during the council, and after
the council.
1T WAS established as a
preparatory body on June 5,
1860, with the motu pro-
prio "Superno Del nutu" of
Pope John, which instituted
at the same time AL the
other preparatory commits
sions and Secretariats. 1t was
classified as a secretariat
and not as a commission be-
cause of the newness of its
material and because it did
not correspond, as in h
case of the commissioners, to
one of the existing congre-
cations in the Church's CEN
trail administration.
Referring to the secretar-
lat in "Superno Del nutu,"
the Pope said:
"As a token of Our affec-
ton and good will towards
those who bear the name of
Christian but are separated
from this Apostolic See, to
enable them to follow the
work of the council and to
find more easily the path by
which they may arrive at
that unity for which Jesus
Christ prayed so ardently to
his heavenly Father. We are
establishing a special 'advis-
DRY board or secretariat -"
The secretariat was there
fore given a double purpose.
It's immediate purpose was
to inform non-C Catholic Chris
tians on the work of the flu
ture council; to receive their
wishes and suggestions relat-
ing to the council, to weigh
them and, if need be, to pass
them on to other commits
Sions.

general purpose is to aid

AdUOcate social reform -.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil - The greed of the wealthy
classes in Brazil is the equivalent of stealing and gives the
communists their best ammunition in this country, BraziIs
Bishops have declared in a joint pastoral letter.
In their strongly-Worded message, the Bishops also
pointed to communist infiltration in Brazilian trade unions.
They urged Catholics to vote in the October elections for
deputies who will work toward social reforms.
Shortly after the pastoral was published, shots were
fired into the summer residence of Jaime Cardinal de Bar
rs Camara, Archbishop of Rio de Janeiro. The residence
was empty at the time. The persons involved in the shoot
ing were not apprehended.

Interior renewal of Church
will be Councils major aim

The secretariat, strictly
speaking, is a preparatory
body, but it is commonly ac-
copied that it will develop
into something more than
this. It has been definitely
remarked by Cardinal Bea
himself that it will continue
to function beyond the pre-
paratory phase and will
operate during the council
as a kind of clearing house"
and liasion between the nom
Catholic observers and The
council Fathers.
No one can say definitely
that the secretariat will con-
tinue to function after t h e
council. This is a decision
which must be made by the
Pope or by the council Fa-
theirs and the Pope togeth-
er-more probably the for
mer. Everything indicates,
however, that such a deci-
sion will certainly be made.
WHEN THE Pontiff spoke
to the priests of Bologna on
February 20, 1860, he said:
"Once we have established,
agreed upon and set forth
the best solutions Ito h
Church's needs, includ ! n e
t h e new demands Of h G
times, we shall be able to
indicate to the separated
brothers the sure road of
that unity to which they al
SO aspire"
And when Cardinal B e a,
during the press conference
granted to the Foreign Press
Club in Rome April Is, 1862,
was asked whether the sec
retariat would continue its
activity after the council, he
answered:
This evidently depends
upon the results of the coun-
Gil. If one may judge from
the developments
have transpired in the secre-
tariat's past two years of
existence, it would seem
necessary that the work
would increase, and even
greatly, but the actual de-
cisions will depend upon the
results of the council"
To understand the secre-
tariat fully, then, one should
regard it in its three phases:
, preparatory to the council,
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1962-07-27

but only the reading and for
NAL voting upon theses that
have already been discussed
and approved.
They will be able to at
tend also tn plenary ses-
sions, the so-called General
Congregations of the Council
Fathers, that is, of the cardi-
nails and bishops, in which
the theses which have al
ready been examined by the
various commissions of the
council will be discussed.
Normally they will not h
able to assist at the sessions
of I h e commissions t h e m
selves, although there m a
be some exceptional instan-
ces. However, they will be
informed on these sessions
by means of the Secretariat
for Christian Unity which
may even invite the council
Fathers themselves to clarity
certain matters u n d G con-
sideration."
In practice, the observers
might assemble at a given
time and place during the
days of the council where
they would be given an ex-
PLANTATION of the things they
had heard discussed a n d
could ask questions. 1t is pos
sible that suggestions Of the
observers might be trans
mitted to the council Fathers
through the secretariat.
IN ANY CASE, the func-
ton of the observers will be
exactly what the word indi-
cates-to observe. And the
service which the secretariat
will render to them will be
chiefly to give the greatest
clarity to what they o b.
serve.
The third p phase Of the
secretariat may be perman-
ent. After the council is over,
it may take its place among
the other offices and congre-
cations which havea per-
manent place in the central
a d m inistration of the
Church.
In this phase one may logi-
cally assume that it would
continue to interpret the Ca
tholic Church to non-C atho-
lie bodies and would be the
Church's official organ for
continuing that long dia-
logue by which it is hoped
that unity might eventually
be realized.

Churches closed

BERLIN Seventy-four churches have been closed

Ukraine and "a religious sects forced to cease activity, &C.
conding to information received here.
Zhitomir, which lies in the western Ukraine, has a
population of 1.8 million.
Other information received here states that there are
10000 Russian Orthodox priests in the entire Soviet
Union and they minister to some 40 million faithful.
This is reported in the Soviet Union Atheists Hand
book.
The handbook also says: The Soviet Union has some
10000 churches and chapes, So monasteries and two theo-
logical academies; admission to the seminarians has been

Praises Indian leaders 80.

