William R. Sn'yder of ,St. John's Lutheran ehurch, in a Reformation Sund~y sermon. The "most obvious" of signs *that the Holy Spirit continues to be the moving force in this cou'ncil," he said, is the' "issuance of invitations to representatives of various Protests'nt denominations."

standmg Amencan charactenstics, >:et on sever~l major points AmerIcan CatholIcs lack these characteristics and are, "not American enough," Phil Scharp_ er, New York publishing company editor, told the delegates at the 31st biennial session. Singling out the fields of work, race relations and urban responsibility, he made these points: Work-America is "the start and the center of the technological revolution'," and therefore "American Catholics ought to have developed a solid theol_ ogy of work." But "we haven't even made a beginning." Race-The "sin of racism, the heresy of racism" is so insidious
Short, Snappy, Substantial Sermons VATICAN CITY (N C) Brief but substantial, sermons on scriptural texts at Sunday Masses are favored
by Ecumenical Council fathers. A Council bulletin said the general opinion of the Council Fathers is that the scriptures "So desirous was the Pope to should have a greater part in !have representatives from the the Mass. It was suggested Russian Orthodox church that that the books of the scriptures sent a personal envoy to· could be divided over a cycle Moscow on the eve of the coun- of years to let preachers cover eil .to urge the Russian church the major truths of the faith in leaders to send observers," he commenting on the scriptural noted. texts of the masses. , 'The bulletin said it was stated "Proof that the Holy Spirit

at the Council: "It is necessary to emphasize the first part of the mass-the teaching part, or Mass of the Catechumens-in all its primitive value and to unite it closely with the second part, the sacrifice proper." ,It was also urged, the bulletin said, that Catholics should be better educated regarding the observance of holy days of obligation. The bulletin also reported that ca,ution was urged at the Council "in order to honor holy and venerable traditions." ,The bulletin added that many
Council Fathers urged that Catholics be taught "an awareness of a priesthood common to all faithful by reason 'of Baptism and Confirmation." 'It reported that although the Fathers said the dialogue Mass ought to be promoted, "it was noted that the faithful should not be deprived of those moments of recollection which favor personal piety." The bulletin said that at' their 11 th meeting the Council Fathers suggested that homilies-or sermons on scriptural texts-at Masses should "be brief but substantial."
in American Catholic institutions than did even the teaching of the Mystical Body,of Christ." Some positive views on the role played by Catholics in the modern world came from G Mennen Williams former Michi~ gan governor wh~ is now Assist_ ant Secretary of State for Airican affaiI:s. Williams, whose appearance was . unscheduled, said he wanted to convey his own impressionc of "the tremen_ ous good work" being done ;by the Catholic ,Church in Afriqa. He said that in the fields. of education and health the missionaries are performing gr~at service to the emerging peoples of Africa. The U. S. government. he said, "is certainly not going to do all-even the major partin expressing America's interest" in the peoples of the new African nations. He added that the organizations affiliated with the NCCW "have made a very real impact on the life of the (African) people." Scharpel"s criticism was echoed the following day at a panel, discussion on "fostering the-ecumenical spirit." Panelist Alba Zizzamia,.of the National Catholic Welfare Conference Office for United Nations Affairs, New York, said that when an organization like the NCCW makes III positive contribution to promote better international relations, it gets a lot of "nasty letters" from other Catholics. "Why are there so many ... isolationists among Catholics?" she asked.

Archbishop Thomas A; Boland of Newark, N.J., is general Chail'man of the project. Meanwhile, detailed discusstons of possible changes in the Mass, including reception of Holy Communion as both bread and wine and COD-celebration of the Mass, marked the 12th. general' session of the Ecumenical €ouncil. The 12th session was opened with a Maronite Rite Liturgy offered by B ish 0 p Joseph Khoury of Tyre, Lebanon. The language of the Mass is ancient Syriac, the last stage in the evolution of the Aramaic language spoken by Christ. It was the first time in nearly 20 centuries that the language of Jesus was heard in ceremonies in St. Peter's basilica. 'Among the innovations in the Mass suggested by the Fathers, the Council press bulletin reported, were: -Reducing prayers at the toot of the altar. -Changes concerning the sermon and the participation of the congregation in the action

By James M.

That man is Giovanni Roncalli-Pope John XXIII-who summoned the "successors of the Apostles" from theil." Sees throughout the world to consider the state of the Church in these troubled times. It is easy to forget the crucial role that Pope John has to play in the Council because he, has held himself aloof from its day-to-day deliberations, preferring to let the Fathers fune,tion, debate and

that the order of .the Mass be retained in, its substance, while admitting partial changes for the purpose of making the active participation of the faithful in the individual Rites 'easier. H It was emphasized that each change in the Mass as it noW' exists should be preceded by a thorQugh study of the individual prayers and ceremonies under discussion. ' The Council bulletin stated that "it was insisted that the Canon of. the Mass especially should remain intact because of its solemnity and for literary, liturgkal, historic and juridical reasons known to all." In regard to concelebration the joint celebration of a Mass by more than one priest-it was Hadvised that ... it be reserved to monasteries and to religious communities so that brotherly union and piety might be encouraged." As for reception of Holy Communion under the two species of bread and' wine, it was noted that "difficulties of a practical and hygienic order were cited in the matter of restoring the practice • . . However, reasons in favor of the practice were also indicated, but under the condition that the special cases in which it would be permitted would be well specified." The bulletin said that a "twofold preoccupation ran through all !!peeches of the Fathers: first, to render the celebration of the Mass more solemn and as holy as possible and, secondly, to favor understanding and participation of the faithful in the Sacrifice of Christ through the action of the priest and their own voluntary obla'tion."

