FrenchY.C.W.LeaderTells HowHeCameHome

Australiawithitspeoplerathersatisfiedwiththeirwayoflifewas comparedwithAsiaanditsobviousneedsbyaformerNationalPresidentoftheY.C.W.inFrancewhovisitedPerthlastweek.

TheFrenchman,Rene Delecluse,whoisnowan organiserfortheYoung ChristianWorkers'MovementinAsiancountries, saidthatunemployment, housingshortagesanda generallackofmaterial benefitsmadeAsiaan easierfieldforCatholic ActionworkthanAustralia,wheremanypeople werequitecontentwith theirlivingconditions.

Withhissparklingwitand continuousflowofstimulatingideas,Deleclusemadea remarkableimpressionon themanypeoplehemet duringhisshortstay.

OntheWednesdaynight ofhisarrival,speakingata Y.C.W.rallyinHighgate ParishHall,hetoldthestory ofhowhehadchangedfrom livingasalapsedCatholicto takingonfull-timeworkin thelayapostolate.

"Alongwithfiveorsix friendsofmine,"hesaid,"I wasquitefondofdancing andsport;butdancingin Franceusuallytakesplace onSaturdaynight,whileunlikeAustraliaoursportand gamestakeplaceonSunday morning,sobetweensleepinglateonSundaymorning andthengoingtooursport wejustforgotaboutourreligiouspracticesforfiveor sixyears.Wethoughtthat sportwasmuchmoreimportantthanreligion-and alsoweconsideredreligion tobeabitoutofdate.

"Theonlypeopletospeak tousaboutreligionwere ourpriestsorourparents. Thepriestswedidnotmeet veryoften,especiallysince noneofushadbeentoa Catholicschool;ourparents wereonlyhalf-convinced aboutreligionthemselves, althoughtheythoughtit woulddosomegoodforus. Wewerenottookeenabout justfittinginwiththetraditionsofourparents,sowe juststoppedgoingtoMass.

"However,italsohappenedthatthesixofuswere inclinedtoshowoff.We wereworkers,butwewantedtobemorethanworkers, Wehadheardofstudents andbigpeoplereadinga lotofbooksandspeaking aboutawidevarietyof

topics,andsowestartedto readbooksbywell-known Frenchwritersandother authorsaswell.Thiswent onuntilonewecameacross abookinwhichthewriter setdownthestoryofhis conversion.

:ItwaswritteninlanguagethatIcouldriotquite follow.withlotsofbigwords andtechnicalterms,soI gaveittoafriendofmine. Thesixofusreadit.Wedid notgetveryfarinunderstandingit,butstillIthink thatitwasOurLord'sway forus.

"Religionwassomething outofdatetous,something foroldpeople,butwesuddenlydiscoveredthatsome ofthetoppeoplenotonly readbooksaboutreligion buteventookthetroubleto writebooksaboutit.We couldnotunderstandwhat theywrote,butwewereso proudthatwewantedto understand.Webegan studyinga'itaboutreligion.

"Thenoneofthegroup suddenlysaid:'Listentome, youchaps.Doyouknow whatthiswilldo.Thiswill leadusbacktogoingto church!'Wethoughtabout thatandsomebodyhadthe couragetosay:'Yes,it might,butsowhat?'And somebodyelseadded:'Ifwe dogoback,itmustbefor something.'Wedidgoback, butourattitudewasexpressedbyanothermember ofthegroup,whosaid:'I don'twanttobea50per centCatholic!Thereisalreadyenoughroutineinmy dailylife,Idon'twantreligiontobeamereroutine.

"Herepliedthatthe Y.C.W.looksatthreethings: God,theChurchandour neighbour.'Youwantto comebacktotheChurchfor God,butyoucannotcome backtotheChurchforGod unlessyougobacktoyour friendsandotherfellows. ThereisnodifferencebetweentheloveofGodand theloveofyourfellowworkers.Youcannotlove Godifyoudonotlove others,andyoucannotlove othersproperlyunlessyou loveGod.'

"Oneofourgrouplistened tothisandbegantothink. Heusedtogotoevening classesandwasinterested inbodybuilding.'That'sinterestingabouttheY.C.W.,' hesaid,"butIwanttocarry onwithmybodybuilding. HowlongwillthisY.C.W. takeus'Thepriestlooked atus:'Howlongwillittake'! Itwilltake24hoursaday."

"Nowthatappealedtous. Wedidn'twanttobe50-50 aboutourreligionand24 hoursadaywasaboutas completeasanythingwe couldthinkof.

ParentsUniteToRaiseChild EndowmentInNextBudget

Therecentupwardsweepinthecostoflivingiscausinggraveconcernamongparents whohavewatchedthepurchasingpowerof ChildEndowmentdwindlethroughoutthe past12yearsandwhoexperiencetheeverincreasingstruggleofbalancingthefamily budgetduringthisperiod.

