YUGOSLAVIA PASSES NEW LAW GOVERNING RELIGIOUS RIGHTS

INDONESIAN VISITOR
By Patrick Riley from Belgrade
Yugoslavia has enacted a new "fundamental law" governing the rights of religion in the nation. This law is primarily a stopgap measure to bring the law into c onformity with Yugoslavia's federal constitution of 1963. The opposition of religious bodies to provisions of broader legislation on the status of religion has delayed enactment of more substantial changes. But broader legislation wi l l be ready sometime this month the N.C.W.C. News Service was told by Mato M. Radulovic, vice c hairman of the federal Commission for Religious Affairs. While most of the changes brought about by the newly enacted amendments are matters of terminology, penal sanctions for fines or imprisonment are also provided for various breaches of the law. Thirty days in gaol or a fine equivalent to about £ Al2 can be imposed on anyone who "bars citizens from participating in religious rites or other manifestations of religious sentiments," or anyone who restricts the rights of a citizen "because of his religious convictions, because of his membership in some religious faith or some religious community, or because of participation in the performance of religious rites and other manifestations of religion sentiments." The same punishment awaits anyone who: "Collects donations for religious purposes outside places designated for the collection of donations without permission" of the competent local civil authorities; Holds "processions and other religious rites out-

COLUMBAN (O-FOUNDER ARRIVES CATHER JOHN BLOW' ICK, co-founder of St. Columban's Mission Society, with the late Bishop Edward Galvin, arrived in Perth by air on Wednesday for a short visit. Father Blol,vick, who c elebrated the Golden Jubilee of his ordination to the priesthood last year, has been visiting the ous houses of the society variy in Australia and New Zealand as part of a world tour. His last visit was in 1920 When there were only three Columban priests in the country. There are now 46 Columban priests from Australian and New Zealand working in the mission fields of South America, The Philippines, Burma, Korea, Japan and Fiji. While in Perth, Father Blowick will stay at the Society's only house in W.A. at Mt. Lawley.
side the places mentioned (in this law) . . . without permission" of the competent local civil authorities. Accepts as a seminarian "a person who has not completed the compulsory elementary education." In the previous law, which was passed in 1953, these offences were not specifically mentioned. The old law contented itself with specifying that aside from breaches constituting a criminal offence, infractions of the law would be punished by a fine of up to £ A6 or by imprisonment of up to 15 days. The new law in effect abolishes the gaol term for those accepting children for religious instruction without the permission of both parents. The old £ A6 fine is maintained in this case, however. The amended law abolishes a provision of the old legislation enabling a court to close a seminary for from one to ten years
because of an "abuse of religious teaching." However, "abuse of religious teaching" — in effect antiState propaganda — remains a criminal offence. Conspicuously absent from the new law is the suggested requirement that the permission of both parents be required for the baptism of a child. At present, the permission of only one parent is required. Another notable absence from the new law is a provision in the government's original draft bill that would have restricted the religious press to dealing with what the government itself judged to be religious matters. In practice this has meant that religious newspapers cannot publish articles dealing with the traditional Christian condemnation of abortion and the Church's teaching on certain other moral problems. Both these provisions had encountered strong opposition from religious authorities.
Dr. R. F. KATIDGAN talks with HIS GRACE the Archbishop and FATHER W. FOLEY, the diocesean director of Pontifical Mission Aid Societies.
POPE ASKS COMMISSION FOR AN EARLY ANSWER DOPE PAUL VI has asked the special commission studying family planning and population problems to give an answer as soon as possible. The highly secret group, whose membership has not been announced, gathered at the Domus Maria Conference Centre for three days of discussions. Subsections of the commission have been meeting in various parts of Rome in the. course of the past year in preparation for this initial plenary session. In a speech to the c ommission, Pope Paul said that the problem was urgent and the Church must give clear guidance to Catholics. He told them: "It is possible that the vivid
awareness of the need to let certain problems mature imposes reasonable delay on you. "But we insistently ask you not to lose sight of the urgency of a situation that demands very clear indications from the Church and its supreme authority. cannot

MORE ON EDUCATION SIR, Your inveterate correspondent Paul Donnelly is neither accurate nor brief. The New South Wales A.L.P. Government Advisory Bursary Scheme was bitterly opposed by the A.L.P. Federal Executive led by Mr. F. E. Chamberlain. The only reason New South Wales was left alone was Y OUR
because the New South Wales A.L.P. State Executive ( a) drew attention to A.L.P. unity tickets with Communist in union elections in Victoria which were apparently unnoticed by the A.L.P. Executive; (b) Federal threatened to "split" if pressure were kept up by the Federal Executive on thc education matter. The only essential difference between the 1963 A.L.P. Federal Conference policy statement on private schools and the bitter West Australian A.L.P. motion in total opposition to any equality is phrasing. Both statements are clearly against any equal for private treatment schools or their pupils. Your correspondent's optimistic personal developinents and interpretations do nothing to improve the A.L.P. policy which cut no ice with West Australian voters at the last State election. I hope that no one will be misled by Mr. Donnelly's

It is by no means clear, on internal evidence anyhow, that the Hierarchy did "consider thoroughly all existing translations of the Mass;" what we have looks like something compiled in zealous haste to be immediately serviceable, and to be amended at leisure. Haste, for example, would explain the odd omission of the '"totiusque" from the Orate, tratres; we have "and of His Holy Church," where we should have, and will nc doubt eventually get "and of all His holy Church."

SIR,
STANDARD OF T.V.
The extravagant praise occasioned by a current television commercial sponsored by Ampol Petrol is a measure of the poverty of writing for Australian teleIt is not hard for a couple of writers with a gift for doggerel to write the kind of revue topical wisecracks of which the programme is made up, and to add to crudities which occasion the comment that those who like that kind of thing should not advertise it.
Its merit lies in the professionalism of its cast, which has absorbed adequately the valuable television trick of looking straight at the camera with unwinking eyes and which can time, mime and move with the skill of the experienced variety artist. It is unfortunate that this ability is associated with such poor material. The valuable point arising is the standard of Australian television. I had the privilege of working in some slight degree with the late Senator Vincent on his Committee's report on Australian Television. The Federal Government and television interests, including the A.B.C., seem to be committed to a policy of burying the report. If it were implemented and its concept of an Australian Television Council created, much could be done for a medium which tends to triviality, smut, sex, sadism and sheer sordidness in the more accessible hours of the programmes. , Parents should absorb the manifest fact that almost the whole of the peak hour times, both A.B.G. and corn• mercial, are taken up with trivialities which codemn the use of television in this country as one of the greatest prostitutions of scientific discovery in the history of our times. Agencies such as the Children's Films and Television Council are attacking the position. Australian conferences are taking place. I commend this work to Catholic parents as being one of those things in which they can make common cause with parents of children in State schools to reform a medium which is attacking both our moral and intellec tual standards. Yours, etc., PAUL DONNELLY, Claremont.

