TWO FOR ONE Two things of importance I desire to dwell on in this my valedictory. One, nalurally, is my expression of gratitude, a deep and abiding one, lo my fellow officers in lhe Grand Lodge this year. Sincerely and significantly, I have only praise for their cooperation, their spirit of service beyond the usual call of duty, and their willingness lo go the second mile. My thanks also go to the office and administrative staffs in the Grand Lodge withoui whose unselfish cooperation and devotion to duty, the ed. ministralive reforms we have lnstituted could not have been fully carried out. We could have been less effective were lheir cooperaiion found wanling. And, importantly, my thanks go io the rank and file of Masonry in the Philippines and abroad within our grand iurisdiction who willingly imple- mented our suggeslions and direclives, ihe better for us, individual mem. berc, our lodges and our Grand Lodge, lo grow in sfature in the eyes of Masonry elsewhere in the world. My nexl thought has lo do wiih the welcome news ihat the Vatican has eased the ban on Catholics becoming Masons. Elsewhere in this issue is a spread of several pages on this importanl development in Church- Masonry relationship. As a maller of facl, the changed attitude of the Church puts an end lo cenluries-old rancour againsi our ancienl and honor- able fraternity. ln effecl, this aititude of the Church is a turning around in subsiance, though nol necessarily in form. fhe Canon Law was not actually repealed or amended; but the spirit of the recenl Vatican announcemeni has all bul wiped out in lhe books excommunication for Catholics who ioin Masonry. It looks more like the idea, "Go ahead, everything is all right, anyway." It is a good rhing that the Vatican announcement came on the heels of e growing interest in ecumenism especially on lhe part of the Catholics. While there is a line between ecumenism in religion and ecumenism in fraiernal relalion, there is hardly any of it now that the Vatican has spoken. However, we should not expecl loo much loo soon from lhe other side ecumenism-wise. For us Masons, who are the original ecumenisls from centuries back, the matter is so simple. But they who are nol used to it should be allowed to feel their way around. It is said thar the durian is a noxious and odoriferous fruit and many people shy away from ii for as long as they care. Perhaps, afler years of this impression, one suddenly decides to try it anyway and then, from the Turn to page 38 APRil., t968 I tdetouat;

THE JO.DE.RAS CONFERENCE The week before we Masons gather in Manila for the annual communi' cation from April 23-25, the Jo-De.Ras will meet in Baguio from April 18-21 for iheir first annual conference. The communicaiion will be attended by Masons and the Jo-De-Ras conference will be attended by young people with Masonic heritage. The Jo-De-Ras is nol a new Order appended to Masonry like the lnter- national Order of Rainbow for Girls, or lhe lnternational Order of Job's Daughfers, or the Order of DeMolay. The way we undersland ii, it does nol replace any or all of these Orders, so dear as lhese Orders are already to Masons and Eastern Stars who have worked so hard lo get them going. With the sacrificial and untiring efforts of Masons and Easlern Stars, there ars now in lhe Philippines seven chapters of DeMolay, lhree assemblies of Rainbow and three bethels of Job's Daughters. Somewhere along the way, lhe way of progress and developmenl, lhe boys and girls of these existing Orders ihought it wise to ioin lheir efforts in locating their places and functions in a program of communiiy develop ment. They met and talked about what the older generalion has been saying aboul them being a pain in the neck especially during vacalion time. They decided rhar ii was time for ihem to prove that young people are nol as bad as they are piclured; ihar they are nol all trouble.making persons; that given ihe chance, lhey can do better than iust loaf, play and get into trouble. Hence, the young people of the three Orders decided lo meet as a larger group and find ways and means by which they can help their com' muniiies. They call lhemselves the Jo-De-Ras, a convenient combination of names, queer-sounding and without much significance. Their plan how. ever is big and significant. We are not preiudging them. lf rhey are sin. cere in their aims and obiectives, they can succeed. We will wair and see. We are reminded thai this is the first lime our young people are trying e program of rhis type. lf in our way of thinking, lheir proiect does nol rale our flnancial or moral supporl, the mosl we can give them is lolerance. We have it on good aulhority however, that many lodges, individual Masons as well as Easlern Slars are giving subsiantially to their fund for carrying out a successful conference. These Lodges and individuals have the right attitude. May lhere be more of them. lf these young people can have a successful conference lhis year, we would even go farther and say that this conference should be an annual evenl. They should look forward to more conferences, making each con' ference better than the last. They should subiugate their personal ambi' tions to the bigger obiective of making young people do things better than they are presumed to do. Confidence in them will make them confident in themselves. A

