Tensions Seen
Eased In South
CLEVELAND (NC) — Much of
the racial tensions are begin
ning to subside in the South —
with the conspicuous exception
of Alabama and Mississippi —
a Catholic leader in the struggle
for racial justice said here.
Mathew Ahmann of Chicago,
executive secretary of the
National Catholic Conference
for Interracial Justice, here
June 18-19 for a meeting of
the Religious Research As
sociation, said that the South’s
biggest change has been the
full-scale arrival of the in
dustrial revolution there.
HE ADDED that the changing
South is beginning to feel the
impact of the more or less
color - blind big corporation
employment policies.
That emerging industrial
South, he continued, also is
moving political power away
from the traditional rural areas
COUNCIL TIES
and toward the big cities.
The U. S. Supreme Court’s
recent decision for reapportion
ment of state legislatures will,
he added, hasten the movement
toward urban political control.
Ahmann said he is confident
that the new civil rights law
will not be defied as was the
U. S. Supreme Court’s 1954 de
cision against school integra
tion.
ONE REASON, he continued,
is that enforcement of the civil
rights law involves the pre
sident and his administration
politically ~ in a way that
the court's school integration
decision did not.
Compliance with the civil
rights law will come almost
automatically, he said, because
resistance to Negroes in the
South is beginning to break
down — especially in the key
areas of public accommodations
and employment.

has defended his organization
against charges by Orthodox
rabbis that it should stay out of
Catholic theological discus
sions.
In particular, said Abram,
the AJC feels it has a “pri
mary objective’’ to persuade
Christian bodies to change their
teaching of Jews as big “Christ-
killers.” He said the committee
was willing to work with offi
cials of the Vatican council to
achieve this end.
Abram said the AJC has not
entered into areas of Christian
theology, but has concerned it
self rather with the need for
good intergrou relations. He
said AJC studies in the field of
Christian theology', but has con
cerned itself rather with the

TENN. WORKSHOP
Pius X Sophomores Win Debate
NEW YORK CITY (RNS)—
A Greek Orthodox theologian
warned here that the current
dialogue between Eastern Or
thodoxy and the Roman Catholic
Church will “bring forth fruit”
only if it considers “seriously
the “great ecclesiological is
sues,” the primacy of Rome
and the Pope and a definition
of the role of bishops.
The Rev. John Meyendorff of
St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Theo
logical Seminary, Yonkers,
N.Y., told some 350 clergy and
lay delegates to the annual
meeting of the Catholic Theolo
gical Society of America that
those participating in the dia
logue must avoid “one of the
temptations of the ecumenical
age. ..to become pragmatic and
superficial.”
“MANY BELIEVE,” he said,
“that our unity can simply be
brought about by a few liturgi
cal and canonical adjustments.
But such an attitude may ulti
mately bring disillusion and
actually harm the ecuemnical
movement.”
In defining the “ecclesiolo
gical issue” which must be dis
cussed by Catholic and Orthodox
theologians, Father Meyendorff
said;
“The Apostles, spreading the
kergyma of the Resurrection,
established everywhere local
communities where Christ could
be present sacramentally among
those gathered in His Name.
“And St. Ignatius of Antioch
called each of those communi
ties the ‘Catholic Church’—
that is, a church in which the
fullness of the Undivided Body
is present, which is headed by a
bishop, image of God, and the
presbyters representing the
Apostolic college.
“THIS IS still the very foun
dation of Orthodox ecclesiology
today. The concept of ’Body of
Christ,’ is to be applied to the
sacramental, or eucharistical
aspect of the Church, to that
which makes the Church to be
the Church, and not to its nec
essary, but changeable organi
zational, administrative or jur
idical superstructure. . .
“The unity of the Church is
a divine, not a human, organi
zational unity. . .”
Father Meyendorff told the
assembled Catholic theologians
that, in Orthodoxy's view, that
“individual Churches may have
had more authority than others,
but their qualifications for such
a major authority lay in the
personality of their bishops, in
the political importance of the
cities, in the theological tradi
tion which they represented, not
in any divine institution.
“Rome, indeed, always en
joyed the first place of authori
ty among the Churches, but only
a purely Western doctrinal de
velopment could have led to the
idea that the Church of Rome is
the last resort of all issues
and the criterion of all truth.”
