Still awaiting discussion before the synod can close is the matter of fostering greater pastoral unity between the five liberal and two conservative bishops who make up the Dutch hierarchy of seven. They were still to hear a paper by Bishop Descamps of the Biblical Commission, on communion, marriage and confession practices in the Dutch church. Two days have had to be set aside for the revision a nd approval of 30 conclusions proposed as a result of the talks.

POPE Pope John Paul II has been attending as much of t he synod as can be allowed from his other commitments. He is not speaking during the sessions but is said to be taking a keen interest in the proceedings and taking many notes. Proceedings are in secret, with summaries b eing released at intervals. But at the outset the 21 participants and the pope voted to admit the Dutch bishops' Press officer. Henk Kouwenhoven. Pope John Paul has been seen to wink at the only layman in the room. Participants in addition t o the seven Dutch bishops, two representatives of religious orders, are the heads of the various Roman congregations. The Dutch bishop', synod is not a bolt out of the blue. Its topics and directions highlight ideas at work in the Dutch church for several years. This was one of the repeated themes emerging at a Press conference in which two Dutch bishops answered journalists' questions for over an hour.

Bishop Moller also responded to the frequent charge that the Dutch bishops abandoned spiritual formation of priesthood candidates when they closed most of t heir traditional-style seminaries a decade ago. -At the time, they c onsolidated priestly training into five university-related theo logical schools. "At the moment of the erection of these theological institutions it was agreed that these alone c ould not provide complete formation," he said. He said that the bishops emphasized communal living coupled with spiritual formation for the priesthood students studying at those schools. Bishops Ernst and Moller turned aside several questions suggesting a split between Vatican Curia officials participating in the synod and the synod's Dutch participants. (See also Pages 2,3)

This was announced recently by Father Patrick Ahern, the Director for the A rchdiocese. The overall total for the year was $ 205,980 The breakdown of this total was as follows: Propagation of the Faith $149,603 Mission Sunday Collections $ 18,744 Missionary Childhood (Primary Schools) $ 20,384 St. Peter Apostle (Secondary Schools) $ 5091 Sunday Donations S4770 Legacies $ 1427 Interest $5096 Sale of Monsignor McMahous books: "Our Finest Hour" $420 "Double Diamond Jubilee" $442 Father Ahern said that the increase in contributions to the Mission Aid Societies was particularly significant when Catholic people also contributed generously to Project Compassion, the K ampuchea Appeal and various other appeals during the year. The largest single increase in 1979 was the mission Sunday Collection which showed an increase of 54.5q on the previous years contribution. Father Ahern said that he was most grateful for all the help and cooperation he had received from all areas of the Archdiocese during the past year. There has been evidence of a growing awareness of the missionary activity of the Church. If is hoped that this awareness will continue to grow.

If Utrecht needs a fulltime head, several sources argued, the more logical move would be to relieve Cardinal Willebrands of his Christian unity post. But the cardinal is widely respected as the Church's top ecumenist and ecumenical progress continues to be one of the church's highest priorities under Pope John Paul. Several Dutch and Vatican sources rejected the idea that removing Cardinal Willebrands from Utrecht would aid Dutch Catholic unity. Although the Dutch Church is badly divided, they said, he is tha chief figure maintaining what unity it has. Several sources described him as a mediator within the Dutch hierarchy and between the Dutch and the Vatican. Because he is so well known at the Vatican, they said, he knows how t o explain to Vatican officials the attitudes and actions of the church in

the Netherlands Because he is so intimately acquainted with the Vatican, he also is in a better position than anyone to interpret V atican feelings and policies to the Dutch hierarchy and people. On the other hand, one Vatican source commented, some high Vatican officials may not be so happy with the way Cardinal Willebrands has intepreted the Vatican to the Dutch. "Some expected him to 'clamp down'" and be a straightforward conduit enforcing Vatican views on the Dutch, said the s ource, who knows Cardinal Willebrands well.

He added that those who felt that way "underestimated Cardinal Willebrands' character" and didn't realize that "he is his own man." He described Cardinal Willebrands as a moderating, unifying force in t he Dutch hierarchy.

