PENALTIES ALONE REMOVED Reception Was Act 01 Deception FROM CREMATION CEREMONY
LONDON: ANNE BIEZANEK, refused Communion at her own parish for running a local birth control clinic in defiance of Shrewsbury diocesan authorities, received the sacrament at noon Mass among crowds of communicants at Westminster Cathedral.
DR.
The Congregation of the Holy Office has mitigated the penalties regarding cremation, but stresses that the Christian concept of burial is still to be protected as thoroughly as possible. Competent sources in the Vatican said an instruction has been sent to the bishops of the world on the subject of cremation. It was stressed, however, that it was not designed as a wholesale authorisation to substitute cremation for the traditional form of Christian interment or burial.
First Time In A Century
LOST IN CROWD
Traditional Burial Still Remains It was pointed out that the .Church has always held that the bodies of deceased Catholics be interred. This is in accordance Christian with ancient practices, it was stated, and is also more in accordance with the doctrine of the resurrection of the body at the Last Judgment. It was also noted in the instruction that cremation objectively speaking is not contrary to faith. However, some people, particularly in Europe, have recremation — and garded may still regard it—as a demonstra.tion of atheism or a rejection of the teaching of the Church. For such as these, the Church has laid down severe penalties if they desire cremation for themselves or arrange for ethers to be cremated.
Present Law' It was pointed out that the anti-religious aspect in cremation is nowadays less violent. In some places and under certain circumstances it is required either by national custom or by serious reasons of a hygienic or economic nature. Therefore, becaust of these reasons, the penalties regarding cremation have been mitigated. However, the penalties still retain their full force for those who would practise cremation for anti-Catholic motives. The instruction does not specify what penalties are Involved or precisely how they are mitigated.
The Old Decree A decree issued by the Holy Office on May 19. 1886. though it did not say cremation is intrinsically wrong or may not be used under certain circumstances, did condemn and forbid the practice in general, specifically as a response to efforts of Masons and other sects—particularly in Italy—in founding societies to popularise it,
Another cathedral priest said: "About three thousand come to Mass and Communion each Sunday. You don't ask if each is in the state of grace. You presume that, and therefore one just cannot comment further." Referring to the doctor's claim that this was a sign that the head of the English Hierarchy, Archbishop John Heenan of Westminster, "has given Catholics their freedom," another priest of the cathedral staff said: "The onus was on the priest saying Mass whether he should refuse anyone Communion. It has nothing to do with Archbishop Heenan. That is a law of the Church."
most of them with the intention of thus publicly denying the Christian teaching on the resurrection of the body. Catholic circles in Holland are reported to have understood that while cremation remains forbidden under the present instruction, the wish to be cremated should no longer constitute a reason for refusal of the Sacrament of the Sick and Viaticum.

Less Violent Present Church law specifically forbids the following -- cremation of a human corpse: formal cooperation (intentional) in the act of cremation; disposition for the cremation of one's own body or that of another; membership in societies advocating or promoting cremation; imparting sacramental absolution to a person who, having ordered that his body be cremated after death, refuses to retract such an order; and granting Church burial to such a person upon his death.
Dr. Biezanek, 36-year-old mother of seven and wife of a Polish ship's steward at Wallasey, Cheshire, jubilantly claimed vic,tory at an excited pavement press conference, after a six-month battle with the Wallasey clergy. But cathedral authorities said later "there were about two hundred people receiving Communion at the noon Mass and Dr. Biezanek was not recognised by the priest giving Holy Communion. The priest was cathedral chaplain Father Victor Guazzelli.
solor
The doctor was given much publicity in the news media, but jubilation appeared to have given way to anger when she returned home on Monday to Wallasesy. Archbishop Heenan, absent from the cathedral at the time, said later she was guilty of "an act of moral cowardice."

In vain does one seek to escape in a human is not the same as sex these limitations by saying that in a pig. Sex is both a function and the universe is characterised by a communication. As a biological nothingness. If this were so, why function it is similar to that of is this nothingness something that animals. As a communication, it is feared, that haunts, that pushes implies another person and is victims on to psychological couches. worlds apart. As Hamlet said: "It is this very Eros might become meaningful dread of something after death when the purpose of the function which puzzles the will and makes is to become united with another us rather bear the ills we have person.

planted nature to be ushered into the mysteries of life, the woman is often condemned to remain on the threshold as a tool or an instrument of pleasure alone and not as a companion of love. Two glasses that are empty cannot fill up one another. There must be a fountain of water outside of the glasses in order that they may have communion with one another. There must also be outside of each a love wider and greater that binds them together. That is why lovers often speak of "our love" as if it were more than the sum of the love of each. as a function may SEX speak the language of love, but actually it is not the love of another person, but the love of self. The ego is put into another person in order to be loved. It is not the "thou" that is loved, but the "I" that is in the "thou." Helmut Thielicke says the taboo has shifted from sex to death: "Nobody must tell the dying man that he must die and funeral cosmetics put the mask of life on the corpse. Man can no longer cope with the finitude. He no longer knows how to fill this finitude with meaning. and, therefore, he must comfort himself with the pretence of a loving corpse, the illusion of deathlessness; he is compelled to prolong an existence that remains un-; fulfilled. He tries to rub out the boundary line of death with lipstick." The wolf offers nothing when he kills the lamb. Functional sex makes hungry where most it &pislies, for a person needs a person, and a person is a person only when seen as an image of God. 0441p4s#0,

NEW DELHI, INDIA: THE CATHOLICS OF INDIA HAVE JOINED THEIR HINDU AND MOSLEM BROTHERS IN MOURNING THE DEATH ON MAY 27 OF PRIME MINISTER NEHRU—"A NOBLE SOUL WHO GAVE OF HIS BEST." AWAHARLAL J The head of the Catholic Church in the country, Cardinal Gracias of Bombay, had flown to alerian V Paris in connection with the international Eucharistic Congress in his See next November just before Nehru died of a heart attack at the age of 74. Unable to r eturn in time for the funeral next day, Cardinal Gracias was represented by Auxiliary Bishop William Z. Gomes of Bombay. From Paris, however, the Cardinal issued a statement saluting Nehru as "a valiant man, a noble soul who gave of his best according to his lights without relaxation for the well-being and progress of India and for the cause of universal peace." Labelling the Prime Minister's death "crushing news," Cardinal Gracias said that Nehru was adored by the Indian people and loved them tenderly in return. He added: "About two months ago I had the privilege of personally taking him a letter from Pope Paul with gifts from the Holy Father and two medals of the Vatican council. With broadness of view in his sense of history he readily understood the mission of the papacy in the modern world." CORPUS CHRISTI The Prime Minister's funeral services here coincided with the feast of Corpus Christi, and prayers were offered for Nehru's soul at Masses throughout India. The country's churches also tolled their bells in mourning for the fallen leader. The Catholics of India in demonstrating their grief paid tribute not only for the man who had been a mainspring in India's fight for independence and the nation's top leader in the 17 years following. They also recalled his own frequent display of sympathy for the work of the Church in this overwhelmingly non-Christian country. India's Catholic community of six and half million constitutes only one and a half per cent of the population. But Nehru went out of his way to condemn antiChristian prejudice and affirm that Christians "are as much Indians as anyone else" and "must have full opportunities like others." Nehru, whose government established diplomatic relations with the Holy See in 1948, less than a year after Indian independence, was an avowed admirer of the late Pope John XXIII. In August of 1961, he arose in the Indian Parlia-
PANDIT NEHRU ment to tell opponents of the government's five-year plans for economic and social development that they should read Pope John's social encyclical Mater et Magistra. Viewing Pope John's approach as "in favour of socialisation," he said: "The Roman Catholic Church in social matters is slow to move from its original moorings. But if the Church itself and the Pope

