EASTER) STATES EDUCATION MOVES GIVE SOME CONCESSIONS FROM BOTH STATE PARTIES
Price 9d.
Solemn Moment
e A highly interesting rivalry, touching on the question of education justice, between different political parties in two States became evident after the New South Wales Labor Government had announced that it would allow £21 a year for certain pupils attending independent schools.
This was reported in last week's edition of one of Melbourne's Catholic paper s, "The Tribune." The paper continued its report, saying: The allowances are subject to a means test, stipulating maximum family in. . ranging from ELMO up to £2,100 and graduated according to the number of dependants and the Form each pupil is in. Mr. Bolte, Victoria's LCP Premier, promptly commented that his Governments' new system of scholarships for pupils at all State and registered schools would be more liberal than that planned for N.S.W. He said that the Victorian scholarship scheme after three years would cost £900,000 a year, or more than double that of N.S.W., and, unlike N.S.W., did not require a means test. "CONCESSIONS ARE GRUDGING" Mr. Askin, Leader of the N.S.W. Liberal Opposition, had this to say after the S tate Government announced its plan in the Budget last week: "As a result of strong and persistent demands of the OPposition, the Government has made a gesture to help
the parents of children attending secondary schools. "But the concessions to parents are grudging, coining as they do from a Government which has missed no opportunity to feather its nest well and truly in the past year. "The means test imposed on parents is far too tough and relaxation of it is essential." Mr. Askin said that the Liberal Party policy provided for "a revolutionary bursary system," which would ensure that no child
Plans For Eucharistic Festival • FULL INSTRUCTIONS concerning the Eucharistic Festival will be given in next week's "Record." Because of the change of place from Aquinas College to Perry Lakes Stadium, there will be much more scope for onlookers and everyone is urged to let their non- Catholic friends know of the change of location. The Festival will be held on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 27.
in the State would be deprived of the opportunity of the Fourth and Sixth '17ear secondary course because of the financial position of the parents. Under the Victorian scheme, about 4,000 children in non-State schools (out Of a total of 16,000 in all schools) will be granted four-year scholarships, carrying a book allowance of from £7 in Forms III and IV to £17 in Form VI, and an allowance of £25 a year towards fees. It has been estimated that about one child in every three will receive a scholarship. Sydney's "Catholic Weekly" states that, according to Catholic education authorities, the N.S.W. scheme of allowances will benefit parents on modest incomes and those with large families. • See report on Page Five: "Working Man Will Benefit By Allowances." • See also "Educational Equality For All," Page 7.

NEW TVW SERIES ON THE COUNCIL To coincide with the sitting of the second session of the Vatican Council 11, the National Catholic Radio and Television Centre will release on the national circuit one of the most extensive religious-historical documentaries ever filmed for television. This new series will commence on TVW Channel 7 on Sunday, October 13, and is called "I Am With You." The presentation is a four-part series dedicated to the late Pope John XXIII and will present for the first time on television the 2,000year history of the Catholic Church and its 21 Ecumenical Councils. Other dates when the series will be seen in Perth are November 10, December 8 and January 5. The series of "Insight," which has been running on a monthly basis, will be discontinued for the time being. By special arrangement with Vatican authorities, the producers were given permission to film the final meeting of the Central Preparatory Commission for the Second Vatican Council. LUTHER'S HOUSE To tell the story of Martin Luther, the producers sought permission from the East German Government to film Wittenberg. They

were advised that this was not possible. Through the help of a Lutheran pastor in West Berlin, Dr. Frederick Otto, the crew were finally able to procure excellent footage in Wittenberg, including the interior of Luther's house. THE BEGINNINGS The first programme of "I Am With You" is entitled "The Beginnings" and it is filmed in Jerusalem, Baalbeck, Rome, Athens, Corinth, Ephesus, Nicea and Constantinople. It will cover the period from the Ascension of Christ and the beginning of the Church to the Fourth General Council of Constantinople in 869. Scenes depicted will include the Garden of Gethsemane and the palace of Caiphas in Jerusalem. In Constantinople scenes of the Hagia Sophia, the background music departs from the original score to include authentic Byzantine chants supplied by the Greek Sacred and Secular Music Society.
Born in England and educated in Australia. Monsignor Thomas went to St. Joseph's College, Hunters the by Hill conducted Marist Brothers. His studies for the priesthood were made at St. Columba's College, Springwood and St. Patrick's Co1lege4 Manly, where he was or-k dained in November 1931. He was made a Prothonotary Apostolic in 1958. The Bishop-elect has been National Director for the Propagation of the Faith for about 17 years and has ,-isited Perth many times.

RECORD
DEADLOCKS WILL BE AVOIDED BY NEW RULES GIVEN TO COUNCIL FATHERS
The Moral Obligation Of Safety
VATICAN CITY.— Revised rules governing the second sessionof the Ecumenical Council promise to prevent any deadlock such as the one which Pope John XXIII had to step in to solve personally last session. A new edition of the book of regulations for the council, made public three days before the start of the second session, also provided several additions designed to give greater power to council Fathers on the minority side of questions under debate. The revised regulations were approved by His Holiness Pope Paul VI "after having heard the council Fathers." L'Osservatore Romano, Vatican City daily, in an explanatory accompanying publication of the new edition, said that except for the few innovations and modifications, the 70artic1es of the old regulations remain the same. Continued in effect is the requirement of a two-thirds majority vote to approval of the whole or of a part of a schema, or council statement. The same is also required for an amendment to a schema. But in order to postpone or to conclude discussion of a schema, the majority required is reduced to an absolute one50 per cent of the members voting plus one.
* INTERVENED This provision would circumvent the situation which occurred last November when a crisis devloped over the council's schema on Divine Revelation. The original text was a controversial one, and a vote was taken on whether to continue discussion. The opponents of the draft failed by 106 votes to achieve the required two-thirds majority. Thus the prospect was that lengthy discussion would have to continue on a document withdrawn and having a new special joint commission set up to restudy the whole question.
* FIFTY TOGETHER Tlie new regulations provide that after a schema text is in an "advanced stage" of discussion, fifty council Fathers have a right to band together to propose a substitute document. They are to submit their alternative to the four cardinals who are the moderators of the council. The moderators in turn decide whether to pass the substitute schema on to the council Co-ordinating Commission, which determines what final action is to be taken. In the meetings of the council's commissions, five council Fathers petitioning ret vote instead of the custogether may ask for a sectomary vote — in commission sessions—by a show of hands.
O FFICIAL
• Three Fathers peitioning together may request of the president of their commission to name an expert whom they consider useful A to their commission. Father may request permission to address a commission of which he is not a member. But granting him permission to speak — and the conditions under which he may speak—depend on the vote of the commission members.
OCTOBER 27: 3 p.m. — Procession in honour of Christ the King, Perry Lakes Stadium.
* FASTER FLOW The revised rules allow the Fathers to sumit their speeches in writing without A delivering them orally.
Father may also yield his turn to speak if he finds that what he had planned to say has been treated by another speaker. L'Osservatore Romano in its explanatory articles said the main criteria for the revisions "seem to be a greater expediting of the work of the council and the freedom of the council Fathers to speak." It added that care was apparently given so that "minorities" would have a greater voice.
BISHOP HITS OUT AT BUSINESS GREED Money - greedy businessmen, foisting on the public so-called entertainments saturated with sex suggestions offending Christian morality, were vehemently denounced by His Lordship Bishop Fox auxiliary Bishop to Archbishop Mannix of Melbourne. He reminded parents that they had a part to play in a crusade to clean up the entertainment field. Film producers, entrepreneurs and managements of newspapers, radio and were stations television among those responsible for much of today's youth delinquency, the Bishop declared. Dr. Fa( was preaching the sermr n at the High Mass celebratf_d at St. Patrick's Cathedral for the success of the Second Vatican Council. His Lordship said it was significant that Pope Paul should have specified especially one form of penance to be carried out for the success of the Council. This was that the people would abstain from attending certain entertainments which too often, he said, are immoral and censurable.
"Surely," Bishop Fox continued, "the Pope was referring to those so-called entertainments foisted on the public by money greedy executives and entrepreneurs and which are saturated with sex suggestions offending Christian morality. G RAVE THREAT FOR Y OUNG PEOPLE
"Such entertainment presents a grave threat to proper sexual behaviour, especially for young people. "Those responsible for motion pictures which give undue emphasis to sex, sexy songs on the radio, sexy inuendoes on television programmes, strip tease acts, even sexy advertisements and those who allow these same advertisements to be published in newspapers and other publications, will have to accept the blame and responsibility for a lot of the delinquency of our day.

"Why do the public and especially young boy; and girls have to be subject to the growing amount of sex subjects presented for so called entertainment ?" he asked. "Why do they have to be subjected to such items of so-called news as presented by the Press, as, for example, the muck of the now famous Profumo case. "The Press deplores the increase of sexual offences and yet at the same time provides as it did in the Profunio case, matter that helps to stir up the passions of young people. "The Press (I mean by the Press not only the daily newspapers but publications of various kinds) must clean up its own house first by refraining from publishing
such intimate details of sex matters if it is to be said that it is genuinely interested in trying to solve the problem. —The entertainment field must also be cleaned up. P ARENTS HAVE PART TO PLAY TOO
"And as counselled by Pope Paul, parents also must play their part in this crusade by giving the example of not attending sexy entertainment and by advising and guiding and also using their parential authority to direct, and even command, their children in the selection of entertainments. "Then, and then only, might we hope that there would be some lessening rather than an increase of sexual offences as unfortunately is the fact today."

PORT FOR THE SAFETY W EEK CAMPAIGN WHICH ENDS
ON
SUNDAY
OC-
TOBER 13.
This week, which began on Monday with a conference opened by the Premier, the Hon. David Brand M.L.A., will highlight the deplorable fact that over 500,000 people are killed or injured in Australia each year. This is More than the population of Perth. The effort of the Churches will mainly be made on Sunday, October 13, when they will stress the need for greater safety in all sections of our community on moral and humanitarian grounds. Epilogues at the conclusion of transmission from TVW Chanel 7 have stressed the importance of accident prevention on these grounds. Three sessions of "Daily Devotional" from the A.B.C. have had Safety as their theme. In their sermons on Sunday, October 13, the clergy will have the opportunity to speak on many moral aspects of safety based on the Fifth Commandment, especially directed to the individuals responsibility under the moral law to ensure the safety of other people. His Lordship Bishop McKeon has written to all parish clergy asking their support for this project of Safety Week. When asked what has safety to do with theology, a spokesman from the National Safety Council of Western Australia said:
"It is not enough to preach sermons or be your brother's keeper on traffic, home, industrial, water, air or any other form of safety as a moral and social imperative. "The whole business of safety and security in industry, traffic, and in the home ( where probably a majority of all accidents occur), resolves finally to acceptance of the fundamental obligation of man as a moral as well as physical individual created in the image of God, to regard life — his own as well as that of his fellow creature — as infinitely precious. "The death of one person is a tragedy — the death of a thousand is a statistic. Every time we take care of the "one's," — every time we save the "one's" — we do more than avoid tragedy, we answer correctly to God. We discharge our moral obligation. "Safety authorities are beginning to realise that the answer is not alone in publicity, slogans, education, science or even en f orcement. None of these alone, no matter how wisely or widely applied, can provide a permanent solution. "Accident prevention has its roots in the minds and hearts of men and women. It is there we must look for the answer. We need something that will change the heart of man — something that will plant love, consideration, concern, security, forgiveness, courtesy, humility, patience and understanding in the inner recesses of _what motivates a Therefore, theology man. has a vital part in the answer."

