Missions Giving Increases Again FATHER W. FOLEY, DIRECTOR OF THE PONTIFICAL MISSION AID SOCIETIES, H A S ANA THAT NOUNCED HAS 30,069 £ OF OTAL T BEEN CONTRIBUTED TO THE MISSION SOCIETIES BY CATHOLICS OF THE ARCHDIOCESE DURING THE LAST 12 MONTHS. This was an increase of £ 3,724 on the previous year. He expressed his personal thanks to the people whose generosity helped achieve this very successful result. Father Foley said: "There is reason for great hope for the Church in Perth when each year brings t angible proof of growing dedication to Christ and His work in the world. The c ompelling need so many have felt in sharing the blessings of God with others, in a spirit of faith and charity, is an outgiving apostolic spirit in a world that tries to forget God."
Co-operation In publishing t hese figures he made clear that the results were due to the zealous co-operation of the priests in the parishes and the religious Sisters and Brothers in the schools, who by their example have inspired young their charges with concern for others not so favoured. Despite the great improvement in recent years, much still remains to be done. Father Foley remarked that many Catholics for some reason or other failed to renew their subscriptions during 1963. Last year nearly 765 out of 936 requests for special help could be granted, and even then only an average of 31.61 per cent of the desired amount could be given. "There are millions of men," he said, "who must be reached. They need the help of Christ through His
missionaries for their churches, schools, hospitals and leprosaria, etc. Your continued good faith and unending charity are the only reservoir Christ has on earth to care for His poor." • See PAGE 12

MAASIN, Philppines: An altar boy here has been acquitted of slaying a drunken man who recently attacked the parish priest during Benediction. Father Manuel Gomez was performing Benediction when a drunken man emerged from the crowd and swung at the priest with a knife. The altar boy threw the censer at the attacker's arm and grappled for possession of the knife. The drunken man was killed in the scuffle. In a 13-page decision. the court upheld the constitutional right of religious worship and warned all to respect the Church, its ministers and ceremonies.

Extension Of Time VATICAN CITY. — The Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office has revised its ruling that priests planning to celebrate Mass must calculate the period of the Eucharistic fast from the beginning of the Mass. A new decision now permits the period to be calculated in reference to the moment of the priest's Communion. The decision was contained in a Holy Office decree dated January 10. Until the decree, under the provisions of the apostolic constitution Christus Dominus of 1953 and the motu proprio Sacram Communionem of 1957. priests had to calculate the threehour abstention from ordinary food and alcoholic drinks from the beginning of Mass. According to Canon 247 of the Code of Canon Law, the Holy Office exclusively is competent in all matters that relate to the Eucharistic fast for priests. ov••••••e.sse,•••••••••••••0•04

CAUSE OF FRICTION "Teenager Talks On NOW REMOVED Bishop Fulton Sheen . • •
VATICAN CITY.—The Holy See has done away with the titular Latin Rite patriarchates of Constantinople, Alexandria and Antioch— long considered an insult by the Orthodox and other Eastern Churches. The action was revealed in the 1964 edition of the Vatican year book, the Annuario Pontificio, whose first copy was presented to Pope Paul VI on January 11. The year book, which traditionally lists the names and holders of every juristhe Catholic diction of the throughout Church world, together with the names of prelates given titular honours by the Holy See, no longer lists the Latin patriarchates of the three ancient cities. The only Latin patriarchate remaining in the Middle East is that of Jerusalem. All three of the Latin Rite patriarchates now dropped had been vacant for a decade or more, the last three Popes choosing not to fill them. They stemmed from the time of the Crusades. After the Latin Christians Constantinople plundered in 1204 and set up their own short-lived kingdom there, Pope Innocent III appointed a Latin Rite Venetian as Patriarch of Constantinople. Historians regard this act as putting the final touch on the schism which had split the Sees of Rome and Constantinople in 1054. The Orthodox considered the appointment of Latin patriarchs to the ancient Eastern Sees presumptuous and arrogant. AFTER CRUSADES After the period of the Crusades, the Latin patriarchates of Constantinople, Alexandria and Antioch became titular honours. The Latin Patriarchs virtually always lived in Italy, and had no jurisdicition. But they had precedence over archbishops and bishops. The last Latin Patriarch of Constantinople was a Milanese, Antonio Rossi, who was given the title by Pope Pius XI in 1927. The title was not conferred again after his death in 1948. Latin Patriarch Roberto Vicentini of Antioch died in 1953 after holding the title for 28 years, and -that title has not been renewed. Pope Pius XII did name a Latin Patriarch of Alexandria in 1951 — Patriarch Luca Pasetto, O.F.M. Cap.—but left the title unused after the prelate's death in January of 1954. 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

Roberto President Chiari of Panama led some 5.000 people in an orderly procession here, funeral which lasted for 4 hours. Bishop McGrath had stated earlier: "A group of irresponsible people in the Canal Zone, trampling over Panamanian rights and violating the orders of their own authorities, have unleashed a cataclysm of violence, bringing death to some and wounding others."

manded an end to the treaty. The situation eased when inter-American peacemakers agreed on a five-man mixed commission to restore peace in the area and to maintain contact between the Panamanian and the U.S. governments. The U.S., Panama and the OAS are represented on the commission. The violence flared when U.S. students at Balboa High School insisted that the U.S. flag be flown alone at the school. In 1960 former President Eisenhower ordered that the Panamanian flag be flown along with the U.S. flag in the zone to show that Panama has titular sovereignty in the zone although the U.S. has the right to use the zone in perpetuity. TWO OR NONE The government had put out an order stating that in the case of schools which did not have two flagpoles, no flags were to be flown at all. But despite this, American high school students ran up the American flag. On January 9 some Panamanian students invaded the zone and tried to hoist their flag at Balboa High School. Scuffles followed between
the Panamanian and American students. Canal Zone police tried to break up the disorders and move the Panamanian students from the Canal Zone. The rioting started later after the Panamanian students charged that their nation's flag had been violated. SNIPERS When the situation became more serious, the U.S. Army was called in to maintain order. Fighting broke out between U.S. soldiers and Panamanians when snipers allegedly fired on the soldiers. Three U.S. soldiers were slain that night and 34 were wounded. Panama broke off diplomatic relations with the U.S., charging "justifiable aggression" by U.S. forces against Panamanians. On January 10 state of mourning was declared throughout Panama and flags flew at half mast. President Chiari has asked that the U.S. agree to a revision of the 1903 Canal Zone territory and demand. an increased share of canal revenues. He has also reiterated Panama's claim to sovereignty over the Canal Zone treaty to give Panama ed that the canal be given to Panama or placed in the hands of an international agency.

The first task on the subcommission's agenda is to draft a convention on the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination. This is the result of a decision of the last U.N. General Assembly session which concluded on December 16 and adopted, after long discussion, a formal declaration on this subject. The declaration outlines, in 11 articles, the freedom from racial bias that should obtain in the exercise of civil rights, in housing, employment, public facilities, education, civil service and public office and in the practice of religion. It is now the task of the sub-commission to work these principles into the form of a treaty, which will then be reviewed by the U.N. Human Rights Commission and the Economic and Social Council before it is finally submitted to the 1964 session of the General A ssembly. RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE Next the sub-commission must draft the text of a declaration and a convention on the elimination of all forms of _religious intolerance. It dealt with this
item only briefly last year, passing it on to the Human Rights Commission with the suggestion that the draft set of principles already before it could be the basis for both. This was the set of principles geared to guarantee freedom in the practice of one's religion which had been prepared under the aegis of the sub-commission by Arcot Krishnaswami of India. It has been on the agenda of the Human Rights Commission for three years. In all U.N. bodies concerned with the subject, however, the discussion of racial discrimination has taken the greater part of the time. Hence the declaration and convention on eliminating religious intolerance are back on the agenda of the subcommission. Two studies will also be reviewed at this session. One is a study of discrimination suffered by persons born out of wedlock. It has been prepared by Voitto Saario of Finland. Another is a preparatory outline for a study on equality in the administration of justice. This study has been assigned to Abu Rannat of the Sudan.

Real Beginning Of Reform In Church
[The author of the following article, the first of a series on the sweeping liturgical reform provided for by the ecumenical council, serves as one of the council's official advisers on liturgical matters. A priest of the Boston archdiocese and a professor of canon law at the Catholic University of America, Washington, he is the immediate past president of the North American Liturgical Conference.]
BY ENACTING THE SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL'S FIRST DOCUMENT, THE CONSTITUTION ON WORSHIP OR LITURGY, POPE PAUL VI AND THE OTHER BISHOPS MADE TO RENEW THE CONCRETE POPE JOHN'S GOAL IN SUMMONING THE COUNCIL CHURCH, TO BRING THE CHURCH'S WAYS UP TO DATE. The liturgical constitution will go into effect for the whole Church on the first Sunday of Lent, February 16. The waiting period is to enable clergy and f aithful to become acquainted with the c ouncil's statement. This lengthy document— it runs to more than 16,000 words — is the real beginning of reform within the Church. It affects the single occasion when Catholics come together every week, the Sunday morning Mass. It confronts what has been called the "Sunday morning crisis" — congregations that are uninvolved or indifferent, rites that are routine or unintelligible.
HISTORICAL P ARALLEL Four hundred years to the day after the 1563 closing of the Council of Trent, Pope Paul and the fathers of the present council decreed and issued this new constitution. The historical parallel goes deeper. On December 4, 1563, the bishops at Trent entrusted t o the Pope the task of re-