Theseparentsaredeterminedtofightforjusticefor themselvesandtheirchildreninthe1960-61Federal Budgetduetobeintroduced toParliamentinthenear future.

Theireffortshaveledto theformationoftheChild EndowmentCampaignCommitteecomprisedofrepresentativesofTradeUnions andotherinterestedbodies.

Childendowmentpaymentshavenotincreased since1948exceptforhe grantingof5/-tothefirst childin1950.

Duringthisperiodthe costoflivingmeasuredby the"C"seriesindexhas risenbyover95percent.

ChildEndowmentcalculatedonafamilyoffour childrenhasfallenfrom 25.2percentofthebasic wagein1948to12.6per centofthebasicwagetoday-adropof50percent.

Incoldhardfactsthe families'livingstandardhas progressivelydeclinedover thepast12yearsuntiltoday membersofmediumand largefamiliesaretheunderprivilegedofsocietyand suffergreaterinjusticethan anyothersectionofthecommunity.

Thattheinterestsand well-beingofthefamily shouldbeoverlookedduring thisperiodofunprecedented prosperityisagravesocial anomalycallingforimmediaterectification.

TheCommitteeisseeking theimplementationofthe graduatedChildEndowment proposalspromotedbytTle AustralianCouncilofTrade Unionsin1955,whichisas follows: 5/-forthefirstchild,£1 forthesecond,thirdand fourthchildrenincreasingby 2/6foreachsubsequent childtothetenth.£2for theeleventhandsubsequent children.

Thisschemeisgradedto givethegreatestbenefit wheremostneededinaccordancewiththeprinciplefirst enunciatedbythelateJohn Curtin,ontheoccasionof theintroductionofChild Endowmentin1941,namely,

"Thatmembersofthefamily groupareentitledtothe samestandardoflivingas thatofsimilarworkerswho havenotthesamefamily responsibilities."

As46percentofthetotal costofChildEndowmentis expendedinrespectofthe firstchild,theproposed schemewouldonlycostan additional£40millionpounds -anamountwellwithin reachoffinancialresources availabletotheGovernment.

TheCampaignCommittee isseekingadeputationto theWestAustralianmembersofFederalCabinetand isorganisingaMassRally intheTownHallforMonday,July25at8p.m.

TheCommitteeisconfidentthattheiractivitieswill receivewidepublicapprovalandsupportandtrusts thatthiswillmovetheFederalParliamenttolegislate foradequateprovisiontoensurethefuturewelfareof Australia'sfamilies.

Theletter,signedbyHisEminenceDomenicoCardinalTardini,wasaddressedtoM.AlainBarrere, presidentoftheFrenchSocialWeek,whichconcluded itssessionsonSundaylast(July17).

Themeoftheconference is"Socialisationandthe HumanPerson."Itisa meetingofscholars,sociologistsandprofessional peopletodiscusssocial problems.

CardinalTardininoted thatcircumstancesstemming fromWorldWarIIhaveled toanever-wideningand morethoroughsocialisation.

"Theadvantagesoffered bythisstateofaffairs,both intheeconomic,socialand culturalfields,areundeniable,"hesaid."Inaddition todevelopingthesenseof collaborationandofsolidarity,socialisationcan satisfycertainsocialneeds ofprimaryimportanceina positiveway:forexample, theneedofahome,medical treatment,socialservices, workandleisure."

"Ontheotherhand,"he warned,"socialisationincreasesbureaucraticmachinerybeyondallproportion. Itincreasesthedetailsof thejuridicalorganisationof humanrelationsinallsectorsofsociety'slifeandit leadstomethodswhich constitutetheseriousrisk identifiedtodaywiththe word'dehumanisation.'"

Theletternotedthat "modernmanseesinmany casesthatthespherein whichhecanthinkalone, actonhisowninitiative, exercisehisownresponsibilityorassertandenrich hispersonalityisbecoming excessivelyrestricted,"

Withthisinmind,the Cardinalasked:"Doesit followthatitmaybecome impossibletocontroltheadvanceofsocialisation,and thatitmay,withitsever greatervastnessanddepth, reducemaninevitablytothe roleofanautomaton?

"Certainlynot.Forsocialisationisnottheproductof theforcesofnaturethatact accordingtoadeterminism whichisimpossibleto change.

"Itistheworkofman,of afreehumanbeing,consciousandresponsiblefor hisactions.Ontheonehand, onemustbeabletoprofit bytheadvantagesitoffers. Butontheother,cnemust knowhowtoprotectthe humanpersonfromtheseriousthreatsthatcanarise fromitsexcessiveanddisordereddevelopment."

TheCardinal'sletteralso stressedtheimportanceof "intermediatebodies"such astradeunionsinprotecting thejustautonomyofthe personandthefamily.Such bodies,itsaid,helpsolve complexresponsibilities whichcannotbetackledon alowerlevel.

RomeSuggestsHow ToProtectYouth

Becauseofthedegradingnatureofmany films,notsomuchfortheadultanddiscerningmind,butfortheyoungwhoaremore easilyimpressed,theHolySeehasproposed aprogrammetosafeguardyoungpeople fromtheirharmfuleffects.