Bishop Fulton J. Sheen • • • LETTING OFF STEAM IS VERY OFTEN A MODERN WAY OF JUSTIFYING ANGER.
LETTING OFF STEAM N an age which refuses to believe in any kind of restraint, ill-temper is always justified as a means of avoiding extreme pressure. Anger has a right and w rong side. It is properly used when it prudently condemns moral w rong, as Our Blessed Lord when He drove the buyers and sellers out of the Temple. One of the strange cases of illtemper in the Scriptures is that of the elder brother who refused t o go into the feast when the prodigal brother returned. Illtemper is sometimes found in an otherwise high moral character. The elder brother was without doubt an man of principle, although he falsely accused the brother of the sin of which there is no record in fact. It is this very association of ill-temper with seeming morality which makes We temper appear so harmless. excuse the partial failure of our character on the grounds of its general success.
THE FOUNDATION OF ANGER WHAT IS THE BASIC CAUSE OF ILL-TEMPER? It is egotism and selfishness. Those who are guilty of it do not think that they are selfish. They excuse their outbursts either on the grounds that it is their nature, or because they cannot stand injustice, or some similar fragile
excuse. But temper is the bad fruit of selfishness. Sometimes the egotist wants something for himself but cannot get it; he then flies into a rage. Hardly any interval exists between the want and the satisfaction of the want, as in the case of infants who cry for things. Another form of egotism is the belief that one is not treated with as much respect or honour as he thinks he ought to have, and so he sulks; or he is opposed or contradicted in some purpose of his own and he fumes at the rejection of his wish and refuses to have anything to do with people who will not do exactly what he thinks best. A man of bad temper always cares more for himself than he does for other people. The modern expression for "letting off steam" in more ethical days was called "losing one's temper." This is a phrase which states the fact exactly—something is lost; it is the incontinence which cannot restrain the ego, the leakiness which cannot hold an impulse in, the weak hand that cannot keep its grasp on the lower nature but lets the chained beast loose to do mischief. Though the bad-tempered man prides himself on his manly sprint, actually he loses some manliness, for anger has a double effect. It clouds the intellect and incapacitates the mind for sound judgment; but it also bceomes an agent for disarranging human happiness and the charity which should exist among men.
CHARITY CHANGED A MAN The finest example of charity where ill-temper might have been used is to be found in the novel of Victor Hugo. Jan Valjean had been known for nineteen years as prisoner 5623. Turned away from door to door, he comes to the house of Bishop Myriel. The bishop orders a bedroom for him and gives him a seat at table and bids him stay the night. During the night, Valjean walks off with silver dishes. He is later captured by the police and returned to the bishop. The bishop pretends that he had made a present of the silver, and asks the thief why he did not take the candlesticks as well, for they also were his. When they were left alone together he said to the thief: "Jean Valjean, my brother, never forget that you have promised to employ this silver which I have given you in becoming an honest man. You belong no more to evil, but to good. I have bought your soul. I reclaim it from black thoughts and the spirit of perdition and give it to God." Jean Valjean was a changed man though charity. As Froude says of Carlyle, who was often irritable. and then later on became conscious of how much he had harmed his wife: "For many years after she had left him, when we passed the spot in our walks where she was last seen alive, he would bare his grey head in the wind and rain— his features wrung with unavailing sorrow. Let all this be acknowledged; and let those who know themselves to be without anger for others, freely cast stones at Carlyle

It is proposed to bring a critical Christian intelligence to bear on some of the main forms of artistic expression by which the c ontemporary imagination is conditioned and our sensibilities moulded. It is hoped to do this in a positive spirit, bringing out more clearly the part these activities play in building the city of God. Lectures are being arranged in the following subjects: "The Contemporary Film in Catholic Perspective" ( to be followed by a modern film to provoke discussion). "Is a Christian Drama Possible?" (to be followed by a play by combined dramatic societies in the Sunken Garden of the University), "The Place of Song in the Life of Faith," "Variety of Vision in the Modern Novel," "The Summons to the Supernatural Through Painting and Sculpture."

VATICAN CITY: THE SECOND OF SESSION THE SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL WILL REVOLVE AROUND THE CHURCH ITSELF, THE ROLE OF BISHOPS AND LAITY IN THE CHURCH, AND THE RELATIONS CHURCH'S WITH OTHER CHRISTIAN COMMUNIONS. The agenda for the nineweek session (September 29 to December 4) as revealed by a competent Vatican source, consists of five schemata (draft constitutions or draft decrees). They are the schemata on the Church, the Blessed Virgin Mary (which is to be considered separately, but may eventually be incorporated into the schema on the Church—as was done at the first session), the government of bishops, the lay apostolate, and ecumenism ( or inter-confessional relations). LITURGY Also, seven chapters of the liturgy schema, which were not voted upon at the first session, will be brought up for voting. The debate on other schemata will be interrupted periodically for this. Each of these chapters deals with a specific subject —Mass, t h e sacraments, Divine Office, the liturgical year, church music, church art and church furnishings. The entire schema was discussed at the first session but only the proemium (introduction) and first chapter, on "The General Principles of Renewal and Promotion of the Liturgy," were put up for approval. Since the entire liturgy schema has already been debated at the first session, no further discussion is expect ed. A new regulation for the council stipulates that fifty Council Fathers can propose an entirely n e schema as a substitute for one in an "advanced stage" of discussion, but because discussion of the liturgy schema has ended, this rule does not seem to apply.

Working Men Will Benefit By Allowances T

A CLOSE-TO-THE-ALTAR CHURCH —"~"1
HE New South Wales scheme of educational allowances will benefit parents on modest inc omes and those with large families a ccording to Catholic educati on authorities.
It follows almost immediately on similar but smaller benefits provided in the Victorian and Tasmanian State Budgets but is still not as c omprehensive as the Queensland system. The New South Wales scheme is that educational allowances worth more than £400,000 a year will be paid to parents in the lower income group whose children are enrolled in third, fourth, fifth and sixth years at independent secondary schools. The Tasmanian Budget, introduced a little more than a month ago, makes allowances to parents of children matriculation undertaking courses. The allowance amounts to £30 a year for children living at home and £60 for students living away from home. The allowances will be paid only to those parents earning £25 a week or less. It applies to children at State schools (whose parents pay nothing) as well as to at non-State children schools. Its purpose, therefore, is not so much to assist the poorer parents who have to pay school fees as to provide an incentive for more children to continue their education to matriculation level. Budget Victorian The provided for an increase in scholarships from 3730 to 16,000 a year but approximately three-quarters of these will go to children in the free State schools. The 4000 scholarships for in independent children schools carry a book allowance of from £7 in Forms Three and Four, to £17 in Form Six, together with an allowance of £25 a year towards fees. V ICTORIAN SCHEME There has been no mention of a means test in the Victorian scheme. The Queensland scheme,
Be At The Castledare field Day Sunday October 20
which was announced in July last year, provides for an allowance of £18 a year for every student attending First, Second and Third years in non-State schools and £20 a year for every student in Fourth and Fifth year. It therefore covers five years (as against four in New South Wales). It applies to every child in every non-State school and is not dependent on any means t est. Nevertheless, the total annual expenditure by the State would probably be less than in N.S.W. because of the difference in school population (there are more than twice as many children at as in school in N.S.W. Queensland). HELP TO FAMILIES Several headmasters from Great Public Schools and other large private schools say that their pupils will not benefit from the educational allowances. In practically all Cases the parents of these children would receive much higher incomes than those fixed by the means test. However, parents of children at expensive private schools benefit substantially from taxation deductions provided by the Commonwealth Government. The maximum deduction for education expenses is now £150 for each child. In effect, this means that a father who pays 10/- in the £1 tax (the rate on a taxable income of just under £5000 a year) would receive a tax rebate of £75 a year for each child at school. Poor parents, especially those with large families. who pay little income tax. receive no benefit from tax rebates. These are the ones, however, who will benefit from the State Budget allowances.
Flood Damage TAIPEI, FORMOSA: TWO CATHOLIC CHURCHES AND ADJONIING RECTORIES WERE COMPLETELY DESTROYED BY FLOODS RESULTING FROM TORRENTIAL RAINS ACCOMPANYING THE TYPHOON WHICH SWEPT NORTH TAIWAN IN SEPTEMBER. The church and house at Hsiang Pi, a Maryknoll mission in Miaoli county, Hsinchu diocese, were washed away with no trace remaining. Father William M. O'Brien, M.M., a veteran missionary from Chicago, U.S.A., built the plant in 1961. Father O'Brien had come to Taipei for supplies just prior to the typhoon and was unable to return to Miaoli, some fifty miles south of here, until after the floods. Otherwise he might well have been a flood casualty, as many of his people. Father Aquilino Miguelez, S.J., a Spaniard, barely escaped before rising river waters swept away his church and residence, and the nearby village. He took over 15 hours to walk through water and mud to the mission at Chutung, five miles away. Father Miguelez had his mission at Ching Chuan, in a Jesuit-staffed county of Hsinchu diocese adjoining Miaoli. Disrupted communications — landslides, de s t r o yed bridges, snarled telephone wires delayed details from many sectors. Official figures for all dead and missing are not yet to hand. Official figures published a few days after the floods listed less than 300. But some unofficial estimates place the number of dead in the thousands.

