Hungarian Catholics "He Is Not Here, But Is Risen" Are Still Persecuted Fear, Anxiety, Humiliation Innsbruck, Austria: Despite outward appearances of Church freedom, Hungarian Catholics are still meeting a great deal of government harassment and frustration. Priests and bishops are prevented from carrying out their duties. C lergymen are forced to join communist front organisations. Children are subjected to anti-Church propaganda in schools. These charges have been made in Innsbruck in a joint declaration by seven prominent Hungarian priests. The priests, headed by Monsignor Jozsef Zagon, a member of the Sacred Consistorial Congregation in Rome, assert that the Church-State difficulties in Hungary cannot be solved merely by settling the threat of imprisonment of Jozsef Cardinal Mindszenty, but require a major shift in government policy. often impressed by what appears to be complete freedom often impressed by what appears tobe complete freedom of Church activity, but it enumerates the following conditions that impede public life: • The Hungarian government prevents the Holy See from installing new Father Gellert bishops.

• Priests are forced to join the so-called Freedom Movement for Priests, and some of them are sent in delegations to places like Moscow and North Vietnam. • Teachers are required to give classes in atheism. Catholics find it difficult to gain erarance to the universities. - Classes in religion are blocked, even though guaranteed by law. "The Free World can hardly imagine how great a burden of suffering, fear, anxiety and humiliation is linked to these facts," the declaration states. "If the Hungarian State intends to improve its relation to the Church, it has to give the Church its fundamental rights and its freedom. This way, the Mindszenty case can also be solved."

"THE PILL" ..Moral Aspects Outlined Speaking at the Riverton Cana Conference last Friday night, Monsignor E. Sullivan said that the Church had not stated that the anovulant pill could be administered to all women for any set period after childbirth. Such decisions were to be mode by competent doctors in accordance with principles given by the Church.

Right Reverend Mon signor Sullivan, D.D., Ph.D., outlined several moral aspects of the use of "the pill" after the matter had been raised at a previous session of the conference. He said that "the pill" was a normal preparation used for the suppression of ovulation; it had some lawful uses and some that were unlawful. He said that a Dr. Rock, who had been very active in the research which led to the development of the pill and subsequent experiments, had recently written a book, "The Time Has Come," in which, as a faithful Catholic, he had valiantly fought for the proposition that the pill could be used licitly, simply as a means for preventing pregnancy and that it was in a different category altogether from the well-known contraceptive condemned by the Church. "We have the answer to this," Dr. Sullivan went to say, "which was given in 1951, before `the pill' was produced for use, in which

Pope Pius XII said that direct sterilisation, that is sterilisation which aims, either as a means or an end in itself, to render child - bearing impossible, was a grave violation of the moral law. " Direct sterilisation, whether permanent or temporary, is unlawful by virtue of the natural law from which which the Church has now power to dispense. And then in September, 1958, in another talk to a group of doctors, the Pope repeated this, naming this pill as causing a temporary sterilisation, and said that to use it simply as a means of preventing pregnancy by suppression of ovulation was unlawful. In the very same talk he did say that indirect sterilisation could be permitted in keeping with the common interpretation of the law."

ment, not with a view to preventing conception, but solely on the doctor's advice as a remedy necessitated by a malady of the uterus or organism, she induces indirect sterlisation which remains permissable according to the general principle of actions with a double effect." Exprining t h e term "double effect," Dr. Sullivan said that where an action had a double effect, the bad effect could be tolerated for the sake of the good one if there were sufficient reason. The Pope's words were to be understood accordingly — the pill could be riven so long as it was intended to produce the remedy of some pathological condition, even though it had the effect of making the woman sterile, at least temporarily.

Double Effect

Applying the general principle to particular cases, Dr. Sullivan went on to say: "The use of this medicament for the correction of menstrual disorder such as haemorrhages is lawful according

Dr. Sullivan said that in answering this precise question the Pope said: "The reply depends on the person's intention. If the woman takes this medica-

to the unanimous opinion of theologians. "If a woman has an irregular menstrual cycle which is due to some pathological condition, then there is no doubt about the lawful use of this pill.

Some Doubt "If there is only a slight irregularity is it licit to ensure a greater irregularity? There is no question here of women with a wide irregularity which makes the calculation of a 'safe period' impossible for some women. Where that happens, due to a pathological cause, we have already considered it. The answer is simply, yes. But in the case of just a slight irregularity there is no unanimity among theologians as to whether this is a sufficient reason or not. But, since there is doubt about it, we must give the benefit of the doubt and say that this is allowable if it is medically practicable. "Is it licit to use the pill' as an extra safeguard during the infertile period? That is to say that the woman is quite regular and uses the 'safe' period, but nevertheless wishes to take this anovulant pill as a sort of double insurance. This question seems to have no meaning

because if the cycle is regular there is no ovulation to suppress. It is suggested, once again by some medical sources, that it could have the opposite effect. It could delay the ovulation and upset the regular rhythm. However, if a doctor thought it medically useful it could be used. "May a woman, in order to have a child, use this pill to temporarily suppress ovulation? In this case the pill becomes what it was spoken of in its earlier stages. Not an infertility pill, but fertility pill. It is used for a certain time in the hope that when its use ceases, the woman may successfully have a child. The answer to that is—it is permissable.

Abnormality? "Then we come to the really difficult one — the suppression of ovulation during lactation,_ that is during the breast-feeding period. This has given rise to a lot of misunderstanding. I'm sorry to say, and here again to start with. speaking as a priest, a moral theologian on the moral law, I must emphasise that it is not my business nor the business of any moralist to claim to SEE BACK PAGE

RECORD

DESMOND O'GRADY writes from ROME . . . Bishop Fulton Sheen . .

The Sadness Of Our Neurosis IN A CERTAIN UNIVERSITY, LABORATORY DOGS WERE KEPT IN TWO SEPARATE CAGES. In one were the dogs who still had fleas, and in the other, the dogs who had been dipped, washed and were without fleas. The experimenters discovered that the dogs with fleas were not nervous, because they had something to do—one might almost call it a purpose in life. The other dogs without fleas howled and screeched and, in general, created a problem of canine delinquency. They were bored. The body is directed towards the expenditure of energy, and the restlessness of the dogs without fleas was a kind of regulatory mechanism for keeping their organism fit. One wonders if modern boredom has the same cause. It used to be that people were afraid of death. Now they seem to be afraid of life. The absence of goal or purpose makes a life very much like a squirrel in a cage. The first example of this in literature is "The Plague," by Albert Camus. It is the story of the way in which Dr. Rieux combats a plague. He spends himself and is spent serving the afflicted— building laboratories and crematories, for which he is praised. But he knows that the plague goes on and the bacillus is hidden in clothes and furniture, and will break out again. The conclusion is—suffering is constant through life and without meaning. In another novel called "The City Beyond the River," a writer symbolises the meaninglessness of the world in the analogy of two factories—one takes big rocks and stones and grinds them all into infinitesimally small pieces. Then they are shipped to another factory where they are all baked together again. After that process, they are sent back to the factory to grind them up once more, and the process continues endlessly and meaninglessly. The Reverend Robert Eliot Fitch, Dean of the Pacific School of Religion, in Berkeley, California, has made a profound analysis of this hopelessness in modern society in this work entitled "The Self. Centred Self." One finds it in the novels of Francoise Sagan, who makes a sophisticated salute to sadness. Dr. Fitch says that those who feel sorry for themselves are the chest-clutchers, and they belond principally to an affluent society which alone can afford the indulgence of self-pity. But to those who are not immersed in this despair. there is actually more hope than there would seem at first glance. Despair can actually be the beginning of a tremendous amount of hope, and then becomes what might be called ''creative despair." When a man recognises that he is nothing, then he is already on the way to becoming everything. The essence of Christianity has never been that of optimism about man left only to himself. That is why the Psalmist said: "What is man that Thou art mindful of him?" But it may be asked: If man does not recognise anything beyond himself, how can he be helped? The answer is: Every man has a "hole in his head." By this is meant that no matter how much he attempts to keep entirely to himself, there is an opening into which saving influences may pour from God, if one but asks for help. NJ,"

T IS TO BE HOPED THAT THE VATICAN WILL SOON PUBLISH THE STATE PAPERS RELATING TO THE SECOND WORLD WAR, AND PARTICULARLY THOSE REGARDING ITS RELATIONS WITH NAZISM.