Pa,pal Mission VATICAN CITY (He) - The visit of a papal mission to Turkey as guests of the Turkish governm-ent was marked with great courtesy and demonstrations of warm feeling for Pope .John, its members reported. The mission, headed by Archbishop Francesco Lardone, Apostolic Internuncio in Turkey, said the welcome of the Turkish officials was most cordial, including their reception by the Turkish President, Gen. Cemal Gursel, at his home in Ankara. Members of the mission were flown in a government plane 00 all parts of Turkey, where they visited the sites of earlier Ecumenical Councils. One day the group went to Ephesus and visited the impressive ruins of the' Church of ,St. Mary, where the third C Ecumenical Council took place. They also visited the nearby sandj.!ary monastery of Panaya Kapulu, which means Monastery of. the Virgin. The sanctuary' is a goal of pilgrimages both of. catholics and Moslems and is believed to be the site of the hoUse in which Our Lady lived in Ephesus whea visiting with St. John, who 18 also believed to have written his -Gospel in the same hou~.

In the lIturgical celebration of h . t· . t'" the C rIS Ian mys erles. Christian Life Father. Sloyan wrote that "nothing takes precedence over an anxious care to achie~e in students a genuine initiation into Christian life." Children and youth who are helped to' imitiate Christ, he said, will inevitably lose narrowness of view. "The full 'insertion' of free men into Chr.ist means that they come ~ live His life, that indeed more of Him is to seen in them than of themselves," he said. 'The American'nation will welcome this, he said. "The anguish of our times is that men are starved for love who have not yet in many, instances known justice.

Pope John Acts To Speed Work Of Co~~cil
. Canonization of Blessea peter Julian Eymard, founder of the Fathers of the Blessed Sacrament, has been Chlnounced for Sunday, Dec. 9. Known as the "Apostle of the Eucharist," the future saint was born in France in 1811, and was ordained in 1834. His early career as a curate in lVIonteynard is reminiscent of iba t of the Cure of Ars. His parish had been neglected since the, days of the French Revolution, but within two years he !had prevailed on all its members to return to the saera'ments. He then entered the Marist community. For -12 years Father Eymard remained a Marist, filling many hnpol·tant positions in the congregation exclusively devoted to the honor of the Blessed Sacrament. Two N~w Communities In 1856 the new congregation til. the Fathers of the Blessed sacrament was organized in Paris. In 1864 the priests were joined by the Servants of the Blessed Sacrament, a similar eongregation for women. Both groups devote themselves til» perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament exposed ~d ·to all forms of apostolate th'clt Inay further the Eucharistic ~ign of Christ on earth. For priests, Father E'ymaTd organized the Priests' Euchalistie, League, now numbering some 150,009 members pledged . 'to spend one hour a week be6»" the Blessed Sacrament. For the .laity there are three Eucharistic organizations which provide adorers and the material needs at public Exposition. Today the Fathers have 104 ~ouses in 28 countries. The congregation came to the United States in 1900 'clnd now has eight institutions in this country. Father Eymard was beatified In. 1925. The two miracles required for his canonization took place in 1948 in France, where III priest was cured of tubereulosis of the bone; and. ill 1949 in Australia where a woman who had suffered for years from heart trouble was healed.

general public. Our opposition to'the proposals stems from the fact that they are against public policy and public morality." Msgr. CaBey quoted an editoriar in the New World, newspaper 'of the Archdiocese of Chicago, which pointed out tha~ the American Government has traditionally looked upon the birth control issue as a religious matter. The editorial pointed out that former President Eisenhower had not initiated an,. foreign policy which would inelude birth control for this reason. In regard to the- claim that birth control services would be provided only for those who voluntarily asked for them, Msgr. Casey said: "The program would not work, would not achieve its objective unless the services ar suggested, encouraged and promoted by the state." "Moreover," he continued, "82 per cent of the prospective recipients concerned are either unmarried or not living with their legal spouse, and so you would de facto have the state with public tax funds furnishing contraceptives to u n mar r i e d women and thereby abetting, encouraging, facilitating, sponsoring and even subsidizing fornicatIOn and adultery."
Ecumenical Council will end Dec. 8' with a solemn ceremony in St. Peter's basilica. The Pope's announcement was read on Tuesday at the close of the 13th general meeting of the Council. During the meeting the discussion of the second of eight chapters of proposals on the liturgy was concluded by a standing vote of the 2,211 Council Fathers present. The meeting then took up chapter three of the liturgy proposals dealing with the sacraments and sacramentaIs. Archbishop Per i c 1 e FeUd, Council general secretary, in an effort to spe~d discussions, instructed Council Fathers to pre_ sent along with requests to speak a summary of whlllt they , intend to say. This is seen as a way to give the general secre~ariat an opportunity of advising speakers that what they want to say is being covered by another speaker. Presidential Powers Archbishop Felici also announced that Pope John has given the presidency of the Council the right to propose termination' of discussion of 'a specific point if it judges that the matter being discussed has been dealt with sufficiently. The Pope's instructions require that the Council's president of the day put the proposal to end discussions to a vote of the Fathers, asking those in favor to stand and those opposed to remain seated. Following this announcement, Cardinal Tappouni, president at the 13th meeting, proposed to end discussion of the second chapter of the liturgical proposals. The vote was affirmative.