MYSORE, India - Church-State relations in India
have been happy, cordial and intimate, Valerian Cardinal
Gracias@ asserted here.
The Cardinal-Archbishop of Bombay stated: ut is
the craftsmanship and political wisdom of Indias leaders
that gave the country a secular state"
Cardinal Gracias was speaking in response to a pub
lie welcome on his visit to this part of southern India. He
said that Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru was right in
saying that a secular state does not mean "a goddess state"
1t is instead one in which no particular religion is favored
and adherents of all religious beliefs are given freedom to
practice and propagate, he said.

In Puerto Rico

COROZAL, F. R. - A Lutheran minister who founded
the governing Popular party joined the Catholic oriented
Christian Action party here.
The Rev. Jose M. del Rio Julien, a Lutheran leader for
the last ~ years, upon joining the CAP, described himself
as some more soldier in this great movement for moral,
social and Christian recuperation" in Puerto Rico.
The titular head of the Popular party now is Gov.
Luis Munoz Marin. The Catholic Action party was formed
in May, 1860, after the forces of Gov. Munoz Marin in the
islands House of Representatives killed off a bill to pro-
vide a released-time system of religious education for pub
lie school children.

In practical terms this
would mean, for example, to
establish the exact situation
with its unity problems in
various countries what vari-
Gus non-C Catholic Christians
have in common with the
Roman Catholic Church n
doctrine, discipline and cult,
and also how they differ
from it; what are the de-
sires Of these different
groups touching on the
problem of unity and what
ways t he Catholic Church
can help them to true unity.
In the preparatory period
of the council the Secretar-
lat for Promoting Christian
Unity has been the point Of
contact and correspondence
between Rome and non-Ca-
tholic groups and PERSONAL
ties.
1t was instrumental in ar
ranging the papal audiences
of several important nom
Catholic leaders. Notable
among these were: DR.. Geof-
frey Fisher, the former
Archbishop Of Canterbury
and Anglican Primate of all
England; DR.. J. II. Jackson,
president of the Baptist Con-
vention of the United States;
the Ri. Rev. Archibald

the Church of Scotland; the
Orthodox Metropolitan D a.

While the council is in

its work will be to assist the
non-C Catholic observers.
The status of these OBJ

1.-The mission will be a crusade of prayer and penance
for the ecumenical council, y Joseph Cardinal Ritter, Arch

VATICAN CITY - The
Secretariat for Promoting
Christian Unity, officially a
small part of the prepare
tions for the Second Vati-
can Council, may in fact
prove to be an instrument
of one of its greatest eff
fects.
His Holiness Pope John
XXIII's first announcement
in January, 1859, of his in-
tention to call a council in
Guided his wish that it be
IAN invitation to the separa-
ted communities to unity"
YET A SHORT time later,
speaking to a group of
priests from Bologna, he
said that the councils first
task would be to attend to
the Church's internal af-
fairs and only afterwards
could the Church give its at
tention directly to the desir-
ed unity of Christian church,
eS.
In spite of the Pope's in
sistence that Christian unity,
however important, would
not be the first concern Oh
the council-a position that
was echoed repeatedly by
Augustin Cardinal Bea, pre-
sident of the Secretariat-
this one facet of the coming
council has so captured the
imagination and fired t h e
hopes of the general public
as to make many believe
that this S h councils
chief purpose.
AS a matter of fact, the
members of the staff of the
Secretariat for Promoting
Christian Unity regard its
function in preparation for
the council as being consider
ably minor to its follow-up
work once the council is
over.
Cardinal B e a, indicating
this point in an Italian ma
gazine article, s said tn t
where reunion is concerned
"the council cannot be an
end but rather a starting
point"

VATICAN CITY - Three men Religious of the 18th
century are now expected to be canonized together next
December BLESSED Francesca Maria of Camporosso,
Blessed Peter Julian Eymard and Blessed Antonio Pucci.
Blessed francesca, a Capuchin Brother, was born at
Camporosso, northern Italy, in 1904 and died in 1866. He
was beatified in 1929.
Blessed Peter Eymard, founder of the congregation
of the Priests of the Blessed Sacrament, was born near
Grenoble, France in 1911 and died in 1868. He was beati-
fled in 1925.
Blessed Antonio Pucci was born near Pistoia, Italy, in
1919. He became a priest of the Servite Order-the Ser
wants of Maryland died in 1892. His qualification took
place in 1852.
Asks school aid -.
MYSORE, India - Catholic schools deserve government
aid because they contribute to national unity, Valerian Car
dinal Gracias, Archbishop of Bombay said here.
His words were particularly timely because the Indian
Education Minister, DR.. Kalu Lal Shrimal, recently told the
Indian Parliament that the country's education policy is to
encourage private schools "even if 100 per cent must be
given them" He said this in rejecting a members demand
that the government take over more schools.
The Cardinal also disclosed that a full-fledged Catholic
medical college for India would soon be built at Bangalore,
on land already purchased.