POPE MOURNS Pope Paul VI sent the following message of condolence on the death of the Indian Premier to President Radhakrishnan Sarvepalli of India: "We offer Your Ex411ency and the beloved people of India our heartfelt condolences on the passing of your Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Jawaharlal Nehru, and our deep sympathy on the loss suffered by his death, particularly by his immediate family. We ask God to bestow on Your Excellency and the people and government of India copious graces of consolation and comfort in this bereavement."
Church Land Subject To Reform Law LIMA. PERU: HURCH lands in Peru were specifically declared subject to the new agrarian reform law passed by the Peruvian Congress and signed into law by President Fernando Belaunde Terry.
C
The Catholic Church is the only institution mentioned by name in the new law, which will condemn certain lands and reimburse owners with government bonds payable over ten years at a price fixed by the government, Article 15 of the new law says: "The rural lands of the Church, convents, monasteries and religious associations, whatever may be their creed, will be affected in their entirety. The only exceptions will be areas dedicated exclusively to teaching, social assistance, scientific investigation and to the support of those institutions. This exception will not apply to lands badly cultivated." COMPLICATED LAW The law, signed May 21, is so long and complicated that it. is possible that it could be years before the Church lands would be directly affected. The law contains 248 articles, some of them of more than half a newspaper column in length.
Contact
go that far, it shows how far the world has gone." And a year ago the Premier told a Catholic bishop that he had obtained a full text of the new peace encyclical, Pacem in Terris, and was studying it whenever he had the opportunity. The Prime Minister had pledged government help in arranging for the Eucharistic Congress next November. In the letter given him by Cardinal Gracias here last February, Pope Paul VI thanked Nehru for "the great many kindnesses you have shown to the Hierarchy of India by facilitating the preparation" for the congress.
The Catholic Church in Peru has been urging the passage of an agrarian reform law for many years. Joint pastoral statements of the Peruvian Bishops as well as the pastorals of many individual bishops have supported plans to divide the country's farm lands more justly among an appreciably larger number of citizens. The new law attempts to divide principally the "nonproductive" and "poorly cultivated" lands, while leaving alone the highly productive plantations of sugar and

But the extreme nationaorganisation, whose list rapid growth and aggressiveness have made it an important political power, actually stems from a nonreligious study group founded in the 1930's and has been repudiated by the nation's traditional Buddhists. Strongly materialistic, it promises members health, wealth and happiness, and appeals mainly to the poor. It is organised on military lines, has a cell system similar to communism's, and carries on an intense propaganda campaign against all other religions, which its members must regard as enemies. To gain converts and power—it now claims the adherence of ten per cent of Japan's people — it has used threats and violence. Although it has largely abandoned the use of violence, Japanese religious and political leaders continue to express alarm at its increasing growth. Although it is still an infant compared with the ruling Liberal - Democratic party and the second-place Socialists, t h e established political parties resent 'a group that claims to be a religion but has used what some critics have called Nazi-like methods to elect members to the national legislature and many local government posts. They fear a sect that turns each convert into a guaranteed v ote. Religious leaders deplore its use of religion for political ends, and the orthodox Buddhist sects have formed an association to oppose it. Sokagakkai, or Creative Value Society, had its beginnings in the pre-war era 410,4 , 4.4.441.
By FATHER A. W. BRYSON M.S.C. as the Soka Kyoiku Gakkai, or Value Education Society, which was devoted to economic studies. The pre-war society's value system has been taken over by the new sect and is based, it says, on "benefit, virtue and beauty." Money is value, it states, endowing men with virtue, beauty and power. The pre-war society was founded by Tsunesaburo Makiguchi in collaboration with Jesei Toda on November 18, 1930. Both men were then grammar school teachers in Tokyo. Its initial membership was 62, growing to 3,000 members by 1942. OTHERS EVIL Its religious colouration became evident only in 1936, when membership was restricted to the followers of Daishonin, who Nichirin founded a sect in the 13th century that claimed to be the true form of Buddhism. Following this restriction of membership, Sokagakkai followers had to denounce as evil all other religions, including State - supported Shinto. It taught: "Nothing but Nichirin . . . can save Japan. Unless you discard your heretical faith, the nation will come to ruin." This led to its suppression during World War H. Referring to this teaching, the sect's English-language the Seikyo publication, News, stated recently: "The government ignored their and Toda) ( Makiguchi warning and as a result Japan was completely defeated, as prophesied.

RECORD
a
Sokagakkai's continued intolerance towards other religions resulted after the war in the arrest of Makiguchi, Toda and a large number of the sect's leaders on charges of blasphemy. Makiguchi died in prison the year he was gaoled ( 1946), having lost all his followers but Toda. Makiguchi's death spurred Toda to devote his years in gaol to a study of Nichirin's doctrines and he saw the practical possibilities of an amalgam of Nichirin's politico-religious emphasis and the value theory of the Soka Kyoiku Gakkai. On his release from prison, Toda began rebuilding the old society and renamed it Sokagakkai. NEW ORGANISATION Until 1951, Toda concentrated on organisation. He set up the society on a military basis with military ranks, thus ensuring strict discipline. Then he began a nation-wide campaign to win over the poor and unemployed, partly by his famous technique of "kegi" ( persuasion by changing form), which in practice often took the form of threats and even physical violence. Sokagakkai also began its work among union members, teachers and students, and its youth corps with disciplined male and female divisions was made the spearhead of the sect's political and propaganda efforts. Sokagakkai's first success in the political field came with the election of 53 of its members in the local assembly elections of 1955. Stepped-up political activity resulted in the election of three of its members to the House of Councillors, the upper chamber of the national legislature, in 1956. It campaigned so successfully that in the spring of 1959 six more members were elected to the upper house and 700 were voted into local assemblies. Three years later, in 1962, 15 Sokagakkai members were elected to the House of Councillors, making it the third largest party in the body. CONCERN Sokagakkai's fast rise has deeply concerned Japan's religious leaders, and orthodox Buddhists have been particularly outspoken in their opposition to the sect. Daisetsu Suzuki, noted Zen Buddhist scholar, declared: "If Sokagakkai, so- called 'True Buddhism,' practises intolerance—and it does—it cannot be true Buddhism, because Buddhism is the continuous striving towards absolute love and absolute wisdom. These are its two vital features. There is no room for intolerance and aggressiveness . . . When Sokagakkai people claim their's is the only religion with value, they contradict the basic tenets of Buddhism. Sokagakkai is not Buddhism at all." Dr. Shobun Kubota, vicepresident of Rissho University, said: "The principle of Buddhism is to restrain man's desires, such as sex, hunger, wealth and fame. But Sokagakkai promises the possession of these desires. It uses men's weaknesses as a tool for its own expansion. It has the same characteristics as Nazism. Finally, it is a corruption of Buddhism."

V ATICAN CITY: O official confirmation or denial is available from Vatican authorities of re-ports that the Holy See and Tunisia have concluded a treaty for the turning over of most Catholic churches there to the government.
N
The reports from Tunis said that most Catholic churches in that country will be turned into museums or libraries by midJune. While no official comment is available, it is understood from competent diplomatic sources that "para-accord" —that is, an agreement on a text still to be discussed and not yet binding on either party — was reached on May 22. It is known that representatives of the Holy See and Tunisia have been holding discussions over the past year to resolve various problems of the Church in Tunisia resulting from the independence of that country. MANY LEFT One of the major problems today is the ultimate disposition of the Catholic churches and other Church property in that country. After Tunisia became independent of France in 1956, hundreds of thousands of residents of French or Italian extraction, mostly Catholics left the country. Today, Tunisia's Catholic population is approximately 40,000. This drastic reduction of the Catholic population has meant that many churches and other institutions that formerly served flourishing parishes no longer function. There has been considerable pressure from the Tunisian government to turn these properties over to the civil authorities for other use. Diplomatic sources stated that Church officials are faced with the alternatives of either acceding to government requests voluntarily or of being ultimately forced to do so by the passage of new laws. It is understood that in terms of the para-accord, Church officials have stipu-
sev. ice)
lated that those churches to be turned over to the government are to be used for ''noble purposes," serving as museums or for other cultural functions in keeping with the sacred character of the buildings.

