CARDINAL RELEASED BY COMMUNIST GOVT. PATRICK REILLY writes from ROME,

AFTER MORE THAN 15 YEARS OF INTERNMENT AND RESTRICTION BY CZECHOSLOVAK I 'S COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT, JOSEF CARDINAL BERAN OF PRAGUE WAS ALLOWED TO COME TO ROME THREE DAYS BEFORE HE WAS MADE A MEMBER OF THE SACRED COLLEGE BY POPE PAUL VI. His first statement on arriving here was to thank the Pontiff for his promotion and say it showed the Pope's "love for my dear country and all the Catholics of Czechoslovakia." The new cardinal came here only three days after he had been described by a Western newsman as "a virtual prisoner" of the communists. Cardinal Beran reached Rome's Fiumicino Airport in a Soviet-built Czechoslovak TU104 jetliner accompanied by Monsignor Agostino Casaroli, Papal Under-Secretary of State for Extraordinary Ecclesiastical Affairs, the negotiator of last September's agreement between the Holy See and communist-ruled Hungary. Monsignor Casaroli has for months been negotiating also with the Czechoslovak government.

No Recent Statement OnBirth Contra

glaring headlines in the Church will have to THE proclaim this law of God the early editions of the

"Daily News" last Monday gave the impression that His Holiness the Pope had intervened in a current, much - publicised storm about birth control. NO STATEMEINT HAS BEEN MADE BY THE POPE ON THIS SUBJECT SINCE THE ONE MADE IN JUNE, 1964. In this statement he said: "The problem everybody is talking about, that is, of so-called birth control: that is to say of population growth on the one hand and family morality on the other. "It is an extremely serious problem. It touches the source of human life. It touches sentiments a n d c oncerns which are closest to the experience of man and woman. It is an extremely delicate and complex problem. "The Church recognises its manifold aspects, that is to say the multiple spheres of competence. Among these, that of the spouses is certainly preeminent —their liberty, their conscience, their love and their duty. "But the Church must also affirm her part, that is, God's law, which she interprets, teaches, promotes- and defends. And

in the light of scientific, social and psychological truths which in recent times have had new and very extensive study and documentation. CAREFUL STUDY

"It will be necessary to look carefully and squarely at this theoretical as well as practical development on the question. And this is what the Church is in fact doing. The question is under study as broad and deep as possible, that is, in the serious and honest manner a question of such importance demands. "It is under study, we repeat, and we hope soon to conclude (this study) with the help of many eminent scholars. We shall quickly issue its conclusions in the form which is judged most adequate to the subject treated and to the goal to be achieved. "But meanwhile we say frankly that as of now we do not have sufficient reason to regard the norms given by Pope Pius XII as surpassed, and therefore not binding. They must therefore be considered valid, at least until we feel bound in conscience to modify them. "In a subject of such gravity, it certainly seems that Catholics should want to follow a single law, such as the Church authoritatively proposes.

"And it therefore seems opportune to recommend that nobody for the time being take it upon himself to speak in terms different from the norms in force."

The current publicity has been caused by two priests in England expressing their private views in an English paper. One has been suspended from preaching and the other, a Divine Word Missionary, is at the Order's Scholasticate at Lake Nemi in Italy. In a statement issued by the Order, the Society stated that the priest did not have the approval of either the diocesan authorities or his superiors and that his views did not "represent the views of this Religious Society." The statement said that the priest "was ordained last year at the age of 24. He had no further specialised training and holds no graduate degrees in theology or any other branch." His post was that of teacher of mathematics and geography at the minor seminary.

ANNUAL CONVENTION THE Annual Holy Name Convention will be held Trinity at College, Riverside Drive, East Perth, on Tuesday, March 9, at 7.45 p.m. A full representation of Holy Name men is expected to be present.

Named A dministrator

Before he reached Rome, there was believed to be little hope that Cardinal Beran would be able to attend the consistory elevating him to the Sacred College. The Czechoslovak government had refused to allow news of his appointment to be published and r esorted to jamming for t he first. time in 18 month to keep the news of hi elevation, broadcast b:. Vatican Radio, from reaching Czechoslovaks. At the same time tighter restrictions were placed on the Cardinal himself. One news agency- was able to interview him by telephone shortly after his nomination to the Sacred College on January- 25, but after February 1 attempts to reach him by phone resulted only in the reply: "Mr. Beran is not available."

AT almost the same time had taken an oath of alleas the Cardinal's arrival giance to the Czechoslovak here, the Holy See an- Socialist Republic.

STRUGGLES: Known And Unknown H IIME.

AVE YOU EVER NOTICED HOW OFTEN A MARRIED MAN WHO ADMITS THE SACREDNESS OF THE MARRIAGE BOND WILL FLY INTO A RAGE WHEN HE FINDS THAT HIS FOURTH WIFE IS FOUND TO BE UNFAITHFUL?

or

HAVE YOU EVER NOTICED how a judge who hands down a decision in court that there is really no standard for judging obscenity, will summon the police when his daughter receives an anonymous telephone call from one who indulges in obscenities? HAVE YOU EVER NOTICED how a merchant who, over a long period of time, cheated his customers by giving them seven ounces of milk when they had paid for eight, will become furious against a small shopkeeper who put eleven bananas into a bag, when the order called for twelve? In each and every one of these cases, there was a hidden desire for true marriage fidelity, a high esteem for the virtue of purity, and an unconscious yearning for honesty among all men. The very values they disavowed when

it concerned another, they preserved when it concerned themselves. He who thinks that he has silenced the voice of conscience, and crushed the Divine and moral order, nevertheless, is tormented by the very reality of that which he considered a myth and a f antasy. The more one deals with frail human mortals, the more one becomes convinced that every person is going through one or the other kind of struggle —namely, either a conscious struggle or an unconscious one.