vising the official missal — and thus revising the Mass text and rites. On December 4, 1963, a similar but much broader revision was initiated, this time with careful directives and explanations of the reasons for the renewal. The constitution spells out clearly the mind of the Church concerning the renewal of her public worship. But the practically minded have an immediate question about the constitution's effects: How soon can we expect the Mass texts to be in English? How soon can we expect the revision of the sacramental rites? Part of the answer — the time element — involves risky speculation. A better answer is to describe the council's legislation on the liturgy under four rough headings: PRIESTLY ACTION (1) Doctrinal. Each of the seven chapters of - the constitution on worship has an important doctrinal introduction. In the first chapter, for example, there is a fundamental section on the nature of public worship and its significance in the Church's whole life. The council explains that the liturgy continues Christ's priestly action in all the members of the Church, how Christ acts in every liturgical celebration, that "the liturgy is the summit toward which the activity of the Church is directed; at the same time it is the fount from which all her power flows." The faithful, says the council, "must be convinced that the pre-eminent manifestation of the Church consists in the full active participation of all God's holy people in these liturgical celebrations, especially in the same Eucharist, in a single prayer, at one altar. at which there presides the bishop surrounded by his college of priests and by his ministers." In similar language the sacraments, the daily prayer or office, and the Church year are explained. NO WAIT All this, amounting in text t o perhaps one-third of the document, should become the ordinary teaching of the Church without delay. There is no "waiting period" until it becomes true or goes into effect. Rather it sums up and crystallises Catholic doctrine on sacred worship; it should be the starting point for priests and teachers in their explanation of the Church as a worshipping community. (2) Disciplinary. Under this heading come the norms which will be effective on February 16. They demand the instruction of the people and their full participation in the liturgy now, irrespective of future changes or the introduction of the vernacular language into worship; they give directions for: • Revised seminary training, so flat both studies and spiritual life will centre about the mystery of Christ the Lord celebrated in the liturgy: • For the training of priests already in the ministry;
• For the work of diocesan liturgical commissions. In some cases, the regulations are specific, insisting for example on the preaching of sermons at all Sunday and holyday Masses when the people are present, commending preaching at Masses on other days. etc. IMMEDIATE While the natural tendency is to look ahead to changes and reforms, the task of liturgical education and liturgical participation is immediate, and much of the constitution from the council deals with such promotion, because "Mother desires Church earnestly that all the faithful should be led to that full, conscious, and active participation in liturgical celebrations which is demanded by the very nature of the liturgy." ( 3) Episcopal. Much ha, been written about the authority of the groups of bishops in the different regions, countries, or territories of the world. The liturgy constitution changes the present rule' which reserves the regulation of public worship rather strictly to the Holy See. The most important instance of this affects the use of the mother tongues in the liturgy. Such concessions have been made by the council itself, but only on condition that the bodies of bishops. acting collectively, take advantage of the concession for their respective territory. Thus these provisions of the constitution go into effect, not on February 16. but when .the bishops take action. (4) Papal. The final category comprises the council's mandate directed not to the Church at large but to a commission which will be set up by the Pope to revise the missal, breviary, ritual, etc. The council has decided the principles and the chief points; the implementation must wait until details are worked out. Here conjecture is almost useless. It is easy to predict the kinds of changes in the rite of Mass or in the sacramental services: these are clearly indicated in the constitution or in the writings of experts. What is uncertain is the length of time needed: perhaps only weeks or months for broad changes, certainly several years of the complete revision of the service books of the liturgy. The whole picture of the council's liturgical renewal may be quickly summed up. Its doctrine on worship should and studied be
preached now. Its discipline takes effect on February 16, above all in the active participation of the people. Two aspects of the constitution must await further action: the use of the vernacular depends on the approval to be given by the body of bishops; the ritual reform depends on precise decisions to be made by authority of the Pope. In quantity and quality the norms of the constitution on liturgical instruction and activity are even more important than the reform. They are at the root of all efforts to renew the Church's spirit.

Special Role In "Baptising" Ireland may have a special role to play in "baptising" the technological civilisation of the modern world, A rchbishop William Conway of Armagh said in Dublin.
The primate of All Ireland, said the Church today "is meeting what is really a new situation, the civilisation of the television screen"; Telstar, an electronic civilisation as yet largely materialistic. It hasn't yet been baptised." One of the _tasks of the ecumenical council, Archbishop Conway said, is to bring the Church up to date so that it can "more easily penetrate the contemporary world with her message. He said Ireland may have a "special part" in Christianising technological civilisation because of its position as a Catholic nation to which the new technology has come relatively late.

message from Pope Paul VI from the Holy Land. He also said that "there is discrimination" against the Church in Poland. He declared that the "destruction and violation of the conscience of human beings continues through administrative means." In a joint statement drawn up last August, the Polish Bishops asserted that thousands of functionaries of the communist regime have the sole task of harassing the Church. . Meanwhile, reports state, the government has closed parish chapels in Warsaw, Cracow, Opole, Ludwikowo and Lipiny. Force was used to close the chapel in Lipiny against the resistance of parishioners. When the Poznan archdiocese, in which Lipiny and Ludwikowo are located, protested against the closings, Church authorities were told that the chapels had no right to stay open because they were not listed in the archdiocesan yearbook. But it was government censors reports say, who refused to allow the listing of the chapels when the yearbook was published.
Committee To Study Labour Code Christian Central The Trade Union of Ecuador has asked that representatives of labour be included on a committee studying reform of the labour code.
The committee, appointed by the government's Military Council, is made up of educators, and of representatives of the Supreme Court of Justice and of the Ministry for Social Security and Labour. The central union said reformation of the labour code should include more definite provisions on the right to strike, on stability in employment, on trade union freedom and on collective bargaining.
"At the very least during an experimental period of indefinite duration there will be safety in numbers," they said. -We do not want to be tied forever to an unsatisfactory partner wedded in haste." This point was made by Fathers Conrad Pepler, 0.P., and Edmund Hill, 0.P., of Hawkesyard Priory, Rugeley, in a letter to the Tablet, national Catholic weekly. They said the liturgy constitution adopted by; the ecumenical council requires of translations for use in the liturgy only that they be "authorised" and does not limit the number of authorised translations to one per language.

Sister Michael graduated with honours as a Bachelor of Arts in 1961, also gaining a Diploma in Education. She has since been teaching at St. Joseph's. There is already another nun on the tutorial staff at A rmidale University. She is Sister Mary John, a Dominican from Tamworth, who is attached to the English Department. Sister Michael said she would take up her new post in February and would probably tutor in Latin, Roman History and Literature.
Priests of the Bathurst Diocese in New South Wales may wear an open-neck white or off-white shirt instead of the Roman collar during the summer months. Bishop A. R. E. Thomas, who was only recently enthroned at Bathurst, announced this in a statement read at Masses in the diocese last month.
Priests must, however, wear two gold crosses on the shirt. The dress is optional and it may be worn throughout the diocese from November 1 to April 30. The extremely hot weather in some parts of the diocese prompted the decision by Bishop Thomas. The customary black trousers will be worn with the shirt, which may be complemented with a white jacket.

Supreme Court Battle Pending Obscenity Vs. Censorship
WASHINGTON: The U.S. Supreme Court, in an appeal raising big questions in the controversy over obscenity and censorship, has once again been asked to decide wheher "Tropic of Cancer" is obscene.
The new case has been brought before the high court by Grove Press, New York publishers of the controversial novel by Henry Miller. Grove is challenging a Florida District Court of Appeal ruling which, last September 17, upheld a lower court's ban on the book in the Miami, Florida, area. The Supreme Court meanwhile also set the stage for a potential major ruling on obscenity and censorship in two other cases. It accomplished this by ordering that a Kansas case involving allegedy obscene books be argued immediately after an Ohio case centering on an allegedly obscene movie'. Under the court's present timetable, the arguments are to be heard during the week of March 23. In the Kansas case, Harold and Robert Thompson and their P-K News Service, of Junction City, Kansas, are challenging a court order directing that all copies of 31 different books be destroyed. In the Ohio case, Nico Jacobellis is seeking reversal of his conviction on obscenity charges for exhibiting the French movie "The Lovers" at a Cleveland movie theatre where he was
Jacobellis was manager. fined 2,500 dollars. Court observers believe that the high court, in ordering that the two cases be argued together, may envisage a far-reaching ruling on obsecenity and free speech. Grove Press, in its appeal from the Florida ban on "Tropic of Cancer," raises some of the major issues on which the obscenity versus censorship controversy has focused in recent years. Among them are these: Whether a book of "literary, artistic or other social importance" is automatically protected against suppression as obscene;
Whether the reach 'of obsecenity laws is in fact limited to so-called "hardcore pornography:" Whether national or local "community st an dards" are to be employed to settle the issue of a work's obscenity.
Two Versions "Tropic of Cancer" has been held obscene by courts in Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Florida, and not obin Massachusetts, scene Wisconsin, Ilinois and California. One of the most controversial books of modern times, "Tropic of Cancer" was originally published
abroad and for many years was not legally obtainable in the United States. Only last December the Supreme Court disposed of two other cases involving the book. In one, the high court let stand a decision of the California Supreme Court that the book is not obscene. The State court had suggested that only "hard-core pornography" is subject to legal proscription. In the other, the Supreme Court sent back to a lower court for reconsideration the case of a Los Angeles bookseller who had drawn a 30-day gaol term for selling "Tropic." In doing so, it cited the State Supreme Court's ruling in the first case. In neither case did the high court itself comment directly on the question of the book's obscenity or nonobscenity.

Teachers Want Help Against Attacks On Christian Morals
BOURNEMOUTH, England.—The Catholic Teachers of England and Wales at their annual conference here called for a national stand by all professional people against the increasing attacks on Christian morals in Britain.
They said in a resolution these attacks came from public platforms, in literature and by mass media. they urged the Minister of Edward Sir Education, Boyle, to join them and for the government to use its power to bring about an improvement in this matter. "Revelations of vice in ( AUST.) PTY. LTD. high quarters" have severely handicapped the efforts of ( FORMERLY W.A.