St. Thomas More Six million visit rector leaves famed shrine

V ATICAN CITY (NC) — Approximately six million pilgrims visited the Marian shrine at Jasna Gora (Hill of Light) in Poland during 1979, Vatican Radio said. The total number to view the Black Madonna o f Czestochowa, the statue housed in the shrine, included 4.380,000 who came on the 12 major feastdays of the year and on the three days of Pope John Paul II's visit last June. In addition, pilgrimages from 56 countries -including 315 separate groups from the United States — stopped at the famous sanctuary during the year. According to Vatican Radio, there were 39,000 Masses celebrated in the shrine, at which Communion was distributed to 1,800.000 people. A bout 117 all-night prayer vigils were held befor the Black Madon-

na in 1979, the Jesuit-run radio station reported. The shrine is currently a point of Church-State conflict in Poland as the Catholic bishops have criticized government construction of a super highway which cuts across the traditional route from t he nearby town of C zestochowa to the shrine. The bishops claim the project is an effort to isolate the shrine as most pilgrims arrive first at C zestochowa before continuing to Jasna Gora. T he government is building an underpass for pilgrims, but the bishops say the underpass will be unsafe and unable to handle the huge crowds which normally visit the shrine.

C ounselling attacked: 'prophets' accusation

As I ramble through my experiences, esspecially in America, with modern psychologists, and their followers,Iam trying to r eflect on the relation of modern psychology and morality.

Presentations' origin CORK, Ireland. June 1776 Despite harsh penal laws directed against them, Irish Catholics remain vigorous in their Faith. The latest expression of such vigour has been the founding here of a new Religious Sisterhood. Prime mover in it all is tiny but spirited Miss Honoria Nagle (58) Miss Nagle and others recently took their vows before Bishop Butler, here in the extreme south of Ireland. These Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary have yet to receive final approval from Rome. The founding of the Presentation Sisters is the culmination of Miss Nagle's 22 years struggle to provide a Catholic education for Irish children.

Education struggle "Nano Nagle came from Ballygriffin, over near Mallow" says Mr. Jerry O'Sullivan, a local identity." "She was the eldest of the seven Nagle children" "Her family had been one of the dispossessed Catholic landowners" "As you know, we in Ireland are kept under the thumb by the English" "London makes laws restricting our trade to British markets. They want to keep us poor and Weak, you see" "And, at home, our Protestant Dublin parliament makes laws to keep us Catholics poor and weak"

Cruel laws • "We're not allowed to carry weapons or become M.P.s or have Catholic schools." "Since England got George 3rd as king, in the sixties, there have been signs of some easing of these penal laws. • "Although it does not happen now, in the past there have been hundreds of laymen & priests executed, including Archbishop Plunkett of Armagh" "Anyhow, when Nano went to Dublin at the age of 28 she found that the only legal schools (the government endowed ones), were being used for teaching Protestantism" "On her return here she opened a school here in a mud cabin in Cove Lane." "It was illegal, but down here we are along way from Dublin" "In next to no time she had 200 girls at the school"

Education progress "Now she has about 7 schools, 2 of them being for boys" "She obtained help from the Ursuline nuns; and now, finally, she has been able to start her own community of Sisters"

Around the Churches this week An up-to-the -moment report by Father JOSEPH RUSSELL "In spite of England's heavy hand, her schools are providing a rudimentary secular education for Catholics, who are also receiving religious instruction and preparation for the Sacraments at them" The English thumb is pressing down not only on Ireland, but also on many places in the New World. New Holland has been claimed by England since Yorkshireman, Capt. J. Cook, accidentally found its east coast six years ago.

Overseas expansion Three years ago, when France had to seek an end to its war with England, the treaty gave England the north American colony of Quebec, and also the control of India. The English already have the old Dutch colony of New Amsterdam, known now as New York, since Dutch Governor P. Stuyvesant surrendered in 1664. All is not well in English colonies of America, however. Colonists have been chafing for years under heavy taxation and trade restrictions imposed by England. There are unconfirmed reports that revolt has broken out in some colonies, led by a General George Washington. A Catholic priest is reported to have been involved in a secret mission on behalf of Washington's revolutionaries.