JOINT PILGRIMAGt LONDON.—Catholics and non-Catholics took part in what is believed to be the first organised pilgriortage since the Reformation to the tomb at Windsor Castle of England's saintly King Henry VI. They gathered in St. George's Chapel in the precincts of the royal castle at Windsor and prayed for the reunion of Christendom and for the king's canonisation. - Henry VI—the subject of three Shakespeare dramas —was King of England from 1422 to 1471 and is best known today as the founder, for the sons of poor people, of Eton College, now the most exclusiv: fee-paying college for bo:. of the upper and wealthier classes in Britain. He also founded King's College at Cambridge University. AS A BABY Succeeding to the throne as a baby of nine months, he became a scholarly and devout man reigning over a country torn by political rivalries. The beginning of the War of the Roses, a civil war, saw his deposition by the aristocrats supporting Edward IV of York. who became his successor.
He was imprisoned in the Tower of London and there found dead, possibly murdered, in 1471. After his death his tomb became a shrine for pilgrimages w he r e man: miracles are reported t. have taken place.

safe, simple way to
RELIEVE PAIN When pain strikes, relief is available quickly, safely and simply—take BEX. Headache, Toothache, Earache, Rheumatism, Neuralgia and all other nerve and muscular pains yield to the fast, soothing action of BEX. Even when the pain is very severe you can rely on BEX to bring relief rapidly, so it is a wise precaution in every home to have BEX handy always. If, however, you suffer constant pain consult your doctor who will diagnose and treat the cause, but, to relieve the pain itself, take BEX.
BEX IS BETTER

Serious Study Of Family Planning A TWO- YEAR clinical study of "periodic continence" or the "rhythm method" of family planning will soon be concluded at St. Vincent's Hospital in New York. The results of the study, which will be published in a scientific journal after they have been collated and analysed, thus far indicate that the method is "highly reliable" when carried out under controlled scientific supervision. Dr. Bernard J. Pisani, the director of St. Vincent's obstetrical - gynaecological division and supervisor of the study, said that of some 200 women participating in the experiment during its first year and a half, "no more than five or six had unwanted pregnancies and in each case we know from the woman's own testimony that she did not follow our instruction." The pioneering study is being carried out by Drs. Robert Walsh and Jules Rivkind under annual grants of EA3,150 from New York Catholic Charities and of £.114,500 from Chicago industrialist John Leslie, a nonCatholic.

revolution is SOCIAL necessary in Latin America to remove the barriers standing in the way of economic development, according to a Jesuit sociologist. Father Roger Vekemans, S.J., writing in a pamphlet analysing the potential of the Alliance for Progress, said: "The poverty of Latin America is such that it would require rapid economic development to overcome it. Revolution becomes absolutely necessary to remove the barriers that make such change impossible, since the social structures standing in the way of economic development are rigidly established." Father Vekemans said the social revolution needed is "one of rapid and radical change of the cultural, political, social and economic structures that slow down and even halt development. He added that the Alliance for Progress itseslf "has clearly acknowledged the unavoidable need for the revolution in Latin America."

Request For Political Amnesty PIERRE Cardinal Gerlier, Archbishop of Lyons, said he was praying for "complete reconciliation" among Frenchmen in a message to a pilgrimage of 3,000 persons at Ars. The pilgrims, most of f rom them repatriates North Africa, came to Ars from Lyons to pray before the tomb of St. John Vianney, 19th-century Cure of Ars, for reconciliation and for amnesty for persons convicted of political crimes. "I pray with you, with all my heart, to the holy Cure of Ars, to help us obtain the favour of a complete reconciliation," the Cardinal's message said.

BOMBAY's Catholic Association plans to publish a Catholic Layman's Directory in conjunction with the 8th International Eucharistic Congress to be held in Bombay from November 28 to December 6, 1964.
The property was seized several months ago, the reports said. The building's third floor had been occupied by city officials. Part of a Silesian seminary in Cracow and part of another Cracow seminary were also taken over. It is not yet known if these properties have been restored. Authorities justified the property seizure, the reports said, by claiming that the seminaries were too large for the decreased number of seminarians. The standard for adequate living space is reportedly 45 square feet per seminarian.

PARENTS AND FRIENDS' MAKE Aims To WIDE DRIVE TO INFORM Inform
.....44,44,04 , 041.4.44P4Y4,41.41KMININP#I ,
In a move to give the widest possible publicity to the claims of independent schools in regard to education equality, the Parents and F riends' Federation of W.A. have issued a pamphlet entitled "Educational Endowment for All." The layout is precise and the problem-, the reaives g the claim, and what for son claimed now, with is being an appeal for fairness, all in t wo pages. The method which the Federation hopes to use after acutal distribution of the number printed is Read, Study and Pass-on method. This, they hope, will give what they consider the widest possible information on this subejct to the greatest number of people. TIMING timing of the producThe tion could not have been better. With apparent breakthroughs in New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania making news, the Queensland system being extended and the precedent of the Federal Territory, educational equality for independent schools is most t opical. The pamphlet asks the question — Should publicly subscribed funds for education be spent wholly on children attending State schools, or should these funds be applied to the education of ALL children? The pamphlet goes on— WE ADVOCATE THE SECOND ALTERNATIVE . . . (1) Because Australia cannot neglect the schools of one-quarter of Australian children without disastrous results for the community at large; (2) Because funds collected from all without discrimination should be spent on all with discrimination; (3) Because the exercise of parents' rights to educate their children should should not involve them in financial penalties. Australia, in common with England, Scotland and Ireland, and most countries of the free world, should provide adequate funds for the education of ALL children, whether they attend government schools or not.
school building be subsidised to the extent of 50 per cent of the capital cost. [Not all independent schools would make this precise request. However, t he Anglican Church, which is associated with seven major schools in W.A., in 1962 sought the application of these proposals to secondary schools.] In 1961-62, says the pamphlet, Western Australia expended over £12,000,000 of its public funds on 78 per cent of its schoolchildren, and only £36,000 on the remaining 22 per cent, plus some share in expenditure of a marginal kind on school transport, boarding allowances, etc. The question is posed—
REQUEST THEREFORE WE ASK— (1) That there be paid on behalf of each child educated in other than State schools a sum of money equal to 50 per cent of the cost of equivalent State education; (2) That future 11111111111111111111118111111111111111111111111111111111118

IS THIS FAIR? Could these proposals be effected without the impoverishment of existing State Education? Yes — in the long term
such a provision would release more, not less money for State Education. Obviously it is cheaper to pay part of the costs of education than be increasingly committed to total payment. Twenty-five per cent of Australia's population under 21 years is composed of post-war migrants or the children of migrants. A very large proportion of these children attend non-government school s, whose problems of accommodation and staffing have been made even more acute through the workings of our migration policies. This statement is prepared by the Council of the Parents and Friends' Federation of Western Australia, which co-ordinates the work of the Parents and Friends' Associations of Catholic schools. It is particularly interested in commending the case for Equality in Education in Australia.
Unforgettable Image BRUSSELS.—Leo Cardinal Suenens, Archbishop of Malines-Brussels, said here that the late Pope John XXIII gave us the "unforgettable image of a man who was naturally supernatural and supernaturally natural." The Cardinal was speaking on September 24 to two thousand people gathered for the opening of Brussels' lecture series, Grandes Conferences Catholiques. Also on the programme were Bernard Cardinal Alfrink, Archbishop of Utrecht, the Netherlands, and Jean Guitton, a professor at the University of Paris and the only Catholic layman to attend general meetings of the Ecumenical Council during its first session last year. The opening session was dedicated to the late Pope. Cardinal Suenens said that Pope John, "unable to dramatise a n y situation, would not allow any situation to turn him into a dramatic person." QUICK The Cardinal recounted an incident which followed the late Pope's election at the 1958 conclave: When Pope John left the conclave, he found his secretary, Monsignor Loris Capovilla, in tears. "Come on, Monsignor," he said. "Who is the new Pope, you or me?" "But what are we going to do now?" the secretary asked. "Say Vespers and Cornpline," was the reply.

PAINTING CONTRACTORS
Cardinal Suenens pictured Pope John as the Pope of the threefold dialogue—the dialogue among Catholics of all ranks and places, the dialogue between Catholics and other Christians, and the dialogue between the Church and the modern world. Cardinal Alfrink said: "Pope John, who won the esteem of the whole world, not through any extraordinary intellectual talent, but through the gifts of his heart, through his simplicity and humility, will go down in history not only as the Pope of the Second Vatican Council, but also as the Pope of the ecumenical movement. "His motu proprio (papal document) setting up the Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity will be known as the Magna Carta of the ecumenical movement in the Church." Guitton described the late Pope as a mild and generous blend of goodheartedness and magnanimity. "I often wondered how Pope John conquered the hearts of so many people," he said. "Perhaps it was because people saw him as a model they could imitate."
Laity
VATICAN CITY: The main aim of the forthcoming Third World Congress for the Lay Apostolate will be "to make known, and help in implementing, decisions of the Second Vatican Council concerning the laity," according to an article in the Vatican City daily L'Osservatore Romano. The article reported that plans made so far for the coming congress were submitted to His Holiness Pope Paul VI. The date for the congress is yet to be set. It will depend on the development of the Second Vatican Council. The material submitted to the Pope included study matter drawn up on the theme chosen for preparation of the congress: "Ut Unum Sint . . . Ut Mundus Credat" (That All May Be One . . . That the World May Believe), and on "what helps and what hinders unity among men, among Christians, among Catholics." The article said that the choice of the preparatory theme was inspired by the Ecumenical Council, its aim being to prepare lay people throughout the world to receive the council's decisions and to make them bear fruit in the three sectors defined once again by Pope Paul VI in a recent letter to Eugene Cardinal Tisserant, Dean of the Sacred College of Cardinals, as: "greater prosperity in the life of the Church," the desire for the "unity of our separated brethren with the Catholic Church," and "peace and spiritual prosperity f o r mankind throughout the world." LOCAL STUDY The article said that a study of the preparatory theme is being carried out by national and diocesan coordinating bodies for the lay apostolate in many countries. The results of this study, as already announced, will be surveyed at a preparatory conference for the world congress. The conference is to be held in Washington, possibly during the coming year. The article said that this conference will also afford an opportunity for preliminary work in a relatively small group (representative however of the various countries and Catholic international oganisations) on matters concerning the laity which are at present on the agenda of the council. Regional meetings a r e also planned as part of the preparation for the world congress. A first meeting of this kind was the Northern European Lay Apostolate Conference held in London last May.
Pope Paul VI visited Ghana's Yendi Mission in Tamale Diocese last year. The then Cardinal Montini blessed the new church at Akosombo, the site of a dam on the Volta River. He is shown here with Father Charles Erb, S.V.D., superior of the Yendi Mission and his mobile cinema. The film-van is named after Pope John XXIII, who gave it to the mission.
Tribunal Will Review Her Life LONDON.—DOCUMENTS IN THE BEATIFICATION CAUSE OF CORNELIA CONNELLY, PHILADELPHIABORN FOUNDRESS OF THE HOLY CHILD CONGREGATION OF NUNS, WILL BE REVIEWED NEXT YEAR IN ENGLAND BY A DIOCESAN TRIBUNAL, Mother Cornelia, convert and mother of several children, died in Sussex, England, in 1879. She left the United States for England to found the Society of the Holy Child Jesus after her husband, a former Episcopalian minister, had begun studies for the Catholic priesthood with a special papal dispensation. A sensation was created in Britain when her husband, reverting to Protestantism, tried to force Mother Cornelia to give up her life as a nun and return to him. The case went to
the courts and finally to the Privy Council before the foundress was free to continue her work with the Holy Child Society. Interest in the Cornelia cause was crystallised in 1953 when the Southwark diocese set up a commission to evaluate her life. The cause was introduced in 1959, and in 1960 a total of 55 volumes of the foundress' writings were sent to the Sacred Congregation of Rites in Rome. Father James Walsh, S.J., is Southwark diocesan postulator for the cause.

