on their day.

Time-Table The Masses, as heretofore, will be as follows:— Mon.,. Wed. and Friday. 1.10 p.m. Tues. and Thurs. 12.10 p.m. A server for the 12.10 Mass has been arranged, but nothing definite has been arranged for the 1.10 Mass. If anyone can guarantee being present for the 1.10 Mass,

MAN OF THE YEAR

His Holiness Pope John XXIII, whose portrait graces the cover of latest issue of Time, the weekly news magazine, has been chosen "Man of the Year" by the editors of that publication. He is the first man of religion to be so designated since the tradition was established in 1927. In selecting Pope John for the 36th year, Time credited the Pontiff with "creating history in a way that few men were able to do in 1962."

Official Opening T he . building will be officially opened by His Grace the Archbishop when all renovations to halls and front of the building are completed. The date has not yet been set. When anyone is near the Centre, he should not pass by the way without making a visit. The faithful should bring their non-Catholic friends along, and teach them the habit of saying a small prayer by cultivating the habit themselves. Character is made by habits — make them good ones.

Archbishop N.Z. People Adopt Ten Returns Infants From Rome His Grace the Archbishop returned to Perth on Tuesday a fternoon. Expressing his views on the Coun:il His Grace said that— Everyone was pleased with the progress made at the opening session of the 2nd Vatican Council. All feel that it would be a landmark in t' history of the Church. It was a most moving experience to assemble day after day with the other Bishops of every race and colour (representing 134 nations) gathered around the same altar at the Tomb of St. Peter and sin-_'H the Creed together in perfect of faith. The Bishops from every corn, of the earth had the opportunity getting to know each other and each others' problems, and discussilfreely the great problems facinl the world in this period of histor:The Council has been adjourneti until next September. In the meantime the various Commissions will be busily engaged in preparing further material in the light of the discussions which have already taken place. Observers from other Churches have been impressed by the atmosphpere of freedom and vigour in which the Council discussions were conducted. The Australian Bishops had the privilege of an audience with the Holy Father and we shall never forget the beautiful simplicity and great wisdom with which he spoke to us for three quarters of an hour. sending his special blessing to the people of our Country.

Wellington: Ten Chinese baby girls started 1963 by flying more than 5.000 miles to a new life in a new country. The 10, all orphans ranging in age from 16 months to three years, flew from Hong Kong to join 10 new families here. The new fathers of the well-

travelled orphans include a doctor, 2 lawyers, an engineer. a public accountant., two post office clerks, an army sergeant and two government clerks. A 2i-year-old placed with one of the post office clerks found seven new brothers and sisters waiting for her. The Hong Kong office of Catholic Relief Services—NCWC acting for this city's St. Vincent de Paul Society, selected the babies from Hong Kong Catholic orphanages. The c- . Vincent de Paul Society arranged to place the orphans here through the local Catholic Social Services and the Wellington department of Education.

PERCENTAGE IN SCHOOLS

CANBERRA: Catholic schools taught almost 20 per cent of this country's school pupils last year. Commonwealth Statistician K. M. Archer reported that 429.522 out of

a total school population of 2.187.609 went to Australia's 1,750 Catholic schools which are staffed by 12.306 teachers,

LOANS HELP IN Desmond O'Grady Writes SCHOOL FUNDS MELBOURNE: Money borrowed from individual Catholics will make approximately X500,000 available for loans to Catholic schools this fiscal year. The Melbourne School Provident Fund gave this estimate in a statement -issued from its headquarters here. Loans to the Melbourne Catholic school system are helping to finance school facilities in many of the city's parishes, particularly in rapidly growing areas. Under the fund's plan, Catholics are invited to lend money on interest-bearing deposit to help meet education costs. As of October 31, the fund had £4,945,000 on deposit, the statement disclosed.

Presentation, Not Doctrine The main differences of opinion in the ecumenical council's debates concerned the presentation not the doctrine of the various projects presented to the council. That is the opinion expressed by Archbishop Owen

McCann of Cape Town on his return from the Vatican. The Archbishop said in an interview- published in the Catholic newspaper. The Southern Cross, that some council Fathers wanted the projects—technically known as schema—to be presented in a tone that is "pastoral, evangelical and meaningful for ordinary people in contradistinction to the scholastic and juristic manner in which they had been drawn up. • It is this . view —that of the majority'—which is behind the revision of the schema which is being undertaken."

Archbishop McCann stressed the evident unity of the

bishops with His Holiness Pope John XXIII as supreme pontiff on the one hand and on the other, the "collegiality" of the bishops as the successors of the College of the 'Apostles. He stated) "The bishops were very

conscious

that

bility was emphasized in the discussions and I expect that a declaration will be made at the next session which will emphasize its importance in the ordinary day to day life of the Church." It had been intended that episcopal responsibility should be discussed at the First Vatican Council (18691870) but it broke up before this could be done, he ex-

plained.

Vernacular "Unity" The Archbishop also stressed the practical unanimity with which the bishops decided on the use of the vernacular in the liturgy. While

emphasizing that the Latin is the language of the Western Church. an overwhelming majority voted in favour of greater use of the vernacular. in the liturgy. They agreed that the ver-

nacular might be used in those parts of the Mass

which are addressed to the faithful and in which they participate actively, he reported. Although the council seemed slow-moving, it was a success, Archbishop McCann said. It was inevitable that in an assembly of 2,500 who all had the right to speak, the debates should be protracted. he added. The machinery of debate had to be worked out — it

was a new experience for all the Council Fathers —

but this has been achieved, he noted. The emphasis in the procedure was on the absolute freedom of the bishops to express their views. When a closure was felt to be called for, the bishops themselves voted on it, he concluded.

A UTTER FROM ROME

R ECENTLY I TOOK A TRIP TO MALTA AND DISCOVERED WHAT IT IS LIKE TO LIVE ON A SMALL ISLAND WHEN THE MAIN SOURCE OF INCOME DRIES UP. MALTA HAS LARGELY LOST ITS VALUE AS A FORTRESS THESE DAYS SO THE BRITISH MILITARY ESTABLISHMENT IS WITHDRAWING. The island economy depended on the establishment to a large extent so it faltered with its reduction; there will be further reduction of 5,900 in the next five years. This would not upset a complex economy but Malta is minute, it takes little more than half-an-hour to drive across the main island by car while the second island Gozo, is smaller. A visit to the supermarket in the district where the service wives used to live is depressing. Even on a Saturday morning there are rarely more than ten people in the store at any one time. At a glance one can get an inkling of Malta's difficulties. The first thing one notices in the capital Valletta are the massive walls which the knights of Malta built in the 16th century to defend the small city from the Turks. The second thing one notices is that the whole landscape seems to be the same off-white colour as these walls.