SECOND WEEK
"If the government wants a people with a strong sense of moral responsibility they must give a firm, positive lead." TWO RESOLUTIONS The conference passed t wo other resolutions. The first asked their executive—the council of the Catholic Teachers' Federation of England and Wales—to advise the Education Minister that when considering proposed school building programmes he should take note of the steady rise of the Catholic proportion of the child population and make adequate provision
for them in Catholic schools. The federation also "viewed with alarm the numb:r of Catholic school buildings not up to the required standard, deplored the adverse publicity and called on the Minister to speed up procedure which unduly delays modernisation schemes submitted by school managers." CONTRAST A third resolution recognised that in some areas the State schools are much more modern and better equipped than neighbouring Catholic schools. This is a matter generally of money. Catholic often have to build their own primary schools out of their own pockets before the State will take over the running costs. Even for the big expensive secondary schools Catholics have to find 25 per cent of the building costs and in some cases costs of modernisation and extension.
NOW THE FLASHING BOBBY
Bishop, Bonzes Appeal To Stop "Incidents" SAIGON: A sturdy 75year-old missionary bishop appealed to Catholics and Buddhists in a troubled area of Binh Tuy province to forgive, forget and help each other. Bishop Marcel Piquet of Paris Nhatrang, veteran missionary, and three Buddhists bonzes from Saigon flew to the district where incidents of Dec. 30 and Jan. 1 resulted in four deaths and the burning of three houses. Lieut. Col. Nguyen Cao, government commissiorier for new rural life, accompanied the CatholicBuddhist delegation and presided at a meeting in Vo Dat village schoolhouse. NOT RELIGIOUS On behalf of the government which had arranged the visit the Colonel condemned those responsible for incidents which he said were He not religious conflicts. called for quick action to from agitation prevent spreading. Bishop Piquet and Superior Bonze Thich Huyen Minh appealed to village leaders and people to live in peace and not play into the hands of the communist Vietcong by quarrels. Bishops, bonzes, priests, officials — all ate a midday meal together. The delegation did not visit the three villages where incidents actually took place. An official investigation still is in progress. Some arrests have been made. It is now learned that on January 1 when three Catholic houses were burned a clash occurred in which a village militiaman grenade exploded, apparently accidentally. Two Catholics and

two non-Christians were killed and 18 wounded, the majority of whom reportedly were Catholics. The clash happened after a large hostile crowd had tried to break into the Duy Can village church, according to the Catholic-sponsored daily, Xay Dung, here. Catholics who had fled from similar attacks in nearby Vo Xu had taken refuge in the Duy Can church, according to the report. A LLEGATION Despite an earlier allegation quoted by a secular news service from Buddhist sources here that Catholics had first attacked the Buddhists, available evidence indicates that non-Christians were the attackers. The attacking operations showed some planning. Of the 60 persons reportedly arrested in connection with these incidents, 16 are said by authorities to have been formerly communists. The situation seems to have improved in the provinces where Catholics were attacked in some districts last November, for instance Quang Tri and Thua Thien provinces and the Archdiocese of Hue. Meanwhile the Ministry of the Interior has issued an announcement warning the people against communist Vietcong efforts to create divisions among religious groups. The ministry declared those guilty of acting against religious freedom, destroying places of worship or religious articles or molesting the faithful will be liable to "severe punisment, including the death penalty."

Haaretz, an independent daily, said the Pope's visit to a country the Vatican does not recognise de jure was an achievement of great importance.

IIUMAMTY OFFENDED BY CONTROL MEASURES
NEW DELHI: ASIANS, WORRIED ABOUT THEIR HUNGRY MILLIONS, ARE WORRIED AS JUST ABOUT JAPAN'S WAY OF CUTTING BACK SOME OF THESE MILLIONS. The surface success of the Japanese effort to halve its birth rate has not won unstinted approval from the Indians and others on this continent who would like to reach the same goal statistically. They shudder at the rapidity with which Japan rushed past contraception into- mass abortion. Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru of India put Japan's example before the representatives of 30 countries who met here last month on population problems. But the impression remains vivid here in teeming New Delhi that thoughtful Asians believe humanity has been offended as the price for statistical achievement in Japan. A study of the reports
brought here by the Japanese bears out this view. Dr. Yoshio Koya, a • government official, acknowledged to his fellow Asians that in the early stages of the Japanese family planning drive abortion was preferred over contraception. Now, he said, the trend has been reversed. S AD EXPERIENCE
Japanese another But told the Asians that his government really does not have the power to control birth trends. Professor John Nishimoiri of Waseda University, Tokyo, said that Asia should learn from the record in Japan, which he termed a sad experience, that when a government actively promotes birth control it must be prepared for thousands of abortions. The professor described himself as the oldest man
THE SHEPHERD AND A LAMB
at the Asian population meeting, and said he had lived through every kind of population policy in his homeland, neutral, probirth and now probirthcontrol. N O STOPPING
The result of the latest policy was not at all what was expected, Professor Nishimoiri said. A mood for birth control became so strong that those who failed with contraception did not hesitate to resort to abortion. The professor cited a survey at Nagoya indicating that only one in three women found contraception effective, and the other twothirds had up to four abortions. The professor, an observer at the meeting for the Catholic professional group Pax Romana, then quoted Prime Minister Ikeda's statement that artificial limitation of births was contrary to Divine Providence. He further quoted the Prime Minister on the importance of a growing population in maintaining a nation's economic dynamism. Noting the dismay in Japan over the current total of about 2,000,000 abortions per year, Professor Nishimoiri said: "I think our government would be willing to change its policy now, but it will have to change the mood of the people first. That is not easy now, once the people have the mood for birth control." LABOUR S HORTAGE
An economics professor at Sophia University in Tokyo, Father Joseph Abad, S.J., said that Japan had achieved its remarkable postwar economic growth in spite of its birth control promotion. He said that Japan was approaching a period in which it could be short of labour. Father Abad supported an aggressive free trade policy as one solution to Asia's population problems. "The all-out effort of our countries should be to demolish everything that disturbs and inhibits the real build-up of their markets both domestic and foreign," he recommended. "This positive approach is more dynamic, more efficient and not as dangerous, humanly speaking, as an all-out birth control policy."

power to bridle Jew-hating among peoples and nations," the paper said, "but has no great reputation in that sphere of activity." Davar, organ of the General Federation of Labour, said the papal visit was a historic landmark in the Church's history and its relationship with the outside world and also raised Israel's prestige in the eyes of the world.
U. Thant To Pope United Nations, N.Y.: The Secretary - General of the United Nations, U Thant, has told Pope Paul VI he welcomes the peace call the Pope made to world leaders from Jerusalem. U Thant's response to the Pope's call was as follows: "I warmly welcome the new pressing appeal for peace you have addressed from Jerusalem. As the maintenance of peace is the foremost objective of the United Nations, I wish to assure you that we share in the call of Your Holiness and express the fervent hope that all men join their endeavours to eliminate all possible misunderstandings in a ceaseless quest for world peace."

Pope Paul VI himself gave absolution at the catafalque. The Mass was celebrated by Benedetto Cardinal Aloisi Masella, Chamberlain of the Holy Roman Church. Cardinal Jullien, long one of the pre-eminent jurists of the Church, died of leukemia at Rome's San Carlo hospital at one o'clock on Saturday morning. Pope Paul, who had visited his bedside at the San Carlo on December 18, had been receiving hourly bulletins on his condition. The Pope sent him a last blessing shortly before he died. 79 MEMBERS

Words Could Make Church History JERUSALEM, Jordan. — Following is the text of the speech in Latin prepared by Pope Paul VI for deiivery at his January 5 meeting with Orthodox Patriarch Athenagoras 1 at the Apostolic Delegation here, but which was not given until the Pope and Patriarch met again on January 6 at the summer residence of the O rthodox Patriarch Benedictus. "Great is our emotion and profound our joy in this truly historic tour, when, after centuries of silence and expectation, the Catholic Church and the Patriarchate of Constantinople meet once again in the persons of their highest representatives. "Great and profound also is our gratitude to you, who have kindly left temporarily your patriarchal See in order to come here to meet us.

"It is in any case an eloquent manifestation of the great goodwill which, thanks be to God, animates ever more all Christians truly worthy of that name; the will, that is, to work to surmount disunity, to break down barriers; the will to engage resolutely upon the path which leads to reconciliation. "Divergencies of a doctrinal, liturgical and disciplinary -nature will have to be examined, at the proper time and place, in a spirit of fidelity to truth and of understanding in charity. "What can and must now commence to develop is that fraternal charity which is ingenious in finding out new ways of showing Itself; which, taking its lessons from the past, is ready to pardon, more ready to believe well than evil. Careful above all to conform itself t o the Divine Master and to allow itself to be drawn and transformed by Him. Of such charity the symbol and example should be the kiss of peace which Our Lord has permitted us to exchange in this holy land and the prayer which Jesus Christ taught us and which we shall shortly recite together. "We cannot express how touched we are by this, your gesture. Nor are we alone in this. The Church of Rome. and the Ecumenical Council, will learn with deep joy of this historic event. As for us, we raise towards God a grateful prayer, and we beg Him to help us follow along this path and to bestow upon you and upon us, who have undertaken it with faith and confidence, that blessing which will ensure happy results. "With these feelings, it is not a 'good-bye' that we say to you, but, if you allow us, an 'au revoir' based upon the hope of other fruitful meetings 'in the name of the Lord' (in nomine domine)."

