END DIVISIONS Cardinal Urges Catholics, Orthodox To Unity Work SI RANGE BUT TRU ittle-Known Facts for Catholics E NEWTON, Mass. (RNS) — Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy ’.\ere urged here to end the division that has se parated them for nine centuries. Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston, made the appeal in an address before the Boston College Theological Colloquium marking the Jesuit university's 100th anniversary. His plea was heard by many Protestant and Orthodox theolo gians in the audience. HE CALLED for “serious efforts" by Roman Catholics for unity with the Orthodox, and asked forgiveness for Catholi cism's role in the events which led to the schism between East and West. In an hour-long lecture Car dinal Cushing urged a greater interest in the history' of the "separated Churches," with added emphasis on the careful translation of Eastern writings into various writings, includ ing, English, Russian and Mo dern Greek. "That work must be extended and widened," the prelate said. "There is need of post-gradu ate scholars; there is need of fellowships which will enable men of ability to devote them selves to the study of the hist ory and the traditions of our Churches. And so 1 venture to speak a word of encouragement to all our Catholic universities and colleges — indeed to all universities and colleges and to ask them if it would be possible for them to do even more in the realm of scholar ship by' w hich the objective hist orical truth can appear more Dictating/Tr mu rifeing Machine featuring lifetime magnetic tape with automatic loading .oolv $249 50 HYNES COMPANY 17 * (VMiftHAll iiftttl S <7 AHANF4 OeOROlA PHONI - SIS 6417 clearly and be more widely known and appreciated." CARDINAL Cushing said Cat holics "must roll up our sleeves and work...to build a bridge be tween East and West." He reminded the conference that the Orthodox object to the terminology sometimes used in connection with unity proposals. He cited such references as "the Orthodox must be led back; must 'submit’ and must 'return to obedience.’ " Roman Catholics, he said, must now approach the Ortho dox "to ask forgiveness and to come with us to lay together our gifts upon God’s altar.” THE prelate added: "Many advantages would come from reconciliation with our Orthodox brethern, the happiness of friendship and trust instead of the misery of hostility and suspicion. Un believers would no longer be able to mock and jibe that Christians preach charity and unity but practice division and dissension. Apostolic work would be aided by coordinated and combined efforts. The glory of the Church would shine more conspicuously through the manifestation of its unity amid diversity. "But all these things are sec ondary to the love of Christ. It is for His sake, not for ours, that we seek unity. "The Churches of the East and the West are living in a new situation and are facing new problems. We are all well aware of it. There is need to put the timeless and unchangeable Ch ristian message into forms and language capable of Influencing the men of our time. There is need of adaptation — and we all agree on this. "But adaptation to new sit uations and new experiences can only be the evolution of what the Church already possess. Her expression of the faith grows throughout the centuries, but remains none other than that which her Founder wills to have and to develop: how could it be otherwise, since it is He who In a true sense pre aches and sanctifies Himself in His faith?