The Council's Problem Of Giving A Precise Definition On The Nature Of The Church The Apostles' Creed proclaims the Christian's faith in God: Father, Son and Holy Ghost. It also affirms belief in the Holy Catholic Church. In the early ecumenical councils the doctrine of the Trinity was examined and in part defined. The Incarnation of God the Son also received concili or attention. But no council has ever defined the Church. In Sacred Scripture there is much that has to do with the Ecclesia, the Church. But the Church is always considered in terms of images; no definition is attempted. The reason for the glaring lack of definition in so important a reality as the Church is that she is a mystery. God, being a mystery, cannot be defined according to the rigour of philosophic definition. This is equally true of God's Church. If no council of the past has given us a defining formula, we need not expect one from the Second Vatican Council. Yet though the Church cannot be defined, much can be known about her. During the last few centuries many questionrs have been raised about t h e Church and her nature. These questions have been serious and trying. We expect from the present council some answers to some of these questions.
• THE NATURE OF THE CHURCH THE Church of Christ is one, but it has many dimensions. You can look at her
through the glass of the liturgy. She can be studied in her very reality as grasped in faith. Since she is a visible communion, s h e needs laws to keep external order in the people of God. Consideration of this latter aspect of the Church is thus juridical. Much juridical meditation has been made in the past. In some centuries it was the only consideration given. However, study of this kind 's superficial and does not satisfy the faith-enlightened mind in its search for deeper understanding of the

By Father Gustave Weigel, S.J. *
THE following article higlights the question of the nature of the Church, which is expected to be the first major topic up for consideration at the second session of the Second Vatican Council. The author, who earned doctorates in philosophy and theology at the Gregorian University in Rome and has received an honorary doctorate from Yale, is professor of ecclesiolog-y—the study of the nature of the Church—at Woodstock (Md.) College. A leading participant in the ecumenical dialogue in the United States, he is a consultant to the Vatican Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity and serves as an interpreter for non-Catholic delegate-observers attending the council.
reality which is so close to us. Theologians in the last hundred years have been pushing for a fuller vision of our ecclesiastical structure. The time has come to lay down some guide-lines and it is to be expected that the council will supply what we need. Pope John XXIII in his introductory exhortation at the first session of Vatican CouncilII urged the bishops to speak in such a way that the people could understand the doctrines of faith. He wanted something more practical than subtle philosophising or merely legal outlines.
• FOLLOW ADVICE IT IS safe to say that in the second session of the council the bishops will earnestly try to follow the advice given by the depart-

ed Pontiff. We know that they will not answer all the questions which the fact of the Church raises, but there are certain questions which are acute in our time. The First Vatican Council dealt with one facet of the Church. It taught us what the Pope's place is in the house of God. Papal primacy and papal infallibility were defined. This brought up the whole question of hierarchy. Yet so little was said about the bishop's place among the People of God. Certainly bishops are more than representatives of the Bishop The ancient of Rome. Fathers clearly saw episcopal power as wider than the exercise of papal jurisdiction. In fact they considered papal prerogratives as an instance of episcopal power. Certainly the second session of the council will tell us just what a bishop is in the Church and what his function in the Mystical Body entails. Current theologians see the bishops as directors not only of local churches but so united around their universal primate that they all together guide the Church universal. This idea must be analysed and explained. We wait for the council to do so.
• EXEMPT ORDERS IN our time we see some clergy at work in the local churches who are not directly under the jurisdiction of the local bishop. These are Religious, members of the old orders and some y ounger congregations. Known as "exempt clergy," they are directly under the Pope himself. Th relationship between
exempt Religious and the
local Ordinary is sometimes confusing. It seems to diminish the bishop's authority in his own See. Lines must be laid down so that the bishop's power in his church be made clear. The question is an old one and goes back to the fifth century. But the growth of the Church in our time and in complexity requires an answer now. Once more we can look forward to the council for authoritative doctrine on this very important point. Can the bishop tell the exempt Religious working in his diocese how they are to work here and now, or must he wait and see what they will do? The latter hypothesis could produce uncomfortable situations.
• THE CHURCH IS THE PEOPLE IN our time we have become aware that the Church is the people of God. The laity are the overwhelming In mass in the Church. Greek the word for people is "laos, from which we get the term laity. Now just what is the role of the layman in the Church? Is he only a child who does not make mature judgment but does only what he is told by his paternal superiors? He must have intiative if he is to act effectively as a mature adult member of the Mystical Body. On the other hand, his bishop is inall truth his pastor and his guide. How can lay initiative be reconciled with episcopal jurisdiction? Once more we expect the council to give us sharp and stable light. The Second Vatican Council will be highly significant for Christian life. Religious, priests, laymen and bishops will see their existence in a new light. The relations between one and the other will be clearer, making for more effective co-operation and collaboration. This is highly to be desired because the Church is a living body which is always intensely active. No part of the body is passive. Even our contemplative nuns and monks are not outside the corporate vitality. They too, by their activity, spiritual indeed, serve the Church and her well-being. Now we must not demand too much of the 'council. It cannot be in session ftlr many years. The questions about the Church are so numerous that the shortlived council cannot take them all into consideration. Among the many questions only some will be chosen for
answers—those which press up hardest in our time. Other councils must deal with problems which their
moment in history present.
• CONCRETE NEEDS NOR must we forget that a council is a very practical undertaking. The needs of the Church as an existing communion must be met. A council is not a school of theology where theories are leisurely confected and developed. Such work is a very good thing, but we have permanent institutions of this kind. Councils have no intention of doing their work for them. In consequence we shall find the council acting not only in the realm of theological theory but mainly in the
order of concrete needs, Such situations will be under conciliar scrutiny. One final point: The coun. cil will impart greater inn. portance to regional and
national episcopal confer. ences. Such periodical assemblies of bishops can
deal with more questions than an ecumenical council can. The council, therefore, will supply us with a device to get more and more an. swers when and where the the questions arise. It is clear that the coun. cil by its doctrine and directives is going to rejuvenate the whole Church. We can expect great things.
INTERNATIONAL GROUP OPENS OFFICE TO IMP ROME.—AN INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CATHOLIC LAY GROUPS HAS OPENED AN OFFICE HERE TO HELP FATHERS OF THE ECUMENICAL COUNCIL WITH DOCUMENTATION AND WITH ADVICE ON MATTERS RELATED TO THE LAY APOSTOLATE AND THE CHURCH'S EFFECTIVE PRESENCE IN THE MODERN WORLD. The office is sponsored jointly by the Conference of International Catholic Organisations and by the Permanent Committee for International Congresses of the Lay Apostolate. It is situated at the central secretariat of the World Federation of Sodalities of Our Lady. The opening of the office was announced in a letter sent to all council Fathers. It was signed by A rchbishop Alberto Castelli, vice-chairman of the ecclesiastical commission of the Permanent Committee for International Congresses of the Lay Apostolate, and Bishop Francois Charriere of Lausanne, Geneva and Fribourg, Switzerland, ecclesiastical assistant of the Conference of International Catholic Organisations. The letter said that the office has two purposes-"making available to the council Fathers information which may be useful with reference to schemata ( draft projects) on the Church, on the lay apostolate and on the presence of the Church in the modern world;" and "enabling those Fathers who so desire to take advantage of their stay in Rome by coming in contact with varied undertakings of organised lay apostolate and meeting competent leaders working in various fields at a national or international level." The new office is directed by Mieczyslaw de Habicht, permanent secretary of the Conference of International Catholic Organisations. Among those on hand as the new office opened was Martin H. Work, executive director of the U.S. National Council of Catholic Men. Mr. Work said he saw the opening of the office as a response by the laity to interest and encouragement shown by council Fathers for the lay opstolate. "In particular," he said, "it is a response to a call Pope Paul made in a recent Frascati sermon when he urged the laity to 'come and help us'" Mr. Work said that the office takes on added importance when it is realised that three projects being considered by the council are moving closer to the general discussion stage—the nature of the Church, the lay apostolate and the effective presence of the Church in the modern world. He noted that all three deal substantially with the laity. Mr. Work also said that the office will give bishops from all over the world an opportunity to see how the lay apostolate can be used effectively, based on its record and experience in other countries. He added that it is significant that the new office is being opened when the Pope has just announced that lay people can be authorised as experts t° advise council commissions and when he has aPpointed lay auditors to attend the council's general meetings. 00#.4....p.p.p.wkos,"••••••••

A
MORE varied career than some others has been that of a young milliner, BOO FIELD REID . . .
After four years at St. Martin's School of Art, she joined the workrooms of a wellknown London hat designer. Later she worked backstage in the world of the theatre. She began by painting scenery at a small London suburban theatre, then found herself a job in the workrooms at Covent Garden Opera House—"where I did everything from making headdresses to sewing tails on animal costumes." When, in 1961, she decided to concentrate on millinery, this theatrical experience turned out to be an enormous asset, though she hardly thought so at the time. No one had heard of her, and no one came near her tiny salon for about four months. Her decision to make a summer collection in April, 1962, and invite press and buyers along to see it, was a last despairing fling. But it paid off. Not only did clients appears — and stay with her — but photographs of the hats appeared in a famous London fashion magazine.

Clients have learned to look for dramatic new ideas combined with unconventional materials. Her hats are gay, lively, eminently wearable. She likes high crowns, and thinks they suit everyone. She has experimented wildly—and with complete success—in coarsely woven sackcloth. Hats which she designed in African cottons sold steadily, and her new turbans

The Problem Of The Epileptic IN AN EFFORT TO REMOVE THE UNNECESSARY STIGMA WHICH PEOPLE PLACE ON SUFFERERS OF EPILEPSY AN ASSOCIATION HAS BEEN FORMED IN PERTH. The Association is called the West Australian Epilepsy Association and their aim is to re-educate the public in their approach to epilepsy and epileptics. Three meetings have been held up to now and they are scheduled for each month. Epilepsy takes many forms, many of which are totally unnoticeable. However, the main two types are the "Petit Mal" and the "Grand Mal." The "Petit Mal" can be a daydream, a momentary mental blackout. The "Grand Mal" is the fit in which the patient loses consciousness and collapses. Generally, there is a violent twitching which preceeds a period of deep sleep. Once this condition of "epileptic"

is known, the sufferer is made an isolate. Isolation is a lonely way to live and yet the epileptic is forced into such a way of life. Socially the sufferer is an outcast, no matter what age or sex. The problem of isolation is not a new one, nor are the prejudices that have created the problem. Yet little progress has been made toward the restoration of the epileptic of those human rights which should be his or her natural heritage. The epileptic has been (and still may be) unwilling in most cases to organise for this effort, for to do so is to publicly announce his disability, when his every desire is to hide it. At all stratas there is the "ghost in the cupboard," so to speak. At all ages, the problem remains, but very little help comes as the epileptic is an isolate who must keep his or her secret.