Professor Toscano, who occupies the chair of international law at Rome University and heads the commission for the publication of Italian diplomatic documents, expressed this hope at a recent symposium in Rome on "The Holy See and the victims of Nazism." Professor Toscano pointed out that other States had published documents relating to the war, and that it was possible to build up a limited but clear picture of the Vatican's relations from what was already known. He went on to say that this picture needed more detail, but he did not need to spell out the reason — that the Holy See, and particularly Pius XII, is under accusation since Hochhuth wrote "The Vicar" and that documentation is needed to answer back. Even at the moment, according to Professor Toscano, the main lines regarding the relations between the Holy See and Nazism are clear. The can be summarised as follows: The Holy See was one of the -very first victims of Nazism; It was the first State to oppose Nazism; Its initial attempts to aid the victims of Nazism were abandoned when the victims complained that the interventions merely resulted in a worsening of their conditions; It continued in its attempts to aid the persecuted in a more discreet manner.

AID THROUGH MUSSOLINI OSCANO prefaced T his appeal for the

publication of Vatican documents by saying they would show that the Vatican had done far more for the victims of Nazism than anyone imagined. He said that indirectly. through Italian diplomatic documents, t h e story of the Vatican's aid to Jews could be pieced together.

The Vatican had asked Mussolini to help the Jews and through him much aid

was given, particularly to the Jews in France. By contrast, attempts to induce

Hitler to modify his policies only led him to make them more drastic.

pointed out that the Holy See was quite ineffective in its attempts to help the 200 priests who were in Dachau and Mathausen concentration camps. The Pope turnto the Italian Minister for Foreign Affairs for help in this matter because the Holy See was "powerless to obtain any change in the conditions" of the imprisoned priests. He recalled the Nazi reaction to Pius XI's 1936 encyclical, "Mit Brennender Sorge" (With Burning Sorrow), A note was sent to each German embassy throughout the world saying that the Vatican wanted to set the world against Germany, and that it had broken the world front against Communism. When Hitler visited Rome in 1938, Pius XI left the city for Castel Gandolfo because he could not bear to see the swastika triumph in the city of the cross. The German Ambassador to the Holy See complained to Cardinal Pacelli about an anti-Nazi speech by the Archbishop of Chicago, but all he had in exchange for his trouble was a detailed series of questions as to what the government intended to do about the persecution of the Church in Germany.

DISCUSSED STATEMENTS HE late President

T

Kennedy's father, at that time U.S. Ambassador to Great Britain, spoke with Cardinal Pacelli about Hitler's Rome visit and the pro-Nazi statements of the Cardinal - Archbishop of Vienna Innitzer. Cardinal Pacelli was of the opinion that the Viennese Cardinal's statements must have been made under duress. These were some of the reasons why, on the election of Cardinal Pacelli as Pope in March, 1939, Hitler ordered that the customary congratulations be sent, but that they were not to be expressed warmly.

All Professor Toscano's examples were based on State papers and he turned to evidence supplied by Sumner Welles to show that Pius XII in his last 1940 meeting with the German Minister for Foreign Affairs, von Ribbentrop, strenuously but vainly attempted to obtain a mitigation of Nazi persecutions in occupied territories. At the conclusion of his talk, Toscano said that those who have accused Pius XII of falling short of his responsibilities as regards Nazism do not accuse him of similar shortcomings

regarding Communism. Yet although Mussolini, in June, 1941, and Roosevelt, on two occasions in 1942, appealed to him for a condemnation

of Communism, he did not meet their requests.

the that replied He Church had already made its attitude clear: that he was the head of a neutral State; and that any comment would be given a political interpretation. Monsignor Alberto Giovannetti, of the Vatican Secretariat of State, also spoke at the symposium. He recalled many of the episodes of the war, including that of the last interview between Pius XII and the Italian Ambassador Alfieri, who, on Mussolini's instructions, complained about the telegram of solidarity which the Pope had sent to the leaders of Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg when they were invaded by Germany. The Pope took the accu sation that he "was unfriendly towards Italy" with calm: "We have absolutely nothing for which we must reprove ourself," he told the ambassador, "and we have no fear of going into a concentration camp."

He recalled that at Christmas, 1942, and in June, 1943, Pius XII condemned racial persecution.

There is an apparent contradiction in many discussions on the subject of Pius XII's response to the Nazi persecutions — those who say he did not know about the atrocities conflict with those who claim he did not want to make public condemnations which would aggravate the plight of the victims. This is a point which could be clarified by publication of the documents, but Monsignor Giovanetti suggested that although Dachau was in operation from 1933, there was no cle?.* information regarding the nature and extent of Nazi persecution. He said that Pius XII decided that only those on the spot could calculate how fierce would be the reprisals

against condemnation, so that the local pastors should decide what steps were to

documentation before they can be fully considered. And even when documentation is complete, it alone will not answer the most profound questions.

If the Pope had spoken, the concentration camps would have been crueller, the Church would have been attacked even more violently in Germany, and the conscience of the German people would have been troubled.

Monsignor Giovanetti concluded by saying that a violent protest by Pius XII in 1943 would not have saved the life of one Jew. This testimony by two qualified men shows the complexity of the problem when it is related to its historic context. It does not answer all the questions on the subject, but at least points to the need for more

He further said that the Vatican was afraid of reprisals which would put out of action the Vatican Radio, which was almost the only means of contacting many of the bishops.

Pope's Journals Published V ATICAN CITY: The spiritual journals of Pope John XXIII, described as perhaps unique in world literature, will appear soon in bookshops of many nations. Entitled "Diary of a Soul," the book traces the spiritual development of the late Pontiff in his own words, from his early years in the seminary until one year before his death in 1963. Giacomo Cardinal Lercaro, Archbishop of Bologna and former confidant of the Pope, told a press conference here on March 11 that the book is an "extraordinary document." He called it "a confession so lively, so sincere, so revealing of the depths of a soul as has rarely been the case in literature." The book will appear in Italy next week. Publication rights have already been granted in the United States, Canada, England, Germany, France and Finland. Arrangements for editions in Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese and Dutch are being completed. The book contains the full text of notes Pope John made for his own edification from the age of 14 to that of 81. Nuns copied the text from a stack of notebooks the Pope left his secretary, Monsignor Loris Capovilla. Scholars then checked the text against the originals. Cardinal Lercaro said it was the first time a Pope had bared his innermost thoughts to the world in simple private notes instead of in the solemnity of pontifical documents. He said the book is the journal of "an open soul which seeks the will of God, but seeking His will in obedience ." He said the Pope's writings show an "evangelic simplicity" and constitute "a singular encounter of intimacy with the soul of the Pope."