The 100th Archbishop Of Canterbury
E MOST REV. AND R IGHT HON. ARTHUR MICHAEL RAMSEY, who arrived in Perth on Tuesday, was elected as the hundredth Archbishop of Canterbury on June 5, 1961, and was enthroned on June 27 of that year. Dr. Ramsey was born on November 14, 1904. His father, the late Arthur Stanley Ramsey, was University Lecturer in mathematics at Cambridge, and became President of Magdalene College. His pater. nal grandfather was an Anglican clergyman. He thus has traditions of varying forms of Christian ministry in his ancestry, though he himself was brought up in the High Church tradition.
ral, and Professor of Divinity in the University. From 1950 to 1952 he was Regius Professor of Divinity at Cambridge University, and he was nominated for election as Bishop of Durham in 1952. After four years at Durham he became Archbishop of York, and was enthroned in York Minster on April 25, 1956. His appointment to be Archbishop of Canterbury was announced early in 1961. From 1932 to 1952 Dr. Ramsey was Examining Chaplain—i.e., one who examines candidates for the ministry—to the Bishop of Chester, to the Bishop of Durham and finally to the Bishop of London. He has been Select Preacher to both Oxford and Cam-bridge Universities. As Bishop of Durham he was one of the bishops who are entitled by right to a seat in the House of Lords. It was also in his capacity as Bishop of Dur ham that he, together with the Bishop of Bath and Wells, attended the Queen throughout the Coronation Service in Westminster Abbey.
He was educated at Repton, under the headmastership of Dr. Geoffrey Fisher —his predecessor as Archbishop of Canterbury—and at Magdalene College, Cambridge, where he was a Scholar and took a Second Class in the Classical Tripos and a First Class in Theology. He was president of the Cambridge Union in 1926. From Cambridge, Dr. Ramsey went to Cuddesdon Theological College, and was ordained a deacon in 1928 and a priest in 1929. He spent two years as a curate at Liverpool Parish Church, and was then SubWarden of Lincoln Theological College from 1930 to 1936. For the following two years he held the curiously named post of Lecturer of Boston Parish Church in Lincolnshire. IN 1939 he was appoint ed Vicar of St. Benedict's Church, Cambridge, but ne did not hold this incumbency long, as in 1940 he went to Durham to be Canon of Durham Cathed-
the Anglican and Orthodox Churches. At the end of July in the same year he risited Moscow and All the Russias, and was able to discuss relations between the Anglican and Russian Ortho• dox Churches. Dr. Ramsey went to America for a three weeks' visit in October, 1962, to preach in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Washington, to visit Columbia and Princeton Universities and lecture at the Seabury-Western Theological Seminary, and to attend the meeting of the House of Bishops of the P rotestant Episcopal Church in the U.S.A. at Columbia, South Carolina, and to conduct a quiet day for the bishops.
• Co-operation
• Author Dr. Ramsey is the author of a number of theological works, and has a great reputation as a theologian. His books are distinguished by their profound learning and their great clarity of expression. As a High Churchman, he has always placed a special emphasis on the Catholic tradition in the Church of England, and he was chairman of the Committee of the 1958 Lambeth Conference which drew up a report on "The Holy Bible; Its Authority and Message." Dr. Ramsey has travelled t o many parts of the world in connection with his deep concern for Christian
ARCHBISHOP MICHAEL RAMSEY Unity, and as Archbishop of York he led a delegation of eight Anglican Churchmen to a theological conference in Moscow in July, 1956, with members of the Russian Orthodox Church. In 1959 he visited the United States, and in the summer of 1960 he journeyed to Africa. One of Dr. Ramsey's first major overseas engagements since his enthronement as Arch bishop of Canterbury was

While expressing optimism at the possibilities of easing; the Church's practical position by means of a VaticanCzechoslovak agree ment, Cardinal Beran said nobody should expect a radical change in the communists' basic anti-religious policy. An agreement, he said, will only ease restrictions on the Church insofar as the government thinks such an action to be in its political and economic interest. He said that it is even possible that at the same time that it agrees to end certain restrictions on Church activities, the government may step up its ideological war on religion. The Cardinal stressed that any agreement must be worked out in detail and worded specifically. He said the Reds would interpret to their advantage an agreement drawn up" in general terms.

• Scholarship On March 21, 1962, Dr: Ramsey announced that in future the degrees would only be given in virtue of contributions to scholarship, and not in virtue of nomination to ecclesiastical office, as has been the custom in the past. The degrees would then be brought into line with university standards. Dr. Ramsey is an honorary D.D. of Durham, Edinburgh, Cambridge, Leeds and Hull Universities, and and an honorary Fellow of Magdalene College. Cambridge.

In May, 1963, he visited. Belgium to lecture on "Christian Spirituality and the Modern World" to the Cercle Oecumenique at the Catholic University of Louvain. This was the first occasion on which an Archbishop of Canterbury has been invited to speak at a Catholic University. A further step towards Anglican-Catholic co-operation was taken on January 3, 1964, when Dr. Ramsey announced that he had set up a Commission on Catholic Relations. During August 1963, the Archbishop had led the Church of England delegates at the Anglican Ccngress which was held at Toronte. The Congress, which was attended by 1,000 delegates — bishops, clergy and laity from 73 countries throughout the world — discussed the Anglican Church's mission to the world on the religious, political and cultural frontiers. Dr. Ramsey is a distinguished preacher and has been a formidable debater in Convocation and Church
Assembly. His speeches are outspoken and often marked by delightful humour, and he is never afraid of expressing his opinion on controversial issues. His ambition as Archbishop of Canterbury is "to bring the Christian message home to all the people by preaching, teaching, writing and using radio and TV and personal influence." He has also declared that he would wish the Church to ask the State for a greater degree of autonomy to manage its own affairs, and as far as his own Archbishopric is concerned he has said that he wishes to be known chiefly as a scholar and a pastoral Archbishop. One major change which he has brought about concerns the awarding of the Lambeth Degree of Doctor of Divinity. These "honoris causa" degrees have been awarded by successive Archbishops since they were first introduced by an Act of 1534.

BALDY THE section called "All life would become a prayer" includes a unique treatment of three pages called "The Bald Head." The first paragraph runs like this:

HOUGH THIS COLUMN DOES NOT ORDINARILY REVIEW BOOKS, ONE RECENTLY WAS GIVEN TO ME BY A MARRIED COUPLE WHICH DESERVES COMMENT.
IT GOES BY THE SIMPLE TITLE OF "PRAYER." Knowing the married couple as I do, the first glance at the title made me a little suspicious. It was either their subtle way of telling me that I needed them, prayers that is, which of course is admitted, or it might have been meant as an encouragement to do more of it, which is also acknowledged. Actually, it was a sharing of treasure. They had received so much from it as individuals and married that they felt it might be of benefit to others. They felt so strongly about it that they were purchasing gift copies for friends and this from a tight family budget. Greater love than this no budgeteer can have.

