BISHOP FULTON J. SHEEN discusses

T

HE FIRST RECORDED TION

THAT

MAN

QUES-

My Brother's Keeper

HURLED

BACK INTO THE FACE OF GOD

WAS: "AMIMY BROTHER'S KEEPER?" Cain had brought the first death into the world by killing Abel. God, seeking to arouse his conscience, asked: "Where is thy brother Abel?" His conscience was already dead, but he tried to escape the guilt by taxing God with making an unreasonable inquiry. Hence the retort: "Am I my brother's keeper?" How God spoke we know not, except that He accommodated Himself to the conscience of Cain. What now becomes interesting is that, having failed to induce Cain to acknowledge his guilt, God looks elsewhere for evidence to convict him.

CAIN had already put himself in the position of those today who deny that there is any such thing as guilt or sin. The great novelist Doestoevski foretold of this condition which would come to pass in the modern world, saying that "a time will come when men will say there is no sin, there is no crime, there is no guilt. There is only hunger. And men will come to our feet crying and imploring: "Give us bread."

In this state of denial of personal guilt and responsibility, Cain was at the same time denying that he had any responsibility to society. There seems to be an intrinsic bond between man's denial of personal moral failure and his repudiation of involvement with the ills and woes of others.

Fl DOESTOEVSKI, again stress-

ing the contrary view, says: Think of yourself as being responsible for the sins of your fellowmen, and you will see how quickly you will want to relieve their burdens. Following the marvellous psychological insights in the .story, God answers the question of Cain: "Am I my brother's keeper?" by retorting: "The voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto Me from the ground." Even though Cain refused to hear the whisper of conscience, or better, the questioning voice of God, inanimate nature itself protested. Nature is on God's side, not on man's side. Something of this mystery is hidden in the prophecy of Our Lord to Peter, that there would be a link between Peter's denial of Him and the crowing of a cock.

In the absence of accusation from our fellow, all visible creation—sun, moon, stars, forest, water—seem to grow vocal to publish our crime. It is very likely that the very branches of the tree on which Judas hanged himself must have seemed to him like pointing fingers. Thompson's words concerning nature were: "Traitorous trueness, loyal deceit. In fickleness to me and in When the dialogue loyalty to Him." which conscience holds with the guilty is rejected, the universe itself becomes a mirror holding crime up for all to see.

Fl COULD it be that because man has evolved out of the dust into which God breathed an immortal soul, then the wrong that is done echoes and reverberates throughout the vast realm of nature? In any case, there is a sympathy between the moral order and the physical, between conscience and the human body, between the moral and somatic. Could not one translate nature declaring Cain's sin into modern psychological terms? How often those who are morally guilty and who deny their guilt might hear

God's voice in new ways saying: "The voice of thy sins cried up to Me from your psychosis, your neurosis and your dreams. The guilt that you deny is not effaced, it is merely submerged. And though thou permittest Me not to read it in conscience, I read it in thy nerves, in thy complexes, in the very ground of thy being."

F l pERHAPS Cain had concealed beneath the sod the blood of his brother, and with the greatest attention removed every visible trace to the superficial examiner of his foul deed. He had learned that the things which he thought dumb could raise their voices to the ear of Omnipotence, and that the blood of a brother which he shed could rise vocal with words of prayer. Many a misdeed in theft and adultery, buried under the sod of the conscious mind has its voice, too. Every psychic disturbance which is the result of thumbing one's nose against the moral order has its voice, too. It is not the ground today, but the mental ills which cry up to Heaven. Nature confirms and illustrates in every particular the unconfessed and the unpardoned guilt which has its record in the body and in the mind, and crieth up to Heaven from that ground: "With crimson clouds before their eyes arid flames about their brain."

VATICAN CITY: AN American withdrawal from Vietnam would open the door to Red Chinese expansion, according to L'Osservatore della Domenica, Vatican City weekly. An editorial in the weekly by Federico Alessandrini, assistant editor of L'Osservatore Romano, Vatican City daily, said communists are posing as "champions of the rights of peoples and their freedom" and demands are being made that the U.S. get out of Vietnam and halt its "imperie list" efforts. REAL IMPERIALISM Alessandrini added: "Nothis said, however, about the other r e a 1 imperialism which the China of Mao tseTung is bringing to bear on Vietnam by promoting and feeding guerrilla warfare." He added that the U.S. has shown it knows how to get out of a country when a situation has been solved. This is not the case with the communists, he said. He concluded: "The Americans are attempting with air action in North Vietnam to break the channels which f eed guerrilla warfare in the South. And it would be fitting to point out that, despite the obvious difficulties in which they have found t hemselves, they are fighting not only for their own interests but for the interests of all 'free men."

De spite Pope Paul VI's personal intervention on behalf of the schema, it was sent back to the commission. The commission member said his group "has fulfilled its mandate." The revised document should give impulse to "a renewal of the missions," he added.

T

PLENARY MEETING Forty members and experts of the commission revised the schema in a weeklong plenary meeting in this town, south of Rome. The basis of their work was a preliminary draft pre pared by a sub-commission in January. After the Council's co-ordinating commission checks t he new schema it will be sent to the Council Fathers during the fourth session be ginning in September. Gregorio Cardinal Agaof the ..fianian Prefect Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith, presided at the Nemi sessions. When he was unable to be present, the SuperiorGeneral of the Divine Word Fathers, the Very Rev. John Schuette, S.V.D.. acted a‘ chairman. The meetings, which took place mornings, afternoons and sometimes in the evenings, were held at Verbite Seminary, where the participans remained during the week. "We talked, ate and slept the missions," one of the conterees said. "This is the ideal way to get things done in these meetings."

AN observer for the World iniGn of Catholic Women's Organisations told a United Nations economic commission on Asia and the Far East that many of that area's problems could be s olved if rich nations gave one per cent of their national incomes to developing nations. Dr. Patricia Burns pointed cut that few wealthy nations have met the standard even though it was adopted in principle in a U.N. General Assembly resolution. Dr. Burns granted it is not easy for a rich nation to make suck an adjustment, but she added that "the fact still remains, in spite of all the complexities, technicalities and reservations, that increased aid and technical assistance is necessary." TECHNICAL AID The New Zealand woman told the commission members that increased technical assistance would alleviate the present concerns about population control— a subject much debated at the meeting. The Far East contains more than half the world's population, but less than one-fifth of the land mass. "Even if the population continues to increase," she said. "we believe that, given sufficient monetary aid, capital investment, development and research of a7.1 kinds, the resources of 20th century technology will be capable of feeding. clothing, housing and educating all our people."

Paulian Association Lay Missionary Secretariat, which sends lay men and women into many of the hundreds of South Pacific islands of shortage the where priests and teachers is especially great. In eastern New Guinea and the Solomon Islands, both under Australian mandate, there are more than t wo million persons. Most of these are not Christians and many live in the most primitive conditions. Many of the places where they live can be reached only by plane or boat. PALMS was organised to send teachers to the islands —teachers who could not only conduct a class in English or religion, but who could also do such jobs as r un a trading post, nurse at a dispensary, operate a timber mill or even an airline if the need arose. SCHOOLS SUBSIDISED All of the mission schools are subsidised by the Australian Federal government. In some cases the government pays the teachers' salaries. In the past four years. PALMS has sent more than a hundred lay volunteers to the island missions, but the number is not nearly enough. In the New Guinea provinces alone, there are at least 200 openings waiting to be filled. Typical of the volunteers are Mr. and Mrs. Peter Meere, who teach at a training college for teachers at Mt. Hagen, New Guinea. Now serving on their second t wo-year term, the Meeres are trying to adopt two native childrgh at the mission. "This work gives us a chance to share in the work of the priests and religious," said Mr. Meere. "It gives us the reward of knowing that we are really taking the faith to native people and helping to save souls... TRAINING COURSES PALMS has already conducted two resident training courses for lay missionaries in Sydney and is planning a third for May. Volunteers ordinarily enlist for two years. PALMS is not the only m ission ary organisation working in the Pacific islands. The Society for the Propagation of the Faith. the mission bishops and individual religious orders have recruited lay persons. Many of the volunteers are from countries other than Australia. Mr. and Mrs. Milton Kempf, with their six daughters aged from one to ten, recently left the United States for the Sacred Heart Mission on the island of New Ireland. Mary Gilchrist, a PALMS leader, reported after a trip to a number of missions that most of the lay volunteers working there were