Pope Cites Reunion Aspect Of Council VATICAN CITY.—POPE PAUL VI TOLD 5,000 PILGRIMS, WHO CAME HERE FROM TRENT TO COMMEMORATE THE 400th ANNIVERSARY OF THE COUNCIL OF TRENT, THAT THE SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL IS SEEKING A SOLUTION FOR THE DIFFICULT PROBLEM OF THE REUNION OF CHRISTIANS, WHICH WAS LEFT UNSOLVED AT TRENT. The Pope celebrated Mass at the main altar of St. Peter's on Laetare Sunday. After reading the Gospel, he spoke at length to the assembled pilgrims, paying tribute to the history and the faith of the northern Italian city of Trent, which was the seat of the 15thcentury council held to meet the challenge of the Reformation. Linking t h e Tridentine council with Vatican II, the Pope said that both stressed a "stupendous fact." That fact is, he said, "the mystery of the faithfulness of the Catholic Church to Christ, her Founder and Master." From this faithfulness, the Bishop of Rome continued, there comes a sureness in the essence and guidance of the Church and "the certainty that her teaching is valid today as it was yesterday and as it will be tomorrow; that adherence to her doctrine and discipline will not render thought barren. that it will not sever it from the understanding and acquisition of all that modern science produces and possesses . . ." STIMULATES THE CHURCH The Pope continued by saying that this mystery of faithfulness provides "for loyal and fruitful dialogues with intellectual and spiritual trends of our times, and stimulates the Church to pour forth in expressions which are ever new because they are always sincere and lived, the inexhaustible

riches of truth which faith guarantees for us in the divine and religious field." Pope Paul said that the spirit of the Council of Trent "rekindles and strengthens that of the present Vatican Council, which is linked to it, and from which it begins to deal with old and new problems which then remained unsolved, or which arose later." The relationship between the two council is clearly demonstrated, the Pope said, by the "difficult question which arose at the Council of Trent, but which found no solution there— that of combining again in the same faith and in the same charity, with the Christians whom the Protestant reform separated from this heart of unity (Rome). The city of Trent had been chosen to facilitate the meeting, to act as a bridge, to offer the embrace of reconciliation and friendship." The Pope noted that although this was not accomplished by Trent, nevertheless it "will have to become the symbol of this desire ( for unity) to day, today more than ever, the deep, imploring, praying, patient

desire. With the firmness of her Catholic Faith, she (the Church) will have to open a door, not set up a barrier; not end a dialogue but open it; not reproach errors, but seek virtues; not wait for him who has not come in four centuries but seek him out fraternally. "This is what the new council, in continuation of the old, intends to do, with the help of God."

Much To Do

ROME: There is still so much work for the Ecumenical Council to do that it would be "extremely difficut" for it to finish in less than four sessions, according to Archbishop Lawrence J. Shehan of Baltimore. The prelate said, however, that it is not an impossibility for the council to end with its third session. "It will depend to a great extent on how perfectly the commissions do their work." Archbishop Shehan made his comments here after taking part in a two-week session of the Secretariat f o r Promoting Christian Unity.

And entering the sepulchre, they saw a young man clothed in white, who saith to them: "You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified; He is risen, He is not here; behold the place where they laid him."

To Publish Missal THE Benedictine monks of the new St. Canute's Priory in Copenhagen have announced plans to publish a Danish missal to aid youth in understanding the essentials of the Eucharistic celebration. The project would help fill the void which has e .Isted in the past five years —since the missal for the Danish laity has been out of print. The community, whose prior is Father Augustine Stock, 0.S.B., also has plans for a Danish Catholic hymnal.

Priest Is Expelled THE Haitian government has ordered the deportation of Father Yves Bajeux, C.S.Sp., Haitian-born philosophy professor at St. Martial's minor seminary in Port-au-Prince. The expulsion order for the Holy Ghost Father came less than a month after the Haitian regime suppressed Rond Point, a review for young Catholics, of which the priest was in charge. Rond Point was banned shortly after Haiti expelled all 18 Jesuits serving in the country on February 12.

FU JEN UNIVERSITY IS OPEN AGAIN. THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY, CONFISCATED BY THE CHINESE COMMUNISTS IN PEKING 13 YEARS AGO, WAS OFFICIALLY REOPENED ON MARCH 1 IN A SUBURB OF TAIPEI, CAPITAL OF FORMOSA.

By Father JOHN C. KNOTT

The Meaning Of Man

Present for the ceremony was Father Harold W. Rigney, S.V.D., who was rector of the Peking university when it was seized by the- communists and who spent four years as a Red prisoner on the Chinese mainland. Father Rigney is now provincial of the Divine Word missionaries in the Philippines. Fu Jen University actually opened its doors to a freshman class of 450 last October, but the official reopening was delayed until the start of the second semester. It was rebttitl through aid largely supplied by the West German government. Additional support came from the late Pope John XXIII and from Richard Cardinal Cushing in the United States.

EAST GERMAN COMMUNISTS ARE STEPPING UP THEIR 4 ATHEISM INDOCTRINATION FOR YOUTHS IN THE LIGHT OF REVELATIONS THAT PREVIOUS TRAINING HAS NOT BEEN VERY EFFECTIVE. A survey in the mining town of Au revealed that of the 100 young people who had undergone the "youth initiation," a substitute for First Communion or Confirmation, only 34 had given up their church membership. Catholic and Protestant youths continue to attend church services and receive the sacraments even when they belong to the communist party. The East German regime has decided to follow the lead of Moscow and intensify its indoctrination training. Spies have been told to report on youths who still go to church. IVINIP#4.#0 M

Pope Names New Patron ST. PAUL has been named the patron saint of the Cursillos de Cristiandad, a programme of instruction and apostolic action popular in Spain, Latin America and the United States. St. Paul was proclaimed the new patron by Pope Paul VI at the urging of leaders of the movement. Published in the Catholic Action magazine in Madrid, "Ecclesia," the papal brief states that "this method of Christian teaching, which already extends to a large number of Spanish Catholics and those of other countries, has brought forth abundant fruits; a Christian renewal of family life in conformity with divine law; a vitalisation of parishes and a faithful observance of duties, private as well as public, according to the dictates of conscience."

Speaking at the 17th World Health Assembly in Geneva, Dr. Wilson Fadul pointed out that in newly developing nations most of the energy used in production is human muscle power. "Thus any measures that contribute to increase the rate of population growth are beneficial to us," he said. Dr. Fadul said that nations which have achieved their industrial revolution have experienced a slowing birth rate. As a result, he said, economic and social conditions place natural checks and balances on the rate of birth. lItllIllIIllI lIIIIIIIllIIIIIIllIIIIlIIIllIIIIlIIIlIIIIIlIll

THERE is a male way of thinking MANLINESS- and of choosing. There is a manly intuition as there are male emotions.. The things that seem important to a woman the man is oftentimes unaware of. On the other hand, he can get excited over a football game which to her seems meaningless. He can get discouraged over a setback in the pursuit of a goal which had never seemed too important to her from the beginning. His sexuality is an integral part of his personality. In his manliness he is made to the image and likeness of God. He will live his life, pursue his love, achieve his successes and accept his failures, give honour and glory to God and in the end accept union with God, as a man. He will live for all eternity with God in heaven, among other ways, in and through his sexuality. It is as a man that he will love and be loved by the Trinity. It is as a man that while living on earth he will reflect the creative love of the Father, the r edemptive love of the Son and the sanctifying, healing love of the Holy Spirit. Through his sexuality he is called to create with t he Father as he has been created by Him. In marriage it is his vocation to initiate life with his wife. These two give the human matter. It is God Who animates and transforms their mutual gifts into the mystery of another human being.

THAT child is part of the man and part of the woman and in a sense part of God. The gifts of creative paternity continue to be made in the perfecting of the order of creation. The child born with an infinite capacity to be loved receives from the father the answer to his basic hunger. The father is there to encourago and guide, to teach and to lead, to perfect and purify the image and likeness of God which makes of each child such a singular and awesome mystery. He is there also, in his manliness, as the vicar of God to his wife. He has received from the Father half of the human gifts of-life and love. He gives them back to God in the love he has and shows for his wife. An essential part of creation is the perfecting of airther personality. "Come with me and be my love," are the words of the poet. They also offer the real challenge to sexuality. To return to God a better lover of Him in his wife and with her to send back to Him mote lovers in their children.

I t may be expresed in other ways — from passive unconcern at Mass to active involvement, from a liturgy understood by priests to the people's worship.

The Constitution on the Liturgy is revolutionary, partly because it decrees a thorough reform of the services of worship, partly because it brings the whole Church abreast of the Biblical, catechetical, ecumenical and theological movements of the past few decades. To take one example, the picture of the Church as a legalistic, authoritarian society is bypassed. The Church is seen as a community of love, as an assembly of worshippers. The centre of Christian worship is the celebration of the Eucharist, holy Mass. According to the council, this is the height towards which all the other activities of the Church lead. It is the source and starting point for the entire Christian life of the faithful.