“In fact,” he added, “it is
the search for such a criterion,
a search for security, which
was the major mover in the de
velopment of the Medieval Pa
pacy, and it eventually led to
the definition of Papal infal
libility and immediate epis
copal jurisdiction over all the
faithful in 1870...”
IN URGING a realistic ap
proach to the dialogue, the Or
thodox scholar said; “I do not
want at all to be pessimistic.
We have — Roman Catholics
and Orthodox — a millennium
of common tradition and as
soon as we refer to it, we
begin to understand each other.
“The momentous reign of
Pope John XXIII, his under
standing of some of the major
ANSWER TO
LAST WEEK’S PUZZLE
issues, his desire to counter- made,
balance — somehow — the de
cisions of Vatican I, and also
the memorable meeting be
tween Pope Paul and Patriarch
Athenagoras change the whole
atmosphere of our relations.
But these events are to be In
terpreted theologically, in their
true spiritual, and not only
emotional, dimension.”
Father Meyendorff said that
during the Holy Land meeting
Pope Paul projected an image
similar to the traditional view
of Orthodox on the Bishop of
Rome.
“If nothing of it remains, it
is probably better to avoid any
doctrinal decision, and wait for
further results of our present
day search for the true mean
ing of the words ‘primacy’ and
'episcopacy' in the church.”
Father Meyendorff said “great
harm” could result if the Coun
cil were to define episcopal
‘collegiality* in a manner which
“would simply envisage the uni
versal episcopate as a consul
tative body around the Pope.”
“FOR US Orthodox the broth
erly meeting of Jerusalem
means, first of all, that the
Pope, for the first time in cen
turies accepted to be seen by all
as an equal of the other bis
hops, that is to give of himself
an image which comes closer to
the idea that we traditionally
have of the Bishop of Rome:
that of the elder brother.
“If this image is somehow
preserved in the decisions of
the (Second Vatican) Council,
a great step forward will be
DUTCH CARDINAL
THE ORTHODOX view would
be “undermined” by such a
finding, he held. It holds the
“historical and theological ori
gin and foundation of the epos-
copate as the body of those who
in each place preside over the
Catholic Church , that is, the
Church in its sacramental full
ness. . .
“It is a theology of the local
church -- ‘local’ being under
stood in its sacramental, more
than geographical sense—which
would help further understand
ing between us, not simply a
concept of ‘collegiality’ on the
universal scale.”
Cautions About
Intercommunion
LAREN, the Netherlands
(RNS)— Bernard Cardinal Al-
frlnk, Archbishop of Utrecht,
hailed here the “great gains”
being made in the ecumenical
movement, but warned of the
“lack of reality in some ex
periments • in intercommunion.
The cardinal addressed a
meeting of the St. Adelbert
Society, made of up leading
Catholic priests and laymen.
HE EXPLAINED that his
warning involving intercom
munion had been prompted
by so-called “agape” meals in
which Catholics had taken part
with Protestants.
Cardinal Alfrlnk said he
could appreciate that such
meals helped to strengthen a
community spirit, but he stre
ssed there was a danger in
serving bread and wine at them
because this suggested “a unity
of faith which does not exist.”
“EVERY theological activity
demands a great spirit of love
for all fellow Christians,” he
said, “but also a sound theo
logical background.”
In speaking of ecumenical
gains, the cardinal said the time
had passed “when we should be
grumbling about old grie
vances.”
“Nor,” he added, “is It of
any use to have sterile de
bates about guilt. Both sides
must confess their guilt and
strive for unity.”’
“WE HAVE a long way to go,”
he continued, “but it is heart
ening to see that Christians
of different denominations have
begun to appreciate one another.
Catholics have realized that the
Christians of the Reforma
tion have preserved certain
turths neglected in their own
Church. We can learn from
each other,
“The reunion of Christians
should, however, never be a
matter of giving and taking.
What we want is a fuller sight
of the totality of truth. We
must not strive after some ge
neral Christianity pleasing
everybody. That would lead to
indifferentism.
“We must strive after the un
ity Christ willed. There is no
sense in partaking in each
other’s sacraments when there
is not unity of faith.”
