Message Repeats Peace Plea Vatican City: Pope Paul VI in his first Christmas message to the world has raised the same cry for peace that echoed and re-echoed in the Christmas messages of his predecessors, Pope John XXIII and Pope Pius XI!.
Jerusalem, Jordan: Pope Paul VI will take part in a night-time penitential service at the Garden of Gethsemane as part of his precedent-shattering Holy Land pilgrimage, it was learned here from reliable sources. The Pontiff w leave Rome's Fiumicino Airport at 8.30 a.m. (Rome me) on January 4. The 1,500-mile jet flight is due to arrive at the airport outside the Jordanian capit Amman about two hours later. Vatican Radii .reported an announcement by an official Jordan' spokesman that King Hussein, acommpanied b members of his government, will receive Pope Pa at the Amman Airport.
In the message, Pope Paul also joined the plea for Christian unity so dear to the heart of Pope John —so dear that it almost became identified with that beloved Pope. Pope Paul joined peace and religious unity together as in an indissoluble marriage. "This religious link . . . the most solid and hopeful basis for unity among men. The true sociology of human peace takes its rise from Christian religious unity," the Pontiff said.
ESCORT The papal pla will be escorted by squadrons of the Jordanian air f ce as it enters Jordan's air space. Along the 60-mS e drive from Amman to Jerusalem, the people of Jor an will have a chance to acclaim the Pope, Vatican R to said. A triumphal a h will be set up at the entrance of the city of Amn n and the streets will be decorated with papal flags.

HIS GRACE THE ARCHBISHOP HAS RETURNED FROM THE SECOND SESSION OF THE ECUMENICAL COUNCIL. He was met at Perth Airport by one of the staff of St. Mary's Cathedral on Monday afternoon.

CONSTANT Since the World 1Var II era utterances of Pope Pius XII, mapping a durable peace. virtually every papal Christmas message has dealt with peace in some way or other. As Pope Paul put it in his 1963 message: "This is suggested by Christmas itself, since as we all know, this feast is presented to us as a message of peace bestowed from heaven upon all men of goodwill." Like Popes Pius and John, Pope Paul addressed his appeal to all men of goodwill. He also drew attention to Pope John's encyclical Pacem in Terris, which, as he said, has shown us . . . the new problems of peace and the dynamism of the elements from which peace must result."
HUNG= Like Pope John in his encyclical Mater et Magistra, Pope Paul touched on problems of nations on their way to fuller development. Pope Paul also dwelt on the agonising problem of hunger, which torments half the human race. Pope John had touched on this problem in Mater et Magistra. but never made it a subject of his Christmas messages. For all its practical points and implications, Pope Paul's treatment of this subject was steeped in the same depth of doctrine that characterised the 19 Christmas messages of Pope Pius XII. Pope Paul also touched on a subject that is new not only in the history of papal messages but also in the history of the papacy itself — his forthcoming voyage to the land of the
first Christmas.

Workers Told Bishop Fulton Sheen . Class Strife Does Not Help
OU CAN IMAGINE A MOUNTAIN OF GOLD. Do you think that you will ever see one? You can imagine a castle with a thousands rooms, some you see with walls of diamonds, emeralds, amethysts and star sapphires. But do you think you will ever see such a castle?
V ATICAN CITY: Pope Paul VI told members of the Christian Association of Italian Workers that the Church created their organisation after World War II to help workers achieve their just demands without resorting to a class struggle.
The Pope also said that he sees signs that working men realise that atheistic Marxism has nothing to offer them. The Christian Association of Italian Workers is a branch of Italian Catholic Action. It is not a labour union but co-operates with unions in their programmes. The Pope said of its founding: "It was necessary to open up for the workers a transition from being mere physical, unknowing tools of production to being conscious workers, more and more ready for participation in the responsible and intellectual phases of production.

Speaking of communism. the Pope said: "It seems to us that we see a latent uneasiness in many honest workers. which may be on the verge of becoming conscious. These workers are at last doubtful whether it is worthy of them and useful to their cause to yield supinely to the clamourous and insinuating suggestions of atheistic and subversive Marxism." said such - Pope Paul workers are now wondering "whether they should not look for a better way, less questionable from a scientific and sociological point of view." Those in the Pope's audienCe were in Rome for the ninth convention of their association.

I have found • complete contentment." the Bishop said in an interview here. Bishop Gibbons, who was the sixth Bishop of Albany, serving from 1919 until 1954. now resides at St. Peter's Hospital. He attends Mass each day and enjoys reading. Told that when Archbishop Alfonso Carinci died in Rome on December 6 at the age of 101 he became the oldest bishop. the prelate was gently doubtful. "I am sceptical about my being the oldest bishoi', in the world. Didn't I read last month or the month before of one older than I in the Orient?" he asked. But advised that a canvass by the N.C.W.C. News Service shows hitt) to be the oldest bishop. the prelate again referred to the happiness of his later years, especially those spent. at the Mater Christi Seminary here, "where I enjoyed seeing young men in the course of training for the priesthood." Bishop Gibbons was born in Hartsdale, New York State, on September 16, 1868.

The imagination, becalise it is a power of the soul, can imagine the infinite. But reality is finite, cabined, cribbed, confined and limited. Hence arises the disproportion between what we imagined something to be, and what it turns out to be in the concrete. Because one imagines oneself perfectly happy in love with another, it does not follow that it will alwayz be so. Every man promises every woman something that only God alone can give— perfect contentment, perfect joy. Every woman promises every man something only God can give— perfect love, perfect happiness. In order to avoid the test of reality, all films and romantic novels about love end with the classic expression---and they lived happily ever afterwards." They make it appear that marriage is a conclusion, when really it is a point of departure.

a "Prince Charming" because your imagination crowned him with an aureole of perfection, now finds that he is just a man. Every woman marries a man and lives with a husband; every man marries a woman and lives with a wife. But marriage is not a snare nor an illusion because it does not fulfil all dreams. The reality, which very often young people refuse to see, can be just as beautiful as the dream — though it is vastly different than the dream. Many a husband or wife, years after marriage, say: "When I was married, I thought I loved my wife (or my husband) so much that it would be impossible to love more. Now I know that that sentiment was nothing compared to the love I have today." An old friend came to visit a young married man and said to him: "I am an old friend of the family. I knew your wife before you married.- The young man answered: 'Unfortunately, I did not know her untilI married her." Every bride is half woman and half dream; every groom is half man and half dream.
No present love can be insured for the future. Love is something that is tested by time. It grows not because of its intensity at the beginning.

Newspaper Urges Support For Italy's Coalition Government Vatican City's daily newspaper has thrown its weight behind Italian Premier Aldo Moro's coalition with the Socialists in the face of mounting opposition within Moo's own Christian Democratic party. In two editorials, L'Osservatore Romano urged Catholics to rally round Moro's Catholic - inspired party. Powerful party members led by former Premiers Mario Scelba and Giuseppe Pella had threatened to withhold their support from Moro's centre-left government in the parliamentary vote of confidence required for every new government, Scelba and company object to any collaboration with Pietro Nenni's Socialists because of their Marxism and neutralism, The first editorial on December 13 spoke in veiled terms of unity among Catholics without referring to the political crisis. It only said that "any breach in the
unity of Catholics in any field means joy for the enemies of the Faith." But the very day that edition appeared, the breach within the Christian Democratic party became public knowledge. Two days later L'Osservatore spok e forthrightly about the threat to split the Christian Democratic party and the unconcealed satisfaction of some Italian newspapers at this revolt in the party's leadership. It said: "Certain newspapers are expressing satisfaction at the split within the Christian Democratic party ,saying that the party 'has had a jolt at last' and that this may have beneficial results for the politi-

Rent Racket Denied
LONDON: A Church of England spokesman has denied reports from Rome that Archbishop Michael Ramsey of Canterbury will visit the Holy Land in January at the same time as Pope Paul VI. He said that such reports in overseas newspapers contained "no truth whatever." Meanwhile in London, Inter-Church Tr a v e 1, an interdenominational group, in co-operation with the AllNight Vigil Group, Catholic pilgrimage organisers, have announced plans for a pilgrimage to the Holy Land while the Pope is there. It said it was inviting the leaders of the various churches here to take part or send representatives. Present plans are that scheduled jet airliners will leave London today (January 2) taking two groups of pilgrims, one to Israel and the other to Jordan. They will return on Jonuary 7. NO RACKET The Rev. Arthur Payton, Anglican chairman of Inter. Church Travel, issued on December 13 a statement to the press saying that his earlier announcement that there was a price racket in the Holy Land during the
Pope's visit was greatly exaggerated. It was "based on a report from usually reliable sources outside the countries concerned which had in this instance proved to be greatly exaggerated," he said. "The respective government tourist authorities are doing all in their power to assist pilgrims and others to visit their countries at the normal charges and as always to protect visitors from inflationary practice." The Jordan Embassy in London also issued a statement denying British newspaper reports that prices of hotel rooms in the Holy Land would be increased during the Pope's visit. The Jordan government has set up a special committee headed by the Prime Minister to supervise the various aspects of the Holy Father's visit and to facilitate the stay of His Holiness and all pilgrims and tourists in Jordan at the time, it added. ,

The highranking politician asked: "Is communism such a grave threat for our country as to justify the grieving appeal ot the Italian Episcopate which is now echoed by L'Ossarvatore Romano? If so, and the results of the April eloctions proved it, then the policy of the Christian Democrats must shape itself to this reality." Italy's communists gained about a million votes in that elect bn.

