ThesplitintheChurchofEnglandbetweenthe "Catholic"andthe"Protestant"factionswidened markedlywiththedecisionoftheRev.Walton Hannah,leaderofastrongfactionof"Papalist" Anglicanclergy,toembracetheCatholicFaith.

Mr.HannahissecretaryoftheAnnunciation Group,composedofsome2,000ofthemostactively pro-CatholicAnglicanclergyinthiscountry.He endedhisyearsofpersonaluncertaintybybeing receivedintotheChurchattheJesuitChurchof theImmaculateConception,Farm-st.,London,by FatherAnthonyStephenson,S.J.

Mr.Hannah'sconversion,thoughnotunexpected, followsdirectlyononeofthemostseriouscrisesthat hashittheStateChurchsinceitwaslaunchedby KingHenryVIIIandlaterbyQueenElizabethI some400yearsago.

ThecrisisarosefromtheStateChurch'sofficial decisionlastJulytorecognisethenewinterdenominationalChurchofSouthIndia.Thisisa unionofAnglicans,Methodists,Presbyteriansand Congregationalists.TheStateChurchacceptedthe validityofitsordinationsandconsecrations.

"Freemasonry,"wrotetheRev.Hannah,"stands forreligiousindifferentismandtherapidspreadin theChurchofEngland,evenamongAnglo-Catholic clergy,ofthisreligiousbutnon-ChristianorganisationwithitssystemofoathswhichcannotbejustifiedbytheprinciplesofChristianmoraltheology, isyetanothersymptomthatAnglicanismcannot claimtobeanEcclesiaDocensfearlesslyteaching theFaithofChristtotheexclusionofrivals."

HewentontocriticisetheChurchofEnglandfor its"powerlessnessinthefaceofvestedintereststo makeanyinquiryintothismatter."

Mr.Hannah,whoisunmarried,hopestobe admittedtoBedaCollege,theEnglishseminaryin Rome.

Asforthethen-proposed introductionofMary's Queenshipintotheliturgicalcalendaritwasobjected inparticular:(a)thatit woulddivertthemindsof thefaithfulfromtheallimportantfoundationof liturgicalworship,the"sotereologicalmysteries"of JesusChrist,Hisredemptiveaction;(b)thatit wouldfavourstagnationin liturgicalChristianpiety; andfinally(c)thatitwas innowayinaccordwith thespiritofsacredliturgy.

Andsothecircumstances oftheinstitutionofthe FeastofMary'sQueenship shedsnewlightonthe meaningtothefeastof ChristtheKing,ofwhich itisthecomplement.Its importance,therefore,to themodernworldbecomes evident.

Suchpublicactsofconsecrationwouldnotbe termedstrictliturgical actionsinthetraditional sense.Theyarenonetheless actsofworshipandof reparationnotalientothe liturgicalspirit.

BroadInterpretation

PiusXIIhasclearly pointedoutinthe"Mediator Dei":"Therecanbenoreal incompatibilitybetweenthe liturgyandotheractsof devotion-solongasthey areproperlyconductedand directedtotherightend." HeretheHolyFatherbears directtestimonytothe amplitudeoftheliturgical spirit.

Indeedthefoundersofthe liturgicalmovement,who steadfastlyadheredtothe purelytraditionalinterpretationoftheliturgy,astheir timesdemanded,would havescarcelysurmisedthe breadthofinterpretation giventoitbyrecentPopes.

Thewidebridgebuiltby theformerbetweenso-

calledpopularorpersonal devotionsandthe"objective"poweroftheliturgy "whichtrulymakesour soulspartakersofthelife ofChrist"(`Mediator"),has beenthusshortenedconsiderablybytheVicarsof Christintheirauthoritative interpretationofthetrue Christianspirit.

Theprinciplesstatedby strictliturgists,addsthe HolyFatherinthe"Mediator"encyclical,areexcellent;butoftenconclusion "drawnfromthemregardingthetwosortsofdevotionsarefalse,dangerous andpernicious."

MostGrandiose

Thisisawonderfulexampleofgenuinedevelopmentintruedevotionand worshipunderthedirection oftheteachingauthorityor "magisterium" of the Church.

Thisactofconsecration, whichPopeLeoXIIIcarriedoutwithgreatsplendour,heconsidered"the mostgrandiousactionofhis (my)Pontificate."