Not Arable Soil Already it is clear why Malta is an excellent fortress and why it is unrewarding for farmers. The landscape is eloquent of the hard soil and the dry climate: there is little green but as far as the eye can see dusty roads, parched fields, villages built around churches which are the same colour as the fields. When the Knights fortified the island in the 16th century they were aware of the danger's implied in the scarse rainfall. At the 4P•44 , 411,11,4"######.1.41.#4.4,4

moment a large building site is being excavated in the centre of Valletta and it has revealed the tunnels and conduits built by the Knights to conduct any rainwater into wells. The Knights sank wells under each sizeable building because they were worried that their water supplies might be cut during a siege. The problem is as acute today for the population of 300,000 places a heavy strain atchment on the small areas. The government is studying Israel's methods of meeting a similar difficulty.

Agriculture Weak The Knights, over four hundred years ago, were alive to another of Malta's drawbacks: the poverty of the soil. They brought soil to the island as ballast in. sailing ships. Nowadays this predominantly agricultural community cannot fully support itself even in agricultural products Industry does not offer great hopes of rescuing Malta from its economic difficulties. The Government has assisted the establishmeni of textile and canning industries by protecting them with high duties. The costs of production will be low because factory girls are paid about 12.10 weekly. But industries must have a market and it is unlikely that Malta will be able to complete with nearby European countries. Tourism is probably the best bet for reviving the economy but for this to happen the hotels would have 11 ,41411 , 41 , 11.#0.4.11,1140,14.4, 41,04.4.#4.4.4.4,14.4,11.

PRELATES PRAISE Auckland: One New Zealand prelate stressed the unity of the Fathers of the ecumenical council and another criticised sensationalised press reports of council disagreements on their return home from the Vatican. Archbishop Peter McKeefry of Wellington said in an interview here that "among such a gathering of

bishops, while there was often a critical note on many things non-essential, there was absolute unanimity on all matters essential. It was a tribute to that real unity that exists in the Church." The Archbishop was critical of "the silly talk about progressives and conservatives" among the council Fathers. He said: "Conservative is a most false label when applied to bishops. Bishops, priests, and the average well-informed among the laity also have a deep sense of the historical and appreciate fully the accumulated wisdom of the Church's 2,000 years of experience. This makes for a prudent approach to all matters, and it is shallow thinking to call such prudence conservatism." In another interview, Auxiliary Bishop Reginald Delargey of Auckland criticised sensation-seeking newsmen at the council who exaggerated differences among the Fathers. "Many reports about clashes of opinion at the council were so inaccurate as to be laughable," he said. adding that "there was, of course. also much good report-

Catholic Church would have to allow the type of night life which tourists can enjoy in other countries. links economic Closer with Europe may be the long term answer but long term answers are of no interest to people who are likely to lose their jobs in the immediate future. Emigration is the readiest solution. Some Maltese are going to the Common Market countries these clays to find work but now, as in the past, most Maltese think of Australia when they have to leave their isolated rock. Australia has taken 60 per cent of the post war emigrants and for every ten Maltese in the island there is one in Australia. There are a number of "Aussie Saloons" and "Sydney Bars" throughout Malta. Some of them have been opened by migrants who returned from Australia to find a Maltese wife but, once married, their wives convinced them to remain in the island.

He had casts made of the holes and found they had held bronze letters\dedieating the obelisk to a Roman prefect in Egypt, Caius Cornelius Gallus. Gallus dedicated the obelisk to himself when he was made prefect, and derided the Emperor Octavius Augustus. Eventually he was brought back to Rome n rid convicted for treason.

Lentils As Ballast Caligula had the obelisk shipped to Rome in a ship built for the purpose and ballasted with 120.000 bushels of lentils. There is a good story about the erection of the obelisk in St. Peter's square. Pope Sixtus V had the obelisk removed from the sports arena and onlookers were told to maintain

also defended the Roman curia, the Church's administrative staff at the Vatican. which has been criticised by some. "It has been called the civil service of the Church. an apt enough description," the Archbishop said, "for it operates for the general and common good of the Church Universal. The curia has its traditions and in many matters works by precedent. a common feature in administrative bodies. Bishops through their ad limina visits keep the curia well informed on general affairs and for that reason the curia has a marvellous international outlook." Bishop Delargey also emphasised the unity of the council Fathers in matters of doctrine and said debates were concerned mainly with ways of expressing it He said: "There is no problem in what we want to say; it is how to say it. We are trying to State what we already know and believe in a more contemporary and compelling way. "The intense pastoral concern of the council was shown in not seeking to tie down any area to old ways or new experiments but in the tendency to leavo it to the prudent decision of the local bishops."

Charge Of Marxism Before First Election Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, A charge of Marxist Leninist leanings tossed by a Catholic priest at a leading presidential candidate threatened to delay this country's first free elections in 32 years. But two days before the December 20 elections Juan Bosch, candidate of the Dominican Re v o lutionary party, dropped demands that the elections be postponed for a month and reversed his decision to withdraw from • them if they were not pos'.• poned. Bosch had previously announced that he was pulling out of the election U it were not postponed because a Catholic priest had accused him of promoting MarxistLeninist ideas. The priest, father Lautico Garcia, S.J., and Bosch settled their differences during a five-hour television-radio debate. Father Garcia modified his charges during the debate and Bosch told newsmen afterwards: "We were satisfied with both Father Lautico's explanation and the favourable reaction of the people to our posture." The controversy started when Father Garcia published in the evening daily La Nacion a commentary on an article published by Bosch in the weekly Renovacion. Father Garcia wrote that Bosch's article. -Government and Revolution," contained 14-irxist - I.eninist ideas.

.ored by the Catholic Evidence Guild. Present at the series, dealing with Christian unity, were ministers and lay members of several non-Catholic denominations. Hodgson told the group the unity of Christians is no longer optional but necessary in this day of secularmaterialism and mili ..nz. atheistic communism.

