HELPS POWS
In his years in Istanbul he
never had his own car. He used
public transportation. His staff
was small, consisting of one
secretary and an assistant. In
his spare time he toured the
city’s many antique and book
shops. He bought a considerable
number of manuscripts as well
as objects of Byzantine art of
which he had become a con
noisseur even before arriving in
Turkey.
The second World War ended
the more or less tranquil assign
ment of being a non-diplomatic
pastor of souls for Archbishop
Roncalli. With its horrors the
war transformed his activities
into the diplomacy of human
solidarity, into the Church’s re
sponse to the needs of charity.
The Apostolic Delegate’s
office in Istanbul was one of the
most active in the service of the
Vatican’s Information Bureau.
Pope Pius XII set this bureau
up in 1939 to establish contact
between prisoners of war of all
nations and their relatives. It
also worked to find missing per
sons and refugees who were
scattered all over the world.
After World War II it handled
more than 10 million requests
and Turkey, through the Dele
gation, was among the most im
portant posts in this work. The
Apostolic Delegates was able to
get information about POWs and
people in concentration camps
whom even the International
Red Cross was unable to trace.
In Turkey, Archbishop Ron
calli was also very active in aid
ing Jewish refugees fleeing
Hitler and in helping to reach
Palestine. The Chief Rabbi of
Israel, Dr. Isaac Herzog, traveled
to Istanbul more than once dur
ing these years to visit Arch
bishop Roncalli and publicly
paid tribute to him for his ef
forts on behalf of the Jews.
His office during the war
years also served as a contact
point with other representatives
of the Holy See in the nqar East.
Communications from Africa
and South America went via
Cape Town, Suez, Turkey and
by courier to Rome.
Needless to say Turkey, being
neutral during the war, swarm
ed with agents of both sides.
And many kept their eyes on
Delegate Roncalli. Every move
he made was watched night and
day by German, British and
other agents.
The Archbishop got so that he
could identify his followers and
once remarked: “I never could
find out whether they followed
and watched me or one
another.”
Toward the end of the war
Archbishop Roncalli was asked
to become the intermediary be
tween the warring nations.
VON PAPEN ASKS FOR HELP
The German Ambassador to
Turkey, Franz Von Papen, ask
ed Angelo Roncalli to request
the Vatican to convince the
Allies that they should make a
distinction between the German
people and the Hitler Regime.
After the war Von Papen
made another appeal to Ron
calli. The former ambassador
was to be tried before the Inter
national War Crimes Tribunal
in Nuremburg and he asked the
future Pope to be a witness in
his defense.
In his Memoirs, Von Papen re
calls his meeting with Arch
bishop Roncalli. Of it, he writes:
“The papal delegate Monsi
gnor Roncalli, who had arrived
in Istanbul for a confirmation
service, tried to assuage our
fears. He could see no alterna
tive to a German defeat but he
had confidence in the judgement
of the Western Allied states
men and their intention of tak
ing all the measures necessary
for European security.
“At my request he forwarded
to the Vatican my pleas that the
Allies should realize the dif
ference between the Hitler re
gime and the German people.”
In 1934, the-then Archbishop
Spellman of New York, visited
Istanbul and remarks in his
book Action This Day that:
“The Apostolic Delegate Mon
signor Roncalli was at the sta
tion to meet me ... I had
known Monsignor Roncalli and
it was good to see him again.”
Cardinal Spellman was to be
the guest of the future Pope
when he was Patriarch of
Venice.
Because Turkey was neutral
and because he functioned as a
representative of the Holy See,
Archbishop Roncalli’s work in
Turkey was effective and auto
matically took-on a diplomatic
nature.
During the same years he was
Apostolic Delegate in Greece.
And in those war years he was
a principal figure in Greece in
one of the great and, for the
most part, little known stories of
charity among Christians. He
helped avert mass starvation.

"Laity Is The Church
Internatinal Sodality
Congress Told By Bishop
THE BULLETIN, September 19, 1953—PAGE 3
II
By Joseph Thomas
(N.C.W.C. News Service)
NEWARK, N. J. — “The lai
ty is the Catholic Church,” a
Bishop told the world congress
of the Sodalities of Our Lady.