Turin Cardinal Dies TURIN, Italy: MAURILIO CARDINAL FOSSATI ARCHBISHOP OF TURIN FOR THE PAST 35 YEARS, DIED HERE AT THE AGE OF 88 AFTER A LONG ILLNESS. His death reduced the college of cardinals to 101 members. Pope Pius XI had named him a cardinal at the consistory of March 13, 1933. Cardinal Fossati was born on May 24, 1876, in Arona, Italy, birthplace of St. Charles Borromeo. He was one of 10 children of a poor working class family. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1898 after studies at seminaries at Arona and Novara. He edited the paper of the Novara diocese, the Voice of Novara, and later became secretary to Bishop Pulciana of Novara. He served in the same post when the bishop was named archbishop of Genoa. After Archbishop Pulcian's death in 1911, Father Fossati returned to Novara and obtained permission to enter the Congregation of the Oblates of SS. Gaudentius and Charles. He became an outstanding preacher and an authority on canon law. In 1915 he was named rector of the Italian Shrine of Sacro Monte at Varallo

Sesia, to which he returned after service as an army private in military hospitals during World War 1. He was named Bishop of Nuoro on the island of Sardinia in 1924 and five years later became archbishop of Sassari, Sardinia. In 1930 he was transferred to head the archdiocese of Turin, important industrial centre in northern Italy. Pope Pius XI raised him to the rank of cardinal three years later. WAR EFFORTS Cardinal Fosatti's efforts on behalf of his people during World War II made him a hero. His See city was bombed 105 times from 1940 to 1945, with great loss of life and property. The Germans considered arresting him because of the Church's assistance to the persecuted people, particularly the Jews, in the Piedmont region. Toward the end of the war it is said he persuaded the retreating Germans not to pass through Turin. For some years Cardinal Fossati served as president of the Italian Episcopal Conference, the national organisation of Itaty's bishpps. IN 1959, at the age of 83 he asked to be relieved from that office. He attended the conclave that elected Pope Paul in June, 1963. He was a member of the Congregations of Sacramental Discipline, of the Council and of Religious.

"EUPHEMISM"

FOR A MORE BLUNT OR REALISTIC ONE. Anyone exposed to modern advertising is aware that a spade is never called a spade or even a shovel. What it is called depends on the ingenuity or imagination of the copy -writer.

A MOTHER WRITES A WOMAN writes to protest in a sense this avoidance of a sense of reality. She says: "I have just read your column about two exceptional children. Why do you call them exceptional? "I call them handicapped. I know what it is to have two handicapped boys, and I would not call them exceptional. It was a nightmare after the second one. "The woman said it was time that was the healer. But who gave her this time? -You say to yourself—Tear God, how many more? How many more? You think—what will happen to

THE TONE of this letter indicates a fine example of one who has escaped the initial trap of self-pity. She could not have helped ask herself the question, "Why did this happen to me?" Her faith told her not quickly but eventually that God's hand was behind it all and with it His wisdom. -She was able to thank Him for His gifts of two sons, restricted as they might be in their human development. To face the actuality of the handicap, whether physical, mental or emotional, is the beginning of the solution. The other reality to remember is that this child, despite the handicap, is still a human being. Two excesses are to be avoided. One is of over compensation. This means so concentrating on the handicap as to neglect other ordinary human relations between husband and wife and with the other children. Thus is developed the martyr mother or father who devote all time and energy to the child just because of the handicap. The other excess is to feel that nothing can really be done to correct the situation and forget that here is a human being who needs his share of loving and the opportunity to love in return. There is no one really who is born unhandicapped. It is just that in some it is more obvious. The cure, if there is a cure, lies in the acceptance of God's will and the attempt to love and be loved in spite of or just because of the handicap.

CEYLON'S NEW PRIME MINIS TER DECLARED IN KANDY THAT HIS GOVERNMENT WOULD NOT "TAKE AWAY" THE RIGHTS OF ANY RELIGIOUS COMMUNITY. Prime Minister Dudley Senanayake spoke during his first visit to Kandy after assuming office early in March. In an apparent reference to the election defeat of the former government headed by Mrs. Sirimavo Bandaranaike, the new Premier, who is a devout Buddhist, said Ceylon has "now overcome a threat to religion." Senanayake assured his listeners that he would not "act unfairly" to any community. In previous statements, Senanayake assured religious freedom to all while emphasising that Buddhism would be given its "rightful place" as the religion professed by a majority of people in the island.

TWELVE Welsh Anglican clergymen will go to Caldey Abbey soon for a group retreat to be conducted by one of the abbey's Cistercian monks. The precedent-making project is seen as an-

other sign of improving relations between the various Christian churches in Wales. The idea of the retreat grew out of a visit by an Anglican chaplain at a Swansea hospital to the bedside of Abbot Samson Wickstead, 0.C.R., of Caleley Abbey when the abbot was

a patient there earlier this year. Abbot Wiekstead offer-

ed the use of the island abbey as a site for a retreat and it was enthusiastically accepted.

Concelebration For Jubilee

HOBART:

ARCHBISHOP YOUNG'S (ARCHBISHOP OF HO-

BART) SERVICES TO POLES LIVING IN AUSTRALIA WERE RECOGNISED WHEN HE WAS AWARDED THE COMMANDER'S CROSS OF THE ORDER OF POLONIA RESTITUA ON APRIL 4. The decoration was presented by General Stanislaw Kopanski, the former leader of the famed Polish Carpathian Brigade. He said that Archbishop Young had shown especial understanding of the needs of the Polish people and of their national traditions. The Archbishop has been described as "the greatest Australian among the Poles and the greatest Pole among the Australians." G ALLIPOLI General Konanski, who Jives in London, is in Australia to honour the 50th anniversary of Gallipoli and the 25th anniversary of the formation of the Carpathian Brigade. The award was instituted in 1921 to mark the restoration of self-determination to Poland after 150 years of domination by Russia, Austria and Prussia. Among the first to receive the honour was Monsignor Achilles Ratti, who remained in Poland when all other diplomats fled as the Bolsheviks invaded the country. The prelate later became Pope Pius XI. HIGHEST The award, which was the highest honour of pre-war Poland, is rarely given to persons of other nationalities. The Polish Government-inexile with its headquarters in London authorised the investiture. Archbishop Young said it was a great honour to be given an award first received by so great a champion of freedom as Pope Pius XI, who had defied Communism, Nazism and Fascism. PROUD He was proud to be honoured by Free Poland, which had been the great bulwark of Christian civilisation on the Eastern marches of Europe and which had time and again shuddered under the impact of frenzy from the East. The Archbishop said he accepted the honour as a tribute to Australia, which believed in freedom and hated the evil of Communism and would be prepared to fight against any whc might attack the values of free Christian society. He said: "I take this honour as having been placed on the shoulders of free Australia." "....04,0"••••••••####ANONNWINPNONANIP