Mysterious

THIS description of holy Mass is far removed from the routine and hurried celebration that is still common—and in which the mystery of God's great deeds in His people is not revealed but made mysterious. The description also shows how the council preferred the authentic language of the Bible to the technical catechism formulas and the abstract terms of theology. In the concrete, the Pope and the bishops of the council decided that the whole Mass should be simplified— "Elements which, with the passage of time, came to be duplicated, or were added with but little advantage, are now to be discarded; other elements which have suffered injury through accidents of history are now to be restored to the vigour which they had in the days of the holy Fathers, as may seem useful or necessary." This reform of the Mass prayers and rites, now under way with the appointment of a new commission by Pope Paul VI, may involve cutting down the Offertory prayers, restoring the Eucharistic prayer or Canon to its former effectiveness, solemnly proclaimed aloud, and improving the announcement of God's word. None of this is change for the sake of novelty, but for the sake of meaningful genuine worship.

THE

Mark

Church is always young, always alive. Its renewal and reform affect people in different ways. For some, change seems to lie a harsh renunciation of the past, even though the council has explained the Christian Faith and its purposes in the very words of holy Scripture. For others, including the college of apostles, the council's first achievement is "a sign of the providential dispositions of God in our time, as a movement of the Holy Spirit in His Church . . . a distinguishing mark of the Church's life, indeed of the whole tenor of contemporary religious thought and action." Above all, the Constitution on the Liturgy fulfils the vision of Pope John XXIII, that renewal of the Church might be the first step towards the unity of all who believe in Christ. As a divine institution, the Church is without spot or blemish. As a human institution, made up of sinful men, the Church may be unattractive and incomprehensible—in fact the vast, vast majority of men are unaware of, or are indifferent to, the Church. The Church is not afraid of the present or of the future. It welcomes growth and progress. The people

Exercise Of Priestly Office HE directives adopted by • T the council for this work

of reform indicate facets of Catholic worship that have been neglected and now need to be re-established, if in fact as well as in theory the liturgy is to be "considered as an exercise of the priestly office of Jesus Christ" by all His members. First, the communal and hierarchic nature of the Christian liturgy is to be stressed. The Church is the sacrament or sign of unity. It is defined as "the holy people united and ordered under their bishops." This must become evident, much more evident, in the ways of worship—the priest presides and leads, but the people have their full part. Next, the very act of worship is a lesson and a teacher. The Constitution on the Liturgy expresses this by setting down rules for future reform "based upon the didactic and pastoral nature of the liturgy . . . For in the liturgy God speaks to His people and Christ is still proclaiming His Gospel. And the people teply to God both by song and by prayer." This is why the rites of worship should be "short, clear, and unencumbered by useless repetitions . . within the people's powers of comprehension." This is why the council calls for a radical change in preaching, drawn "mainly from Scriptural and liturgical sources," why the language of the people will be introduced after many centuries of divorce between nave and sanctuary. Finally, the bishops adopted a principle of adaptation, so that there may be flexibility and diversity in the liturgy from place to place. Only God and His teaching are unchanging. Human in-

RECORD

Pope Paul VI And The Holy Shroud Of Turin By FATHER W. FREAN, C.SS.R. HIS HOLINESS POPE PAUL VI RECEIVED IN PRIVATE AUDIENCE A GROUP OF DIRECTORS, REPORTERS AND JOURNALISTS OF THE CATHOLIC PERIODICAL "IL NOSTRO TEMPO" ON SEPTEMBER 21 LAST YEAR. In the course of this audience, which was reported by the principal newspapers, gifts were presented to His Holiness. Conspicuous among these was a positive photograph of the Holy Face of Jesus, reproduced from the Holy Shroud of Turin. The photograph was set in in an artistic frame of gold, protected by an outer covering lined with red velvet. The Rector of the chapel of the Holy Shroud, Don Pietro Borga, was invited-to make this presentation to the Supreme Pontiff. Paul VI delivered an inspiring address to all the members of this assembly in which he spoke of the noble mission of the Catholic journalist. When he was presented with the gift of the Holy Face of Christ from the Shroud of Turin, he uttered words calculated to stir deep emotion in the hearts of all lovers of Our Divine Redeemer. His impressive words are certain to give great joy to everyone who has been moved to deep devotion and love of Our Saviour by the imprints of the Face of Jesus and the sufferings of His Passion, impressed on the precious Shroud that enfolded His body after His death on Calvary. So we repeat them as he spoke them: "Ah, and here is the treasure of Turin! . . . I still remember the emotion I experienced when, in 1931, I had the joy of seeing the Holy Shroud. . . . It was precisely on the evening of May 16. . . . For this gift my gratitude to you is great. I shall treasure it dearly, and it will recall to me the profound spiritual emotion that I always feel in the presence of this photograph. Thanks, and thanks again." The newspapers in the headings of their reports, spoke of "The Joyful Wonderment" -- the marvellous joy—of the Holy Father in the presence of this touching image of Our Saviour, bequeathed to us by Christ Himself as a parting gift and a memorial of His great love -- "The Treasure of Turin."

The Holy Shroud, with its authentic image of Christ suffering for love of men, makes its strong appeal not only to Catholics, but also to many who are still outside the true Church, and are longing to be reunited in their Father's House — one fold under one Shepherd. At the present time, especially, when Pope Paul is appealing to all Christians for unity of Brotherhood in Christ, we welcome those ardent words which add his name to the long list of Popes who have spoken so beautifully of the Passion of Christ as depicted on the Holy Shroud, and have recommended this devtion to the faithful. These words of Pope Paul VI, spoken shortly after his coronation, recall the joy and emotion that Pope Leo XIII showed when the first photographs by Secondo Pia were presented to him in 1898; and the memorable words spoken by Pope Pius XI, when he had the more photographs of perfect Enrie in his posssession. He had been speaking of the Blessed Virgin Mary. But he presented pictures from the Holy Shroud to a group of Young Catholic Actionists. "These are pictures," he said, "of her Divine Son. One may say that they are the most thought-provoking, the most beautiful, the most precious that one can imagine. They are, in fact, from that object

which still remains mysterious, but which has certainly not been made by human hands. One can say that this is now proved—I refer to the Holy Shroud of Turin. "We have used the word "mysterious" because this holy object is still surrounded by considerable mystery. But it is- -certainiy a thing more sacred than any other. Indeed, we can now say that the genuiness of it is proved in the most positive way, even setting aside_ all idea of faith or Christian piety. It is not a human work" (Osservatore Romano, September 7, 1936), Again Pope Pius XI said: -We have personally followed the studies on the Holy Shroud, and we are convinced of its authenticity. Objections have been made, but they are groundless."

The Story Of The Hoy Shroud COR those who may not be acquainted with it, we shall briefly relate the epic story of the Holy Shroud. When Christ died on Calvary, He was surrounded with many bitter enemies, and a few faithful friends.

osity; and so Joseph's brave deed was rewarded in a marvellous way. For that sheet in which he wrapped Our Divine Lord's body on that first sad Good Friday evening is not only, as Pius XI assures us, the most precious possession of the Church (the Sacraments themselves of course excepted), but it has become one of the marvels of modern science. This is because the priceless value of the Shroud, as we know it, was revealed to us in its fullness only a few years ago. That sheet bears upon it a most beautiful image of the Face of Our Saviour—a Face made still more beautiful and more dear to us by its nobility and patience in the midst of the extreme sufferings He underwent for us. And it bears the imprints, marked in most extraordinary detail, and in His own Most Precious Blood, of the scourging, t h e crowning with thorns, the mockery, the crucifixion, and the spear thrust that opened His Sacred Heart after death.