Auxiliary Bishop Leo C.
Byrne of St. Louis spoke to the
delegates at a Solemn Pontifical
Mass in Sacred Heart Cathedral.
Archbishop Thomas A. Bo
land of Newark offered the
Mass. An estimated 4,000 were
in attendance and the overflow
heard the services and the ser
mon through loudspeakers set
up outside.
Among those taking part in
the opening procession were 17
archbishops and bishops, about
50 monsignors, 200 priests and
20 laymen who have been dec
orated by the pope.
Addressing the lay delegates,
Bishop Byrne, executive epis
copal moderator for Sodalities
in the United States, said: “You
are the Church and the Church
needs your vital thinking to
promote her cause in the
world.”
Bishop Byrne echoed the plea
of St. Pius X for laymen who
are “virtuous, enlightened, de
termined and really apostolic.”
Scientific advances, diplomatic
visits, cultural exchanges and
even foreign aid do not hold
“the total answer” for the mod
ern world, he said. The reason,
he declared, is that “sanctity is
the most urgent need of the
world today.”
He told the delegates that
“sodalists who are saintly and
have saintly sodalities would
make an unparalleled contribu
tion” to order and harmony.
Later, at Seton Hall Universi
ty, South Orange, N. J., the
delegates heard a Catholic lay
leader call on them to “face
the challenge of this hour of his
tory: a challenge to build a
brave new world — not on the
atomic ruins of the old, but
upon the foundation of charity

Martin H. Work, executive
director of the National Council
of Catholic Men, told the so
dalists that “the task you face
in bringing your spiritually
trained minds and apostolicly
formed hearts into the arena
of international life is a war
like one.”
“You must forego forever
the thought that you can find
any peace or joy other than in
the happiness of your fellow-
man,” he said.
Mr. Work declared that “the
idea of international aware
ness” should have special sig
nificance” for sodalists. “The
whole world in all its conti
nents and all its nations, in all
its people from east to west and
north to south, has been conse
crated to Our Lady in the sym
bol of her Immaculate Heart,”
he reminded them. “So in a
unique way her world is yours,
and the problems of her people
are your problems too.”
Joseph O’Connor, a sodality
leader from London, urged the
delegates to “become highly
conscious of the power of prop
aganda. He added: “The com
munists use it well for their
pagan ends. We cah use it well
to establish Christ in society.”
“The special job of sodalities
is to correct those elements of
society which cause the vic
tims” of society, Mr. O’Connor
declared. “Our job is to change
society, to overthrow the pa
gan concept of life which pro
duces the victims.”
Inviting all Christians, and
especially sodalists, to attain
personal holiness and influence
others, Bishop Byrne said that
“saints must be found not only
in lands of persecution but also
in the lands of liberty.”
If its members live the true
sodality life, he said, the so
dality can produce an “elite
corps” trained in the work of
Christ, influencing other groups,
making its way into “every part
of life.”
Archbishop Boland gave his
official welcome to the dele
gates at the Mass and offered an
indulgence of 200 days under
the usual conditions to those
participating.
He said that Pope Pius XII’s
statement of devotion to the
sodality stemmed not from sen
timent but from a realization
that the sodality way of life is
“one of the greatest needs of
the world today.” He declared
that sodalists are expected to
carry the messages of the or
ganization, of Mary and “of ser
vice to her Divine Son ... to
attract others and so to be a
leaven in society and bring
about world peace.”
Sodalities are organizations of
Catholics, mostly of laymen and
women, who pledge themselves
to a deeper spiritual life and
active participation in the
work of the Church.
The sodality movement is
among the oldest of its kind in
the Church, having been estab
lished more than 360 years ago.
Only in the past 10 years has it
been organized on a world bas
is with headquarters in Rome.
Sodalists pledge to observe
67 rules, the most important of
which call for daily meditation
and examination of conscience,
frequent reception of the sac
raments, recitation of an Office
of the Blessed Virgin daily and
consecration to the Blessed Mo
ther.
There are an estimated eight
million sodalists throughout the
world, including 1.8 million in
18,000 groups in the United
States.
