A Good Address in Atlanta Faith Profession, Revelation, Clergy Status, Observers At Council Under Commission Study VATICAN CITY, (NC)— Members of the Central Prep- ratory Commission for the forthcoming Ecumenical Coun cil have studied the following major matters at their second meeting: a better distribution of the clergy, a new definition of the sources of Revelation, a new formula for the profes sion of faith, and the question of inviting non-Catholics to the council. Commission members took a vote on the question of invit ing non-Catholics to be coun cil observers, but did not dis close the results. After several Rome papers had claimed the vote was favorable, the Com mission’s press office issued a statement saying the reports were premature and that, in any event, the final decision was the Pope’s. The proposals on the source of Revelation and on the pro fession of faith appeared by their nature to have been re lated to projects submitted by the Praparatory Commission on Theology. The proposal of a new for mula for the profession of faith was introduced by Alfredo Cardinal Ottaviani, secretary of the Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office. The main is sue here was the question combining the present formula with the oath against Modern ism. The profession of faith would be nothing new in the Church. Canon law now re quires that it be pronounced by certain individuals as they enter positions of responsibil ity where matters of Faith are involved. Among these are candidates for the priesthood. Pastors and certain seminary professors are also required to pronounce it. The most immediate applica tion of the new formula' would be in the council itself. All persons with a decisive or ev en a consultative vote would be required to take it. The draft for a constitution of the surces of Revalation would touch on the teachings of the Church itself. In the language of the coun cil, the word “constitution” would mean a document con taining a definition of truths pertaining to the Faith. This would distinguish it from a “decree,” whch would refer to documents declaring dis ciplinary decisions. The word “Revelation” here would refer to the truths re vealed by God to man. In the Catholic Church the sources of supernatural Revelation are held to be the Sacred Scrip tures and tradition. The pro posed constitution would clarify the Church’s teaching in these matters. Proposed legislation which would create a better distri bution of the clergy to meet shifts in population, and extra ordinary needs in certain areas, was under examination. It was submitted by the Prep aratory. Commission for the Discipline of the Clergy and Christian People. The proposal was presented by Pietro Cardinal Ciriaci, president of that commission. Discussion that followed was chiefly on the canon law pro visions that govern the en- gaging (incardination) of priests in dioceses and their release (excardination) to other dioceses. Throughout its work the Central Commission followed the rules of procedure that it had established for itself in its June asemblies. The meet ings were presided over by His Holiness Pope John XXIII or, in his absence, by the sen ior Cardinal. Eugene Cardinal Tisserant served in this ca pacity in the Pope’s absence this week. Each assembly began with an outline of the questions on the agenda for that particular meeting. Then the secretary general, Archbishop Pericle Felici, read the project or brief submitted by a partic ular preparatory commission. The president of the prepa ratory commission whose project had been read then illustrated and explained the various elements of the proj ect. After this came the questions, discussion and fin al vote. Central Commission mem bers had three possible votes: “placet,” or approved; “non placet,” disapproved; “placet iuxta modum,” approved with reservations. Projects are approved by a two-thirds vote, unless the Pope establishes a different proportion for special proj ects. A vote of approval with reservations is considered a favorable vote if the number of this kind of votes is at least one-fourth of the total votes cast and if the reserva tion could not be eliminated by a new version of the text be ing voted upon. In the event that a project is not approved by the Cen tral Commission it can be sent back to a preparatory com mission for revision, and then returned for new considera tion. There was no plenary ses sion of the Central Commis sion on the day following its convocation. That day (Nov. 8) was devoted to the mem bers’ private study of the doc uments and projects that had been submitted to them for ap proval. In Ecuador NEWLEFTIST PRESIDENT NAMES MODERATE CABINET QUITO, Ecuador, (NC)— Leftist President Carlos Julio Arosemena Monroy took up the reigns of government and while speaking of “my friend Nikita Khrushchev” and of friendly relations with Fidel Castro’s Cuba, appointed a middle-of-the-road cabinet headed by a Christian Demo cratic foreign minister. Arosemena was sworn in (Nov. 9) following a violent week which first saw him jail ed by former President Jose