Students Study Radio FIRST-FORM students of St. Pius X College, Adamstown, will have an opportunity that many of their friends would envy — the chance to learn about amateur radio in school hours. Boys at the school have already made radio contact with America. A science teacher at the school, Father J. Doran (known in radio circles as VK2ANL), hopes to begin classes and demonstrations on amateur radio for pupils in the hobby periods allotted under the Wyndham Scheme. In the past he has had a radio club operating at the school. The former club consisted mainly of older boys whose interest tended to w ander. Father Doran feels the young boys will be more attentive. WILL BUILD EQUIPMENT The class will teach boys the theory of radio and Morse code and will give practice in building equipment. Many boys in the former club built their own receivers. In addition the boys wili have a chance to make interesting contacts. Father Doran has been given a room at the school for the hobby period and for possible use after school. Some fourth-formers who were members of the club had sufficient knowledge to be able to supervise the youngsters, Father Doran said. Theory would play an important part in the class. "I find if they get too interested in transmitting and making interesting contacts they neglect the theory," he said. The former club made many interesting contacts. RADIO CONTACT Some of the places with which the boys have made contact include a high school in Los Angeles, another in Hollywood, and a school conducted by Jesuits in Katmandu, Nepal. The boys have spoken twice to the Katmandu school. Several State - wide contacts have also been made. There are radio clubs in several Australian schools. Father Doran's interest in amateur radio stems from school days when there was a radio club at his school. He was interested in radio as a hobby in pre-war days and obtained his "ticket" to operate in 1946. He has made many friends through radio, particularly among Catholic missionaries in the Islands, and is planning a tour to visit all these in a coming school vacation.

Public Works engineers rushed from tAitape with equipment and men to cut one of the curves in the river. They channelled it so that it passed by only two sides of the hospital instead of three. An engineer with the Public Works Department said that if the Raihu had not been diverted, it probably would have undermined the hospital and encircled it.

Observing that the Soviet Union and communist China do not subscribe to the Western idea of artificial birth control, the doctors warned that if unlicensed sexuality becomes a public policy, "the free world and the underdeveloped countries will inevitably be led to a catastrophe, and an important argument will be provided for the development of a world-wide, nonwhite racial front of the 'proletarian peoples.'"

BROTHER'S THESIS ACCLAIMED

ADELAIDE: A Melbourne Brother, who recently visited Adelaide on his way home from Rome, is the first Australian Marist Brother to complete a Doctorate in Sacred Theology. He is Brother Ludovic, who stayed at Sacred Heart College, Somerton, as the guest of Brother Kenneth. whose pupil he once was. Brother Ludovic wrote his thesis—in Latin—on the vocation of the teaching Brother, related to confirmation. It was based on the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas, but involved a prodigious reading of mode - n writers on relevant subjects. The defence—also in Latin—of the principal argument of his thesis took place before a panel of seven eminent professors in the Lateral Pontifical University. The Moderator, Monsignor A. Coombes, warmly acclaimed his brilliant presentation of a subject about which he said little had been written before. While in Rome, Brother Ludovic was chosen to present a candle from the Marist Institute to Pope Paul VI on Candlemas Day.

COUNCIL PROVIDES A CHALLENGE FOR ORDERS

T

HE challenge of the Council is felt with particular acuteness by the Religious Orders because their constitutions frequently oblige them to resist any aggiornamento.

Italy, Spain, Belgium, England, Czechoslovakia, U.S.A., Rumania, Australia, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, Tanganyika, the Congo and Taiwan. This vigorous expansion has made it aware of new needs, but it is also a tribute to the original conception of the Society.

The Salvatorians will face this problem when their Society's General Chapter, held at six-yearly intervals, begins in Rome in May.

Founded Under Oppression

A new factor within the Salvatorions, however, will encourage the Society to rejuvenate itself—within the last few years Americans have become more numerous than any other nat.ionality among professed Salvatorians. At present 23 per cent of the professed belong to the American Province, while 21 per cent are Germans and 15 per cent are Polish. It is probable that, for the first time, the General of the Salvatorians will be American. Previously, the General of the Society has always been a German, with exception made for one Swiss General. But the Society, founded in 1881, has grown more than any Order founded since that time. It has over three thousand members and is at work in Germany, Austria,

dan, who had been a housepainter before receiving a late vocation, founded the Divine the of Society Saviour when Bismarck's Kulturkampf excluded the Religious Orders. Father Jordan took the Society of Jesus as his model for many aspects of his Order and established its houses along the frontiers which divide4,Belgium, Switzerland and Austria from Germany. From these houses the Salvatorians were able to cross into Germany and questions were raised in the Prussian Parliament about t his "menace on the borders of the nation."

They have three missions —in the ex-Beigian Congo; in Tanganyika under the first and only Salvatorian bishop, the American Arnold Cotey; and in Taiwan, where they transferred on their expulsion from China. In the United States they run parochial schools, retreat houses, colleges, a mission to the Indians in Oregan and two missions among tyre Negroes in Alabama, as well as the diocesan seminaries at St. Nazianz, Wisconsin; Blackwood, New Jersey; Galt, California; and Sioux City, Iowa.

wide range — abolition of spiritual readings in refectories so that meals be an occasion for the exchange of opinions; an increase in the number of consultants because of the expansion of the Society: a more pastoral theology for seminarians and more contact with parishes during the years of study; religious habit confined to liturgical occasions, civilian clothes to be worn in public places, but with a distinctive sign such as a badge with the Society's initials S.D.S. Many other subjects have been suggested for discussion, but two are of particular interest. The first is that of vocations. The Salvatorians, like almost every other Religious Order, are having a vocations crisis in Europe. Spain is the only exception, but as the standard of living slowly improves even there vocations are beginning to drop.

RESPONSIBILITY

"THE CATHOLIC WEEKLY" Sydney, has received the following letter from Bishop Muldoon, Auxiliary Bishop to Cardinal Gilroy: Sir,— I have received a letter from the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Ampol Petroleum Limited with a request that its contents be put before your readers, I quote the pertinent passages of the letter: "Ampol undertook, when we entered into the contractual arrangement with Channel 7 for the sponsorship of the Mavis Bramston Show, not to interfere in any way with the script or the material content of the programme. In fact, Channel 7 made it a condition of the contract that we had no right to do so.

No Interference

ment, and our Board, have expressed the view that the show does not require any over-emphasis on matters or subjects which are objectionable to moral or religious sensitivities, to make it successful. This point of view we have registered strongly with the television station in the last few weeks. "At our Board Meeting last Wednesday (March 24) the question of this overemphasis was again debated and it was resolved that we should advise the television station of our views. This was done by our Managing Director on March 24.

Little Evidence Sponsors have a moral responsibility, not only to the shareholders who make their companies possible, but also to the community. There has been little evidence of it in the present case. By sponsoring the programme, thereby making its actual existence possible and by simultaneously deliberately forgoing all responsibility for it, in the eyes of the public the sponsoring company is inescapably responsibile for the programme as it is. One does not so easily abdicate one's responsibilities. No company may expect sections of the community to contribute finance, whether by way of shares or of support for its products, if a portion of that finance is to be used wantonly to insult the contributors.

The Chairman of Ampol kindly showed me the -letter his Board wrote to Channel 7. In that letter it was stated that the Bramston Show must be cleaned up, otherwise Ampol would have to seriously consider withdrawing its sponsorship.

Sincere Position

I take that as a sincere position. And I ask your readers to judge of this matter not so much by past performances, which could possibly have been due to negligence, rather than to malice and to judge the sincerity involved by what happens in the future. As to the meaning of

"satire," which few people seem to understand, and least of all those responsible at Channel 7 for the production of the Bramston Show, may I respectfully refer all concerned to Fowler's "Modern English Usage," under the word "humour," in the edition I have before me. God is not an object of satire, unless one is completely godless. And since God's revealed doctrines are God, those doctrines are not an object of satire. The Mavis Bramston Show which I hope will continue, has great potentialities if it restricts itself to genuine satire. But to define "satire" as "simply the presentation of another point of view," as the leading personality of the show recently defined it ("Sun," April 5, p. 1) is nothing but the statement of an illiterate.