WASHINGTON.—THE DEATH OF POPE JOHN. XXIII WAS THE MAJOR STORY FOR 1963 FOR U.S. AND CANADIAN CATHOLIC
NEWSPAPERS,
POLL OF EDITORS REVEALS. . The June 3 death of the 81-year-old Pope, who died with a prayer for Christian unity on his lips, emerged as top story of the year in the second annual poll conducted by the N.c.w.c. News Service. • THE death of another "John" — President John F. Kennedy, who was killed by a sniper in Dallas, Texas, on November 22 — was selected by editors as the year's second biggest story for diocesan newspapers. • THIRD in the choice of editors was the June 21 election of Giovanni Battista Cardinal Montini who chose the name of Pope Paul VI. The other seven stories in the top ten are: • THE issuing during Holy Week of Pope John's monumental encyclical on peace, "Pacem in Terris" (Peace on Earth), which was addressed not only to Catholics but to all men of
goodwill and which earned w orld-wide acclaim.

• THE action of administrators at the Catholic University of America who removed the names of four prominent "liberal" theologians from a list of candidates proposed by students as speakers for a campus lecture series during Lent.
• THE September 21 address of Pope Paul to members of the Roman Curia in which he announced he will simplify and decentralise the Church's central administrative body. • THE months-long controversy in Vietnam over the alleged persecution of Buddhists and favouritism for Catholics by the government of the late President Ngo dinh Diem. • THE formal promulgation on December 4 by Pope Paul of the two decrees of the Second Vatican Council, one calling for major changes in Church liturgy and the other dealing with
CHANGE MADE IN AID BILL W ASHINGTON.—The foreign aid bill sent by Congress to President Johnson contained a population research provision far different from the birth control programme once embodied in the measure. In its final form, the bill contained a section permitting money to be spent "to conduct research into the p roblem of population growth."
Final congressional action came as the Senate approved the bill by a vote of 61 to 26. The House had given its approval by a vote of 195 to 164.
This was a significant change from earlier language that would have allowed "technical and other assistance to co-operating countries in carrying out programmes of population control."
CONTROVERSIAL The controversial birth control section appeared in the original Senate version of the legislation, but not in the House bill. It was placed in the Senate bill in July by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee at the urging of committee chairman, Senator J. William Fulbright, of Arkensas. This was the first time that language authorising a birth control programme had been written into the foreign aid bill. When the bill was approved by the Senate in November, the birth control section remained in it. The modified language providing only for research on population problems was adopted by Senate-House conferees early in December. Opposition to the birth control provision was voiced in October by a national Catholic spokesman. In a letter to Senator Fulbright, Monsignor Paul F. Tanner, general secretary of the National Catholic Welfare Conference, said such a programme would "infringe upon the freedom of c onscience of many citizens."

English IL Mass For Us On his return, His Grace made the following statement concerning the decree on the Constitution of the Sacred Liturgy. "The Constitution of the Sacred Liturgy promulgated on December 4 is the first achievement of the Vatican Council II. It will affect the spiritual life of prayer and worship of all Catholics; it will make the Church more comprehensible to all men. His Grace said that the Bishops of Australia had taken part fully in the discussion, amendment and acceptance of this document and that they welcomed it wholeheartedly and dedicate themselves to fulfil its purpose. His Grace said: "One very important change is the concession of the vernacular languages in the liturgy for the sake of people's understanding, piety and easier participation. "For the Mass the council has allowed the vernacular for the Lessons, and for the parts of the people; in effect, for most of the parts said aloud up to the Canon, and for such parts as the Sanctus, Our Father, etc. "For the Sacraments and sacramentals, the vernacular is allowed throughout.

Three Major Efforts
• THREE MAJOR ROAD CAMPAIGNS SAFETY WILL BE ORGANISED DURING 1964. This was decided at a meeting of the Australian Road Safety Council attended by representatives of Commonwealth and State Governments and Commonwealth Territories, private mtorists, commercial road t ransport, the automotive industry and transport employees. Early in 1964 the risks of excessive speed will be featured. This campaign will be followed in July by publicity directed to elderly pedestrians. In the last quarter of the year a national campaign to promote seat belts will be organised in association with the Safety Belt Manufacturers Group. A special feature of the campaigns will be increased concentration on country residents, in view of the high road accident rate in country areas. "Road Safety Starts With YOU!" will continue to be the national road safety slogan during 1964. The Council also agreed to an expansion of the A.R. S.C. "Report" in 1964. Commencing in April, each issue will contain eight pages to enable a much wider coverage of road safety, and particularly the printing of more material suited for reproduction in the press. ILESHA, Nigeria: Nigerian Yoruba tribesmen have made an Irish-born White Father a chief in gratitude for his 16 years of work among them. A group of Yoruba chiefs gave Father Thomas Kingston, W.F., the beads of a Yoruba chief and the name -Chief Majeobaje." Normally a chieftancy is conferred at the King's palace, acompanied by pagan ceremonies. This time however, the ceremony took place at the parish church following a Mass celebrated by the chief-elect and confirmation of new converts. Father Kingston is pastor of a parish here which has 28 sub-stations and about 15,000 Catholics and catechumens. The parish also has 16 primary schools.

He also said that mixed marriages are a difficult problem for the Lutheran Church as well as for the Catholic Church. He said he expects the council's next session to study the problem.

represenatives of Papua-New Guinea. Bishop Doggett will more than likely be back in Rome at Easter to bring the feel of actual mission work into the Commission's deliberations. A tennis ball played an important part in the success of Bishop Doggett's mission. He moved into the Aitape region in 1964, where there had been German Divine Word missionaries before the war. With six other missionaries, Bishop Doggett took his time and learnt some of the language. After two years he felt ready to enter the Torricelli mountains which flank the northern coast near what was then the Dutch New Guinea border. With native carriers, Bishop Doggett walked into the mountains which were the scene of fierce tribal fighting. He waited outside the first village until, through the good offices of a carrier, he was invited to enter it. As the Bishop was the first white man the villagers had seen, they took him as a ghost, so women, children and many of the men fled to the bush. Bishop Doggett stood in the centre of the village conscious of scores of eyes watching him from the thick vegetation. He took out a tennis ball and began throwing it to the carrier, After they had played for some time, the ball rolled down near the bush. A youngster emerged to throw it back, others joined him, then gradually the mothers returned and finally the men.
gett heard of Italian missionaries of his order, the Franciscans, who had run a leprosarium on the Tibetan frontier, but were imprisoned by the Chinese and then released in Hong Kong. He received permission to use them in his mission, so after a holiday in Australia where they recovered from their imprisonment, they established the Aitape leprosarium, which is now staffed by other missionaries.
A Long Way THERE are now 480 lepers (six of them cannibals) with their dependants in the leprosarium, and with the drugs discovered in recent years all can hope on a cure. Bishop Doggett believes that leprosy can be wiped out within 25 years. Things have moved a long way since the Bishop and
his district which counts a hundred thousand souls—a third of them Catholic. The greatest advance has come about with the use of a plane and transistor radios. The Cessna aircraft is run by Irvine Reed, O.F.M. and D.F.C., an ex-Spitfire pilot, who was the first man to shoot down a VI. There are also two lay missionary pilots for this plane, which brings places which are a week's walk away within 23 minutes flying time. Bishop Doggett rises at 4.45 each morning, breaks off work at 10.30 and resumes at four in the afternoon. At 8 a.m. he begins to speak to his four main stations over the radio and at any time he can communicate by radio with the 28 Father, nine Brothers, 12 Sisters and 26 lay missionaries at work in the 18 mission stations.
ing over mountains. Although his people want their bishop and are offended if others substitute for him in ceremonies, he is looking forward to the day when he can retire to be chaplain at the leprosarium. He is uncertain, however, of the future before New Guinea.
A Thrashing "PAPUA. NEW GUINEA took a thrashing during the war in Australia's place" is Bishop Doggett's viewpoint and he was content that the Australian Bishops, as a body, became aware of their responsibility to the territories during the second Council session. He considers the Australian Government is doing a

