Difference In Codes Mission Of Priest (By Patrick Gavan-Duffy Riley) When a young American lawyer, Claiborne Lafferty, studied for the priesthood here, he found startling differences between church law and the law he hod practised in Little Rock, Arkansas, U.S.A. Now, a quarter -century later, Father Lafferty crosses the Atlantic twice yearly to make those differences clear to students in Rome. Rome:
He considers his work as a professor law at the Lateran University's school of comparative of canon and civil law "a mission." Without a firm grasp of the essential differences between the two laws, he says, a man may encounter difficulties when he bred canon law, the law of the Church. applies Roman Father Lafferty says that the proper functioning of the Church in English-speaking countries good measure on an understanding of the depends in two laws. To English-speaking peoples, spirit of the governed by a civil law that is designed for all persons without exception, the provisions of canon law can seem merciless. "Canon law, like Roman law, is framed in the narrowest possible terms," he says. "It is an expression of principle, and it is expected that exceptions will be made to it in individual cases. "The law of England and America is framed in the broadest possible way, to include all cases and to admit' no exceptions. "When a man raised in the tradition of AngloAmerican law has to apply canon law, he can run into trouble." Father Lafferty points out that the practical differences between the two laws can be traced to the way each originated. "Roman law, 'which was the forerunner of canon law, began as a series of edicts from the emperor. Dispensations were granted frequently. "The common law of England grew up around cases as they arose. That is why, after centuries of evolution, it is applied to every case without exception. That is also why in Anglo-American law, the ruling of judge binds the rulings of his successors." Father Lafferty emphasises that the same wording can have a different meaning in each of the two kinds of law. For instance, the principle of canon law that "strict laws are strictly interpreted" means that such laws are strictly interpreted against themselves. Little Rock's priest -lawyer has spent all his life studying or teaching, with the exception of seven years practising law in Little Rock. He graduated from Georgetown University's school of law in 1924, opened his office in Little Rock and later donned the blue trimmed cassock of a seminarian of Rome's North American College. He was ordained here in 1935 and after the war returned to earn a doctorate in canon and civil law at the Lateran University. After receiving his degree he remained in Rome for the 1950 Holy Year to help at the North American College's audience office. It was then the he was first approached about teaching comparative law at the Lateran. But he returned to Little Rock before final arrangements were made and did not begin his teaching career in Rome until 1953. Father Lafferty divides his time almost evenly between Rome and America. He teaches one semester at the Lateran and one semester at the Little Rock seminary, St. John's. He also takes some time out to lecture before clubs and societies on his experiences in
Rome. He considers.teaching in Little Rock a duty and lecturing a pleasure, but neither is his real reason for commuting across the Atlantic. "I just can't stay away from home," he says.
C.W.L. felicitates Jubilarians To offer congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. P. O'Neill and help celebrate the occasion of their Golden Wedding on Friday 8th January 1960, members of the Cottesloe Catholic Women's League took a Surprise Party to their home in Stock Road, Bic ton. Mrs. O'Neill for many years, prior to going to reside in Bicton recently, had been an active and loyal member of the Cottesloe Branch, giving generously of her time and pocket, not to mention many surpme 'goodies" for after-
noon tea at branch meetings. Although now unable to attend League functions she is still keenly interested in its activities and members. Mr. and Mrs. O'Neill were toasted and wished many more years of togetherness and after the presentation of a gift from the Branch a "grand" afternoon tea was served. Much
chatter and reminiscences filled in the time which passed all too quickly and goodbye was said with further good wishes for the future to Mr. and Mrs.
