Pope John- (Continued from Page 4) those of other faiths, separated from the Church of Rome, can not experience. He continued: “It is a beauti ful thing to form a single family, a family with Mary the Mother of Jesus as our mother... I speak to you this way to tell you what happiness there is in my heart. Let us all keep Mary the protectress in our hearts.” When the time came for Pope John to speak in English, he prefaced his remarks by first saying in Italian: “I will not speak it very well, but I will do better in the future. If any one here is an expert in the language, he should know that I am taking my novitiate.” The simplicity with which this was said drew resounding applause from the crowd. At the end of the audience the Pope gave his apostolic blessing. Before imparting it he said he would give the blessing and invited those present to re spond in chant. The Pope first began to learn English when he was Apostolic Delegate in Bulgaria and his teacher was Msgr. Thomas Ryan, present head of the English language section of the Vatican Secretariat of State. He had to interrupt his English lessons when he was appointed Apos tolic Nuncio to France in 1944.

AUGUSTA, GEORGIA America's New Cardinals Spent Question Box Days Before Their Elevation Often Of U. S. THE BULLETIN, December 27, T95a—PAGE 5 ((Radio, N.C.W.C. News Service) ROME—America’s new Card inals were busy in the days pre ceding the December 15 con sistory preparing themselves for the ceremonies and recep tions which marked their eleva tion to the rank of Princes of the Church. From the time they arrived in Rome until they were presented with the “biglietti” officially no tifying them of their nomination to the Sacred College of Card inals, they lived simply and frequently talked of the United States. After their elevation their days were crowded with official visits and ceremonial functions. His Eminence John Cardinal O’Hara, C.S.C., Archbishop of Philadelphia, recalled meeting His Holiness Pope John XXIII when the latter was Apostolic Nuncio to France. He said he met him at a re ception given by Ambassador Jefferson Caffery, who served as the U. S. diplomatic envoy to Paris at the time. Speaking of the Pontiff, Cardinal O’Hara added: “Even then I was impressed' with the simple, humble manner of the man, while at the same' time his great learning and keen mind were evident as proved by the way he distinguished him self in his diplomatic assign ments.” The prelate said he felt highly honored at being created a Cardinal because, “as far as I know I am the first of my Con gregation of Holy Cross to be so honored.” The Archbishop of Philadel phia lived quietly at Holy Cross headquarters and rarely went out, but was in very good hu mor and said he was anxious to return home. His Eminence Richard Card inal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston, lived at the North American College of Rome and was the most active of the group.