Took Nursing Course THAT was Bishop Dozgett's introduction to the villagers; he won their lasting support by taking their lepers to the leprosarium he established in Aitape. It took him five years to work his way round his whole district, whose furthest point is about one week's walk away from Aitape. A nursing course at St. Vincent's, Sydney, under Mother Clare enabled the Bishop and the other missionaries to treat diseases such as yaws. They made gifts of such things as razor blades, and Australian dailies also aided the missionary effort—they were more suitable for rolling cigarettes than the dried banana leaf in use. Such gifts won sympathy — but taking away the lepers, and curing them, won allegiance. Bishop Dog-
S TATISTICS CAN BE INTERESTING. During the fiscal year of 1963, Americans paid excise taxes of 13.4 billion dollars. Over half this amount came from taxes on liquor, gasoline and cigarettes. This rather astronomical figure refers to taxes cnly. The amount of money spent annually to purchase these three items is a trifle beyond the imagination of the average man to grasp. At the same time that all this money was being spent, 20 million Americans, that is, one out of ten, were existing in such abject poverty that they had to do without even the bare necessities of life. These are our fellow citizens, whom most of us never see, who have been living in families of four with income of less than 2,500 dollars annually.
S HOCKING
PARADOX
ANOTHER 26 million people live at minimum adequacy levels. These are families of four with annual incomes of less than 4,500 dollars. These 46 million Americans constitute what one authority calls " a shocking paradox in American life. When the economy dips, their plight worsens; but when it rises, they benefit little if at all." There seems to be something to the old saying that "the poor get poorer." But statistics are told things. Think of these people in terms of a teenage girl who has one dress for school and one shoe. She borrows a shoe from a girl-friend in order to attend class. Think of the mother of three who had exactly five cents to last six days. This last is not too unusual. In one survey of these people, all the families involved ran out of money between one cheque and another. This was not due to mismanagement. The income was just inadequate to meet the rent and the food bills. Eighty per cent of the boys involved and 50 per cent of the girls had only one pair of shoes. Fifty per cent of the children had no rubbers or overshoes and 75 per cent had no raincoats.
J OYLESS
The SR-N3, a 37;-ton Hovercraft built for evaluation by Britain's military authorities, has completed its initial engine test programme and will be launched at Cowes, on the Isle of Wight, shortly to continue manufacturer's trials. When these trials are completed in May 1964, it will be handed over to the Hovercraft Trials Unit, a Joint Services Establishment, near Southampton. The SR-N3 has been ordered for the Ministry of Aviation and the Hovercraft Trials Unit will investigate its full potential as a military vehicle. The SR-N3 is fitted with a long flexible skirt which gives it a much wider amphibious capability and allows it to operate over rougher seas and higher land obstacles than hitherto. his men moved in immediately after the war.

Lay Missionaries THERE are 17 male lay missionaries and nine girls. They are mostly teachers, but in addition to the pilots mentioned there are mechanics, builders and a physiotherapist who have all contacted the mission through the Pauline Association's missionary office in Sydney. Bishop Doggett calls them " the most dedicated body of people I've come across" and fears that "the mission would collapse without them." They have their fare to and from the mission paid as well as their keep. They sign on for three years at a time, and one the Bishop's worries is continuity of, for instance, teachers, although some have extended their stay as long as 14 years.

fine job to meet the educational needs of the people and in this work the missions are playing a vital role. But with only two students at university standard and perhaps five others at matriculation st andar d, Papua-New Guinea is about three generations a way from the stage where it could govern itself. Australia will be lucky if it has ten more years to educate Papua-New Guinea before independence, according to Bishop Doggett, and it will be luckier still if independence is not accompanied by upheavals. The Church in New Guinea will have to make superb efforts now if it is to avoid desperate measures in a few years time. Bishop Doggett made a point by taking back from the Council films of himself with black bishops to show his people the Church is not confined to white people. Doubtless he will have many telling points to make to the Council Commission when he returns from Aitape at Easter. _
LIFE
THESE are American children who go to bed hungry more often than not, who travel the wintry streets inadequately clothed, who have no money for medical care when they catch the usual respiratory infections and who live in a half-world of apathy, listlessness and disease. They scrounge for an existence now and their hopes for the future are dim. They can't help themselves and, unless something is done for them, they can look forward only to a joyless life of emptiness and despair. A recent news story carried the item of an owner of a horse, who had confined the animal in a chicken coop without feed. When the horse was discovered in a starving condition, the owner was charged and convicted of cruelty by neglect.' While no court could charge us with a collective responsibility for cruelty by neglect of almost 50 million of our fellow-citizens, certainly our Christian consciences should be stirred. What were those old-fashioned corporal works of mercy — feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, clothe the naked, shelter the homeless?

U.S. Colleges Can Seek Financial Assistance WASHINGTON: APPROVAL OF AID FOR CLASSROOM CONSTRUCTION AT ALL U.S. COLLEGES IS A MAJOR CONGRESSIONAL MOVE IN THE CONTROVERSY OVER GOVERNMENT HELP FOR PRIVATE EDUCATION. But both sponsors and critics of the measure agree more discussion will be heard on the Church-State issue raised by its equal treatment of public, private and church-related colleges. Adopted by the House on November 6 by a 258 to 93 vote and by the Senate on December 10 by a 54 to 27 ballot, the bill establishes a five-year 1.2-billion-dollar programme. Colleges can seek Federal assistance to help finance construction of non - religious facilities. They can ask for either outright grants for one-third of a project's cost or repayable loans for up to 75 per cent of cost. The money can be applied only to libraries and buildings to be used for instruction or research in the natural and physical sciences, mathematics, modern foreign languages and engineering. The bill specifically bars use of Federal funds for any facility to be used for "sectarian instruction,' for religious worship or primarily for any part of the programme of a school or department of divinity. NOT ENDED Even though the bill includes church-related colleges on an equal footing with all others, this fact does not end Senate controversy over alleged ChurchState issues, the matter which dominated Senate debate. The bill passed the Senate under a truce in the controversy. A few days before final Senate action on the measure, its sponsor, Senator Wayne Morse of Oregon, introduced a separate bill which would give taxpayers the legal power to block in Federal courts any assistance for church-related colleges. A bloc of southerners, led by Senator Sam J. Ervin of North Carolina, wanted such a provision in the bill itself. The Senate earlier had approved this approach. But such a "judicial review" provision was scrappedd in House-Senate conferences on a compro-

mise version of the bill. Morses separate bill took the steam out of efforts to keep it in the measure. Morse told the Senate his sub-committee on education will take up the review issue next year. He argued successfully that extensive hearings, with testimony from ranking constitutional experts, was necessary before the Senate makes up its mind on whether to permit individual taxpayers the unusual power to block Federal expenditures. OVER TWO THOUSAND Denial of Federal benefits to church-related and other private colleges would have a serious impact on U.S. higher education. Most American colleges are privately operated and a majority of these private institutions are related to churches. The U.S. Office of Education has reported that in 1962, there were 2,100 colleges and universities. Of these 1,357 were privately operated. The U.S. office said the nation has 842 church-related institutions of higher education — 482 Protestant, 335 Catholic, nine interdenominational, eight Jewish, six Latter Day Saints, two Russian Orthodox, one Greek Orthodox, one Unitarian.