Maria Valasco Ibarra and then witnessed the armed forces come to his defense and force Valasco from office. An esti mated three dozen persons were killed during the military action and rioting. The new President is 42 yeards old and comes from an old banking family which has long been prominent socially and politically. Both his fath er and grandfather had been president before him. Arose mena has a reputation of be ing conservative financially. He indicated on taking office that he would seek social re forms, saying that “hunger, misery and unemployment” are the main problems con fronting Ecudor today. In his first address on tak ing office, Arosemena spoke of the visit he had made to the Soviet Union last July when he was Vice President and thus president of the Senate. He had left Ecuador on the day that Adlai E. Stevenson, U. S. Ambassaddor to the United Nations was due to arrive on a good-will mission. “In going,” Arosemena said of the trip, “I was only dem onstrating that Ecuador is a free and sovereign country.” In taking over as President, Arosemena had the announced support of both the Conserva tive party, the country’s old est political group, which gen erally supports the Catholic Church, and of the Commun ist party. But as Foreign Af fairs Minister he selected Fran cisco Acosta Yepz, a member of the small Christian Demo cratic party, which stresses the social teaching of the Church. No cabinet post went to a communist. The day Valasco Ibarra was forced out as President, Aux iliary Bishop Benigno Chiri- boga of Guito made a special plea for peace and order and warned that the country was in mortal danger. His appeal, made in the absence of Carlos Maria Cardinal de la Torre, Archbishop of Quito—who was in Rome for a meeting of the Central Preparatory Commis sion of the ecumenical council —also stressed the need for prayer. Valasco Ibarra in his last radio address as president had linked Arosemena with com munism. He also spoke out against ‘certain venerable priests. . . who, through hat red of me, formented the mon strosity which wil crush them, if I do not overcome it.” V a 1 a sc o mentioned no names. But some quarters here interpreted his reference ot the clergy as an indication he was still smarting from sever al statements made by Ecua dorian Bishops earlier this year. The Hierarchy in a joint statement last July stated: “A reasonable and proper ly based social transformation is indispensable and urgently needed in our country. The Bishops proclaim emphatical ly that it is necesesary to care for those who suffer, to help those who are seeking homes, land and job opportunities to fulfill honorably God’s law to earn their daily bread by the sweat of their brows.” Such a transformation should be brought about by experts and ‘with respect for the rights of man and the supreme laws of God,” they said. In another joint pastoral statement last February, the Bishops condemned “the un justifiable blindness” of big landowners for refusing to MADRAS, India, (NC)—The chairman of India’s Catholic Union has called on the Home Minister to end discrimination against Catholic harijans, the name now given to the “un touchables.” A. Soares warned Home Minister Lai Bahadur Shastri that discrimination at present is creating bitterness and stands in the way of national unity. Soares pointed out that in some states Catholic harijans are well treated, but that in others they are denied the state aid given to Hindu hari jans and even to those who have been converted to Bud dhism. The economic situation of the Catholic harijans, he heed the Church’s teaching on social justice and the equita ble distribution of wealth. The February pastoral de nounced existing civil laws for promoting secularism and thus preparing the ground for communism in Ecuador. The Bishops also said: “If we condemn the injus tices of capitalism and the landed exploiters of the In dians, if we speak out against the soft life of many Catho lics who waste the money of the poor on luxuries and so cial festivities, we are identi fied with communism.” ' “The Christians of today sometimes need the jolt of communism to be awakened to the reality of the Gospels,” they said. added, is not better than that of the non-Catholics. Earlier this year spokesmen for Caholic harijans in My sore and Madras States pro tested against a government ruling that Catholics are mem bers of an “advanced com munity” and so ineligible for aid received by the “back ward classes,” as harijans are also called. The Catholic spokesman asked that Catholic harijans in all states receive equal treatment with non-Catholic members of the class in the granting of scholarships and other education aid, housing and farm loans and credits, distribution of state lands, and assistance in operating home and cottage industries. Protests Discrimination Church At Site Of Death Camp HILDESHEIM (NC)—Bishop Heinrich Maria Janssen of Hildesheim dedicated on No vember 22 a “Church of Atonement of the Precious Blood” near the site of nazi Germany’s Bergen-Belgen con centration camp, where 70,000 persons perished.