The Confirmation THE history of the Holy Shroud cannot be related

on the linen, that are now so clear, had previously appeared so dim and confused. A commission was set up in the University of Paris to examine the photograph. The leading spirits among these experts were Professor Yves Delage and Professor Paul Vignon, the former an agnostic in religious matters and the latter a fervent findings Their Catholic. were as follows: • The two images on the Shroud are negatives, like the negative images that appear on a photographic plate. When photographed, they produce a perfect positive picture. • The Winging Sheet bears upon it the frontal and dorsal images of a man who has been scourged, crowned with thorns and crucified, and his side has been pierced with a lance. • Without any doubt the images represent the body of Jesus Christ bearing the marks of the Passion as it is depicted in the Gospels: • The bloodstains on the Shroud are stains of real human blood, attested as such by medical experts; the arterial blood can be distinguished from the venous blood; the blood which flowed during life from that which flowed after death when the body was taken from the cross; ,he blood clot is distinct from the serum. These blood stains are not negative images like the other images. They reveal a knowledge of the circulation of the blood centuries before it was discovered by Harvey. • The cloth itseslf is of ancient texture like that found in ancient tombs and in use at the time of Christ. It bears not the slightest sign of paint or artist's brush. The details are too tiny to be possibly produced by an artist's brush, and

could have been produced only by natural forces working under certain conditions as in a photograph. They are certainly not the work of man.

Photographs IN 1931 the Holy Shroud was again • exposed for veneration, and this time 12 special photographs were taken by an expert photographer named Enrie. These clearer photographs only confirmed all that had been previously revealed. So Professor Scotti of the University of Genoa was perfectly correct when he wrote in 1939: "No one who thinks scientifically now denies the authenticity of the Shroud." As we gaze on these picttures which Pope Pius XI has called "the most thought-provoking, the most beautiful, the most precious that one can imagine," we too will experience "the profound spiritual emotion" that Pope Paul VI tells us "he always feels in the presence of this photograph." Those who want to become better acquainted with this marvellous source of devotion anti love of Jesus Christ, can obtain their knowledge in a very cheap book, "The Winding Sheet of Christ," obtainable from The Majellan Press, Redemptorist Monastery, Ballarat, Victoria. It has 12 pages, with 23 photographic plates procured from Commander Enrie of Turin.

His name was Joseph of Arimathea, and the Gospel tells us that he was a just man, who was also seeking for the Kingdom of God, and that he had taken no part in the deliberations against Our Lord Jesus Christ. At a time when even the Apostles were overcome by fear, Joseph showed how strong was his love for Christ by going to Pilate and boldly asking for His body, that he might give it honourable burial. Being a wealthy man, he bought rich spices and a long sheet of precious linen in which to enfold the body of Christ. This sheet was about fourteen and half feet long and about three and a half feet wide. The body was placed on the sheet with the head in the centre and the other part of the sheet was drawn over it. It is well for us to remember in our service of Jesus Christ that we are serving a Master Who will never be outdone in gener-

Built by Bartrams of Sunderland, she is a sister ship of the "Canterbury Star" and the "Montreal Star" buiit at the same yard in 1960 and 1963 respectively, and the yard is now working on yet another similar ship, "Halifax Star." The "America Star" has three holds forward, and one hold aft of the machinery space, with associated tween decks. Back of the holds and tween decks are insulated and arranged for the carriage of frozen cargo, except the forecastle and No. 1 upper tween decks. Chilled meat lockers have been provided port and starboard in No. 2 and 3 upper tween decks.

How often do Catholics find they are asked questions about the Faith, by non-Catholic friends and acquaintances and are unable to answer to the satisfaction of the enquirer. To help in this problem, Public Talks on the Faith are held each Thursday evening in the city. These talks are primarily intended for non-Catholics who are interested in Faith, so if you have friends and acquaintances who would like to hear Catholic Truth and Doctrine explained, bring them along. Visitors commit themselves in no way-financially or religiously. Opportunity is given for questions and answers. A cordial welcome is assured to all visitors. Talks commence at 8 p.m. each Thursday evening at:. Meeting Room (Basement), All Saints Memorial Centre, 77 St. George's Terrace,

From Overseas

Two Jesuit priests have recently returned to Aus• tralia after completing post-graduate studies overseas. They are Father B. J. Fleming, S.J., and Father J. Begley, S.J. Past students of St. Thomas More College will remember Father John Begley, first Dean of the College from 1955 to 1961 and Lecturer in Classics at University of W.A., who returned on March 15 to Australia from Rome. A past pupil of Marist Brothers' Assumption College, Kilmore, Victoria, Father Begley has recently completed his studies in Rome on Strawson's philosophy and has gained the degree of Doctor from the Pontifical Gregorian University. He is a Master of Arts of Melbourne University. He is now taking up the post of Professor of Philosophy at the Diocesan Seminary, Corpus Christi College, Werribee, Victoria. Father B. J. Fleming arrived in Melbourne on Sun_

day, March 15, to take up his appointment as Dean of Newman College within the University. Father Fleming, third son of the late Mr. D. R. Fleming and of Mrs. D. Fleming, of Sydney, is an old b3y of Marist Brothers' College, Darlinghurst. He is an Honours Graduate of Melbourne University, where he later took out the degree of Master of Arts in the School of History. He ha* for the past five years been engaged on a major study of the life and achievements of Thomas de Bradwardine, the 14th Archbishop of Canterbury. This work, which Father Fleming pursuea in London, Oxford and on the Continent, has been accepted by the ancient University of Louvain for their highest historical honour, the Doctorate of Historical Sciences. Father Fleming's doctoral dissertation is now being published in the University's Collection de Travaux d'Histoire et de Philologie.

Members of the Catholic Men's League will assist the Redemptorist Fathers in conducting their fete in aid of the new Retreat House on Sunday, April 5, by manning several stalls. In addition to the usual popular game which is conducted by the League to aid other causes, a China Shy is being introduced as well as other stalls which League members are manning. The president of the Central Division expresses the desire that every member take an active interest in this function as the building of a retreat house is a major step forward in the retreat movement which is to the spiritual betterment of every Catholic man. All members of the C.M.L. attending should be present as soon as possible after 12 o'clock (noon) on the Sunday in order that each stall will be properly manned throughout the afternoon as the fete commences at 1 p.m. Any man that can possibly a ttend on the Saturday afternoon to asssist in the erection of stalls and preparation of the grounds is urged to do so.

Informed Reports Say Patriarch Athenagoras Is Gravely Ill

MISSION NOTES

INFORMED MEMBERS OF THE ORTHODOX COMMUNITY IN ISTANBUL BELIEVE THAT PATRIARCH ATHENAGORAS IS SUFFERING FROM LEUKEMIA. It is also said that he had refused to follow the treatment prescribed by a doctor brought especially from London to assist him.

By Rev. Father W. J. Foley

* FORMOSA — MISSION CHAPEL SERVES AS A SCHOOL FOR DEAF AND DUMB WU FENG SCHOOL for the deaf and dumb is a very humble institution, but 16 children are finding a new of life there. On his mission trips to the 23 villages that make up the Wu Feng mission, Father John, the missionary in charge, noticed a distressing number of deaf and dumb children for whom nothing was being done. There seemed to be nothing that he could do about it either. Then one day, while he was building a small mission chapel in the countryside, the idea came to him of converting it, on weekdays, into a school for the deaf and dumb. "Finding a teacher for the school was not easy, but the one that was eventually found,- says the misionary. "is a gem. A deaf mute himself,. he is very well educated. very zealous and extremely cleVer." Books and charts that are used in Government grade schools were bought. At present 16 pupils, of whom three are girls, are being taught reading, writing and arithmetic, also hygiene and the sign language. Thanks to hearing aids, four of the boys of the school are learning to talk. According to present plans, the older pupils (15 or 16 years of age) will be kept for about three years and the younger ones,will be given a regular six-year course of studies. * TAIWAN — CHINESE CATHOLICS SHUN

SIGN OF JUDAS"

ROTHER BENZCE, S.J.. who has become famous as B the Director of St. Joseph's Carpentry Shop, designs

symbols, intended to be instructive as well as decorative, for the churches, altars, confessionals and church furniture used in Taiwan. In the large church in Hsinchu he placed carvings on the confessional doors of the "Keys of St. Peter," "The Cock Crowing," and "Judas' Money Bag." Sunday after Sunday the priest entered the confessional with the "Sign of Judas" on the door and waited in vain for sinners. Finally, the Catholics told the parish priest: ''Father, no one wants to go to Confession under the 'Sign of Judas:' you had better change it."