School Plan For Sydney Archdiocese SYDNEY:
HIS EMINENCE CARDINAL GILROY-, Archbishop of
Sydney, has asked Catholics of the Archdiocese of to subscribe t3,000',000 initially to finance ydney S the Catholic schools system. in changes
Calling the crisis in Catholic education in Australia "unprecedented in history," the Cardinal said the revision was essential "to r eaffirm our basic aim to provide a Catholic school, both primary and secondary, for every Catholic child and to maintain the highest educational standards both in religious and secular subjects." Cardinal Gilroy said his plan, contained in a pastoral letter read at Sunday throughout the Masses Sunday, on archdiocese May 31, would tax the generositiy of every Catholic, "extraordinary that but measures are necessary" to meet the needs of "an extraordinary situation of crisis." He said he was encouraged to proceed by priests, Religious and laity alike. The programme will make all secondary schools within t h e archdiocese regional rather than parish schools and "to a certain degree" provide the same sti3ucture for primary schools. CRISIS OF SURVIVAL Citing a new plan of secondary studies introduced by an Act of Parliament in New South Wales a n d operative since 1961, the Cardinal said the Act "has imposed such additional burdens of providing more
buildings and more teachers that the overall challenge to Catholic schools now becomes a crisis of survival." The Act adds one year to all secondary courses, demands science facilities for all secondary pupils and requires a certain minimum enrolment, "commendably to provide for every child the type of secondary education best suited to different grades of intellectual ability and to diverse aptitudes," the Cardinal said. But this new system "has necessitated a large-scale expansion and reorganisation of existing Catholic secondary schools, as well as the establishment or development of regional high schools.' He cited other factors challenging Catholic schools rapid post-war expansion, a large-scale migration pro gramme, and "a healthy natural increase of population" — but characterised these as "a normal crisis of growth . . . to be accepted by a generous and religious people." The Catholic community has met this crisis, he said, and gone further in providing an "ever-increasing financial outlay for the training and salaries of secular teachers." Christian homes have been generous in pro-

But he said the crisis still exists, and that "we are in danger of losing our rich heritage." CONSIDERATION The Cardinal's plan calls for a quota to be set immediately for each parish, which will give "due consideration" to existing parish financial obligations. Part of the money collected will be devoted to the construction or extension of secondary schools in the region to which each parish is attached. Part will provide for construction or extension of both primary and secondary schools in regions which, because of rapid population growth. "are unable immediately to provide fully for their own needs." -The Catholic school system," Cardinal Gilroy said, "is the product of a conscientious conviction that the child is a moral as well as an intellie-ent being., that religion is an essential and integral part of his education and that his proper religious training requires not only formal lessons in religion but that such lessons be given in a school where religious principles p e rmeate all its processes in such wise as to give the school a genuine religious atmosphere." Referring to the Bishops. establishment of the Catholic school system in Australia 80 years ago, he said that today "the long chain of Catholic primary and secondary schools right through the land, built literally at the cost of milliorF of pounds. is ample justification of their judgment and their confidence." He added that the larr number of independent schools otner than Catholic "is an indication that many of our fellow citizens share this view."

By a near-unanimous decision, the convention approved a two-point policy statement prepared by the party's policy committee of which Mr. A. W. Munro is chairman. Before submission to the convention, the statement was approved in advance by the State Executive of the _Liberal Party. Another important aspect of the new policy is the recognition of "the continuing need for diversity in channels of education." The new policy of periodically adjustitng pupil allownew (under the ances scheme since the Scholarship Examination was abolished) is considered highly important in Catholic circles.

He took them into his mission compound where his Sisters fed and t reated them. Later he arranged for a military guard.

A LAST TRIBUTE WAS PAID IN OKAYAMA TO A NATIONAL HERO, DR. KENSUKE MITSUDA, A CONVERT DOCTOR WHO DEVOTED HIS LIFE TO FIGHT LEPROSY
IN JAPAN. Dr. Mitsuda invented in 1919 the "Mitsuda reaction," a method to ascertain the Hansen-bacilli of leprosy in the blood, after having founded the first national leprosarium which he directed up to his death on May 14. Dr. Mitsuda's efforts are credited for reducing the number of lepers in Japan to 15,000 at present from 660,000 in 1900. . .Dr. Mitsuda's life in some aspects paralleled that of Father Damian, the Belgian missionary who spent 16 years in a settlement of lepers on Molokai, in the Hawaiians and died in 1873, having caught the disease himself. Dr. Mitsuda, a great admirer of Father Damian, took the name of Damian when he was baptised in 1961.

They also attacked a railway line from here to Matadi the same night they bombed the churches. Two dynamite or plastic bombs exploded at the ultra-modern Christ the King Church at the end of evening Mass around 6.45, destroying a part of the wall near the south entrance. Cyrille Lemani, a Legion of Mary member, who was the only person leaving the church by that entrance, was killed. Damage to the church, served by the Divine Word Fathers, was very heavy. Blessed last year, it was a gift of the late Jozef Cardinal Van Roey of MalinesBrussels to Auxiliary Bishop Joseph Malula of Leopoldville. About two hours later, t wo more bombs destroyed part of the south transept of St. Peter's Church, staffed by priests of the Congregation of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The two bombs had been placed in ventilation ducts. The explosion, so violent it was heard throughout the city, also damaged walls and shattered window panes in the neighbourhood. Four persons were hurt, including a woman who was seriously injured. Following the explosions, Archbishop Felix Scalais, C.I.C.M., of Leopoldville, visited the churches, as did Congolese Interior Minister Joseph Maboti and Justice Minister Justin Bomboko.

11.1NILA: The new decree which shortens the Commix. nion rite formula has been hailed here as the restoration of a tradition dating the primitive to back Church. Father Paul Brunner, S.J., of the East Asian Pastoral Institute, said the decree of April 25 "restores a tradition which dates back to the beginnings of the Church." About the year 200 Al)., he said, Hippolytus wrote in Apostolic -Tradition, a liturgical book: "The bishop hands the Body of Christ to the newly baptised and says, ' This is the Body of Christ,', and they answer, 'Amen.' And when he hands them the chalice while saying, ' This is the Blood of Christ,' they answer, 'Amen.'" The Jesuit liturgist continued: "The restored Communion rite therefore links us with the Church of the Martyrs and with the numberless Christians through the world and throughout the centuries." Father Brunner said the longer formula came into use only in the 14th century and the priest took over the "Amen" of the faithful who became more and more silent spectators. He said, however, it was not "love of venerable traditions that moved the Church to restore the original practice but that the faithful may more actively and fruitfully participate in the sacrifice of the Mass and in the very act of Communion profess their faith in the sacrosanct mystery of the Eucharist." The "Amen" uttered by the communicant, he said, is a profession of faith, hope and charity, similar to St. Thomas's "My Lord and my God!"

Pope Calls For A Definition V ATICAN CITY: POPE PAUL VI HAS POINTED TO AN EVER MORE PRESSING NEED FOR AN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION: "WHAT IS THE CHURCH?" But the "immense and c omplex reality" which is the Church, he said, refuses to be hemmed in by "the t erms of a hasty definition." The Holy Father said the question, "What is the Church?" is not new, but has become "more urgent, VATICAN CITY: with greater need of an adequate answer."

"Miniature Concord"
Concern For Workers
VATICAN CITY: The Holy Father told a large special audience for the Italian National Liquid Fuels Board that the State has corporation always shown great concern for the religious and moral needs of its employees as well as for the professional and technical requirements of the petroleum industry. The Pope stated: "This large and organic vision of every need, including religious and moral needs, cannot but have a beneficial effect on the good order and proper running of activities of a purely technical nature, because — and this is the constant teaching of the social doctrine of the Church —it should never be forgotten that the subject of economic life is the human person, created by God and redeemed by Christ, with its spiritual problems and its daily responsibilities for the family and for education of children. "When these fundamental needs of the human person are providentally met, then secure foundations are also laid for the solidity and efficacy of his contibution to social life through his serene positive and willing devotion to the duty which is entrusted to him. Thus, technical progress proceeds side by side with the religious and moral development."

VATICAN CITY: PROBLEMS CONNECTED WITH THE "DIALOGUE OF THE CHURCH WITH THE MODERN WORLD" ARE AMONG THE MOST CRITICAL STILL FACING THE SECOND VATICAN ECUMENICAL COUNCIL, ACCORDING TO AUGUSTIN CARDINAL BEA, S.J. The German-born Biblical scholar who heads the Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity also expressed general satisfaction with the council's progress to date, particularly with the climate created by the discussions of the b,.shops. He outlined his views in an exclusive interview with the N.C.W.C. News Service. Cardinal Bea, speaking in terms of the critical problems before the council's third session, noted that there are already a number of schemata before the council, such as the schema on Revelation and on the Nature of the Church. "In addition to the questions which have already been discussed but not completed. I belie v e most critical the that problems that the council still has to deal with are above all the problems connected with the dialogue between the Church and the modern world." he said. As examples. he mention ed "the demographic problem, the problem of peace and many other contained in the well-known 'Schema 17' (which is devoted to the relation of the Church and the modern world) " He added that "in addition, there is the question of religious liberty, of rela tions between Catholics and Jews, which could possibly be treated together with the question of relations with monotheists and non-Christians in general. Last but not least, there is the question of the attitude towards the millions of men without religion, the victims of practical or theoretical at Asked how many more sessions of the council he thought might be necessary to complete the work, the 82-year-old Jesuit Cardinal said that to give a correct answer to such a question "it would be necessary to know many things which escape my knowledge and, in part, all human knowledge." VALUABLE TIME "However, I am convinced that everything possible must certainly be done to avoid taking up any more of the most valuable time of the shepherds of souls than is absolutely necessary—all the more so since the earlier

