He noted that the customary
poll tax costs less than base

one refusing to pay it sis not
likely to improve the Govern
ment by his vote" -
Senator Hill confined his
one-hour speech mainly to an
elaboration of his statement
that the poll tax itself is a
very minor question here in
comparison to the paramount
principle which involves the
overriding issue of centraliza-,
ton of power in the Federal
Government"
Senator Eastland, pausing
often to reply to friendly ques-.
tons from Senator Hill, opened
the Saturday elaboration with

that of completing the doc
trine Of episcopal authority,
considering the relations be-
tween the religious orders
and the bishops, and the ne
cessity of greater participa-
ton of the laity in the life
of the Church. But the two
greatest problems were, I'M
~doubtedly, the union of all
Christians. which admittedly
could not be attained all at
once, and how to counter the
moral crisis the world was
experiencing in such tragic
contrast to its technical pro-
gress.
The Fathers of the Coun-
ell, he went on, would not
fail in authoritative declara-
tions against the theological
errors of the present time.
The aims and themes of
the coming Council have
been repeatedly stated by the
Pope to the Strengthening of
faith, moral renewal, the
adaptation of ecclesiastical
legislation to changed condi-
tons, and the preparation of
a future reunion of those
outside the Church. These
may well be called extreme
ly general aims, and one
Protestant dig has
spoken regretfully of the Sin
Substantially of the state
ments made about the Coun-
Gil up to the present.
BUT IF WE look closely,
we can see there is a single
basic idea running through
all that the Pope has said on
the most various occasions.
1t is his favorite idea, to
which he always returns, and
which he designates as the
actual program of the Coun-
Gil. The leitmotive (domi-
nant motive) of all the dis
cussions of the Council is to
be the manifestation of the
one, holy, catholic and apos-
tolic Church in her Unity
and Catholicity.
The two great encyclicals
of John XIII, Ad Petri Ca
thedram June %, 1889 and
Princeps Pastorum Nov. %,
1852 clarity both the unity
and the catholicity of the
Church, and the two docu-
ments lay down in advance
the basic program of the
Council.
Great as are the POSSIBLE
ties of a successful outcome,
we must not ignore the diff
ficulties in the way of the
Council arising from the
changed conditions of the

a person receives Holy Com
munion on the same day.
Those impeded from going to
Church (invalids) can gain
the same indulgence by hav-
ing a crucifix specially bless
ed and reciting an Our Faith
er, Hail Mary and Glory Be
for each station, with six
more for the intention of the
Holy Father, while meditating
on the sufferings of Our Lord.
@. IF q serious sin in the
past is bothering you should
you tell your husband lmar-
ried a little over a year, or
is il better TO keep still?
A. Keep still! The Sacra-
ment of Penance is the prop
er place for a troubled con-
science. Ii there is any good
reason for telling your spouse
the confeSsor can advise you.
Unless there is some advan-
tage or some urgency in the
telling it would be imprudent
and unkind to disilluSion the
other party.
We are all sinners and we
should all be prepared to ac-
cept the fact for ourselves
and for our loved ones. Never
theless we are not all able
to accept revelations of past
sins which are disillusioning.
God alone can be trusted to
accept the full story of our
sins without reaction-except
for a manifestation of His
mercy and the flow of His
healing grace.