~@~Wo . [Q)O~®[(1fOOl)@ ~®@@DQl)® By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy The' convening of the Second Vatican Council is presumably the reason for the appearance just now of a number of books about the Holy See, the Vatican, and Rome. With the attention of the world focussed there, interest in the headquarters But Twain is amusinK when of the ·Church Universal is he complains of the omnipresgeneral and acute. People ence of work done by Michelwho know something of the angelo and the incessant invoksubject are coming forward to satisfy this interest with information and observation which they have . accumulated over the years.We would begin, however, with one of a somewhat dif-· ferent type. It is Vatican impressions, edited by Father Francis J. Sweeney, S.J. (Sheed and Ward. $5.95). The editor tells us "I have attempted to assemble here a ·bookful of descriptive reading on the Popes, something on their personalities and public occasions, but more on the climate of· custom and folkway in which the papal monarchy has flourished since the first century." H~ wants to convey "the Romanitas of the Church of Christ." 'Go to Rome!' "Ecco Roma" is the title of the first section. Early in it there is an excerpt from a letter written by Lord Acton to Mrs. Humphrey Ward. "Go to Rome! Never mind the journeys. Go! You will have three days there, you say? ... If you had only an afternoon in Rome it would be worth while. But three days ... Life is not the same afterward." This puts very weH the marvelous effect of_ even a sip of Rome. Others represented jn this anthology expatiate on various features of the city. But it is St. Peter's which gets the most attention. F. Marion Crawford's description of the basilica, and its 'mpact on the viewer, is as graphic and affecting as the day it was written. Here is prose which has not staled with the passing decades. Thus, in suggesting the impression when one steps through the doorway, Crawford wrote, "A hushed, half rhythmic sound, .as of a world breathing in its sleep, makes the silence alive. The light is not dim or ineffectual, but very soft and high, and it is as rich as floating gold dust in the far distance, and in the apse , an eighth of a mile from the door. There is a blue arid hazy atmospheric distance, as painters call it, up in the lantern of the cupola, a twelfth of a mile above the pavemen~." Many otbers of the famed authors upon whom Father Sweeney draws have something to say· of this most celebrated and visited of churches. Henry James, for example, maintained that the beauty of the buQding is a "general beauty" and that the specific details, when one comes to study them individually, "are often poor and sometim·es ridiculous." Twain's Impressions Mark Twain, as one might have expected, didn't think much of the place; Or was he merely . trying to be funny Thus, the stupendous Bernini baldachin over the papal altar he saw as "a great bronze pyramidal frame-work like that which upholds a mosquito bar. It only looked like a considerably magnified bedstead~noth ing more."

This volume reminds us that the leading American men of letters of the nineteenth century, though Protestants all, sojourned in Rome and had their say about it. Samuel F. B.

Respect for Human Raee Of our twentieth century authors here called upon to speak their pieces, Booth Tarkington pays a memorable tribute to St. Pius X, whom he observed giving one of his homely Sunday morning sermons to a throng gathered in a Vatican courtyard; H. L. Mencken is characteristic_ ally outrageous in. telling of sneaking in to an audience which the same pontiff was giving to a group of German pilgrims; and Patricia Collinge does a delightful account of a Protestant couple's reaction to an audience with pius XII. Chesterton writes of Pius XI and that pope's "very strong antagonism to the contempt for the aboriginal races and a gigantic -faith in the fraternity of· all tribes in the light of the Faith." Eleanor Clark observes of Pius XII, " the pope's little speech of welcome addressed· to each group by name and repeated" in all the languages he could pronounce, contained not a word of ;lnything but affection and. respect for the whole human race." Liveliness of Mind There are passages. from Michel Montaigne which _4eal with that stylist's .meeting with Gregory XIII, "a very fine old man, of medium height, and upright, with a face full of majesty, and a long white beard." The approximately 50 writers, of various .period, tongues, and attitUdes, brought together between the hospitable covers of Father Sweeney's· book have in common a liveliness of mind and of expression which makes these pages easy and diverting reading.

Several papers which dealt· with the possibilities of earlier American action against the Soviet arming of Cuba said the President could not morally take the grave risk of war until he had absolute proof that offensive weapons were in Cuba.