"Halt"

One may fool some of the people some of the time; and one may fool all of the people some of the time ( though it is hardly likely), but one cannot fool all of the people all of the time. Someone is bound to call "Halt." Then it is up to the community to assert the true scale of values. Otherwise we perish; and it is no use to call upon Almighty God for rain, or survival, or any other temporal gift, Do you request beneficence from the next-door neighbour whom you have gravely insulted? .I-THOMAS MULDOON Episcopal Chairman of the National Catholic Radio and Television Centre P.S. On the morning of Monday, April 5 in answer to persistent calls from a representative of the "Sun" newspaper, I made the following statement: " 'The Sydney Morning Herald,' which is the only newspaper I have read so far on ,the discussion which took place on the Bramston Show last evening, has falsely reported that discussion. The 'Herald' says: 'The panel agreed that if sketches of the type which had recently been criticised were to be shown, the programme -.should be telecast later in the night.' That is not true. The panel agreed to no such thing." Needless to say, the comment was not published, since it was adverse to the newspaper's financial interests in the television station concerned.

'They Have Taken Away My Lord'

"THE INCARNATION was I realised in the historical process, not as men 'wade sense of it, but as it made sense of men." There was a time not so long ago, when the frontiers of Europe were defined by Easter, and EPurope lay within the fear and promise of the four last things. It was not Shakespeare's fancy but good metaphysics that described all the world as a stage — to demonstrate that . it had been fashionable purposely for a drama, whose Author was also spectator and actor — Creator, Redeemer and Judge. For "God had created man in His own image" and had given him dominion over the whole earth.

That strange institution which had been left behird after the Risen Body of Christ had confronted the desperation of the whole world — which continued the Christological discussion through the decline of all the civilisation _there was, successive tne through waves of barbarism and the advance of Islam—was able to produce a new cultur•-•:) out of the chaos that was. It was in the habit of obedience that the monks of the West laid the foundation of Western industry and culture, good manners and good sense. Gregory the Great, and Charlemagne and Hildrehrand, who trusted that strange institution, which had no existence save as the Voice of the Word made Flesh, had one taste in common — they preferred reality to illusion.

called Reformation is the greatest disaster that has befallen mankind. As he lay dying in August, 1559, Pope Paul IV sensed tne nature of the disaster that had taken place and spoke these words: "From the time of St. Peter there has not been a pontificate so unfortunate as mine. How I regret the past! Pray for me." For the revival of learning which preceded the thing that goes by the name of the R eformation produced strange effects on the human mind. In the physical world Copernicus had already dismissed the ancient Cosmology which for two thousand years had imagined an organic universe, and put forward instead the contrary doctrine that the sun and not the earth is the centre of our system, round which the earth revolves, r otating on its own axis. Ran-ms, the French Huguenot, slain in the St. Bartholomew Massacre, transformed the ancient logic of Aristotle and St. Thomas Aquinas, which had been a method of learning and contemplating truth, into a method of winning arguments. Between them the new physics and the new logic delivered the scientific mind f rom the status of creature hood—the new Cosmology oy describing an inorganic universe the only centre of which was the scientist himself, and the Jansenism which came to supersede the logic by devising a method on inventive speculation which needed no revelation and reached no final truth. By the time that Newton had established his universe. man, self-deified, suffered the loss and enjoyed the emancipation which Milton puts in the closing words of "Paradise Lost"— "The whole world was all before them, where to choose their place of rest." Every man was on the way to becoming the centre. the creator and destroyer of his own world. * "They have taken awzi my Lord. . ." The agonising words of a grief-stricken Mary Magdalene have resounded through every age . . . Worse still was the change which occurred when Tradition was cut off completely f rom Revelation. That deadly breach was disputed bit 4erly by Thomas More and William Tyndale. More was a very clever lawyer, and, apart from his Catholic orthodoxy, knew the background of truth, and knew too that truth, any truth. cannot be confined exclusively in a manuscript or E licited from the unaided t ext. Tyndale, on the contrary, regarded Tradition as a kind of gossip—the written word was God, and the

Eible was the sole rule of faith. Hence, the translated text, when raised without mediation to the throne of God, might supersede Pope and Council, and by making the dead letter the sum of revelation it was easy to dispense with the pretensions of the Romish Church and all sacerdotal authority. At one blow, the isolation and adoration of the sacred text did with revelation what Copernicus did with the Cosmos; for it changed the living word of the living God into an inorganic collec tion of affirmations all on cne level. Conceived and implicit in this lifeless depository of sacred words was the deism of the 18th century, just as Newton's mechanism was implicit in Copernicus, and Flume's sceptiscism in the logic of Ramus. It was left to John Locke's generation to find a substitute for Our Lady in Heaven, for all devotion to her, and the invocation of the Saints had been abolished and the tradition which had existed for a thousand years before the clash beween St. Thomas Becket and the medieval despotism of Henry II was no more. Even the real significance of Canterbury Cathedral had assumed a new look and the gap in historical comprehension—the inability to understand the medieval—became the tragic reality. That substitute was an abstraction called "the bulk of mankind" — an abstraction which, following so closely the expanse of Empire since the Armada, could be realised in the cities of London and Westminster, where the Seat and definition of "sense and reason" were implicit in Coffee the Bank, The Houses, the Royal Society, the Court and Parliament. When we come to the works of the great Anglican doctors of the 18th century. Berkeley and Butler, proirrelevantly !oundly but Christian as both these men were, the four Gospels can be taken out of their writings, and leave the essence unchanged. Men were soon thinking in terms- of a new humanity — a new master? — a new man? — freedom? — emancipation from the Superstition of Easter?

miracle or the whole Communion of Saints—the transubstantiation of elements or the inspiration of the Church by the Holy Ghost— all lost. And if a messianic hope is lost, not only does the hereafter disappear, but everything that sustains any confidence in the earthly life. Catholics and all believers in Christianity have a tremendous responsibility to. day if the wholesale landslide into the materialism of paganism is to be even checked. People who are fatalistic are not apt to trouble themselves about a future life. One can recall the words of Paul Claudel: "My faith, you see, was never the fruit of reason. It has always rested on obedience—obedience that I owe to God, to his Church." For the long sleep of death over the past 400 years has produced not only strange dreams but hideous cosmic The nightmares. mechanism revolving about the scientist, having ignored the presence of a Church Triumphant, has left man in this nightmare not joint heir with Christ, but slave or tyrant of an enormous and elusive world. Its potential is too vast for him, so that physical science breeds hu man despair, because physical science today is capable of producing every sort of device—physically, mechanically, biologically and sociologically--the magnitude of which overwhelms human control. Yet it is all conceived in human brains, tested on human nerves, in the service of human appetite.

"The fallen angel says to us: 'I 3M your heaven, there is no other hope.' The Prince of this world says to us: 'There is no other world.' The Tempter says to us: 'There is no judge.'

The Liar summarises all by offering us a world without obligations or sanctions, closed on itself but ceaselessly recreated in the image of our own self-indulgence: 'There is no reality.' Finally, Legion utters the last blasphemy: 'There is no ONE.' '

There is no contrasting the Span of Divine Compassion even to make the faith easier for Mary Magdalene. "The last enemy that shall be abolished is death." It is as the Voice of victory that the Church tells the story of Jesus of Nazareth, not biographically as investigating e vidence concerning a buried past, but liturgically with the present language of adoration. "I am with you" was the language of the Nativity. "I am with you all day, even to the end of time" are the words of Easter.

PAPAL VISIT HAD LASTING IMPACT

By a Special Correspondent in Bombay Four months after his return to the Vatican, Pope Paul VI's December trip to Indio is regarded here as one of the most important milestones in the nearly 21000-year -old history of Christianity in this huge subcontinent.