Britain's First Outdoor Artificial Skiing Slope
Education, a federation of individual institutions and of organisations representing higher education, vigorously supported the college aid bill, as did the U.S. Commissioner of Education Francis Keppel. VOCATIONAL However, three public school groups fought it. They charged that its inclusion of private schools would undermine public education and "open the door to Federal tax support of private education at all levels." Three days after it cleared the college bill for President Johnson's action, Congress also approved and sent to the White House a 731 - million - dollar programme to expand vocational training offered in public institutions over the next four years. It also adopted a 304-million-dollar extension of the 1958 National Defence Educational Act, increasing the act's popular programme of loans to needy college students from £90 millon dollars to 135 million dollars annually. Both public and private institutions and their personnel share in provisions of this act, although they are treated dissimilarly in some sections.

The mounting interest in Britain in skiing has produced the first outdoor artificial skiing slope at the south coast holiday resort of Torquay, England. First to test the newly installed slope at Pontin's Barton Hal l Chalet Hotel were members of the Swiss ski team visiting Britain. Behind the opening of this new slope and the growing demand in Britain for allthe-year-round skiing surfaces is the story of two British firms who combined to produce the "finest" artificial slope made so far. Constructed from wavy lines of metal trough filled with plastic bristle, this diamond patterned ski surface evoked nothing but praise from the experts from Scandinavia and and Central Europe who gave displays on it at Britain's International Winter Sports Exhibition in London earlier this year. Many declared this British slope the finest yet made. Development of the surface involved the manufacture of special Vybak polyvinylchloride monofilarnents designed specifically for skiing.

SELF MASTERY Cardinal Bea pointed out that the indispensable foundation of such liberty is always that liberty from the rule of passions, which is known self-mastery. as This aspect of liberty was underlined by St. Paul, the Cardinal said. He called St. Paul "the herald and hero of liberty." Freedom from his passions allows man to seek truth, Cardinal Bea said, and pointed out: "The very first grave duty of man is to seek to know the whole of that reality which is his law, and then to seek passionately for truth, liberating himself earnestly from ignorance and from error. "Everyone must therefore seek every possibility of moral and religious instruction."
Father Thomas McGlynn ,O.P. would be a natural as chaplain of Italy's colony of American expatriate artists, if the artists ever got organised. Pending that unlikely event the American priest-sculptor is chaplain at two highly-organised institutions: the convent of cloistered Dominican nuns at Pisa and the district jail at Pietrasanta, about 20 miles from Pisa.
At Pietrasanta, where marble has been quarried and statues created since Michaelangelo first saw its possibilities, Father McGlynn also has his studio. But the Dominican sculptor has come to Rome with his latest works and put them in exhibition in the Cavalieri-Hilton Hotel. One is a life-sized bust of Pope Paul VI, the other, a fulllength figure of the Pope, something over two feet tall, walking with arms opened in a gesture of we!come and of blessing. Both are in bronze. Father McGlynn is preparing a limited edition of reproductions of these bronzes for use in the United States. F ATIMA STATUE Father McGlynn, born at Petaluma, Calif., 57 years ago, has been working at Pietrasanta almost eight
English In Mass Early In New Year EDINBURGH, Scotland. — The Catholic Church in Scotland will begin experimenting with the use of English in the Mass early in 1964, according to Archbishop Gordon Gray, of St. Andrews and Edinburgh. Scotland's top-ranking Catholic prelate said that English will be used in the beginning of the Mass through the Gospel or the Creed. But he said this will be only a temporary measure pending a final agreement on a uniform liturgy between the Bishops of Scotland, England and Wales, and Ireland. The use of English in the Mass in Scotland will presumably be initiated soon after next February 16, when Pope Paul VI is to announce the norms for implementing the liturgical changes provided for by the Ecumenical Council.
TOP RIORITY Archbishop Gray, who is one of nine bishops from ten English-speaking countries entrusted last October with drawing up a common English text for the liturgy, said this international group is treating the matter urgently. He said also that representatives of the three Hierarchies of the British Isles will meet early next year to seek mutual agreement on the adoption of changes envisaged by the council. While a date for Mass in English is receiving top priority, he said, an agreement is also being sought on a common translation and on the extent of English to be used.
years. He went there to nurse a gigantic block of marble out of the quarry and shape it into his principal work: a 1541t. statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary that now stands over the portal of the basilica at Fatima in Portugal. There it is seen by millions of pilgrims. Father McGlynn carved the statue according to detailed descriptions given him by Sister Lucy, only survivor of the three little seers of Fatima. A 12-foot statue of the same subject was commissioneed by Richard Cardinal Cushing of Boston, and now stands near the Cardinal's home. Cardinal Cushing recently commissioned Father McGlynn to do a statue of blessed Julie Billiart, foundress of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. When Father McGlynn asked him what kind of statue he wanted the Cardinal replied, ."Oh. I don't know. They'd probably like it big. Make it big." End of instructions.
For all Father McGlynn's youthful appearance he has been sculpturing I by his own account) for more than
half a century. He started at the age of four. His first medium was clay. He is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. and also studied with the late Carl Mines at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan.
STRONG REALISM Father McGlynn works in a style that is not easily classified but is always characterised by strong realism. What does he, as a basically realistic' artist. t hink of the abstractions of modern art? "Modern art is right to give first place to form and expression rather than to subject matter," he says. "But it's a mistake to think that good form and expression are limited to abstract art. On the other hand, descriptive realism cannot by itself make a painting or a statue a valid work of art: it must always have good form and expression. " I would be happy .to see able modern artists coming to grips with the problem of subject matter. It is cartainly indispensable in sacred art."

EIGHT cities have been chosen as sites for the 1964 Summer Schools of Catholic Action sponsored by The Queen's Work, National Sodality Service Centre in St. Louis, according to the Rev. James A. Condon, S.J., national director. Figures just released reveal that more than 10,000 delegates attended the summer schools in nine cities during the summer of 1963. Statistics list 9,550 laymen, 1,161 nuns, 274 priests, Brothers and seminarians, and nine bishops at the six-day sessions. More than a quarter of a million students have attended the summer schools over their 33-year history, Father Condon said. This summer, Ronald Mazur, of Notre Dame High, Harper Woods, Michigan, became Student No. 250,000 to pass through the turnstiles at the Chicago summer school. The occasion was doubly significant since the sodality this year celebrated its 400th anniversary and the Queen's Work noted its 50th year as a Sodality Service Centre.

She does not forget that it is from the heart of one of your sons that came the vast and splendid movement of the Young Christian Workers, which has now spread to five continents. Nor could she forget that Belgium sends the elite of her missionaries and her nuns to the farthest corners of the world."

First Elections In 40 Years
THE Franciscans in Korea have acquired a site in Seoul on which to build a Korean language school for foreign missionaries in Korea. First classes will begin next September.
THE government coalition of the Christian Democratic and Popular Action parties scored major gains in Peru's municipal elections, the first in 40 years. The coalition increased its vote by ten per cent compared with the June 9 election in which the coalition leader, Fernando Belaunde Terry was elected President of Peru. For the past forty years mayors in Peru have been named by the central government. Popular election of mayors was a plank in Belaunde's platform in the June election. Elected Mayor of Lima was a Christian Democrat, Luis Bedoya Reyes.
The language centre, to be known as St. Francis Friary, will be staffed by Friars Minor from Italy, Canada and the Netherlands. It will be under the jurisdiction of Father A. Van Leeuwen, 0.F.M, the new Franciscan Delegate in Korea. Father Van Leeuwen had served as Franciscan Delegate in Japan until the announcement from Rome on December 4 that Korea had been raised to a separate Franciscan region no longer subject to Tokyo, and than Father Van Leeuwen was being transferred there.

