Pope Proves Hard To Characterize

By LOUIS CASSELS United Preu International Pope Paul VI is proving to be very hard to characterize. Is he a progressive or a conservative? Is he committed to reform and reunion, like Pope John XXIII? Or is he preoccupied with the problems of Italian politics and international diplomacy, like Pope Pius XII? When Paul VI ascended the papal throne last June, he was

regarded as the chosen heir of John XXIII. In fact, it was widely predicted that he would be even more progressive, and even more devoted to ’ the cause of Christian unity, than his predecessor. This prediction seemed to be amply justified by his record. As Cardinal Montini, he had been a leader of the progressive forces in the first session of the Vatican Ecumenical Council.

The first widespread questions about the new Pope's course arose during the council’s second session last fall. Pope Paul declined to support the progressives in their attempt to get an immediate vote on a declaration in favor of religious liberty and a statement exculpating the Jewish people of the crucifixion of Christ. Progressives Disappointed Council progressives also were disappointed by what they regarded as the Pope’s failure to throw his full weight behind a document spelling out the socalled “Doctrine of Collegiality,” which holds that all bishops share with the Pope in the exercise of supreme authority in the church. Reports sped through the council that conservative leaders of the Roman Curia had succeeded in persuading the Pope that Italy was on the brink of going Communist, and that he could avert this disaster only by de-emphasizing the idea that the Catholic Church

needed reforming. These reports have never been confirmed, and many Vatican observers have always felt that they were gross exaggerations, at best. But they are likely to be revived by Pope Paul’s first encyclical, which was issued this week. A large portion of the 12,000word encyclical was devoted to a blistering denunciation of Communism. It was clearly intended to strengthen anti-Com-munist parties in Italy, and to close the “opening to the left” attributed to John XXIII. The encyclical also laid heavy stress on papal supremacy as an essential concept which the Catholic Church can never compromise for the sake of Christian unity. Two Conclusions Possible By adding fact to rumor, and mixing in a dash of speculation, it would be quite possible to arrive at the conclusion that Pope Paul has gone over to the conservative side and is no longer bent on carrying out the

program of John XXIII. But this conslusion would not necessarily be true. For there are other facts which need to be considered. One is the agenda for the third session of the Vatican Council beginning Sept. 14. It is headed by the “collegiality” document—and those who have read it, in the form it will be voted upon, say that it is as forthright as any progressive could desire. Close behind it on the agenda are declarations on feligious liberty and the Jews. One set of facts seems to contradict the other. Perhaps the most judicious conclusion that can be reached at this point is that it is too early in his pontificate to pin any kind of label on the brilliant, complex man who is Paul VI. 0 i Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee o 0 Q. We have a certain guest in our home from time to time who persists in telling off-color jokes. What can we do about this? A. If your failure to respond or laugh does not prove enough to stop him, then you have a perfect right to take him aside and tell him that his kind of stories are not acceptable in your home. And incidentally, if this guest persists in offending you the way he seems to do, why do, you keep inviting him to your home? Q. I’ve been critized for my habit of reading at the table when I'm dining alone in a restaurant How about this? A. Your critics are wrong. Any person is in perfect right to read at the table — when, of course, he is dining alone. Q. Is it the duty of the brideelect to buy the dresses and accessories for her bridesmaids? A. No. She selects the designs and material, but the attendants must pay for their own outfits. Q. When you haye entertained an out-of-town guest and. have received a “bread-and-butter” letter of thanks from her, is it necessary to reply to this letter? A. This would be far better than ignoring the letter. Your guest will certainly appreciate learning that you, too, enjoyed her visit, and that you are looking forward to seeing her again. Q, When a finger bowl is provided at a formal dinner, does one put both hands into the bowl at the same time? A. No. Dip just the FINGERS of ONE hand into the bowl ata time. 4. ■ • ai GIFT PAKS » COMMUNITY* The Pint it Silverplate I FOR GIFT-GIVERS I 1 FOR HOSTESSES M Now lovely Community comes in popular priced Gift Paks.