The impact of his fourday visit to attend Bombay's International Eucharistic Congress has been compared with the importance of the arrival of St. Thomas the Apostle on southern India's Malabar Coast in 52 A.D. and of St. Francis Xavier in Goa in 1542. So strong was the impresssion left by his visit on all Indians that even a leftist paper, Blitz, has written: "He left his heart behind in India, but he took with him to Rome the 500 million hearts of Indian humanity. Such was the holy communion, the dialogue of spirituality between the pilgrim Pope and the Indian people." Pope Paul's stay has had a lasting effect on both the nation's tiny Christian minority and on its vast, predominantly Hindu masses.

Better Understanding

since the Pope's departure. A Hindu editor, normally not too friendly towards the Church, wrote: "The Catholic Church today stands in the position of a soldier guarding the thinking of the largest number of people in the world. From Pope John, Pope Paul has received a candle of unequal light. If Pope John has been spreading light to the four corners from one point, Pope Paul is rushing to illuminate dark places with the light of his awareness of the present times." Before Pope John, such comments on the Church and on its head were unthinkable in India. For the Church was then to many non-Christians in India no more than its numerous institutions in the country. And, to the Indian mind, institutions are the least important part of religion. To many Indians, it was Pope John who first separated the Church from institutionalism. In this sense, he was to them the "first" religious leader of the Catholic world, of the stature of their own Hindu religious leaders and holy men.

It has given Catholics a better understanding of the supranational character of their Church and provided a new impetus to the ecumenical movement among all Indian Christians. It has made Hindus more aware than ever before of the Church's presence in their land and brightened Pope Paul's visit was the prospects for a dialogue between Christianity and Hin- physical confrontation with the change.

Looking For Similarities

A Closer Look

It took the Pope's visit to make the people take a closer look at Christianity. One proof of this is f ound in the comments made by Hindu leaders

There may not be an immediate swelling of. Catholic numbers as a result of the visit. What has actually happened is that the Pope has cleared the air for a diologue between the Church and Hinduism. This t

His Holiness Pope Paul VI greeting the people of India on arrival at Santa Cruz Airport. Vice-President of India. to say that the dialogue will be held immediately. It was first proposed • in Rome by an Indian prelate about two years ago, and at that time received the support of a few intellectual Hindus.

Shock Treatment Even now, after the Pope's visit, Hindus are understandably different about any open admission of the necessity for such a dialogue. But the visit was in the nature of a shock treatment which has definitely roused Hindus form their religious complacency. At present, the thought is centred on how to reorganise Hinduism, more or less on the lines of the Church. A few weeks after the Pope left Bombay, R. Sankar, a former chief minister of Kerala state and a leader of the Hindu Ezhava community, said it is necessary tor Hindus to meet once a week in their temple, as Christians are doing. Swami Chinmayananda, a Hindu monk, organised a symposium on "Students and Moral Instruction," very much on the lines of similar meetings held in the past by the Church. The Vishwa Hindu Parish ad (World Hindu Fellowship). an organisation formed in Bombay when the Pope's visit was being discussed, has scheduled a world conference of Hindus early in 1966. It is obviously inspired by the Bombay Eucharistic Congress.

Hindu Hierarchy! Behind all these moves, one can find the anxiety of Hindus to square up organisationally with the Church and Christianity. If the world conference leads to formation of a Hindu hierarchy, as a Hindu writer

recently proposed, most of the difficulties that now stand in the way of a purposeful dialogue will be removed. For, Hinduism is now so completely decentralised that it is virtually impossible to carry on a dialogue with a group of representative Hindus. Among Christians, Pope Paul's visit ushered in a new ecumenical spirit. It commenced shortly before the congress when Valerian Cardinal Gracias of Bombay spoke about the love of Christ on the same platform with a saffron-robed Hindu leader on the Bhafvad Gita, Hindu holy book..

By his side is Dr. Zakir Hussain,

A month after the Pope left the city, Bombay saw all Christians meet in an "act of common worship," a revolutionary step for the Christian way of life and thinking. At this meeting there were Catholics, Anglicans, Methodists, members of the Salvation Army, Mar Thomites, Syrian Othodox and members of other Christian communities. Anglican Bishop Robinson said this act of common worship was a "real step forward in the ecumenical movement." Even the governor of Bombay, RV. Cherian, in his capacity as a Christian citizen, took the opportunity

of urging Christians "to worship as a single group of Christ, worshipping in one church and thereby drawing immense strength from such a union." Cherian, a non-Catholic, was presented to Pope Paul during his stay in Bombay. Commenting on the impact of the Pope's visit, he said: "The Pope's visit did immense good. It carried its own lessons and indicated that there is now a community of interests. People realise there is good in all religions and to that extent people all over the world have been brought closer to each other."

By THE HAWK

He could easily repeat his win in

this race last year. Carrying 21b. more than his Easter Cup impost, Beau Guard gained many supporters for that race following a clear-cut victory in the 11-furlong Pegasus Handicap. His weight of 9.2 rather than the extra furlong of the Cup sets him a rather stiff task in the big race.

Late Run HELD up by rider Mifflin until well in the straight, Dear Henry made a late dash to get up and beat Lady Landau and consistent Australind in the seven-furlong Advance Handicap. Now that he has struck form he could win again. As he is a Night Guardian horse, a longer distance should not trouble him. Never further back than third at his last four runs, Australind led into the straight and only gave in near the post. It seems weight is now catching up with this horse, who found his 9.4 too much. Having his first start since arriving from the Eastern States. Rocky Beach was sent out favourite. Showing plenty of pace until entering the straight, he then dropped back to fifth place, but will 133 thew better tor the race. Dame Ena ran a good race from a wide marble. This improving mare is now at her top and ready to win.

A CATHOLIC PAPER IN EVERY HOME

Never In Doubt

ALTHOUGH Nintoku never looked like losing the Journal Sprint, Greentoi (second) and King Arana (third) were both responsible for good runs. King Arana's performance was the better of the two. He came home at a terrific bat to gain a place, but pulled up badly. A start for him in the Easter Handicap is now unlikely and he only needs to respond to treatment to reenter the winning list. The Nintokli of c onnections 'Slated that after the Easter Carnival that horse would be sent to race in Adelaide and then would possibly join his stablemate Rack and Ruin in Melbourne.

Watersan Promising IT did not take Watersan long to repay his owners for last week's defeat. One of the part owners of the horse said that, while impressed with the win, from a finan cial point of view the horse won the wrong week. The horse was the medium of spirited backing when beaten. Always in a handy position, Watersan toyed with the opposition in the Advance Handicap (2) over seven furlongs. Outsiders in Indian Story and Miss Mc. Laren filled the places, but were a long way from the winner. Interference ruined whatever chance Ninbing

had. The race was too short for Black Bean, who was far from disgraced. The first time this fellow is stepped out in a longer race he will take a power of beating.

Cup Pointer

GOOD horse Beau Guard made light of his 9.0 when he beat Fraser Road and stablemate Mr. List in the Pegasus Handicap over 11 furlongs. Tailed off early, the third horse, who was easy in the betting, came home full of running. Said to be a certain starter in the Easter Cup, he is one who will appreciate the extra furlong of that race. Equal favourite Aptobe, who was well fancied, was esponsible for a bad run. Usually a most reliable horse,- he was never going well in this race—he finished second last and pulled up distressed. He still failed to settle down when taken home. With only 7.9 to carry, Mr. List could turn the tables on Beau Guard in the Easter Cup, but a fit Prince Elliott—he was recently offcolour for a few days—also with only 7.9, could account for them both.