Unseen Presence of Pope John Acts as Constant Council Guide Continued fIrom Page One examine in an atmosphere of almost complete freedom. The only direct action the Holy Father has taken since the solemn opening of the Council last month has been the appointment of nine members of each of the 10 commissions of the Council and· the smoothing over of differences, always in the most paternal way. But even if the Holy Father is .not presevt physically at the daily m~etings of the Council, be is there in spirit. No'ne of, approximately 17 American bishops contacted during the Council faUed to mention this lInseen, but ce~inly fully sensed, "presence" of the Pope. And very few of them have not had stories to tell to illustrate the fatherly but dedicated attitude of the Holy Father. One bishop mentioned that he had talked to one of the Swiss Guards ,at one of the earlier I eongregations of the Council. The guard told the Prelate that he had been on duty in the Pon_ ,tiff's gardens one afternoon a few days before the Council opened. ' "His Holiness was walking up and down near the guarc;l, showing considerable agitation and worry," the bisJ,op recalled. "'The guard told me that the Hoy Father came up to him, at last, and said: "'You know, if I can only get f;he Council opened and started ,0n its way, I'll be content to leave its closing to my successor,"" On the day of the solemn open_ ing of the Council, the Holy ]Father displayed the same symp~ms of concern. His face was Q bit drawn, his movements slow and, at times, uncertain. But his demeanor was completely altered when, at long last, the czeremony was over. He virtually skipped down from his throne on the Confessional Altar and made his way lightly am: joy<Dusly up ~he main aisle to the \point where the sedia gestatoria (portable throne) awaited him. His face was one big, angelic Dmile and his eyes were shiny with tears and happiness. As many bishops pointed out, l:t was as if a heavy burden had 'been lifted from his shoulders. His years of anticipation, anxtety and long and tedious planning were over; his Council was tinder way at last. When he received the representatives of the world's newsl1lapers, magazines, radio and television stations, he was remarkably alert and relaxed, par_ ticularly for a man of his age Qnd the heavy burdens he carIl'ies. He had the appearance of al man twenty years his junior. The Sistine chapel was rocked by ever-increasing waves of applause and cries of ''ll Papa," and he received the tribute with warm appreciation, displaying. as he ,always does, his tremendous and deeply sincere love for aU men, regardless of -their station in life. The many Protestant newsmen at the audience were as deeply moved as their Catholic brethren. Another bishop described his first meeting ,with the Holy Father. He had expected, he relate,d, to find the Pope waiting for him at his large desk at the far end of the library the Pontiffs use. "Instead, as I walked up that long hall to the library," the bishop related, "I noticed a beaming fsee with the distinctive white zuchetto hovering over it, peering around the corner of the doorway. "Sure enough, it was the Pope. He greeted me at the door, took me around his office, even showing me the buzzer with which he summons his secretary. Then he ~ad me sit down beside him and we talked about the problems iIUld developments in my diocese. "He asked me about my priests, the people and the children in the diocese. In short, he rulked me about these things that any pastor throughout the world
is most concerned with and feels so strongly a'bout." This overriding concern of the Holy Father that he be a "good shepherd" to his people has made him, in only four years, one of the most deeply loved Popes in Italy in the last century. His predecessor, Pope Pius xn, was a saintly man, a magnificent theologian, philosopher and moralist. There is no doubt of his goodriess and kindness, but he did not have the "common touch" that Pope John daily displays.
Aa. Italian, originalq- from Genoa but working now in Rome, mentioned this pOint in conversation about the council one day. "'Pope Pius was a good 'man
and a wonderful Pope," he said, before the solemn opening of the "but when he spoke to us, we Council, the Pope addressed could not understand him. When more than 100,000 persons who Pope John speaks, everyone had marched in a torchlight proknows what he is saying. And cession. he talks to us about those things It had been cloudy and rainy, we know about and. that we live but the skies had cleared shortly with from day to day." When there is some function before the procession began. In his address to the people, the at the Vatican, in which Pope Pope alluded to this. John is scheduled to speak, even Trastevere-where the bulk of "Tomorrow," he said, "we are the COmmunist population of opening a great Council with all Rome lives - is emptied of of the bishops of the world gath_ people. The huge piazza in front ered here. And you see," he of St. Peter's basilica is filled continued, pointing to the bright long before the windows of the ord above the great dove of the papal apartments are opened basilica, "even the Moon has and the Pope appears. come out to see this beautiful The Pope's commentS are not ,procession.

On the night to your homes tonight, to em-
brace your children and to tell them that the Holy Father embraces them, too." This humble, totally human approach of the Holy Father has done more to reduce the extent of anti-clericalisrr in Italy than any other effort undertaken with this result in mind. And, best of all, this is not a deliberate policy. It is simply 'Pope John's personality and nature. If the Council is taking considerable longer in its business than many persons expected, this has had no appreciable effect upon Pope John. In fact, at It general audience he granted It week after the solemn opening" he remarked: "This is no matter. If we go slowly now, it is so that \1l(e call make more progress later."

"All Human Conflict ..." One of the hardest things in the world to combat· is' ·l~thargy. It is a difficult thing toco,nvince men and women of sincerity' that there is a situa:tion that mQst be. corrected, that can 'be corrected, that looks to the~. forcorrective steps. All too many people do not see evil,' 6r.a~e · unwilling' to look upon it; or refuse to' pay the personal price. that correcting it .would, demand. of 't~em, ·or. would · rather let someOne else take the initiat~ve. . . ', 'The Church in Chile h~ been trying' for a lo~g, time to help soive the criti~a~. political· and economic. problems , of the country and to· better the lot of' the common man. It is a classic example of the Church's seeing. clearly ,w~at is wrong and trying, against almostoverwhelmjilg .difficulties and in the face 'of monumental' lethargy, to . ge.t 'something done. One-third of that country's people lack decent'homes; the few have much and the many have little,; gross soci:al inequalities exist. Lip service ·only is, given to Christianity by those who could and should do something to bring about ·a change. .' . And why have the Bishops of qhile pointed out in detail the areas that a vigorous Christian approach could remedy? Because, in the phrase used by Cardinal ~anning to BeBoc, "all human conflict is ultimately theological" And the Church, the Mystical Body of Christ, must show the compassion of Christ to th~ poor and the underprivileged, uplifting the downtrodden, helping them save their souls through their bodies by bettering the conditions ill which they work and live. The vigorous Cardinal Silva Enrique, is heading the Church's drive to bring about drastic social reforms., This' is one more instance of the Church's leaders seeing evil and trying to awaken men to conditions, around them. But the leaders depend upon the good will of the laity, the cooperation of men who can bring about the changes needed. The Bishops of Chile and every country need men 'willing to be Christian, to act like Christ. Too many Christians are Christian only in the name and not in the act.