over 35 years of age is either consciously or unconsciously dominated by a fear of death and a religious problem. Of the unconscious struggle, another psychiatrist said: "Of course I agree with you that the real torment of our patients is not that about which they talk to us. And this torment becomes a hindrance to the healing forces which we seek to arouse within them. But I do not know how to broach with them this essential subject of faith." There is the key: "Their real torment is not that about which they talk to us." They talk about scapegoats, about too much love on the part of a father or mother; they talk about poor economic conditions, about the repression by a boss, about the jealousy of a husband; they talk about the jaundiced face, but not about the hidden organic disorder which created that condition. It is this unconscious sickness ,this dramatic struggle below the threshold of honest confession which destroys personality and makes a real cure impossible. Persons who have conscious struggles with sin in the light of a consciously recognised moral law never become neurotic or psychotic. It is the unconscious struggles which make mental wrecks. As Gustave Thibon put it: "No sooner does a men expel God from himself than everything within him (every fragment of his disclocated being) is successively summoned to become god; and at the same time to become war."

namely, the young man battling to overcome perverse homosexual tendencies, or a businessman who started as a social drinker and is ending as an alcoholic, or a young woman warring against the fast-talking and clever, alluring solicitations of an older man who is willing to divorce his wife "whom he never loved anyway." In each and every instance the conscious struggle always implies an ideal. There is a double admission of a target and the fear that an arrow may go astray, of the springtime garden whiclought to be cultivated and the laziness which permits the growing of thistles. There may be in such persons many instances of leaving the roadway, but they never throw away the map. That why their conflict is conscious. It is like Peter who cried out: "Depart from me, 0 Lord, for I am a sinful man."

l F THE unconscious struggle is of an entirely different character, and its fits the three typical cases mentioned above. It is unconscious, because there is a repression of a goal, the denial of a destiny, the ridiculing of a moral order and the setting up of oneself as both the arrow and the target; anything I decide to be right is right. After dealing with thousands of such cases, Dr. Jung said that every person

ASTEL GANDOLFO, 'kill the hill town an hour's drive from Rome, boasts that it is the summer capital of Catholicism when the Pope spends his vacation there. Ariccia, ten minutes beyond Castelgandolfo, could claim to be the winter capital of Catholicism, or at least, of the Council, but it is not saying a word. A hush-hush atmosphere prevails in the small town while Council periti such as Monsignor George Higgins and -Father John Courtney Murray arrive for a few days to work on schema 13 or religious liberty, then fly back to America before anyone notices their absence. Anyone trying to contact a schema 13 peritus in Rome is told that he is out of town and cannot be reached.

vision has created unprecedented difficulties for the head of Vatican ceremonial. Monsignor Dante, one of the new cardinals, came to tell the Santa Chiara people what changes Pope Paul desired in cardinalate garb. They were not as severe as the craftsmen feared, but they were the first results of a long study that has been c onducted en ecclesiastical dress. The new cardinals did not have to prepare the silk garments which are most costly part of the cardinalate wardrobe. They will have two sets of w oollen garments, one red and one purple. The red is a symbol of fidelity to the Church, the purple the symbol of mourning. They can also eliminate the gold braid and green tassels from their hats.

to the consistory's religious character by concelebration of Mass. Pope Paul has moved prudently—there is some resistance to the changes he has made, but they are only the first steps. The same studies which led to the modifications of cardinals' dress have also suggested others affecting bishops and other prelates. They are designed to reveal more clearly the Church's spiritual mission. They should be linked with other reforms—in the new Pontifical Annual the "servants of sword and cape," a Spanish-style adjunct of the Papal court, are

not listed apart; the Congregation of Rites and the postconciliar commission on the liturgy are being merged; and, of course, the college of cardinals is undergoing a transformation. The changes are being made as gradually as possible. And it is well to remember that Pius XII, in 1952, began the reform of c ardinals' dress by advising them not to use the silk garments, to shorten the train, of the state cloak from seven metres to three, and to live austerely. • READERS' OPINIONS will be found on Page Six.

Bishop Refutes Education Claim

BISHOP McKEON has refuted the. idea that any form

of Government aid to private schools opened the way for the intensification of religious bigotry. He was referring to a book entitled "State Aid for Education—a Public Mischief" which claimed that while Catholic schools follow a common course with the Government schools, they are in reality schools of snobbery and class distinction. His Lordship was speaking at the opening of Our Lady of the Missions High School in Fremantle. He said, "Could you imagine our Sisters whose whole life and work is embued with the charity of Christ, fostering religious bigotry in their schools? Could you imagine them fostering snobbery and class distinction in their classrooms? "There are some, a small minority", he said, "who would erect their Iron Curtains and Berlin Walls here in Australia in the field of education as well as in the field of industry, but by now they should realise that neither the people of Australia, nor our democratically elected governments will tolerate the building of such walls within our shores. Bishop McKeon took the opportunity to pay tribute to the Federal Government for its generosity towards the building and equipping of science blocks. His Lordship noted that £5,000 had been given towards cost of the science wing. "Our State Premier has also promised to help our students and we know from experience that be will honour his promises", he said. Also present at the opening was the Minister for Education, the Hon. E. H. Lewis, M.L.A. Mr. Lewis said that since he had been Minister for Education, it had been his

privelege to attend many similar functions, and he had never ceased to be thrilled with the sacrifice made by Catholics for education. "Were the Government of this State personally to have any qualms about the great value of aid to any Catholic Schools I would not be here today," he said. Mr. Lewis said that he was pleased that the government had been able to provide some aid to the schools and he had no doubts that, irrespective of which government goes into office, further aid will be given. "Just how much is given must be in proportion to other State developments," he said. The new five-year regional high school is situated in Tuckfield Street, Fremantle, and is conducted by the Congregation of Our Lady of the Missions. It will serve girls living at Applecross, Melville, Palmyra and East Fremantle. Built at a cost of approximately £30,000 the school can accommodate about one hundred students. The two storey building is constructed of salmon coloured brick and comprises three classrooms, a science laboratory and a small office. There is also a spacious undercroft which houses a canteen, toilet block and locker room. The well-equipped classrooms are brightly painted and gaily patterned curtains shield the rooms from the hot afternoon sun. Vinyl floor tiles are used throughout the building. The architect for the new school was Mr. Peter Arney and the builder was Mr. Alf Power.

It has served its purpose very well and has been admired for its simplicity and clarity. A 'new look,' however, is necessary from time to time.