Decree Changes Church's Own Concept S YDNEY: The Australian Hierarchy's representative on the 10member international commission formed to work out a liturgy for E nglish-speaking notions said that the decree on worship enacted by the ecumenical council has reshaped the Church's concept of herself. Guildford Archbishop Young of Hobart said in an interview with the Catholic Weekly here that the liturfirmly constitution gical of role the establishes Scripture as "a vital factor ill the life of the Church." He said also: "The liturgy document is most significant as far as the laity is concerned. Its doctrinal statements and practical provisions call them to take their active and essential part in the very heart of the Church's life. "The ecumenical overtones of the decree are obvious at every point. "This document ends with stark finality an era when the Church (often in the past used synonymously with the Latin Rite) was regarded by outsiders chiefly as a highly efficient and highly legal ized reality." COMMUNITY "Now we will be more closely allied with the dominant tradition of the Eastern Churches, both Catholic and Orthodox, that sees the Church above all as a worshipping community." Archbishop Young revealed that even before they left Rome, the Australian Bishops approved and English translation of the breviary, the book containing the Divine Office, which all priests are required to recite daily. The Australian Church was the first in the world to approve a vernacular breviary, he said. The prelate stated that while no blanket permission will be given, individual priests will be able to get permission from their bishops to recite the breviary in English starting on the first Sunday of Lent (February 16), the day the constitution goes into effect. to be used in Australia, The English translation
Archbishop Young said, is the one made under the direction of Father Godfrey Diekman, 0.S.B., of St. John's Abbey, Collegeville, Min., editor of the Arnfrican liturgical monthly, Worship, and an official expert of the ecumenical council. Archbishop Young said that the Australian bishops would consider strictly on its merits each request for permission to use the English breviary. But he added that they would do so with "paternal magnanimity." The prelate, whose See includes all of Australia's island state of Tasmania and lists 113 priests, revealed that he has ordered 50 copies of the Collegeville translation for sale to his priests at cost. He predicted that a "contemplative use" of the breviary will gradually replace the "Jesus-and-me" brand of piety in which priests m'ere trained in the past. MORE POWER The 47-year-old Archbishop, who became a bishop at the age of 31, was asked whether the increased power the ecumenical council appears likely to accord to bishops might not lead them to become "too much like dictators." He replied: "Power is always a temptation. But the powers of any office in the Church, be it the priesthood, the episcopate, or the papacy, has to be seen in the total context of a Church viewed no longer as a triumphal, juridical thing: it is the

people of God; the Church of Christ, who came to minister unto, not to he ministered unto . . . "The council has certainly underlined the fact that all positions of authority in the Church are for the good of the people. "Those who hold these offices will remember that with them goes not the power of a boss but the responsibility of a father. "Together with this idea have come the upgrading of the layman and the recognition by the Church that he has very definite rights and that he may institute initiatives in the Church which authority may not quench." RESPECT Asked about the possibility of elimination of some of the pomp surroundings bishops, Archbishop Young said: "Marks of respect are given freely by the people. Bishops who would demand them are few and far between. "It seems to me that there has been too much talk about rings, and titles, and purple, and not enough about Cadillacs, episcopal palaces, valets and round-the-world t ours." The Hobart prelate indicated he does not think that the council will end with the third session next fall. "It is even desirable, from some points of view," he said, "that the council should go on another 10 years. But God forbid that it it will!" •••••••••••••••••.rmo..#4.41Nr , 141.41.1."4

Homes for the Relief of Suffering."
IOW WARTIME ACE NOW LEADS A PROJECT OF LOVE
BRITAIN'S MOST FAMOUS LAST-WAR BOMBER COMMAND PILOT IS DOING MORE FOR THE PLIGHT OF THE WORLD'S INCURABLY SICK THAN ANY SINGLE LIVING PERSON. Group Captain Leonard Cheshire's mission for the RELIEF OF SUFFERING has spread throughout Europe, over much of Africa, the Near East, India and South-East Asia. He has givenhis name to sixty Homes, and is bringing relief and happiness to thousands of chronic sick. His work is influencing those who give and those who receive to think as citizens of the world—as elements of humanity as a whole. His conceptions of charity orientate towards the unanimity of individuals and the urgent international demand for recognising the dignity of man.
CHESHIRE, V.C.
Cheshire In Wartime
T
HIS outstanding flier made effective contribution in winning the European War. The techniques he evolved for accurate pinpoint bombing and low-level enemy target - marking proved of major strategic consequence. After hostilities with Germany, Cheshire flew over Japan as a special British Observer for the atom-raid on Nagasaki. He witnessed the horrifying fireball in the sky, the new manifestation of absolute physical destruction. He is one of the very few alive who actually watched from high above indescribable destruction of human life. He was in at the birth when -a monster sprang into the world, and one fully capable of exterminating everyone and everything. Cheshire was singularly a ware of the fearsome potentialities for good and evil In this supreme scientific discovery. He asked himself: "What price the Western World or the fate of all mankind, if nations with their incongruous differences continued to warmonger?" On the other hand, he was aware that under the almighty fear and power of this absolute weapon, a new order of evolution and human dignity was offered. The colossal calamities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki could well lead to a new and noble welding of the wills of the world's peoples. He felt that the future could only be secure if the "divine spark" in man could be ignited into a world-blaze of genuine "peace - consciousness." The pure energy of such a spark represente d human dignity. A visionary Cheshire recognised in its development the solving of all problem of justitce, morality and brotherly tenderness.
far-reaching way, he perceived it was vital for all populations to actively concern themselves in the organisation of "peace-consciousness," no matter how modest the beginning. It was the little things which eventually led to the big things, and Cheshire believed it was the strict duty of the living generations of World Wars I and II to strive and lay foundations of truth and sincerity on which rising generations could continue to build with confidence in the integrity and in the world of man. The atom-bomb has put humanity on trial for its life. Science had suddenly thrown down the gauntlet, and there would be no second chance if mankind again went berserk. So, from the destructive holocaust of the Second Great War, a rare personality emerged in Leonard Cheshire. As never before after any war, here was a man imbued with a profound desire to work for constructive good. A fact which events across the continuing years have truly evidenced.
. . . In Peacetime
First Cheshire Home IN 1947, Group Captain Cheshire launched a community scheme to help resettle ex-servicemen, and hoping to somehow aid the cause of world peace. It failed! In 1948, whilst winding up the venture and disposing of a large empty house left on his hands, he learned that an ex-member of the scheme, one Arthur Dykes, aged 75, Was dying of cancer in a nearby hospital. His bed was urgently needed for someone who could respond to treatment. Despite strenuous efforts, nowhere else could be found for him, either inside or outside the National Health Service. Finally, with rich compassion, the young flier t ook the old man into the rambling, empty house, where he was nursed until his death. The nursing may have left much to be desired —but at least the old man felt that he was wanted. He was in a home which he could call his own, and so he regained contentment and peace of mind. This first patient who had literally come out of the blue, showed Cheshire the way for sheltering the suffering.

Prince Philip On The Homes IN a book recently published on the Cheshire Homes, entitled "New Lives For Old," the Duke of Edinburgh aptly sums up the situation. He writes: "The history of the treatment of the sick and disabled is illuminated by the flashing humanity ot a handful of reformers and innovators. Leonard Cheshire joins that select group for the world-wide network of homes for the incurably sick, which he has managed to establish in the face of every kind of difficulty and discouragement. "People are never likely to get to know a problem or appreciate its importance unless it affects them personally. The problem of the incurably sick tends to be hidden from the public view and so to many people it doesn't exist. This book displays all the difficulties and unthinking—not deliberately thoughtless — inhumanity which these people have to face as they share the gift of life with their more fortunate neighbours. For a great many the burden must have been hardly tolerable until they found the sustaining comfort and simple encouragement of a Cheshire Home. "This is the story of one of the greatest acts of Humanity in our time." Signed: Philip. 29th January, 1963. ( Royalties earned from the sale of this book go to the Homes.)
Global Goodwill It is an inspiration to study "Cheshire Charity" in relation to the urgent worldwide cry for respectitng the dignity of man. Cheshire has aptly been described "The Pathfinder-of-peace-viaatomic - age - charity - in action." None can deny that where people of many countries join together at their own cost in rescuing those in need, the cause of world understanding and peace is undoubtedly advanced. Cheshire expresses that this is the great contribution which the chronically sick and disabled have to make the world over. Churchmen of every Christian faith, and those following the diverse religions of the East, unanimously ac-
THE TERRIFYING SPECTACLE
claim Cheshire's sane motives and practical efforts as something mighty for the spiritual and physical welfare of humanity. Cheshire looks beyond the present hour with a brilliant creative imagination, and assuredly the scope of far-flung work for the Relief of Suffering must prove a stimulant to evolution. The code of his Homes for human progress and social improvement offers striking explanation between smallminded irrational selfishness and global-minded rational unselfishness. This is a vibrant new age of atoms and electrons, and the unity of science is breaking down rigid compartments of human societies, consequently as never before the accent is on universal thinking and "peaceconsciousness," in the groat
drama of bettering humanity. Cheshire's thinking is that mankind must learn to appreciate that there is no human being so insignificant as not to be of infinite worth in the eyes of Him Who created the Heavens, or so feeble but that his actions may have consequence of infinite moment long after this material system shall have crumbled into nothingness. He is in the van of the new type of inspired philanthropy for the world's downtrodden and incurable sick. He reverences all that will build towards a new and ampler world, embodying in it the best of the old. • Next Week Richard Pape will discuss the nature and functions of the Cheshire Homes.