"The lecture bored me; Ihad time to think, And I thought, Lord, that You knew this dome well. It hasn't been out of your sight in years and every day You say 'yes' when old Mother Nature asks permission to take a few more hairs from the rapidly clearing field. You said in Your Gospel: 'Not one hair of your head falls without my permission.' " In a succeeding paragraph it has this to say: -Lord, You Who make bald heads, but above all beautiful lives . . . see that at no timeI forget Your presence. I don't ask You to bless what I myself have decided to do, but give me the grace to discover and to live what You have dreamed for me."

THE word "prayer" has many meanings and has received many definitions from theologians and scholars. It has been expressed and felt by people in a thousand different ways. This book is an attempt to offer insights into the ordinary and extraordinary events in the lives of people and their relation to God. For instance, if there is one thing in common use today is the telephone. Here is an insight into its Christian use:

New Economic Programme A COMMITTEE of government repre sentatives, employers and workers, set up at the dem and of Catho lic-oriented labour unions in Bogota, has proposed a new tax and 'economic programme to aid Colombia's low-income groups. The government set up the committee after a threat in January by the Catholic labour unions to stage a strike protest national against the high cost of living and other economic hardships.
INDIA No Power For Communists DESPITE their gains in the March 4 elections, the communists will not return to power in Kerala, India's most Christian State, which fell under Red rule between 1957 and 1959. Governor V. V. Gin of Kerala has told the central government that no party is capable of forming a government with majority support in the new legislature. Therefore the Stafe will remain under central government control, imposed last September when the ruling Congress party split ane was defeated in a legislative vote.
SPAIN
THE SECRETARY of the co-ordinating organisation for the Spanish lay apostolate has declared that the creation of a social consciousness among Catholics is an urgent task in his country, Enrique Miret Magdalena said his organisation 'should not evade questions dealing with education, journalism and theology as well as -hunger, crime and population growth." "We cannot let the man in the street make the accusation that Catholics do not take an interest in the problems of society," he said. Miret said Church leaders must create a consciousness among Catholics "of the basic problems that face human beings," adding that such a consciousness must respect the individal freedom of Christians and non-Christians.

POPE MEETS ROTARIANS
VATICAN CITY: Pope Paul VI had words of praise and advice for Italy's Rotary Club during an audience for its members. Tile Pope praised the fraternal and communal aims of the Rotary Club. He noted at the same time that since the clubs include members of different ideologies, they avoid imposing any profession of faith or thought on them. The Pope recalled that in past years Church authorities were worried about possible problems for Catholics who became Rotarians. He added: "But fortunately . you demonstrate the wisdom of the Rotary here. Precisely because it is open to various sectors it knows its limits, thus respecting the thought of its members and not re fusing the fact that sometimes authoritative voices may bring the testimony of philosophy and of the Christian message."

VATICAN CITIZEN IS CARDINAL'S VALET

A West Australian has made his final profession in the Congregation of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate in Canada. He is Brother Terrence Francis McLaughlin who made his profession at the Holy Rosary Scholasticate, Ottawa, on March 7. Brother McLaughlin is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul McLaughlin of Hardy Road, Bassendean. Born in Pemberton, he attended both St. Joseph's Convent and St. Paul's Marist Brothers' School in Northam before the family moved to Perth. Here he attended St. Michael's School, Bassendean, and later Christian Brothers' High School, Highgate. After three years at Highgate he came into contact with the Oblate Fathers at Fremantle and then entered St. Joseph's Oblate Juniorate at Geelong, Victoria. Having completed his secondary education he then entered the Oblate Novitiate in Sorrento, Victoria and pronounced his first vows in March 1962. Following his novitiate he was sent to Canada to begin his studies for the priesthood. Now, after having completed three years of temporary vows, Brother McLaughlin has pronounced his final vows, thus binding himself for life as an Oblate of Mary Immaculate. Present at the ceremony was his sister Therese, who travelled from Perth for the occasion. In December Brother McLaughlin will return to Australia to complete his theological studies at the Oblate seminary at Springvale, Viztoria. On the way home he will attend the ordination of his brother John in Rome.

EditorHistorian bies
BRISBANE: Rev. Dr. Patrick Joseph Flood, who died at Lourdes Home, Toowoomba, recently, was editor to BrisLeader" "Catholic bane's from 1951 to 1959 and a respected Church historian. Born at Coat Bridge, Scotland, on September 4, 1885, he inherited Irish blood from both his parents. He was educated by the Jesuits at Glasgow and at 13 entered Blairs Junior Seminary, near Aberdeen, proceeding from there to Scots College, Rome, where he was ordained in 1909 for the Glasgow Archdiocese. He received his Doctorate in Divinity from the Gregorian University and followed a further course at the Institute of Biblical Studies. He returned to Scotland from Rome in 1912 and taught at the Diocesan Seminary at Glasgow until 1917. He was next a curate at the slum parish of Bridgeton and while there a parish social club brought lecturers like G. K. Chesterton, Hilaire Belloc, and Father Vincent McNabb, 0.P., to address the men of the parish. . BOYS CHAPLAIN Next he was chaplain at the Good shepherd Convent. Albeth, and to a boys' re formatory. He later became a theology professor at Fort Augustus Benedictine Abbey near Inverness, and then became chaplain to the family of the late Eric Gill, noted artist and typographer, whom he encouraged to write his autobiography. At this period he also was active in journalism, being closely associated with the editing of the London "Catholic Herald." When some of his relatives migrated to Australia, Dr. Flood accepted the invitation of Archbishop Duhig to edit the "Leader." In 1959 he became chaplain to Nudgee Junior College, where he remained until 1963 when his health began to fail.—R.I.P.

Auslandssekretariat was formed to assist German Catholics who have emigrated. There are more than 50, 000 German speaking Catholics in Australia and German Catholic centres have been formed in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. They all received financial help from the German body which has sent 150 German priests overseas, most of them to Latin America. Father Johannes Krewenka, former chaplain of the migrant camp at Bonegilla, had already found 540 German-speaking families looking for a German priest. These families, he said, were too far away from Father Lepartz to receive full benefit from his ministry. "We in the Auslandssekretariat do not care so much about the upkeep of German customs, German language and so on," said Father Wittenauer in an interview. "The most important task for us is to offer German migrants the opportunity to carry on their spiritual lives despite their lack of national language." He added that though Australia would require more German priests, the lack of them in his homeland made it difficult to send more here for this work. Father Wittenauer will visit Honolulu, Los Angeles, Mexico and Lima on his group's work before returning home.