G OD LOVE

For some weeks now the Patriarch has not granted scheduled audiences. Groups and individuals who have come from other countries with appointments arranged before their departure have found they cannot even see his All Holiness. Previously he granted frequent audiences. Patriarchate officials explain that he is slightly indisposed with influenza, but that he has a severe doctor who has ordered that no one can visit Athenagoras. The Patriarchate officials regularly promise that the Patriarch will return to duty in a few days. At present he is confined to bed at the Halki theological seminary on the island of Heybeliada in the Sea of Marmara, just over an hour's ferry trip from Istanbul. The cold, damp weather has caused a minor influenza epidemic, but the nonofficial reports on Athenagoras' illness say that the doctor's severity is due to his opinion that any activity would hasten the crisis in the blood cancer affliction. EXTREME FATIGUE The Patriarch, despite his age, is usually a man of boundless energy who has little need of either rest or sleep. However, he showed signs of extreme fatigue on r eturning from his Holy Land appointment with Pope Paul and he has not recovered since then. If the reported diagnosis of leukemia is correct, his days are numbered. He is said to have refused treatment with the thought that he is solely in God's hands and if the end is near he will offer his suffering

It is hard for the comfortable to feel sympathy with the distressed: it is hard for the popular to be one with the unpopular in the slums, the sick beds and the leper colonies. Where are our scars?

P ATRIARCH ATHENAGORAS t or the sake of Christian unity. The silence surrounding the Patriarch recalls Rome as Pope John's fatal illness advanced. Istanbul seems to have adapted the Roman saying to the Patriarch: "A Pope is never sick until he is dead." Athenagoras recalls Pope John in many ways—both aged men with more initiative than young men, both impatient of for. malities and, most important of all, both with a burning desire to see that all are one in Christ. Pope John's successor has continued his policy of rapprochement with the Orthodox Church, and especially with the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Istanbul. Would the good relations between the Catholic and Orthodox Churches be hindered or reversed if Patriarch Athena goras were to die shortly?

Reports Denied SAIGON ( Vietnam ): No bishop in Vietnam has contemplated an evacuation of Catholics to foreign countries and nobody is organising such a movement, according to Archbishop Paul Nguyen Van Binh of Saigon. In an official statement on March 3 the Archbishop denied reports of an evacuation of Catholics allegedly being organised by the bishops. He issued the denial as chairman of the Bishops' Conference of South Vietnam. He said the rumours "have no foundation, are harmful and contribute to sowing doubt and disunion among our compatriots, Catholic and nonCatholic." The reports may have originated in the uneasiness felt by many Catholics, especially those who fled from the north in 1954 and 1955 to escape communism. in recent Developments months have led individual Catholics, particularly the heads of families, to inquire anxiously about the possibilities of emigration. It is also suspected that communists may be trying to dishearten the Vietnamese Catholics, who have always been among their strongest opponents.

W.A.'s Only 18 Hole Par 3 Course

DESPITE the small field of only six runners, the St. Leger Stakes, run over 12 furlongs at Ascot last Saturday, provided keen betting and an exciting finish. This season's Derby winner GOJON again showed that staying is his game by coming from a long way back to beat APTOBE by a short half-head with the favourite RAC'S IMAGE inches away in third place. As the two horses were so wide apart it was hard to tell which had won, but a terrific final burst by Gojon won him the prize. The colt's owner now has eyes on the Eastern States and, while Gojon is a most promising stayer, he is going to meet much stiffer opposition there.

E ASTER CUP ( 12 FUR. )

A British double-decker bus, weighing over seven tons, is lifted easily and steadily by a sideloader claimed to be the largest in the world. This is the new British-made Lancer "2500" series sideloader with a lifting capacity of 25 tons. The first of the new series, designed to meet the requirements in heavier industries of bulk moving in limited areas, is going to the steelworks of Empresa Nucional Siderurigica at Aviles in Northern Spain. A Lancer sideloader has also been ordered from the British firm for the Essen, Germany, steelworks of Alfred Krupp. There it will be used to handle hot steel billets. There are three models in the new series with lifting capacitis of 55,000 pounds at 36 inch load centre, 45,000 pounds at 42 inches and 40,000 pounds at 48 inches. Lift weights vary between eight feet, twenty-four feet and the sideloaders have a laden travel speed of up to 25 miles per hour. ' Photo

For the third successive week at Ascot, Graham Aistrope has ridden a winner at double odds. This week it was BURRELL, who drifted from 5's to double those odds, which was not surprising, as suggested by his lack of form. Not an easy horse to ride, he was well handled by Aistrope, who in his present form seems sure to ride more winners.

Resuming racing after a spell, unbeaten LITTLE the carried RODERICK heavy impost of 9.10 and won the six-furlong Attfield Handicap in hollow fashion. Bookmakers, and most racing folk, too, thought that the task might be too great —which made it possible to get as much as 5-2 about his chance:- A good price in the light of his excellent record. Due to his two stylish wins recently, COUNT APT was always a short-priced favourite, and while he ran a very ordinary race, it could prove unwise to drop him as he has the ability to do much better. Racing for the first time, NIK NOT surprised by running third in such a class With field of youngsters. experience, this filly seems sure to win races. She owes her unusual name to spelling her owner's name (Tonkin) backwards. This is becoming quite a habit now when naming horses.

Sent out favourite, GREENTOI, who was meeting open company for the first time, failed badly. Coming to the turn, he appeared to be going well, but then suddenly weakened. Maybe he was short of a hit out as it is a few weeks since he last raced. • LIKES A JOURNEY When SWEET SAGA beat UOMIE in the 101-furlong Autumn Handicap, s h e proved that last week's Oaks win was no fluke. She is a promising staying filly likely to win more races. The second horse was a little unlucky as more than once he was disappointed for an opening and only got clear when the race was almost over.

E i FIT HORSE As he had to carry 9.1 and stand up weight to older horses, TALPEROR'S effort t o comfortably win the Mile Novice Handicap was no mean one for a three-yearold. Whereas he looked dogpoor when he last raced, he is now in good shape and on his run could live up to the high opinion part-owner Jim Cumming has always held of him. The owner's doubt last Saturday was that the mile might prove a little far. The form of those who finished behind the winner was far from promising.

SOFT SPRINGS ( third ) ran a good race, but seems to lack the necessary dash to win one.

A SHOCKER

Racegoers stood openmouthed when the photo showed that VILLAGE IMAGE had nosed EL CANTRO out of winning the seven-furlong Mill Point Handicap (2).

MASTERPIECE OF CHRISTIAN BELIEF LL

RITTEN: War Requiem. , Decca, 115/-.

Owing to my absence last yc ar,Imissed this issue, but work is of such importi...ace that it must be noticed dI can think of no better ti .ie than Easter week for ti.a review. Written in 1962, it is too ec rly yet to prophesise its fE.t;e, but it seems to be 0: .e of the very few masterp_ ices of this century. Towel mg above Britten's other w aks like a Mount Sinai, it deals with war and death iE the profoundest terms Britten uses the Latin text oi the Requiem Mass and Sc me of the war poems of M lifted Owen, a First World ar victim- who indicted a C. iristian civilisation for ft- :ling to use Christianity. T. .e Mass and the poems are sc rnetimes in contrast, Sc metimes intermixing and :ally in unison. ETERNAL TRUTH file futility, the despair, of senseless death in a usewar is transmuted by tL serenity and hope of the R-quiem Mass so that the w Jrk ends with confidence in God's love and mercy. It is strange that de-Christian is :d England should produce such a profound statemint of eternal truth and it is even stranger that this sec has been a best-seller everywhere, most notably in the U.S.A. Or is it so strange? It might be that the world of materialism, so brave and new to our fathers, has quickly learned that man cannot live by bread alone; perhaps this work and its reception is another sign of that "new spring of mankind" acclaimed by the late Pope John. FINE CAST To create a synthesis of an anti-clerical poet and Catholic tradition, giving sincere expression to each, shows a bold imagination remarkable even in Benjamin Britten. To use the three leading British, German and Soviet singers and,

moreover, to make the Russian the Christian advocate is imaginative beyond belief. Galina Vishnevskaya sings her parts of the "Dies Irae" with such intensity that she must have understood the text and to have had feeling for it, though not belief. That she was allowed to sing shows a liberality in Soviet officialdom unthinkable in Stalinist days. As I have remarked be-

Its contents are aimed at the middle-aged who want to escape from both Beatle and Beethoven. Lots of variety with three major groups, Schonherr's Austraian Dances, Victor Herbert's Favourites and a medley of old favourites like Sweet Adeline. There are also a halfdozen short pieces.

