Close Vatican Council Vote
De-emphasizes Mary's Role

At the heart of the matter
is the highly controversial
question of whether the role of
the Mother of Christ has been
overemphasized in Roman
Catholic theology. 1t is a ques-
ton that has troubled Chris
tians for centuries.
Some of the delegates feel
that a separate schema might
put undue emphasis on Mary
and distort her role in tn e
church. This group holds that
by making the Marian docu-
ment part of a larger topic on
the nature of the church, the
Council could improve relations
with Protestants.
1T seems an actual tragedy
that Our Lady is an object of
divisions among Christians
when she should be a unifying
figure"
Support for subordination of
the Marian document has come
especially from Latin Ameri-
can bishops. They have ex-
pressed concern about W h a t
they call the excessive venera-
ton of Mary in their countries
and have commended this gave
a false picture of her place
in the church.
Opposition to this view has
come chiefly from conservative
bishops of Spain.

Prompt action to cut taxes
would help increase the gross
national product to an annual
rate of $500 billion next spring
from a rate of 1896 billion now,
Treasury Secretary Dillon pre-
dicted today.
If Congress doesn't cut taxes,
he said, GIMP will rise to an
annual rate of only $608.5 bill
lion next spring, he said.
Mr.. Dillon submitted figures
projecting personal income,
corporation profits, and GIMP
as he asked the House Ways
and Means Committee to raise
the temporary" debt ceiling
from 5000 billion to 1915 billion.
GIMP was at an annual rate
of $685. billion in the july
September quarter, and Mr..
Dillon estimated it will rise to
a rate of 1896 billion in the
current quarter.
That would produce total
GIMP of 1884 billion for 1868,
up from $554.9 billion last year.
The estimate of 1884 billion
exceeded the administrators
forecast of about $578 billion
last January. Administration
leaders lately have said GIMP
would total about 1888 billion
in 1863.

16 in favor with reservations,
Two ballots were null.
The vote on Mary was closer.
A Council spokesman said
lila prelates voted to incor-
porate consideration of tn e
Virgins place in Catholic the
ology in a broad schema or
topic on the nature of the
church, while 1,074 voted to
consider a separate schema on
Mary.
Two Council fathers voted
for incorporation with reServa-
lions, and three ballots were
blank.
1t was one of the closest votes
in the Council since the as
sembly of 1900 prelates opened
more than a year ago. Council
decisions usually require a two
thirds majority, but the &C
ton today was considered pro-
cedural and required only a
majority of the 2,193 prelates
voting, or 1897 votes.
As a result of the vote the
Marian topic will become a
chapter in the theological
schema de ecclesia," which the
Council has been debating for
the past month. de ecclesia'

tufe of the Roman Catholic

VATICAN CITY, Oct. 2s
(AP)-The Vatican Ecumeni-
cal Council voted by a narrow
margin today to put less en-
phasis on the role of the Vir-
gin Mary.
The Council de-emphasized
its consideration of the Virgin
by acting to incorporate a
separate document concerning
her in a larger schema on the
Roman Catholic Church as
whole.
Gregory Peter Cardinal Aga
gianian, who presided at the
session in st. Peters Basilica,
told the council fathers before
the vote that the outcome
would not imply any lesSening
of honor to the Mother of
Christ. But the vote obviously
changed the stress.
The action is expected to
have wide implications for eff
forts to promote Christian
unity. Protestants often have
criticized Roman Catholic en-
phasis on Mary.
In another major action to-
day, the Council approved a
document endorsing efforts to
work out an international per-
petual calendar and a fixed
date for Easter. The vote was
2,l54 in favor, 81 against, and

Mississippi Republicans are
mixing Goldwaterism, anti
Kennedyism, ra cism and the
Grand Ole Opry to give the
Democrats the first hard run
they've had in a gubernatorial
race since reconstruction days.
If the Democrats aren't run
ming scared t they're at least
walking worried toward Tues
days election.
"KO the Kennedys" is the
Republican cry.
"A two-party system in Mis-
Sissippi would end our way of
life." is the slogan of the Dem
ocrats, who also are campaign
ing against the Kennedys.
Politics Not in Season"
The Republicans think they
can win. 1t would be hard to
find anyone to put money on it,
though.
But win or lose, the hard
working Republicans, who are
really converted but unrecon-
structed Southern Democrats,
are giving Mississippi a big
boost toward a two-party Sys-
tenn.
Fall in Mississippi isn't the
time of year for politics.
The Democrats usually have
things settled long before
now in their primaries, and the
thoughts Of Mississippians are
on cotton, corn, Ole Miss foot
ball and whom to put up for
Miss America next time. But