Stefano Schmidt' $.-|., Your Eminence's Secretary. The Grand Lodge of Free ond Accepted Masons of the Philippines is most desirous of establishing harmonious relations with the Roman Catholic Church and toward this end rvould appreciate a reexamination of the attitude of the Roman Catholic Church to Masonry in our jurisdiction. We believe that the rvorld urgently requires the cooperative efforts of all people who be- lieve in one Gocl Almighty, Father of all men, Maker of heaven and earth, antl that in the furtherance of His will, we must find bases for bridging the hiatus rvhich nou' exists between the Roman Catholic Church and Freemasonrf irt our jurisdiction. I am the Grancl Master of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Nlasons ,of the Philippines, and as such I am the supreme authority over and speak for all .eg,rii. Masons in this jurisdiction. Our Grand Lodge was foundetl in 1912. Orrr jrrrisdiction covers the Philippine Archipelago. Okinau'a, Guarn, The Cabletow arl(l three Lodges in Japan 12+ Lodges in all. Over 98f o of our nreurbers are Christians. My term -of office will end on April 25, 1963, but f ca, zrssure vou that my successors are in full accord with the position I have taken. \\'e are governed by a constitution, a copy of which is enclosed. We are in iraternal relationship u'ith approximately ninety-five Grand Lodges through- out the rvorld, none of lvhich has sovereignty oler the other. I have furnish- ecl vou copies of literature lvhich show a list of regular N,Iasonic Lodges oi u'hich the Grand Lodge of the Philippines is one. we do not recogniie an1' group of Masons who do not adhere to the same principles that rve do : ( 1 .r lrliei in God; (2) belief in the future existence; (3) the obligation taken b1' anr' \Iason must be. on or in full view of the Holy Bible, to which we refer as the \-olume of tfie Sacred Law; and (4) there shall te no discussion ot religion arrd politics in a Lodge. (Please see our Constitution, pp. rzo-l2l.t These principles have been followed by' our Grand I-odge since its establish- ment. Our org:nization is not a secret societl'. It is a corporation duly or- ganizecl and registered (with the Securities and Exchange Commission, an agerlcl of the Philippine Governnrent) as a fraternal and charitable corpora- tion in accordance with Philippine laws. our members are obliged to abidc bv the larvs of the countrv in which they reside, and our Grand Lodge abides lrv the larvs of the Republic of the Philippines. our proceedings are printed in the English language; a copy of the 7962 editior. is enclosed. Although Masonry is not a religion, its rnernbers are encouraged to fol- lou' a religiotrs life. Manv of our officers and members are Christian bishops and clergl'men, e.0., our Senior Grand Warden is a Minister in the Nlethodist Church and our Grand Chaplain is a Bishop in the United Church of Christ. Ilver-v xlason is urged to attend regularly a church of his own choosing. Last Year we irraugurated a program to have all Lodges engage in intercessorv pra)'ers. These Lodges are enjoined to ask the l.nembers of their families ancl their friends in the community regardless of their church membership to irn- plore the aid of God to use His healing po\&'ers for sick persons who r,r.ant us to pray for them. we do not enquire, nor are we concerned with a man's religion; rve are not a religious organization. In this respect we do not difler from the vast rnajority of fraternal, professional and civic organizations. Ilaso,ry stands for faith, hope, and charitv. It holds that strength is obtairterl through belief in Gocl and through being in harmonious relation- ship u'ith fellos'rnen. It teaches temperance. fortitude, prudence. and jus- tice. \\'e are engaged in our Grand l.,odge iu nurnerous prc,grams of charitl' and social welfare. For over thirtv years we have maintained the Masonic Hospital for Crippled Children in Manila where we admit patients regarrl- less of creed. Approximately B5l" of the children admitted come from Ro- rnan Catholic families. The only condition of admission is that they cannot afforcl to go to private hospitals. This charity is entirely supported by Ma- sons. Every Lodge in our jurisdiction is supposed to engage in charitable rvork in the community and to carry on a program ,of education and public service. Another one of our programs is to distribute books to the poor children of the Philippines. over two million books are being collected bv the Masons in America for our distribution in the Philippines. Turn lo n.xl p.g.