ANOTHER easy win was seen when Chemech cleared out to win the six-furlong Army Handicap for twoyear-olds. Kimberley Star came home well to run second—not quite as good as it looked as the rider of the winner was easing his mount down—with Muette, who has hardly ever been out of a place, well back third. Hot Miss found her wide barrier draw too much and was forced to race wide most of the way. She really looks the part and will be the better for the race. Big colt Bibra Boy again ran a good race, but last week's winner Anita Jean was found wanting. ••••••••••41.4.4ne#M#4.4r#,IsdniNinaP4piniKaP

McKay's Big Day

EX-JOCKEY Peter McKay has orhy held a trainer's licence for a few months, yet at each of the previous two Ascot meetings he prepared a winner, while last Saturday he joined a select band of trainers to win four r aces in the one day in recent year. Three of Peter's winners were ridden by Glen Davies, who turned down the other winning ride. Increasing weight forced Peter out of the saddle. In the light of his early success as a trainer, it is safe to bet he wishes it had happened years ago. A keen, likeable young man with a young family, he has the "known-how" to make a success of training. Readers of these notes might remember that he was the jockey who once told me that he loved riding, loved eating — but of the two he preferred eating.

1 Week's Best

SEVERAL easy wins were seen during the day. While he beat nothing, it was the striking way he won that gives WATERSAN the vote.

Northam Tennis

In the recent Clock Tournament competition conducted by St. Joseph's Tennis Club, Northam, Eva Lettenmaier and David Hicks were outright winners. The afternoon was a great success and although the play was strenuous, no casualties resulted from the "keen" competition On Saturday, April 3, the club held a social in St. Joseph's Hall for the Junior Tennis Club members. About sixty teenagers danced to the music of the local tennis club musicians from modern waltzing to the stomp.

PEEDONG, who has not won a race for a long time, showed his liking for this class of race when he beat Rock Drill and Highway Girl in the seven-furlong Welter. The winner was capably ridden by Keith Mifflin who is riding well and landed a double. Kinglike (9.5) and Sanjean engaged in cutthroat tactics—out in front for five furlongs, as to be expected neither horse gained a place. As Kinglike has only 7.11 in the Easter Handicap, he only has to draw well and be ridden with more patience to cause plenty of trouble to Nintoku

THE STORY OF VERONICA The legend of Saint Veronica, which is enshrined in the Sixth Station of the Cross, teaches a lesson to Christians of all ages.

A

LTHOUGH St. Veronica Am has a feast day on July 12, it is not even certain that she ever existed. So accustomed have we become to meditating on the Sixth Station, and to looking at the picture of St. Veronica ministering, out of her great compassion, to Jesus, that we do not pause the that to remember beautiful legend may possibly have no foundation in fact. As He staggered up the hill of Calvary Our Lord was in a pitiable state. In fact, His exhaustion was such, that the Roman soldiers, afraid that He might die on the way, forced a husky fellow from the country to help Him carry His felon's cross. There is no record of anyone trying to rescue Him, or raising an indignant voice against His plight or demonstrating against this gross miscarriage of justice. Instead we hear of cries of derision, sarastic jibes, and the empty-headed and callous curiosity of the mob agape at any spectacle, whatever its nature. The brave Peter, who had sworn allegiance, and all the other disciples and followers of the days of Our Lord's triumph, were nowhere in evidence. He alone—except we are told that some women followed Him, lamenting in the way of women who are not ashamed to show grief and not afraid to reveal love. They were not the victims of human respect, these women—their only thought was Jesus and His suffering. Veronica, tradition tells us, was one of these women. In order that the prophecies might be fulfilled, Our Lord had taken on the appearance of the despised and afflicted scapegoat, laden with the people's guilt and sin, driven out into the wilderness to die.

Man Of Sorrows "Lo, we have seen Him, and there is no beauty in Him nor comeliness; He is despised and the most abject of men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with infirmity. His countenance is as it were hidden, whereupon we esteemed Him not. His appearance is inglorious

among men, and His form among the children of men. And yet He is the beautiful one above all the sons of men, and by His bruises we are healed." Disfigured as it was by bruises, blood, sweat, spittle and the greyness of exhaustion, the countenance of Jesus had no beauty. Veranica, torn with compassion at the sight of the beloved features, left the shelter of the crowd without counting what might happen to her as a result and wiped the face of Jesus with a towel or veil. The story goes that her charity was rewarded by the miraculous imprint of Our Lord's face left upon the cloth. Who was this woman? It has been said that her very name derives from the words "vera icon" meaning "true image." One version has it that she was Martha of Bethany, another that she was the wife of a Roman officer, another that she was the daughter of the Canaanite woman, another that she was the wife of Zacchaeus, another that she was the woman who had been healed of the issue of blood. In St. Peter's in Rome there is a cloth which is said to be Veronica's veil ( though there is now no trace of an image on it), but there is no proof of the authenticity of the relic, though it is greatly venerated, and it is possible that it has been there since the early eighth century. Painters have often depicted Veronica and her cloth with its image of Christ.

Human Sympathy So here we have a story known to all Christians— a woman we honour each time we meditate upon the Way of the Cross. Yet she is probably only a legendary figure. But whether legend or reality, Veronica in the attention she gave to the outcast Christ teaches a lesson to Christians of all ages, a lesson in human sympathy which many seem unable to believe "Lord, when did we see Thee hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to Thee?" Christ is persecuted in every age. Christ is often frequently .in pitiful need.

RECORD

BIBLE EXPERT DEFENDS TRANSLATION OF NEW TESTAMENT BALTIMORE, U.S.A.:

A

CHARGE that the translation of the New Testament being used at U.S. Masses plays down Christ's divinity was rejected as absurd by a biblical scholar.

Bishop Hubert D'Rosario of Dibrugharh ( Assam ) India, has written to "The Record" in the hope that some readers may be able to supply him with old copies of the paper for his young and good-literature-hungry flock. Any person able to help in this regard is asked to forward back numbers to: Most Rev. Hubert D'Rosario, D.D., Bishop's House, Dibrugarh ( Assam ), India.

Raymond E. Father Drown, S.S., explained the use of "get better" instead of "be healed" in reference to cures effected by Christ and of "has been raised" instead of "has risen" in reference to the Resurrection. The Sulpician priest said the difference comes about because the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine's new translation of the New Testament was made from the original Greek rather than the later Latin. In addition, he said, the new translation does use "rise" and "to heal" in several passages. Father Brown, professor of New Testament at St. Mary's Seminary here, made his statement at the request of the Catholic Biblical Association of America and with the approval of the National Centre of the Confraternity of Christian Doc trine. The priest was vice-president of the biblical association in 1963, is one of the translators of the New Testament in the Anchor Bible series, and holds a doctorate in semitic languages from the John Hopkins University, a doctorate in sacred theology and a licence in Sacred Scripture awarded with honours by the Pontifical Biblical Commission in Rome. His statement came after a nationally televised interview on April 2 with Father

YOUR gratitude for the first Easter Sunday can be shown this Easter by your compassion for Christ, still suffering in His Mystical Body— in the world's starving and diseased. Christ gave His life for us. What more worthy gift can we give to Christ than our life work? "I want to give the monetary results of my life's work," you might say, "but I must live on the income." His Vicar on earth has established a special fund that meets your needs and works to relieve as much suffering around the world as your compassion makes possible. Take out an anunity with the Society for the Propagation of the Faith this Easter. You will give your life work to Christ and receive the income you need during life. An annuity will do this with no deduction for service, and you may be assured that at your death the principal will be given to the Holy Father to be distributed to God poor in the world.