PRAYER FOR THE COUNCIL
The YCS And YCW The Y.C.S.

The chairman was Jacqueline Gorman, who, after a short welcoming speech by the president of the host school — Laurel Butler, introduced the speakers, who were:—Pauline Duffy (St. Mary's) who spoke on 'Our Daily Plan of Life'; Michael Dowsett (St. Francis Xavier's) who spoke on the help given by the "Gospel Discussion"; Ann Hilsz (Brigidine College) spoke on how Discussion" the "Group helps us and finally Jacqui Gorman who spoke on the need for "Group Activities." These lectures were followed by discussions led by various group leaders, and the main points were summarised after the discussions were over. Father P. Ahern, Y.C.S. Diocesan Chaplain, spoke on the link between the Y.C.S. and Y.C.W., and introduced the president of the South branch, Y.C.W.

Successful Retreat
A complete roll-up of the Certificate 1962 Leaving class was one of the pleasing aspects of a past -pupils' retreat last week. On October 5 and 6 the Past Pupils of St. Brigid's College, Lesmurdie, made their annual retreat. A large number are reported to have made the retreat, including last year's class. The organising executive of the association thanked the Mother Superior and the Community for their efforts in making the retreat possible. The hope was expressed that the next October retreat will bring many more of the 35 classes which have gone through the College.
Search Is On For Athletic Talent
Many fine performances have been noted and action for recruitment will follow shortly. Possibly the most interesting item noted was the performance of Rod McGhee at the Aquinas College sports. Rod won the open 100yds. in a very impressive 10.3sec., the 440yds. and the 220yds. in fine style. He was not at any time pushed to win these events, but his starting still leaves a little to be desired. Rod who, last track season, won three junior titles, will probably represent the club in the A-Grade sprints this season. Another club member to excel at his school sports was Paul Fisher. Paul, a long-striding, natural quarter-miler, won this event in his personal best time of 52.3sec. Paul went on to win the school championship as well as winning and being placed in many varied events. A bright season seems in store for this athlete. POOR ROLL-UP A poor turn-up of athletes attended the first training session last week. About five athletes took advantage of the sessions and others, such as Mike Goerke and his fellow distance runners, stayed on their various courses.

Mr. Brian Moylan — Y.C.W. National Sec.
SECRETARY'S STATE VISIT The National Secretary of the Young Christian Workers (Boys) Movement, Mr. Brian Moylan, arrived in Perth last week. He will spend about three weeks having a look at the Y.C.W. in Western Australia, including a trip to the South-West. During his visit he will examine the situation of young people in Western Australia and see if the Y.C.W. is gearing itself towards its aims. He would also offer suggestions if he
Irish Club Picnic One of the largest crowds yet recorded attended the monthly Irish Club social and dance at Highgate hall last Sunday night. With popular M.C. John McMorrow and Irish music by Tom O'Brien a very happy crowd of young men and women had a very lively evening. Many visitors were welcomed among them some recent arrivals from Ireland. Also at the dance were Mr. and M. Sean O'Reilly who have just returned from Ireland where they attended the dual ordination of both Sean's brothers. On Sunday next, October 13, the Club will hold its annual picnic at Yanchep. Among the items planned are a children's sports, and the popular half Australian half Gaelic rules football match, as played last year. In the afternoon there will be an exhibition hurling match. In this game Sean Purcell's team from the country which beat the home team who were without full forward Pat Costello, on Sunday last, will again play them in a challenge game. A game of golf has been arranged for the morning and anyone interested should contact Jim Hayden. Parties travelling by bus are advised that it will leave from Forrest Place at 10 a.m. On Sunday, October 20. at 8.30 p.m. the record evening for the older members will be held in the CaVictoria Centre, tholic Square. The Club has been fortunate in securing a recording of the very successful Irish play "Sive" for this occasion and are sure that it will be enjoyed immensely. Any enquiries regarding the club or its activities please ring the secretary, 62 Edward Fitzmaurice, Redfern Street, North Perth, Phone 24 4691.
thought they would be helpful. Mr. Moylan was formerly from Adelaide, but has been living in Melbourne since he took on this job on the Y.C.W. (Boys) Executive. Among worthwhile projects he has learned about since he arrived has been the work done by Y.C.W. members at Riverbank. He said that this showed proper concern by the Y.C.W. members to help the young men with their problems of rehabilitation. He said that the policy of accepting men as they are was a good one. SELFISHNESS When asked what was one of the biggest single problems facing youth today, he replied without any hesitation: "Selfishness." He said that a lot of people today often thought of themselves first, second, third and fourth. He said: "Those who some into the Y.C.W. find it hard to keep going with this attitude. The acceptance of responsibility must be based on spiritual training." "Social pressures were the main cause of this attitude." said the National Secretary. "Advertising directed at youth played a big part in developing this selfish attitude." He said that one of the weakest aspects of the Boys' Y.C.W. was getting their teams organised. He said that this was gradually being overcome by passing on responsibility from leaders to team members. SPECIAL WORKS On the subject of special works by the Y.C.W., he said that where an existing organisation was doing a work, it was their policy to work in with it. He said that this was the idea of Youth Councils in each State. The idea of duplicating was waste of effort, especially when there were so many things to be done. Mr. Moylan will give another interview with "The Record" at the end of his visit to Western Australia.

Rev. Father W. J. Foley
SEMBLY.
FAMINE ALL AROUND ''YES, INDEED, what did we expect we would see that February morning in 1962, when we set out from Dublin Airport for Turkana. Seven thousand faminestricken people, the scorching sun, miles of sand, camels, a tin house and a tent . . . they were all there. People in need. Hundreds of them suffering from hunger and disease of all kinds. The sand was surely there— twenty-four thousand square miles of it; the camels, too, sauntering leisurely in their search for water. The tin house standing firm and immovable as a rock ( though built on sand), was to be our future Convent. "The tent was for the two Fathers who had opened the Famine Relief Camp a few weeks previously, being the first missionaries to penetrate this Closed Territory. Though the relentless sun was shining forth, making the air oppressive, still it brought smiles on the faces of the destitute Turkana people. "In Turkana there are no towns or small villages as we know them. The normal mode of life of these people is to move with their herds, to wherever they can find a pasture. Almost all their cattle having been destroyed, this enforced gathering of thousands in one place, for the purpose of food distribution, brought the Turkana to a way of life completely foreign to their proud Independent nature."
FROM A MISSIONARY IN THE PHILIPPINES "THE LARGER PART of our mission territory is still
a jungle; devasting plant epidemics and plagues of rats prevent the people from prospering; communications and travel conditions are catastrophic; most priests go out on foot for their 30-mile round of Confessions each month, and they are cut off from the world—and each other—for months at a time. "Communists and fantic sects undermine the people. Both groups are equipped with abundant means and technical aid—motor transport, loud-speaker installations at their disposal—while we labour in poverty. Many a missionary sacrifices his daily needs to pay for a catechist. We need a church in one centre, where the priest lives in a primitive rented room and uses a miserable stall for a chapel." Why is it that our enemies always have so much tire.
while we are but flickering candles? We have the Truth, but we lack their zeal—so our missionaries are forced to labour in want. Start now to make a sacrifice for the spread of the Faith and send your offerings to the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.

It took up discussion of the draft document entitled "On the Church" on September 30, the day after the second session was opened solemnly by His Holiness Pope Paul VI. A noteworthy change in the mechanics of the rules of procedure in the general assembly was the fact that the four newly appointed moderators presided, and not the members of the Presidency of the Council. Gregorio Cardinal Agagianian, Prefect of the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith, was the first moderator to preside. COMMENTS Comments on the project on the Church — "De Ecclesia" — were led off by Joseph Cardinal Frings, Archbishop of Cologne, and by Giuseppe Cardinal Sin, Archbishop of Genoa. The consensus appeared to be that the schema was generally acceptable. Several recommendations were made looking toward its improvement, however. Cardinal Frings made a general reference to "some obscure points likely to give rise to doubt and uncertainty." He also requested that more space be given in the schema to the Blessed Virgin Mary, even though the council will later take up for consideration a separate schema concerning St. Mary as Mother of God and Mother of the Church. A change in the title of the "De Ecclesia" schema was suggested by Cardinal Sin. It should not be simply "The Church," he said, but rather "The Church of Christ." He underlined his pleasure at seeing the schema express "the longawaited declaration of the

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen THREE coloured pamphlets tying the Mass with tithing came to our office the other day. The following was in bold print: FOR GOD: 10 PER CENT FOR ME: 90 PER CENT For ME! And tying this with the Holy Sacrifice of Calvary! If there was ever an
unchristian idea, it is skimming the 10 per cent foam for our Creator, our Redeemer and our Sanctifier, in order that 90 per cent of the liquid wealth may go to our egos. DID not Our Lord, Whose example we are to follow,

say: "I love you unto the end?" May we claim we are united to the Sacrifice of the Mass by a 10 per cent love? Did Our Lord hang on the cross 18 minutes, or only one-tenth of the total oblation of three hours? Did Magdalen, who united herself with His death and burial, pour only 10 per cent of the ointment and then say: "The other 90 per cent is for me?" The only one in the New Testament who kept 90 per cent for himself and gave 10 per cent to God was the Pharisee, and Our Lord says that he went back to his house unjustified. Love is not mathematical. Christ tells us to give our cloak when we are forced to give our coat and when we are forced to walk a mile to walk an extra one.