Tradition Unchan ed By Council MUNICH. — Christian tradition has consistently regarded the college of the bishops as the successor of the college of the apostles, and the Church has so taught all along, says Father Karl Rohner, S.J. The outstanding German theologian and a member of the faculty of Austria's Innsbruck University pinpointed his views in an article in Stimmen der Zeit, a Jesuit monthly edited here. Father Rahner, a theological expert of the Ecumenical Council and a member of its influential theological commission, believes that the council is likely to reaffirm this traditional view of episcopal collegiality. "It probably will state," he says, "that in the Church there is not only a combination (summa) subsequently and intellectually established, of many individual bishops, but a college as a collegial unity in its true meaning, a moral person. "It is also likely to state that this unity of the episcopate as a whole, constituted as a college, belongs to the unchange a b 1 e established law of the Church which is 'divine,' not one of the Church in the sense of positive changeable law. ONLY WITH POPE "It also will probably state that this college has its head in the Roman Pontiff, who is not only first -among equals, but in his capacity as successor of Peter and thus head of the college, has the powers which are his according to definition of the First Vatican Council. Accordingly, this college has its standing only in unity with the Pontiff and can act as a college only in such unity." Father Rahner expects the council to draw the conclusion from these premises by stating that the college of bishops, understood in these terms, is the bearer of the supreme and full power in the Church which the episcopal college as a whole can exercise not only at an ecumenical council, but outside of it as well, always in co-operation with the Pontiff.
SHARE conclusion in Another Father Rahner's view will likely be that each bishop shares in the responsibility for the whole Church even though not individually in its jurisdiction, and he adds that regional episcopal conferences are the result of such a "brotherly unity among the bishops." As for the consequences to be drawn from such an understanding of the issue of episcopal collegiality, which still is one of the foremost topics to be considered by the council, Father Rahner holds that many related questions remain theologically debatable especially as far as the relationship between the
MOMENTOUS DOCUMENT MANILA.—One of the world's top liturgy scholars has hailed the decree on worship enacted by the Ecumenical Council os "the most momentous single document in the whole liturgical legislation of the Catholic Church." Father Johannes Hofinger, S.J., Austrian-born director of the East Asian Pastoral Institute here, wrote on the liturgy constitution in a special article in the Sentinel, national Catholic weekly published here. FIRST PLACE Noting that the decree promulgated by Pope Paul VI on December 4 "supplies the norms for a thorough overhaul of the Church's public worship," Father Hofinger said: "The constitution teaches us how the Church herself understands her worship and how she reserves for it the very first place in her life. In this great document she clearly

Pontiff and the college bishops is concerned, whom the Pope himself a member. UNDERSTANDING Father Rahner doubts that the council will be in a position to spell out the ways in which bishops act collegially outside of an ecumenoical council. Likewise he sees as improbable an intensive examination into what intiatives can properly be undertaken by individual members of the episcopal college under the supreme authority of the Bishop of Rome. Such an examination would imply, he states, the proper understanding of infallibility as one pertaining not to the Roman Pontiff alone, but also to the whole college of bishops, headed by the Pope certain prerequisites are fulfilled. In this connection Father Rahner also points out that the frequently discussed proposal that a body of bishops assume functions in the supreme government of the Church, directly under the Pope and in conjunction with him, must not be understood as looking towards more than consultative functions at the behest of the Pope.

sets forth, once and for all, why she must promote and require full and active participation of all faithful in the sacred mysteries." For a long time active participation of the laity in the liturgy was quite commonly neglected or even considered as dangerous, the priest said. Concerning liturgy reform, he said: "For centuries countless Catholics considered the whole set-up of the liturgy as the perfect work of the Holy Spirit which, like the Bible, should be preserved unchanged until the last judgment . . . "It is significant that some of the most drastic changes are primarily motivated by a will to achieve as much ,as possible, not just some, but a perfect interior and exterior participation of the faithful in sacred liturgy." Father Hofinger said "this ' first gift of the council' means above all a most valuable gift of Mother Church for her laity."

He later led the monks to Prinknash and in 1938 was elected Abbot. In 1952, Abbot Upson came to New Norcia on an official visitation and also inspected our Mission at Kalumburu, with which he was delighted. He described the Mission as an ideal form of Ilinedictine apostolate. The late Abbot was succeeded by his co-ad jutor, Dom Dyfrig Rushton. May he rest in peace.

COUNCIL TITBITS ROME: The council Fathers c ertainly are going to miss the Pieta in St. Peter's Basilica when they reconvene for their third session next year. By that time Michelangelo's masterpiece will still he on exhibition at the Vatican pavilion at the New York World's Fair. Artistic considrations as well as religious will be the primary reasons for regretting the temporary disappearance of this great sculpture from its niche. But there are others, too. For "Meet me at the Pieta" was the phrase frequently used when council arwere appointments ranged. "Meet me in Bar Jona" was another, and, of course, various other spots in the huge chamber were suitable for get-togethers during the sessions. But the Pieta corner in the back of the hall on the Epistle side of the altar was by far the most popular, for there it was quiet, and one would incur no risk of missing one's partner. The Fathers certainly will be looking forward to the Pieta's homecoming. THE HOLY FATHER has been most generous with. his hime. He granted general audiences mornings and evenings to as many people as could possibly be crowded into his busy schedule. Shortly before the last session's closing he received theological the experts, three days later the secretaries of the council Fathers, then the priest ushers and finally the chauffeurs whose services were particularly appreciated by all the bishops. Only one category of assistants seems to have been forgotten—the typists. "Don't we deserve some consideration, too?" asked one of the girls who had been turning out reams of copy day after day. Consolingly a council F ather replied: "Don't worry, it'll be your turn the next time." The girls certainly should get a break for it was a yeoman job they - did on their typewriters and duplicating machines.

ENGLISH BREVIARIES FROM FEBRUARY 16 ON HIS RETURN FROM THE SECOND SESSION OF THE COUNCIL, ARCHBISHOP G. YOUNG OF HOBART GAVE AN INTERVIEW TO "THE STANDARD." Among the many topics in the interview was the following concerning the Breviary. Priests in Australia will be able to get permission from their bishops to say the Breviary in English as from the first Sunday in Lent, February 16. This follows a decision made by the bishops of Australia while attending the second session of the council in Rome. The liturgy decree provides that regional conferences of bishops must approve a translation into the vernacular before priests can use it. The Australian bishops have approved the translation made under the direction of Father Godfrey Diekman, O.S.B. The first volume of this Breviary, which has English and Latin in parallel columns, was published at the beginning of December by St. John's Abbey Liturgical Press, Collegeville, Minnesota, U.S.A. The Collegeville Breviary is in three volumes. The first is rather bulky, a little bigger than the old "big and Benzinger." Psalms other Scripture readings are from the Confraternity translation of the Bible. Blanket permissions to use the English Breviary will not be given. The liturgy decree stipulates that permission may be given "in individual cases . . . to those clerics for whom Latin constitutes a grave obstacle to their praying their office properly." Each request by priests will be considered strictly on its merits, said Archbishop Young. but added that bishops would show "paternal magnanimity" in granting permission. The Archbishop has ordered 50 copies of the Col-
legeville Breviary, which will be sold to priests in Tasmania at cost. The 196364 Year Book of the Church in Australia lists 113 priests in the Archdiocese of Hobart. During the interview he read sample translations interlarded were which with observations about the impact the English Breviary would have on the spiritual life of priests, for many of whom the Breviary is virtually a closed book though they read from it for about an hour every day. A "contemplative use" of the Breviary, he said, will gradually replace the "Jesusand-me" brand of piety commonly infused into priests during their years of training. SEMINARIES From discussion of English in the liturgy, Archbishop Young moved to the place of Latin in seminaries. "I think," he said, "that there is developing a great movement which questions the vialbility of Latin as a means of teaching our students for the priesthood. ...."I am convinced that our students could be taught far more theology if Latin were replaced by the vernacular. Even now there are books in English which could give a far deeper and broader insight into theology than the textbooks used in most seminaries."
But Archbishop Young does not want to see Latin dropped f rom seminary studies. The liturgy decree, he pointed out, stresses the importance of Latin. Further, he said that, if Latin were not used as the language in which students for the priesthood are taught, "better Latinists would be produced in our seminaries. "I strongly hold that more than ever we should insist on the study of Latin. It is needed the to unlock thoughts contained in the writings of the Western Fathers. "Greek and Hebrew should assume more importance in our seminaries because they are the languages of the Bible and of the Eastern Fathers. "If lectures were given in English and if the texts of ready reference were in English, students would be able to spend more time acquiring skill in the great religious languages of the past." On top of a pile of mail which arrived during the interview with Archbishop Young was the December edition of Michael de la Bedoyere's "Search." As he paged through it he would r ead: "Catholics wonder how the Anglicans can learn any theology in so short a course; the Anglicans wonder how the Catholics can learn so little in a course lasting six years."