REVOLUTIONARY IDEA All this may sound simple enough to Catholics in a nation like Australia, raised in a "democratic" religion and educated in their obligation to support their parish. In Spain, however, the idea- is almost revolutionary. Since Catholicism is the religion established in Spain, priests receive a monetary allowance from the state. Individual contributions "extras." were Sometimes they were given in a spirit of charity, but many times they were given to secure personal privileges. These contributions were necessary to support much of the Church's work. The idea that each Catholic should give voluntarily some of his income to the Church is completely new here, and there is some concern regarding its acceptance.

tribute large sums will not receive public recognition. Before the Franco regime, during the period of the Spanish Republic, Catholics generously supported the Church while government assistance was suspended. There is some question now whether this generosity will again be evident even as the government support continues—whether Catholics will have sufficient motivation to continue their financial help. Perhaps Archbishop Carimiro Morcillo of Madrid had this last question in mind when he said in a pastoral letter: "Yours is the obligation and the honour to make it possible for the Church to have all the necessary means to build churches, to help the poor and to devote men to your service."
N.Z. NUNS WANT HABITS MODERNISth WELLINGTON, New Zealand: A survey of nuns has showed strong support for modernising religious habits to make them more comfortable, hygienic, practical and adaptable for the work of the nun in the modern world. The general consensus of Sisters favoured habits of simpler design, with fewer layers of material, less starch and perhaps more colour, but retaining the dignity which should characterise the Religious habit. "We're miles behind the times—we need updating," was a comment typical of the Sisters' views. HAMPER TEACHING Most Sisters considered that present habits are not always suitable for nuns' work, saying their voluminous skirts hampered them in teaching sport and physical education. It was widely agreed that veils obstruct the view while driving. "The Sister wearing a habit more in keeping with modern dress would be able to work with greater ef-
ficiency, ease and comfort," said one nun. "In car driving, certainly with more safety." It was also said that simpler habits would be cheaper, less trouble to make—"they would cut down hours of sewing," a Sister said—and quicker and easier to launder. ENJOY THE

PRIEST 1 ADDRESSES ANGLICANS
BRISBANE: An Anglican cousin, Rev. David Shand, was among the 700 people while listened who Father Cyril Shand, Administrator of St. Patrick's Church, Valley, gave the first of a series of Lenten addresses by various of speakers Christian denominations in St. John's Anglican Cathedral, Brisbane. It was the first time in Queensland that a had priest Catholic spoken in a non-Catholic church, but Father E. J. Stormon, S.J., had given a similar address in Perth's Anglican Cathedral last year. Father Shand's address was not part of a liturgical service. It was given in accord with the Decree on Ecumenism, which states that it is fitting and desirable that Catholics should, in certain circumstances, be associated with their separated brethren in prayers for unity. He explained the principles of ecumenism as laid down by the Second Vatican Council. Among the churchmen present were five friars of the Anglican Society of St. Francis.

Catholicism Is On The Improve In Scandinavia • By Father Paul X D'Auchamp COPENHAGEN: A JESUIT SCHOLAR SAID HERE HE SEES MANY INDICATIONS THAT CA. THOLICISM IS BEING MORE READILY ACCEPTED BY SCANDINAVIANS, E NDING MORE THAN THREE CENTURIES OF DISTRUST TOWARDS ALI, THINGS CATHOLIC. Father Heinrich Roos, S.J., director of the Institute of Mediaeval Studies at the University of Copenhagen, commented on the standing of Catholicism during an interview with a Catholic paper. The interview was widely reprinted in other Danish papers. TURNING POINT The turning point, said kather Roos, came at the end of the 19th century with the conversion of Danish poet Johannes Jorgensen and again in 1924 when novelist Sigrid Undset became a Catholic in Sweden. "The Scandinavian counti ies are realising the universal reality of Catholicism," he said. "One has only to recall the influence of the Popes such as Pius XII and especially John XXIII, or to recall the effect produced in Scandinavia by the death of President Kennedy. "Through these men it was made clear that Catholicism is very much a realit:f to be counted in the modern world. Imperceptibly it has created a change of climate." Father Roos said many of the old prejudices are still evident and can only be overcome by slow and patient work. On the other hand, he said Catholics in Scandinavia are becoming
more ecumenical - minded, especially since some Reformers' legitimate criticisms of the Church are being acknowledged by the Second Vatican Council. UNIMPORTANT "The greatest hindrance to ecumenical relations," he continued, "is the fact that tne mEjority of Protestants look upon Catholics as an unimportant group with which there is no useful reason to talk. "Secondly, it is hard to communicate with some Protestant bodies, especially those imbued with modern idealistic philosophy. Many of them have left the firm basis of the Reformers' faith and have departed from Scripture. "The more Lutheranism
sticks to its original ideas— which preserved much of Catholicism — mediaeval and the more Lutheranism builds on Holy Scripture, the greater are our possibilities of coming on speaking terms. To a great extent our problems, theoretical and practical, are the same." MININPINININNKININP#4.4.4NINNININ".#0,

SIMPLE LIFE
BONN, Germany: Jozsef Cardinal Mindszenty has improved his English to the point where he is now able to preach in that language when he offers Mass in the U.S. legation in Budapest. A group of travelers who spoke with the Hungarian Primate told the German Catholic News Agency here that the cardinal is living a simple life in the two rooms he has occupied on the the Hungarian uprising of legation's third floor since 1956. They said Cardinal Mindszenty had contact with only two of the legation's staff who supply him with newspapers and provide for his personal needs. The cardinal was 73 years old on March 29 starts each day with Mass using his desk as an altar. The rest of his day is spent saying his office, reading, and writing his memoirs, they said.
/
To be known as the London College of Catechetics, the centre will accommodate about 120 students annually, 15 of them residents. Goal is to train new teachers and give refresher courses aimed at enabling teachers to get the Christian message across to children and adults in terms of the 20th century. To be open to priests, Sisters and lay people, the college will centre around a main course of one or two years leading to a diploma. John Cardinal Heenan of Westminster has named as its principal Father Hubert Richards, of Sacred Professor Scripture at St. Edmund's College at Ware, the diocesan seminary of Westminster. His chief assistant will be Sister Aloysius ef Sion, who is taking a special course from Father Johannes Hofinger, S.J, internationally known co techetical expert.

LEEDS, England: At the calling of the Second Vatican Council the Church was getting ever more remote from the people around it, Bishop George Dwyer of Leeds declared here. Though many persons in Britain and in America thought the Church was flourishing, Bishop Dwyer told laymen in St. Andrew's cathedral, lapsed Catholics were being lost in the general populace. Thus, he said, there was real need for • a re-thinking in the Church, and the council provided the arena for this process. Referring to some books that have appeared on the council, he said: "They are unbalanced. They suggest that everything in Catholic theology and philosophy for the past 500 years has been wrong. They stand condemned from an intellectual viewpoint, not merely from a Catholic point of view."
CHURCHES TO CARE FOR THE AGED SYDNEY: Catholics and three other church groups are going to maintain and staff new residential units for elderly patients at state phychiatric hospitals here. The co-operation of the Catholics, Anglicans, Presbyterians and Methodists was enlisted in the pilot project after a recommendation by the New South Wales Health Advisory Council.

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.

S.I.C. OLD BOYS
On Thursday night, February 25 some 30 Old Boys held what could be termed the last general meeting of the St. Ildephonsus' College Old Boys Association. After a long and interesting debate it was moved that the present committee continue in a care taker capacity in order to wind up the affairs of the Association. It was inevitable of course that some winding up course be taken but it was particularly gratifying to the members of the committee that they were given the mandate to handle the delicate task of winding up an association that has become so famous over the years. With Marist College gradually finding its feet, it should not be long before the first steps are taken and at the same time it must be remembered that Brother Cletus has some grandiose ideas too. All Old Boys of Marist Colleges are asked to keep their eyes on these pages for developments. The annual general meeting also saw fit to elect Neil Mannolini, who has been the secretary for ten years, to the elite core of Life Members. Although the honour could now be classed as a paper title, it was nonetheless bestowed for long services, and a fitting end to Neil's energy and interest in all things Marist over the years that he has been secretary.