sacramental nature of the episcopal consecration." He said, however, that this point should be further clarified and be assigned a theological note. Notable in the business of the day was the announcement that on the following day, Tuesday, October 1, discussion on the general acceptability of the project on the Church would be terminated and a vote taken. Speakers on the first day in addition to Cardinals Frings and Sini included Armenian Rite Patriarch Ignance Pierre XVI Batanian of Cilicia; Archbishop Casimiro Morcillo of Saragossa, Spain; Archbishop Pierre Ngo dinh Thuc of Hue, Vietnam; Archbishop Ermenegildo Florit of Florence; and Archbishop Giuseppe Gargitter of Bressanone, Italy. CRITICISM The remarks of Archbishop Florit and Archbishop Gargitter represented criticism of the schema, although the two prelates said that they favoured it in general. They asserted that it insists too much on the equality of the members of the Church without sufficiently stressing the exercise of authority. Archbishop Gargitter noted further that it is necessary to avoid any possible confusion concerning the the "universal priesthood"
of the people of God. In this context he said that it is likewise necessary to have a clearer and more pro-
found formulation concerning the aposolate of the laity. Archbishop Ngo dinh Thuc, brother of Vietnam's President Ngo dinh Diem, complained that the schema does not provide an adequate presentation of the Church for non-Christians. The result, he said, is that the Church would remain for non-Christians an almost unintelligible organism. He made a strong recommendation that heads of nonChristian religions be invited to the council as observers. In the middle of Archbishop Thuc's remarks, Cardinal Agagianian called him to order because he was speaking about specifics in the schema, while the order of the day limited comments to the schema as a whole. The bishops of the world had begun streaming into St. Peter's Square shortly after 8.30 a.m. Great crowds of people clustered at the several entrances to the square through which the bishops passed in automobiles and on foot. A ripple of applause went up as each bishop passed through the
communications to the assembly.
C O-OPERATION He first proposed sending the following message to Pope Paul in the name of the council Fathers: "At the opening of this general congregation may we be permitted to express our sentiments of filial devotion to him who in the first session of this council shared in our council work and was then taken from among us by the Holy Spirit and elected to the supreme ministry of the Catholic Church.
"Most Holy Father, last year your words directed us as a brother. Yesterday, the heart of a father open. ed up to us. May Your Holiness now deign to accept
our most lively and joyful thanks for having wished to point out and to fervently recommend the course to be
followed in our work. Through our prayers and our actions we hope and work together with Your
Holiness that the Holy Catholic Church may appear before the entire world as
the mystery of Christ and as the life of Christ Himself on earth.

Inside the basilica old friends greeted each other.

The asembly was called to order at 9.20 with the reading of the customary prayer, "Adsumus," by Eugene Cardinal Tisserant, the first of the cardinals of the Presidency of the Council.

diard WORLD of SPORT l Y.C.W.'s Narrow Win Over Police Boys THE Y.C.W. A2 team defeated Scarborough Police Boys in the most thrilling match of the basketball season. The game was intense from the fist jump to the final siren. Y.C.W. were first to score with a magnificent set shot from Martin Veneman. H o weve r, Scarborough were quick to even the score, and scoring continued steadily until half - time. Both teams were very sound in defence and halftime the scores were Scarborough 27 and Y.C.W. 24. In the second half Y.C.W. managed to even the score with two quick baskets by Kevin Stilling and Adrian Kuipers. Scarborough once again hit the front with several fine jump shots. They were starting to build up a handsome lead, but were once again checked by the stout defence of Brian Stevens and Martin Veneman.
The game steadied down when the fourth foul was called on Veneman. Y.C.W. substituted John Forster for Veneman. Forster rallied the team. George Pickering was now striking top form and levelled the scores with some solid attacking moves. Stevens was still holding the defence and Stilling once again scored with some fine jump shots under the basket. With seven minutes to go, Scarborough battled back and took the lead by one point. They scored on a foul throw. Max Horrocks was spearheading the attack and good forward play brought the Y.C.W. side back into the lead. However, Scarborough was not to be denied the chance of a premiership and once again fought back into the lead. In the last five minutes Y.C.W. fouled a Scarborough player and he sank two nice set shots. Scar-
borough returned to favour when Brian Stevens was held while trying to make a breakaway. He repeated the performance of the Scarborough player and scores were level once again. Another foul was called and George Pickering shot two for Y.C.W. and managed one point with 15 seconds to go. Key Stilling broke away and scored on the final siren. Final scores were Y.C.W. 40, Scarborough 37. Y.C.W. has entered teams in the Basketball Associatoin Competition every year since 1953 and this is the first pennant ever won.
Summer Basketball Competition • The Y.C.W. Summer Basketball competition will commence early in November.. It has been decided to have four grades this year and the competition will cater only for single men.

RIGHT AND READY, who was sent out a 6-4 favourite, justified t he strong support by winning the Belmont Park Cup over 14 furlongs by two and a half lengths on Saturday. Riding stricitly to instructions, his young rider was content to still have him last coming to the turn; then he let him go and he quickly gathered in the field and won going away. In running second, COUNT ORL was far from disgraced. He appeared to have the Cup won with a furlong to go, but the task of conceding the winner 261b. proved too much for him. These two horses are likely to meet again in the anniversary Cup to be run over 11 furlongs on the opening day at Ascot (October 19). While the difference in weight will not be so great next time they meet, Right and Ready will still only have to carry a light weight and he should win again. The connections of the winner deserved the success as they passed over a couple of certain wins in purse company to t a ckle our first-class horses. Once more HAPPY MINX was in a sour mood. Don't be surprised if this jade comes out next time and proves her indifferent run all wrong.
South-West Schools' Sports n The fourteenth annual meeting of the South-West Catholic School Sports Association will be held this year on Wednesday, October 16, at the Hands Memorial Oval, Sunbury. Fourteen schools from places as far away as Waroona and Margaret River will vie for honours in four different contests. This huge 171-event programme commences at 10 a.m. sharp. Assistant organiser Mr. L. J. Gossage said that this is a very colourful, spectacular, well-organised day of sport. He claims it to be the largest sports day of its type in the length and breadth of Australia, and every Catholic who is able should make it a must to be present at this very important event in the Catholic educational calendar. The Vicar-General, Rev. Monsignor C. W. Cunningham, will officiate in the absence of His Lordship Bishop L. J. Goody, now in Rome. The committee would ad-
vise people from far-away places that the oval is an ideal picnic ground and everything required is catered for on the oval. The priests, Brothers and nuns look forward to meeting all their old friends and making new ones on this day.
Associated Carnival
The Associated Catholic Colleges are holding their annual athletic carnival at Perry Lakes Stadium on Sunday, October 13, beginning at 12 noon. All seating in the main stand has been reserved for parents and visitors. The officials of the W.A.A.A.A. are controlling the meeting. Many boys have shown outstanding form in trials for their various colleges and competition promises to be very keen. Everybody is welcome.

PUNTERS' PALS
When horses win four races in a row, as did both RIGHT AND READY and CLEAR BREAK on Saturday, it is pleasing to backers particularly as both horses have been at odds against in all their wins. While it could still go on, Mr. LawOf-Averages must be hanging around somewhere.
n
OVERCAME MANY SETBACKS
To win the 61-furlong Novice, CHANNEL ROCK had to get over a series of knocks—the last, and perhaps the most severe one, occurred in the straight. Most horses his size—he is only small — would have given in, but not this fellow. He fought on to narrowly beat the sensationally backed COMPERE, who could have needed the 'hit out." The winner's determined effort was the best seen in a novice for a long time.
Ei
DRIFTS, BUT WINS
Opening up a short-priced favourite, not many seemed to want to support EDMUND RIVER, but that did not stop him winning the Advance Handicap with something in hand from heavily supported NORVAL BOY. The winner, who hails from Sydney, will improve further and win again. Don't discard NARLAKITA on her run, which was not bad considering that she did not get away cleanly and was up a class. • TIDY RETURN Now fancy £231/10/- for 5/-! That was the quinella d ividend after GOLD CYRUS beat 100-1 chance CAMBANA in the Avondale Handicap (1). Surely the lucky winner had a field ticket with Gold Cyrus as the second horse looked so "big" that he could drop
out and get mixed up with the ambulance. TALKING BIRD showed a bit of promise in this race to beat all but the placegetters.
Et
GALLANT IN, DEFEAT
With only 7.8 to carry, brilliant CLEAR BREAK got up in the last few yards to just beat SON 0' MINX in the Highway Welter of seven furlongs. The win brought up four on end for this gelding, who continues to race in rare form—but found this his hardest race to win. In running second first-up, SON 0' MINX proved himself to be an outstanding colt, as he stood the winner up age and 221b., after having to race wide in the middle stages of the race. His was a performance and a half for everything he did was with ease. His admirers may be assured that at no stage was he knocked about. He will now be put aside until Ascot and whether he starts in the Strand Handicap (6f.) on the Opening day or the Belgravia Stakes of seven furlongs on November 2 will depend on his progress. E; AN EVEN BATCH Unlike previous years, when a couple of youngsters have appeared outstanding, the 70-odd of this season's batch who were stepped out for the first time over 21 furlongs at Belmont last week seemed to be evenly matched. The usual cry that "this year's crop is the best ever" could hardly be applied at this early stage. A much better evaluation of their racing possibilities will be gained when they trial over a longer distance. Several smart bursts of speed were shown by: An unnamed ch. c. by MAKARPURA owned by Mr. Rod Evans impressed when he easily won his heat with his rider sitting hard against him. He could be an early winner. The same owner won the next heat — another unnamed MAKARPURA colt, who also showed plenty of promise. (by BULERA'S S 0N RAWSON) left a very good impression when he won his heat nicely. Left two lengths he turned on real speed to pick up the leaders within two furlongs and then go on and win. BILLAJONG, an attractive colt by DESIGNER, showed out when he ran second in a heat. He appears to have all the makings of a good one. NAREON and DALDERRA both won their trials in good style. The latter —perhaps the best filly seen so far—fought on well to win, which should please owner Jim Cumming, who due to a recent operation was unable to attend the trials.
El WEEK'S BEST
The first-up performance of SON 0' MINX in the Welter would be one of the most encouraging runs put up by a three-year-old, in Perth, in recent years. Racing first-up, NORTH GLOBE drew marked attention to his future prospects by his fast finishing fourth. In another stride he would have run third behind Clear Break, Son 0' Minx and Co. —a classy field for this tirne of the year. It will be recalled that as a three-yearold this black horse (nosy five) won good races, but he was turned out for a long spell last season.