Gommar A. De Pauw, professor of moral theology and canon law at / Mount St. Mary's Seminary in Emmitsburg. Md. TRADITIONALIST MOVEMENT Father De Pauw, who announced the formation of a Traditionalist "Catholic Movement" to oppose many reforms in the Church, said the new translation casts doubt on Christ's miracles and resurrection. Father De Pauw said the use of "get better" in accounts of cures effected by Christ and of "has been raised" in the Easter Sun day Gospel played down the Lord's divinity. Father Brown said more than 15 top biblical translators were involved in the new CCD translation. "Any suggestion that priests of such repute would conspire to translate the Scriptures in such a way as to play down the miraculous power or the divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ is too fantastic to warrant comment," he said. The difference in verbs, he said, stems from use of the original Greek and the translators' faithfulness to it. He added that both "to be raised" and "to rise" appear in the new translation. "If on Easter Sunday from Mark 16:6 we hear, 'He has been raised,' on Easter Tuesday from Luke 24:46 we hear, 'The Messiah will suffer and will rise from the dead,'" he said. "When the New Testament says that Jesus was raised from the dead, it means that the Father raised Him up. Acts 2:24 makes this explicit when it speaks of Jesus of Nazareth 'whom God has raised up.' "That in some passages the New Testament says that Jesus rose from the dead, and in others that God the Father raised Him from the dead makes no difference at all. EXTERNAL ACTIONS "It would be an axiom in theology, known even to beginners, that the efficient external actions of the Trinity are not distinguishable as to the Person who is acting. In other words, when God performs an external action, like raising from the dead, all three Persons are the source of this action. "Thus, in saying that the Father raised Jesus from the dead, we do not have the slightest implication that Jesus did not rise of His own power, for the one and the same divine power or nature possessed by Father and by Son was active," he said. He called it "absurd" to read into the different usage "sinister theological implications." As for the use of "got. better," instead of "was healed," in reference to Christ's cures, Father Brown said the charge that this implies doubt about Christ's divinity "is really stretching semantics." The Greek language, he said, uses many verbs for the healings performed by Christ. The new translation reflects this variation, including the use of the verb "to heal." For instance, he continued, the Greek uses "therapeuein," similar to the English "therapeutic," which the new CCD translation renders "to cure." On Tuesday of the first week in Lent, he said, from Matthew 21:14, Catholics hear that Jesus "cured" the blind and the lame. Another Greek expression, he continued, is the adjective "hygies" similar to the

English "hygenic," employed with the verb "to make," a combination which the new translation renders "to make well" or "to heal." On Tuesday of the fourth week in Lent, from John 7:23, Catholics hear Jesus saying that he "made" a man "well." On Ember Friday in Lent, from John 5:9, there is found a variation of the same expression in: "Immediately the man was healed," he said. Still another Greek verb that is used is "iaomai," employed in the middle or passive voice, and this the

translators render as "get better," he said. Thus, on the Third Sunday after Epiphany, from Matthew 8:13, we are told the boy "got better" after Jesus offered to come and cure him, he said. —It is clear," said Father Brown, "that the new translation has no aversion to using the verb `to heal' in Jesus' miracles. It varies among 'cure, heal, make well, be healed get better,' in order to render different Greek verbs. This is not the slightest connotation derogatory to the miraculous power of Christ," he added.

Challenge Facing Man If the history of man had had to be summed up in one word, that word would be adaptation; adaptation of himself to his environment, and then adaptation — or development — of his environment to his own needs. Today, under the pressure of hunger and rapidly increasing world population, man is faced with a challenge as urgent as any that faced his primitive ancestors when they first began to cultivate the land over ten thousand years ago. The problem is how to develop the vast regions of the earth that are still wasteland, or have returned to desert or jungle after having been cultivated, to provide food and fuel for future generations.

* DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS Dear Boys and Girls, This Sunday we celebrate the greatest of all miracles, the Resurrection of Our Lord, the greatest feast in the Church's year. We commemorate it with joyous olemnity because the Resurrection is s foundation of Christianity. By His the Resurrection, Christ triumphed over death and proved that he was God. Many people fail to realise the true meaning of Easter and regard it only as another holiday and a chance to go away for a few days. We, as Catholics, know there is much more to it than this and should regard it as a time of special devotion. Easter Sunday is one day in the year when we should all be sure to receive Holy Communion. Entries are still coming in for the colouring competition. I wil l keep it going for a couple more weeks. If you haven't already sent your entry in, the Easter break will give you a good opportunity to do so. Remember to take plenty of care with it. I wil l take this opportunity to wish all the junior readers a very happy and holy Easter.

BBC DIRECTOR GIVES OPINION ON OBJECTIVES ADDRESSING

the

International

Roman

Catholic

Association for Radio and Television in Rome( recently, the Director-General of the B.B.C., Sir Hugh Greene, said that the true objectives of broadcasting could be defined in much the same words as those used by Cardinal Heenan to describe the purpose of Ecumenism at the Vatican Council discussions, at which he had been Britain's senior representative. These were the "breaking down of barriers," so that those of differing views "may come to know and better understand" each other's attitudes. This did not mean that broadcasting should try to a void entirely "polemics" or "battles of wits," but the main purpose was "to make the microphone and the television screen available to the widest possible range of subjects and to the best exponents available of the differing views on any given subject."

cedence and experience than by legal instruments. "It is not a commercial company; therefore it is not subject to the legal limitations of Acts of Parliament regulating companies. "It is not a Goveynment department; therefore it is not answerable for its dayto-day operations, and particularly not for details of its programmes, to a Minister or Parliament. "In theory the PostmasterGeneral (the Minister who in Britain is responsible for broadcasting matters in the very broad sense) and, behind him, the Government can, subject to certain safeguards, require the B.B.C. to broadcast or refrain from broadcasting any particular matter, But, in practice, in years (since the B.B.C. began) the right of veto has never been 'exercised in respect of ziny single programme." Subject to a very few restrictions (such as that it must not express its own opinions about current affairs or matters of public policy) the B.B.C. was left alone to keep the delicate balance between freedom and responsibility.

OBLIGATION Sir Hugh Greene expressed a very strong personal conviction that scepticism was the most healthy frame of mind in which to examine accepted attitudes and test views which, in many cases, had hitherto been accepted too easily—or for too long. In everything it undertook a broadcasting organisation must recognise an obligation towards tolerance and towards the maximum liberty of expression for serious thought — an obligation which was not, of course, limited to the B.B.C., nor to broadcasting organisations. As John Milton had put it 500 years ago in his famous essay against censorship. "Where there is much desire to learn, there of necessity will be much arguing, many opinions; for opinion in good men is but knowledge in the making." - Sir Hugh Greene pointed out that Great Britain had no written Constitution, and the B.B.C., too — operating under Royal Charter — was governed much more by pre

JUDGMENT The B.B.C. did not see this f reedom as a total licence. But in an operation so diverse, the only sure way of exercising control was by encouraging the programme staff to apply their judgment to particular problems within a framework of gen eral guidance; coercion or censorship could achieve nothing "except the frustration of creative people who

can achieve far more by positive stimulation of their ideas in an atmosphere of freedom." Attempts at censorship, whether overt or disguised, must be resisted. "I see it as the clear duty of a publicservice broadcasting orgastand firm nisation to against attempts to decry sincerity and vision, whether in the field of public affairs or in the less easily judged world of the arts, including dramatic art. He needed no reminder that broadcasting had access to every home, and to an audience of all ages and varying degrees of sophistication, Sir Hugh said, but in his view programme plans must be made on the assumption that the audience was capable of the exercise of intelligence — and of choice. He did not believe that any subject could be excluded simply for what it was. But editorial discretion must concern itself with the relevance of the times of screening for the intended audience, with the treatment of the subject and the tide of opinion in society. "Outrage is wrong. Shock may be good. Provocation can be healthy and indeed socially imperative." DECISIONS In the last analysis, the decisions of all broadcasting organisations about what to broadcast (and in what form) came back to the "conscience of the programme director"—the titie of his address. In making daily, hourly, even instantaneous decisions on what it was proper to put forward to an audience which might run into millions, B.B.C. producers and their programme directors exercised judgments springing from an ingrained code deriving from some basic standards, determined by personal beliefs, by the general code of practice established by the B.B.C. by ex perience, and by a proper sensitivity to the world around them. He believed that it was in this sort of atmosphere of freedom and tolerance that the conscience should be exercised.