PATRICIAN MEETING
Irish Club Notes A visit by members of the Irish Club to the Annual St. Patrick's Ball organised by the Parents and Friends Association of St. Mary's Parish, Bruce Rock ended almost a fortnight of celebrations in honour of Ireland's national Apostle. Children of members took part in the St. Patrick's Day procession at Subiaco Oval and that night were competitors at the Irish National Step Dancing Championships at the Perth Town Hall, where His Grace the Archbishop presented the cup to the new Irish Stepdancing Champion, Miss Rosalie Tonkin. On Friday night the club held its Annual Ball at the South Perth Civic Centre. The large crowd attending paid tribute to the Irish Pipe Band and the Irish Folk Dancing Troupe who entertained them during interval, and the hardworking committtee received many congratulations for having made the evening such a lively and pleasant one. At the Irish National Concert the Pipe Band members joined with the Trinity College Boys' Band in rendering some rousing Irish airs and the Irish Dancing Troupe gave a brilliant performance to the music of Tom O'Brien. But it was at the Bruce Rock St. Patrick's Ball the pipers and dancers received their bigest ovation from the packed Hall. Many of the crowd had come very long distances to see and hear and welcome them and they were not disappointed.
There were many requests and promises to go back again and the forty odd members who made the trip send their thanks and Father to appreciation Ryan and his committee for the warmth of their welcome. Members are reminded that the usual social and dance will be held in Highgate Hall on Sunday, April 4. Members interested in hurling practice are asked to report to the eastern end of Langly Park on Sunday afternoon at 3 p.m. Irish Folk dancing continues to be taught each Thursday night at Shenton Park Hall.

The sanctuary of the new chapel at St. Brigid's Convent, Lesmurdie
Convent Extensions Blessed LAST SUNDAY, HIS GRACE THE ARCHBISHOP BLESSED AND OPENED A NEW CHAPEL AND EXTENSIONS TO THE CONVENT AT ST. BRIGID'S COLLEGE, LESMURDIE. Speaking at the opening, His Grace congratulated the Mother Superior and coin munity on the acquisition of the new building. He told them that their patience in waiting so long for an adequate building had been justly rewarded. His Grace complimented St. Brigid's on the fine tone and standard of spirituality, refinement and industry that prevailed in the college, which had been established 36 years ago. "A tone," he said, "which had made the name of St. Brigid's becomeknown throughout the width and breadth of the State." The Archbishop refuted any claim that a convent education was not abreast of the times. "It is not necessary for me to have to tell you that this is utter nonsense," His Grace said. He told the large crowd present at the opening that the teachers were women of culture who were up to date in modern teaching techniques. He thanked and congratulated the Sisters on their work and wished them continued success with the Christian education of the girls committed to their care at St. Brigid's. SIMPLE LINES The new three-storey building has been constructed on simple lines in salmon-coloured brick. It has sleeping accommodation for 22 nuns, a small study and a community room. Each of the nuns' rooms has been fitted with hand-basins and builtin wardrobes and shelves behind sliding doors. The community room opens out on to a flyscreen-enclosed porch. Parquetry flooring has been used throughout the entire building. Screen walls of concrete
masonry-block built around the convent provide privacy for the nuns, but do not exclude light and ventilation. The new chapel has been designed so that Mass can be celebrated facing the congregation. The tabernacle is situated on a shelf in the centre of the rear wall of the sanctuary. The badge of the Sisters of Mercy has been incorporated in copper and brass emblems in the wrought -
The architect for the building was Ernest Rossen and the builders were Berry Brothers.

In a departure from the t raditional custom of nuns kneeling in choir, single kneelers have been installed facing the altar, allowing sufficient space for the nuns to turn and face each other in choir.

Fitter Than Thought RACING first-up after a spell, Game Tracy beat a smart field of youngsters in the six-furlong Palace HanAlways well dicap (1). placed, he was taken to the front before the turn and fought on strongly to beat Cosy Comet, who did well under his big weight of 9.7. Kevin Williams, who trains the colt for Mr. Rod Evans, is away on his honeymoon. The winner was unfancied as he is said to have done little work. He showed his best form in his initial races earlier in the season, so it could well be that he is best suited with limited work. Dialect, the favourite, was a big disappointment. Forced to race wide most of the way. he made a dash coming to the turn, but it was shortlived and he dropped out to finish in the middle of the field. For a horse who had won well at his previous start, he gave a poor performance. Moondi ran a fair race to finish fourth.

BUT for drawing wide at the barrier, Ninbing, winner of the V -furlong Novice, would have started at a much shorter rice. He opened up at 7's and went out to double those odds. The win proved how unlucky he was at his previous start. Royal R obert held a good lead in the straight, but shortened stride when tackled by the winner close to the post. Checked in the straight, Copper Blend did well to run third. Pan Eddy, who was always favourite, ran a bad race. Slow to begin, he raced mid-field most of the way. Although he finished on in the straight, at no stage did he look like taking a hand in the finish. There was a vast difference between this and his two previous runs which were both good and should not be forgotten.
Shows Promise
IT is not unusual at this late stage of the season for a smart youngster or two to be produced. Chemeeh's smart win in the six-furlong Palace Handicap (2) puts him right in that class.
Taken to the front early, he showed plenty of determination when tackled by Nanna Tale, one of our best two-year-olds, and went on to beat that colt by 1,‘ lengths. Nanna Tale was far from disgraced as he stood the winner up 241b. Kimberley Star's run was good; he finished fast from a fair way back to run third. The winner is sure to be improved by the run and his name will long be remembered by ex-jockey Peter McKay as the colt provided him with his first win as a trainer. NINIP#4.4.4.04,11^###.4 , 0#4.4N1

IN almost every race she has won, Key's Folly has led from go to whoa. In the Oaks Stakes of 12 furlongs she did not hit the front until turning for home. Firstly Countess Nan and then Dakhil's Gem attended to the pacemaking with Carol's Choice always in last place. This did not appear to worry her rider, Frank Treen. A sound judge of pace, he timed his run nicely and won going away. Should the second filly be sent to Melbourne as intended at present, she is going to find it hard to get her own way in races there. The winner was bought and raced by well-known Jim Cumming, wno has not enjoyed his usual success in recent months. There have been few stronger sup• porters of W.A. racing ov er a long period of years than Jim Cumtninc,r. While he has sold countless horses, he has bought and raced, he told me when Carol's Choice rirst raced that she was one he would not part with.