Catholics divided Father John Carroll, together with Mr. Ben Franklin and Mr. Sam Chase, are said to have visited Quebec colony last year. Their aim was to get Quebec colony 'on-side' (as they say in this new game of 'soccer' in England); or, at least, neutral. Fr. Carroll, a Maryland-born priest, is highly regarded by General Washington. He speaks French fluently, having studied there. The mission to Quebec is believed to have failed. French Bishop Briand, of Quebec, would have nothing to do with Fr. Carroll.. The bishop is reported to be a loyal supporter of English authority in Quebec. If there is a war, the 13 English colonies in America will have to go it alone: against England: possibly France; and, certainly, the American Indians.

Pope on problems of Rome

Church in the Philippines nation of contrasts As a young boyIdreamed of being a missionary andI am sure many people have at one time thought of the life of challenge that awaits a missionary in a foreign land. The missionary in the field is likely to be the first to or play down this idealisticvision.of the missions. eny d

Risk, excitement

as I There is still a bit of excitement left, at least Philippines. the in recently it xperienced e For example, when the little diesel engine of our (a vessel like an outrigger canoe) broke pum-boat" " of down off the coast of Mindanao, I had visions the in drenched sea, open the on night the pending s perhaps a sitting tropical rain that had developed, and in that area. about heard we'd that pirates the target for at the end drive four-wheel by back travelling hen W of the rainy season, when the vehicle got thoroughly bogged, I was wondering just how long we would be stuck in that isolated area. Even travelling by more conventional means, I had to get used to waiting for a bus that is almost inevitably running late, and usually crowded, dusty and dirty; or trying to get a night's sleep in a canvas bunk while travelling by boat, with hundreds of other people squeezed on the decks like cattle. But perhaps one is lucky to have means of transport at all. In many places, especially in the mountains, walking is still the only way to get around. However, while physical conditions are probably not as harsh as they used to be in the old days (thoughI just couldn't get used to the ides of sleeping on a mat on a bamboo floor), there has .been a far more fundamental change in approach to the missionary life of the Church.

Why evangelise? Evangelisation is no longer to be seen as only a oneway process, in which people and money are sent from a richer to a poorer country. The whole Church is in need, and always in need, of e vangelisation. The Church is a family, a universal family, whose members are called to share their spiritual resources. What can we learn, how can our church be enriched by the life of the Church, embedded in other cultures? Perhaps the day is not far away when we will look to missionaries coming from some of the African and Asian countries. At least in some of them vocations are coming forth a lot more readily than in most of the Western countries today. The Church in the Philippines today is facing a very. challenging, even exciting, situation. The big question to ask is why in a country so Christian (80% Catholic, and the Church has been there for 400 years) is there so much social injustice? Why are people who are so warm and friendly at the same time experience so much oppression and suffering?

Natural resources It is said that the Philippines is a poor country. But t his is not because the country itself is not rich in natural resources. Others feel that the Church has to challenge the structures of the society and that the Church is strong enough and in a unique position to do this.

By Father Geoff ALDOUS Nor is it simply because there are so many people at least in the eyes of Australian visitors -- to share these resources.

Either Rich or Poor

What is obvious is the extreme gap between the rich five per cent of the population at the top and the Ivor, the very poor. There seems to be very little of the middle class to which we are accustomed in Australia. This was brought home to me in one day when first I attended Mass at one of the big churches, where so many people turned up in chauffeur-driven limousines, beautifully dressed and looking very sophisticated. Later I visited a sugar plantation with the National Federation of Sugar Workers, one of the few real or free unions still able to operate in the country, and whose secretary is a diocesan priest, Fr. Edgar Saguinsin. There I saw what happens to people when they are exploited by those with the power and control. The sugar-cutters might have to work for less than one Australia dollar. Their children miss out on proper education and are usually suffering from malnutrition; the workers totally dependant on the land-owner and end up being drained of all human spirit and initiative. What does faith say to this situation? I visited a squatters' settlement in. Malate, Manila, where an Australian Columban, Fr. Colin McLean. had lived with the people for three years. A s I concelebrated Mas with the little Christian community in the alley that constituted the church,Icould see the glamorous hotels and buildings for tourists/rising in the background. That is the contradiction that marks life in the Philippines.