sessions already have helped the Bishop sufficiently to know the present situation of the Church and of the world." Cardinal Bea noted that "it is difficult to avoid the certain that impression questions could have been solved more speedily." But at the same time he cautioned that "it is necessary to consider also to what extent this would have been possible, in such a large assembly, without a certain infringement of the freedom of discussion." Evaluating the results so far of the council meetings, he said he felt that "on the whole they are satisfactory if we consider how much has been concluded, how much. has already been prepared in great part and, above all, considering how greatly the council Fathers themselves benefited from the discussions. "Indeed, it seems to me that 60 per cent at least of the results of the council consist in this usefulness which discussion offered to t he council Fathers and, as a result, also to their work." The Cardinal was asked whrtt he thought about the report that, if the third session is to be the last, the balance of the council's work could be done by postconciliar commissions and by mail. He replied: "I fully understand both the anxiety as regards the expenses connected with the council and, more especially, that of not
keeping the shepherds away from their flocks for too long a time. I do not doubt that certain matters can also be solved by mail or through post-conciliar commissions which would execute the directives and fol. low the intentions of the council." However, he added, "it is necessary at the same time to bear in mind also the great value of the live exchange of ideas in the discussions attended in person by the council Fathers. Correspondence by mail and commision meetings are not on the level of live meetings." PRESS COVERAGE Cardinal Bea indicated that he was not in favour of removing all secrecy of the council: "It seems to me that what has been done for the press during the second session of the councils sufficient. I do not believe that it would be useful simply to lift the secrecy of the council." Looking at the question of secrecy in terms of the history of past councils, the Prince of the Church added that it was "true that today there is probably no danger of a recurrence of the psychosis of the days when theological discussions were followed with the same passions as the circus games. "Nevertheless, we should not forget the grievous influence which the impassioned public -discussion on papal infallibility undoubtedly exercised on the discussion in the council hall during the First Vatican Council." And bringing the point up to the present day, Cardinal Bea asked pointedly: "Did not certain papers, during the second session of the Second Vatican Council itself set themselves up, with suspect zeal, as defenders of pontifical pr i mac y against the conciliar Fathers themselves?" RELIGIOUS LIBERTY Turning to the subject of religious liberty, a subject dear to the Cardinal's heart since it, was one of the five MR^

chapters on the schema on Ecumenism prepared by his secretariat, the Cardinal stressed that "I absolutely wish to respect the freedom of movement and of decision of the competent directive organs of the council." While pointing out that the arranging of the agenda of the council belongs to the various bodies named by the Pope, the Cardinal added that "nevertheless considering the fact that the second session of the council was concluded in the middle of a discussion of a schema of which religious liberty is a part, it seems logical to believe that this schema should be among the first on the agenda of the next session." He said he has no doubt that it will be discussed. "Furthermore," he stated, "religious liberty seems to be a theme so dear to the Church, and of such importance for our relations with non-Catholic brethren and, indeed, with Christians in general, that I do not doubt that it will obtain a very wide approval." In connection with this the Cardinal singled out the interest and support which the chapter on religious liberty has received from many of the American bishops. Asked for his opinions on the council's consideration and approval of the chapter dealing with the Church's spiritual relation to Juda. ism, the Cardinal said his thinking is the same as he had just expressed on the chapter on religious free dom "both as regards discussion and approval." Cardinal Bea further said he trusts that "in Schema 17 (the Church and the Modern World) there will be a firm though necessarily brief statement" regarding race relations. He said he thought such a statement should be in accordance with the solemn declaration of Pope John XXIII in his broadcast message of September, 1962, a month before the opening of the council," and also in accordance with the thoughts expressed on the matter in the council's first message to the world in 1962, at the first session.

SEX ..A PROBLEM? HIS IS A GOOD QUESTION. If sex is a problem, as frequently it is, it does not have to be. As someone once said, beneath every problem lies a. challenge. Anything which is seen only as a • problem will probably always remain just that. There is a sort of negative connotation to the very word. A problem is something to be solved or overcome, ignored or risen above, or just borne as a burden. is it rather difficult to use any of these Now approaches very effectively_ for any length of
time unless the first challenge of sex is faced. The reality of sex is that it exists. There are some people who try to ignore it by acting as though it were all a bad joke. There are others who sugarcoat it in a nursery-rhyme cuteness. "Little girls" are made of "sugar and spice and everything nice" . . . "Little boys" are made of "snips and snails • and puppy-dog tails." There are others who run in fear of it and live almost in a continual nightmare because they see it in a bogey -man distortion. Others have rejected it and live in a winter wonderland where all relationships are frozen into a motionless, still-life pattern. Still others pursue the will-of-the-wisp of sexual pleasure as though in it were to be found, if not at the present moment, then veetually, the answers to the basic hungers of the human heart. People either underestimate the power of sex and are shocked when it breaks loose, or they overestimate its potential and are disappointed when they do not receive the happiness from it they imagined they would.
THE reality about sex is not only that it exists, but that it exists as one of the two most funciamental drives in the human being. The strongest instinct is that of self-preservation, which causes one to cling to life even when there .seemingly is no hope. The name given to this instinct is extremely descriptive. It is designed to preserve the life that has been given.
the instinct for self -perpetuation. It is SEXtheisdrive beyond self-containment. It is the
desire to leave a memorial of oneself in the lives of others. It is a need, in a sense, for a sort of earthly immortality by creating new life like unto oneself but different as in a son or daughter. Or it is the urge to perfect and be perfected in an intimate relationship with someone of the other , sex. It is a means by which the deepest drive in a human being—that of union with another person— might be realised. It is a reflection of and a means to achieve man's basic and ultimate desire to be one with God.

And
CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA: MULTI-RACIAL audience of 2,500 overflowed the assembly room of the city hall here for a religious rally appealing to the government not to renew a law permitting police to hold anyone for 90 days without a trial.
A
The rally was sponsored by leaders of the Protestant, Catholic, Jewish and Moslem communities, including CaCatholic, Jewish and Moslem Cann of Cape Town. All speakers stressed man's God-given right to personal liberty and protection under the law unless proven guilty in a court. The rally included singing by Catholic and Anglican choirs, and readings concerning brotherly love from both St. Paul's letter to the Corinthians and from the Koran, the holy book of Islam. COMMON GOOD Archbishop McCann told the participants that while the authority of the State comes from God, it is limited by the common good of the community and by the prior fundamental rights of the citizens. "A prior fundamental right of the individual is his freedom," he said. "This freedom may not justly be taken away in an arbitrary fashion. A person must be proved guilty by reason of his actively being subversive of the common good." The rally had been announced several weeks earlier by the religious leaders when they first announced their joint appeal against repromulgation of the 90-day arrest law concerning security matters.

by the government if it is not to lapse on June 30. Their statement, which was read again at the rally, called the arrest clause "a tragic breach and negation" of the "fundamental tenet of justice that there should be no imprisonment without trial."
TITLE AND RANK ELIMINATED
VATICAN CITY: POPE PAUL HAS DECIDED TO ELIMINATE THE TITLE AND RANK OF CARDINAL PROTECTOR. s Abolition of the title, which has been in use for the past 700 years, has not been announced officially, but it is understood from well-informed sources that the Pope has decided not to appoint cardinal protectors of religious orders and congregations any longer. The decision was motivated by the Pope's desire to modernise the Church and its institutions and to free cardinals from too heavy burdens of ceremonies and extra work. Past practice has been for the Pope to name various cardinals the protectors of this or that order or congregation. Some cardinals today are protectors of more than a hundred religious families. For example, the list for Clemente Cardinal Micara takes up more than two pages of small print in the Annuario Pontificio, the Vatican's official directory. Duties of the office of protector include not only the celebration of various ceremonies for houses of the order or congregation protected, but also have required the protectors to intervene or intercede for their various groups with the administrative offices of the Holy See, particularly with the Vatican's Congregation of Religious.

"Tall Ships" Leave England On Race To Lisbon
TOKYO: HE communist Chinese press has launched a new, attack on "counter-revolutionary remnants" in church groups and warned they will be dealt with harshly by "dictatorial means."
T
The attack was made in the Peking newspaper, Kuang Ming Jih Pao, last March and has been translated in Tokyo. The paper said that religious people "still have contradictions with and are even hostile to the proletariat." It continued: "Politically and ideologically they are deeply influenced by imperialism and the reactionary classes within the country, and some of them are even unable to draw clearly a line of distinction between friend and foe. To varying degrees they doubt, resent and are dissatisfied with the party's lines, principles and policies. "A considerable number of them have expressed dissatisfaction with the increasing tendency of religion to decline as a result of the development of the socialist cause, and are trying by all means to expand the forces and influence of religion." "All imperialist elements," the paper said, "have now been driven from China."
But it added that "the imperialists, unwilling to admit defeat," are trying to get back into the country by using "underhanded schemes and tricks." It declared: "There are still concealed in various religions some counter-revolutionary remnants, and there are also some local nationalists in religious clothing and some bourgeois rightists, who hope vainly to use religion for carrying o u t reactionary political activities aimed at dividing the motherland and opposing the party, the people and socialism." "There are also some bad elements in various religions," the paper alleged. "who carry out unlawful aclawful activities under cover of religion by swindling the masses of their money, endangering t h e lives of the masses, raping women and girls, and disturbing the peace." "Reactionaries in religious clothing," the paper concluded, are enemies of the people and must be dealt with by "dictatorial means."

