PRELATE ASSERTS 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.

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. Council Showed Dialogue Need HANOVER, Germany (NC) A Protestant theologian has writ ten that the tenor of the ecu menical council shows that the Roman Catholic Church is be ginning to realize that "dialo gue (with non-Catholics) is es sential’’. 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.