Holy Spirit, Prayer

A Catholic magazine and priests from Radio Santa Maria followed up the charge with a warning to Catholics. The Dominican Revolutionary party complained to the Dominican Bishops that voters were faced with moral compulsion anti that the party could not go into the election in such circumstances. (More than 95 per cent of the nation's three million citizens are Catholics.] The Dominican Bishops replied to the party: "We reiterate the official stand of the Church in the Dominican Republic which is a position of strict neutrality in the present circumstances, leaving to the conscience of the individual Catholic the choice of the present candidates for whom the electorate is about to vote." Bosch was reportedly asking that the Bishops say

whelher or not they consider him a communist. Last month, the Dominican Bishops, in a joint statement, cited a 1949 Vatican decree which forbids Catholics to co-operate with communism. Bosch, 53, who fought the late dictator Rafael L. Trujillo for 25 years from exile, is considered—along with Dr. Viriato Fiallo, 67, of the rightist National Civic Union —one of the leading candidates among the seven running for the presidency.

To Be Elected The Dominicans are scheduled to elect a president, vice-president, and a congress of 27 senators and 74 deputies to take over from a seven-man Council of State. The council was set up after Trujillo's assassination in May, 1961, to govern the country provisionally until free elections could be held. The Council did not have any immediate word on the party's demand, but itwarned interference that in the elections by "foreign elements" would not be tolerated. Bosch's promises of dividing government-owned properties have won him support of farm workers an the unemployed. He pposes to divide the govern ment-owned sugar properties in co-operatives and to disvribute all other government-owned land. He also promises fishing and livestock co-operatives and communal dining rooms for the hungry in towns with a population of over 10,000. In their November Oate-

ment, the Dominican Bishops expressed fear of voter apathy because the year of provisional government has seen so much political cOnfusion and fragmentation of parties. There are 26 political parties now active in the 18,700 square mile republic. They warned Catholics that they have a grave duty to vote, and said: "There are parties of extremist ideas, both of the right and the left, which would deny the most elementary human and Christian rights, should they win." In a statement issued last June, the Bishops warned the people that the republic is in "very serious danger" of falling under communist rule. Despite the fact that the communist party is outlawed it is working vigorously under the name of the Popular Dominican Movement. Its leader, Maximo Lopez Molina, was directing it from secret headquarters before he was deported during the recent Cuban missilesite crisis. P•441,14.#4,041.04.4.4411 11.04411.144NPIP4.4 , 0 ,

Shanagolden, Ireland: One of the more than 30 missionaries expelled from the Sudan in November said here that Sudanese officials told him only that he was ordered out of that African nation because he had finished his work. He is Father Thomas Brouder of Mill Hill Fathers who is now on leave here in his hometown. He reported that another Irish member of the Mill Hill Fathers was exiled from Sudan, Fr. Edward Sloane of Belfast, has gone to start a new mission in Kenya among a romote African tribe. expulsion, his Before Father Sloane had been arrested for preaching in -church on the ground that the tills illegally made church a "teaching establishment." But the magistrate who heard the case dismissed it. Since the Sudan won independence in 1956, its Moslem-dominated government

has sought to Islamize the part-pagan, part-Christian southern part of the country, the religion from which the naissioners were expelled. The government has allowed no new missionaries to enter the Sudan and in 1957 it nationalized all mission schools. Earlier this year it

decreed the Missionary Societies Act, a law which prohibits all proselytizing and provides the legal basis for the expulsion of missioners. Father Brouder, headmaster of a mission school in Malakal taken over five years ago, said he was given

six weeks to leave the Sudan after receiving his notice of expulsion. When he asked why he was being ordered out of the country, he said, the authorities claimed that he had completed his work there and that from now on Sudanese were going to take it over.

Moonlighting * A WIFE AND MOTHER RECENTLY WROTE: "In many homes, fathers are obliged to spend so much time away from their families simply earning a living. They often must work part time, besides their regular jobs, take any overtime they can get, or spend many extra hours planning. Fathers in such homes see their school children only in the bathroom mirror on weekdays. Mothers carry the additional burden of discipline, extra decisions and the problem of dividing limited time and energy according to the needs of each child. Children react to the absence of their father by acting up in ways they never would otherwise. "Certainly, a great deal of patience and prayer is necessary. Perhaps a re-examination of values in a secular world would help, too."

and to her hospital patients. It grew out of the TV work of Mary-knoll Father James F. Hyatt. Seeking the help of TV actress Akiko Wanibuchi in preparing his weekly fiveminute programme, TV Father Hyatt was persuaded by the enthusiasm of Miss Wanibuchi and her older sister, movie actress Haruko Wanibuchi, that the opportunity was at hand to make a full-length feature film.

The story was filmed at a Kyoto hospital and is based on actual incidents. Akiko Wanibuchi, who plays the heroine, donated her services. With assistance from Shochiku, one of Japan's oldest movio studios, Father Hyatt kept his budget to 0.000, which was supplied by the Good Shepherd Movement. The movie had its premiere in Kyoto in October at a gathering of civic and educational leaders. The Sunday NIainichi, a leading Japanese news magazine, devoted two pages to the project. The verdict of a Japanese film trade monthly that is "Father Hyatt, in his first theatrical feature, has created an extremely effective Miss characterization of Wanibuchi without religious cliches or propaganda.-

Far be it from any bachelor to offer advice on fan finances. Never having had the challenge of match' one man's income to a whole family's outgo, any suggestions he might offer would be received by Everyman with the same air of disbelief shown towards Kruschev posing as a friend of the Pope. The bachelor and the benedict just don't operate in the same sphere. Technical advice should be the prerogative of the proven technicians in the field. However, even as a bald-headed barber is allowed to cut hair, so may a celibate offer a few observation.on the growing practice among husbands and father's of moonlighting, The average healthy man can take on extra work over a given period of time without too much drain on his physical and emotional resources. An extra long sleep now and then and some Sunday afternoon naps cart restore his energies. However, if moonlighting becomes a routine part of his life, he will soon get emotionally stale, physically tired and spiritually dried up. The hardest thing for him to do will be to get up in the morning because he will have no interest in what another day might bring. He will become irritable with his wife, impatient with his children and inclined more and more to stop in the corner bar for a few quick ones, just a temporary release from the extreme boredom of his life

* TREADMILL It would be wise for the moonlighter to determine what the extra burden of work is costing him as far as his emotional and physical health is concerned. Equally. he should check into the strain that may be put on his relations with his wife and children. How much time does he spend with them and. more importantly, what is the quality of his. attention? If he is giving so much of himself to earning a living, he will have that much less of himself to give to them. The gift of himself is far more important than the gift of the things his money can buy for them. The conscientious husband and father is aware of his, role as the economic man — probably too much so. He can get caught up ill the treadmill of earning and spending. and never getting anywhere economically. This brings about not only a keen sense of frustration, but a feeling of desperation. It was Thoreau who said that most men lead lives of quiet desperation. Every husband and father should realise that, while he has the primary human responsibility for the support of is family, it is always. as the phrase has it, "under God." He needs a constant and strong dose of the virtue of hope. Perhaps a little meditation on the words of Christ would relieve some of the pressure. He said, "Therefore, do not be anxious. saying. 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What are we to put on?' . . . for your Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His justice, and all these things shall be given you besides" (Matthew 6:31-34). The virtue of hope combined with a little prudence in spending is an unbeatable combination. But more on that another time.