"HEAR OUR VOICE"

ROME: "Congo, listen to our voice," Pope Paul VI cried out here in an impassioned but forgiving protest against the recent slaughter of missioners and hostages in that African country. The Pope said he spoke in the "voice of a father, on whose lips are only wotds of pardon and peace, the voice of a friend who is inspired by no personal interest . . . whose only concern is for the true good of each nation and of the whole great human family." The Pope particularly condenmned the fact that not only were Religious persecuted for their faith but that hostages were killed without trial. He called this a "brutal violation of the right to life which obliges us to recall solemnly the great c ommandment . . .You shall not kill."

RULES OF FASTING AND ABSTINENCE DURING LENT

ABSTI NENCE:

1. Everyone in good health who has reached the age of reason is obliged to abstain. To abstain is a serious obligation. 2. All Fridays and Ash Wednesday are days of abstinence. 3. Flesh meat and meat soup are forbidden. Lard and dripping may be used on days of abstinence provided they be used merely as a condiment or seasoning.

FAST: 1. Everyone in good health over 21 years of age and under 59, and not engaged in exhausting work, is obliged to fast. This is a serious obligation. 2. Every day of Lent, from Ash Wednesday to midnight on Holy Saturday, is a day of fast, except all Sundays and St. Patrick's Day (March 17). 3. On fast days, those bound to fast are allowed one full meal, that is a meal without any limitation as to quantity, and two smaller meals. At the two smaller meals they may take whatever is necessary to enable them to perform their ordinary duties. The full meal may be taken either in the evening or at midday. (A handy way of computing how much food may be taken at the smaller meals is to say that together they should not equal the full meal.) 4. Eating between meals, even fruit and confectionery, breaks the fast. However, a biscuit or some similar small portion of food may be taken with a drink. 5. Liquids do not break the fast (a liquid is anything that is consumed as a drink, e.g. tea, milk. fruit juices, beaten egg, etc.). 6. On days of fast without abstinence, meat is allowed at all meals.

NOTE:

( a) The solemnities of marriage (Nuptial Mass, the use of music, etc.) are forbidden until Easter Monday. (b) The Paschal Precept is required to be fulfilled between Ash Wednesday and Trinity Sunday ( June 13).

BOTH CATHOLIC AND PROTESTANT CHURCHWOMEN HAVE JOINED FORCES IN A DRIVE FOR GOVERNMENT ACTION IN MANY AREAS TO COMBAT IMMORALITY AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE. The joint project is rare in Sweden where ecumenical activities have been slow to get off the mark. Churchmen from the Catholic, the State Lutheran church and non-established Protestant churches have encouraged mothers to take part in the project. In letters to the Swedish Parliament and to Ragner Edenman, Minister of Education and Church Affairs, the women plan to ask for better moral training in schools to battle the "increase of juvenile delinquency, misuse of alcohol and narcotics, sexual promiscuity and the spread of venereal disease."

Moral and Economic Necessity

Prop. B. B. REILLY JACK

THE FIRST DRAFT OF A NEW OFFICIAL CATECHISM FOR ENGLAND AND WALES, WHICH 'TRIES TO PRESENT THE FAITH IN A NEW AND VITAL WAY, WILL BE SUBMITTED TO THE BISHOPS IN LONDON IN A FEW MONTHS. Father Francis Somerville, ,S.J., who heads the 11man committee preparing the book, announced this in the monthly magazine "Clergy Review." He said the authors wrote the catechism for 11 to 15yeat-olds of average intelligence in order to "keep to essentials, aim at clear presentation, choose simple language." But he expects it will also be used by adults. "As for children under 11, they do not need a catechism." Like the new catechisms in Germany and Australia, it will draw on the most recent developments in theology,

GOOD business management is a moral as well as an economic necessity, Franziskus Cardinal Koenig of Vienna advised a conference of industrialists in Austria. He declared that executives have the real duty of ensuring that their firms achieve success. In some cases where the future of an enterprise is in doubt, businessmen may have an ethical responsibility to see that it continues to exist, for overall economic or social reasons, the Cardinal said. He also said that workers must be given a voice in company matters in which they are competent to speak. Cardinal Koenig said there was a welcome trend towards an understanding that good profits and good business ethics are not contradictory.

TO LOVE AND TO BE LOVED

O .

OF THE FIRST THINGS LEARNED IN STUDYING THE CATECHISM IS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION— NE WHAT IS MAN? WHAT IS A HUMAN BEING?

A human being is defined there as a "creature" (composed of body and soul) and made to the image and likeness of God." Two elements here might be emphasised. One, that a human being is a creature and, two, that he is made to the imagci and likeness of God. By being a creature is simply meant that every human being is the product of the gifts of love of other persons—first, of God Who through His gift of love gives him life; and then, the gift of love of the parents who co-operate with God in the gift of life. The gifts of love continue to be given by God and the parents and, supplemented by the gifts of others (family, teachers, religious, friends, companions and so on through life), work towards his perfection and completion as a human being.

LOVE

IT ALWAYS REMAINS TRUE that no matter how far he progresses, or how perfect and independent he becomes, this human being always remains a creature. As a creature, he always has this basic need flowing from his very being—the need to be loved by others. It may change in its demands, as he changes and matures, but it always remains—the need to be loved. Yet, while the human being remains always a creature needing to be loved, it is equally true that he is also made to the image and likeness of God, sharing in the essential operation of God, As he grows from infancy. which is to love. through childhood and adolescence into adulthood this need to love, to be like God, to give of himself. becomes a stronger drive in him.

NATURE

TO PARAPHRASE a well-known quotation—If marriage didn't exist, it would have to be invented. It flows as naturally and as spontaneously from the acts of creation and from the nature of human beings as water bubbles from a spring. The need of the creature—to be loved by someone like himself; the need of the image of God—to love someone like unto himself; the further need on the part of both to see their love incarnate in their children and/or in the perfection of their own personalities — where can these needs be more wonderfully met on a human level than in marriage? Marriage, then, might be defined as a lifetime relationship of gifts of love being given according to the needs of the one being loved. On the basis of this definition, it is important for the people in marriage to understand two things. First, one must understand oneself and one's gift for love. Unless this true (although not necessarily complete) knowledge of oneself is had, then any gift of love made will be given inadequately (or not at all), because it will spring from a distorted sense of competency. Secondly, in a happy marriage one must have not only a proper evaluation of one's own gifts of love, but also a true and continually deepening awareness of the needs of being loved that are part of the nature of the other, the beloved. This is necessary because unless a gift of love is given according to the needs of the one being loved, then such a gift will be sterile and frustrated. This implies on the part of each a willingness and a desire to act as the image and likeness of God towards the other and a readiness to pay the consequent price of love. And here is the mark of the adult which is probably another reason why marriage is an adult relationship and a good family life is the product of a mature love. * The address of the local Catholic Marriage Guidance Centre is 77 S1' GEORGE'S TERRACE, PERTH.