Easter Plays

T

HE Merry Society chose two plays, each with an Easter theme, for their March productions which were presented in the Assembly Hall last week. They were August Strindberg's "Easter 1900," produced by Paul de Lano, and "The Robe and the Thorn," by Conrad Carter, produced by Adrienne Shea. Carter's one-acter was a very simple little work, but set the audience in the right mood for what was to follow. In all, it was ably acted— as Hammond Margaret Tara, a Jewish maiden, was charmingly buoyant and the best of the cast of four. The plays written by August Strindberg around the turn of the last century show a major break from his earlier realistic works. Instead, he attempts to find a way of expressing psychological and spiritual realities—sometimes verging on the mystical. "Easter 1900" has ver3little action and what there is is powerful. The play is set in the living-room of a Swedish home around 1900. The action is spread over Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday. There is one major weakness in this production. While waiting for the dreaded creditor, Lindkvist, to enter the Heyst residence, the cast failed to create a true atmosphere of fear. They should have been kept in almost horrified suspense until Lindkvist entered at the significant moment. As Eleanora, Linley Jones was convincing. Her performance was studied and authoritatitve. Graeme Plummer's performance did him credit, but one feels he did not fully understand his role as Elis. Rhona Landquist was well cast as Mrs. Heyst, but she should have made her character much more sympathetic.-,--D.T. WITH CHRIST THROUGH THE YEAR, by Bernard Strasser, O.S.B.

Still, these novelities may not be in vogue so soon and this reprint of a work of 1938, revised in 1958, is most useful. It is complete, without being comprehensive, nor has it the brevity of a dictionary, but it takes the reader through the general notions of liturgy, the cycles and season in the year, the framework and purpose in the common Masses, and some of the chief Feasts. This is a good book for classwork, libraries, or the interested reader. Symbols and diagrams are fine. —R.S.N.

HE WORLD PREMIERE OF ROBERT HELPMANNS AUSTRALIAN BALLET, "THE DISPLAY," IN THE ADELAIDE FESTIVAL OF ARTS, WAS GREETED BY A 15-MINUTE, 20-CURTAIN CALL FROM A WILDLY ENTHUSIASTIC AUDIENCE AND IMMEDIATE ACCLAIM FROM CRITICS. The ballet combines subtle decor by Sidney Nolan and music by Malcolm Williams with the style and craftsmanship of Helpmann. Mr. Helpmann has praised the Australian Ballet Company for its performance and expressed a pride in Adelaide and the Festival of Arts for presenting his ballet. BANKSIDE Productions are to present "The Cherry Orchard" for a ten to 12 night season at the Dolphin Theatre. This is a play about the passing of the old order in Russia, and the triumph of industrial civilisation over pastoral tradition. It will be produced by Jeana Bradley and the cast will include Neville Teede, Bill Dunst on e, Collin

O'Brien, Rosemary Barr, Jean Rule and Johanna Fewings. The sets will be designed by Maurice Jones, who will also be in the cast. THEATRE GUILD is to repeat its production of James Barrie's "The Admirable Crichton," following its successful season last year. The season will commence on April 16. Bookings are expected to be heavy as this play has been listed on the Junior syllabus. RUMOUR has it that the Graduate Dramatic Society is to have a new committee whose aim will be to give Grads a new face. There are promises of a series of new avant-garde plays—rarely, if ever, seen in Perth.

of the Beethoven. It began with a reasonably successful "Jupiter," although both clarity and cohesion were lacking in the finale. The new enlarged W.A. Symphony Orchestra was given a work-out with Bartok's "Miraculous Mandari n" Suite and the "Prometheus" symphonic poem by Liszt. Both are new to Perth and both are old, even the Bartok dating from 1919.

Talented Cast In U.D.S. Revue

A

NYONE who missed the University Dramatic Society's revue, "Nothing On," at the Dolphin Theatre will be the poorer. Despite whatever the title may imply, the revue, which was arranged and presented by Lindsay Moore, had a c ounteance which glowed with warm, good-natured humour. It was rarely sick or nasty in anyway. The authors of the script made the occasional sideswipe at different aspects of our society, and my only criticism is that they could have hit harder. Any bawdy jokes were made obvious but fairly innocuous. The talented sextet of interestingly dissimilar actors worked in harmony to make this revue on a very high level indeed. Individually, one must admire Vic Marsh for a fine piece of mimickry in his send-up of "Buttons" from the recent Playhouse pantomime "Cinderella." Merrilyn Bosworth's suprising brand of humour, particularly as a dance hall "regular," contrasted with her cool sophistication in one or two of her solo numbers. Kay McDermott proved to have a flair for comedy and satire and near her best in a very pretty number, "The Rainbow Song." Another high-scoring item in which the whole cast excelled was the melodrama "Lily of the Snowstorm." The show ran at a slick pace from the clever opening number to the effective finale. This was made possible by a minimum number of sets and properties and the efficiency of the stage manager, Geoffrey Milne, and his crew.

DEATH AND JUDGMENT

RADIO REPLIES

. . . By THE REV. DR. RUMBLE, M.S.C.

N.

K.B., GREENACRE, writes: Hebrews 9:7 says: "It is appointed unto men once to die and after that the judgment." But could there not be some exceptions to that? I mean that the Bible neither absolutely denies this, nor does it confirm it.

Christianity SI Women

R.: You are quoting what the Blble affirms. The proposition contains two statements: that all men must die once; and, secondly, that the next experience awaiting them will be their judgment.

' Protestant," Condobolin, N.S.W.: In his book, "Why I Am Not A Christian," Bertrand Russell says: "We sometimes hear talk to the effect that Christianity improved the status of women. This is one of the greatest perversions of history that it is possible to make." R.: As a Prodestant, you are urging whatever you think will be embarrassing for Catholics, and you apparently think anything Bertrand Russell says must be very telling, just because it is Russell who says it. But Russell does not know enough of history to know when he himself is peverting it. The Anglican Bishop R. C. Mortimer, in his book "Christian Ethics," points *lit that St. Paul's teaching that in Christianity there is neither male nor female but that all though their human nature are equally children of God; and baptised equally members of Christ; off-sets any ideas of male superiority and women's inferiority. There may be diversity of function; but in all essentials there is equality of status; and women are certainly not the mere instruments of men's lusts. That would scarcely suit Bertrand Russell, as we saw last week. But Bishop Mortimer is a professing Christian and, though a Protestant, you might discount Christian testimony. Listen, then, to Lecky, the rationalist. In his "History of European Morals" he says that vast change in the status of women must be manifest to all after the unlimited license of the pagan Empire was suppressed. He says that the absolute prohibition of sexual indulgence outside marriage the security of wives by the prohibition of divorce, the legal rights of guardianship of children hitherto reserved to men, and the inheritance rights of widows — these things enhanced women's dignity and status. % This rationalist historian even writes: "Whatever may be thought of its theogical propriety, there can be little doubt that reverence for the Virgin Mary has done much to elevate and purify the ideal of women and soften the manners of men." He adds that this gave rise to the "redeeming and en nobling features of the age of chivalry which no suc-

ceeding change of habit or belief has wholly destroyed." "WARPED OUTLOOK MONKS"