CINCINNATI (NC) - More good neighbors would mean fewer juvenile delinquents, according to Msgr. Nicholas H. Wegner, director of Boys Town. In an interview here 'the Omaha prelate said many families could be held together if neighbors would pitch in and help when they're most needed. "Sometimes it's a debt that's plaguing the father or the lack of a job-and as a result the mother goes Olilt to work an.1 toe children are neglected," Msgr. Wegner noted. Take Initiative Neighbors possessing a genuinely Christian attitude would take the initiative in trying to help the family, he said. "It's the second greatest commandment," he added, "and if it isn't the current custom to act like tbis, then it's time we turned against the current custom and did things as Christ would want us to." .Msgr. Wegner, who succeeded the late Father Edward J. Flanagan as head of the famed home for boys, was in Cincinnati to speak at the annual dinner oZ the Hamilton County JuveniIe Court Advisory Board. . At the dinner Msgr. Wegner emphasized that "s boy can come from the wealthiest of homes and still be underprivileged."

Attitude Toward. Liturgy Change 'Wide Open'

Council Fathers
Have A Busy,
VATICAN CITY (NC) An Am e ric a n archbishop says the Ecumenical Councils attitude toward liturgi.
Schedule ROME (NC) - Bishops from the United States and from other countries, taking part in the Second Vatican
cal reform is "wide open." "Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan' of Atlanta, an elected member' of the Council's commission on the sacred liturgy, told English";', speaking reporters, covering the: ,Council that "there have been" very few extremists in the de-, bate. Everyone of the'speakers' has conceded the merits of the other side." , He denied reports in European newspapers that the U. S. bishops: 'are not interested "in the liturgy. ' , : Neither are the American prel- . ates adopting a unified position' " in the dabate on the liturgy, he: added. ' Asked how the 'Council Fath- . ers' as a whole seem to feel about proposed changes'in the liturgy,.-he replied: "The words 'wide open' would describe it best." He said he had been amused, to hear bishops speaking in ele- : gant Ciceronian Latin to defend' the use of the vernacular in the . liturgy. He' also reported that the'lO-minute limit on speeches, which Council regulations ask, , the fathers to observe if possible, , was largely ignored. But, he remarked with a smile, ,"a certain restraint is imposed " ,on speakers by the expressions ,on everybody else's face." He continued: "Occasionally, a Council Father, whQ is scheduled to speak will get up and say: "lam dicta sunt .. meaning t~at what he had to s;y has already been said. There is then a' feeling of applause in the Council even if nobody actually applauds."
Ecumenical Council, follow a full schedule. And, it is gettingfuller. With the Council sessions held daily from 9 a. m. to l, p. m., it means that each Council Father must rise early, say mass early, breakfast and depart early for St. Peter's basilica, where the meetings of the Council begin promptly at 9. For the bishops who are members of the various commissions of the Council there are other conferences late in the afternoon and early evening. For <111 the, bishops' it means that afternoons and evenings must be given to individual, study and private consultations, discussions with various experts and advisors to prepare for the solid four-hour Council sessions. ' Profiting by the unusual advantages offered by the spacious new ' North American College, many of the American cardinals and bishops as well as other Eng~'ish-sp,eaking prelates are making it a study center. The college, atop the Janiculum Hill, is very conveniently close to St. Peter's basilica. It is almost literally under the shadow of St. Peter's. More importantly, the college has an excellent library, well equipped with the' reference works that the Councill.Fathers need. The filing system, accommodated to the English-speaking' students, is particularly convenient. Not least of the advantages of the library is its up-todate lighting system.