Peace Effort Made By Pope In Vietnam

ECUMENICAL FIGURES MEET

PATRICK REILLY writes from VATICAN CITY. THE HOLY FATHER HAS REVEALED THAT HE HAS MADE "CONFIDENTIAL" APPROACHES IN AN ATTEMPT TO PRESERVE WORLD PEACE. He wrote this in a letter to the bishops of war-torn Vietnam where American forces helping in the fight against communist guerrillas have struck at bases in the communist-ruled north. After recalling his public appeals for peace, the Pope said: "With the same solicitude we have endeavoured to approach or to bring to us representative personalities of various governments in a confidential way to urge them to contribute to an honourable and peaceful solution of the various international difficulties which cannot fail to worry us gravely." TRANQUILLITY The Pope assured the he bishops Vietnamese would continue his efforts "to obtain the tranquillity of your beloved country as well as to foster peace in the whole world." His letter, dated February 13, was published a week later. Pope Paul began by acmessage a knowledging from the Vietnamese bishops who had gathered in a general conference. Their words, said the Pope, "echoed in our soul as an appeal coming from many of our sons who expect comfort from the Common Father in their many great miseries." He then spoke of his anguish at witnessing, "far away in body but very near bloody the spirit," in struggle in Vietnam. This struggle gives cause for fear of "even more tragic and more serious developments," he said. "As you well know, we have not ceased during the last few months to raise our voice publicly to halt the extension of conflicts and to lead people to the thoughts of peace. We did this especially in our appeal of August 26, 1964, and again last De-

THE

FULL - TIME DEACON

Brisbane: Rev. Kevin Costigan, of Toowoomba, has been appointed full time deacon at St. Mary's Parish, Warwick — claimed to be the first such appointment to any Catholic Church in Australia. Rev. Costigan completed his theological studies at Pius XII Seminary, Banyo, and hopes to be ordained in June this year. As a deacon he will attend to many duties in the parish. He cannot perform the duties of offering Mass or granting absolution in confession, but he will assist in distributing Holy Communion and will baptise and preach. He will also attend to many duties that are customary in parish life, such as visitation and attendance at meetings, including those where it is customary to give a spiritual talk, for preaching is part of the office of a deacon. Another duty will be the instruction of children in Catholic and State schools. LAST STEP The order of deacon is the last step on the way to the priesthood. A deacon is bound by the same obligations as a priest including the recitation of the Divine Office. These obligations are assumed when he receives the order of sub-deacon, the order prior to the diaconate. Rev. Costigan was educated at the Christian Brothers' College, Toowoomba. Deacons will be used widely on similar duties to those of Rev. Costigan in other parts of the world, especially in Latin America, where priests are in short supply.

READERS' OPINIONS . . . Mass Translation SIR, The new translation of the Mass is clearly meant to be popular, and oldfashioned expressions have been done away with so that nothing should come between the modern worshipper and the meaning of the Liturgy. This is a splendid intention, but it has not been carried out. The translation has no feeling for idiom or for rhetoric. This is like saying that Mr. X's musical setting for the Mass shows no knowledge of harmony and counterpoint, and one does not make this sort of criticism lightly. But look at some examples. (1) The old "Blessed is he who cometh in the name of the Lord" now reads "Blest is he who comes in the Lord's name." This is open to two objections, one of them turning on a point of Latin grammar, the other on points of idiom and rhetoric. The first and more obvious objection is that "Blest be . . ." is a curious translation of "Benedictus," which is simply the Latin for "is blessed." If there is a rule for getting this "Let him be" sense out of the Latin indicative, then I never learnt it, or have forgotten it. But perhaps there is: I am no Latinist. Very few of us may be

Latinists, but most of us have a sense for the idioms

of our own language, and for what is fitting and digni-

tied, and even with the translation amended from be to plain is, the "Benedictus" is still open to criticism: it would now read: ( la "Blessed is he who comes in the Lord's name." Nobody is likely to complain about the change from "cometh" to "comes,'" "cometh" is a dead form and can be let go, but why this rather self-conscious and feeble "s" for the dative? Is it supposed to be more up to date than the "of" form? If so, it isn't: "This is the house of the Premier" is still as good as "This is the Premier's house," and we use either as we choose. But for the Liturgy, only one of the two possible translations will really do. "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord" is absolutely idiomatic English and splendidly rhetorical as well; the first and last words of the sentence balance with a perfect symmetry, "Blessed . . . Lord" bracketing the rest with the two important notions, that someone is

blessed, and that it is due to the Lord that someone is blessed. But "Blessed is he

who comes in the Lord's name" puts a stress on "name," the Lord having been shunted off before the climax of the sentence. The Latin is, after all, as the English should be, rhetorical, "Benedictus quit venit

in nomine

Domini,"

and

why sacrifice the meaning and the sense of this rhetoric when you don't have to?

translation that should never have been perpetrated. Clearly we cannot have "you who take," this is too like "yoohoo" and good sense has prevailed thus far, but "You take away the sins of the World" just won't do in Australia. Why? "You take . . ." "You give . . ." "You lend . . ." are all in vulgar Australian a kind of imperative,I can't remember what the grammarians and the linguistics fellows call them, but they are insinuating, begging imperatives, wheedling phrases —"You lend me your bike, c'mon," "You take me to the pictures." I will not nudge my Maker in the ribs like this in prayer. The obvious alternative "Who takes away the sins of the world" is clearly right: (a) it doesn't even sound like a question, taken in isolation, since the idom here for questions is "takes" as in the Parliamentary "who goes home," and (b) we all know by instinct the reasons of euphony which rule out saying "You who," but we know equally well by instinct that "Who" here means "You who," and we understand it this way. The whole context is vocative, Addressing someone, and the "You" addressed can be taken for granted in the phrases which fellow "We praise you . . . Lord God." The "Have mercy on us" which follows the "who takes away the sins of the world" must not be preceded by anything that will detract from its seriousness. But it just happens that "You take . . ." is the form of a jocular, familiar begging-imperative in the language most of us spoke as children, and we can't forget it or get rid of its overtones. And this rules the translation out absolutely. Even the men who Englished the Mass for us were children once: don't they remember? Yours, etc.