A man sitting next to me on an Osaka-bound train came up with the most original reply: "The ecumenical council had better strongly condemn the testing and use of of atomic weapons, or there soori won't be any people left in the world to hold councils about." A Buddhist priest agreed that the council would do much to promote religious and international harmony, but added: "Attendance by observers from Buddhism and the other great non-Christian religions would make it even more effective as an instrument for world peace and religious cordiality."

liberations on the lay apostolate, liturgy and Church regulations." Professor Matsumoto of Tokyo's Keio University emphasised the need for dynamic reappraisal of the lay apostolate in the council. "The prominence of the lay apostolate on the ecumenical council's agenda is heartening to Catholic laity, especially in a non-Christian country like Japan. It will need more dynamic leadership, better organisation and human reorientation. Catholics will have to co-operate more with each other, and be more charitable in their thinking and approach to non-Catholics."

Mr. Anzai, distinguished lecturer and Catholic authority on comparative religions, had this to say: "We look to our bishops as our fathers in Christ.

Liturgy Should Serve People

The Second Vatican Council has shown that the "glory o f the liturgy" lies in its serving people, not enthralling them. Julius Cardinal Doepfner,

speaking at Christmas morning Mass in his cathedral at Munich, said the Church knows it has responsibilities in the present era. The Church itself feels the pressing need to show that the Word of God is rooted and living in her very centre, he said. He added that tht. Word must be preached emphatically by liturgy, sermon, catechism and personal exhortation. The Cardinal paid this tribute to His Holiness Pope John XXIII: "We cannot A congregation of nearly thank the Lord enough that 30.030 people, including at a time when .the papacy non-Christs ome prominent is a stumbling block for so ians, attended a Christmas many non-Catholic ChristP ontifical High Mass in Bomians, Pope John in so humble at bay which Valerian ;1 manner is demonstrating C ardinal Gracias presided. pal ernal stewardship in the The Cardinal Archbishop house of God and fortifying Bombay told them in his of service to our brethren.

The statement, issued by t he - local Haitian embassy, declared that the latest prelate to be expelled, Bishop Paul Robert of Les Gonaives, had slandered Haitian President Francois Duvalier in the course of his attacks on voodoo. The embassy claimed that Duvalier was trying to preserve voodoo only in his role as an ethnologist. "Voodoo is only a ritual that does not have the force of sect or creed,- said the embassy. "It is an attempt to preserve the folklore of a race, and in no way undermines religion." However-. in Paris the exiled Bishop Robert has dedared that the Duvalier regime is seeking to crush at any cost the resistance of Catholics to the pagan practices of voodoo, and is determined to eliminate the French clergy that is firmly fighting such practices.

"The clergy are not free to ignore its challenge, nor is this apostolate confined to priests," declared Archbishop Morris, president of the Catholic Television Committee of Ireland. He spoke at a workshop on television held at the Telefis \Eireann studios here and attended by priests lvho have appeared during the past year on Telefis Eireann religious programme. Noting that one of the subjects treated at the first session of the ecumenical council was the role of the Mass communications media, Archbishop Morris said the workshop here was "especially topical."

Mystery Of Obelisk In St. Peter's Square New light has been shed on the mysterious obelisk that stands in the vast square gyptian E in front of St. Peter's basilica. It was the light of a midsummer sun that gave the first clue to the solution now advanced by Filippo Magi, director of excavations and archeological research in Vatican City. the obelisk's S tudying ancient Roman inscription one brilliant August day, Magi noticed telltale marks of an earlier inscription and proceeded to decipher them. He discovered that the obelisk had first been erected

Private Mass V ATICAN CITY His Holiness Pope John XXIII explained that he offered his Christmas Eve Mass in his private chapel to keep close to the spirit of Christmas. 7ope John told about a :en of his closest collaborators. the only ones to attend the Mass: "Kindly understand Us, beloved sons, if again this night as in past years We have preferred for the Quistmas Mass the simplicity of Our private chapel to the majestic vaults of the Roman churches. "We have allowed Ourself to be enveloped, as it Were. by the atmosphere of the humble churches of the country or mountains, by the atmosphere of the social institutions which are the refuge of innocent people who are poor and derelict, where hidden tears are dried away and soothed, where evident but insufficiently publicized injustices are repaired." The Pope added that "We think also of you. beloved sick people, beloved aged. Who suffer pain and solitude, you who turn pain and loneliness into great merit for Yourselves" and contribute to the good of humanity.

by a Roman prefect of Egypt, Caius Cornelius Gallus, It poet, soldier and politician who fell into disgrace and died by his own hand. The present inscription by the Emperor Caligula was cut into the stone after the bronze letters of the original inscriptions of Gallus were removed. Holes left by the rivets which had attached the earlier legend on the obelisk were what first attracted Magi's attention. They also enabled him to reconstruct the original. The earlier inscription announced that the obelisk had been erected in a place known as Forum Juliunr by Gallus. That place, unknown today, was named after the birthplace of Gallus in Gaul, Forum Julii, the modern city of Frejus on the French Riviera.

He incurred the displeasure of Augustus Caesar and was relieved of his post by the Roman Senate, which also confiscated all his property and condemned him to exile. He committed suicide in 26 B.C. All that had been known of the obelisk's history until now was that it had been brought from Egypt to Rome by the Emperor Caligula to adorn an arena on Vatican hill known as the Vatican circus and that it was placed in its present position in 1586 by Pope Sixtus V. It is widely held that St. Peter died near the obelisk in the circus and some hold that this obelisk was in fact the goal post or trophy referred to in early Christian writings as a symbol of martyrdom. It lacks Egyption hieroglyphics. Among the obelisks in Rome. the 83-feet high monument is second in size only to the one near the BRYANT & WATERS — Now

Archbasilica of St. John Lateran, which is 106 feet high. The problems of its removal to its present site. under the direction of the architect Domenico Fontana are still legendary in Rome. The most celebrated legend says that spectators were bound under pain of death to keep silent, but that one cried out that the ropes raising it upright were about to catch fire from friction and thus. saved the monument known to millions. In a report on Magi's work on the obelisk, the Vatican City daily, L'Osservatore Romano, styled it -the most sensational archeological discovery of the year."