Seeking answers What is the Church's response to this situation? Some priests and sections of the Church carry on in the traditional way.

They say that the Church should identify more ss ith the poor, rather than with those who are doing well out of the system. One of the most important ways of attempting to do this is by building up Basic Christian Communities within the parishes. A large parish may have as many as 30,000 Catholics, living perhaps in 50 different village communities. Through a programme of very solid training and formation people are helped to think for themselves, to realise their dignity in the light of the gospel and to take responsibility for their full human and Christian development. At the liturgical level communities that can only be visited once or twice a year by the priest for Mass arc conducting their own Sunday liturgies (nonEucharistic), flowing from the life situation of the people and, in cases that I saw, very impressively carried out. At the social or political level lay leaders are very easily branded 'subversive' by the government, with the result that they may be living under close surveillance, and in many cases arrested and detained in prison under the conditions of martial law.

V ATICAN CITY (NC) — Rome's problems must be confronted not only on an administrative level but also from a moral and spiritual point of view, Pope John Paul II told the city's p oliticians during an audience Jan. 7. Greeting a delegation led by Mayor Luigi Petroselli, a c ommunist, the pope centered on housing, education and the dangers facing youths as the city's major problem areas in 1980. "They are problems of a civil-administrative order and also problems of a moral and spiritual order," he said. P ope John Paul said Rome's housing shortage "shows a persistent state of hardship — especially for young couples who give life to new families." The factors involved in the educational crisis include a lack of proper facilities, requiring schools to conduct classes in two or three shifts, he said. Among the "impending dangers" facing Roman youth, he added, are high unemployment, increasing incidents of violence and drug abuse. The pope pledged the church's aid in working for s olutions to Rome's problems on the ,moralspiritual level and said he felt a responsibility "to do all in my power for the integral development of Rome." "This is the commitment of all the church in Rome, with the lively efforts of its priests, Religious and generous laity, ready to take part in the common work," he added.

W.A. Columbans in action University

1 was able to see the Church in action in the Philippines through the wonderful hospitality of the Columhan Fathers, who see themselves as supporting the work of the local Church and in some cases being in a position to give a lead through experimental works or communities.

Fr. Frank Chapman, originally from North Fremantle has extraordinary energy and enthusiasm for a man who is over the normal retiring age. In the parish of Alubijid, Mindanao, he has a traditional mission set-up, moving around the different villages for Mass and bringing to the people the sacramental ministry of the Church. While I was in this parish I attended a day Seminar for the catechists, who came in from the different villages to plan and prepare for their next month's classes. They were certainly an impressive lot, all in their blue uniform dresses and with an obvious joy and commitment in their work. I think they would be a source of great inspiration to the people in Australia who carry on the work that is equally important, though perhaps carried out in more difficult environment. Fr. Warren FORD, to those who know him, is a man whose charismatic personality would enliven any work he was doing. He is coordinator of social action in the diocese of Pagadian, on the island of Mindanao. His special concern has been to develop local cooperative projects for Moslems and Christians, so that by working and sharing together they may be able to break down the barriers ot suspicion and hostility. I visited some of these projects in the outpost of Dimataling, a town that was destroyed by fire during the Moslem-Christian conflicts of the early 1970's. I travelled down there with a Medical Missionary of Mary who is a qualified doctor and a Daughter of Charity. They work with a community based health programme, an Gxcellcat project that trains people at the local level to mset their own health and medical needs. I also visited Fr. Paul COONEY, a Colum ban Father in the parish of Dinas, whose brother, Fr. Steve Cooney, is a Norbertine at Kerry Downs, York. Also in this area I met some Australians working the Philipino Australian Development Aid Project in