(2) Equally, the translation is insensitive to the overtones of modern Australian idiom. We are told that "Go the Mass is ended: Thanks be to God" is to be dropped entirely, and so it should be for obvious reasons. (If they aren't obvious to you watch your children giggle on Sundays, and me with them.) For very much the same kind of reasons "You take away the sins of PATRICK HUTCHINGS, the World" (Gloria) is a .Nedlands.

NM MASS MINUS EFFECTIVE MARCH 7 IN RESPONSE TO MANY REQUESTS, THE LIST OF CHANGES IN THE MASS PUBLISHED IN THE LAST ISSUE OF "THE RECORD" IS REPEATED. In addition to the Liturgical changes already in operation, the remaining provisions of the "Instruction for the Proper Implementation of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy" will be officially introduced on the first Sunday of Lent, March 7. As from that date the following changes are to be implemented and observed uniformly in every parish. LOW MASS * Psalm 42 is to be omitted from prayers at the foot of the altar in ALL Masses—Latin and English. The priest begins Mass with the Sign

of the Cross:

÷ In the name of the Father, and of the ,Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. I will go to the altar of God. R. To God who has gladdened me from

childhood days. (Omit Psalm 42.) P. Our help is in the name of the Lord. R. Who made heaven and earth. Priest: Confiteor . . . People: May the almighty God, etc. Priest: Amen . . . People: Confiteor. Versicles and responses and "Let us

pray" before the "Aufer a Nobis" are all in English. * The opening words "Glory be to God on high" of the Gloria and"I believe in one God" of the Nicene Creed, must always be said by the priest alone. * After saying -Oremus" — "Let us pray," the celebrant pauses a while before extending his hands and .saying the Col-

lect. This New Rite is also to be observed before saying the Post - Communion

Prayer.

* In Masses celebrated with the people, the Lessons, Epistle and Gospel shall be read facing the people, either from the altar, from the ambo, or near the edge of the sanctuary area. * A qualified lector may read the Lessons and Epistle—always at the ambo or

at the edge of the sanctuary area. celebrant sits and listens.

The celebrant stands at the sedilia when giving the blessing and during the reading of the Gospel. * In the absence of a suitable lector or server, the celebrant, from the ambo or altar rails, reads the Epistle and the following chants, if these are not said by the choir or people.

POLITICAL VIEWS SIR. Having followed for some years the views expressed by the various political palties in both State and Fed-

eral spheres on the question of education in Independent Schools, and having formed my opinion of the growing strength of Communism in the Australian Labor Party, I am astonished by the front page article on the question of Justice to Independent Schools as published in "The Record" of February 11. 1965, particularly also in view of statements from authoritative sources in the Catholic Church concerning Communism and one's conscience. As your paper is the offi cial organ of the Archdiocese of Perth, any such article published on the eve of an election must necessarily be accepted as a pointer to readers, and it therefore surpasses my un. dersranding why pats on the back should have been given to both the Liberal-C.P. coalition and to the A.L.P.,

recited or sung litanically before the

Offertory after the words "Let us pray" or "Oremus" before the Offertory verse, on Sundays and Holy Days or other special occasions. The celebrant shall direct the prayer from the altar, from the ambo, or from the edge of the sanctuary, but facing the people (New Rite), [ The authorised text of the Prayer of the

Faithful is printed in a panel and the faithful are asked to cut it out and take it with them to Mass on Sundays and Holy Days.] * The celebrant remains in the centre while preparing wine and water in the chalice (New Rite). * The prayer over the offerings, i.e. the Secret Prayer, shall always be said aloud, in Latin at Latin Masses, in English at English Masses, but always without "Oremus" or "Let us pray" (English end. ing . . . for ever and ever. R. Amen; Latin ending . . . per omnia, etc.).

* No bell is prescribed for the Sanctus (New Rite). * The Doxology at the end of the Canon from the words "Per Ipsum" up to and including "per omnia saecula saeculorum. R. Amen," shall be said aloud always in Latin. Throughout the entire Doxology the celebrant lifts up the Chalice and Host for the little elevation, omitting the Signs of the Cross, and at the end genuflects only after the response Amen is given by the people. * The Embolism, Libera Nos, etc., after the Pater Noster, shall aways be said aloud, in English in English Masses and

in Latin in Latin Masses.

* The Missal is not changed after Communion. The celebrant reads the Communion Antiphon and the Communion Prayers at the middle of the altar with the book at his left (New Rite). * The Last Gospel is to be omitted from all Masses. * The Leonine Prayers after Mass are suppressed. THE HOMILY

There must be a homily on all Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation in all Masses which are celebrated with the people present. By a homily is understood (from the Sacred text) an explanation of some aspect of the readings from Holy Scripture or of some aspect of the readings from the Ordinary or Proper of the Mass of the day, taking into account the mystery which is being celebrated and the particular needs of the listeners.

with the D.L.P. just receiving a mention something like a poor relation. The band of self-sacrificing men and women who constitute the D.L.P. fighting force (this does not include myself) have taken up the cause of Christianity in the political arena in the vital struggle against Communism and certainly have claims to receive better treatment. If on questions of policy your paper does not wish to openly support these people, that scarcely justifies bending over so far backwards as to be open to

MADRAS FESTIVITIES FOR HINDU PONGAL

W

E arrived at Madras in the late afternoon, after spending 24 hours in the hard "luxury" of Indian thirdclass railway carriages. We were impressed with two things — Madras was tropically different and secondly an amazing amount of water lay in large puddles on the ground. The green land was wet with the perspiration of a passing cyclone which had swept down the east coast and claimed more than five hundred lives at Rameswaren Island and neighbouring areas on the island of Ceylon. Much wider and faster moving than Bombay, Madras city has efficient traffic and some quiet corners into which one can drive for solitude. The Indians are darker-skinned, seem less concerned with making illegal money and less interested in staring with openmouthed astonishment at European passers-by. We were fortunate to stay with the parents of a mutual student friend who is doing .