APnt[, t968 9 We are not against the Roman Catholic Church or any other church. We do not contradict or deny anything in the Catholic religion. We stand for the principle of the brotherhood of men under the Fatherhood of God. lVe have for many years experienced difficulties in our relationship rvith Roman Catholic priests in the Philippines. (1) X{asons have been refused burial in Catholic ceureteries even where it was the only cemetery in the area. (2) Families and friends of Masons have been instructed not to attend our public meetings. (3) Wheie a Mason ir married to a Roman Catholic, various difficulties arise: (a) lVives of Masons have been informed that they could expect no promotion in their work, e.9., school teacher or government employee, unless the husband withdrerv from l\fasonry; (t; Ct itar.n of Masons going to catechism have been told terrible things about the Masons; (c) Retraction has been forced on Masons, e.g.,when a Mason was in a coma, the local priest and the wife placed the Mason's thumb-mark on a fetraction form; later on the wife re- fused to allow his Masonic brethren to see or subsequently to give him a Masonic funeral. (General Emilio Aguinaldo, a great Fili- pino hero, has been a Mason for over seventy years. Many Roman Catholic priests have pleaded with him to retract. He has repeatedll' stated, "There is nothing in Masonry which is against the Roman Catholic Church, therefore, I have nothing to retract." Mrs' Agui- naldo is an ardent Roman Catholic and she has stated that she feels that General Aguinaldo should not retract.) (4) Masons cannot be sponsors at baptisms or at weddings in a Roman Catholic Church. (5) Perhaps the sorest point is the fact that priests and parishes publish literatuie attacking the Masons, accusing them of being in i."g.r. rvith the devil, of 'being anti-Christ, of being atheists, of being agnostics, or of being communists. These conditions are detrimental to family and national unity. There is no question that energy is being misdirected and dissipated; the same effort could better be employed in positive action for the glory of God. Ever since 1954, when I became N{aster of my Lodge, I have been lvork- ing on this problem, and have asked my brethren to preach and to practice chirity. As a result, the Masons in our jurisdiction no longer retaliate rvhen they are jtormented, althbugh some of them still voice their objections to the more bitter attacks. It u,as, therefore, one of the greatest experiences of rny life to have an audience r,r'ith the Holy Father and then to be received so cordially ancl sympathetically by Your Eminence. When I was with you, I {elt that I was talking rvith a man in whom the spirit of God was ovem'helm- ing and I became confident that this case was now in the hands of a man who could deal with it correctly. I shall always love Your Eminence as a brother. God has blessed you, and I pray that through you He will bless my hunrble efforts. Faithfully yours, (Sgd.) WILLIAM H. QUASHA t0 The Cabletow Decernber 15' 1966 His l.-r,ine,ce, Agustino cardinar Bea Via Aurelia, 57 Rorne, Italy Your llnrinence: This is a pro ruemoria on the interview you so graciously granted n1e on June 2, 1966 rvhich was attended by His Excellency, Benigno Toda y Toledo and Father S. Schmidt, S.J., your Eminence's secretary. During our nreeting your Erninence referred to a series of articles appear- ing in an Italian publication entitlecl [,'ita in which certain persons referring to thenrselves as Masons indicated a spirit of antagonism toward the Roman Catholic Church. These persons and their organization are not recognized by the Grand Lodge of the Republic of the Philippines as Nlasons. We have no connection lvith thenr, and in fact disown them. Unfortunately, we have no po\!'er to take any action against them other than to forbid our own I\{a- sons from having any contact with them. If a Nlason in our jurisdicion were to violate this injunction, he would be guilty of unmasonic conduct and would bc punishable in