FatherSchram,accompaniedbyMr.GiomFernando,secretaryofthe CatholicInformationServiceinCeylon,hadattended thePan-PacificSocia ActionconferenceinMelbournefromJune21-25.

AtthisconferencedelegatesfromIndia,Burma, Ceylon,Malaya,Indonesoi, thePhilippines,Japan, Hawai,NewZealandand Australiaconsideredthe partChristianityhadtoplay inresurgentAsia.

FatherSchramgaveatalc atChristianBrothers'College,Fremantle,onJuly3, andaddressedameetingof youthmovementchaplains.

TheCeylonesevisitors outlinedsomeoftheenormousproblemswhichstemmedfromtheappalling povertyoftheAsiannations.

InCeylon,saidFather Schram,threemillionslived onlessthan43cents(1t) pence)aday,andanother 800,000onlessthan17' cents(fourpence).

Eightpercent.ofthe populationhadinaverpge landholdingofoneandonefifthacres.Halfamillion wereunemployedbesides themanywhowereunderemployed.

Thestapleindustrieswere primary,about58percent. ofthepopulationbeingengagedinruraloccupations-theproductionoftea,rubber,riceandcoconut. Companiescontrolledthe plantations-90percent.of theareaundertea,and65 oercent.oftherubber.The labourforcewasalmost entirelyCeylonese.

Owingtofreeeducation, includingtheUniversityand medicalschool,theliteracy ratewas51percent.and rising.InthatrespectCeylonwasinabetterposition thanmostothercountries, saidFatherSchram.

Nosimilarstatement aboutPresbyterianswillbe foundinanyofficialCatholicformularies.ItisimpossibleforPresbyterians toclaimsincerely,unless theyarecompletelyignorantofhistory,thatthegulf isnotoftheirownmaking.

Inotherwords,ourCatholicreligionhasanimmediatebearingnolessupon ourliveshereandnowin thisworldthanuponour livesinthenextworld;and toignorethiswouldbethe "sinofangelism,"ifthe neglectwereduetofalse ideasofreligiousandspiritualduties.