Ascertain Creed Of Non-Catholic LONDON (NC) -.:... Catholics can best help arid know non-Catholics if they take, the trouble to find. out what they believe and why they believe it Archbishop John Heenan of Liverpool said here. Archbishop Heenan, chairman of the English Hierarchy's Unity Committee, was summing up a series of articles in the Universe, national Catholic newspaper, in which leading spokesmen of the major non-Catholic Christian' churches explained their beliefs and attitude towards unity. Archbishop Heenan said in the weekly: . "There can be no doubt that some Catholics regard the whole question of Christian unity with the utmost reserve. They fea~ that other and more simple Catholics may be misled by all this talk of coming closer together. Lacking a deep an<~ sound knowledge of the Faith they may be tempted to imagine that differences of religious' conviction no longer matter. "This coming together of Christians of every kind is in the first place an exercise of charity. It is also the result of improved education. "The stage we have now reached on the road to Christian unity is much more like a halfway house than the end of 8 journey. We have re.ached a stage where ~e can discuss our differences in charity and peace.' The importance of' this' phase is that we are able both to spread the knowledge of Catholic truth and to correct the false notions we ourselves may have about the bel,iefs of non-Catholics •••N
pass. He withdraws once the two priests have gone inside. Hardly has the session come to a close when he makes his appearance again. The two priests walk up to him and he goes along with them, with a grim face. Never, even for a moment, does he take his eyes off. them. All day long he is there: the long arm of Moscow. The two official observers of the Russian Orthodox Church at the Council are Archpriest Vitali Borovoy a member of the faculty. of th~ Orthodox seminary at Leningrad, now delegate of his church to the World Council of Churches, and. Archiman~ drite Vladimir Kotliarov, deputy chief of the Russian Orthodox . mission in Jerusalem. Both live at a hotel together with their "shadow" where other non-Catholic observers of the Council also are quartered. But' they do not mingle freely. At meal time they have' their own table. They remain apart from other observers. When there are official receptions, they attend, but when they are ovcr, they go their own' way, with the "shadow" always at their' heels.. The sympathies of almost 'everybody is with these two priests, who converse with those ,who don't speak Russian in a. halting English. Everybody is aware of the delicacy of their 'position. Nobody wishes to embarrass them. Therefore no questions are asked which they would be unable, or unwilling' to answer.. For the "shadow" always is there. The shadow of . ,Moscow.
Poles Hold Prayer Vigils For ·Council, V A TIC A N CITY (NC)Prayer vigils have joined all the people of Poland with the work of the Ecumenical Council, Stefan Cardinal Wyszynski, Pri,;. mate of Poland, has declared. Cardinal Wyszynski said in an article in the Vatican City daily, L'Osservatore Romano: "Our eyes look toward Rome, a prayer . on the lips, 'while our serene. soul' places all its trust in the head" of 'the Church and in the council fathers." The 'Cardinal noted that "not all the Polish Bishops have been able :to take part in the council. Out of 65, only 17 have arrived in Rome so far. We hope that others will yet arrive."

emphasize a deeper appreciation of liturgical values," an Amer'jcan prelate said here. "The goal of tbe liturgical movement in the U.S. is to I{et Catholics to rethink their whole life of worship," Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan of Atlanta told a press conference, The al"chbishop is a member of the Ecumenical Council's Commission on the Sacred Liturgy. Archbishop Hallinan, who spoke on the status of the liturgical movement in the U. S., said the aim of the U. S. bishops is to help their people to understand better "that the mass and the sacraments are pUblic, social and partake of the community." He said this understanding would serve as an effective curb to what he called "the excessive individualism of our modern society." Asked if the use of the vernacular would promote this understanding, the archbishop replied: "I believe a wider use of the vernacular in the early Pdl"t of the mass will make for better participation of the people and will better prepare them for the Sacrifice that follows." He added that there is also room for more use of the vernacular in rites connected witb the administration of sacraments.

school pupils to ride tax-paid school buses from which they were removed earlier. Unable to reach a decision in public session, the board after retiring to a closed meeting, an nounced the children will be accommodated by changing soma pick-up points. The Maryland decision appar_ ently settled a dispute which resulted in the halting of a bus ie mid-October by a father of three Catholic school pupils who put his children aboard the vehicle. The bus driver refused to carry the youngsters, saying he lacked authority to do so. Hc emptiea the bus of its passengers-13 in all-and drove tho vehicle off to its parking lot. G
'Excess Baggage' The children are pupils of Sl Mary's grade school in Upper Marlboro. Last year they rode on tax-paid buses from outlying regions to a public grade schooR near their own. But in October, the public school was closed and the grade school bus route discontinued. Parents of the Catholic school children affected by the change asked permission to put their youngsters on a bus heading for a public high school in Upper Marlboro. When their request was unanswered, a father, acting for the parents' group, put his children aboard the bus. At the board meeting, Jerrold' W. Powers, attorney for Cathoiie parents, said the St. Mary'u pupils couid not be relegated to the status of "excess baoggage." Temporary Impasse Eugene R. O'Brien, boanll member, then presenteda. meUon that the bus service bo granted. When it failed for lack, of a seconding motion, he intro..路 duced another motion to deny the bus rides. This too failed f62' lack of a second. At this impasse, Paul IifL Nussbaum, board attorney, reo. quested the closed session. County buses already transport, between 200 and 400 Cath~ olic school pupils daily who ride along established routes to the public school nearest theilr own school.

The causes to' be voted on are those of Blesseds Vincent Pallotti, Peter Julla'n Eymard, Antonio Pucci and Francesco Maria' of Camporosso. A consistory is a formal preliminary to. canonization. The Pope will, deliver an address. Following this, Arcadio Cardinal Larraona, C.M.F., Prefect of the Sacred Congregation of Rites, will read a report on the lives, virtues and miracles of the four blesseds. Then, the prelates will give their opinions on the causes.

The congregation he founded now numbers more than 2,200 members.

Chaplain Praises Private Schools GRAND RAPIDS (NC) - The Chief of Chaplains of the U.S.' Navy said here that the contributions made by private higher education in the U.S. are the strength of the state. Msgr. (Rear Adm.) George A. Rosse also said that youth in the U.S. must be taught that they have a dual responsibility: to God and to the peoples of the world. He spoke at a civic dinner held in honor of Aquinas College's 40th anniversary. The Monsignor stated that Catholic higher education does not aim at having two independent systems, intellectual and religious, but seeks to develop a Catholic attitude toward life as a whole. ' He also said: "We must teach our young people to believe in the responsibility of one to another; their responsibility to God; to the peoples of the world. Teach them to believe in themselves, to believe in their worth as human beings, to believe in their place in leading the world out of the darkness of oppression."