constructing a road that will give all-weather access to Dimataling and some of the other isolated villages in the area. Fr. Brian GORE, also from Perth, is involved in an experimental parish up in the mountains of Negros, the great sugar-producing island of the Philippines. I spent several days with him in the communal set-up for the parish team, which comprises a family life and health worker, two teachers for the developmental school, two agricultural teachers, as well as three leaders who work in the formation and development of the Basic Christian Communities. There are about fifty of these communities throughout the parish, providing a great source of strength and support for the people in their daily Christian life and struggle for justice. While I was at the parish centre there was a seminar for core-group leaders who came down from their villages in the mountains. One could not but be impressed by their eagerness for training, their realistic and down-to-earth sense of faith, their courage and commitment to implanting the Gospel in the life and situation of their people. This was dramatically and beautifully expressed in their liturgy, which was full of dialogue, action and song.- There seem to be seminars everywhere and in NegrosIattended a pastoral seminar and got to know a number of the younger Filipino priests. Their mission, in a land filled with so much tension and contradiction. is one that won't be easy. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity ot experiencing with them that vision of the Church.

Crucial role of youth in solving problems

Bassendean acts on jobless; those in work discuss initiatives The summer doldrums are over and it is time to get back to school and back to work. For many there will be no jobs to go to. (By the way, "Beyond Unemployment" suggests that the term "work" be applied broadly to all human activity paid or unpaid and include housework and voluntary work). The next four speakers Mr. John Kartree, Department of Labour, Mr. John Cartner a nd Mr. Peter Casey, Commonwealth Employment Service, Midland and Morley, and Mr. R. Cotton, principal of the Perth T echnical College, all presented various initiatives that are or could be taken to help alleviate unemploment.

Last Monday night the town of Bassendean showed they cared for the unemployed. At a public meeting at the Civic Centre over one hundred interested people listened to six speakers and t wenty-five formed an action group to investigate the problem further. Mrs. Beverley Ravenscroft, from the local Christian Life g roup, was the chief organiser. From the comments of s peakers and audience during the evening, she listed 22 problems and 22 solutions about unemployment.

P ARENTS The vast majority of those p resent were those with secure jobs three of them b eing employers. Also present were six parents of unemployed youth and six unemployed people. The Mayor of Bassendean. Mr. John Patterson, chaired the meeting and introduced t he first speaker, Leo Wright, a young person who has been unemployed since last August. Leo spoke of the hardships associated with eking out an existence on unemployment benefit day by day and the sense of worthlessness that c omes after repeated unsuccessful interviews for jobs.

RESPECT As second speaker of the evening. I stressed the need t o respect unemployed persons and not judge them. To call them bludgers is ignorant and destructive.

FOR HIRE

They need the protection of the collective Catholic position that, in other nations such as the USA and C anada, a united national Catholic Health Association provides. These national (and State) health associations represent to governments and the people the priorities and achievements of the Catholic health system, which includes the hospitals, nursing homes, community health services and nurse training programs. In Australia, we presently lack a strong secretariat in the newly-formed Australian Catholic Health Care Association, created in August 1979, after a national meeting in 1977 endorsed its formation. Delays in forming this secretariat are prejudicial to the future of Catholic hospitals in Australia. sense the need for this sort of National body to demonstrate clearly at least to four audiences its intent to anticipate and lead future social opinion and responsible reform of the health system: First, it should signify to the nation the Church's determination to resist a number of untoward dimensions of social change. (Not the least of these is the deteriorati,on of the value of human life and the importance of the family and the bewilderment of individuals.) Second, it should signify to governments the leadership role that the Church sees itself taking to achieve a more efficient, accountable use of scarce human and physical resources in hospitals and related health services. Third, it should signify to its members (pastoral, religious and lay) that the Church intends to be more responsive to the realities of social change in its future approach to community service and to human development. Fourth, it should signify to its critics that the Church's future responses on a range of social issues (including health costs) will, in the future, be less reactive and more anticipatory, based on careful study and on a commitment to the prevention of a range of social ills before their consequences appear at the door of the hospital.