Pope John spent Christmas morning at the hospital visiting all the wards and then sitting with the children while presents were distributed to them. The Pontiff was greeted at the hospital by its president, Giulio Pacelli, a nephew of Pope Pius XII. As he toured the wards, Pope John asked the children their names and ages. The Pope obviously enjoyed his chats with them. Later during the distribution of gifts the Pope again talked with the young patients and showed enjoyment as the youngsters exclaimed over their presents and asked questions about how they worked. •

Children Pleased The youngsters—after recovering from an initial awe at the Pope's presence—behaved like children the world over when they are suddenly given toys. When Pepe John asked nine-year-old Romolo Natoli how he felt, the boy echoed the worid's interest by replying: "Fairly well, how do you feel?" Another child asked the Pope what his name was. The Pope answered: "Before I was called Joseph, but now everyone calls me John."

POPE ATTENDED CHOIR CONCERT His Holiness Pope John XXIII relaxed during the waning hours of 1962 by attending a concert given by the celebrated choir of the Sistine Chapel. The concert took place in t he Vatican's Clementine Hall on the afternoon of New Year's eve. The Pope, the cardinals of Rome and many other top Vatican clerical and lay dignitaries were present. That night, Pope John went to the window of his apartment to acknowledge the cheers of participants in the annual torchlight procession of Roman municipal employees. The procession of street cleaners. trolleycar workers and other city servants had formed w the Gesu church in dovvn town Rome and paraded to St. Peter's square. The Pope came to his window and greeted the workers at about 10 p.m.

Secretary's Mass Earlier in the evening. the Pope's Secretary of State, A mIeto Cardinal Cieognani, had offered Pontifical Mass at the Gesu Church in the presence of Rome's mayor and members of the city council. Father Jean Baptiste Janssens, S.J., Superior General of the Society of Jesus, which conducts the Gesu church, was presented a silver chalice and two votive candles by the mayor. The gifts were the city's annual present to the main Jesuit church. "the Pope had spent the last Sunday of the year quietly. About 25,000 people braved the rain to gather

in St. Peter's square at noon and he came to his apartment window to lead them in reciting the Angelus and to bless them. ww

Holy See Returns Chalice A chalice presented to the Holy See by the Irish government three decades ago has been returned to Dublin as a token of the affection of His Holiness Pope John X XIII. The chalice was presented by the Irish government to the papal legate to the International Eucharistic Congress held in Dublin in 1932. Pope John sent the chalice recently to Archbishop John C. McQuaid of Dublin, who has given it to the Dublin pro-cathedral. Accompanying the chalice was a message from Amleto Cardinal Cieognani, papal Secretary of State, who said the gift was intended as "a token of (Pope John's) benevolence- and a memento of the late Pope Pius XI and Lorenzo Cardinal Lauri, who was papal legate to the Eucharistic Congre-

Briefly addressing the children, the Pope told them that he was in "perfect health." But he added, "I'm not ready to run a race or take part in a contest."

Busy Schedule Referring to the fact that he had celebrated Mass the night before and two other Christmas Masses that morning, the Pontiff said that this was enough to make people "believe the doctors when they say that the Pope has had few ailments but that he is well and does not lack anything, neither in eyes, tongue nor ears, nor where the heart is concerned. which is the most beautiful and precious gift." The Pope returned to the Vatican at 11.45 a.m. and appeared at his window overlooking St. Pet( • square to bless the thousarals who had gathered there despite the heavy rain. Pope John prayed and then spoke briefly. He stressed that everyone must be T1( SETS DOOGUES

aware of the "intense sense of duty which must urge all to refrain from dwelling in happy contemplation on the joys of Christmas and to proceed onward with great spirit in order to arrive at its practical, personal and social application . . . . No philosophical study, no effort for modernization of organizations are of any use if the heart is not completely open to outpourings of Heavenly light and grace." The Pope also told the crowd that "the new course of history for the greater spreading of civilization for every nation began at Bethlehem. From Bethlehem came the encouragement for the application of life together as a society, for the defeat of selfishness, for the intelligent knowledge of the needs of others, for the law of forgiveness applied often and for the triumph of perfect brotherhood."

Xaverians Glad Of Increasing Number Of Interested Visitors

A refreshing feature of recent Xaverian functions has been th number of new faces present.

The committee constantly emphasises the fact that visitors are always welcome at all functions whether they come with a view to actually joining the club or not. Many who come do not in fact become "regulars." Others appear only periodically but are most welcome always since it is one of the objects of the club to come into contact with as many young Catholics as possible. In fact the increased activity of the past year has resulted in the acquisition of such a wide circle of friends that seldom now is there an identical crowd at two successive functions, although numerically the attendances may be approximately equal. There may be some who would like to attend occasionally but who do not do so because they feel that one should attend regularly or not at all. This is not so A small charge is made at any function which involves the club in expense and in the case of people who are not financial members this charge is increased by one shilling or two. This procedure has always worked out fairly and it

means that occasional visitors need have no qualms about imposing on the goodwill of club members. The New Year's Eve party provided an example of this in practise since there existed a high proportion of the newcomers amongst crowd of some seventy people present. These visitors enjoyed themselves and at the same time contributed to the general success of the evening. The committee is at present preparing the programme for the next month or tvvo.- In the meantime tennis continues each Friday evening at St. Mary's Tehnis Club courts in Britania Road, Leederville. Enquiries concerning the club may be made of Miss Bernadette McCormack at 67 4450 or Neville Smyth at 24 2400.

There are vacancies for "day scholars" onl yat the girls' school and vacancies for "boarders" and "day scholars" at the boys' school. About 150 students will be six including attending leaders from Melbourne and twelve from Adelaide. An interesting programme has been arranged covering all aspects of student life.

The flaws of the performance flowed inevitably from Strauss's writing for Octavian, aggravated by Jurinac being such a pure soprano. Strauss wrote the role of the Marshchalin for a mature soprano of a deep lower register: Swarzkopf can do full justice to the music so we heard the incongruity of the woman singing lower than the man in the Marsscenes. chalin Octavian However, if we start to examine opera in terms of reality, we would soon lose one of the most fascinating art-forms.