accordance with the provisions of our constitution. In our parlance they a.re spurious, and every Mason in our jurisdiction and in all the jurisdictions rvith rvhich we have fraternal relations, approximately 90, have the sarne obligation; this includes all 49 Grand Lodges in the United States. Your Eminence will recall that after my visit to you on about January 31, 1963 I sent to you from Washington, D.C. two volumes, one of which was entitled Regular Lodges fuIasonic and the other showed the tables of recognition r,r'hich exist between the various Grand Lodges. Your Eminence rvill not find the group referred to in Vita in either of these volun.res. As I stated in my fro ruem,oria dated March lB, 1963, a copy of rvhich is attached for your ready reference, all the Grand Lodges which we recognize ruust adhere to the following principles: 1. Belief in God (One Almighty God, Father of all Nfen, Maker of heaven and earth). 2. Belief in the future existence. 3. The obligation taken by any Mason must be on and in full vierv of the Holy Bible to rvhich u'e refer as the Volume of the Sacred Lalr'. 4. There shall be no discussion of religion anFilipinos at the Malate Catholic Church. One of my fellow sponsors 'was the wife of the then President of the Philippines and another was the another was Speaker of the House of Representatives-the of the Philippiles; still a^-e-be. of the Senate of Republic of the Philippines, the latter being one of the leading Catholic laymen in the country, Hon. Raul Manglapus. This recent experierrci in this respect can be duplicated by many other Masons in our jurisdiction. After t saw you last June, I met the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Connecticut who informecl me that he had recently had an audience with Hi.- Holir,.rs, Pope Paul VI and that His Holiness had complimented him on his efforts to improve relations between his Grand Lodge and the Roman Catholics in his irea. Insofar as I know, I was the first Grand Master in office to have an audience with the Holy Father, and the efforts of the Grand Master of Connecticut is evidence thaf our Grand Lodge is not alone in its desire to bridge the hiatus which now exists. I learned recently that the Grand Secretar*y of the Grand Lodge of California who is a Past Grand Master of that Grand Lodge is planning io be in Europe next June and would like to have an audiencl with the H-oly Father. I have informed him that I felt he should endeavor to seek an audience with you first. It continues to be the hope of our Grand Lodge that the present situation be altered in the spirit of ecumenicity' I enclose a copy of the Cabteioza for the month of December, 1966 in rvhich you will noti'that the editor took occasion to compliment me for my eflorts in this matter. it ,lro reprinted articles which I'wrote in Jun9, 19-!! ;J t. Aprrl,1962 for the Cabletow. I presume the reason that the editor did not print my pro memoria of March 18,-1963 was because it was not available ;;-hil. Ui io this point I have kept your message in mind, that we ought to give arry publicity to my activity so as to avoid unnecessary antagonisms. "ofi-in, io"a..inj, t o*"rer, whether at this point it would not- be a good idea f;;;r to publisfr'my previous pro rnemoria as well as this one in our Cabletme' It would'be heartening to our members and I believe would also encourage J"r-"il.trtionships b"etu,een the Roman Catholic Church and the members o{ our Grand Lodge. fhc Crblctow 12 Concurrently in our joint efforts to bring together under the panoply of God all those who profess a belief in Him; there are counterforces at work which are attempting to destroy all institutions which stand for God. We feel, and I am sure your Eminence does, too, that we ought to find a ,nodus viz.'endi which will give us more strength to do God's work and to forestall the efforts of those who seek to destroy us both. Only a few hundred miles away from here, in Mainland China, priests and nuns have been killed, tor- tured and driven from