Casting For Drama Tourney the 1964 Casting for Therry Drama Tourney will take place at 8 p.m. on Monday, June 15 at the Therry Rooms. Four one-'act plays will be cast for this inter-club tourney, which will have a guest adjudicator. In the past, these tourneys have produced hitherto unsuspected abilities in members — a number of Therries' established actors, actresses a n d producers have had their start in a Therry Drama Tourney. It is hoped that this tourney will foster new actors, producers and an opportunity for a wider selection of plays. It is envisaged that every Therry member not in the cast for the next public production will be involved in the tourney. The next Therry production will be Thackeray's "Vanity Fair," to be produced by Edna Hopkins. The scripts have been obtained and the cast will be announced on June 15. Rehearsals will start almost immediately. These two events start a period of great activity for Therry members—the corn-
Sister M. Theresini (St. Aloysius', Shenton Park) and Mother Raphael (Our Lady's College). During the course, a year's programme of lessons was given to each of the catechists and copies of these are now available from Father J. Nestor at the Catholic Education Office, 77 St. George's Terrace, Perth. • Lay catechists will make a day's retreat at Our Lady's College, Victoria Square, on Sunday, June 21, from 10.45 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Card Evening Monday night, June 15, is the night for the card evening in the De Paul Soup Kitchen, Shenton Street, West Perth. All bridge and rummy players will be welcome.

GIRLS' CLUB A t the fourth meeting of the Maria Assunta Girls' Club last Sunday, the members were shown how to set the vestments for Mass. The girls found this very interesting. It was agreed that group discussions concerning aspects of teenage life should be included in the pro gramme of the meeting. Several topics were suggested by the members. Also further plans for the mission activity of the club were discussed. Arrangements were made for the record evening to be held next Saturday, June 13, at 16 Hampton Road, Victoria Park. An invitation is extended to any girl in the Victoria Park parish who wishes to come along. It was decided that the meetings should be held fortnightly, instead of weekly, as this is more convenient for the members.

• R. GERRY DOOGUE, well known as a successful vendor of State lottery tickets, experienced luck in another sphere last Saturday at Belmont Park: Owned and bred by Mr. Doogue, RACON PRINCE, still a little green, showed a nice turn of speed to win the Juvenile Handicap in good style. Several smart performers were seen at the meetingwinners in HEARTS 'N DIAMONDS, FRIENDLY and WATER CHIEF are a trio likely to figure prominently in future races during the Belmont Park season.

ed that her long list of minor placings had come to an end. However, near the post she was almost stopping to a walk, which enabled ROSE NIGHT to just get up and beat her.
Needs E xperience HAVING her first start in race, MY LADY NITA, full blood sister to AQUA NITA, did well to run second to well-backed RACON PRINCE in the 61-furlong Juvenile Handicap. Many keen racing men will not have a bar of full brothers or sister of a champion. The way this filly came home on Saturday after covering a lot of extra ground suggests that she might be an exception. After her next couple of runs we should be in a much better position to evaluate her future prospects. There are several smart youngsters among the batch of two-year-olds to be produced late this season, which is a good sign for the important racing later in the year.
After the race, rider Ross Cherry came in for much unfair comment for making too much use of his mount. Had she lasted out, of c ourse, it would have been said to be clever riding. The fact is Filunja was not good enough.
More Wins
FRIENDLY showed himsell to be a promising young s tayer when he won the Peninsular Handicap (1) over 1114 furlongs. To be able to go to the front, drop back when required, and then finish on as the winner did in this race, shows that he has something on the majority of stayers. Again UOMIE was sent out a solid favourite only to register another failure. This gal loper, who is proving so costly, lost our vote a couple of starts ago and would have to turn in something outstanding to WHEN FILUNJA entered regain it.

ed played with the opposition when he won the sevenfurlong Welter. The margin in his favour could have been much greater had Treen let his head go. The win brought up three in a row for Greentoi, who is now to be given a spell. With the possible exception of MARKAB, no greater improved horse has been seen here for a long time. Coming back from a longer distance, PETITE AMIE did well -to run third in the event.
How Good? FOR a colt to overcome a bad check, carry 8.8, and beat older horses the way he did in the 10if. Peninsular Handicap (2), points to WATER CHIEF being well above average for his age. The weakness of the field behind him is the only way. the win can be faulted, but this colt won in striking style.
Will Win Again
; A CLEAR-CUT win by HEARTS 'N DIAMONDS in t he seven-furlong Standard that showed Handicap when he won at a long price t he previous Monday, it was no fluke. AQUITANIA was sent out a firm favourite and after having every chance was no match for the winner in the run home. If this race is to be taken as a fair guidethere is no reason why it shouldn't be - either Aquitania has been overrated or the winner is a smart young horse. In running third, SUPERNOVA, who came in for strong support, shaped like a coming winner. After making the early pace, MUNDANE dropped out suddenly. This horse is finding it hard to win a race in Perth.
Week's Best IT is not easy to sort out the best of a number of smart performances seen last Saturday - as usually there is no more than a couple to consider. HEARTS 'N DIAMONDS gets pride of place, as he seems certain to win again, and soon.

Midland Should Win
WITH half the split round decided, ApplecrossPalmyra are in a precarious position in fourth place after being narrowly defeated by Bedford Park. Midland, out of the four by percentage, face the prospect of ousting Applecross/ Palmyra from the fourth position as they meet Maylands in their match this week. On form they should win — much to the detriment of Applecross/Palmyra. Leederville have displaced East Victoria Park in sixth position. Young Easts with a lower percentage could stay displaced as they encounter Highgate this week. Much hinges on this match. Highgate with a good will relegate percentage Bedford Park to third place if victorious. Bedford Park 6-8 defeated Applecross/Palmyra 6-7. Scoring two quick goals at the beginning of the third quarter resulted in Bedford Park winning by the narrowest of margins from Applecross/Palmyra. At three-quarter time the scores were level. Throughout the match and particularly in the last quarter the play was even. Except for the two quick goals mentioned, both sides scored point for point moving the ball up and down the ground with long kicking. The breeze made little difference to the play except to force the ball along the flank. In the last quarter Applecross/Palmyra forced the ball well into their forward zone often but on several occasions found stiff opposition from Nolan and Maronich in the back line for Bedford Park Dunne in the centre proved a handy avenue of attack. R. Stankevicous and R. Davies turned in creditable performances for Bedford Park also. Rick Larsen, as usual, played a couragous game for Applecross Palmyra, relishing the hard hitting encounters in the packs. T. McNaught and D. Neesham played well and would be among the best on the ground. Como 7-12 defeated Shenton Park 4-4. With the advantage of a stiff wintry breeze Como gained an early lead over Shenton Park when they scored 4-7
holding the latter scoreless in the first quarter. Scoring then became fairly even for the rest of the game. Shenton Park could not make use of the breeze when their turn came in the second quarter. Mick Smith at full forward for Shenton Park did not have the opportunities given to him to score but played well to a weak attacking division. Dennis Jones marked well but could not find the openings to send his team forward. Resting in a back pocket Ron Strack defended well and kept Como's score low. For Como Dave Blank proved a spehly avenue of attack at Centre half forward opening the game up with good marking and long kicking. In the last quarter when Shenton looked like going ahead with the breeze Arthur Aitkin short circuited many forward drives. Garry McGrath played well for Como at Centre. Leederville 10-12 defeated Carlisle 3 pts. Carlisle experienced difficulty in combining as a team. Leederville on the other hand were mobile in attack and bewildered their opponents

Lawrence led the attacks and eventually forced a penalty flick which was converted by Prindiville. After half time the game between see-sawed the half-back lines of both teams. Eventually Kinsella scored after a long run down the right wing. The game finally ended with the defences holding firm and a draw was the result.