MUNICH, Germany.—The Soviet government has started a nevecrackdown on religion because of the increasing spread of religious convictions in the Soviet Union, according to an analysis made here by the Institute for the Study of the U.S.S.R. Valery M. Albert, a Ukrainian-born journalist, made the analysis for the institute, which lists itself as "a free corporation of scholars who have left the Soviet Union." Albert says that unlike earlier drives against religion "the present campaign has obliged the Soviet authorities to admit that religious convictions not only are extremely widespread among all sections of the Soviet population, including the party and the Komsomol (Young Communist League), but that they exhibit a tendency to spread further and further."
More To Church Drawing heavily on articles in Soviet publications, Albert says there has been an increase in the Soviet Union in religious festivals and in the number of families going to church, and that there have even been reported cases of christenings in the families of Communist party members. The Herald Tribune News Service reported that at a meeting in January of the Council of Ministers of the Russian Federation there was unanimous support for creation of a special commission aimed at "creating new civil ceremonies of all kinds," presumably in-
eluding christenings and weddings. Albert says that according to the Soviet press the anti-religious activity has increased since J u n e. Quoting from - the antireligious journal Nauka i Religiya (Science and Religion), he says: "In villages, schools, clubs and libraries, atheism corners have appeared, more lectures on scientific atheism are being given," and "leading doctors and journalists are being recruited to give lectures."
Fruitless "Scientific atheistic propaganda and agitation are officially acknowledged to be the basic methods of combating religion in the Albert conU.S.S.R.," tinues, and the former practice of contending with religion through such measures as closing the churches has been judged fruitless. He notes that the Science and Health journal says that -anti-religious propaganda should consist primarily of political and scientific views." • 'This does not mean," he explains, "that such propaganda is a new method which will ensure a quick v,ictory for the regime, which both in theory and in practice has always been the implac-

war on religion by a variety of methods, but antireligious propaganda was never relaxed, even though it was ineffective or had results which were the opposite of those intended. The Soviet press shows that this situation has not altered."
Best Speakers Referring to the clergy, Albert says that "Soviet propaganda can no longer conceal the fact that the cultural level and political
awareness of most of the clergy is very high."
He states that, according to the Science and Religion journal, "the efforts of the theologians are now directed towards showing the compatibility of science and religion, the possibility and the expediency of their peaceful co-existence." He points out further that in some cases the clergy have actually used
communist instruction sessions to further the cause of religion. "Some preachers are reported to be the best orators in their r espective neighbourhoods," he states, "and some of them, to gain the experience which they need to expose atheistic propaganda, have attended propaganda courses for the party and Komsomol political circles for years." Albert says that while in some cases local authorities in the Soviet Union have resorted to "administrative excesses," such as razing churches, in others they have been known to assist churches "At one time, in 1962, for instance, the Moscow churches were short of candles," he says. "Soon t wo containers of candles arrived from the Lvov City Industrial Combine This was a joint effort by responsible officials in charge of goods belonging to the State and the transportation authorities."

He then gives this quotation from the Science and Religion journal: "In recent years many new buildings used for religious purposes have been erected in Tadzhikistan without official permission. Nor was it done without the assistance of collective farms, which allotted men, transport and building materials for the construction." Albert concludes h i s analysis as follows: "Thus, all the efforts which have been made by the Soviet government during its entire existence to eradicate religion seem to have been in vain. Indeed, it appears to be further from realising this aim now than it was at the beginning."

(C. Peguy) F IRST THINGS COME FIRST This is a truism. Our duty is our first obligation, and must be devotedly fulfilled before one undertakes further works. For this reason many people, loyal to the God-given duties, find it quite impossible to assist in other fields. The housewife, for instance, with children at school and one or two at pre-school age, has enough to do without becoming entangled in activities which would demand two afternoons and three nights each w eek. The man in an office or factory cannoot wisely commit himself to extra duties which would ,tax his energy to such an extent that his work would suffer. Such people will please God immensely if they fulfil these tasks to the best of their ability. L AY APOSTOLATE — AN O BLIGATION? Extra tasks in the field of the lay apostolate for instance are to be undertaken by those who are in a position which offers more freedom or spare time. Not only 1,"/"..41.~.0,

are they in a position to perform these works, but oft times they have an obligation to do so. Strange as it may appear. it often happens that those who are most willing to assist in the spreading of the Gospel are those who have the least opportunity to do so, while those who have more leisure have neither the inclination nor the will to do so. The latter class can improve the situation by shaking themselves up. realising that they cannot stand idle all day, and undertake some form of lay apostolic endeavour.

THE
Y.C.W. Branch Notes By Y.C.W. Branch Correspondents
MORE EFFECTIVE ORGANISATION More effective organisation without losing a spirit of friendliness was stressed at last w eek's training course for presidents of the girls' Y.C.W. held at Marian Lodge.
Details of conducting a Y.C.W. meeting and duties associated with various positions was discussed fully. Emphasis was laid on the importance of items of interest and careful preparation of the gospel. Y.C.W. Chaplain, Father J. O'Brien and visiting National President Roseanne Broderick were able to provide some helpful suggestions. Diocesan President Gay Downey, commented that there were a number of aspects in the agenda and the actual organisation of the which needed movement improvement. Suggestions on the running of general meetings were put forward and an agenda was drawn up as a guide to future planning. COURSES Reintroduction of monthly council meetings and half yearly refresher courses for Presidents were amongst the resoultions passed. Explaining the outlines of this year's work campaign National President Roseanne Broderick emphasised the need to help leaders understand and prepare this all-important project. Presidents should seek the guidance of the parish chaplains and a lot of confidence must be built into the vvotk campaign in order that it be conducted properly. The training course which commenced Tuesday evening and continued on Sunday was attended by over 22 presidents and executive members. Presidents' training week is held once a year and provides an invaluable opportunity to demonstrate to the newly -elected president the responsibilities of her position. It also rekindles the spirit of initiative and enthusiasm which enables a president to lead her branch on to greater efforts and thereby advance the overall Y.C.W. cause.
C.W.L. NOTICE
The Cathedral branch of the Catholic Women's League is on roster for daily teas from January 27-31. The minute Secretary, Mrs. Purkiss, requests that branch secretaries notify her regarding the commencement of their meetings for 1964.
Y.C.S. Hold Summer Camps
Recently 87 leaders of the Young Catholic Students' Movement attended summer camps at the Point Walter Migration Hostel. The purpose of the camps was to train the leaders in Y.C.S. technique, and also to prepare them for their apostolate in the schools. Twenty - three schools were represented, including St. Joseph's, Bunbury, and St. Joseph's, Albany. Each day began with Mass in Santa Maria College Chapel. The rest of the time was taken up with talks and discussions, with some free time each afternoon for swimming and tennis. OUTLOOK Some of the talks such as those on the Gospel, the Enquiry, and the Plan of Life were concerned directly with Y.C.S. technique. Others such as "Attitude to "Alcoholics Delinquents," Anonymous," "The Power of Love," and "The Catholic Student at Home," were aimed at broadening the students' outloo .k. After each talk there was either group discussion or a question session. Among the discussion leaders during the boys' camp were David Clarke and Bill Whitehand of Aquinas and John Gherardi and Mario Cattalini from C.B.C., Fremantle. During the girls' camp some of the discussion leaders were Carmela Briguglio of St. Joseph's, Fremantle, Ann Hilsz of Brigidine College, Floreat, Christine Hebb of Sacred Heart, Highgate, Janice Ronchi of St. Joachim's, Victoria Park, and Mary Robinson of St. Joseph's, Northam. Panels of students conducted sessions of talks on "leisure and pleasure" and "activity groups" and expressed themselves very well. The "question box" was very popular and many intelligent questions were asked. The impromptu concert on the final night of the camp unearthed some hidden talent. A special thanks was given to Patsy Sanders and Pauline Stack who were chaperones at the girls' camp.

THERRIES FINALISE PLANS FOR Outings For Xaverian Club 20th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS At the last general meeting it was decided to hold a barbecue tea at the beach on Sunday January 26. Those intending to go should be at No. 1. William Street at 5-30 p.m. Anyone wishing to go on a picnic to Yanchep beach on Sunday February 2 should meet at 10.30 a.m. Those interested in Ten-pin bowling are invited to the bowling alley where a game has been organised for February 5 from 8.30 to 9.30 p.m. Another date members should keep in mind is February 11, when a record evening will be held at the home of ANN DODD, 135 Wheatley Street, Gosnells Members should meet at 7.30 p.m. Despite lighting trouble at tennis last week, members managed to play some good tennis. Tennis is held every Friday night at St. Mary's Tennis Club, Britannia Rd., Leederville Anyone requiring transport should meet at 7.45 p.m. The meeting place for the above functions will be at No. 1 William Street.
PLANS HAVE BEEN FINALISED THE FOR CELEBRATION OF THE T HERRY SOCIETY'S TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY ON JANUARY 27. As previously announced a Mass for all members, exmembers and friends will be held at St. Cecilia's Church, Grantham Street, Floreat Park at 9 a.m. on Monday, January 27. The celebrant will be Father P. McCudden, parish priest of St. Cecilia's and the spiritual director of the Therry Society. The remainder of the day's programme will be a beach picnic at Mullaloo for which the departure point will be St. Cecilia's immediately after the Mass, and return to Perth at approximately 5 p.m. The Council is relying upon members and friends with cars to provide transport for those without, as there is not a sufficient number of these to make the hiring of a bus practicable. The wish has also been expressed by the Council that all those who cannot attend the picnic for any reason. should make every effort to attend the Mass as this is
the principal feature of the day's activity and will be offered for the success of the Society's apostolate and endeavours in the coming year. The public performance of "A Phoenix too Frequent" on Sunday January 19 was well attended and greatly enjoyed by the audience. The success of this production has given rise to a plan for future informal presentations during the next few months. Several suitable garden settings are available around the metropolitan area and programmes and dates will be announced soon. The acted play-reading of "The Telltale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe produced by Peter Hardy -Atkins on Monday provided a good exercise for those taking part and some enthralling moments for members in the audience. It was followed by a lively discussion session on the problems of production and characterization involved. Two more play-readings were cast, principally from novice members of the Society and will provide them with some very valuable acting experience.