We need freshness, the vitality and the strength that can come to us from the Fat hers of the Church, both East ern and Western, for they, like us, faced new problems and met them, making the Christian truth understandable and at tractive to the men of their time. At our peril do we neglect that vital and powerful tradition of Christianity which enabled the Church in the early centuries to meet the most formidable assaults and to enable humility to conquer the pride of this world." A major portion of the lecture dealt with the role of Sacred Scripture in unity proposals. Cardinal Cushing noted that the Scripture has been an important part in ecumenical discussion among Protestants and Cat holics. THE 200 cholars partici pating in the conference in cluded Father Hans Kueng, Swiss- born theologian from Germany who lectured earlier at the Jesuit university. His lecture then was given in the presence of Cardinal Cushing and Orthodox Metropolitan At- henagoras of Canada. Cardinal Cushing predicted that many grievances expressed by Catholics of the Eastern Rite in union with Rome would be settled by the Second Vatican Council. Among the complaints he recalled were those of Pat riarch Maximos IV and the Greek Melkite hierarchy: "1. The Oriental patriarchs are made inferior to cardinals, which Is a failure to recognize the traditional setup of the Ch urch. ”2. Converts in the East are allowed to choose either the Oriental or the Latin Rite. In the West, Am erica for example, they are allowed only into the Latin Rite. They say this is, in effect, an attempt to suffo cate the Oriental Rites. ”3. The permission granted — only after the intervention of Pope John XXIII to use Eng lish, or a modern language, in rites of Oriental origin, is restricted in a way which is unliturglcal, that is, the use of the vernacular Is limited in a way which makes the rite a hodge-podge. Some must be in the ancient language, and there Is a mixture of the anc ient language and the modern language which is quite unjust ified. ”4. The faculties granted to Eastern patriarchs are merely the same as those granted to Latin archbishops, and this is a failure to recognize the trad itions of the East. ”5. The Roman Curia wants a Latin patriarch of Jerusalem. But this is an insult to the Orientals. "6. In general, the compla int is made in different forms that the Curia and specifically in the new code for the Ori entals favors Latinizations, contrary to the promises of many Popes."

IN NEW ERA ef&A*a vfgUs a (30 s IS THAT MADE IN THE 4.™ CENTURY BY ST EUSEBIUS, WHO WROTE IT WHEN HELD IN PRISON WITHOUT Rood or New Encyclical Outlines 6 Order’ NEW YORK (NC) —Father John Courtney Murray, S.J., believes the significance of Pope John XXIII’s new peace encyclical is that it outlines an "order" for the "new era of history....that is clearly with us." The "order" envisaged in Pope John's encyclical, Father Murray writes in America magazine, (April 27), is one based on freedom. "THE WHOLE burden of the encyclical is that the order for which the postmodern world is looking cannot be an order that is imposed by force, or sustained by coercion, or based on fear," he says. "The summation of the Pope’s thought is in the sentence which asserts that all order, If it is to be qualified as re asonable and human, must be ’founded on truth, built accord ing to justice, vivified and in tegrated by charity, and put in to practice in freedom’," he says. Father Murray, a professor at Woodstock (Md.) College, is a specialist in Church-State questions. He was recently named an expert for the se cond session of the ecumenical council. HE SAYS of the encyclical Pacem In Terris that it con tains "not the slightest note of nostalgia, nor of lament over the past course of history or over the current situation that hist ory has evoked here on earth." "The Pope confronts all the facts of political, social, econo mic and cultural change that have been the product of the modern era," he says. Discussing the distinction made by Pope John between "historical movements" with specific economic, social, cul tural, or political ends, and the "false philosophical teachings" which may originally have ani mated such movements, he ex presses the belief that the Pope is referring to the continental brand of socialism although the distinction "perhaps....has so me relevance to the whole Marxist movement." "IN ANY case," he says, "I should think that the dist inction may be given full ap plication in regard of the 18th and 19th century movements toward political freedom." Viewed in this way, he says, Pope John's distinction "dis solves the whole problematic of Leo XIII, whose great conflict was with continental, sectarian liberalism." FATHER Murray says the en cyclical "shows no disposition to come to terms, in some man ner of false peace, with the doctrinal content" of com munism. But at the same time, he adds, "there may be some warrant for the thought that the spirit of confident hope which the Pon tiff courageously embraces fails to take realistic account of the fundamental schism in the world today." He says the Pope's message appears to be that "we must not ...feel ourselves to be trap ped in history, unable to control world events.