In keeping with the efforts being made in the Stella ninety-odd other Mans Clubs throughout the world's ports, a link in the chain of service to seafarers is maintained here in Fremantle. For those engaged in this work, it is remarkable how small the world becomes. Quite a young seaman the other day mentioned that Turkey was the only maritime country in the world which he had not visited. MANY WELCOMES It is consoling to be able to report that welcome was extended to 26,759 seamen visitors to the club during the year. That may seem impressive, but could it be said that each of those wanderers did visit us because he felt he would be welcome, that he was in fact welcomed by somebody, that he was in fact renewed and refreshed spiritually and mentally because of his visit? Then, and then only, could we say the Stella Mans Club is fulfilling its purpose as the spiritual, social and material welfare centre for seafarers. The Apostleship of the Sea, through its centres at each port, strives to create as far as possible the parish atmosphere for the seafarer while he's in port. More than that, -such a centre should e really bright and homely. While it is not exactly the seafarer's home, we would have him use it as his headquarters ashore when in port. When released from the duties of his ship, it will be his home, his club to meet his friends from other ships, his library, his reading and writing room, his post office and savings bank, his information a n d employment
By Father J. O'Shea, Port Chaplain bureau, and his place of entertainment and recreaiton in the form of social functions, weekly concerts and games, outdoor sports, picnics and outings. Somebody has referred to the seafarer when ashore as literally "a duck out of water." As a consequence, seafarers are encouraged while ashore to be selfrespecting, to observe law and order, to save their money, to send it home, to avoid the temptations of a port city, and especially to advocate temperance. While all seafarers are equally welcome to use the benefits of the club, the Catholic seafarer is encouraged and given every opportunity to attend to the duties of his religion. The club amenities include a chapel where Holy Mass is celebrated three times each week in the evenings by the Port Chaplain. Sick and injured seamen are visited regularly in hospital by the Port Chaplain; the club hostesses and by junior members of the Legion of Mary. IN OUR NAME The extension of Christmas hospitality towards all seafarers temporarily in the port of call is made in the name of the local Catholic community. It is a case of one portion of the Mystical Body of Christ lending a helping hand to another portion. All the community cannot help or even participate to the same degree. Very many already do in a variety of of ways. Through prayer for

the spiritual welfare of those at sea all can participate. Some groups go further and adopt particular ships and in addition collect literature for distribution to those ships. More immediate participation is possible and very necessary through actual membership of the club, where a personal service is possible through any one of the club branches — manage ment committee, ladies' auxiliary. club hostesses, club hosts and ship visitors. Should you be prepared to give a little time and your talents to this most rewarding form of the lay apostolate, please ring 5-1958 at any time.

Thanks also to those who regularly send in magazines and books for distribution to the ships— more than 150,000 items of reading have been distributed during the year. Thanks to the schools and Junior Legion of Mary Praesidia and other groups for their ready response to our recent appeal for reading. We have been inundated, but we will manage to carry on until the end of the school holidays. Then we hope the inundation will continue. We look forward to another year's effort on behalf of seafarers in the name of the Apostleship of the Sea and in your name. Our efforts in the past years are gradually bearing fruit and with your support and help our apostolate will widen in scope and in depth.

THE
"GIMMICKRY" IN FILMS One tends to wonder sometimes whether the so-called "new wave" of French films, with their substantial intellectual and "arty" following, has caused French film directors to consciously seek techniques which lean towards gimmickry so much that we suspect the producer's artistic integrity. Such a film is "It's My A Keyhole," a sort of Life." This has met with "Mondo Cane," with less of mixed receptions. It won a the savagery and a little Venice Film Festival award more humour than its and, thanks to sensational. model. Some fine camera work publicity, had a good season in Sydney.

STRONG WINDS STOP TURF TOPICS FASTER RUNNING By THE HAWK
Strong winds prevented many athletes from registering better times at Perry Lakes last Saturday. Rod McGhee continued in good form and finished a close second to Vic Biffen in the Al 220yds. sprint. Trevor Wilson was also second in his division and Ted Hussey won the A3 220 event. All three divisions of the C-Grade half-mile were run together and Lou Scott and Arthur Ward won the first two of these. Arthur, still recovering from a leg injury, ran extremely well to register the time of 2min. 2sec. Lou's time was 2min. 4sec. Jim Steffan finished strongly to take third place in the Al 220yds. hurdles event, Ted Hussey surprised by taking second place in the A2 division, while junior athlete Paul Fisher took second place in the Cl event. The strong headwind was disastrous for many hurdlers, who were thrown off balance and hit hurdles. Two competitors appeared recently In Y.C.W. uniforms in mile and threemile events and showed
that they were well in keeping with more recent Y.C.W. d istance performances. They were last and second last in both their events. These two athletes, who really appear to have more athletic ability than they have shown, must have become influenced by Western Australian hospitality. Both these boys are interstate visitors from Canberra and the club's best wishes go out to them. The Christmas social could hardly be called a resounding success. Six members arrived for this gala evening and the president had a very red face trying to explain things to some guests that he had been "talked into" inviting. More interest in the club's activities would be appreciated by the committee.
Fire Fighting Above And Below Commenting in the BBC General Overseas Service programme 'New Ideas' on the success of the British 'Snorkel' fire-fighting unit, Alan Murray said that it looked like becoming standard equipment in European and American cities, and it had already gone into service in Pakistan, Ceylon and Bermuda. Built on the same lines, and by the same firm, as the articulated booms widely used for all sorts of overhead jobs, which swing up and out from a turntable on a truck, the cage at the top, of the boom can be quickly manoeuvred to rescue people trapped in a burning building at anything up to 64 feet above ground level. It holds six adults, and a monitor, which enables the fireman directing the jet of water to choose the best vantage point and remain completely safe. UNDERGROUND TOO In the same programme Bill Myatt reported on a new device made by Dunlops for fighting underground fires. This is a huge bag, made of rubber and nylon enclosed in a terylene net, that holds twenty-one tons of water and withstands external pressures of up to 400 tons. Its purpose is to seal off a mine passage in
emergency to prevent the spread of toxic fumes and dangers from explosions. To seal off the affected part of the mine, the bag is first expanded with nitrogen. Then, while the nitrogen is being exhausted, the bag is filled with water. Should the seal be damaged by an explosion, the water it contains would help to douse any flames. These mine-sealing bags can be made in various shapes and sizes to fit the configuration of mine roadways.

The 1963 Railway Stakes, W.A.'s premier sprint race went to YENTON who gave a first class performance to win with almost a length to spare. Near the rear of the field in the early stages the winner was favoured with a nice passage along the rails when the leaders swung wide on the turn. YENTON, with his light weight, had the speed to take advantage of the opening and passing horse after horse was two lengths in front with half a furlong to go. While the field was closing in on him near the post he was in no danger of defeat. The win gave trainer Neil Hodgson and rider Gordon Dickinson, both young men; their biggest successes on the turf.
ONE TO FOLLOW Those who did not support COPPER SON when he won the '7.1-furlong Advance Handicap last Wednesday could do more than follow this promising colt from now on, as more wins are in store for him. He was allowed to drop out in the early stages, but once heads were turned for home, he quickly pounced on the leaders and bounded away in a style seldom seen in this class of race. As the dam of this horse was a good staying mare, a bit of distance should not trouble him a little later on. PONY LADY flew home to run third, but again showed that she can't go the early pace.

OUR BEST Y OUNGSTER
Winning the Karrakatta Plate of 5 fur. brought LITTLE RODERICK'S score to four wins from as many starts. This undefeated extra good colt will now be given a well earned spell. CAROL'S CHOICE in Treen's hands ran a much better race finishing on to run second and easily beating the rest of the field. There will be a mad rush to support her the first time she is stepped out over 6 fur. • NOT AT TOP YET A division of the Sir. J. Mitchell Hcp. over 10i fur. proved a glass of milk for the improving JARRADALE who won by six lengths and in fact never looked like losing the race. This genuine stayer could not help winning more races. Those behind the winner merely made up the numbers.
The dismal failure of NOR VAL BOY who had ruled as favourite for the last few weeks could suggest that this colt has had his share of racing for the time being. WILL
LIKELY YOUNG STAYER
After running a good race in the Derby last week RAC'S IMAGE showed himself to be a cut above those opposed to him in the 104 fur. Rep. 1 by winning the race with ease. Among the unimpressive lot behind him was ASSYRIAN who registered yet another failure. What a great horse he is— for the bookmakers.
Following several stylish wins as a 2-y.o. YENTON (now five) broke down and it was not until recently when he won a couple of races that he rewarded his young mentor for his ability and patience. In running second, CIVVYSON the best backed horse in the race gave a good showing but found the winner just too good on the day. NINTOKU rattled home to run third which suggests that, had the Derby been chosen as his mission he would have taken no end of beating in that race. It will be surprising if this colt does not turn out to be a tip-top 4-yo. PEEDONG did best of the unplaced division and is now ripe to win a race or two.