Wandering People I
REILAND has about six thousand "wandering people." In official language they are "itinerants," most house-bound people refer to them as "the tinkers," few if any are authentic gypsies, and they were recently the subject of a long report by a Commission set up by the Government to study their needs and make . recommendations about their future. They intermarry, they move around the country in caravans as families, many of the womenfolk and children engage in a good deal of house-to-house begging, many of the men buy and sell horses (few of them thoroughbreds), others follow the traditional trade of tinsmith, which is closely related to the traditional name of tinker. Each family stays a week or a fortnight in each place —usually the side of a laneway near a town—in their caravans or tents. Farmers complain that during many such sojourns, their fields and farmyards become depleted; the residents of a number of the towns complain that unnecessary pandemonium breaks out when the menfolk imbibe too freely in the taverns. The tinkers are frequently "moved on" by the Civic Guards (the Irish uniformed police force, which is unarmed), occasionally by local groups of farmers or others who allege loss or destruction, and often by

MISSION NOTES By Rev. Father W. J. Foley
• STUDENTS IN A "RED-BOARD JUNGLE" The Communist-run ":International Federation of Students" has appealed to all the governments of Eastern Europe to increase the number of student scholarshisp during the coming year in favour of youths from Africa and Asia. For if Communism is to make progress in the newly independent countries on both continents, the young ruling classes must receive a good Marxist education! Approximately 23,000 foreign pupils were studying behind the Iron Curtain during the year 1962-63 —10,400 in Russia alone. More than half of these were from Africa and Asia. And these figures do not include the technicians and trade unionists who follow professional training courses, nor the many members of the various Communist parties who are being formally indoctrinated. Red China, too, aims especially at students from Africa—she wishes to convert the Dark Continent to her own brands of Stalinism and anti-Americanism. More than two hundred sub-Sahara students were learning the Chinese language at Peking's Institute of Foreign Languages prior to entering the universities in 1961. But many Africans were either expelled or left voluntarily before finishing their studies because of the extreme racial discrimination, which forbids contact between the black and the Chinese (as did a number of the 400 African students attending school in Bulgaria). • IRISH SISTERS 100 YEARS IN SOUTH AFRICA The Sisters have been engaged mostly in school work, but they have also been active in more general mission work especially among the coloured peopleof the Cape. They now have twenty convents in South Africa. While continuing their regular missionary work they are at present making a speciality of work among the deaf and dumb. The laws of South Africa do not permit the proper incorporation of coloured Sisters into their community. The Sisters, however, founded a Congregation of St. Rose of Lima for coloured Sisters. • BASUTOS AND THE CHURCH'S PROGRESS The tremendous interest of the Basuto people in the progress of the Church in their country was foremost among the impressions gained by the correspondent of a Catholic weekly at the Church's centenary. "Masses were said from daybreak and throughout the morning, and the Basuto people filled the church at every Mass. The number of communicants was so large that three priests were distributing Holy Communion at the same time. "Confessions were heard, not only in the confessionals, but also in the aisles, where a priest would take a chair, sit down and at once find himself confronted by a queue of penitents. That night, Basutos who had come on foot for something like 15 or 20 miles sat round the cathedral in bitter cold, protected only by the blankets they wore, waiting for the dawn Mass. On Sunday, the great Centenary Mass had to be held in the open air as there would have not been enough room in the cathedral. The congregation could not have numbered much less than 10,000.
G OD LOVE
YOU
By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen GOD implanted in the human body two impelling passions for the preservation of life—one, the hunger of our own body that our personal life might be preserved by nourishment; the other, the hunger to beget in love a body like unto our own through the generation called birth. What is happening to these passions in the world today? Like all other things, they have become divorced. Our American civilisation has taken the hunger of begetting a new life, isolated it from birth and erected a statue to the new goddess, Sex. BUT we forget that another biological urge is driving men to degradation, famine and disease, outside of this wealthy, affluent and overstuffed land, namely, hunger. If, after eating, these poor people regurgitated their food and separated the function of eating from the function of nourishihng the body, we would have a parallel with the American
divorce of sex from the nourishment of either love of husband and wife or love of family. WOULD it not be well for the United States to devote some of the energy now devoted to sex towards nourishing famished people of the world, knowing full well that biological nutrition is more fundamental than somatic tintillation. We who have the Faith and a remnant of Christ's moral teaching cannot say this does not concern us, asking: "What am I to Hecuba or Hecuba to me?" Because others make love synonymous with smut and equate our relation to the starving of the world with governmental aid, it does not follow that we Christians are immune from double duty — reparation for the sins of others and alleviation of the hunger of others.
our sins; the hunger of India and Latin America and Africa is our hunger. If the world's sex and hunger has broken Christ's Heart, how shall we be His followers unless our own hearts are broken? To us is given the privilege of carrying a cross to expiate the sins of others, to lift a cross from starving bodies that their souls may be free to serve God. May the disturbance of the Holy Spirit move you all to share with the Crucified Christ the burden of the world's sill and hunger.
GOD LOVE YOU to L.B.S. for E3/10/-, "For the Missions;" to Anon. for El.; to Anon. for 5/-; to Anon for £1, "For the Missions;" to O.C.B. for 4/-; to J.E. for El, "For the Poor."

ElTWO POOR EFFORTS
In the Coventry Handicap of one mile HIT THE FRONT and FAIRWAY LAD were sent out first g.nd second favourite and while on form the race appeared to be between them, both ran shocking races and never appeared likely to take a hand in the finish. The race was won by TRAVMONT, who just beat ROAD MAP, who looked home until he seemed to stumble close to the posT. This field was far from strong. IMPRESSIVE COLT The easy manner in which ROCK DRILL disposed of WELLARD, whose form has been good, in the 6 -furlong Bentley Handicap, stamps this youngster as above average. Further improvement can be expected and he looks like justifying the 2,000gns. paid for him as a yearling. The way he drifted in the bettitng suggests that he was not yet at his top. ENEABBA, another highpriced colt, showed his first glimpse of form by running third, but he was a long way from the winner. WELLARD, the heavily backed favourite, ran an honest race, but perhaps he has had enough racing for the present. 13 IMPROVED STAMINA Previously MADRINA has shown that six furlongs is as far as she cares for, yet in the 61-furlong Welter after being caught by shortpriced favourite LORD BOSWELL near the post, she found a little extra and won in a photo-finish. If ridden quietly in the early stages, the second horse could be seen to greater advantage over a longer distance. YARNER'S run showed that he will soon have his foot on the till. 3 EXCITING FINISH 1 Only inches separated the first four horses when MINDEROO, aided by a lucky r ails run, won the seven-furlong Novice. It was his first win after countless tries. Right behind the placed horses was AQUITANIA, Who was sent out at a very short quote and was only having his second start in a r ace. Never on the course, he came home stoutly in a Style which suggests that , 11,0V-41.4"0.0 ,,,e4,4.4,4 01 . "N"44'###.01

from now on he will account for even better horses than those who finished ahead of him in this race. Those who supported him —and others—are strongly advised to stick to this fellow.
n
DISTANCE TOO FAR
Hot favourite PEEDONG and BOLD STORY both found the nine furlongs of the Milan Handicap too far for them. On their performances, they are purely sprinters. Old WINJAR—he is now a nine-year-old— came home with a wet sail to beat KUANTAN, who seemed to have the race won when he went to the front in the straight, but his run was short-lived. On his good showing this iron horse could win again. • FILUNJA DISAPPOINTS Backed from 4's to 6-4, FILUNJA was the heaviest supported horse of the day and although she finished fourth never looked like winning. This mare is a bit of a jade and if history repeats itself, she will run her best races when least fancied, as happened when she ran a good second recently. The race, run over 61 furlongs, was won in good style by KING'S LYRIC, who was quietly backed from 10's to 6s and when sound takes a lot of beating in this style of race. • WOTTARA'S GEM MAKES AMENDS WOTTARA'S way The GEM won the Mile Coventry Handicap (1) showed that she migkt have been unlucky when badly away last week. Favourite COPPER SON was never out of trouble and did well to finish fourth. MANTISIA had to be checked coming to the turn and was then disappointed for a run in the straight, otherwise he might have done better than run second. With 50 yards to go, MASTER ORL looked like winning, but he dived in and Dickinson had to stop riding him. Had this not happened, he would have finished closer than third. In all it was a race full of incidents and after the event the stewards found P. O'Loughlen guilty of careless riding, causing interference to COPPER SON and MASTER ORL, and suspended his licence for one month.

For family reasons Perth lightweight Glen Davies has decided against moving to Victoria permanently. This rider is assured of plenty of opportunities in Perth..

SON 0' MINX IMPROVES
This good two-year-old who injured a leg a few months ago causing him to miss the Christmas Carnival, is now doing striding work without favouring his leg. Hopes are held that this colt will be seen in action here during Easter.
East Vie. Park And Highgate Impressive
East Victoria Park and Highgate themshowed selves the two superior teams by their impressive deciding wins over Shenton Park and Applecross respectively - in the A-Grade competition last week.
Bedford Park defeated Claremont in a vigorous game and maintained their hold on third position in the top four. Even though Claremont were defeated they still hang on to fourth position by percentage. Cottesloe outplayed Bassendean in a copybook game by a great margin. Their forward play was perfect.
Both teams were on par with one another in each half, but West Perth managed to be in front at the finish.
C-GRADE Leederville and Claremont had a trial run for the second semi-final, with a drawn game. An extra five minutes was played, with Leederville managing to emerge winners by scoring one point. In the first half, the defence of both teams was of high class and the scoring rate was kept to a minimum.