HARVEST FESTIVAL Fortunately, we were present for the Hindu Pongal, or harvest festival. This is equivalent in joy and good cheer to our Christmas festivity. Pongal, or Makara Sankranti marks the passage of the sun into the Tropic of Capricorn. On Pongal day gaily coloured shrines are dragged through the streets and showered with flowers and first fruits of the harvest are eaten; at the gigantic evening meal offered to us, we could only sample the huge ranee and quantity set before us.

ACTOR CHARGED VATICAN CITY: The brothere of the producer- director who staged the controversial drama "The Deputy" in a bookshop in Rome has been charged by police with placing the bomb which rocked Vatican City on the early morning of February 17. was Volonte Claudio charged with "intimidation with explosives." The bomb was set off in front of an unused doorway leading into the State of Vatican City near apartments of the Swiss Guard. The bearded 25-year-old actor is a brother of Gian Maria Volonte, actor-director of the play, banned in Rome because it conflicts with Ilrovisions of the concordat between Italy and the Vatican. Volonte is reported to be a member of the far-left proChinese Socialist Party of Proletarian Unity. He released a statement denying participation in the bombing and deploring the incident.

Movement Could "Fizzle Out"

HOBART: ARCHBISHOP Guilford Young of Hobart has warned

that laymen must take an active role in the ecumenical movement if it is not to "fizzle out."

cern of theologians and Church leaders. Thus, he added, the quest for unity is a duty which no Christian can shirk. It is the Vatican Council's Decree on Ecumenism, he said, which steers the Catholic Church "emphatically at this hour in history into the highway of the ecumenical movement." He said that no matter what the attitudes and practices had been in the past, everything must now be brought into line with the Church's teaching as set forth in the ecumenism decree enacted by the Council last November. THREE ADDRESSES The Archbishop gave his views in three different addresses here—two of them before predominantly nonCatholic audiences. One of the speeches was given before 40 Anglican clergymen, t wo of them bishops, gathered for a meeting of the S outhern Archdeaconry Clerical Society. Archbishop Young — who for normal dress now wears the black cassock of a parish priest instead of the episcopal soutane with purple piping and buttons— wore a black suit for his talks at the ecumenical gatherings. He said at one point that in asking pardon for the sins which split Christendom, Christians should adopt a sane and dignified approach. EMBARRASSMENT He recognised that there is a need to acknowledge guilt, but added: "It would only lead to painful embarrassment and, because not based on a scrupulous regard for the truth, it would not be true humility if any one of us should exaggerate our own defects and be too facile in our condemnation of the past. "Understanding — yes, if necessary, with frank ex pression of regret—is better than sweeping condemnation. "Our dialogue is not going to be advanced by pointing to what Catholics did to Protestants and Protestants did to Catholics in raw days and raw communities of long ago. "After all, they were raw times in general and life itself was raw."

WORD FROM WUCWO Below is an extract from a letter received recently from Md. de Pilar Bellosillo, president of the World Union of Catholic Women's Organisations, with which Women's Catholic t he League of W.A. is affiliated. Md. Bellosillo was present at the Vatican Council as an Audit ress. At the end of the session. the auditors undertook several assignments which will enable us to make a positive contribution to some of the basic questions posed in the chapter of Schema 13 devoted to the problems of the modern world. Religious and lay women auditors formed a team to study in depth three essential aspects which interest all of us: Collaboration between religious and lay women; the advancement of woman with all her attributes; questions relating to young women and girls. WUCWO has the responsibility of developing the theme on the advancement of women and of adding to the suggestions of women auditors on the other items. In addition, the auditors formed various study groups for the main problems raised by Schema 13. Having in mind the particular interest of WUCWO in marriage and family life, I was admitted to this study group. I should like to stress the fact that WUCWO should at the present time be aware of the service which she can and should give to the Church and to the world. She should contribute to the work which is being undertaken on subjects which are so important for us. Finally, WUCWO should prepare to analyse herself, following the example the Church is giving us in the Council. We must try in future programmes to make the specific purpose of WUCWO clearer, in such a way that we may answer the questions: WUCWO. . . Who are you? What do you say of yourself?

The hundreds of Scouts and Cubs with their Australian national flags and troop and pack flags flying, with 'their multi-coloured scarves and badges—the Cubs with their green caps with stars glinting, the senior Scouts' maroon berets and shoulder tabs, the Rovers' green berets and shoulder tabs— made a very colourful and impressive display. During the ceremony a Scout, Richard Curtin, from t he 1st Nollamara Troop, repeated the Scout Promise aver the microphone, with all Scouts and Scouters joining in. The Scout Law was read by the District Scoutmaster. Roger Hodgson. Then Cub Alex Polglaze, of the St. Don Bosco Gold Pack, stepped up to the microphone and repeated the Cub's Promise, with all the Cubs joining in. The Cub Law was read by Lady Cub master Ursula Munden, of the 1st North Beach (St. Gerard's) Pack. The highlight of the ceremony was a tape-recording of a message given by the late Lord Baden Powell on his 80th birthday to Scouts and Cubs throughout the world. Lord Baden Powell said to the boys: "If you stick to your Scout and Cub Law and Promise throughout life, it will carry you through all the trouble you will ever meet." An address by Mr. Hilton J. Boyce, Commissioner for Rover Scouts in Western Australia, followed. Mr. Boyce said he had known Baden Powell per sonally and what a very fine man he had been, and for the boys to remember that they belonged to a worldwide family ten million strong — a world-wide brotherhood of Scouts, members of all nations. Mr. Boyce also asked the Parents and Friends to get right behind the groups and help all they could. If not as Scouters, there were plenty of other ways they could help. The march past and salute was taken by the Chief Commissioner for W.A., Mr. V ernon Dawe, M.B.E.

She said on Sunday: "Lay missionaries, especially those prepared to teach, are desperately needed in New Guinea.