Choir Sings Well In Festival Programme In the realm of music, the adage "familiarity breeds contempt" is the opposite of the truth, at least with worthwhile music. It was inevitable that the f amiliar music in St. Mary's Cathedral Monday last should be more lovable than the unknown although sacred music should not inspire thoughts "the devil you know is better than the devil you don't. The first half of the programme was given by the

style which might have sometimes been a trifle too vigorous. The most satisfying item was the most Palestrina's — familiar 'Popule Meus" sung by a double choir. The double choir was also used for the only piece not a motet — the lovely `Resonet in Laudthus.' The annotations by Fr. Lynch in this part of the programme were excellent and this contrasted very much with the poor programme notes written for the second half of the evening. The first three items of the second half were so remote and unfamiliar from our musical experience as to be a foreign land and the notes were as little help as a school atlas would be on an African safari.

Handel's early Cantata spirat dum "Coeiestis aura" failed to come alive in spite of Molly McGurk's siriging and, but for the name on the programme. it would be indistinguishable from any run-of-the-mill Italian composer of the period. Purcell was represented

Mozart's Church Sonata in B Flat was like coming home. Although heard for the first time and decidedly not one of his major work,. it was immediately comprehensible and provided a yardstick for the excellent playing of Graham Wood, Stan KoN.varski, Brian Meddemmen and Trevor Jones. With the final duets, the t wo sopranos (Molly McGurk and -Betty Hooper) also returned to familiar fields with "0, lovely Peace" and -Come, Smiling Liberty" from "Judas Maccabeus" and "I Waited for the Lord" from Mendelssohn's "Hymn of Praise."

dicard WORLD of SPORT I Y.C.W. ATHLETES DO FAIRLY WELL The first competition day of 1963 was marred for the club by poor attendance. Jim Crawford won the 3000 metres steeplechase in a battle of tactics from Frank Honey of Canning Districts Club. Jim reappeared later in the afternoon and convincingly won the A grade 6 miles. Jim's ‘iersatilify is such that he is willing and capable of competing in any event from the 220 yd. sprint to the 6 miles.

but make no mistake, the main object of the team is to win back the Ashes. It it claimed that the team is a happy one which is of great importance and as it includes such class batsmen as Dexter, Sheppard and Col.vdrey, and outstanding bowlers, "proved w reckers" in Trueman and Statham, the one win advantage in England's favour to date could be improved upon before the remaining three Tests are concluded. If Test cricket is on the wane, and many claim it is, it could be largely due to the continued success of the Australians in Test matches. When England won the second Test recently it was its first Test win in Australia since 1955. It will only need to improve on present form to restore much of the interest lost in the series. Australians have some consolation in knowing that the. only thing certain in cricket is its uncertainty.

All and sundry should feel happy with the excellent way the Commonwealth Games were handled. True there were one or two minor mix-ups but nothing of a serious nature and if as hinted, that a profit in the vicinity of £50,000 has been made then there can be little wrong with the way things are done in Perth. Well known owner Stan O'Neill, hoping to remind us of the recent Perth Games, has named one of his 2-y-o's Antao after the brilliant Kenyan flier who won the two main sprint

events at the Perth Games. This Rego colt is bred to sprint and will soon make his first appearance. W.A. CRICKET: A t long last the interstate cricket conference recently decided to ease the subsidy payments by the W.A.C.A. It is hoped that the Association will soon be strong enough to entice a few top liner players here and build up a strong W.A. Shield side. It seems the only way of getting a much wanted Test in Perth. FULL MARKS:

Good programmes and high stakes of a nature not seen in Perth before were provided by our Turf Club and Trotting Association over the Christmas and New Year carnivals. Overall results were against backers, but excellent racing was witnessed at both tracks. There seemed to be fewer quids about than usual at both venues, however T.A.B. has announced record holdings over the carnivals. ALL GOOD: Three and possibly four young horses to win races at Ascot during the carnival showed ability well above anything seen in Perth for a long time. The owners of three of them have stated their intention to send them to the Eastern States where it is only a question of reproducing the brilliant performances shown here to keep W.A.'s name well to the fore. Nicopolis has only started in 11 races and has won 10 of them — with ordinary luck he would have won the lot — this year he won t wo classics and three w-f -a events. He is a "ripper" but being lightly framed he will need to be nursed and have his races well spaced. Rack and Ruin is a nicely made up staying colt unlucky to be out in the same year as Nicopolis. He will do well interstate as he can both sprint and stay. Unbeaten 2-y-o Ssn O'Minx is the fatest colt seen in this State for at least the last 10 years. His galloping ability is such, that while it sounds sweeping. it is doubtful if there is a horse of his age in Australia who could down him in a sprint. Kinglike, winner of two 2-y-o events this year, gives every promise of being an outstanding colt next. year. How fortunate is Furza Brady to own both this fellow and Nicopolis.

TENNIS FUTURE: Is the dominance in tennis held by Australia for so many years coming to an end? While we have many promising young players coming on we have none ready to step into the shoes of Laver or Fraser. Perhaps before the introduction of open tennis, a distinct possibility we will be able to pull a couple out of the hat. You may be sure "Fox" rarry Hopman is on the job. Rod Laver must have put up a good showing in his first professional match against the mighty Hoad. Beaten but not disgraced despite first up jitters might epitomise the match. With e xperience he seems sure to justify the high figure o ffered for his services. BIG SUCCCESS:

Racegoers at Ascot on Saturday saw 2-y-o Kinglike, from the powerful Campbell stable, put up a very smart performance when he beat Nintoku with ease in the 6 fur. Flying Hcp.

SPORT IN GENERAL From Cricket Through To Racing TEST CRICKET: Despite early failures it now seems, after a gooct run in the second Test, that England has sent out a first class side to recover the "Ashes." Doutbless there is much truth in the statements of our visitors that they are here to brighten cricket,

CONTRAST It is impossible to compare the dashing win of COUNT SPUTNIK on Saturday when he just beat BIG BOB, with his recent inglorious display in the Railway Stakes as he carried only 7.6 in the stakes against 8.10 on Saturday he tricked most punters. Some will add his name to the now long list of "in and out" customers.