Progressive Move
n
THE W.A.T.C. has introduced in a n y improvements and amenities for patrons at Ascot in recent times, but by far the greatest is the club's decision to call for tenders for an escalator to be installed at the eastern end of the big stand with its new modern lounges, etc. The club hopes to have the escalator in operation before the end of this year.
Not only elderly grandstand patrons praised the new idea, but all — and there are many hundreds —who climb the stairs seven or more times an afternoon to obtain a firstclass view of the races are happy about such a forward move. Such improvements, together with good, clean racing, are sure to be rewarded by larger public at

"Camelot" the lavish J. C. Williamson musical is having a very successful season in Adelaide. The production, which is directed by the former artistic director of the Playhouse, Raymond Westwell, opened in Adelaide on November 30, and has now had to extend its season until February 12. It will then go on to Melbourne for an indefinite season. Perth girl, Dianne Ferman (pictured) is in the ballet in "Camelot" and will stay with the company for its Australian tour. , Unfortunately Perth audiences will not have the chance of seeing this production for at least three years. Dianne, who is 21, was educated at Loreto Convent, Nedlands and was a member of the West Australian Ballet company before she went to the Eastern States about four years ago.
The Universities Dramatic Society has commenced rehearsals for its revue "Noth'n on at the Dolphin." It is due to be presented in the Dolphin Theatre at Easter-time. The cast comprises Merrilyn Bosworth, Kay McDermott, Routman, Dahlia Ross D'unne, Vic Marsh and Wayne Fairhead.
DIANNE FERMAN terpreted the play as an action drama. Stripped of the restrictions of time and space, Hamlet will pursue disaster with a relentlessness quite unfamiliar to our modern traditions.
Viennese-born Mr. Foul Gnati, has arrived in Sydney to take up the position of resident ballet instructor with the Australian Ballet School. Mr. Gnati, a graduate of the Royal Danish Ballet School, hopes to introduce t he Bournonville method to Australian ballet dancers. ' The school which is sponsored by the Elizabethan Theatre Trust will provide full-time, post graduate professional training to students from all States.
* The University Societies, by arrangement with The Festival of Perth Committee, will present Shakespeare's "Hamlet" in thF new Fortune Theatre from January 29 to February 8. The production is by Jeana Bradley and Philip Parsons. The new Fortune Theatre, built within the new Arts Building at the University has been constructed to the same sepcifications of the original Fortune Theatre built in London in 1600. In this reconstruction of an Elizabethan play-house, the audience will become part of the relationship which Shakespeare's actors had with their audience. "Hamlet," one of the best known and perhaps the best loved of Shakespeare's plays, will give the produciers an excellent opportunity to make the most of the immense three-sided stage. To emphasise this, they have in-
Film Is Hard To
Interpret
IINDOUBTEDLY the best *# film seen so far in this year's International Film Festival is "Last Year at Marienbad," directed by the Frenchman Alain Resnais. It is a beautiful work of art and ambiguity. The film loses all sense of continuity because of the masterly technique employed by Resnais. It chops and changes from the present to the past, to the future and the imaginative. It is hard to interpret those scenes that are real from those that are imaginative. The story is basically a simple one. It is about a love affair set in a baroque palace-hotel. A young man tries to convince a beautiful
young woman that they had fallen in love 12 months previously. The woman tells him he must be joking— surely she can't have forgotten. It is a story of a persuasion, but the passion goes no deeper than eye or ear. If it is entertainment you are seeking, you will be disappointed with "Last Year at Marienbad." You will leave the theatre in a quandary as to whether the supposed romance happened at Marienbad or Friederichsbad. Or did it happen at all Most certainly you will not have reached a decision on leaving the theatre. Should you eventually come to a conclusion, you can be certain it will differ from your friend's for there is not just one solution to this "puzzle."—D.T.

NOVEL MEDIUM Black Theatre of THE Prague is unusual enter-
tainment that is at times reminiscent of Walt Disney's cartoons. One feels it is very much an experimental company, but one that should develop into a new and vital medium. At present it is rather an uneasy mixture of mime, magic and fantasy set to music. The leader of the group, Jiri Srnec, is quite delightful. One could believe that he could be successful in any medium — a perfect comic with the particular gift of pathos that is peculiar to the gifted few (Chaplin and Marceau are the two greats). The Black Theatre is a novel and entertaining evening — not the lush excitement of the American musical nor the exquisite moments of the ballet, but something unique and delightful in its own way.
proaching their usual form. Bartok's "Hungarian Pictures," a series of programmatic sketches, were vividly played and Corelli Suite for String Orchestra was notable for some fine playing of the first violins. MAJOR MINUS The two major works, Schumann's Fourth Symphony and Mozart's G Major Flute Concerto, were both minor in performance. It is difficult to analyse the S chumann performance, but the general effect was pedestrian. The Mozart was uneven with all the defects in the first movement. The soloist was Allyne Tilsed, who is, of course, a local girl, and the decision to let an orchestra member be a concerto soloist deserves the highest praise. The work is a difficult one with differences of style between the first and second movements. The first is pure rococco, lucid, brilliant, with sharp detail forming an harmoniously balanced whole; the second is profound, personal, a foreshadowing of the great Mozart of the piano concertos. It follows that the first movement is difficult technically while the second needs maturity of interpretation. It says much for Miss Tilsed that she succeeded admirably in the second movement, where her playing had poetic qualities of greatness. In the first movement, however, perhaps through nerves, she often snatched and scurried, producing zigzags and straight lines, both abhorrent to the curving rococco. THE second concert of t he Festival of Perth was a

SENOFSKY Lab 's "Symphonie Espagnole" completed the first half of the programme. It is a strange name for a work for solo violin and orchestra which does not conform to concerto principles, let alone symphonic. Much of it consists of virtuoso playing against very thin orchestration and even a brilliant violinist like Berl Senofsky couldn't do much with the first three movements; the work came to life only in the fourth movement. CARLO ZECCHI The genial conductor, Carlo Zecchi, came into his own with Tchaikovsky's Fifth, which occupied the entire second half of the concert. Lacking the forces to give a massive performance, he concentrated on bringing out all the lovely detail of instrumental colour which is often lost in the usual Sturm und Drang. All through the concerts Zecchi seemed to have followed this course; to at least one devotee of the quiet life, the result was very rewarding. —H.T.G.
DRAMATIC SETTING FOR OPERA FILM EIE film of "Don Giovanni" will almost certainly prove to be the greatest event of the Festival of Perth, just as the " Rosenkavalier " was last year. Again, as last year, this is a filming of a stage performance at the Salzburg Festival. It dates from 1954 and is set in the old Festival Playhouse at the Riding School; Summer this is an extraordinary theatre in an old quarry and it provides a wonderfully dramatic setting for the opera. The level of performance was far above anything that we see in Australia, let alone Perth, and indeed was so high that criticism here is to weigh interpretation rather than ability.
•
great, improvement on the first. The first half of the concert was more genuinely Festival music although none of the three concert p r o grammes approaches those of the Serenade Concerts at the end of February which should be something of a musical event. Both Schubert's "Rosamunde"music and Mozart's Four German Dances were easy on both ear and brain, with their cheerful tunes and strong rhythms; both were excellently played.
DAEMONIC The conductor was the late Wilhelm Fuertwangler, who very properly accentuated the daemonic qualities of the music; unfortunately, the orchestral sound, both in weight and detail, was damped by the recording and rendered even worse by the poor sound reproduction of the Somerville Auditorium. There are few greater glories in opera than Donna Anna's Act I aria ("Or sai chi l'onore'), sung by a really powerful soprano as the crest on a towering breaker of orchestral sound. FINE ANNA There are few sopranos capable of singing it, but Elizabeth Gruemmer in this film is one of the finest Annas that I have ever heard! it is therefore a double pity that mere technical defects should have robbed us of the full orchestra. Gruemmer was matched by the aging Erna Berger, visually miscast as the young peasant girl,Zerlina, but vocally she was as
young as ever. The one weakness was a rather wooden Elvira, who should be the most volatile of the women, played by no less than Lisa Della Casa. DELLA CASA We must remember the date. She had just graduated into opera from operetta and this was her first Salzburg performance, I think, after her success in "Arabella" the year before at Lucerne. Like so many singers and, come to that, crocketers, she ' suffered from being pushed on too quickly. Five years later she would have stolen the show. Another great star making his first appearance about this time was Walter Berry who, young as he was, put in a first-class Masetto. Anton Dermota was a good stock Ottavio and Otto Edelman brought the sly shiftiness of Leoporello vividly to life, so there remains only the Don himself. ODD DON Cesare Siepi, in the title role, sang impeccably, but his interpretation of the character was most odd. He made him frivolous and shallow; this would be allowable, but added to this was a quality of human re spect vis-a-vis the other characters and downright fear in the presence of the supernatural Statue; at the end, he had to screw up his courage to final impenitence. The usual reading of Don Giovanni is a fearless contempt for man and devil. However, this did not spoil a magnificent performance. Those readers who have never seen a first-class performance of this great opera should not miss the second season at the Como Theatre at the end of February—it is tremendous entertainment. —H.T.G.

WORKS GOOD ADIO REPLIES R AND PlIARISAISM By the Rev. Dr. Rumble M.S.C.
WHITE AUSTRALIA POLICY 'UNCHRISTIAN'
K. T. QUEENSLAND, asks: A ship's engineer v isiting Australia, I ask, as a Catholic and an Asian of British nationality: Is not the "White Australia Policy" a breach of Christian charity?
R.: Not necessarily. Christian charity forbids racial discrimination based on antotipathy and wards other racially-different peoples. There can be no justification for any contempt or hatred of them because of differences of race or colour. But that does not deprive individual nations of the right to have their own immigration standards and policies which they believe required for their own welfare. All nations claim that right, and we cannot argue that thought for their own good necessarily implies an uncharitable contempt for the persons of others who are quite well adjusted to the environment from which they wish to come, but who, transferred to another environment, might through no fault of their own create whether social problems from a cultural economic or ethnological point of view. The morality of the "White Australia Policy" depends, therefore, on the reasons or motives for it. The Catholic "International Union of Social Studies," consisting of theologians, sociologists, and lawyers from all over the world, after several years of research and discussion, published in 1949 a very important book entitled "Code of International Ethics." In section 57, the declaration occurs: "The differences between the various branches of the human family are so great that the fusion of races, although it always remains physiologically possible, is fraught with so many moral and social dangers that it is not in any way desirable. One cannot, therefore condemn absolutely measures designed to prevent a harmful fusion of races. But justice and charity demand that the people so affected should be allowed a proper field of expansion on those Continents which nature itself seems to have prepared for them."