Three Issues

CORBET: Elizabeth (Lill), Loved wife of W ally (dec'd), Loved mother of Vincent and Paul (dec'd), Loved daughter of late Henry a nd Jane Staines. Dearest sister of Rose and Jennie. Lord have mercy.

I want to now address three broad issues relating to specific dimensions of the crisis that we face. These issues concern: • A Catholic-based national . secretariat of the Catholic Health Association. • A Catholic philosophy for institutional care and the curriculum for the health professions. • The future assessment of new medical technologies. Some practical concerns requiring a united response. Ten years hence most Catholic hospitals will probably not exist in their present form — with advisory boards who are not responsible to a wider public: for example, with religious sisters as administrative officers: or with large numbers of religious nursing staff. Some orders will probably have joined forces with other Catholic orders to provide specialised services such as hospices for the dying, nursing homes and care of the frail aged, care of handicapped and mentally retarded persons, foster houses for children, and so on. Other Catholic hospitals may still exist only because a strong united front was presented to governments who have legitimate concerns with the effectiveness, efficiency and costs of the Australian hospital system. For example, it is not unrealistic to envisage the time when there is mutual agreemebt with governments that:

To achieve these goals of equity and fair treatment in futue government policy, a national response will be needed. This response at. least involves the creation of a small Canberra-based secretariat professionally and r esponsibly representing the views of the Catholic health system to Ministers, Parliamentarians and Government departments.

hospitals if the problems that confront us require both a national political visibility and indivdual state action. A Catholic philosophy and ethic of health care. Beyond these problems of survival and advocacy, there is a potentially more serious issue of achieving a Catholic philosophy of "health" and "health care" that can be represented to our political leaders and to the public, and which can be implemented in Catholic health services. Given the tremendous growth in new medical technologies and the consequent ability of medicine to sustain life and terminate suffering, it is clear that Catholic hospitals need to assess whether the Hippocratic oath and the moral law give sufficient support to the practising doctor and the Catholic hospital. My concern, adequately documented by Dr. Edmund Pelligrino, an eminent physician and president of the Catholic University of America, is that, to deal with the problems of medical technology applied to the prolongation and maintenance of human life, we urgently need a universally accepted reconstruction of our codes of medical morality. _ The relationships of moral codes and ethical code's have been adequately documented by a number of recent writers. As Archbishop Quinn of San Francisco, who is the president of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops, indicated to the 8th US Catholic Health Assembly in June 1979, doctors face the "old" questions (such as medical transplants and care of the grossly deformed neonate and terminally ill) and the "new" questions of foetal experimentation and in vitro fertilisation.

Medical Morality He said: "In dealing with these new questions, it is not that we lack the moral wisdom from the past to assess them, but the practical moral decisions they force us to confront as issues of both personal and public morality have never faced past generations. . . "The most difficult moral choices, however, arise at the point where the social justice questions and the medical-moral questions intersect." Archbishop Quinn went on: "Catholic social teaching maintains that health care is a right and is neces'sary for the protection and promotion of human dignity. . . " At the same time, expanding (government) intervention means greater specification by law and policy of the kinds of health care which should be provided at public expense and the range of health services which are to be available at institutions receiving receiving public funding. . . "The very strength and clarity of our Catholic moral teaching means that we hold quite explicit positions or, some of the most controversial questions of the day: abortion, foetal experimentation, euthanasia, contraception and sterilisation. "And so we come to the question, how are we to relate our social justice objectives and our medicalmoral concern in a coherent policy?"

A coherent medico-ethical policy for Catholic institutions.