Asks Nation Pray On Veterans Day WASHINGTON (NC) - The assistant director of the Veterans Administration chaplain service has urged that Veterans Day, November 11, be a day of prayer throughout the nation. Msgr. Joseph W. Hartman said in a special message: "There are many who still carry theh' scars of service in their maimed bodies. For these we must not only give thanks but also our prayers and support. We pray that all those who have served us in our need receive from a merciful God that eternal reward which alone can satisfy the heart of man ... We pray that we may continue to lead the whole world toward true peace, the peace of justice :llor all mankiu'-

quip, "it will be a real demonstration of divine intervention." Somehow, they seem to be crashing the Traffic Wall with remarkable swiftness. Not SpcctacuBaJi'
Their speed through the Coun_ cil agenda, however, is not quite so spectacular. To date the Council Fathers have covered only about 3% of the total agenda, and even this small section has yet to be voted on, sent to the Committee for decreedrafting, and .finally approved. I.f the Council continues at its present pace, there is no telling how long it will last. There is the distinct possibility, of course, that not all the subjects proposed by the Preparatory Commissions will be discussed during the Second Vatican Council. The opinion is expressed that there will simply not be enough time to treat all the questions advanced in the schema. A more weighty objection comes from the theologians, many of whom hold that there bas not been enough research and development to some of the topics on the agenda, and that it would be better to pass over these for the present, thereby giving them a chanee to fully evolve. Distinct Blessing But if some observers are getting restless with the Council's slow progress, others are viewing it" as a distinct blessing. This latter group reasons thus: each bishop has the right to speak for ten minutes on any issue before the Council;' the exercise of this right is at present leading to a great repetition of ideas; but the hidden advantage is that the bishops are gradually becoming aware of how they stand as individuals and as nations on their commitment to the up-dating of the Church that Pope John has called for. Once the air has been cleared (and the liturgy is an admira'ble agent for doing this), perhaps the future discussions . can be streamlined and the work pushed forward at a faster pace. It comes as no surprise to Catholics that there are many points of view as to how this modernization of the Church should be achieved. The Council is, after all, ecumenical; it repre_ cents the universal church, and the needs of the whole church are many and varied. Because of their backgrounds and local conditions, some bishops feel that they should not move too far or too fast in this work of "renewing the Church." Others, reflecting their local situation and perhaps with an eye to the needs of the Church in the decodes ahead, are calling for farll'caching reforms. Here to Learn It would be wrong at this llhge of the Council, however, to consider the positions of the bishops as fixed and unchangeable. Nothing could be farther from the truth! For the bishops lill"e here to learn as well as to legislate. A recent editorial in The Anchor gave the best analysis of the present picture that has anywhere appeared in print "All these various differences," the editorial commented, "will become more manifest as the Council progresses. This is precisely a purpose of the Council and should not be cause for concern. What better way to acquaint all the bishops of the world with the problems of all than to bring all together in freedom of discussion and sympathetic concern for one' another's challenges?" Hans Kung Father Hans Kung, the renowned German theologian, enlarged upon this theme during a lecture to the American gradu_ ate students in Rome. "Even if this first session should produce few results," Father Kung said, "and even if the Council itsel.f should not achieve the high hopes we have for it-nevertheless much shall still be accomplished. The bishops shall return to their dioceses awake to the

NC Photo. needs of the universal Church. We have moved so far in the four years since the Council .has been convoked that the Church can never be the same again." A telling example of their "sympathetic concern for one another's challenges" is the frequent contact between small groups of bishops from different nations, and the regular invitations to the scholarly experts to discuss current problems. Liturgical experts such as : dthers Jungmann, Diekmann, and McManus are keeping a busy schedule these days. The work of the Council is, of course, wrapped in official secrecy, and. one can only guess at the real progress being made. Time will give the answer. And from all indications, it is an answer worth waiting for.

Fall RiverCYO Plans,Second' Annual Hockey Night
The Fan River CYO willspon80r its second annual Hockey Night at the Rhode Island Auditorium on Friday, Nov. 16. The game scheduled for 8 o'clock will pit the Cleveland Barons against the Rhode Island Roos. Pre-game interest has indicated that last year's attendance of more than 800 members of the CYO will be surpassed. Cleveland, led by player-coach Fred Glover, has always played a strong body-checking game that results in a closely fought contest. Glover, the Eddie Shore of the American League, holds the all-time record in professional hockey for time spent in the penalty box. Some sports writers have claimed he should pay rent, his occupancy of the bad boy's box has been so frequent and long. The Reds have strengthened this years sextet with the addition of some seasoned skaters but the chief interest will be centered on their acrobatic goalie, Gil Mayer, the. backchecking of ex-Bruin star" Fernie Fiaman and exciting play of Jimmy Bartlett. Of special interest to all is the addition of Jack McGeough, who captained the Providence College team last year. Tickets for the game may be obtained by call i n g Father Moriarty at Os. 3-2833 or at St. Mary's Rectory, Second St., Fall River. All prices have been reduced for the benefit of the