After several good bets had been laid against him he drifted several points late in betting. This is unlikely to happen next time as he is a good cut of a young horse and is sure to be improved by the run. MARKAB came from a long way back to run third and could do better over a longer journey.

Off The Record By H. T. GOLLOP
S
INCE the centenary of his birth in 1960, there has been something of a mild revival of Mahler, t h e commemorative performances of his works winning him new audiences. He is an intensely subjective composer and sometimes communes with himself at irritating length; he is impossible to understand unless you know something of his life because his music is always an expression of the problems of his life. He was of Jewish stock and had a very unhappy childhood; p r e occupation with religious problems led him to become a Catholic.
The score is a very rich one and the performance by the Philharmonia is superb. The singers are Hilde Roessl - Majdan, Elizabeth Schwarzkopf and the Philharmonia Chorus. The recording is a delight the instrumental detail glowing with colour and the only fault is a falling off towards the label on Side 3. This is a big issue in every sense. * "SAIL AWAY:" Original Broadway Cast. Capitol, 52/6. Original London Cast. H.M.V., 52/6.

RECORD
'VE heard all this before," sings one character in this Noel Coward musical, "I can't stand any more." There were moments when I had very much the same feelings; a good deal of this is the mechanical, old-fashioned type of musical comedy of the last generation. What does make either set very rewarding is the satirising of tourists and tourism in general and a cruise ship in particular. "Useless, useful phrases," for example, is one of the funniest songs that I've heard in years. It consists merely of extracts from a conversation manual, delivered devastatingly by Elaine Stritch, who is by far the best performer and heads both the Broadway and London casts. The musical played first in America, then in London. Both sets are almost identical, but I thought that the London performance was a good deal more polished. A slick mixture of hok.um and sophistication.

with De Strave
JOHN BROOME, director the English musical, of "Stop the World — I Want to Get Off" flew from London to New York to engage JACKIE WARNER and EVELYN PAGE, from the New York theatre, for its Australian tour which opens at the Melbourne Tivoli in early February. JACKIE WARNER has appeared in many Broadway shows including last year's successful revival of "Anything Goes." Miss Page is giving up the American National tour of this season's "Little Me" to enable her to make the Australian tour. Drama will play a large role in the Universities Catholic Federation of Australia Convention. REV. BROTHER MANION is to lecture on "Is a Christian Drama Possible." This will be followed by a forum and panel discussion on drama. ANNE BUFtNETT is producing Christopher Fry's drama "Phoenix Too Frequent" for the convention and "The Farce of Devil's Bridge" is being produced
by Rev. Brother McAppian of Aquinas College. The Playhouse has acquired two English stars for Edgar Metcalfe's production of "The Devils" for the Festival of Perth. They are JUDY WILSON and JAMES BEATTIE. Mr. Beattie will take over the role of associate producer from PETER COLLINGWOOD. Both artists will remain in Perth under contract to the Playhouse. At present the Playhouse has no Australian actors under contract and one is inclined to feel that this is not being fair on our own artists. On the other hand it could be assumed that we would not be able to obtain overseas artists unless they could first be assured of steady employment.
As with the first part, there is a Teacher's Guide for the book. The cover of the Catholic Catechism Book Two is strong and durable, artistic and attractive, as befits the purpose of the book; to cooperate with the Divine grace so that adolescent Australian youth may "grow to what St. Paul calls "perfect manhood" in Christ and strong members of His Church, His witnesses in our own Australia." The Catechism is divided into four Sections. The first —"I am the Truth" — is concerned with God's plan for man's salvation and the working out of that plan from the beginning to the First Pentecost, the Birthday of the Church. Part 2 — "I am the Life" — deals with the life of grace, which comes to man through the Living Church, the Body of Christ of which we are the members. This section. after suitable introductory matter, treats, therefore, of the Mass, which is the Source, and of the Sacraments which are the Channels through which the Divine grace comes. Part 3 — "I am the Way" — is devoted to the presentation of the moral law; t o God's Law as it comes to us through the Natural Law which is known to all men, and to God's Law as we know it thiough the Commandments. But the approach is a posithre one— not just a series of "don'ts" — it is based on love and it means living a Christ -like Life, living in union with God. Part 4 — "Final Glory" — is the teaching of the Church on the Last Things; on Death, Hell, Heaven, Purgatory, the Last Day and the Fulfilment of God's plan of salvation. It is the teaching of the triumph of God and the triumph of man when united to God. It does not minimise the tremendous importance of these things, the absoluteness of man's free and final choice; but
neither does it minimise the goodness and mercy of God and the certainty of salvation for those who ally themselves with God and use the means of salvation. In other words, it is directed to the courage and humility of youth, not to those vague, formless fears and apprehensions which have their roots in ignorance. -PERFECT MANHOOD I N CHRIST" In every chapter of the Catechism, Prayer. Sacred Scripture and the Liturgy are properly and appropriately employed in achieving the ultimate purpose of the book — "perfect manhood in Christ." The Teacher's Book may be said to be, in one sense, part. of the Catechism. It is designed, of course, to aid those who have the duty and privilege of teaching the Catechism. It manifests the same characteristics as the Catechism itself, the careful planning and design, the fine workmanship necessary for achieving the purpose of the book as a whole. The system and value of both the Catechism and the Teacher's Book may be summarised in a few words: They proclaim and do not fail to follow the method of teaching which Christ Himself employed — "combining intensity of conviction with skilful and controlled use of the best teaching methods." The Catholic Catechism Book Two is issued and prescribed for use in the lower secondary grades of Catholic Schools in Australia by the Australian Hierarchy. By direction of the Bishops, Catholic Catechism Book Two and the Teacher's Book are to be sold for not more than 7/6d. and 18/6d, respectively, including post or freight charges. Much painstaking and able work and co-operation have gone into the making of Catechism and Teacher's Book; much sacrifice, humility and prayer, too, one feels. But all this will not be wasted. By these means God will achieve in Austra-
The University Dramatic Society has struck on a novel idea to attract audiences to their forthcoming revue. They hope to conduct "Sunper Performances" which would follow the normal 8.15 p.m. shows. Supper would be available in The Dolphin foyer and the usherettes would be dressed in nightgowns of the Victorit.4 era. The gift of American producers for making the best musicals anywhere in the world has never been seriously challenged, but recently they have been playing it even safer by dusting off tried and true hits of by-gone days. Among them are "Here's Love" a version of the 1947 movie "Miracle on 34th Street" with JANIS PAIGE and CRAkG STEVENS, Noel Coward is scheduled to direct BEATRICE LILLIE as Madame Arcati in "High Spirits," an adaption of his own "Blithe Spirit." Others are "The Girl Who Came to Supper," "Golden "The and Boy" Rain Maker."