TIARA, BIBLE AT WORLD FAIR NEW YORK: The tiara of Pope Paul VI and a Gutenberg Bible will be the major additions at the Vatican Pavilion of the New York World's Fair when its second season begins on April 21. Monsignor John J. Gorman, pavilion director also announced that the Good Shepherd statue, on loan from the Lateran Museum in Rome, will be repositioned for better viewing. Michelangelo's Pieta, viewed in 1964 by 13,823,037 visitors, will remain in its unaltered setting. Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York, and Bishop Bryan J. McEntegart of Brooklyn will preside at an opening-day ceremony. The Bible, which will be on loan from the General Theological Seminary here, a training house for Episcopalian clergymen, is one of 46 of the first printed Bibles still in existence. It fits into two rarer categories, being one of 35 printed on vellum and one of 22 which is complete.

Even after t he first priests were ordain ed in 1934, it was difficult to find a territory in which they could work, until the Lafayette diocese in Louisiana accepted their services. STEADY PROGRESS The progress since then has been steady. By June, 1964, a total of 146 Negro priests had been trained in the United States, of whom 103 belong to religious orders. Negro Sisters number over a thousand and there are about two hun dred Brothers. The Divine Word Missionaries to date have 64 priests engaged in the direct aposto late among the Negroes in the United States. They care for 40 parishes and 12 missions. Almost a half of the 20 million U.S. Negroes profess no religion. Seven hundred thousand are Catholics and ten million are members of various Protestant churches. VWC%%•%1CIMWM-10004,1i:

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

Unity And "Apostolic Succession" "An Enquirer," Perth, W.A.: Q.: In the interests of Christian unity, I agree that the doctrine of Apostolic Success may be justified pragmatically. R.: The "doctrine" of Apostolic Succession, as held by the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Churches, is either true or f alse. If false, it cannot be justified at all; if true, we have no choice but to accept it. If one holds that, merely from a pragmatic or expediency point of view, Bishops were appointed in the Church and by the Church to supervise things, but without any divinely appointed powers derived by actual succession from the Apostles and to continue till the end of time, he would be repudiating the "doctrine" of Apostles succession as it really is. NATURE OF CHRISTIANITY Q.: Without it, Christianity might have dissolved in a - Welter of indeterminate beliefs. R.: Even as you say that, you rank the doctrine of Apostolic Succession as an "inderminate beliefs," which it is not necessary to maintain. Your whole letter is based on the idea that Creeds don't matter and that there is nothing wrong with indeterminate belief. You have even contrasted Christianity unfavorably with Buddhism, on the ground that Buddhism is not exclusive, with clearly defined • doctrines for which one must make a stand; and that proselytism or eagerness to win others as converts is foreign to it. What you fail to realise is the uniqueness of Christianity as a divinely-revealed religion, which we cannot adjust to our own likes or dislikes but to which we must adjust ourselves, with due submission to God's authority. Christianity did not arise merely naturally from the teachings of some sage like Buddha, who claimed to have attained to wisdom by his own efforts. It is due to the special intervention of God, in the Person of Jesus Christ, within the course of human history, who established His Churchup on His chosen Apostles to continue His w ork, and provided the means and source of our redemption by His own death, resurrection and ascention. There is nothing like this in any other religion that has ever existed. SPIRITUAL MEANING OF IAPOCTOLIC SUCCESSION' Q.: While pragmatically the doctrine of Apostolic Succession may be approved, spiritually it has no meaning. R.: The doctrine of Apostolic Succession supposes a divinely-given spiritual power which cannot be originated by men, but only received, and that by an externally-verifiable transmission within the visible and organic society Christ established and called His Church.

It would be presumption to think anyone could convey the gift of God unless appointed by God to do so as were the Apostles who in turn exercised their divinely-received powers by appointing and consecrating Bishops to succeed them. So to these St. Paul said; "Take heed to yourselves and to the whole flock wherein the Holy Ghost has placed you Bishops to rule the Church of God." Acts 20:28. Acceptance of that as the truth, and not as merely a matter of expediency, is essential. The very validity of

the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist and the Sacrament of Penance, the very powers to consecrate bread and wine as the Body and Blood of Christ, offering them in the Sacrifice of the Mass, and to forgive sins in Confession, powers not of human origin but derived from Christ and transmitted by the Sacrament of Holy Orders through the Apostles and the succession of Bishops tracing their consecration back in an unbroken line to the Apostles, is full of spiritual meaning and absolutely essential to Christianity as intended and given by Christ.

Could God Inspire New Scriptures?

Inquirer, Sydney: Q.: Has God deprived Himself of the power to write Scripture, or has some greater authority taken this power from Him? R.: There can be no greater authority than that of God, able to limit His power. Nor has God deprived Himself of any "power" to inspire the writing of Holy Scripture. He has not chosen to "exercise" His power, however in communicating His revelation to mankind as far as committing His word to writing is concerned beyond having those Scriptures written which are contained in the Old and New Testaments. And even those Scriptures were written mainly that the*, might be of use to the Church Christ established and which He bade: "Go, teach all nations"; with which He promised to be, safeguarding it "all days even to the end of the world"; and to which He said: "He that heareth you, heareth Me.„ So, St. Paul said: "Faith cometh by hearing" (Rom. 10:17)—not by reading. That is, by acceptance of truth on the authority of the authority of the apostolic preaching even though one reads it; not by reading and choosing for oneself what one will believe by an act of faith or confidence in one's own judgment or discernment. St. Luke tells us that the Ethiopan who was reading the Scriptures replied to Philip's question: "Understandest what thou readest?" by saying: "How can I, unless some man show me?" Taught by Philip in the name and with the authority of the Church, the Ethiopian attained to the faith and a due knowledge of the truth contained in Holy Scripture. (Acts 8:27-39). WOULD HIS BE THE CHOICE? Q.: If God has retained the power to write Scripture, can He choose who shall do the writing for Him? Has He delegated this power to someone else to save Himself the trouble? R.: Just as the decision to

ANDERSONS INDUSTRIES PTY. LTD. 2-6 ROYDHOUSE STREET, WEMBLEY 8 2141 — 8 1121

communicate any divinelyrevealed truth to mankind belongs to God alone, so also does the decision to have it committed to writing and the choice of the human agent whom He will inspire to undertake the task.

God has not delegated to anyone else His power in this matter. But no problem really arises here concerning His power. We have to ask in what way, as a matter of fact, God has chosen to exercise His power. He undoubtedly chose those whom He inspired to write such books of Holy Scripture as He willed to have written; but He has not chosen to exercise His power in the inspiring of any further written books to be ranked as Holy Scripture after the death of St. John the Apostle, the last of the new Testament writers. For God's decision to inspire such Scriptures as were written was part of His plan to communicate revealed truth to mankind through Moses and the Prophets of the Old Law; then personally by the incarnation of His eternal Son as Christ, the predicted Messiah and Founder of the New Law; and thereafter by the living voice of the Church Christ founded upon the apostles to continue His work in this world. So St. Paul write to the Hebrews: "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in times past to the fathers by the Prophets, last of all in these days hath spoken to us by His Son" (Heb. 1:1-2). That Divine Son still speaks to us through the Church He established and commissioned "to teach all nations" in His Name and with His authority (Matt. 28:19-20)—the Church having at her disposal for this purpose God's written word as contained in the Old Testament and the further books the writing of which He inspired between the ascension of Christ and the death of St. John the Apostle, books which are contained in the New Testament and which brought to a close the canonical list of divinely-inspired writings ranking as the word of God.