OF

Q.: "Monks," Russell writes, "have always regarded Women primarily as the They have temptress. thought of her primarily as the inspirer of impure lusts." R.: He doesn't know what monks think. He has never been one and is just guessing. Most monks owe the inspiration to embrace a religious vocation based on spiritual ideals to a good mother. Lecky speaks of the influence of the mothers of men like St. Augustine, St. Chrysostom, St. Basil, St. Gregory etc. Such sons of good mothers don't think primarily of women as the inspirers of impure lusts. Bertrand Russell, however, denies that lusts are impure and thinks of women as instruments for the satisfaction of them. "NATURE, BIRTII CONTROL AND CELIBACY" Q.: "Birth control," he says, "is thought wicked by people who tolerate celibacy because the former is a new violation of nature and the latter an ancient one." R.: Celibacy is not a violation of nature. Marriage is not, in the very nature of things, necessary for all men and women. There are many who have no oppor tunity of marriage, yet who live quite chastely. There are many who, for good natural reasons do not choose to marry; and others who for spiritual and religious reasons make that same choice. On the other hand, birth control by a contraceptive means, indulging in relationships intended by God to lead to the protection of children yet deliberately and positively frustrating them where otherwise they would be effective, against nature and the order intended by God.

As a general proposition, that all men will die is certainly confirmed in Romans 5:12, where we read that "as by one man sin entered the world and by sin, death: so death passed upon all men;" and again, in 1 Cor. 15:21-22, "By a man came death . . . and in Adam all die."

-vIRGINITY HIGHER THAN MARRIAGE" Q.: "The teaching of the Church has been and still is," complains Russell, "that virginity is best; out this for those who find this impossible marriage is permissible." R.: Russell gives that as one of his reasons for not being a Christian, but he does not even understand Christian doctrine. With St. Paul, in Eph.5, the Catholic Church glorifies marriage as a Sacrament instituted as such by Christ and admits a true vocation to it. She does not underestimate it, as Russell does who discarded wives and took others, with no feeling of obligation to be faithful to any of them. On the other hand, the Catholic Church does not unduly exalt celibacy. She

declares that it is the lower choice if it be for selfish motives in order merely to avoid tying oneself down and shouldering ,the burdens and responsibilities of providing for a family. But, with Christ and St. Paul, she declares celibacy to be the higher choice if it be for higher spiritual motives, not judging marriage as evil, but in order to belong wholly to God without division of interest in a life of prayer and of service to mankind. All these reasons put forward by Bertrand Russell for not being a Christian are based, not on anything wrong with Christianity, but on something very defective in himself.

Catholic Marriages And State Laws "SAPERE AUDE," Greenwich: By what right does the State ignore, in a divorce case, the plea from the still practicing Catholic "that this court has no jurisdiction over the marriage as it was a contract made before God in God's House according to God's own Law"? it.: Firstly, when we speak of the "State," of course, we mean Australia generally, which is subject to the Federal uniform "Matrimonial Causes Act." Secondly, apart from all else, it cannot be said that civil law and its courts of administration has "no" jurismarriages over diction wherever and according to religious rites whatever they may be celebrated. The Catholic Church admits that, since marriage has social as well as religious significance, the sacof marriages ramental Christians as well as the merely natural matrimonial contracts of non-Christians, are to a certain extent subject to the laws of the State. Even two Catholics, as Australian citizens as well as Catholics, have to comply with two sets of laws, those of the State and those of their Church. Thirdly, Catholics hold that the State has no real power to dissolve the bond of a valid marriage in the sight of God. But the State does not claim the power to do that. It claims to know nothing of the mind of God on the matter, and that it is concerned only with administering its own secular laws which include civil legislation for the granting of a divorce in the case of a marriage previously recognised in civil law as valid. Fourthly, in one case, paragraph (m) of Section 28, civil law grants the right of a guilty partner to obtain a civil divorce from an innocent partner after five years of separation, even against the will of that innocent partner; but subsection 1 of Section 37 of the Act leaves it to the discretion of the Court to refuse a decree of divorce if for any reason such a decree would be harsh and

oppressive to the respondent. In 1961, Mr. Justice Nield was reported in the "Sydney Morning Herald" as refusing to Percy Cley Taylor a divorce from his wife applied for on the grounds of paragraph (m) of Section 28 of the Act, the judge giving as one reason for his refusal that if the marriage was broken up against her wishes and religious convictions, the situation would be unquestionably harsh and oppressive for her, since she would be compelled to describe herself as "divorced," with all the opprobrium of the community that would be involved. But even that refusal of a decree because of the religious convictions of the wife concerned only the administration of State law on the civic level, and involved no claim of the State to jurisdiction over the marriage as it existed in the sight of God and according to the law of God. The State admits that aspect of marriage, to be quite outside the sphere of its own competency.

Two apparent exceptions to this law of death could seem to be Elias and Henoch (4 Kings, 2:11; Gen. 5:24), who were taken from this world without having to die; but many biblical scholars and theologians see in the Apocalypse 9:7 a prediction that they will return as the "two witnesses" in preparation for the Second Coming of Christ and that they will be put to death. Another possible exception is found in St. Paul's statement that those who are still living when the Second Coming of Christ occurs will be taken up But alive to be always with Him (1 Thes. 4:16). even these exceptions would make no difference to the fact that we have but one life of probation in this world, however it ends. Our Lord clearly indicated that when, referring to His own life-work for our redemption, He said: "I must work while it is day, for the night cometh when no man can work" (Jn. 9:4). Nothing in all this, however, supports your idea that souls of people who have lived previously and died might be re-incarnated in other bodies and come back to live further lives in this world; so that St. John the Baptist could have been the prophet Elias, of the ninth century B.C., living again under the new name of John. But there are reasons folttie impossibility of that; namely( that Elias did not die; that the soul of St. John the Bapist like that of all other human beings was created for the first time at the moment of his conception; and that the doctrine of re-ificarnation is irreconcilable with the Christian religion.

D ESPAIR The Sunday picnickers had picked the farmer's fruit and his flowers, and their car was full of plunder. Pointing to an unexplored highway, they enquired of the farmer: "Shall we take this road back to the city?" "You might as well," said the farmer, "you've got almost everything else."

O VERDUE "I was wondering when Father Prendergast is coming back to the parish?" said Mother. "How long has he been away?" "Twenty-two weeks," said little Jackie suddenly. "How do you know?" asked Mother and Father simultaneously. "Well," said Jackie, "last Sunday Father Murphy said it was the twenty-second Sunday after Prendergast."

From Page One speak with any authority about a medical theory or the result of any medical research. That's a scientific thing undertaken by

-specialists or the medical body as a whole. It is our business merely to take this information which they provide, assess its value, then apply the moral law to it." Dr. Sullivan went on to say: "Now here is the difficulty—it is known from common experience that after childbirth, during the iieriod of lactation ( giving milk), that nature suppresses ovulation. Exactly how this works, I understand, even doctors cannot yet explain fully. but it does happen. But nevertheless it also happens occasionally that a woman ovulates and even conceives again during the period of lactation. "Now here is the prob-

lem," Dr. Sullivan said, "as simply and clearly as I can put it. There is an opinion, maybe you could say a growing opinion, in the medical world that not only does nature intend this period of infertility but moreover that ovulation during this period indicates some deep-seated pathological condition—it is truly an abnormality, which could possibly be remedied by the use of the anovulant pill. "If that is so, if we could say already that it is established beyond doubt, then moralists could perhaps say that this anovulant pill coull be used lawfully for that purpose. But here is the catch—so far that is something that has not been fully proved.''

Doctors Uncertain Dr. Sullivan said that there was no unanimity in the medical world as to whether ovulation during the lactation period was truly abnormal or not, nor as to how long the infertile period after childbirth should be. He said that even supposing that one could judge ovulation during the lactation period to be abnormal, there were theologians who said that you could use the pill licitly, but there were others who still said no, because what was intended was really to

prevent pregnancy, which was not licit. 'lir • •