NCCJ Head Hails Encyclical ATLANTA. GEORGIA NEW YORK (RNS) — Pope John XXIII's new encyclical, Pacem in Terris, was hailed here as a timely "masterpiece" of far - reaching significance by Dr. Lewis Webster Jones, president of the National Con ference of Christians and Jews. He said the Conference "joins with all men of goodwill in gratitude" for this pronoun- which "will be widely under stood as an emphatic rebuke to all isolationsists, narrow nat ionalists, racists and thosewho rely upon mass retaliation." DR. JONES said the encycli cal was "very encouraging to the NCCJ, which has long been engaged in activities based up on the same principles which underlie Pope John's message to the world." Noting that the timing of the encyclical — coinciding with the Christian and Jewish holy days — "makes it doubly effective," he said it "will be a stimulus and resource for dialogue gro ups, ours and others across the nation, and will give added im petus to our project on Re ligious Freedom and Pulbic Af fairs." The NCCJ project, initiated in 1961, is designed to raise the general level of public un derstanding and discussion on issues of public concern about which religious groups differ. Dominican Arrested CAMBRIDGE, Md., (NC)—A 34 year-old Dominican priest is among 37 persons who will go before a Maryland Circuit Court after being arrested here following demonstrations over racial discrimination.

FATHER Burns and the 36 others were charged with dis orderly conduct and assaulting a-police officer. After spending most of Palm Sunday in the county jail, they were released that day when bond was posted for them. In a hearing in Magistrates Court (April 11), the group re quested a jury trial and was scheduled to appear before the Circuit Court April 29.

COMPREHENSIVE World’s Fair To Feature Religious Representation Scheduled to open just one year from now, the New York World’s Fair of 1964-65 will have a religious representation unsurpassed since the first in ternational fair was held in London, England, in 1851. The 1939 World’s Fair in New York had a Temple of Religion, a joint Protestant, Ro man Catholic and Jewish pro ject which provided visitors with a quiet place of retreat and meditation. The World’s Fair at Brussels in 1958 feat ured a Vatican Pavilion and a Protestant Pavilion. The Sea ttle (Wash.) World’s Fair last year included a Protestant- sponsored Christian Witness Pavilion. RELIGIOUS representation will be much more comprehens ive when the long-planned World Fair opens at Flushing Meadows in April, 1964, with close to 50 countries taking part, according to current estimates. The New York pair will al so have a Vatican and a Pro testant Pavilion. But in addition there will be a Billy Graham Pavilion and a Christian Scien tist one, as well as an exhibit constructed and sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon). It had been expected that there would also be a Jewish pavi lion at the Fair. Negotiations had even been begun to ex hibit there Dead Sea Scrolls currently housed in the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. HOWEVER, it was announced that plans for the pavilion had been dropped by the Synagogue Council of America, and agency representing six Jewish re ligious bodies. Reason givenfor the decision was the difficulty of embarking on a campaign to raise the $1,000,000 needed for the project in view of educati onal and other pressing com munity needs. Michelangelo’s great work would be "the greatest single attraction at the Fair." In a message on the occasion of the groundbreaking ceremony for the Vatican Pavilion, Pope John said the Fair "will bear test imony to what the genius and labors of men have been able to accomplish for the progress of civilization." Also, the pontiff added, it will contribute, "without doubt, to the solidarity of people and to their fruitful elaboration for the welfare of humanity." GROUNDBREAKING cere monies were held last Novem ber for the 76,000 square feet Protestant Pavilion, which is being sponsored by the Pro testant Council of the City of New York at a cost of $1, 500,000. v Presiding at the event was Dr. Arthur L. Kinsolving, the Council's president and rector of St. James' Episcopal church. The major speaker on the oc casion was Robert Moses, pre sident of the World's Fair, who commented on the fact that the Soviet Union had abandoned plans to be represented at the Fair. Remarking that with the Com munists pulling out, there was more room available for reli gious exhibits, he added: "We have more space available for our own ideologies, and into this space the ‘Saints Have Come Marching In." The Protestant Pavilion will have at its theme: "Jesus Ch rist— the Light of the World." It will feature an illuminated cross, a Court of Protestant Pioneers, a theater showing a new wide-screen film on the