THE HEFFERNANS the Grand Hotel here at the request of newsmen. His slow, deliberate speaking manner and his obvious relaxed ease won him many compliments among journalists who met him for the first time. He told newsmen that his cardinalitial honor came in rec ognition of the people of Bos ton and New England, includ ing “the good people of other faiths with whom I have work ed within various civic func tions and many of whom were as enthusiastic if not more so” than his priests and faithful. The Archbishop of Boston said there was great enthusiasm in his See for the new Pope. He declared that when the latter’s election was first announced many felt it would be difficult to fill the place of the late Pius XII, that anyone who succeeded him would be somewhat in the shadow of the former Pontiff. “Yet the present Pope’s style, his simplicity, great human qua lity and kindness have already won him affection,” Cardinal Cushing said. “At the same time people recognize him as an out standing Pope in respect to his ability and naturally great things are expected of him.” While in Rome the Archbish op of Boston paid a call on Jes uit General Father Jean Bap tiste Janssens to thank him per sonally for conferring on him the title of “a founder of the New England Province” in rec ognition of the Cardinal’s sup port and interest. The prelate said Mass in the crypt of St. Peter’s on the sec ond day of his stay in Rome. About 70 Bostonians who made the trip with him attended the Mass. He gave them a brief talk after the service, warning them like a father to be careful and not catch cold in the changeable Italian weather. In addition to his unusual ac tivities His Eminence Amleto Giovanni Cardinal Cicognani, former Apostolic Delegate to the United States, was engaged in making arrangements for liv ing in Rome. The Cardinal, who also stay ed at the Holy Cross Fathers’ headquarters, said that “for the time being I am somewhat like a man without a country as I have just left one assignment and have yet to be reassigned.” He will probably be assigned to one of the congregations in Rome, but no matter where he goes he will have many remind ers of his long service in Ameri ca. “I have brought back many mementos from the United States and attached to each there is the happy memory of some person or some circum stance,” he declared. “At pres ent I have them in my rooms at the International College of the Congregation of Holy Cross where I am staying temporari ly.” Cardinal Cicognani declared that he was naturally glad to return to Italy as it is his home, “but after so many years in the United States with so many friends among the clergy and the laity I will have to readapt myself.” The prelate said that he, Card inal Cushing and Cardinal O’ Hara are “one unit, we consid er ourselves as three American Cardinals, myself included. Two of us will go home and I will, with a touch of regret, remain.” Cardinal Cicognani said that he does not know when he will take possession of his titular church, San Clemente, but that he is enthusiastic about being assigned to it and knows its history thoroughly. (Continued from Page 4) seventy, a maximum which was maintained until the current reign of Pope John XXIII. Inso far as is conveniently possible, cardinals are selected from all the nations of Christendom (The Council of Trent, Session XXIV). * The main duties of a cardinal are to assist the Roman pontiff in Church government; and upon the Holy Father’s death, to elect a successor. Chief among a cardinal’s privileges are the right to preach and hear con fessions anywhere in the world, precedence over all other pre lates, including archbishops and patriarchs, and the right to wear and use certain insignia. The formal title of address reserved for cardinals is “Your Emi nence.” HISTORICALLY, the roots of the cardinalate can be found in apostolic times. In the words of Pope Eugene IV: “Although the . name of this dignity was not expressed from the beginning of the primitive Church as it is now, still the office itself you will find evi dently to have been instituted by St. Peter and his successors.” THE DISTINCTION with re gard to “cardinal priests,” “car dinal deacons,” etc. is now pri marily of symbolic rather than practical significance. The ear liest cardinals were always the senior priests attached to the 25-28 quasi-parishes belonging to the pope. Later, Pope Fabian (d. 251) named to the cardinalate certain deacons in the rural areas outside Rome. (Sometime during the following decade Pope Dionysius also appointed cardinals among the priests out side Rome.) Finally, because of the ever-increasing administrat ive and ceremonial burdens of the papacy, Pope Gregory III (d. 741) named the bishops of the seven suburban Roman sees as cardinals. Today “cardinal deacon,” for example, does not mean that a cardinal is a dea con, but that he now has the title originally given to a dea con of the primitive Church. COLLINS MANUFACTURING CO.

Pope’s Election Big Setback To Communists PHOENIX, Ariz., (NC) — It aly’s Reds “received a great set back in the election of Pope John,” Mrs. Clare Boothe Luce asserted here in an interview. The former U. S. Ambassador to Italy was interviewed by Fa ther John P. Doran, for years a columnist for the Arizona Reg ister, newspaper of the Tucson diocese. Mrs. Luce told Father Doran that the efforts of communism in Italy would be easier if the Pope were not an Italian, for at present the pride of all Italians and their sense of meaningful ness in the world” is in the Pope’s being an Italian. “The communists of Italy re ceived a great setback in the election of Pope John,” she said. “Here he was a man of simple, peasant background, of a large family of poor people who still worked the land near their na tive village. He had risen in the Church, but they had not profit ed by his rise. No other thought could be credited than ‘here is a holy and so honest man!” Mrs. Luce, who was an official representative of the U. S. Gov ernment at the coronation of Pope John, said the Vatican ap peared very pleased that Pres ident Eisenhower had sent a full delegation, which included Secretary of State Dulles. When Father Doran asked about her impression of the late Pope Pius XII, Mrs. Luce said he could be referred to as the “Saint of Public Relations.” “No one to my knowledge,” she stated, “has done more to make the non-Cathclic world understand the Church and find it appealing than Pius XII.” Most people have sense enouglT to mind their own bus iness, but very few are willing to let it go at that.