Canadian Legislator Says Divorce • u.S. IRotten l Procedure In OTTAWA (NCI-In the United States' administration of justice there is nothing 8S "rotten" as its divorce procedure, a member of Parliament charged in the House of Commons here. The remark came from Bernard Dumont, MP for Belle;. chasse, Que., who succeeded in talking down a bill which would . have g i v e n the Exchequer Court of Canada jurisdiction over divorce 'applications made in Newfou'ndland and Quebec provinces. , "We in the Catholic province of Quebec consider divorce a rotten fruit that can only spoil everything with which it COlnes in contact," Dumont asserted. "It is like trying to make theft legaI." . ' Dumont charged that "divorce recognized by law is legali~ed adultery." He said a divorce law allows a man "to steal another man's wife." One a Minute "In two reform schools in the United States, almost threefourths of the children there come from homes broken up by
as
divorce," he said. "In the administration of justice in the United states, at the present time, there is nothing as rotten as this divorce procedure." Dumont said in the U. S. "a divorce is granted every minute'." He added' it is a situation where a woman "can change husbands as often as one can charige c1o~hes." The 'divorce legislation was advocated by Arnold, Peters, an MP from Temiskaming. All Canadian provinces, except Quebec and Newfoundland, have their., own divorce· courts. Divorce matters from ,Quebec and Newfoundland must be dealt with by. Parliament. Peters has been trying for several years teo set up the Exchequer Court. plan to rid Parliament of divorce matters in'the two provinces. The efforts of Dumont contributed to a "read out" of the bill. The measure now reverts to the bottom of the list of legislation. It is not likely to be called up again at the present session.
Franciscan Tertiaries Successful of Vocati()ns In Promotion , DETROIT (NC) - The COP's of Pittsburgh were ~are~Iy represented at the ninth qumquennial Congress of the Third Ord~r of St. Francis here, but th.elr work drew widespread attention among the 2,500 delegates. The ''COP's'' are the "Crusaders of the Poverello." This unusual group of Franciscan tertiaries numbers more than 100 members. Their ages range from 14 to 30 years. Formed four years ago, the Crusaders' apostolate is to foster vocations to the priesthood and other religious lives. According to one of the COP spokesmen here, Sheila Carney, "its most potent recommendation is the fact that it has channeled at least 200 vocations during its

four years." . This result, she explained, grew out of the group itself and the character of its activity. In attempting to put into practice the Third Order rule which includes sanctifying oneself and one's neighbor, COP felt that it could best achieve that aim by encoura'ging and promoting the religious life. . The group is designed to bridge the gap between the high school and the adult world-a gap, Miss Carney said, which is regarded by many as very wide because of the disparity of ages, tastes, social life, choice of apostolic 'Work and the reluctance of young people to fraternize with adults.

Bill, Butler 01 North Dartmouth:
Stars With· Ne'" Bedford Tech Prolific'Scorer Wins Accolades of Opposing Rooters By
Lynn Kennedy Fred Clark, veteran area college and professional soccer official, calls him the best collegiate hooter in New England. His teammates think he's the greatest. Rival college coaches run out of accolades de_ scribing him. He's Bill Butler, probably the nation's most prolific college shotmaker who does his scoring for New Bedford Tech. A senior from North Dartmouth, Bu'tler has scored Close to 80 goals in his four years of play at Tech, and he still has two tilts to go, one tomorrow against New Haven College and another next week against New England College of Henniker, N. H. for the Colonial Conference championship. So far this season, Butler has 24 markers in 11 con_ tests, a 2.18, goals per game average. .

By Bill's own admission, it was Coach Mulvey who started him on his way to stardom, Plenty of local amateur competition following his days at Yoke helped Butler mature, but it was a 2-year army hitch in Germany that led to his development as a goal-getter. Bill was playing with an army post outfit near Wiesbaden, when his coach, a German, invited him to play with the First Football Clilb of Wiesbaden, a top-notch civilian team.

ord this season, the only loss last Saturday to Howard, 3-1. Butler, incidentally, rammed home his 24th in that game, a hard, high 20-footer that the enemy goalkeeper never had a chance on. Butler is not a one man team, however. He's the first to admit that teammates like Johnny Pacheco, Ronnie Ponte, John Trznadel, Lionel Bourassa, and Bob Parker give him plenty of help. They all have tremendous experience, Pacheco and Ponte particularly are adept at setting up scoring situations. Butler belie"ves ball control is the good soccer player's "must." That, he admits, is the chief reason for his own success, and comes only with diligent prac... _ tice. He is quick to credit forme2' Olympic .soccer star, Manny Martin of Fall River with n special assist in that department, They play together on the Madeira Soccer Club of New Bedford.

Butler of 56 ·Eiswick Street, North Dartmouth, and a Communicant of St. George's Churc~ in Westpjort, Bill is presently majoring in textile technology. He hopes to enter the textile business, but wants to stay as close to home as possible. As far as soccer is concerned, the slightly-built booter hopes to continue playing. He says he has no professional aspirations right now, this despite a strong belief he could make the grade as a pro (Clark said: I think he could gCD in professional ball). "I'd like to coach the game, though," Butler advanced. Of course, he's quite serioull about Rosemary Williams '00 Fairhaven, the' girl he plans to marry next Summer. Asked whether she is a soccer fan, Bill said: "She is now. but shc wasn't when I met her." Right now, Bill's main interClJt is keeping his marks up (they are good) and winning a fou.rUt successive Colonial Conference title and pcrhaps getting aRl NAIA berth 'and another shot at the national championship. That's been bothering him since Tech bowed out in the '59 play. I~ would be a fitting finale to an illustrious career. 0In the meantlme, he's a strollllJ candidate for NAIA All American honors. By everyone's admission-those who have seen him play and those he's playerl against-Butler, an uncanny shot and expert dribbler with supew moves, has proved his claim.