During the early part of the first half both teams strived hard to score goals. Colgan, who scored both the goals, scored for Old Aquinians and soon after Suburban retaliated. Towards the end of the first half Suburban suddenly ran riot and netted 3 quick goals. After the break Aquinians came out fighting and good defence by Wood and Campbell held off many attacks. Suburban netted another goal and this was followed by another goal from Colgan. The game finally ended with Aquinians running out losers. Best players were Campbell, Wood and Colgan.

WOMAN KILLED The Derby has provided moments of high drama, notably in 1913 when the suffragette Emily Wilding Davidson was killed when she threw herself under the feet of the King's horse Anmer. Both the last two Derbys have also provided unusual incidents. The high point of the race is the long downhill curve of Tattenham Corner, at which it is almost essential to be well placed if one is to have any chance at the finish, and which has been the graveyard of many hopes. The great jockey Steve Donoghue rode six Derby winners in his career, but the equally famous Gordon Richards only achieved his lifelong ambition by winning on Pinza shortly before he retired. In recent years foreign horses have taken a large share of the winnings, but, in order to attract the best horses, it has been necessary to increase the prize money. In 1900 the winhing owner received £6,000 sterling. Last year the first prize was more than 05,000 sterling, and this year it was considerably more, and was the richest race in Europe. • This year's Derby winner was the Irish-trained Santa Claus, ridden by Australian jockey Arthur (Scobiel Breasley.

THE
Sutherland Opera Is Well Worth Having BELLINI : I PURITANI (Complete) .
04
DECCA 172/ 6.
MOST PROFOUND REMARK WAS ONCE MADE TO ME BY A MAN WHO REALLY KNEW MUSIC, AS DISTINCT FROM ONE MERELY WRITES ABOUT IT.
"Every generation of musicians reaches perfection in a certain style," ran his dictum, "the next cannot improve, they can only change — and they, too, reach perfection, but of a different kind." To that wisdomIwould add this—if you ignore it, if you despise Rossini as inferior to Mozart, or Bellini as inferior to Rossini, you are going to miss a lot of lovely music. The revivals of "I Puritani" in recent years have seen it slated by critics who f ailed to see that comparisons with Rossini were begging the question. Those who compared it unfavourably with Donizetti's "Lucia di Lammermoor" were on safer ground because their styles are almost identical. Donizetti once remarked to a friend that he didn't blame Mayerbeer for stealing his music as he often stole from Meyerbeer; in any case, Donizetti went on, the best stuff of both was stolen from Bellini. Certainly, some of "I Puritani" would be familiar to lovers of "Lucia," which was written a few months later! Most of the criticism of "I Puritani" stems from its libretto concerning the Puritans and Cavaliers of England. Distance lends enchantment to the view and the prosaic British Isles seemed glamorous to Bellini and Donizetti. One Donizetti opera, long in oblivion, was even called "Emma di Liverpool!" "I Puritani" would, inreed, be better named "Elvira di Plymouth," for this is no historical drama, but centred around another of those "demented dames" that Joan Sutherland loves so much. It is pure "bel canto," a singer's opera, where history, drama, characterisation and even the minimum of operatic reality is subordinated to the vocal line accompanied by the thinnest orchestration. But what a vocal line and what an accompaniment! Again and again, the felicities smoothed the critical brow. 5 1319

Dillicult Opera THE ORIGINAL cast of the opera had Grisi as Elvira, Rubini as Arturo and Lablache as Giorgio; all are legendary — Grisi was a most famous soprano and the two men are considered to be the best tenor and bass respectively of the 19th century. Bellini took full advantage of their ability and this is a difficult opera to sing. On subsequent occasions there were transpositions

gramophone classic, but I cannot say the same of "I Puritani." From overseas press comment, it emerges that the strictures on "I Puritani" extended to Sutherland herself ever since she attempted the role in 1960 at Glydebourne. She has been accused of mere pyrotechnics, slovenly enunciation and puerile characterisation. Apparently, like the sensible woman she is, she has t aken these comments to heart because recently at Covent Garden her interpretation of Elvira leapt almost to the heights of her Lucia. Unfortunately, this recording was made prior t o that performance and certainly lacks the magic of her recorded Lucia. There is a curious absence of Italians in this production; although recorded in Italy, it was made at Florence with the May Festival Orchestra and neither the city nor the orchestra has a strong operatic tradition.

of key to help lesser voices, but in this recording the original keys are used throughout. The two basses, Ezio Flagello and Renato Cappecchi (from New York and Cairo despite their Italian names) are superb as Giorgi and Riccardo and they have duet magnificent some work. The tenor, Pierre Duval, is rather less effective. Margret a Elkins, a third Australian ,sings the minor minor role of Queen Henrietta magnificently. The only other recording of the opera dates back to 1953, so this is the only available version of a very beautiful work. It is highly doubtful if another company would risk a rival issue of an opera so closely associated with Joan Sutherland, so there isn't any choice. Even if it falls short of the Decca "Lucia," it is still an issue well worth having.

Kennedy March MANILA: A PETITE Filipino nun ^ has won acclaim here and in the United States for her composition of the President Kennedy March. Sister M. Rosalina Abejo, of the Filipino Religious of the Blessed Virgin Mary. composed the march aboard an airliner en route from Manila to Honolulu last year. The late President Kennedy wrote her before he left for Dallas, the nun said, telling her "how happy he was to be honoured with a march and that he and Mrs. Kennedy together with other members of the family 'would be very happy to hear' me play it at the White House at a Christmas reception." The President, however, never heard the piece. He was assassinated at Dallas on November 22. Sister Abejo played the march with orchestral accompaniment for the first time on December 8 in Boston. She has played it since in 30 cities and '70 schools and universities in different nations. Sister Abejo holds a master's degree in music from Eastman School of Musicin New York and the Catholic University of America, Washington, D.C. She is music co-ordinator of the music schools in her order.

Impressive Performance Of "Giselle"
T
HE MORE PRODUCTIONS OF "GISELLE" ONE SEES, THE MORE ONE TENDS TO. DESPAIR OF EVER CHANCING UPON THE DEFINITIVE ONE.
After attending two performances of the Australian Ballet Company's presentation (once with Kathleen Gorham as Giselle and the other with Marilyn Jones) in the Capitol Theatre last week, I was quite convinced of the superiority of this company and confident of the place it will hold in the world of ballet. While seeing Kathleen Gorham dance, I could not help but recall to mind the words of that great Russian dancer Galina Ulanova when she said, "What is essential is to command technique with sufficient freedom to enable you to express the principal idea of the dance." Giselle, a young carefree girl, in love and convinced of her happiness, experiences a great tragedy and in the end develops into the tragic image of a woman with a great suffering heart,
The dancer is faced with the problem of portraying love—hopeful and radiant in the first act, tragic in the second, but in both acts so powerful that it is able to conquer death itself. SUPERIORITY Gorham danced Miss through the period artificialities of "Giselle" with purity and infinite superiority. Her dancing had a sweep and breadth to it with a certain lissom grace that was all her own. The second time I saw "Giselle" I was fortunate to see Marilyn Jones in the lead role. A tall, elegant dancer with a quiet charm, Miss Jones, although lacking some of the facial expression of Miss Gorham, lost little of the breathtaking loveliness and undoubtedly felt the tragedy of the girl.
As Count Albrecht, Garth Welch gave a well-disciplined performance with many moments of genuine excitement, both technically and stylistically.
The youthful Karl We'ander danced the peasant pas de deux with Barbara Chambers and delighted the audience with his high jumps and ebullient personality. Miss Chambers, a simple and honest dancer, was also quite delightful. In the second act Leonie Leahy danced with wonderful polish and timing as the Queen of the Wilis. The second programme of the company's Perth season opened with the relatively unexciting "Jazz Spectrum," choreographed by Betty Pounder with music by Les Patching. It is a series of movements based on the dispersion of a beam of white light when it passes through a glass prism. The dancers, dressed in brilliant costumes representing the primary colours with their various blends and shades, interplay to form a brilliant stage picture.—D.T.