HOW GOOD? This stylish chestnut colt by KNIGHT'S ROMANCE is still green, yet was able to use strides of a length seldom produced by a youngster, His astute trainer stated that he might give him another run or two before letting him up as he needs experience. It is hard to compare this fellow's two wins with the four wins of unbeaten colt Son 0' Minx but from what has been seen to date the exceptional speed displayed by the latter colt puts him on top for this season at least. DIXIE LOU CASE After two adjournments stewards concluded their enquiry into a reversal of form shown by DIXIE LOU when she won a 7 -furlong welter on January 1. The stewards recommended that the nomination of the filly be refused for a period of two months as in evidence it was stated that due to something unknown all was not right with her. Even allowing for a certain fever common to her sex. particularly at this time of the year. many punters consider that the recommendation should be for years rather than months as the same thing could happen again and again. ATTRACTIVE CHERRY VELVET gave a good performance when she ran third in the Novice Hcp. 7i-furlong. over Having only her second run this season she showed good speed after getting away slowly. Her turn is just around the corner. Well ridden by Bob Davies the winner WOTTARA'S GEM gave trainer Bill Kirby a change of luck but he was not happy about the short price het about the mare.

TOO MUCH The 9.2 carried by BAY COUNT in the Imperial Stakes proved too much for him and in a small field he could not even gain a place despite his easy win in the Perth Cup recently. The winner ALL INDIA nicely handled by Frank Flannery deserved a win as he haa run will in all his recent races, a drop in weight was a great help. PLUNGED Backed from 5s to 2s at one stage, COBAR could do no better than run second In the Advance Hcp. of 6furlongs. His rider showed poor judgement in trying to "mix it" with speedy PRIDE OF JANEIRO who ran fifth. Very soon this horse could strike a weak field, go to the front and stay there. Keen observers were impressed by the strong finishing run of the third horse MISS FARAH. AND AGAIN The decisive way LISAB won the final Welter of a mile suggests that there are more and better wins in store for her. PEEDONG had the run of the race but the 9.8 seemed to stop him while GAY GUI' was used as pacemaker a role which does not suit him. Ridden with more patience he will soon improve on that run.

R ADIO

ON MARRIAGE

Rev. Dr. Rumble

"Catholics And The Fabian Society" R.J.M., South Australia: Am I right in saying that Catholics are free to accept or reject the non-Communist Social International, the A.L.P., and the Fabian Society? R. : Yes, as far as any express prohibitions on the part of their Church are concerned. Left to his own conscience, a Catholic, after due consideration, could well be convinced that neither the non - Communist Socialist International nor the A.L.P. officially advocate, today at any rate, what Pope Pius XI condemned as the real Socialism which cannot be reconciled with principles permitting Catholie support. Greater difficulty would arise for a Catholic in trying to convince himself that he was free in conscience to join the Fabian Society. A comparison of the principles and of the kind of Socialism most Fabians have in mind with the teachings of the Papal Encyclicals leaves room for serious doubt as to whether Fabian Socialism can be rescued from classification as a form of the real Socialism Pope Pius XI condemned. The problem here is the difficult one of supplying general- principles to a particular case; and, as with other groups devoted to

political and social reform, one must allow for more or less fluid theories subject to change. But the predominant outlook of most Fabian Socialists is not reassuring. " CATHOLIC P ARTICIPATION" Q.: I believe Catholic par ticipation in such societies as the Fabians would go a long way in making Catholic Social Teachings understood, and help prevent extreme views on social problems. R.: My own personal opinion — and I can offer nothing more — does not coincide with yours as regards membership of Fabian Societies. There are differences of outlook between different- Fabian groups and individual members of such groups. The 1949 N.S.W. booklet I quoted earlier admitted that it did not sn.2A for all Fabians. But I ei •itainly think that most Fabreaction:111P'; ians are against the revisionary oral moderating tendencits of the Socialist International and of the A.L.P. Most Fabians, if not positively anti-religious, are irreligious secularists holding a materialistic concept of man and his destiny, and entertaining the long-term ambition of a ocialisation as complete as that of Marxian Communism even though it is -to come by evolutionary parliamentary processes rather than by class-warfare and eventual revolution. Fabians who do not think in such a way would be the exception: and the prospect of Catholics influencing the majority seems so small that it would not compensate for increasing the membership and influence of which Societies Fabian would result from Catholics joining them also. There are other and better ways in which Catholics can promote the understanding and application of their Christian social teachings. C RITICS AND CONSCIENCE Q.: Because of my views on these subjects some of my Catholic friends say I

should be excommunicated. You can merely tell !hem of your consolation that they are not in a position to do the excommunicating. No episcopal injunctions have been issued against membership of the A.L.P., or even of Fabian Societies in Australia; and one's personal opinion does not impose an obligation in conscience on others who do not share it. But every Catholic has an obligation in conscience, above all where Fabian Socialism is concerned, to look deeper

than such sensible and pracheal proposals as it offers to the basic principles animating most of those who support it; and to ask himself 1% hether it is really wise and prudent to throw in his lot with them, even though he is told that, in order to be a Fabian, he need not subscribe to principles the majority regard as basic, but may dissent from them. After all, such measures of reform as do meet with his approval, can equally well be promoted without any need of joining the Fabian Society.

CHRISTIAN "RULE OF FAITH"

PUZZLED, "Erewhon": We Protestants see in the defined dogma of Mary's bodily assumption into heaven an importation which is not port, of the original gospel. R.: That is almost inevitable if one is going to restrict his beliefs as a Christian to the sheer letter of t he Bible only, and exclusively to what is expressly recorded there, with no allowance for the living tradition and teaching authority of the Church. Before any headway can be made in discussing the dogma of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, an earlier problem must be settled, namely, whether our guide as to the contents of the original gospel is to be the Bible only, or the Bible as constituting the "family papers" of the Church established by Christ, and interpreted in accordance with her living traditions and her infallible teaching-authority under the inspiration and protection of the Holy Spirit. The latter is the Catholic view. It is not surprising that Protestants, rejecting it. reject also the consequences that follow from it. - IS ALL IN SCRIPTURE' Q.: If dogmatic development is justified because the Church has to explain and unfold the apostolic'Deposit of Faith," are defined dogmas there in clear propositions or only in logical implications? R.: They could be tilt re t ither explicitly or only Q.: Is all God's revelation discoverable in scripture? "THE RECORD," by courtesy of Station 2SM, Sydney, publishes some of Dr. Rumble's radio answers each week. Queries from our readers (which must be accompanied by name and address of sender) are answered over the radio in their due turn, which Involves a delay of some weeks Replies to them may or may not then be among those chosen for publication in these columns.