CHURCH RESUMES WORK IN CONGO

MISSION NOTES

By . . . Father Joseph Ceuppens

Leopoldville, The Congo: The Catholic Church in the Congo is resuming her activity in the strife-torn areas of the Congo slowly and with difficulty . _

By Rev. Father W. J. Foley

APOSTOLATE WHILE THE WAR GOES ON AT VINH-LONG, about eighty miles from Saigon, a special centre has trained fifty local lay missionaries to prepare non-Christians for Christianity. The centre trains boys and young men for s everal months. Each one then promises to serve as a lay missionariy for six or 12 months and is sent to live in a fraternity of four or five members, situated in non-Christian hamlets. Their work is simply to live as exemplary Christians, helping everyone in all possible ways, teaching the children how to read and write, speaking about Christianity to anyone who shows interest in it and so creating an atmosphere favourable to evangelisation. They live on only seven shillings a day each. There are at present five fraternities and it is intended to found many more.

PROPAGANDA PREFECT AT SAINT'S TOMB VISITING the tomb of St. Francis Xavier in Goa, Cardinal Agagianian made a short speech in which he said: No words can express the joy of our heart in being here at the tomb of the great patron of the Missions, and, in the name of His Holiness Pope Paul VI, of offering our prayers for the success of all those who preach the Gospel in the mission lands of the world. In a particular way, it touches my heart, as director of the worldwide missionary effort of the Catholic Church, to be here in Goa, with its long missionary history, and at the tomb of one who has been named the Apostle of the Indies. WhenIam at home in Rome, I must tell you how it is my custom very often to visit the famed Church of the Gesu where enshrined for veneration is an arm of this great missionary; from that shrine I go away refreshed and encouraged always in the ceaseless work of the Missions."

HE SAID IT. . HIS HOLINESS POPE PAUL VI received a group of 150 missionaries on their way to Africa. The Holy Father said: "If all sons and daughters of the great Catholic family have the right to implore the blessing of the Common Father, those who abandon their family and country in order to go to carry the good news of salvation to their brethren far away have even a greater right to do so!" The Pope then exhorted the missionaries to be good workers of the Gospel, knowing that they are contributing towards the spread of the Kingdom of God and mindful that the Pope is always with them and that eVery victory they obtain is a joy for him and for the whole Church.

THE course of the Church is never smooth. It is the actual Way of the Cross or the life of Christ lived in the 20th century. Here in the United States, we are free from persecution and widespread poverty. Here poverty means a family income of 3,000 dollars a year. We are blessed with the greatest prosperity in the history of the world. We have so much and poor missionaries have so little. The Holy Father says that aid to them must be equalised. That is why he made the Society for the Propagation of the Faith his own society for collecting alms. You may hawe a favourite missionary society or a certain area of the world you like best, but remember a father must provide for all his children. So does the Holy Father. He aids all and in all places. And the great advantages of sending a sacrifice to the

beneficiary in your will, are: (1) No investment is made from your alms; (2) Every cent goes to the poor immediately under the direction of the Holy Father. You just cannot beat this kind of charity. If there WERE a better way of begging for the poor than through the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, we would be using it.

Slow away, Pan Eddy was at the rear of the field when it settled down. It was not until heads were turned for home that he stretched out, then he came home strongly. He should soon make amends, even if the distance Little is a little further. Linda led into the straight, but quickly gave in when collared.

Bunbury - trained King Legend ran a fair race to finish second; on the run he is likely to win a small race soon. He came in for support at long prices. Channel Lass and Rowtana never looked like winning.

Likely Stayer HAVING his first start in a race further than a mile, Stanleo won the 101-furlong Coogee Handicap (1) in excellent style. Again Checkerspot failed badly; the heavy support for him caused the winner's price to drift from 6-4 to 3-1. It now seems that Checker spot joins the ranks of those horses who do their best only when allowed to have their own way out in front. In the long run, such horses are no good to punters. With me, he was "sacked" twa starts back. In running second, Chanorah was unlucky to strike such a promising young horse as the winner. Outside of Miss Ava (she will improve), it could pay to forget the others.

Trainer s Feat TWO of the three horses trainer saddled up by Harold Campbell ran first and second in the six-furlong City Handicap, a race which bore a most open appearance. Fairy Port had a good lead in the straight, but her stablemate Operio had little trouble in cutting her down. Both of these horses drifted in the betting to almost double their opening quotes. Most money was for the t op weight, Count Sputnik, A who ran third without ever looking a danger.

THE

A LOOK BACK ON THE FESTIVAL

N the last six weeks, we have been surrounded by so many musical trees that there has been very little space to consider the music of the Festival as a whole. It showed several revolutionary departures and the first basic attempt to fulfil one of the fundamentals of a mu sic festival, namely, a wide and deep extension of cultiural experience.

undiluted Traditionally, each or modern music has been regarded as a sure-fire method of emptying a concert hall. The solid support of a hard core of musiclovers has demonstrated that they are at least abreast of our musical mentors. The vision and hard work of Frank Callaway, who was largely responsible for the each concerts, was well justified by their great success. *

GREATER S UCCESS

The 20th century series w as less well attended, but was comparatively a greater success. The television panel of critics was astonished that Perth could devise, perform and support such a mturc. Stripped of its patronage, it is the first acknowledgement that we are, musically, perhaps the least backward of all Australian States. The series owed almost as much to Trevor Jones' commentary as to the performers and it is to be hoped that this type of informal musical education can be repeated next year. The two series involved so much music-making, however, that many performances suffered from lack of rehearsal time, so it is to three concerts outside the series to which we must award the palm, namely William Heibert's Schubert cycle, the Adelaide Wind Quartet and the Pauline O'Connor recital. The most difficult problem remaining seems to be catering for those musiclovers, outside the hard core, who are floating between light and serious music. Potentially, this is an enormous audience which could revolutionise the financial position of our music. The two Promenade Concerts devised for them were

a failure; the central idea of informal music under the stars is a good one, but the choice of programme and the unimaginative way of carrying it out were important factors in the disappointing result. V ARIETY The festival proved that it is not necessary to keep to the traditional idea of "balanced" programmes for concerts. "Variety" has been mandatory, always provided the choice was limited to works composed between and "Jupiter" Mozart's Rachmaninov's Third Piano Concerto. This festival has flung, open doors, revealing al-

most infinite musical vistas. The use of local talent in seldom-heard works could be extended; the Guild of Young Artists, for example, might be invited to put on one of Schubert's operas which, even today, rarely get performed. The only major complaint from the public was there was really too much. The festival called for stamina, it is true, and I can claim some mild distinction as the only critic to cover everything from soup to nuts, apart from the ballet. Another distinction was to be one of the few to escape unscathed from spirited counter-attack from irate musicians.—H.T.G.