their places of abode and of worship and forced to leave the land which they came to save. In this connection it is interesting to note our constituent lodges in mainland China were likeu,ise driven out and forced to reestablish themselves in Taiwan. In these circunistances we urge that efforts be intensified to bring this case to the attention of His Holiness, Pope Paul VI, so that the Grand Lodge of the Republic of the Philippines will not be covered by previously published Encyclicals and Bulls against Masonry. I take this occasion to wish Your Eminence llry sincere wishes for con- tinued health and happiness during Christmas and the New Year. Faithlully yours, (Ssd.) WILLIAN{ H. QUASHA, PGIU

February 8, 1967 His Eminence, Agustino Cardinal Bea Chairman, Committee on Christian Unity The Vatican, Italy Your Eminence: According to newspaper accounts there have been sonre important changes in the Vatican. I arn very hopeful tiat you will be able to continue your position of influence in the matter of Christian unity. Next May I plan to go to the United States via Europe and would be very happy to include Rome in my itinerary if it will be possible for me, in some way, to contributq further to the presentation I made in 1963 and on my subsequent visit in 1966. Certainly the spirit of ecumenism becomes increasingly pervasive. In my own church we had a special service during the week devoted to Christian unity. I continue to be strong in my belief that if favorable consideration is given to the matter which I put forward, a tremendous amount of impetus will be given to the gnowth of the unity which the world so urgently and ferventJy needs and prays for. Please accept my best wishes {or your continued good health. Faithfully yours, (Sgd.) WILLIAM H. QUASHA Past Grand Murter

It is an emblom of lnnocencc and the tradge of a Mason. Moro ancient than the Gold,en Fleece or the Roman Eagle, more honorable than the Star and Garter, or any distinction that can be conferred upon you, at this or any future pcrlod, by King, Prlnce, Potentate or. any other person. It may be that in the coming )'ears, upon your head shall r,est the laurel lvreath of victory, upon your breast may hang jewels fit to graee the dia- dem of an eastern potentate; nay more than these, rvith light added to tho comlng light, your ambi- tious feet may tread round after rounil the ladder that leads to fame ln our mystic circle and even the purple of our Fr'aternity may rest upon your hott- orctl shoulder. But never aga.in from mortal hands, never again until your enfranchised spirit shall havc passetl upward and inrvard through th,e pearly gates, shall any honor so distinguished, so emble- matical of purity and a.ll perfections, be bestor.i,ed upon you as this rvhieh I now confer. It is yours- your name is rvrltten upon lt-yours to wear throughout an honorable life and at your dcath to be placed upon the coffin rvhich shall contain your earthly remains and rvlth them lald beneath the Silent clods of the valley. Let its pure antl spotless surfacc be to you an ever-present reminder of an emblematical or ur- blemished purity of life anrl rectitude of conduct, a never-ending argument for notrler deeds, for hlgher thoughts, for purer actions, and for greater achieve- ments. And when at last your tvearl' feet shall have come to the end of their toilsome journey, and from your nerveless grasp shall drop forever the work- ing tools of life. may the record of your life anrl a,ctions be as pure and sDotless as thls fair emblem which I norv place ln your ha.nrls. And when your trosnbling sol1l stloll stn.nd nakerl and a,lone before the Great Whito Throne. there to rereive judgment for the deeds done rvhile in the body, may it be your portion to hear from Him who sitteth as the Jutlge Supreme, the welcome words, ..\ilell done, thou good and faithful scrv:rnt: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." It is hoped, my Brother, thnt you rvill rvear that apron with pleasurc to yourself anrl hoaor to tho Fraternity.