R.: Yes, in the sensa that every revealed truth is there at least implicitly. But it may be there only virtually or, as it were, in germ as an oak tree is contained — although not obviously — in an acorn. In such a case, a given revealed truth might not be discoverable by the natural reasoning of the most profound theologian or scripture scholar, but only by a special supernatural insight of the Church herself due to the influenc, of the Holy Spirit. D OGMA OF THE A SSUMPTION Q.: If it is there implicitly, is it made explicit by h uman logic? R.: Not necessarily, although in some cases it might be. But whether theologians are able or not by logic to arrive at explicit conclusions concerning things contained only implicitly in scripture do( not really matter where t he faith is concerned. Our faith is not in the intellectual proficiency of theologians, but in the teacherauthority of, the Catholic Church. When the Church defines a dogma, she does not derive any authority from her theologians for doing so: and theologians t hemselves are as obliged a nybody else to make an act of faith in what the Church has defined to be a divinely -revealed truth. When Pope Pius XII', on November 1. 1959, defined the dogma of the Assumption, he merely said: "By the authority of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and of His blessed Apostles Peter and Paul. and by the authority granted to Us, We proclaim, declare and define it as a doctrine divinely-revealed." Catholics everywhere. theologians or not. accepted that infallible definition as an absolute assurance that the doctrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. is an intearal part of God's revelation.

"ANGLICAN," SYDNEY, asked: As regards remarriage after divorce, does not Matt. 19:11-12 show; that Christ clearly taught two different standards of marriage, both lawful but one more perfect and the other less perfect? R.: Far from showing that, the passage to which you refer really shows precisely the opposite. Q.: He spoke of the ideal which some can manage with the grace of God "for the Kingdom of heaven's sake," by refraining from a second marriage when the first has broken down. R.: That interpretation cannot be reconciled with the actual account St. Matthew gives of Our Lord's teaching. Our Lord declared God's original law to have been that the two parties to a marriage must be as one person, no human power having the right to destroy the bond of union between them. When the Pharisees said that Moses had given permission for divorce and remarriage in certain circumstances, Christ declared that concession henceforth -abolished. The disciples themselves, realising the absolute nature of the prohibition, said that if the law was to be so severe, it would be better not to marry at all. To that Our Lord replied in effect: There are indeed good reasons why men should not marry, voluntarily choosing a single life for the kingdom of heaven's sake: but not everyone is capable of such self-restraint and they are the few who will feel called to that. NO "DOUBLE-STANDARD" TEACHING Q.: As I see it, Christ was allowing for a lower standard than the absolutely ideal when He said: :*All men cannot receive this saying, save those to whom it is given . . . He that is able to receive it." R.: The meaning of those words is as I have just explained them. Your own Anglican Bishop Kirk, of Oxford, says of them, in his book "Marriage and Divorce" (1948), p. 150, that the reference is not to men who have separated from their wives and for the kingdom of heaven's sake have refrained from marrying again—"a wholly unnatural meaning to get out of the phrase." The reference is to "those who have embraced a life of voluntary celibacy." Bishop Kirk had little sympathy with Rome. In his book, "Some Principles of Moral Theology," he attacks what he calls "the almost complete authoritarianism of Roman Catholic theoiogy." But where the prohibition of remarriage after divorce is concerned, he insists that we are directly confronted with the authority of Christ Himself, clearly declared in the New Testament and binding on all who profess to be Christians. Did one in good faith think otherwise, he would be sadly lacking in any true understanding of the teaching of the gospels on this particular subject.

the world's press carried the news of the .shelling of Lhasa by the Chinese Communist forces and the flight of the Dalai Lama. For more than a week the religious leader of Tibet disappeared from human ken and speculation as to his whereabouts and fate turned the eyes of the whole world on the cynical take-over by China of the peaceful mountain retreat of the Tibetan people. which had been for so many years a land of mystery. Finally, after a long period of silence, the Dalai Lama and a small retinue of followers appeared on the Indian frontier and ss as given sanctuary by Mr. Nehru. The story of that flight, and of the events which led to the Dalai Lama's decision to flee his country, is the theme of this book, and, no doubt with a little judicious assistance from the editor, David Howarth, it makes a most enthralling story. In his introduction Howarth explains how the book was written. It was first composed by the Dalai Lama in and translated Tibetan, literally into English by members of his staff.

From this translation the

editor worked out the shape and style of the English ver-

sion, deleting some sections which he felt would be of less interest, and requesting more information on other aspects which the Dalai Lama had sketched rather scantily on the assumption that these would be of little

in the village in Tibet and of the tranquil life of con-

templation which preceded the intrusion of the Chinese breathe an air of nostalgia which is most touching, and the efforts of the peace-loving youngster to find a way of avoiding bloodshel while still holding the Communists at bay are so obviously fruitless that one can only accept the fact that the ways of this world were a closed book to him. The book is well illustrated,' and the story of Tibet's fall before the Chinese juggernaut is told with a colour and realism that make it as intensely interesting as a personal narrative -which, indeed, it was in some sense. Altogether I found this book excellent reading, and most useful as an insight into a country and

interest to Western readers. The completed version was then read to and discussed

Ji the main character, who gave his assent to the editing.

By and large, therefore, the narrative can be said to be the work of the Dalai Lama himself, and certainly the simplicity of style and

a way of thinking which are completely foreign to most Western readers.

Pope John Calls

His Holiness Pope John X XIII has called for support of existing international institutions for the "maintenance and firm establishment of peace." He has also urged that space programmes be shared among all nations. 4. In reply to a speech of 4, greeting addressed to him by the ambassador of Belgium and dean of the diplomatic corps, Baron Prosper 4, Poswick, the Pope pointed out that "public opinion has 4, r ecognised that the Church 4. is working for the interest of mankind." The Church's purpose, the Pontiff continued, is to help men fulfil their primary duty of acknowledging and a worshipping God. "for it < well knows that the benefits men most earnestly seek are the consequence of that 4 duty: peace and genuine happiness in this world and 0 the next." He reminded the representatives of 50 diplomatic missions that the Church seeks no temporal dominion and that its purposes are not earthly alone. Instead. he noted, its hierarchy of Available on Orders of a values is stated in the Lord's Prayer.

Vatican Paper Slops Rumour

V ATICAN CITY: An cd:torial in L'Osservatore Romano has killed a rumour here that there was an imminent possibility of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Holy See and communist-ruled Poland. The Vatican City's daily repiied in its editorial to remarks made Zenon in Rome by Kliszko, a member of the politburo of the Polish United Workers' ( Communist) party. The paper denounced the "co-existence between materialism and C atholicism which Kliszko proposed in Rome to a group of journalists . . . allowing them to hope even for a possible concordat." Comparing Kliszko's remarks .to the history of the Church under communist rule in Poland, the paper said "no conciliation is possible between communism and religion."