ASSOCIATE and Mr. List, the form horses in the 101furlong Calista Handicap, provided a thrilling finish-the photo showed that Associate had got up to win by a head. When Mr. List hit the front in the straight with Associate a fair way back, he seemed to have the race won. Treen, using aui his "know-how," was able to get that horse up and land his third winner for the day. When Treen is in form, he is better than good and he is in form right now. As recently mentioned, so fit is Associate that at present he could win whatever he starts in. •
Still Winning
BARGAIN horse Operio, reputed to be "touched in the wind," had too much speed for the field in the Bomba Sprint over five furlongs. Since trainer Harold Campbell bought him for his wife a few months ago for 100 guineas, Operio has won twice and ran second from three starts and returned his price in stakes over tenfold. Sparingly raced, the horse has now won as many races as he has lost. Freshened up, De Gaullio finished on to run second with Nintoku third. On his run the third horse could have been something beaten. A long last when the field settled down, he had to go outside of everything—eight wide on the turn, he was still flying, but the post was too near. Cimbrone's Gem was not good enough—she showed a lot of pace to the turn, went wide and dropped out. Liked the run of La Diva, who was in front until her condition gave out. A run or two should make a world of difference to her
Improved Mare
AFTER winning the Hyperion Handicap over 71 furlongs, Radiancy and jockey Tiger Moore received a mild demonstration on returning to scale. For a horse who has not been further back than second at her last four starts, it is hard to fathom a reason for the uproar. A couple of starts ago she was a certainty beaten solely due to her failure to obtain a run in the straight. Previously she has trained off after a few runs, but now seems to be thriving on racing. Being small, a lower scale of weights should suit her from now on. Sanjean had no luck in running and did well to run second with Cimbrone's Lass hanging on to finish third. Leading the straight, field into the Bulera's Son showed he is fast approaching his best and will take a power of beating when next started )11 a shorter race.
Week's Best CHEMECH'S winning performance was most impressive; he is bound to train on and does not look like being troubled by a distance further than six furlongs.

amongst the members and with Brother Cletus it was decided to change to Marist Brothers Colleges—to be known as M.B.C. Hockey Club for convenience. It is felt that this year will prove the rebirth of the club and to assist it is important that as many recruits as possible be obtained. Any Old Boy of any Marist College is welcome to join and interested players are asked to get in touch with the secretary, Gerry O'Sullivan, or the coach, Dave Rushton at 21 Peebles Road, Floreat phone 87 4304.

NCE every now and then in the broad stream of most of them of very ssues, i good standard, there appears a disc of such enchantment that it is difficult to find time to pay much attention to anything else. Both of these works are delight ful and both have a piquant history. The Haydn concerto was one of several commissioned by Ferdinand IV of Naples who played a peculiar in s trument called the lira organizzata, which is not Italian for organised liar ( though that might fit Ferdinand) but a lyre with organ pipes. Haydn had the prudence to rescore his concertos and two guitars sound very effective with a chamber orchestra, particularly with the Lamoureux Chamber Orchestra under Jean-Baptist Mari. The slow movement was maddeningly familiar because Haydn, in the uninhibited fashion of the 18th c entury, later incorporated it into the "Military" Symphony omitting, with some regret no doubt, the lira organizzata. This is a gem of miniature music which is r eadily likeable and yet it will not wear thin on repeated hearings. The same applies even more to the Schubert, which isn't really Schubert but a r earrangement of him of a trio by Matiega. Every now unmistakable and then, Schubertian harmonies burst through; by adding a cello to the original flute, guitar and viola, Schubert would have had to re-write the string part extensively. The guitar does not combine very well with the other instruments and the riute takes a good deal more than its fair share, but the result is always pleasant and is at times ravishing. This quartet was also recorded in France, but the names of the players are all Germanic or Slay. Their playing is outstanding. One of the most delightful records to be issued for a long time.

IN addition to the two 111 works given above, the disc includes the Hungarian March from "The Damnation of Faust" by Berlioz, the Valse Triste by Sibelius and "Invitation to the Dance" by Weber. All these old warhorses have two things in common, they are very tuneful and very loud. Herbert von Karajan conducts the Philharmonia in a set of rip-roaring performances and the recording, dating from 1959, is very good.

JUST "DIE"
LONDON: Hugh Burnett, television producer for the British Broadcasting Corporation decided he needed some professional help in preparing two satirical programmes, one on "heaven" and the other on "hell". He wrote to Father Agnellus Andrew, 0.F.M., BBC's Catholic consultant, asking how he could get the official Roman Catholic view of "heaven" and "hell." The memorandum he got back consisted of one word: "Die."
A PRODUCTION OF "CHARLEY'S AUNT" FOR A SEASON IN MAY. If the Society's plans are realised, this should be most ,successful— "Charley's Aunt" being the surest box-office attraction in the theatre. This English comedy by Brandon Thomas was last seen in Perth about four years ago when it was presented at the Playhouse. Meanwhile, U.D.S. is preparing for its week of student-produced plays. Some of the producers will be Evan Taplin, Janina Wasko and Geoft Milne. Some of the plays are "No Exit," "The Vigilant Sentinal" and "Resounding Tinkle." Actors to be used in these productions are Maria Volaris, Kay McDermott, Anne Lucas, Chris French and Vic Marsh. After each production there will be seminars conducted by various University drama people, including Jeana Bradley. The highlight of the week will be the production of the winning entry in the playwright competition conducted by the society. Eight entries have been received so far and the judges express themselves most satisfied with the standard of the entries. The University Dramatic Society will hold its annual this drama camp . later month.
A BIT of misreporting last week — Phillipa Henderson will design the poster for "The White Devil," not the decor. However, she has been responsible for the striking decor for "Hedda Gabler," which is currently playing at the Dolphin Theatre.
WELL-KNOWN English ballet personalities Rudolph Nureyev and Sir Frederick Ashton have both agreed to re-proeuce works for the Australian Ballet Company while it is on its overseas t our later this year. The administrator of the ballet, Mr. Geoffrey Ingram, has said that there will be a period set aside to mount new works by important o verseas choreographers and bring them back to Australia.

The final details of the reertoire the ballet will perform overseas is expected to be announced shortly. The company will be the only visiting company participating in the Commonwealth Festival of Arts and it is expected to have a tremendous impact as far as the Australian image is concerned.
The company's three performances will be in the last days of the festival, October 1 and 2. The Australian Ballet will leave Sydney at the end of July and will dance in the Lebanon at the Baalbeck Festival on its way to England. A major tour of the Continent has also been included in the itinerary.
FIRST CONCERT AUGURED WELL FOR FUTURE
CO
HE GREAT INTEREST OF THE FIRST OF THE SUBSCRIPTION CONCERT SERIES WAS THE FIRST APPEARANCE OF THE NEW MUSICAL DIRECTOR, THOMAS MAYER. The three purely orchestral works had all been played by the orchestra in the last year or two, and so we had three yardsticks by which to assess the impact of the new conductor. One of the most pleasing characteristics of our local orchestra has been their ability to respond to the stimulus of visiting conductors, and it was apparent from the first few bars of Berlioz' Roman Carnival Overture that Thomas Mayer was going to be a great musical force in this State. The crisp attack and dynamic contrast was just right for this extrovert kind of music. INTROSPECTIVE
MUSIC
Barber's Adagio for Strings gave a chance to display his handling of more introspective (if equally obvious) music; again he extracted the fullest beauty from the work. It was Beethoven's Seventh Symphony, however. 3.4'M-eh provided the real touchstone. We have sat through so many pleasantly undistinguished performances of Beethoven symphonies that the only way to enjoy them is to accept our limitations cheerfully. It could well be that this period is at an end. *
INTEGRATED
PERFORMANCE
Thomas Mayer obviously knew the symphony intimately and the orchestra achieved a brilliant, integrated performance that was a joy from beginning to end. The Sibelius Violin Concerto, with Beryl Kimber as soloist, was much less distinguished. Miss Kimber gave a confident, well-sustained performance in which she displayed a technique which made light of the difficulties. However, she was admirable rather than moving; even there, perhaps Sibelius w as to blame. Altogether a very enjoyable evening and a happy augury for the future.—H.T.G.