Deep Sadness 01 Separation Mentioned By Pope V ATICAN CITY,—His Holiness Pope Paul V1 reopened the Second Vatican Council with a plan for the work at hand and a plea to nonCatholics for brotherly peace and pardon. He said that the "principal concern" of this second session would be to "examine the intimate nature of the Church." From this examination will come a definition, or a declaration, solemn less which "will reveal the Church's real fundamental nature" and its mission. Some 2,500 council Fathers in white ceremonial robes heard the Pope list three further objectives of the council: reform of the Church, Christian unity and the "dialogue of the Church contemporary the with world." In the muted splendour of the reopening ceremony, Pope Paul recalled the figure and voice of the late Pope John XXIII, who conceived the council and launched it at a brilliant ceremony last October 11.
and the Catholic Church. "If we are in any way to blame for that separation, we humbly beg God's forgiveness and ask pardon too of our brethren who feel they have been injured by us," he said.
Forgive
"For our part, we willingly forgive the injuries which the Catholic Church has suffered, and forget the grief endured during the long series of dissensions and s eparations. May the heavenly Father deign to hear our prayers and grant us true brotherly peace." The Pope's 62-minute address ended the second session's opening ceremony of just over four hours. The splendour and pomp of last October's session itself was missing.

f avourable Reaction from Observers At Opening VATICAN CITY: REACTION OF NON-CATHOLIC DELEGATE - OBSERVERS AT THE VATICAN COUNCIL TO HIS HOLINESS POPE PAUL VI's OPENING ADDRESS TO THE COUNCIL W A S GENERALLY FAVOURABLE. This appeared from conversations with several of the delegate-observers in a Position to express the prevailing views. What struck a particularly responsive chord, these Sources indicated, were the Sentences in which Pope Paul "humbly begged God's f orgiveness and asked pardon of our brethren who f eel themselves to have been injured by us." As an American delegate Who did not want his name to be used expressed it: This is the first time since the Reformation that such gratifying words have come from a Pope." SINCERITY This delegate felt that a Statement of such sincerity Will go far in allaying many a Protestant apprehension in regard to the prospects Of More intimate inter-faith Contacts. "We ourselves," he added, "Must follow suit. We must
not be less generous than the Pope, for we as well need an 'aggiornamento.' " ("Aggiornamento"— up-dating—is the word applied by Pope John to the work of the council with regard to the Church.) The general feeling among the delegate - observers is that Pope Paul went even further than Pope John in stressing the transcending importance of the ecumenical movement and that on the strength of so friendly a disposition on the part of the Catholic Church, further progress in inter-faith relations now may well be expected. HESITATION In one respect, however, the observers are hesitant to express approval. this is when it comes to the Pope's statements about Christian unity as he seems to understand it. "To speak of unity,- said one observer, "and to interpret it as though, as the Holy Father put it, there should be only one church, cannot but elicit certain basic reservations on our part." This impression at least in part appears to have been created by a faulty translation of the Italian text of the Pope's address, where the words "a single ecclesiastical directio n" were translated as meaning "single ecclesiastical control." The Latin text says "unici ecclesiastici regiminis.'
of members of the papal household. Most of the council Fathers who took part in the procession were dressed in white. But many Fathers from the Eastern Churches dressed in black. Each Cardinal, dressed in the vestments of his order (bishop, priest or deacon) in the Sacred College, was acanother by companied cleric. Behind the Cardinals came Pope Paul: He was carried down the royal stairs of the Apostolic Palace and along the porch of the basilica on his portable throne. But he came down from the throne at the door of St. Peter's and walked the rest of the way, flanked by fanbearers.
Holy Spirit Behind the Pope came his official physician, the Dean of the Roman Rota, (Philadelphia's Mgr. Francis J. Brennan), chanters singing the hymn to the Blessed Virgin, Ave Mans Stella, and other members of the papal household. When the Pope reached the main altar, he knelt, without his mitre, and intoned the Veni Creator Spiritus, a traditional hymn asking the help of the Holy Spirit. Pope the 10.17, At stood at the foot of the altar for the opening prayers of the Mass with Eugene Cardinal Tisserant, who as Dean of the College of Car-
dinals, offered the Mass. He also offered the Mass at last October's opening ceremony. During the Mass, bishops and people joined in singing the responses, the Gloria, the Credo, and the Sanctus. The Mass took about an hour. Then, with the ceremony of the obedience of the council Fathers, the second session of the council began. During the symbolic obedience ceremony, 100-yearold Archbishop Alfonso Carinci, retired secretary of the of Congregation Sacred Rites, haltingly approached the Pope's throne. He was one of two prelates chosen to represent archbishops. Pope Paul stood to receive the centenarian prelate and, still standing, blessed him ▪ three times.
New Fathers New council Fathers — those who were made bishops or otherwise became eligible to participate in the council since the first session — then made a public Profession of Faith. Pope Paul began his address at 11.49 in clear Latin diction. He delivered his address almost as if he were native speaking in his tongue: emphasising a point here, asking a question there, speaking in tones of deep feeling — especially when addressing the nonCatholic observers. Early in his address, the Pope said that he had intended, "as hollowed custom prescribes for Us," to write an encyclical inaugurating his pontificate. But he said that the opening address gave him a "singular and happy opportunity" to do that by word of mouth. He promised, however, to write encyclical inaugural an "once these toilsome days are past."

TWO TYPES OF FAMILIES * THERE IS THE STORY OF A PROFESSOR IN A UNIVERSITY WHO WAS ASSIGNED TO TEACH A COURSE ON THE HISTORY OF R ELIGION. He knew that in his class there would be students of various religious orientations. Being a modern man of tolerance, the professor did not wish to displease the believers in God, nor did he want to offend the agnostics. Therefore, he started his first lecture by saying "Gentlemen, some people believe in God; others do not. In this course we shall adopt an intermediate position."

HOW LONG? correspondent Another wants a forecast on how long the discussion on the Church will continue but Father Weigall disclaims prophetic powers. The first session There ran for 59 days. were 41 working days and the Council Fathers spent 110 hours 35 minutes in General Congregations. It seems likely that the discussion on the nature of the Church will take up most of this second session and it could go on further. Once again one wonders how long the Council will continue and whether longer than two months sessions could be arranged. Pope Paul spoke with great fervour in his allocution to the Council on the mystery of the Church just as he had as Cardinal Montini during the first session. As he prefaced his talk by saying it would be the gist of his first encyclical, a prelude to both the Council and his pontificate ' it is clear that this meditation on the nature of the Church is basic to his thought. He sees great possibilities for the Ecumenical movement coming from this deepened theology: "The theological doctrine has the possibility of magnificent de-

THIS could be an example of being so broadminded as to be flat-headed. However, .the learned professor's distinction with a slight variation might be applied to family life in the United States today. There are families who believe in God. There are other families who act as though God did not in fact exist.. There are a lot of families who live in between. In a sense, it is possible to speak of two family systems presently existing in modern society. One might be called the typical American family. The other-the God-oriented American family. Each faces the same human problems. Both are concerned with the inter-personal relations between husband and wife and parents and children. The usual challenges of adjustment to in-laws, finances, sex, satisfaction of material wants and needs face both families. They are plagued by the same emotional upsets, afflicted by the same physical diseases. The problems of the community, of the nation, and of the world are the problems of every man's family. The poor and the under-privileged we still have with us. A recent study showed that there are between 40 and 50 million Americans living in what has been called an "economic underworld." These are Americans living in poverty-stricken conditions in the midst of plenty. They are the victims of bad housing, bad economic conditions and bad nutrition. There are the issues of bigotry because of a family's religious and racial background. No family in this country can exist unaffected by the virus of hate -and discrimination. It is only that some are affected more because they are more of a minority and less economically able to fight for their rights.
T HE
DIFFERENCE
THESE are some of the many common human problems facing both the typical and and the God-oriented families. Both families have one thing in common - they are composed of human beings and are characterised by the customary human sympathy for the underdog and by concern for those in need. In some cases the solution to common human problems, whether of a personal or social nature, will be the same regardless of the type of family system. The difference lies not in the solutions r eached, but in the radically different philosophies of life from which the solutions flow. The typical American. whether completely secularised or vaguely religious, sees God, if he considers Him at all, as a very remote being. God's interest in or concern for human life is very negligible if it exists at all. It is the human role to build the house, do all the interior decorating, and then, if he so desires, invite God in as a sort of approving guest. If God knows His place, He will smile approvingly and depart in due course with a farewell blessing. The religious attitude towards God is completely different. The believer is haunted by God. God is in his daily life as a very personal being. The question is not-"What shall I do?"-but rather"What is His will for me?" He knows the truth of the psalmist: "Unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain who build it." The address of the local Catholic Marriage Guidance Centre is 77 ST.

Rev. Dr. Rumble
Bertrand Russell's Unbelief -PROTESTANT," CONDOBOLIN, N.S.W.: BERT RAND RUSSELL'S BOOK, A NOT AM I "WHY C HRISTIAN," MUST CONSTITUTE A WORRYING P ROBLEM FOR CATHOLICS. R.: As a matter of fact, it doesn't. Catholics are not in the least likely to read a book with such a title; still less by a man such as Bertrand Russell. But even, if they did, they would sense the absurdity of it within the first few pages. What would astonish them is that you should think the book to constitute a worrying problem for them but not for yourself. For you profess to be a Protestant. Or is it that Christianity means little or nothing to yourself although it means a lot to Catholics; so that attacks upon it by atheists would worry them, but not you? "CHRIST'S MISTAKE A BOUT END OF TIME" Q.: On page 11 he says: "Historically it is quite doubtful whether Christ ever existed at all." R.: With that I dealt previously. It is nonsense, of course; and Bertrand Russell himself doesn't believe it. Q.: He says, on the same page. that Christ "certainly thought His second coming would occur in clouds of glory before the death of all the people l iving at that time." R.: Firstly, if Russell thinks it "historically quite doubtful whether Christ ever existed,- he can't say that Christ "certainly thought" anything! Secondly, either he is very ignorant of the contents of the gospels or is deliberately distorting them. Christ clearly indicated that it was not part of His mission and that He had not the slightest intention Of giving so precise a notification of the time of His second coming. "Of that day or hour," He said. `no man know eth, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father." Mk. 13:32. If however, He would not say precisely when it would

occur, His teaching at least excluded anything like an immediate second coming. For He said: "This gospel of be shall Kingdom the preached in the whole world for a testimony to all nations, and then shall the consummation come." Matt. 24: 14. That couldn't happen in the lifetime of a single generation above all in the light of His prediction of the slow development of His Kingdom among men, beginning as the smallest of seeds and gradually growing into a vast and spreading tree (Mark 4:26-321
"BEFORE APOSTLES C OVERED ISRAEL" Q.: "He says, for instance," Bertrand Russell writes. " Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till t he Son of man be come." R.: Not being a biblical scholar, Bertrand Russell should at least have studied responsible scripture commentaries on the meaning of that verse instead of making so superficial a use of it. The words have a twofold sense; firstly, that until the destruction of Jerusalem and its temple and the final abolition of the Jewish dispensation, the apostles were to restrict themselves mainly to the evangelising of the Jews—a task which would even then be incomplete owing to the opposition they would encounter. Secondly, despite the divine intervention then, and the coming of Christ in His Kingdom on earth, the Church, with its mission to all mankind, many of the Jews will remain incredulous even until His final coming on the Day of Judgment itself. "IN LIFETIME OF SOME PRESENT" Q.: "Then He says,' Russell urges. 'There are some standing here which shall not taste death till the Son of Man comes into His K ingdom." R. : The reference there is not to the final coming of Christ but to the establishing of His Church which He regularly called His Kingdom and above all to its expansion after the destruction of Jerusalem and the final abolition of the Jewish dispensation. Russell overlooks or distorts the teaching of Christ concerning His Kingdom. That teaching essentially concerned the establishing of a New Covenant between God and man, and of a "New Israel" or "Chosen People of God," to replace the Old Covenant which had been This given to the Jews. New embraces Covenant three stages: • Its inauguration by the preaching of Christ and of the Apostles, so that those who believed and obeyed the gospel were already in a true sense entering into the kingdom of God; • Its development in this

world as the visible Catholic Church proclaimed the Rule of Christ, inducing men to submit to it, and helping them to prepare their souls for their eternal destiny; • And finally the consummation of the Kingdom of Christ at the Last Judgment and the conferring of everlasting happiness in heaven upon all the redeemed in God's own good time. It is a distortion of the gospel to ignore these three stages and pretend that
Christ mistakenly thought that the end of the world was near at hand even as He spoke. And of course, once more, it is doubly absurd for Bertrand Russell to say that Christ certainly did think in such a way, after saying that quite is "historically it Christ whether doubtful That ever existed at all." contradiction affords a measure of the irresponsibility with which he aired his views where religion is concerned.