TOUCH Of SADNESS

T

HE 1965 Festival of Perth ended in a blaze of glory with John Hall deserved-nsworth Far ly the star.

Despite Erst-class singing by soloists and choir of difficult fiendishly their parts, the performance left me in exactly the same frame of mind. Thunderous and prolonged applause paid tribute to the great debt which we all owe John Farnsworth Hall; may his retirement be happy, but not so complete as to lose the pleasure of his genial presence altogether.—H.T.G.

BACKSTAGE .. A

CTRESS Mrs. Peter O'Shaugh nessy, wife of the actor who made a solo appearance during the Festival of Perth, follows a recipe for success given to Dame Sybil Thorndyke. When she was studying in London, Mrs. O'Shaughnessy met Dame Sybil and asked her formula for success. She told her that George Bernard Shaw had advised her that to be a great actress one must be a good mother first. His view was that with the knowledge of raising a family comes understanding to tackle any role handed to you in the theatre. Mrs. O'Shaughnessy is at present helping her husband with his production of "The Diary Of a Madman," which opened in Sydney on Wednesday. "I act as his director, critic and wardrobe mistress," she said. "I'm afraid I'm a very tough critic. I

DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS This week we began the important season of Lent. Our Lord, after His baptism, prepared Himself for His public life by going into the desert and fasting for forty days and forty nights. We, likewise, should prepare ourselves for the great Feast of Easter by fasting, prayer and works of charity. Even though you are not bound under pain of sin to fast, you should all make some sacrifice. I think it is best to make some small sacrifice and keep doing it right throughout lent. When I was young I used to give up eating loll ies during Lent. It was often very hard but when you think of why you are making the little sacrifice, it becomes much easier. I f you haven't already decided on what your sacrifice will be, I hope you will do something about it soon. This Sunday more changes will be made in the Mass. I hope you will all answer the prayers in a loud voice and l isten attentively to any instructions given by the priest. Remember that if each one does his part properly, things will be much easier for everyone. This will be your last chance to enter the colouring competition. I hope to have another one for you next week. God bless you all. BROTHER JUNIPER. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••".

validity of the election would not have been affected in any case after the event. Nevertheless, Pope Stephen X at once sent Cardinal Hildebrand (later Pope Gregory VII) to Germany to notify the Empress-Regent of his election. She in no w ay disapproved of the proceedings. POSITION OF "POPE BENEDICT X" Q.: What was the position of Pope Benedict X who was installed by the military as a rival to Pope Stephen X? R.: After the death of Pope Stephen X in 1058, and therefore not as a "rival" but as a "successor," Bishop John of Velletri was appointed Pope under the name of Benedict X, as a kind of puppet who would do their bidding, but a group of nobles of Tusculum, led by Count Gregory, who had marched on Rome with an army to enforce their choice. But the cardinals and bishops, protesting against this irreguiar procedure, left the city. Benedict X was not validly elected and his position was merely that of a "Pretender to the Papacy," not that of a true Pope at all.

The Catholic Douay Version, which follows the Jewish Alexandrian Greek translation, has: "My heart shall cry to Moab, the CASE OF POPE bars thereof shall flee to Segor, a heifer of three NICHOLAS II old."

Q.: What particularly puzThe lawful Pope Nicholas zles me is the reference I I was then canonically into the -heifer of three stalled, and all was well years old." again.

R.: That is a puzzle to all biblical scholars. The Hebrew text has the words "Eglath Shelishiyah," which mean literally "a heifer of three years old." The Hebrews, however, sometimes spoke figuratively of places as if they were animals. The "Revised Standard Version," therefore, gives the Hebrew expression as a proper name saying: "her fugatives flee to Zoar, to Eglath Shelishiyah." But the difficulty is that no other case of such usage, which would literally mean "Eglath the Third," can be found. Figuratively, the "heifer of three years old" could mean one not yet broken in, so that the reference would be to Zoar or Segor as a strong and hinterto unconquered town to which the boundaries of Moab extend, or to which the Moadites fled for safety when disaster came upon them. Monsignor Knox tries t o combine these various ideas with the translation: "My heart laments for Moab once ringed with walled cities as far as Segor: Segor that now moans like a fullgrown heifer." But he adds in a footnote that, according to the Hebrew, the word translated as "bars" or "boundaries" could mean "fugitives" while the expression "a calf of three years old" might conceal a proper name. We can apply Alexander Pope's words here: "Who shall decide when doctors disagree?" But as good a translation as any would seem to be: "My heart laments for Moab, whose boundaries extend to the hitherto unconquered city of Zoar (or Sagor)."

PROGRESS IN KNOWLEDGE Interested, Nymboida, N.S.W.: Q.: Do you hold that for 400 years souls have been going to hell for not believing creation began 4004

R.: No one goes to hell because of a mistake made in quite good faith. And, as St. Augustine remarked in the fourth century, commemorating on Genesis, the fundamental truths God

wished to reveal still stands, however men may differ in their understanding of the way in which they are presented or of the chronology of the account. If anyone has gone to hell for dying

in a state of tuirepented mortal sin—and no one can go there except for unrepented grave violations of conscience—there can be no subsequent transfer from hell to heaven.

years ago? R.: No. it was in 1654, 300 years ago, that the Protestant Archbishop Ussher thought he had been able to calculate from the Bible that creation occurred in 4004 B.C. or 5968 years ago; and that became quite a popular idea about the Bible. But that had no bearing on the faith in the actual contents of the Bible. In the 13th century, 400 years before Archbishop Ussher came along, the Catholic St. Thomas Aquinas taught that the real meaning of the Bible cannot be anything in accordance with what reason can show to be demonstrably false; and that, without detriment to the substance of the Faith, holy and learned men have differed according to the knowledge at their disposal about how secondary details of the Bible should be understood. It is quite normal that biblical studies should undergo modification with the progress of knowledge; and people no more went to hell for thinking Archbishop Ussher might be right in his calculation than for thinking the Ptolemaic system of astronomy to be true— the best that could be deCopernicus, vised—before with the aid of the newlytelescope, proinvented duced a better system. EFFECT ON "SOULS IN HELL" Q.: Do those who went to hell because of their mistake go to heaven, now that the truth is known?