A Woman Cares F Abbey Garden
L ANNING well ahead is essential if one wants to .have a really beautiful garden, as any gardening enthusiast soon comes to know.
One London gardener is keeping this well in mind for an outstanding display she plans for 1966 for one of the oldest gardens in England. Thousands of visitors to London from overseas each year put historic Westminster Abbey high on the list of places they must see, and are pleasantly surprised by the beauty of the three acres of gardens behind the ancient building. Few of them know that a women is responsible for the upkeep of the gardens. She is 33-year -old Mrs. Marian Couchman, and records show that more than 600 years ago the three acres she now cares for were planted out as herb gardens by the monks who once lived in the Abbey. S PECIAL D ISPLAYS In 1966, the 900th anniversary of the consecration of the Abbey will be celebrated, though the actual date of the consecration was December 28. 1065, and Mrs. Couchman is already planning special displays
for the already immaculate flower beds and borders set in carefully nurtured lawns.
Mrs. Couchman won the post of gardener at the Abbey in the face of considerable male comneition. She has a diplome fl horticulture and coulif she wished, confine hc to planning and direct the work in the garde: But Mrs. Couchman fers, with the help of on. one assistant, to tackle fz • herself the digging, plar ing and weeding necessa to keep the Abbey garth blooming in the heart of London. * PROBLEMS T OO She finds that her dens—li e gardens where—have problem._ their own.

Hints On Knives

A top quality knife is a long-term investment, and it, therefore, should be carefully chosen and well cared for. Here are a few useful points to remember when buying and looking after kitchen knives: • Always buy from a reliable shop. A cheap, bargain priced knife is too often badly made and a poor investment. • Make sure that the blade is of high quality and will hold its edge. • Examine the way the blade is fitted into the handle. It should run nearly half the length—if not the whole length—of the handle. If it is a hardwood handle the blade should be riveted in.
wood or high-grade plastic. • Pick up the knife and hold it in your hand to ascertain that it is comfor' able and well balanced. • Store your knives if possible in a rack or block to protect the blades. If you do have no alternative but to store them in a basket or drawer, make sure that the blades all face the same way. Always store them in a dry place.

MISSION NOTES
HEN you read this, Saint Patrick's Day will be a memory— and possibly it will be a more lively memory in Australia than in Ireland.
By Rev. Father W. J. Foley
• From LOCHLINN MacGLYNN in DUBLIN
CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC: "Death-Bed" Convert Starts Movement Towards The Church. THIS is how a local missionary describes what has taken place: "One day, while Father Henry was passing through a village, he noticed a sick man lying on a couch. The priest stopped and saw that the ,sick man was at the point of death. He instructed him rapidly concerning the most important religious truths and baptised him. The invalid had scarcely received Baptism than he began to get better. He did not die as expected, but quickly recovered. He attributed his cure to his having been baptised by the priest. Full of zeal for God's service, he took upon himself the mission of suppressing fetishes and everything that is used for the worship of spirits and the devil. He changed his name, taking that of `Ngoutide,' which means 'cold water.' "It should be said that these fetishes which the Africans consider as signs of the presence or at least the power of the devil, are the object not only of worship but also, and above all, of fear. In the local language they are called 'Yoro.' No one would dare to touch them unnecessarily and still less to profane them. Everyone is convinced that any sacrilege towards them will be followed by a rapid death, as an exemplary punishment and vengeance by the offended spirit. This was very true in times past because the witch-doctors did not hesitate to poison those who did harm to the worship of these spirits. FRIGHTENED BY BOLDNESS "When the Africans saw Ngoutide pulling down the fetishist shrines, taking hold of the fetishes c ontemptuously and throwing them into the fire, they were frightened by his boldness. They expected him to die immediately as a punishment for his boldness. Nothing of the sort happened and Ngoutide continued to pull down the pagan places of worship. 'Now he is considered as a new prophet. Whatever he says is accepted and believed by most of the inhabitants. He has declared that fetishes, pagan places of sacrifice and everything consecrated to the spirits, which is to say to the devil, must be abandoned. The missionaries had been saying so in vain for fifty years. It has sufficed for Ngoutide to open his mouth for everyone to obey. He has called no one, yet the roads are full of people going to him of their own accord, carrying in a bundle their `yoros' inherited from their ancestors and now destined to be thrown into the fire. Many of them walk over sixty and even over 125 miles to fulfil their pilgrimage. Some of them have even died of exhaustion on the road. The hospital at Bambari receives those who have hurt their feet on the stones on the way and are unable to continue. "Ngoutide tells those who come — sometimes several thousands at a time—that they must go to the Catholic Mission and he then gives them a wooden cross and his blessing, threatening anyone who returns to the worship of fetishes with all sorts of evil. Great importance is attached to his blessing. "What are the results of this movement to date? I thought at first that the new converts would be content with renouncing the devil and declaring themselves for God without going any further. I was mistaken. SOUGHT INSTRUCTION "When they saw that I was not against their prophet and that I even seemed to approve of him, they came to Mass on 'Sundays and then asked for catechists to instruct them. In this way, certain villages in the centre of the Bakala region, which for the past five years had absolutely refused any religious instruction, now have a catechism class every evening. If Ihad enough catechists,I would place one in every village in the bush. The new church at Bakala risks becoming too small. "What is the future of this religious movement? Will it prove to be merely a sudden, short blaze? This does not seem to be the case since in the Kouango region, where Ngoutide began his apostolate about two years ago, the movement towards God has been maintained. After two years' catechumenate, the people are going to be baptised this month. They number one thousand and others will folow. Will they persevere as well at Bakala? Let us hope so. #41.4,04•041.0.00.41,41,00.0,41.4.4

