Thanks for your reply.
Michael Davies in his "Apologia Pro Marcel Lefebve" quotes Fr. Congar:
"It cannot be denied that a text like this does materially say something different from the Syllabus of 1864, and even almost the opposite of propositions 15 and 77-9 of the document."
You were right about the propositions :-)
Do you own Fr. Congar's book? Is it possible that the quote used in Fr. Kramer's book is how it appeared in French? It still wouldn't help explain the propositions goof up, though...

No, I read it at a library.

It's probably just an editing mistake on Fr. Kramer's part. Nothing serious but I thought I'd just make it clear which numbers of the Syllabus Fr. Congar actually mentioned. I don't think even the wildest liberal could claim that DH teaches, for instance, that "Good hope at least is to be entertained of the eternal salvation of all those who are not at all in the true Church of Christ" (no. 17).