Killing "fellow Christians" In War

N.S.W., writes: Despite the Commandment "Thou shalt not kill,- soldiers in wartime fight the enemy, who might be Germans, say; but aren't there many Catholics among the enemy and many decent Christians? Yet they are both fighting for an end, hut killing each other as a means. R.: As I explained in previous sessions, "Thou shalt not kill" forbids murder, but not military service in a just war nor the infliction of capital punishment for serious crimes by State authorities. In a just war of defence against unjust aggression, the purpose is, not to kill others, but to safeguard one's own country's right to survival and the lives and welfare of one's own fello.1.‘,- citizens, men women and children. Death of some enemy soldiers may be an unhappy consequence, but to speak as if this were the primary intention is a fallacy. The primary purpose of an army is the welfare of the country it must defend: and to join that army can easily be a duty for eligible men in times of national danger. The intention of soldiers on active service is, not to kill "fellow Catholics" or "decent Christians," but to put enemy forces out of action. If they wanted to "fellow Christians," kill they would have to interrogate every enemy soldier they encountered regarding his religion, on the score that they were looking for fellow Christians in order to exterminate them! That is clearly absurd. "LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR" Q.: We are taught that we are all brothers, and are given the precept: "Love thy neighbour." R.: All human beings are equally the children of God by creation, and therefore brothers in that sense.But this does not alter the fact that as citizens in this world people belong to their own countries as natural social units and retain duties in the sphere of national loyalty.
In a defensive xvar, a soldier is resisting those who would harm his immediate neighbours within his own nation; and the axiom that "greater love no man has than to lay down his life for his friend" applies to those who try to protect others, no matter what the cost to themselves_even though the cost means the loss of their own lives. "CONSCIENTIOUS O BJECTORS" Q.: What if a soldier kept the Commandments and r efused to fight or kill? What would society think of him? He would probably be gaoled. R.: No commandment forbids military service in a war judged by lawfully -constituted national authorities to be just and necessary as a last reso: t for a given country's protection against unjust aggression. Soldiers should, as far as possible, seek not to kill but to disarm and disable enemy forces.

Most countries make pro"conscientious for vision objectors," and do not gaol them but appoint them to non-combatant duties, But such "conscientious objectors" have an erroneous conscience. No no.mal Catholic would adopt such a position, differing from that of the vast majority of well-instructed practising Catholics. In his Christmas message, 1956, Pope Pius XII. dealing with the question of peace and war, said that if as a last resort, . a lawful government proclaims a war of self-defence against an aggressor nation, then "a Catholic citizen cannot invoke his own conscience in order to refuse to serve and fulfil those duties which the law imposes."

- BOOK RE VIEWS • Christianity Divided Protestant and Catholic Theological Issues. A Stag. book Publication of Sheed and Ward. 33 pp. at 12/6 stg. Christians who believe opposites can see their relative position by facing their doctrines one against the other. Done calmly and charitably it is called sharing, exchange and dialogue; when it becomes heated and abustive, it is debate, controversy and bigotry. Naturally the tolerant dialogue is for experts if it is to be in correct terms and authoritative; but the inherent dificulty in any nonCatholic statement is that in the confusion, it can represent only the view of the author, and not that of any "church" or group of believers. This is a book for skilled Theologians,—more than a third of it is non-Catholic teaching and polemics, in so far as it is contrary to Catholic Faith, is forbidden reading,—and would be indigestible, unsettling, or poinsonous food for others, even though it is published by a Catholic firm; the Catholic esays require careful and close screening. The book has nothing specific from the Anglican point of view, not from others accepting its articles more or less, nor from their American variations, nor from the more considerable Orthodox Church; it is limited to the waters of Europe, where there has been lively ferment for the last
thirty years in religious thought. The topics range through Scripture and Tradition, Biblical Interpretation, the Nature and Authority of the Church of Christ, Sacraments, and Justification. but this is not the place for a detailed estimate of them. Christianity is shown divided on basic beliefs, and the reunion is not forecast for the near future. R.S.N.
Thoughts For Gardeners By Cecilia Phi llips. A Fowler Wright Book, Worcestershire; price 5/- stg. A page of reflections for each week, corresponding with the work, cares, and flowers of the garden in the different seasons. They are neatly applied to the spiritual care and development of the soul. The writer has brought together a variety of topics from scarecrows to celery to make a point for the wise gardener who will be engaged in the garden of his soul. Unhappily the order follows the gardening seasons of the northern hemisphere simultaneously with the liturgical seasons, which puts the lessons out of order for these climes. R.S.N. -.4410

The Voice of Lourdes For anyone who has visited Lourdes, this novel book is a pleasant means of freshly recalling and reliving the sights and feelings and hearfelt moments of that experience. For those who have not been at this unique Grotto, here is a brief fifty-page account in print of its history, with photographs on every page showing the locality and activities, together with t wo -on-the-spot records for use on any LP machine at 331 3 r.p.m. tucked in the covers. These records cover a pilgrimage on its arrival, its usual processions and singing, and its prayers, reproducing a too-short sample of the true atmosphere of these occasions; an excerpt from the choir during a Mass in the Basilica, and a part of the consecration of the new underground Basilica by Pope John in 1958, when he was Nuncio in Paris, fill the 20 minutes of playing. Besides being a novelty in its use of the three means— print, pictures and sound— this is a telling souvenir and an appropriate gift item. It is procurable at Ahern's Bookshop at 30/- a copy.
Towards The Pacific Community By GERALD CAINE, M.D. For persons interested in the future of Australia, this is a timely and urgent booklet of 56 pages. The author deals with proposals for a confederation or loose association of this country with New Zealand, Malaysia, Thailand, South Vietnam, The Philippines, Taiwan and Japan, to regulate matters of military, economic and political concern for their mutual interest. He also considers Indonesia, Burma and India as possible partners, besides these seven free and friendly nations. Dr. Caine has visited the countries concerned, and taking Australia's geographical position in relation to them and to Red China, discusses the inadequacy of Anzus and Seato, the local trade position after the breakdown of our European market, the rise of Malaysia and the imminence of Maphilindo, with the consequent isolation of this part of the Western civilisation in the neighbourhood of Malayan, Hindu and Chinese peoples. Here are plans, suggestions and problems for foreign policy, trade and defence which any Australian may well ponder; and in the confederation contemplated, we could also see our nation as a bridge between East and West and as a means of spreading Christianity more widely and deeply among our neighbours. The book is very well worth examination, and is obtainable at the Cripac Press Pty. Ltd., P.O. Box 410, Ballarat, Victoria, at 3/- a copy.

mood and style of the play. As Ernest, James Vilee enlivens his tone with occasional snappy asperity, but is lacking in colour and extravagance.
Theatre Guild's latest production, "The Admirable Crichton," is a comedy about equality and leadership and is at present being staged at The Guild Theatre in Hay Street. Written by James Barrie. it tells how an aristocratic English family goes on a cruise with a staff of servants, including Crichton the butler who believes firmly in the superiority of his masters and the doctrine that there must always be someone in command. The party is shipwrecked and it is at this stage that Crichton becomes the master of the company. After a time they are all rescued and Crichton reverts to his inferior role of butler.
Some sparkle is added to the 'production when Helen Marian and Oxenburgh, identical twins, are highly successful in collaborating to portray the sweet, charming and diminutive kitchenmaid, Tweeny. Colleen Clifford's production, full of simpering, posturing and sniggering is effective to a certain degree, but it is lacking in style and sophistication. The efforts of this comparatively young cast are in no way aided by the untidy set and the incompetence of the back-stage crew.
From Geoffrey Chapman Ltd., London; price 5/- stg, A Missal for the young may seem a step too far in urging active sharing in the Mass, but this small handy one has the prayers shortened and simplified, with a line drawing on every page to convey ideas and to keep the reader in step with what is being done at the altar. It gives clearly the trend of the Mass, through the introduction, the offertory and sacrifice, the communion and the conclusion, with special 'sections for some feast days, and the answers for a dialogue Mass. A similar Missal has been a success in France and Germany. so with a little guidance from teachers, it could be a stimulus to attention, understanding, and devotion, intelligent for children of the higher primary grades. A good gift book for the young.

DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS,
'4PV4449\---'9
For some reason or another this is one of those hectic weeks and I am running behind time with this letter to you all . quite smart Some of you have been _. in getting off your entries to the colouring c ompetition. I am told that there was one in the mail box on Monday morning! That was real smart work. I am hoping for a record number of entries this time. Out of over a thousand members we ought to be able to beat al l records. One member sent a shi l l ing postal note with her entry, I will post it back to her, because there is no entry fee, only the condition that you have to be a member of the Junior Readers' Page. Thanks for the thought anyway, Kathleen. Rosetta Jacobucci, you are a member, sometimes the names get delayed in printing, depending on what day of the week they come into the office. Alec Brown, whose photo appeared recently, wrote to tellof his school sport day. That was good becoming the under 1 2 champion Alec. The broad jump 14 feet 9 inches must have been a mighty e ffort. Best of luck to you and all the c ompetitors in the Associated Catholic colleges sports day on next Sunday. I hope you all remember that it is not the vitally important thing to always win, though that is what competitions are for. The encouraging of good sportsmanship and sincere effort to do your best in the event that you are chosen for is by far the most important. Selby Adams wrote in reply to my query about a photograph. Selby has chosen one that he took of the floral clock in Kings Park as the one he likes most of all . He took the picture just as the clock was marking half past four. I did not mind the letter being late Selby, it was better going to the mission and getting the homework done. The letter can always wait till a time when you are free. I am always pleased to get them. Well that is about all for this week, don't forget the Rosary during October and the prayers for the Vatican Council's success. God bless you all, Brother Juniper.