INFORMATION CENTRE UBLIN
D
a number of small parties are addressing meetings.
GOOD RELATIONS Relations with Britain, as Premier Harold Wilson remarked when he was guest of honour at the Saint Patrick's Day dinner in the Irish Club, London, were never better. The Irish Club, in Eaton Square, was the palatial war-time residence of Queen Wilhelmina, and the Irish in London have made it into a magnificent r esidential club. Premier Wilson, Cardinal Heenan, Premier Lemass' son-in-law Charles Haughey (Minister for Agriculture) and many others joined in the Saint Patrick's Day celebrations and Mr. Wilson, who says he is not a "party" man in the social sense, enjoyed himself tremendously. Cardinal Heenan and Mr. Haughey pinned shamrock on him, and he made a very pro-Irish speech in which he said that, as the Northern and Southern Premiers (Captain Terence O'Neill and Mr. Lemass) had met in Belfast and Dublin, they might now meet in London. Captain O'Neill, whose Northern Unionist Party has seats in the British House of Commons as well as in its regional Parliament in Belfast, and votes for the Conservatives, said he hadn't been informed in advance of this suggestion, and didn't see what use a tripartite conference would be. Mr. Lemass said he hadn't been informed in advance either, but he thought it was a friendly gesture of goodwill. In the O'Neill-Lemass talks, constitutional issues were not discussed, because it would be difficult to sug gest to Captain O'Neill that he come into an independent all-Ireland Republic, or even that the functions now reserved to Westminster in the case of the North should be transferred to Dublin, even with a continuing re gional parliament in the North under the Unionists. SLIM MAJORITY Harold Wilson, however, is working on a slim Labour majority; and a group of Unionists from Ulster, vot ing in Britain for the Conservatives and always assured of their seats because of Protestant majorities in
their Ulster constituencies and a consistently "religious" vote, are not an exactly comforting sight for Mr. Wilson as he looks across the floor of the house. Indeed, he knows before b British General Election that ten or 12 of those seats are already filled from Ulster, and that the elections in Ulster to fill the Westminster seats are a formality. Mr. Haughey, with his usual wit, urged the British Premier not to be discouraged by having a majority of three. The Irish Government, he said, had been working very satisfactorily on a majority of "minus t wo." This is indeed so, because Premier Lemass does not have an overall majority and is supported by a few Independents. From the North, Captain O'Neill is pursuing a policy of co-operation with the Republic — there have been many meetings of corresponding Ministers since the Premiers met—but on the question of membership of the United Kingdom, he is trying to avoid the feeling among his own supporters that he has committed it to any danger. This accounts for his reaction to Mr. Wilson's suggestion of a tripartite conference, because the functions which Britain handles for the North—such as defence and foreign policy—are very largely in the constitutional realm, on which Captain O'Neill and Mr. Lemass did not touch in their goodwill talks. Incidentally, Mr. Wilson reminded the Irish at the Irish Club that more Irish vote for him, as an M.P., than for many an Irish M.P., and this is very true; he is supported by virtually all the Irish emigrants and people of Irish descent in his constituency. Indeed, the same applies in many parts of the world; There are three million people in this State, but in the United States there are forty million people of Irish descent, virtually all of them voting for the Democrats, so that a Kennedy or a Johnson gets more Irish votes than anyone in Ireland can ever get. The late Aodh de Blacam, in his interesting books, often talked of an Irish Empire. and as one listened to President Kennedy, or listens these days to Harold Wilson, one is inclined to believe that there is a very big Irish empire of the heart.

* DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS This Sunday is Passion Sunday and it opens the season of Passiontide. In all the churches you will notice that the statues of Our Lord, Our Lady, and the Saints, and even the crucifix itself, are covered with purple veils so that we may be fully occupied with the great events from which this special season takes its name. During this season we should all meditate on the passion and death of Our Lord. It should be a special time of preparation for the great feast of Easter when we celebrate the Resurrection of Our Lord from the dead.

PRIESTS ARE NOT APART
LONDON: Wearing Mass vestments does not set priests apart from their people, because "after all, they are born into families, they have mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters," John Cardinal Heenan of Westminster maintained in a radio interview here. He said that after 18 years of pastoral work in London's East End he is "as close to the people as the next man."

Catholic And WCC Experts To Meet Before Easter GENEVA: Groups of experts appointed by the Vatican Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity and by the World Council of Churches will meet before Easter for two "consultations," one on "Church and Society" and the other on "comon concerns" about missionary work. The meetings, the first of their kind, are to take place separately at a church conference centre at Gret-Berard, just east of the Swiss city of Lausanne. The meeting on "Church and Society" was scheduled for March 28 to 31; the "Consultation on Mission" for April 5 to 10. These meetings have been in the planning stage for some time. and are not immediately connected with the project joint committee of eight representatives of Council World the of Churches and six of the Roman Catholic Church to discuss ways of achieving dialogue and collaboration. ( The chairman of the WCC central committee, Dr. Franklin Clark Fry of New York, has predicted that the joint committee discussions will also begin before Easter.) Dr. Mauricio Lopez, secretary of the WCC Department on Church and Society announced that the first of the two "consultations" will feature during its first three days addresses by representatives of the World Council and the Roman Church on (1) current approaches on either side to the question of the Church and its relationship to society, (2) theological questions connected with Christian responsibility in the world of today, and (3) areas of study for future collaboration between Roman Catholics and the World Council The speakers at the consultations will all come

Cromwell, of course, was what today we would call a Congregationalist, not a Methodist as is your friend. "NO METHODIST HATE-POLICY" Q.: My friend says that his Methodist Church has never been guilty of inciting its people to hate and persecute others. R.: His Methodism came into existance in a totally different age. John Wesley died, still a professing Anglican, in 1781. Four years later, his followers began to break away from the Church of England, and not until 1812 did they venture to describe themselves as a separate and independent "Methodist Church." Meantime if the Methodist Church does not incite its people to hatred and persecution, the insults your Methodist friend heaps on you for having became a Catholic indicate dispositions of hate contrary to the teachings of his Church, and which in earlier and times, propitious more could well have turned him also into another Oliver Cromwell.

reasons for that statemeant? And what could he have meant by "dangerous"? R.: The words I quoted were spoken in 1953, in support of a bitterly anti-Catholic lecture by Paul Blanshard at Princeton University, U.S.A. There was no need for Einstein to elaborate his statement; Blanshard had done that in books that Einstein praised. For example, Blanshard devoted his book "Freedom and Catholic Power" (1949) to propagating his obsessions, regardless of facts and logic, that the Catholic Church is a tyrannical and monstrous institution bent upon imposing its own will on the whole world in every sphere of human activity, not only as regards religion and morals, but in education, politics, economics and culture generally; and that it is the greatest menace to democratic freedoms of any kind. That Einstein shared Blanshard's obsessions is evident from his praise of Blanshard's books and pubhey-expressed gratitude to him for having written them. But this was a tribute of the blind to the blind. Writing i n the "New Yorker," December, 1933, Alva Johnston said of bim: "Einstein knew things that everybody else was ignorant of, and was ignorant of things that everbody else knew . . . Socially, politically, religiously, he lived in a sort of vacuum." In the London "Times Literary Supplement," June 1, 1956, Carl Seelig said of him: "His comments on events and policies outside the realm of his own training would not have marked him as one outstanding geniuses of all time, and occasionally descended to the level of the puerile." Both Einstein's and Blanshard's opinions on Catholicism can be dismissed as born of prejudice and equally worthless.
