They also stated that the council will aid the return of Protestants to the Church, preserve the Faith against neomodernism and false progress, and give new directives regarding the mis sions and the role of laymen. Cardinal Cicognani said the council will again show the Church’s concern for the re turn of separated Christians of the East. He declared: "The forthcoming council will give new impetus to this task of coming together and, though one should not expect among its immediate conse quences imposing mass con versions, there is reason to cherish the hope that the num ber of individual returns to the true Church will be high." The Cardinal said the in vitation of His Holiness Pope John XXIII to separated Christians is not one to par ticipate directly in the coun cil but rather to learn in an atmosphere of understanding the road leading to unity with in the Catholic Church. At a similar study session in Assisi, Italy, in August, Cardinal Cicognani pointed out that Church efforts on behalf of the Eastern Rites should help hasten reunion of Ortho dox Christians with the Holy See. His Eminence Giovanni Car dinal Urbani, Patriarch of Venice, told the seminar here that there is no doubt that the council will take an interest in the achievement of world OBITUARIES SERVICES FOR OLGA MARY, JR. peace. Cardinal Urbani said this is not among the council’s prin cipal aims, since it does not “seek to take the place of supernational assemblies and political organizations working for the establishment of peace.” But, he added, “this Coun cil is an assembly convened by the Church for specific in ternal purposes and it is only I in the spirit of peace that it ©sir Best Wishes To You „..

THE BULLETIN, October 1, l»od—rALrL COURT GIVES SHERIFF FREE HAND IN CAMPAIGN ON SMUT NEWARK (NC) — For the second time in six months, Su perior Court here has refused to interfere with Sheriff Neil G. Duffy’s tactics in his cam paign against obscene publica tions. Judge Nelson K. Mintz de nied an application for a pre liminary injunction sought by five New York publishing groups. Judge Mintz had turn ed down a similar request made by four other New York publishers in the Spring.

Owens will be able to give a useful contribution toward the sta bility in the world of spiritual peace and even of political and social peace.” Another speaker said that among the most important pastoral problems to be con sidered by the council is that of the de-Christianization of the working class in some countries. Msgr. Carlo Maccari, sec retary general of the Rome Vicariate, noted that many re cently divised means of meet ing this problem have failed. Despite the failures, there has been demonstrated the need to bring pastoral activi ties up to date, Msgr. Maccari declared. An official of the Sacred Congregation of the Holy Of fice said that the Pope’s crea tion of the Secretariat for the Unity of Christians as a pre paratory body for the council reflects the “slow change of psychology” in relations be tween Catholics and non- Catholics. Father Marco Giraido, O.P., vice commissary general of the congregation, called the decree setting up the secre tariate a "magna carta" in the field of developing conlacts between Catholics and sepa rated Christians.

Services For M rs. Amerson sheriff was exceeding his pow ers by acting in an arbitrary and unreasonable manner. The plaintiffs brought their suit because of Sheriff Duf fy’s wholesale seizure of their publications in a series of store raids. They claimed that this interfered with the distribu tion of their product and that Mr. Duffy needed only one or two copies of the publications to establish his court case. Noting that the sheriff could even buy copies of publications he believes obscene for sub mission to the grand jury, Judge Mintz nevertheless said that if the sheriff “in his wis dom, deems it advisable to seize such publications, the court will not interfere.” REFLECTION Before you begin exposing the faults of others count ten — ten of your own.

"It is the first time the Ro man Church has made contact with the official bodies of the separated churches," Father Giraudo said. "The bishops are invited now to take an active interest in the relations . . . with the separated brothers. "This bears witness to how the slow change of psychology, recorded during fhe last cen tury regarding the Protestant communities, has led to the resumption of relations which, with mutual knowledge of one another, can smooth the sharp edges of prejudice and favor the return within the Church, although the difficulties in re gard to unity are still very great." Father Luigi Ciappi, O.P., private theologian of the Pope, discussed the subject: “What does theology expect from the council?” He said theology expects the council to maintain the com plete preservation of the Faith against every attempt of neomodernism and false prog ress. The council, moreover, will defend the Faith with the condemnation of all new er rors and. it is hoped that the ology may once again be add ed to thh curriculum of public universities. . Father Ciappi and the Sec ond Vatican Council will pro vide precise directives regard ing various questions of our times. Presumably, he said, it will confirm and bring up to date the teachings of the re cent popes, particularly those of Pope Pius XXII. Furthermore, he predicted, it is expected that the council will give new directives re garding missionary problems and the place that laymen should have in the church.
