Guzzula Subbarso
Youth 'Adopted'
By Hill Family
Of Fayetteville
A 14-year-old boy, Guzzula Sub
barso of India, was recently
“adopted” by Capt. and Mrs. Don
A. Hill of Fayetteville, North
Carolina.
The Hills, who have four chil
dren of their own, decided they
would like to share their good for
tune as Americans with a less for
tunate child. They also think it
“will be a good way for our chil
dren to learn to share, and gain a
better understanding of children
that do not have as much as they.”
Guzzula will not leave India, but
the aid he receives, and the knowl
edge that someone is really in
terested in him, will truly make
him feel he is a member of the
Hill family.
Guzzula is being taken care of
by the Hills through the Foster
Parents Mission Club of Detroit,
Michigan by the PIME Mission
arie.
The Foster Parents Mission
Club (FPMC) was formed in 1958
by five Detroit area women who
had heard about the sad plight
of nearly 300 orphans in Keng
tung, Burma. The orphanage in
which they lived was very badly
hit by storms: the crops were
ruined, the buildings damaged be
yond repair. The PIME Mission
aries, who operate the orphanage,
had no money to rebuild . . .
could only provide two skimpy
meals a day per child.
Five dollars per month feeds,
clothes and educates an “adopted”
child for a full month, in the mis
sions. An additional $5 per year
($65 in all) helps the Committee
pay for adoption certificates, pho
tos, stationery, postage, etc. Each
family receives a snapshot of his
or her child plus a brief history on
his background.
Anyone interested in “adopting”
a child through this plan is in
vited to write: Foster Parents
Mission Club, 121 East Boston
Blvd., Detroit, Michigan 48202.

stated here by Augustin Cardinal
Bea, head of the Vatican’s Secre
tariat for Christian Unity.
Cardinal Bea made his observa
tion in an interview with Winston
Burdett, for the Columbia Broad
casting System.
wnai nas Deen wruien aoum
the supposed yielding of Pope Paul
VI and of his departure from the
line and the proposals of Pope
John is . . . out of place,” said
Cardinal Bea.
“Pope Paul VI is undoubtedly
proceeding in quite a personal
manner, but at the same time he
is keeping consistently and vigor
ously to Pope John’s program,
which he made his own from the
moment of his first radio message
less than 24 hours after his eleva
tion to the pontificate.”
CARDINAL BEA said Pope
Paul has emphasized even more
strongly than Pope John that the
goal of Christian unity constitutes
one of the four principle aims of
the Vatican council.
The present Pope, he said, has
“cultivated a vivacious and vigor
ous personal activity” in the area
of meetings with non-Catholic
Christians. As examples of this,
the Cardinal called attention to
the Pope’s January meeting with
Greek Orthodox Patriarch Athen
agoras and his decision to return
a relic of the Apostle St. Andrew
to the Orthodox church in Patras
in Greece.
Responding to a number of
questions, Cardinal Bea declined
to predict whether the work of
the council could be concluded in
the session that begins in Septem
ber. He did say that he expected
“important things” from the up
coming session. Among them, he
named statements on the Church,
the bishops, revelation and ecu
menism.
The text of the CBS interview
follows:
QUESTION:
Your Eminence, you once said
that the obstacles to Christian
unity were very vast, of a kind re
quiring the faith that moves moun
tains. Do you feel that any moun
tains have been moved yet? How
would you measure the progress
that has thus far been made?
REPLY:
Certainly mountains have been
moved in recent years. Even be
fore the pilgrimage of Pope Paul
VI, I had said that what had oc
curred since the announcement of
the council surpassed the brightest
hopes we could have entertained
beforehand. This is even more
true after the pilgrimage and es
pecially after the Holy Father’s
meeting with the Patriarch Athen
agoras and the other Oriental Pa
triarchs.
How can the progress of these
years be measured? Perhaps it
can be said that in comparison
with past centuries the events of
these latter years constitute im
mense progress. But when com
pared with the tasks which still
lie ahead of us, they constitute, on
the contrary, a mere beginning; a
very important and promising be
ginning, but nevertheless only a
beginning.
QUESTION:
In view of the quickened pace
of development in the past year,
would you care to revise your
earlier estimates of the time that
will be needed to achieve the goal
of Christian unity?
REPLY:
I should certainly be willing to
do so, but we must bear in mind
that in this field, also as in many
others, surprises are to be ex
pected, unforeseen obstacles and
slowing-down. Faith offers the best
solution here. It teaches us that
on the one hand we must not har
bor any illusions and that the
working of Christ’s grace requires
human cooperation which in its
turn requires time.
On the other hand, if Christ has
asked us to have a faith capable
of moving mountains, He author
izes us to ask of God and to hope
for miracles of grace. All the more
so since Christ himself so ardently
desires unity and since mankind
today has great need of it in order
that God’s design upon men may
be realized and that they may find
unity in Christ.
QUESTION:
What are your expectations for
the coming session of the Ecu
menical Council?
REPLY:
I expect important things. This
session is called partly to collect
under several headings the fruit of
the labors of the two preceding
sessions. For example, in regard
to the fundamental drafts dealing
with the Church, with the bishops,
with Divine Revelation, with ecu
menism. Together with the an
nexed declarations moreover, it
has still to face other important
documents, as, for example, drafts
on the collaboration of the Cath
oic laity in the apostolate of the
hierarchical church, on the mis
sions, on the training of the cler
gy, on the Religious orders and
congregations, etc.

VISITORS SAY CHURCH REAL MOTHER'
WASHINGTON — (NC) — The U.S. Catholic Church strJ
two East African visitors as a “real mother who cares about u
children,” they told government and other officials at a lunches
here.
Mrs. Kevina Tyaba, 29-year-old leader of women’s organization
in Uganda, and Miss Donata Luka, 28-year-old secondary schoil
teacher in Nyasaland, also asked that U.S. groups which befriende!
them during a three-month visit send volunteers to “help us
what we have learned.”
The two ended a tour of the country at the luncheon (July «
They were sponsored by the United Nations Educational, Scientffl
and Cultural Organization and the World Union of Catholic Wometf
Organizations.
Their trip was arranged by the National Council of Cathol*
Women.
Of Catholicism, they said: “The Church is a real mother wkt
cares about her children, who builds them parochial schools, pr»
serves family life through the establishment of family organizatioi
and movements, re-educates delinquents for a useful life and wort
with non-Catholics in solving mutual problems.”
sible for the council to complete
its work this year?
REPLY:
I believe it is impossible to
make a forecast. Certainly every
thing must be done to ensure that
the work proceed with all free
dom but at the same time as
speedily as possible. On the other
hand, no official declaration has
been made so far which would ex
clude the possibility of a fourth
session.