His solution is the solutionIhave longadvocated for Australian Catholic health services. We need a new forum that facilitates a more systematic consideration of how to use our collective Catholic resources, lay, professional and religious. We -need to develop a coherent, consistent moral policy that conforms with the Church's moral teaching.

consider the message of Fatima. Our Lady asked for prayer and penance. The spreading devotion to the Rosary is indicative of prayer andI would crave the hospitality of your columns to bring to notice a form of penance which is gaining ground. Lent is a penitential period. Persons have volunteered to fast on other days of Lent apart from the two that are obligatory. Because of this, there will be at least one person fasting on every day of the forty days of Lent. These fasts are being offered up in reparation for their own sins and that of the world. This is in response to Our Lady's message at Fatima. In most cases, people are fasting on a particular day of each week in Lent. This letter is meant as an invitation to others who may care to join this penitential exercise. They may fast as they like, t wice a week, weekly, fortnightly or even for only one extra day in Lent. I would be grateful if interested persons would write to me, giving the day or days on which they would be prepared to fast. REGINALD MAHER 31 Rinaldo Crescent Coolbellup, 6163

HOSPITALS (from P. 10) And so coherent policy for Catholic institutions is seen as a precondition for the ultimate test of shaping health policy in Australia. We need to go further. We need clearly stated ethical codes for all the health professions, giving them guidelines to correct conduct derived from moral precepts. Dr. H. Thomas Ballantine an eminent Harvard surgeon, questioning the adequacy of the principles of h medical ethics advocated by the American Medical Association, gives a considered opinion which has r great relevance to the Australian medico-ethical context: "It is clear that the medical profession and the community it serves require a code of ethical behaviour with standards that conform with the law but are morally superior to legal codes and rules that govern the rest of society. In this respect, medical ethics can be regarded as `higher that the law' although not `above the Law'." It is clear that a code of ethics, regardless of how well it is written, is not a complete response to the malaise that is causing public concern with the medical profession and the costs it generates. The force of moral and intellectual leadership is required for moral regeneration. as Ballantine indicates. Curriculum for the health professions. The medical student and the nursing student and all students of the health professions rarely obtain insights in their training to what Pelligrino calls: "The / intellectual foundations of Christian practice and / morals, especially as they pertain to clinical decisionmaking." He says: "The systematic study of philosophy, theology and ethics enables the student to locate himself or herself as a Christian with reference to today's increasingly frequent moral dilemmas and conflicts of obligations." A National Catholic Health Association could be expected to make a major input to the development of curricula to provide these necessary philosophical insights, not only to students training in Catholic hospitals but extending the sphere of influence to provide model curricula and teaching programs to academic medical schools. It could begin some pilot developments in its own Catholic nursing schools, and the innovative Catholic hospital can give leadership in this matter of curriculum reform to stress this aspect. A dominantly secular curriculum does not seem to he working at this moment. We are now hearing too often in Australia that students just don't seem to care about what they learn or how they learn.

New Technology The development of appropriate health technologies. The coming years will see widespread attempts to assess the impact of a new medical technology — for example, a surgical procedure, a drug. a new machine or a new method of maintaining patient records -before it is allowed into widespread use. This assessment is not likely to be the limited clinical assessment of the past which involved practising clinicians and reseachers studying only the effects on the patient's health of a treatment, or a drug or a machine. It will include an assessment of the sociological. psychological and economic consequences of introducing the technology into clinical practice. It will also involve an assessment of what impact the adoption of the technology will have on existing methods and on the workloads of doctors and the other health professions, and on innoVation in the manufacturing industry. The Catholic health system could do a lot worse than anticipate these more comprehensive assessments, and commence some carefully designed assessments in Catholic hospitals and related health services. I would argue that leadership in this area of assessment and development of the most appropriate health technologies is critical to the credibility of the Australian health system and medical practice. This leadership can come from the individual doctor in charge of a unit, from the individual hospital board, from the royal colleges — for example, surgeons. physicians, obstetrics, gynaecology. general practitioners, psychiatrists — and nursing associations, and from the Catholic Health Association. My final challenge in this 40th anniversary memorial oration is to ask you: do you care enough about the Catholic health system to set yourself two goals?: TO FIGHT individually to preserve what you have developed and TO JOIN forces with other parts of the Catholic health system to demonstrate to this nation that we have something that ought not be allowed to wither on the vine, namely a Catholic philosophy and practice of medicine and health care?