HisEminenceDomenico CardinalTardini,who wrotetheletter,acknowledgedthefactthat"the educationofyouthdepends primarilyonthefamily andtheChurch."

Theletterwasaddressed toMgr.JeanBernard,presidentoftheInternational CatholicOfficeforMotion pictures.Itwasreadatthe office'sstudycongresson "Movies,YouthandPublic Authorities,"heldinVienna frorhJuly10to14.

TheVatican'sthree-point programmecallsfor:

However,youthmustbe served,andthisconcerto. mercifullyamendedbymany hands,isagoodworkfora youthconcert:itisfullof goodtunes,ofhighlycolouredemotionand,aboveall, ofstruggle.

MORALSANDMAN,GeraldVann,O.P. Collins,FontanaBooks.

ProfessorLewishas condensedagreatdealof wisdomintothesixchaptersofTheFourLoves.

Itisovertwentyyears sincetheauthormadehis contributiontotheEuropean discussionofthetradition ofromanticlove.ToDenis deRougemont's"Amouret L'Occident"andBishop Nemers'"ErosandAgape," Lewisadded"TheAllegory ofLove,"tracingtheorigins ofallegoricalformsandthe amourcourtoistowardstheir unioninthemedieval Frenchpoem"Romandela Rose."Thencethetradition of-romanticlovepassedto English,viaChaucer,SpencerandShakespeare.Ithas influencedprofoundlyEuropeanmoreseversince. Lewis'studyhasbecomea standard,(asFatherD'Arcy callsit)amagisterialwork.

Fromoutofthisbackgroundofthinkingcomesa shortnewbookanalysing withalltheauthor'slucidity andcharmfourkindsof love:theloveofaffection, theloveoffriends,Eros,and charity.WithinEros,he distinguishesasVenus,the "carnaloranimallysexual element"fromEros,which superaddsthe"uniquely humanvariation."

Theauthorrecognisesthat allfourcanexistwithinan individualrelationship;indeed,ideally,withinmarriageallfourshouldcoexist.Overallisthedistinctionbetween"gift-love"and "need-love,"apleasingEnglishingofSt.Thomas'"amor benevolentiae"and"amor concupiscentiae"-theparallelsarenearlybutnotquite exact.

Eachkindoflovehasits characteristicrewards,and (withtheexceptionof charity)itscharacteristic dangers.Forinstance,affectionwhichcanexistbetween apparently incompatibie pairsofpersons,canbepossessive,dominating,apie,e ofdisguisedself-gratification.Friendshipcanviolate charitybysettingupan 'innerring,"agroupof superiors,fromwhichoutsidersareexcluded,and madetofeeltheirinferiority.Erosispotentially oestructivc:"Whowouldnot killthethingheloves." Each,temperedbycharity, canproducefruits,inforgetfulnessofself,enrichment,fulfilment.

Lewisparticularlyilluminatestherelationshipof friendship.Evenifonedid nothavetheevidenceofhis mitobigraphy,andofhis introductiontothememorial essaysonCharlesWilliams, thisbookwouldconvey thatLewishasgivenandreceivedmuchinfriendship. Itis,hesays,aneglected theme:"Icannotremember thatanypoemsince'In Memoriam,'oranynovelhas celebrateditinmodern times."Yetolderliterature isfullofthethemeOne

sentencewouldwellbe meditatedupon:"Loversare alwayspicturedfacetoface, immersedinthemselves; friendsarealwayspictured sidebyside,theireyes turnedoutuponthething theyarefriendsabout."If theyoungweretoconcentrateinitiallyuponfriendship,affectionandEros, temperedbycharity,could besafelylefttolookafter themselves.

Oneparticularlygoodremarkmightbeisolated."All mylife,"saysLewis,"a ludicrousandportentous solemnisationofsexhas beengoingon."Heprotests withjusticeandhumourat thisprocess,anddebunksa lotoftremulousnonsense thatafflictsmanypeople fromsongwriterstogeniuses likeD.H.Lawrence.happily elsewherecalled"love's engineer."Thisisabookto begratefulabout.

FontanaBooks,Iam happytosay,havere-issued Lewis'"Miracles"ina paperback-happybecause Ihaveneverhadtheheart toreplacebyoriginalcopy, baselystolen.Iamgladto haveitbyme,ifforno otherreason,forthelovely poembytheauthor,which isitsepigraph.Alsoforits excellenttreatmentof Hume's"EssayonMiracles" inChapter13.Onecuriosityinterminologyisinitiallysurprising:Lewis describestheIncarnationas theGreatMiracle.Inone sense,ofcourse,itis-the miracleparexcellence,the thingtobewonderedat,the supremeintrusionofthe DivineintoNature.Butin anothersenseitisnotthe sensiblesign,fromwhich thefaithisdeduced;itneeds lessermiraclestodeclareit.
