however, that He did not establish His
Apostles and their successors as trans
mltters of His message and of His
grace. Just as God spoke and acted
through Moses, Samuel, Isaias and Da-
Vld in the Old Testament, so Christ
speaks and acts through His Church
(as indicated in Matthew 2~8:16-2O).
In giving them power to forgive sins
(John "20:19-23) he stated the idea:
as the Father has sent me, | also
send you" We have the mission of the
Church developed in St. Paul and in
his disciples, Titus, Timothy and
Luke. The Mystical Body of Christ,
the Church, is identified with Christ.
When the priest performs the great
ACT of his priesthood in the Mass he
says as he ~consecrates: That is MY
BODY. When he absolves in confess
sion: | FORGIVE you.
That is why the priest is known as
another Christ" = it is not his in
~telligence, his holiness or his under
standing that is at work. Christ speaks
and acts through him. Just as the
mediators of the Old Testament had
their human weaknesses, so do the
priests of the Church. Their place as
mediators or ambassadors of Christ is
based on the will of Christ. not on
their ability.
We can see the value of the signs of
the sacraments and of the visible and
living voice of Christ in His Church.
The human weaknesses which mar
this human channel of Gods grace
should not distract us. Faith shows us
the Church as the Bride of Christ
without spot, a treasury of grace for
us.

Churches are making deter
mined efforts in the first
place to overcome their diff
ferences. The fact that they
almost unanimously recog-
nize the leading position of
the Patriarch of Constantine
ople is an indication of the
way to unity which appeals
to them.
IN THE SPRING of 1860,
the Patriarch Athenagoras
paid an official visit to the
three other Patriarchs of the
Near East, a thing unpreced-
ented in the Byzantine and
Turkish eras. The Patriarch
of Constantinople was con-
cerned not only with return
ing their precious visit to
himself, but with strengthen
ing the bonds between the
Orthodox Patriarchs and pre-
pairing the Orthodox Church
es for the Prosynod IF
Rhodes.
This meeting was to lead
the way to a General Council
of the Orthodox Churches
which would further their CO.
operation with one another
and lead to closer relations
with the Monnnhvcitn and
HISTORIAN communities.
What do the Easterns
think of Church unity and
its mode of achievement?
We recall what Archbishop
Athenagoras. of Thyatira
said at the plenarv assembly
of the World Council of
Churches in Lund: "The Or
thodox Church confesses it is
a matter not of human learn
ing. but of divine revelation.
This is to be found only in
the one Catholic and Apos-
tolic Church, to which divid-
ed Christianity must find
its way, if it really aspireS
to the unity of the Church"

ArmyWeighs
Added Duty
For Reserves
BY the Associated Press

Army planners are proposing
a major change in the volunteer
reserve training program to give
some men more than the pres
ent six months Of active duty.
Youth volunteering for GER
tain complex specialties would
be trained for up to 10 months
before returning to civilian life
and joining National Guard or
Reserve units.
Conversely. men in less de-
manding military specialties
who complete their training
course ahead of the six-month
mark would be released as much
as two or three weeks earlier.
Would Trim Time
The tentative plan also calls
for trimming the overall mill
tary obligation of men in this
program from a maximum of
eight years to six years, split
between active duty and service
with the Guard or the Reserve
The proposals are being dis
cussed at the staff level and
have not yet been finally ap-
proved. Congress would have to
enact any changes.
A restudy of the 5-year-old
Reserve training program was
begun after powerful Congress
men claimed it failed to meet
the Army's needs for adequately
skilled men in the Berlin crisis
military buildup last fall.
Under that program men be-
tween II and 26 may enlist for
pecific posts in specific Re-
serve and Guard units. They
then undergo six months of ac-
tive duty training and are ex-
empt from the two-year draft.
Drill Required
After returning to civilian
life, these men must drill with
their ready Reserve or Guard
units for up to another 51a
years.
Some of the six-month active
trainees are obligated to spend
an additional two years in the
Inactive Reserve, bringing their
total service to eight years.
Key Army leaders are willing
to waive these last two years.
Complaints arose after Army
commanders reached into the
Reserve reinforcement pool and
took men with two or three
years of active duty behind
them. This was done because