By Rev. Father W J. Foley
HE WORD IS SPREAD IN INDIA . . . "Our T method of procedure is as
follows: Advertisements are placed in the daily newspapers and magazines offering a non-polemic, informative course on Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church. Every advertisement brings in on an average about fifty new enquirers. We offer them a course of fifty letters on Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church, followed up by a more advanced course, leading eventually to personal contact with a Catholic priest. -Our centre achieves great results and we have very many enquirers periodically writing to us saying that they wish to take the definite step. In this gigantic task we really feel that we are conquering souls for Christ—through the message we preach by correspondence, we really offer peace of mind and a sense of mission to all those who come to know Jesus Christ. -We encourage all our Catholics here in India to help us in this project, because St. Augustine says, If you save a soul, you will have predestined your own.' "All those interested can help us very much through their prayers and sacrifices, that Almighty God may give the gift of faith to so many seekers of the Way, the Truth, and the Life."
IF ONLY MORE PRIESTS . . . -My parish consists of 60 villages. The majority of people see a priest only twice or three times a year. This is too little. Whole regions would become Catholic in a few years if only there were a few more priests. "The overload of work often makes it almbst impossible for the misisonary to make contact with the soul of the African. In addition to ministering to and having the care of souls, he also is builder, mechanic, engineer, plumber, organiser of schools —and a human being under the attack of the tropical climate. "Our deepest anxiety is the fact that each year we notice the ever-increasing manipulations of the communists. With devilish ingenuity and with adroit exploration of local situations, the communist wire-pullers bring atheism, confusion and chaos which grows in intensity year after year. To be sure, the soul of the African is religious, but the powers of evil are marvellously camouflaged as good angels such as technical consultants, advisers for nations and patrons and promoters of education and culture. Confusion, chaos, afflictions and want are the fire over which the communist 'bearers of salvation' boil their cauldron of soup.It is important. then, that Africa has countless more spiritual leaders among her own people. The Society of St. Peter the Apostle has been set up for just this purpose — to provide native priests for missionary countries. Won't you support a seminarian for a year?
As the tall, athletic, 34year-old Senator got off the plane at Dublin Airport, he looked exactly like a Tipperary hurler who had betm only a few years in the United States — his facial his and characteristics warm approach to people were as Irish as Irish could be. At times, it seemed as if the welcome in Limerick was even exceeding the fantastic enthusiasm of the welcome the same city gave last year to President Kennedy, who regarded his few days in Ireland as the happiest of his life. The sun shone for Ted Kennedy. He stood with Premier Lernass, as via Telstar, Jacqueline Kennedy exchanged greetings and memories with the Irish Premier, the Premier British former Macmillan, Harold the famous Mayor of Berlin Willy Brandt in a television programme that was watched with excitement and reverence in two Continents and beyond. Soon afterwards, on our television screens, we were seeing Preident de Valera. in the United States, addressing Congress and receiving from the elected representatives of the United States the biggest ovation anyone could remember there. All this in a week in which, in the Irish Senate chamber, the Ministers of Justice of the 17-State Council of Europe were meeting to discuss the further harmonisation of European Law. They had scarcely left when another Council of Europe conference, this time European parliamentarians were meeting in the Parliament building to study the procedures in the national Parliament. They are meeting in different legislative capitals for this purpose. And also due soon—a visit from the French Foreign Minister.

Mass at the Pro-Cathedral, in the city centre, for his late brother. Then he met Irish cousins and during a busy top-level programme he took time off to visit a "singing pub." This is one of the bars or saloons where top balladsingers render the old Irish songs, which are now going through a new wave of popularity. The pub was O'Donoghue's at Merrion Row and, in the previous few days, most people who noticed a lot of activity at O'Donoghue's didn't guess that it was in honour of Ted Kennedy and that he was to make a "surprise" visit.

NOT A SINGER Ted didn't make any claim to be an outstanding ballad singer. When asked for a song, he recalled that in America, when he sang "Sweet Adeline" as guest at a wedding, an old man came up to him and said: "I voted for your grandfather, and I voted for you, but if you ever sing 'Sweet Adeline again, I won't vote for you at all."

In his tour he is following a schedule that would exhaust most young men of twenty, and signs of strain only appeared after his arrival in Canada, but did they mean he was too tired to keep up his usual pace? Not a bit of it; he had spent his "rest period" before leaving the U.S., not in having the short sleep planned for him in a New York hotel, but in talking with U Thant, United Nations Secretary-General, and in composing a message of thanks to President Johnson. In some of his photographs this 8I-year-old looked about forty!
From LOCHLINN MacGLYNN in Dublin He stayed an hour and, as the reporters said subsequnetly, he left "reluctantly." Ted Kennedy has his brother's gift of being at ease with everyone, whether a President or a welcoming Dubliner at a street corner. He recalled with amusement how his brother always spoke of an Irishman who, asked if he wanted to see the President on his visit last year, said no, that he had seen him in 1948. Being President made no difference — he had already met the man, and this interest in the man rather than the office made a pleasing and lasting impression on the President.
brother-in-law Robert, thc Attorney -General, quoting on Telstar for the television sets of two continents the words of a song her husband loved and often sang: "We are the boys of Wexford, Who fought with heart and hand, To burst in twain the galling chain And free our native land." The visit of President Kennedy last year, his identification with the Irish people (he was in some ways more Irish than some of the Irish themselves). and his family's similar interest in Ireland, have made a big contribution to modern Irish morale.
Clongowes College 150 Years Old
Distinguished guests and students from many parts of the world were present. The Irish Minister for Education, Dr. P. J. Hillery, said that not only did Clongowes start among the leaders of Catholic secondary colleges in Ireland, but it had remained among the leaders. Representatives of t h e State (including Parliament), of the universities, of other religious orders and of many organisations and professions were present. The British Ambassador, Sir C. Tory, was among those present, and after the dinner (attended by the Archbishop of Dublin, Most Rev. J. C. McQuaid, D.D., and, among others, the Bishop of Meath, Most Rev. Dr. Kyne) the Rector of the College (Very Rev. Hilary Lawton, S.J.) read a letter from the General of the Order, Very Rev. JohnBaptist Jansens, S.J. The message described the occasion as "not only a milestone in the history of the College, but a significant event in the history of the Province." The foundation of the college, it was added, had been a bold and farseeing act. Now as then its task was to educate boys to stand firm in the Faith in uncertain times. This was

Up In The Clouds
INSTITUTE OF HEALTH SCANDAL
The penultimate scandal concerned the State monopoly in the banana trade, and the latest the Institute of Health. The contrasts are very sharp. One day, Domenico Marotta, president of the Institute, was receiving a decoration for his efforts on behalf of science at the San Domenico Hotel in Taormina. The medal went with the eight other gold medals, the six crosses as a cavahere, the five as a commendatore, and the ribbon of the Ordine do Cruziero to make him one of the most decorated figures outside the officers of the Argentine navy.

Within a few years he engaged 150 new scientists, granted 220 study grants, gave special awards to his He also collaborators. awarded some persons who, although they could not be considered scientists, were in a position to aid scientific research—members of the government, big wheels in other State bodies and other notables.
pinned ASonMarotta the new deco-
ration, the procurator in Rome was deciding which of several charges was to be pinned on him. A few days later several plain-clothes police mounted the stairs to Marotta's after shortly apartment lunch. They rang the doorbell and after convincing the maid that it was an urgent matter, they succeedin seeing Marotta's wife. She told them that the professor was having his siesta and could not be disturbed even for the President of the Republic. They convinced her they were far more important than the President. The professor left home wearing handcuffs. COR 25 years Ma: rotta had been director of the major Italian scientific institute. Previously he had been an unexceptional chemistry professor. The institute meant that he was not only a scientist, but a businessman, a manager of a large enterprise, a traveller, an organiser, a boss. He was nominated to the post by a friend in the government in 1935. His first task was to separate the institute from the Ministry of Hea11,11 and the second to gain: access to the vast funds so that he could spend with the lhvish hand necessary for extensive research. Marotta obtained grants from private industry, loans from credit institutes, and support from a number of American scientific foundations. His third task was to obtain freedom to spend the money without the lengthy checks usually exercised over public money. Marotta found the answer to this problem in "study centres," which are free from the rigorous and slow control exercised over State spending. With the establishment of a dozen of these scentres, Marotta gained the freedom to buy the most expensive scientific instruments by

exuberant leadership, was in constant expansion, but the bookkeeper was not happy about administrative details such as the way some equipment was paid double its value. His complaints about irregularities wasted a lot of t ime as he was so pigheaded. Finally, he was sacked, but he regarded this also as an irregularity and, in his pig-headed way, he set about making the institute lose a lot of time about it. The Procurator of Rome, like Marotta, is something of a missionary, but his passion is the law rather than science, and he does not try to hide his belief that there should be rigorous control over the chief figures in the public administration. He looked into the bookkeeper's complaints and then laid charges not only against Marotta, but also eight other highly placed officers of the institute. What is wrong with the Italian public administration? There is no one answer, but the widespread system of recommendations means that influential people may have regulations waived. Another defect is the complexity of laws which the administration must obey. Financial controls, for example, are very thorough, but they must be exercised by so many persons in cooperation that there is ample room for evasion. Here another factor comes into play which has a particular interest at the moment —collegiality.

general throughout the Italian civil service. It means that everyone, from the doorMan to the directorgeneral, has an overall re sponsibility for a ministry or department. There is co-operative re sponsibility, but tod often it

is shown that where everyone is responsible, none is responsible. In effect, everyone regards themselves as competent and responsible for the pleasant, easy tasks, but no one wants to be answerable for the difficult ones. It is more than likely that some of the unhappy effects of collegiality in the Italian public administration were in the minds of the Italian bishops during the council discussion of collegiality. It was an Italian curial cardinal who was supposed to have remarked that the only time the Apostles acted collegially was when they slept while Christ prayed in the garden. As well as theological differences between the bishops in the council, there are also cultural differences t o influence their reactions. "Collegiality" may evoke for Australian, American and English bishops the relationships which exist in a university college, and in this American experience is not identical with English. But the Italian bishops probably thought of the way collegiality functions in the Italian civil service, and who knows what the word evoked for the African bishops. What "collegiality" means historically is rather obscure, as the French theologian Yves Congar pointed out in a talk given during the last session. Studies still have to discover in greater detail if and when bishops acted with a consciousness of collegiality. Doubtless, one historic example of their action will be when the college of bishops reassembles for the third se sion.