scious of being in the mi
nority, and that its influ-
ence on public life is waning.
CO. The colonial epoch is
over. The colonial period be-
gan with the discovery of
America in the Fifteenth
Century, and lasted $50
years, till the end of the Sec
ond World War. 1t saw q
worldwide expansion Of Eu-
ropean power, industry and
culture. Missionaries had no
other aim than preaching the
Gospel, but they were help
ed in this by the enormous
prestige of the Christian
countries with the colored
peoples. On this account,
they became, whether they
wanted to or not, a means Of
communicating their own ma
tive culture. But it was no
fault of theirs that their
work Of CHARACTERIZATION be-
came linked with the expan-
sion of European spheres Of
influence. Up to the First
World War, the favorable
prospects of the missions in
Asia and Africa were practi-
cally unlimited. The superb
GRITTY of the Christian culture
and of the civilization of Eu-
rope and America was UNI
questioned; and the ~ineffec-
tive pagan nature-religions
were no longer considered
serious rivals of Christiani-
ty.
Today nearly all the CO.
lonial regimes have disap-
peared. In spite of much in
justice, they had favored, in
one way or another. the
spread of western Christian
culture and the work of the
missions. They have been re-
placed by nationalistic gov
ernments, often suspicious
and unfriendly, even direct
ly hostile, to Christianity.
Furthermore. the worldwide
chronological civilization of
the present day is wholly
secular. Fifty years ago,
mankind in general still liv-
ed, in some degree, under the
influence of a culture whose
roots were Christian; but
now the majority is subject
either to the communist ide-
Ology or to the influence of
revived nom Christian natu-
ral-religions. Buddhism, Hin
duism and Mohammedanism
have awakened to new life
and self-awareness and seek
to develop a modern culture
corresponding to their own
religious outlook. Allied to
their revival is an ardent ma
tionalism, which sees Chris
tianity as a hostile religion.
IF WE IN THE w e t
want to help the peoples of
Asia and Africa to solve
their own problems we have
to apply ourselves to under
standing their spiritual and
religious traditions.
Fifty years ago it looked
as if the course of history
was almost inevitably bring

by the Church. 1t does not
take the place of family and
personal responsibility. 1t
would seem to be the parents
responsibility to check the
rating of movies seen by
younger children. 1t would
seem to be their responsible
ity TO determine when a child
has reached the age of great
er personal freedom and judg-
ment that is implied in the
adolescent listing. That might
vary from one child to the
next.
1t would seem to apply gen.
orally to juniors and seniors
in high school and less often
to freshmen and sophomores.
The adult category would
seem to presume the age of
eighteen, graduation from
high school or some similar
stage of maturity. In some
cases a conscientious Catho-
lie young man or woman
might honestly recognize that
he is not ready for adult fare.
After all, it is his soul that
can be endangered and he
should seek and follow coun-
sci and advice - especially
in the confessional.
@. Why do so few people
pray the stations? Aren't
they highly induIseneed?
A. Perhaps too many peo-
pie have become too Deepen
dent upon station prayer
books. If Catholics would SIM
ply make the stations and ap-
ply the scenes from the life
of Our Lord to their daily
lives in their own way they
would find it a more appeal
ing devotion. Everybody is in
a hurry these days and the
old idea of reading pages of
prayers composed by someone
else keeps many away from
this consoling and beautiful
devotion.
The Church shows great in
terest in the stations as seen
by the indulgences available:
a plenary indulgence for 60

station mo set formula de-

On Jan. IS, 1859, at the
conclusion of the world oc-
taVe of prayer for unity.
Pope John XIII announced
the second Vatican Council,
which should also be an invi-
tatlon to our separated breth-
rem to seek unity.
IN AN ADDRESS Aug.
1859, the Pope expressly
stated that it was when he
was meditating, in the uni
ty octave, on Christ's sacer-
dotal prayer and His prayer
for unity that the idea of a
Council came like the spon-
taneous Towering of an un-
expected spring." not as the
fruit of long consideration,
but - as the Pope said else
where = as a sudden inspira-
ton from above. a personal
lntimation by the Holy Spir-
1t.
1t is still too early to do
more than guess at individu-
al subjects; but we may point
out that the Councils of
Trent and of the Vatican
both remained incomplete.
The former dealt with the
doctrine on Scripture and
Tradition, original sin and
justification, and on the sac
raments, but not with that
of the Church itself, though
This is the fourth INSTALL