RADIO REPLIES By the Rev. Dr. Rumble M.S.C.
BE KILLED RATHER THAN KILL IN WAR R.T. NEW SOUTH WALES, asks: What would be the position of a soldier if, during a war, confronted with an enemy, he dropped his gun because he loved his neighbour and . was shot by that enemy? R.: He'd be dead, if the enemy aimed straight and shot to kill. But you are concerned with the morality of his conduct, and you over-simplify the case. We have to love our enemies, but not their enmity; and we are obhged as far as we are able to prevent them from doing all the harm they are bent on doing. Moreover, love of one's neighbours includes all our fellow human beings, and there is a priority in the order and degree of love we should have for them. If you were a married man with a wife and several children and an armed man came to your door determined to shoot you and your wife and children, your wife and children would have a higher claim on your "love of your neighbour" than he would; and if you were armed and could shoot him before he shot you and them, and there were no other way of preventing his aggression than by doing so, your duty would be to protect your wife and children, and yourself as their breadwinner. We can apply that analogy to our nation as our 9wn family among the many national groups into which the human race is divided. Patriotism is a natural virtue and can be a Christian virtue. And it imposes on a soldier engaged in a just war of self-defence an obligation not to throw away the lives of his fellow sold-
iers, or even his own' life in favour of enemy forces used by a hostile aggressor-nation. IS IT MARTYRDOM? Q.: Would not the conduct of such a man be the act of a martyr?
R.: In itself, no. It would be the act of a traitor rather than a martyr. The soldier who, when his country is fighting for its, survival against unjust aggression, does his utmost in its defenc'e and is killed in doing so can be regarded as a Christian martyr if he is actuated by Christian motives such as a love of justice and a sense of duty to God as well as to his country. But the case you suggest was dealt with as early as 314 A.D. by the Council of Arles which, to show that the profession of Christianity cannot be made an excuse for evading the duties of citizenship, decreed excommunication against those who would throw down their arms in time of war. E ARLY CHRISTIAN A TTITUDE Q.: The early Christians did this.
R.: Some misguided individuals among them must have done so, or the Council of Arles would not have felt called upon to condemn such conduct. But it was certainly not the commonly-accepted Christian practice.
There is a great deal of misunderstanding in this matter. Recorded objections by Christians to military service during the first three centuries were based on the ground that the pagan State compelled soldiers to engage in pagan worship, offering sacrifice to the gods. Tertullian 160-220 A.D.) in his "De Corona" warns Christians of their duty to refuse this. But in his "Apologia," addressed to the Roman Prefects, he defends Christians against charges of disloyalty, segregation and want of a spirit of true citizenship. "Side by side with yourselves," he wrote, "we Christians are sailors and soldiers, farmers and fellow businessmen in civic life." W OULD GOD REWARD H IM? Q.: Would not God reward such a man for sacrificing his own life in such
away? R.: The man in reality would be sacrificing the cause of his country by depriving it of the services he could and should render it. Granted that such a man's action were not dictated by a fanatical obstinacy of judgment and selfwill, but that he died for what he wrongly thought to

be a Christian principle, God would reward him for his mistaken self-sacrifice if he were inculpably ignorant of his actual duty. Father Henry Davis, S.J., one of England's foremost moral theologians writes in his booklet "War and Pacifism": "If a State is, as a fact, unjustly attacked and calls upon its citizens to defend it, the pacifist attitude may not be adopted by any Catholic . . . since the rational presumption is, unless the contrary is quite evident, that the State has come to its decision on just and sufficient grounds." He adds that a priest hearing confessions must regard a Catholic pacifist as a penitent with an erroneous conscience; entitled to sympathy, yes; but error is error anti, if asked, the confessor must declare conscientious objection to be wrong and sinful. Here, once more, we can recall Pope Pius XII's declaration in his 1956 Christmas Discourse on peace and war that if a legitimate government decides on effective self-defence in ways it considers necessary, "a Catholic citizen cannot invoke his own conscience in order to refuse to serve and fulfil those duties the law imposes."
heard either of the book or of the author. His name suggests that he is either Spanish or Portuguese; his statements indicate that he is an expriest. But not one of the quotations you send provides the slightest reason for his having become a Protestant, whatever may be the type of Protestantism t hat he has embraced. All of them are attacks upon the Catholic Church to justify his having left it. Of themselves—even if he really believed in what he writes—these provide no more reason for becoming a Protestant than for becoming a Hindu or a Buddhist or a Moslem. Monsignor Ronald Knox says that when, as a young Anglican clergyman, he first visited Father Martindale, S.J., and t old him he had doubts about the Church of England, Father Martindale replied: "Young man, dissatisfaction with Anglicanism is no reason for becoming a Catholic." It may be that elsewhere in his book your Luis Padrosa does give some positive reasons for becoming a Protestant and for choosing the particular form of Protestantism he did. But apparently your interest is only in what he has to say against the Catholic Church. None of it, however, is really deserving of serious consideration. INCREDIBLE CONFUSION Q.: Luis Padrosa writes, p.36: 'When Jesus Christ said the forces of hell would not prevail against ( His Church). He referred to the preservation or continuation of the
Church.
He never meant
to say there would not be sins of all kinds in His Church . . . No: Jesus Christ did not give any privilege of infallibility t o His Church)." R.: It is incredible that anyone who has ever been a priest could write a sentence like that, unless he is suffering from a complete loss of memory where ordinary Catholic theology is concerned. For Catholic theology distinguishes clearly between impeccability and infallibility. The Catholic Church has never held that impeccability or inability to fall into personal sins has been granted to any members of the Church. The Catholic Church is well aware of Our Lord's prediction: "It must needs be that scandals will come, but woe to him through whom they come"; also that Our likened His Lord Church to a net holding good and bad fish. Always there will be bad fish or sinners in the Church. But that has nothing to do with the infallibility of the Church or inability to err officially in her teachings where any essential principles of the Christian religion as given to the world by -Christ and the Apostles are concerned.
Padrosa's own admission that Christ's promise referred to the preservation of His Church is an admission that Christ promised infallibility to His Church: for without infallibility the Church could' fall into error and there would be no guarantee of its presevation at all! The impeccability of the members of the Church, however, is an entirely different matter. It is not claimed that all members of the Church are impeccable or unable to sin; nor are the personal sins of Catholics any argument against the infallibility of the Catholic teaching capacity. We'll go on from there next time.
Forbidden Books For Catholics "CATHOLIC," HURSTVILLE, asks: As regards the laws of the Catholic Church concerning literature, forbidding the reading of works listed in the "Index of Prohibited Books," would the reading of books ordinarily likely to weaken the spirit of Catholic discipline be in general forbidden. R.: 1 have said in previous sessions that more important in practice than the actual "Index of Prohibited Books" which lists a limited number of special works containing false teachings, are the general rules forbiddinL certain classes of books. These can be reduced roughly to all books published which are expressly opposed to Catholic teachings in matters of faith or morals. For example, no book br a non-Catholic writer which expressly deals with religion is permissible reading for a Catholic unless he has good reason beforehand for believing that it contains nothing contrary to the Catholic religion. Books on religious subjects such as those by the Anglican writer C. S. Lewis, or such as "The Song of Bernadette" by the Jewish writer Franz Werfel, are generally acknowledged by Catholic authorities as quite acceptable. But books known to be written by sceptics and unbelievers which advocate atheism, materialism and irreligion denying the existence cf God or that Holy Scripture is the inspired word of God; or books written by non-Catholics for the specific purpose of attacking Catholic teachings, or books which every norChristian judgment mal would deem immoral and obscene — these are prohibited for all Catholics. Apart from this absolute prohibition, any given Catholic who found that a particular book or type of book tended to undermine his own personal spirit of loyalty to the teachings of the Church or to her disciplinary or moral laws would be obliged in conscience to desist from such reading. BOOKS

THE
Q.: Would books portraying corruption or decadence in Church government or a dministration be forbidden?
R.: Not if such books were written as objective history, trying to give a balanced account of the Church, abuses due to human frailty or perversity being recorded as it were incidentally and as abuses. But such books, if written by declared enemies of the Church with the obvious purpose of defaming the Church, suppressing or belittling all that was felt to be to her credit, and emphasising all that was thought to be to her discredit, would be forbidden reading for Caolics. The aim of such books would clearly be to undermine their faith in their re-

ligiun and loyalty to its precepts. POSSIBILITY OF D ISPENSATIONS Q.: Can individual or general dispensations be obtained by Catholics to read prohibited books? If so. how?
R.: No permission can be granted, even by the Pope himself, to read utterly obscene books. But apart from what any normal person would rank as pornographic literature, Bishops have authority to grant permission to individuals for the reading of prohibited books, granted a just reason such as necessity for specialised work. Thus teachers of professors might need to consult prohibited books in connection with subjects with which they have to deal: or scholars might find prohibited books required reading for advanced studies; or an author might feel this necessary for the purposes of a book he intends writing; or a librarian's duties could demand the scrutiny of various books, some of which according to Catholic standards would have to be classified as forbidden. Where such reasonable grounds exist, dispensations can readily be obtained either by direct application in writing to one's Bishop, or through one's parish priest. With that, I have covered all your questions — I hope sufficiently clearly.
