No Doctrine Differences
During Council Debates
CAPE TOWN (NC) The main
differences of opinion in the
ecumenical council’s debates
concerned the presentation not
the doctrine of the various pro
jects presented to the council.
That is the opinion expressed
here by Archbishop Owen Mc
Cann of Cape Town on his re
turn from the Vatican.
THE ARCHBISHOP said in an
interview published in the Ca
tholic newspaper. The Southern
Cross, that some council Fa
thers wanted the projects—

to be presented in a tone that
is "pastoral, evangelican and
meaningful for ordinary people
in contradistinction to the scho
lastic and juristic manner In
which they had been drawn up.
It is this view—that of the ma
jority—which is behind the re
vision of the schema which is
being undertaken."
Archbishop McCann stressed
the evident unity of the bishops
with His Holiness Pope John
XXIII as supreme pontiff on the
hand and, on the other, the "col-
legiality" of the bishops as the
successors of the College of
the Apostales. He stated:
‘THE BISHOPS were very
conscious that they were meet
ing as a body to legislate with the
Pope for the whole Church, not
merely as representatives of
their dioceses.
"This universal responsibi
lity was emphasized in the dis
cussions and I expect that a
declaration will be made at the
next session which will empha
size its importance in the or
dinary day to day life of the
Church."
It had been Intended that epis-
copal responsibility should be
discussed at the First Vatican
Council (1869-1870) but it broke
up before this could be done, he
explained.
THE ARCHBISHOP also
stressed the practical unanimi
ty with which the bishops de
cided on the use of the verna
cular in the liturgy. While em
phasizing that Latin is the lan
guage of the Western Church,
an overwhelming majority vot
ed in favor of greater use of
the vernacular in the liturgy.
They agreed that the verna
cular might be used in those
parts of the Mass which are
addressed to the faithful and in
which they participate actively,
he reported.
ALTHOUGH the council
seemed slow-moving, it was a
success, Archbishop McCann
said. It was Inevitable that in an
assembly of 2,500 who all had
the right to speak, the debates
should be protracted, he added.
The machinery of debate had
to be worked out—it was a new
experience for all the Council
Fathers—but this has been ac
hieved, he noted. The empha
sis in the procedure was on the
absolute freedom of the bishops
to express their views. When a
closure was felt to be called
for, the bishops themselves vot
ed on it, he concluded.

HANOVER, Germany (NC) A

ten that the tenor of the ecu
menical council shows that the
Roman Catholic Church is be

St. Mary’s Hospital
Construction Soon
ATHENS— Construction will
soon begin on the new five-
story St. Mary’s Hospital here.
This was announced by W. A.
Mathis, president of St. Mary's
Advisory Board.
Financing of the new building,
the estimated cost of which will
be some $3,000,000, is to be
aided by Federal funds under
the Hill-Burton Act. Other fi
nancing has been arranged
through a local fund drive of
1959, which resulted in pled
ges of $376,785. Some $261,
000 of this has already been
collected.
IN ADDITION, The Mission
ary Sisters of the Most Sacred
Heart of Jesus, who operate
the hospital, are investing $1,
500,000 from the Order’s funds.
The 17 Sisters who staff the
hospital also are contributing
some $250,000 from their Sis
ters Fund raised through their
donated services.
Of fireproof construction, the
hospital will be of reinforced
concrete frame. The exterior
walls will be made of special
precast concrete panels and
brick masonry. All rooms will
be air conditioned.
There will be 75 private
rooms and 25 semi-private
rooms. According to Mother
Wilfrida, administrator of St.
Mary’s, this arrangement of
rooms will provide more effi
cient and economical operation
of the new hospital. There will
be two five-bed intensive care
rooms for the critically ill.
All patient rooms will have
private toilets or baths.
THERE will be five operat
ing rooms and two delivery
rooms with nurseries for 30
newborn babies. Complete la
boratory and X-Ray depart
ments, with radioisotope faci
lities are included in the plans.
The Emergency Department
will be provided with all life
saving equipment. The out-pa
tient Department will be pe
diatric, pre and postnatal, den
tal, heart and geriatric climbs
as well as to supplement the
Emergency Department in dis
aster conditions.
ments. Originally plans were
for construction of a wing on
the present St. Mary’s hospital
on Milledge Avenue. A local St.
Mary’s Building Fund drive was
conducted in 1958-59. Headed
by Howell C. Erwin, the effort
resulted in pledges and con
tributions of $376,785.
IT WAS found that the new
wing would not provide the area
needed for expansion. It was
also found that additional money
could not be provided through
Hill-Burton funds or loans to
invest in the old building.
New plans developed on the
encouragement that finances
could be possible if an entirely
new St. Mary’s Hospital was
constructed. From the original
fund drive money was invested
in the 18.6 acres of land on
Baxter Street. For four years
intensive work by local citizens
and the sisters has been going
on to achieve the goal of a new
building.
"Our dream has come true
IN CATHEDRAL
through the sincere, dedicated
efforts of the people of Athens”,
Mother Wilfrida, hospital ad
ministrator, stated this week.
"The reality of our new hospi
tal could not have been possible
without the guidance and hard
work of such men as Mr. Mathis
and Mr. Erwin”, the mother
said.
EQUALLY impressed with
the efforts of local civic lead
ers was the Rev. Mother M.
Elizabeth, Provincial Supervi
sor of the Missirnary Sisters
of the Most Sacred Heart of
Jesus order from Reading,
Penn. The Rev. Mother and
her assistant Sister Antonnette
came to Atlanta for the clos
ing of negotiations with the Hill-
Burton administrators recent
ly.
Sister Renata, Mother Wil-
frida’s assistant at St. Mary’s
was also present at the final
negotiations. Sister Renata is
treasurer of the local corpora
tion operating St. Mary’s and
Mother Wilfrida is president.

Egyptian Obelisk
Mystery Solved
VATICAN errY (NC) New
light has been shed on the my
sterious Egyptian obelisk that
stands in the vast square in
front of St* Peter's basilica.
It was the light of a mid
summer sun that gave the first
clue to the solution now ad
vanced by Filippo Magi, direc
tor of excavations and archeo
logical research in Vatican
City. Margi noticed telltale-
marks of an earlier inscrip
tion and proceeded to decipher
them.
HE DISCOVERED that the
obelisk had first been erected
by a Roman prefect of Egypt,
Caius Cornelius Gallus, a poet,
solider and politician who fell
into disgrace and died by his
own hand.
The present inscription by
the Emperor Caligula was cut
into the stone after the bronze
letters of the original inscrip
tions of Gallus were removed.
Holes left by the rivets which
had attached the earlier legend
on the obelisk were what first
attracted Magi’s attention. They
also enabled him to recon
struct the original.
The earlier inscription an
nounced that the obelisk had
been erected in a place known
as Forum Julium by Gallus.
That place, unknown today, was
named after the birthplace of
Gallus in Gaul, Forum Julii,
the modern city of Frejus on
the French Riviera.
All that had been known of
the obelisk's history until now
was that it had been brought
from Egypt to Rome by the
Emperor Caligula to adorn a
Roman square and that It was
placed in its present position
in 1586 by Pope Sixtus V.
JESUIT Father J. Joseph Lynch,
professor of physics and direc
tor of the Seismic Station at
Fordham University, was nam
ed president-elect of the New
York Academy of Sciences.The
academy, with 17,000 in the U.S.