ROOF-TOP restaufant with a 30-mile view from Park Lane, a collection of more than a thousand paintings and prints, conference facilities for more than a thousand persons, a modern interpretation of a Victorian inn, and a restaurant where the decor can be altered to match changing international menus—these are just a few of the features of the new London Hilton Hotel. One newspaper described it as "the dizziest, most dazzling building in London." It is certainly a skyscraper of a type unknown to the London skyline before World War II. Built at a cost of £8,000,000 sterlin; the 30-storey hotel is the biggest built in Europe since the war. It. stands on a one-and aquarter acre site fronting on Park Lane, for generations famous as the home of millionaires. The building is Y-shaped and rises to a height of 328 feet. The London Hilton con. tains 512 air-conditioneo guest rooms to accommo date 856 visitors, five restaurants, five bars and cocktail lounges, seven private dining-rooms and one of Eu rope's largest and most handsome ballrooms. Designed by Sir Hugh Casson, it is used for dances. conventions, ex hibi tions. dress shows and similar occasions. It can be divided into three when required for smaller events. Because so much equipment is concealed in the r oof — a large number of lights, microphones and the like—the ceiling consists of steel rafters, closely spaced and finished in a bronze colour. Every guest room has t elevision and iced drinking water is on tap in all the bathhrooms. The entrance lobby, at street level, is in two parts —the main lobby on the Park Lane entrance, and the banquet lobby leadileg from the central roadway parallel to Park Lane and running through the core of the building.

Scandalous Novels By Catholics A.M., EAST BRIGHTON, VICTORIA, writes— SERVED overseas in the first World War and acquired an intense dislike of obscene speech day in and day out, yet recently in a book — which I did not finish— fo und it all reproduced, together with vividly described immoral episodes, by Graham Greene, whose example is followed by other so-called leading "Catholic" authors. R.: Graham Greene is at least honest enough to in. sist that he is not a "Catholic novelist," but a "novelist who happens to be a Catholic." He has said that were it not for his disloyalty to his religion he could not write the novels he does. Anglican Even the -Church Times," of London. commented on his apparent "love-hate" relationship with his Church, and his obsession with human failure in religion and sex, so that he combines criticisms of his Church which are sometimes "searing in their savagery," with details of immoral behaviour "shocking in their skill." The formula — adopted also by his imitators — seems to be: Take the Catholic religion for your theme with a liberal introduction of sexual abnormalities for the sake of sales. EFFECT ON YOUNG PEOPLE Q.: Such books are not a source of temptation to me. I am old enough now to experience only disgust. But what of the young and immature? R.: Defenders of such books say that our Catholic young people should be so well grounded in faith and morals and literary tastes that they won't find suggestive passages a source of mental and moral infection; but that's a dream.
Or they say that such books are for mature readers only, and that parents have the duty to supervise the reading of impressionable youngsters, keeping unsuitable books out of their hands; but that also is a dream. Others says that Catholics are taught the obligation of avoiding the occasions of sin, and that if a given book is a source of serious temptation to them, they should drop the book. But many will yield to the unholy " fascination and won't drop the book. The proverbial weakness of human nature is unhappily always there. BIBLICAL WARNING Q.: Who can tell what harm such books do? And what becomes of Our Lord's words that it would be better that one have a mill-stone tied round one's neck and be than cast into the sea 'scandalise one of His least little ones? R.: The authors of such books should certainly ask themselves those questions. Pope John XIII said all good men should protest against the excessive portrayal of immorality in fiction. The Catholic Bishops of England recently attributed the collapse of morals there to contemporary fads in literature, at least to a great extent. Novels which, with an

plies only to the Latin Church." That is simply not true. Taking all aspects of this matter into consideration, therefore, I think the abolition of the law as it applies to the Latin Rite and to the Eastern and Uniat Churches would be more of a hindrance than a help towards reunion of all Churches eventually in the full and Catholic sense of the word.

Papal Supremacy Through The Ages
Q.: Do you think such a relaxation would be a help or a hindrance to reunion? R.: Here a dilemma arises. The cause of reunion has to be pursued on two fronts. In the Eastern Orthodox Churches, marriage is still strictly forbidden after ordination as a priest. It is true that a man already married may be ordained in these churches and continue as married; but if his wife dies, he may not remarry. In the Uniat Eastern Churches, i.e., those in communion with the Pope, Rome allows this same disciplinary law to continue. It may be that, all else being presupposed, the abolition of the law of celibacy would dispose the Western Protestant Churches more favourably towards reunion with the Catholic Church; but it would be at the expense of alienating the Eastern Orthodox Churches which are unyielding on the obligation of celibacy for single men already ordained as priests. Many people fail to advert to this. Even Dr. Hans Kung, on p. 178 of "The Council, Reform and Reunion," makes the astonishing statement that the obligation of celibacy "ap-

HEAVY RESPONSIBILITY Q.: Do I have to revise all my ideas of what a Catholic may write or read, and still hope to save his soul? R.: Perhaps not all of them, though possibly some of them. One thing is certain. Authors who include morally offensive passages in their novels shoulder a heavy responsibility. They may say they have no intention to corrupt, but only to paint a realistic picture of the seamy side of life in the interests of art and as a serious contribution to literature. But they can't disown accountability for harm to thousands of their readers. Both Boccaccio and Chaucer, who lived in the 14th century, when they came to die, bitterly regretted and repented of the licentious passages in their works which contributed to the moral laxity of the Renaissance period. And it is not too much to say that many modern authors — and especially Catholic ones will need to do the same, if they wish to save their souls. But they must look to that. We can't attend to it for them.
S.J.S., Tumut: Do you think the law of celibacy for priests will be relaxed within the next few years, even those already ordained being allowed to marry? R.: Personally, I do not think there is any future prospect of the Catholic Church permitting any gen eral relaxation of the law of celibacy, still less any abolition of it, above all in the sense that those already ordained as priests would be allowed to marry.

ART AND MORALITY Q.: The more powerfully such books are written, the more they grip the attention and the more likely they are to be the cause of sin. R.: There's a good deal of truth in that. It's all very well to talk of "art for art's sake," but no form of human activity is independent of morality. If the artistry of a novelist enriches life in one direction but corrupts it in another, it stands condemned. No literary merit redeems a book calculated by its seductive passages to undermine the morals of its readers. It is admittedly very difficult to establish hard and fast rules here, owing to the variety of temperaments and susceptibilities. • Some people are too impressionable and cannot in conscience read what ofher better-balanced people can read without danger.

DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS, A fter tell ing you about the ecl ipse of the sun last week and explaining how to view it through a pinhole camera, it must have been disappointng for many of you to find that you could not see the eclipse because of the overcast sky. However, it may have saved many from getting sore eyes. Well, we are almost half-way through the month of June. Apart f rom being the halfway mark of the year it is also a month of special devotion to the Sacred Heart. This devotion to the Sacred Heart was first made public by Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque to whom Our Lord appeared in the year 1690. We should al l try to increase our devotion to Our Lord, under the symbol of His Sacred Heart, for because of his love for mankind he not only suffered and died for us but also instituted His Body and Blood in commemoration of His death. We can show our appreciation of what Our Lord has done for us by attending Mass regularly and especially by receiving Holy Communion and attending Benediction which is held in most parish churches on the first Friday of each month. God bless you all, BROTHER JUNIPER.