The American problem concerns, not immigration laws, but the denial of rights of citizenship to millions of coloured people who are as much born Americans as the rest of the population. Under the circumstances there, the disruption of public order due to the prejudices of white segregationists is so great that the govscarcely knows ernment how to deal with it, while Catholic Bishops have told Catholics at least that the

at some time or another all, Office Boy and Cabinet Minister, Atheist, Democrat and Communist, Scientist and Philosopher, ask themselves the question: Is there a Life After Death? And not all the natural science in the world, even with the aid of parapsychology, will help to unlock the door to the mystery and provide a satisfactory answer to it. Recourse must be had to the teachings of divine revelation; and even that, while stressing the reality of life in the world to come, will to a great extent leave unsatisfied our factual curiosity about the actual details of it.

y ou please repeat it for me? R.: As I have answered the question hundreds of times over the years, I can't possibly recall the exact words in ,which any particular explanation was given. But substantially all the replies would follow the same general outline. Firstly, instead of asking: Where are the dead? it would be better to ask: What becomes of the dead? When we speak of "where," we inevitably think of space measurements. For example, localities on the surface of this earth are determined by degrees of longitude and latitude. If we think in terms of space and ask where is the moon we "locate" it within the solar system; and the solar system itself is located in relation to the stars. Now, as regards man, both sound philosophy and divine revelation teach that the human soul is not a material thing like the physical body, but immortal of its very nature and that it lives on as a disembodied spirit after the death of the material

R.: No. He warned against self -complacency and pride in one's good works, and against contempt of others. Turn over a few pages of the same gospel of St. Luke to 19:8. There you will find Zacheus saying: "Lord, the half of my goods I give, to the poor; and if I have wronged any man, I restore him fourfold." And Jesus said to him: "This day is salvation come to this house." The real difference was between the spirit of the Pharisee and the spirit of Zacheus. "DANGER OF CATHOLIC TEACHING"

denial of rights to coloured citizens is a sin against both justice and charity great enough to warrant exclusion from the Sacraments. In Australia, where such a situation does not exist, an immigration policy precisely to prevent such social evils from ever arising is another matter altogether. Before one can say the guilt rests on every individual voting for a government which adopts such a policy for what it believes to be the good of Australia, one would first have to prove the policy itself to be unjust and uncharitable to other peoples. That would not be easy to do. Even today, after hundreds of years, coloured people in America, whose were ancestors brought there against their will, might well wonder whether their lot would not have been happier had they been born among people racially the same in Africa instead of having been born in what amounts virtually to exile in America. The problem is an immense one which defies easy solutions.

body, emancipated from the conditions of space with which it \vas linked by the material body. It is useless to ask "where" the soul has gone after the death of the body in the same sense as that in which we are told, when we ask "where" a friend in this world has gone, that he has gone from Sydney to Melbourne, or from Australia to Europe or America. The soul has gone from this world altogether; and we have to ask rather what becomes of it than "where" it has gone. Now for an answer to this we are dependent on divine revelation. By that we are told: "It is appointed unto men once to die, and after that the judgment." Heb. 9:27. When a doctor says of a man, therefore, "he's dead"—if the doctor is right —we can say "he's judged"; and that means, of course, by God. As a result of that judgment, if quite fit, his soul is admitted to a state of eternal happiness we call heaven; if not quite fit, to a state of suffering and expiation of his deficiencies till he is quite fit—a state we call purgatory; and if quite unfit, to a state of eternal misery which we call hell. The term "where," in the sense of locality as we understand it from our present experience in this material universe, cannot strictly apply to any of these three states, although we naturally tend to think in such a way. That is why I said that, instead of asking: Where are the dead? it is better to ask: "What becomes of the dead? And that I have explained, as briefly as possible. The soul of man, after the death of the body, if quite fit by virtue and holiness goes to heaven; if not quite fit owing to repented but unexpiated sins, to purgatory; if quite unfit owing to unrepented serious or mortal sins, to hell.
. LUISINI
R.: No one who understands Catholic doctrine would think in such a way. Every Catholic knows that in order to gain any merit or deserve any reward of eternal or heavenly value, one must be in a state of grace.. It is the grace of God, bestowed upon us through His generosity and mercy, that enables us to do any of the good and supernatural works that He has promised to reward: and it is in justice to Himself, to His own positive decree and promise, that God bestows the reward. The Catholic outlook was summed up by the Blessed Virgin Mary when she said: "My soul cloth magnify the Lord . . . because He that is mighty hath done great things to me and holy is His name . . . for He hath regarded the humility of His hand maid and behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed" (Lk. 1:46-49). She admitted that any good in her was God's work, and she glorified, not herself, but God; yet her correspondence with the fidelity to God's grace deserved that all generations would call her blessed. If you read the lives of the canonised Saints of the Catholic Church you will find them animated by the same spirit. They did not insult God by despising the rewards He has promised to His "good and faithful servants." They sought to deserve them. But they never indulged in thoughts of pride and selfsatisfaction, realising that the virtue of humility had to accompany all that they did, if they wanted to be pleasing in God's sight. Always they kept in mind Our Lord's words that He is the vine and we the branches; that the branches cannot bear fruit apart from the vine; that any merit of theirs could only be in, with and through Christ; and yet they knew that the merit, even though made possible by Christ, was in a true sense theirs and deserving of the rewards God has promised in return for the fidelity to Christ which they had made the outstanding characteristic of their lives in this world.

No matter what decisions the Council takes, the root of any rejuvenation of the Church's pastoral endeavour lies in the seminaries. Many Council Fathers share this conviction and one of them a member of the Council Commision on Seminaries and a chairman of one of the Commission's Sub-committees, is outspoken on the need for a new deal in seminaries. He is Denis Eugene Hurley of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate Order who was born in Cape Town on November 9, 1915, and is Archbishop of Durban. Archbishop Hurley believes that present seminary training neither inculcates pastoral spirit sufficiently. nor provides methods for priests to operate most • effectively.

In the past they have been dominated by the need to preserve and defend rather than to preach and present "says the South African bishop. "Until now seminarians have allowed expression only to a scholastic way of thinking. Its particular form reflected the general outlook of the Church at the time of the Counter-Reformation. "A preliminary two years philosophy was thought to he an essential prelude to four years theology. Certain categories were established in our minds and then theology was poured into these moulds. This philosophy was a complete break with young men's previous experience. A direct result was that we believed that this very severe and austere way of thinking was the only way t o think theology. It cut us off completely from the way of thinking of our contemp-

oraries who went to secular universities and it took us 25 years to recover from the shock." Archbishop Hurley claims that seminary training should be given a wholly pastoral orientation. "The first and perhaps the second year of the seminary should provide a biblical and liturgical base and students should be taught how to communicate what they learn. A T THE HEART "During the rest of the course they should fill in this total overall vision they receive at the start, a vision of the Christian mystery and their part in it. Every theological treatise should be treated historically beginning with the Old and New Testament of the subject, then moving on to the patristic treatment, that of scholasticism and of modern times and including its implications for the modern age. Scripture must be placed at the heart of theology." Philosophy and scholasticism in particular seem to come off badly in Archbishop Hurley's proposed reforms as responsible for rigid outlooks which thwart pastoral effectiveness. His complaint is. not with scholastic philosophy in itself but rather with its present role in seminaries: "Scholasticism provides a necessary discipline of the mind but it comes too early in the present curriculum. Just how it should be treated and where it should be placed is a matter for study. Possibly it should be run simultaneously with theology. It could be stripped to its essentials to provide students with the training necessary for them to apply their theology to the cultures in which they work." SOCIAL SCIENCES Did that mean he would advocate a student of the social sciences for seminarians? "One cannot do everything in a few years' training but the student should know something of t h2 social sciences to help him understand the people with whom he will work. H.e should have sufficient knowledge . of them to follow up this study later. He should have a practical initiation into his pastoral work during his training and this

Share Ills Gifts there he sees a Church in which "instead of emphasis
Supposing this infection of love were to be caught by other Christian families. Just think what it would mean to thousands of Negro and Puerto Rican children desperately in need of personal love and care to be taken into white, Christian homes and given the benefits of normal family living. It might cause a little stir in the neighbourhood at first and would probably be a conversation piece at adjoining kitchen tables. But it would certainly be the beginning of a direct and personal answer to the interracial problem. The benefits accruing to the family itself would be immeasurable, since God will not be outdone in generosity. The opportunity for the children in the family to share their things, their table, their lives with others less fortunate should be an extraordinary teaching experience for them in the whole meaning of love. To see these foster-children, victims of neglect and indifference, begin to blossom, awaken and even smile spontaneously as they begin to realise that someone cares for them personally, would almost be enough reward for the sacrifices entailed at the moment. The real. experience would be in later years when the child has become a man and you see in him an upright, moral, responsible and loving adult. Then you could use the scriptural phrase with real meaning, "And God saw that it was good." OTHERS NEEDS What is so desperately needed in the world today is involvement with or commitment to the needs of o thers. We can salve our consciences to some extent at least by our gifts of money and clothing. And this is good. But from Christians who say their prayers regulady and go to Church and lead moral lives and are blessed by God with enough material things to make life more than a battle for existence, something more might be expected. It was said of our forefathers in the Faith. "See how those Christians love one another.- Wouldn't it be wonderful if that same thing could be said of us by the modern pagan? If we were to give of our time as well as of our money; if we were to give ourselves as well as of our things: if we were to give our persons as well as of our words, this would not only be a better place but God would be given the glory He deserves. "Amen I say to you, when you have done it to one of these my least brethren, you have done it to Me."

January 17 the feast of Sant'Antonio Abate and all the animals in Italy rejoice Sant'Antonio, rather for than Saint Francis, is their patron. He is usually depicted with a piglet by his side. On the 17th even the hunters who are so intent on slaughtering all birds relax for the day. But Sant'Antonio Abate is patron in particular of working animals which are blessed in many churches on the 17th. In some southern Italian towns a pig, fattened at public expense, is sold to the highest bidder and the money goes to the church. It is a fair guess that the porker does no work after the sale. In the Abruzzo region working horses take part in races, processions and tournaments on the 17th which is a strenuous way of passing a holy day. There are few working animals in Rome—even the horses of the cabs do not over-exert themselves. Still "be-kind-to-animals' the enthusiasts" have a field They go overboard day. for the cats which throng Rome. They are supposed to inhabit the city from the time of Cleopatra and they certainly have that look.

This practical expression of faith and thanksgiving could serve all of us as a model for our own activities during this year of 1964. It expresses faith because of this couple's practical recognition that what they had of the things of life were the gift of God. The best form of showing gratitude to God is by a willingness to share His gifts with others.
