CHICAGO, (NC) — His Holi
ness Pope Pius XII “principally
had in mind honoring the
Church in the United States.”
This was the reaction of His
Eminence Samuel Cardinal
Stritch, Archbishop of Chicago,
on learning that the Holy Father
had named him to be Pro-Pre
fect, of the Sacred Congregation
of the Propagation of the Faith.
Cardinal Stritch said he was
“surprised and amazed” by his
appointment “to such an import
ant office in the Roman Curia,”
and that in going to Rome he
will try to prove himself worthy
of the Pope’s confidence “and of
the great Catholic body of whom
I shall be a symbol.”
The text of Cardinal Stritch’s
statement fellows:
“When this news came to me,
I was surprised and amazed. It
never entered my mind that the
Holy Father would think of me
for such an important office in
the Roman Curia, which assists
His Holiness in the government
of the Universal Church.
“It is clear that His Holiness,
in honoring me, principally had
in mind honoring the Church in
the United States. Never before
in history has an American pre
late been called to such an im
portant office. The Sacred Con
gregation of the Propagation of
the Faith, under the immediate
authority of the Holy Father, is
entrusted with the care of the
foreign missions of the Church.
The Catholics of the United
States have shown a growing
interest in these missions. Quite
evidently, the Holy Father, in
calling me to this office, wished
to give another expression of
His Fatherly appreciation for
this interest. At the call of His
Holiness, I shall go to Rome and,
with God’s help, try to prove
myself worthy of his confidence
and of the great Catholic body
of whom I shall be a symbol.
“To my clergy and people of
this occasion I express my deep
affection. They, have been my
support and edification through
these 18 years. I know that I
shall have their prayers in the
discharge of the heavy responsi
bilities of the office to which I
am called. I may say to them
that I have not received the of
ficial document calling me to
this important office. When I
receive it, I shall inform them in
detail on what is involved in
this call of the Holy Father.
“For the present all that I
know is that the Holy Father
has called me to be the Pro-
Prefect, of the Sacred Congrega
tion of the Propagation of the
Faith. The Prefect is the esteem
ed Cardinal Fumasoni-Biondi,
whom we remember as being
Apostolic Delegate in the United
States. It will be a great com
fort to me to have at my side
this great Cardinal, who, with
the exception of his years as
Apostolic Delegate in the United
States, has been an outstanding
official from Minor to Prefect of
the Sacred Congregation of the
Propagation of the Faith. His
knowledge of the foreign mis
sions, his great ability and his
understanding, promise me some
usefulness in helping the Holy
Father in his great apostolate for
the missions of Holy Church in
these difficult times.
“May I add that after eighteen
years here in Chicago, despite
my being from other parts, I am
a Chicagoan and I love Chicago,
its people and its warmth. It is
my prayer that through the
years which God will give me I
shall be able to contribute my
little part in making Chicago
the world’s greatest city, in
which spiritual values will take
precedence over mere material
and humanistic considerations,”

other as an occasion for evil.
Here the real sin is due to the
malice of the one “scandalized,”
rather than to the action of the
other person. A puritanical per
son might be “pharisaically
scandalized,” for example, by
seeing another take a drink or
play an innocent game of cards.
This kind of scandal derives its
name from the fact that the
Pharisees seized upon the very
words of Chirst as an occasion
to commit sin.
Q. Didn't our Lord predict that
He would spend three days and
three nights in the tomb? ("For
even as Jonas was in the belly
of the fish three days and three
nights, so will the Son of Man
be three days and three nights
in the heart of the earth." St.
Matthew XII: 38), How is it then
that Christ rose from the dead
on Easter Sunday morning, just
about 40 hours after His burial
on Good Friday?
A. In Rabbinic usage, the ex
pression “day and night” was a
compound term designating ei
ther a full cycle of 24 hours, or
an incomplete cycle of 24 hours.
Thus, for example, Father Ric-
ciotti, in his “The Life of Christ,”
quotes a first century rabbi:
“One night and one day make
one ‘Onah (a period of twenty-
four hours), and a part of one
‘Onah counts for a whole ‘Onah.”
By using the term, then, Our
Divine Lord was saying in effect
that He would be in the grave
either three complete days or
for three partial days. From sub
sequent history we know that
He was referring to the iatter.