EcumenicaI Council - The
Church and ChristendOm,"

enz Jaeger of PaderbOrn,
Germany, and just publish
ed in English translation by
p. j. Kennedy & Sons, New
York;
this was the focal point Of
the disputes between the
Protestants and Catho lies.
The split between the two
sides was fundame n t
over the doctrine of the
Church. But the Council was
constantly under pressure of
time and the conclusion of
its final period was rushed
through too hastily, owing to
the Pope's serious illness and
the likelihood of his death.
Three hundred years later,
the Vatican Council intend
ed to bring out the doctrine
"on the Church of Christ
omitted by Trent. The out

ing about the spread Of the
kingdom of God over the
earth; but the situation has
changed compl etely. The
course Of history now seems
to oppose the Church's mis-
sion. The great Soviet En-
cyclopedia." shed in
1858, predicts, in the article
on missions, a complete
breakdown Of miss ionary
work. In view Of the increas-
ing obstacles, Chri stian
themselves may be tempted
To despair.
But Gods Word remains
untettered. The great mis-
take Of the enemies Of Chris
tianity is TO judge the Church
by political and sociological
standards. No doubt. the his
tory of the Church as a visi-
BILE society is affected by po-
litical and social factors. but

line submitted to the Fathers
on January 81, 1870, and ex-
banded on March 6, dealt
with the Church and it's
structure in Is chapters.
Only the two on papal pri-
macy and infallibility could
be discussed and officially
decided dogmatic a II y. The
rest were left, because the
outbreak of the Franco-Prus-
sian war and the siege of
Rome by the Piedmontese
army forced the propagation
Of the Council.
BEFORE THE discussion
on the primacy and infalli-
bility, a decree was issued,
in the third session on Apr.
d, 1870, ION t he Catholic
Faith" in which the errors
of the time agnosticism,
pantheism and so-called
"Hermes i anism" were
condemned, and which dealt,
in four chapters, with the
existence and our knowledge
of a personal God, the ne
cessity of divine revelation,
the nature of faith, and the
relation between faith and
natural knowledge.
After a lapse of 80 years,
it is hardly possible to sum-
mon a Council that would be
simply a continuation of the
former. For that reason, as
Cardinal Tardini explained
in his address on Oct. 81,
1859, the coming Council
will be called the Second Vat
lean Council, and, like the
first, hold its sessions in
the Basilica of St. Peter.
In his concluding address
to the Roman diocesan sy-
nod, Pope John declared:
"~Oecumenicum Conci
convocandum Vaticanum
secundum voca vocabitur."
(The Ecumenical Council he
convoked will be called the
Second Vatican).
Cardinal Montini, the
Archbishop of Milan, point
ed out that the coming Sec
ond Vatican Council would
be the first in history that
had neither to surmount in
ternal discord nor to solve
problems of doctrine disput-
eG within the Church. On
the contrary, the Church was
to take cogniZance of what
was demanded by her grow
ing life, of her evangelizing
mission and of her own spir-
itual needs.
AMONG OTHER duties of
the Council, he mentioned

present time. Doubtless, the
Church stands i'm her cath
Ollie unity as a sign raised
aloft among the nations, and
she stands in no danger with
in from heresy or schism. 1t
is also true that there is not
the same need of reform as
there was at the time of the
Council of Trent, and that
the administration of the
Church works very smooth
ly,
What, then, is the reason
for a Council?
All Councils have a two
fold aspect, one doctrinal,
the other disciplinary; and
one or the other of these pre-
dominates according to the
eXigencies of the time. 1t
would seem that, in the COM
ing Council, questions con-
corning the practical appli-
cation of Christianity will be
foremost, and that they will
be considered in the light of
determined theological prin-
ciples.
IN HIS FIRST encyclical,
Ad Petri Cathedram, Pope
John enumerated the chief
objects of the Council as the
development of the Catholic
faith, the moral renovation
of Christian life, and the adj
justment of ecclesias t
discipline to the needs and
methods of the present. Con-
sequently, a good part of its
work will be to find the right
answers to those problems
which have arisen through
the changes in the world
since the time of the Vatican
Council.
Councils always mark i'm
portant turning-points in the
Church's history; and we are
now at one of them. The
Church is obliged to take ac-
count of the wholly altered
state of the world, if it is
to fulfil its mission. This new

by the Spirit it has its own
proper laws Of development
and is not to be explained
solely by natural causes.
lin the next instaIlment,
Archbishop Jaeger deals with
the present-day worlds need
of the Church, and of the
Church's mission in the
world tOday.)