Gospel, a children’s center and a music garden. Also In the pavilion will be exhibits spon sored by, major Protestant de nominations and related organi zations. hopeful," he said, "that our pavilion will make some small contribution in helping the world to choose God and Peace." The pavilion sponsored by the Mother Church, The First Ch urch of Christ Scientist in Bos ton, Mass., will be built on a 3,800 square foot area and will rise 35 feet in the form of a seven-pointed star. The build ing, set in a pool of water 100 feet in diameter, will be surrounded by 14 Illuminated fountains. Topping the aluminum and glass pavilion will be a trans parent dome throwing light thr oughout the interior. Next to the main exhibition hall will be a smaller building serving as a reading room and office space. THE MORMON Pavilion, for which ground was broken in March, is being erected on a 50,000 square foot plot. It will feature a 127-foot spire, flank ed by two smaller towers, re plicas of the east spire of the famed Mormon Temple In Salt Lake Citu, where the Church has its international headquarters. The main tower will be top ped by a gilded statue of the Angel Moroni. Behind and flank ing the two smaller towers will be twin halls which will exhibit displays of the Church’s work around the world. In ad dition, two theaters, each seat ing about 350 persons, will show films dealing with Mormonism, Theme of the pavilion is "Man’s Search for Happiness." THE WORLD’S Fair will open April 22, 1964 and run to the following Oct. 18. It will resume on April 21, 1965 and continue until Oct. 17. The Un isphere, a 13-story globe of stainless steel will symbolize Peace through understanding. Participating in the Fair will be many new African nations and Latin American countries. This week witnessed the breaking of ground for the Billy Graham Pavilion, designed by Edward Durell Stone, one of the world’s leading architects, and housing an air-conditioned the- ater-in-the-round with a seat ing capacity of about 600. The ceremony took place a day after Francis Cardinal Spellman, Archbishop of New York, visited die World’s Fair site along with some 40 priests from dioceses along the Eas tern seaboard, Attending a luncheon with Fair officials, he announced that collections would be taken up in Catholic churches around the country to finance the Vatican Pavilion, which will cost approximately $2,000,000. THE CARDINAL also an nounced that in addition to hous ing Michelangelo's famed "Pie- ta" — which is being brought on loan from St. Peter’s Basi lica in Rome with the approval of Pope John XXIII — the pavi lion will have on display a re plica of the excavations carri ed on under Catholicism’s great mother church. Pope John last November pressed a switch in the Vatican that sent a signal starting pile - driving operations for the Vat ican Pavilion. Located on an oval-shaped plot of land mea suring 50,000 square feet, it will be surmounted by a lan tern and a cross. The struc ture will rise to about 100 feet and measure 208 feet In length and 135 feet in width. It will have a chapel, where Masses will be offered daily. TWO LUTHERAN bodies have leased 800 square feet of floor space in the pavilion. They are the Lutheran Church in Ameri ca's New Youk Synod and the Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod’s Atlantic District. Meanwhile, representatives of the American Lutheran Church pledged cooperation in the Lut heran exhibit. Expressing hope that the denomination would contribute financially, they said specific plans for the design and content of the exhibit, would be announced later. The Billy Graham Pavilion will occupy about 25,000 square feet of space near the main entrance to the Fair grounds. An evangelistic motion picture will be shown in the pavilion during part of each hour, and trained counselors will be on hand to talk with persons who have seen the film and other visitors to the pavilion. ACCORDING to Dr. Graham, the Fair will provide an un paralleled opportunity for the Christian faith to present its message of peace and hope to millions of people of all races and cultures. "We are While the Fair will mirror the great changes of science and technology, many museums, galleries, universities and hist orical organizations will coope rate in assembling displays of great cultural Interest. It is estimated that 40,000,000 persons will visit the Fair in 1964 and 30,000,000 in 1965. Leroy's Auto Service Tune Up - Front End Alignment Automatic Transmission 4011 P*tree Rd.

However, the cardinal said the credit belonged Instead to the Pope, who was "delighted" to do it for two reasons: because millions could see the master piece of religious art who or dinarily could not go to Rome, and as a way of showing his gratitude "for all that Ameri ca has done for the poor people of the world."
