Diocese of Omaha
Created Archdiocese
Most R'ev. James H. Ryan,
Bishop of Omaha, Appointed
First Archbishop of New
Metropolitan See
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
WASHINGTON. — His Holiness
Pope Pius XII has raised the Dio
cese of Omaha to the rank of an
Archdiocese, and has appointed
the Most Rev. James H. Ryan,
present Bishop of Omaha, as the
first Archbishop of the newly-
created Metropolitan See, it was
announced here by His Excellency
tbe Most Rev. Amlelo Giovanni
Cicognani, Apostolic Delegate to
the United States.
Tbe Archdiocese of Omaha will
have as Suffragan Sees the Dio
ceses of Lincoln, Nebraska, and
Grand Island, Nebraska.
Thus the entire State of Ne
braska is severed from tbe eccle
siastical jurisdiction of the Arch
diocese of Dubuque, Iowa. The
ecclesiastical Province of Du
buque will now consist of the Secs
in the State of Iowa, while the
ecclesiastical Province of Omaha
will consist of the Sees in the
State of Nebraska.
GROWTH OF CATHOLIC LIFE
This change in the ecclesiastical
jurisdictions has been occasioned
by the development of Catholic
life in the area. The State of Ne
braska, with an area of 77,520
square miles and a total popula
tion of 1.377.963, has an estimated
Catholic population of 200,000
with almost 500 priests in active
service.
In late years Omaha has grown
to be a very large metropolitan
center. It lias a population of a
quarter of a million people. Most
of the railroad lines to the West
begin in or pass through Omaha.
It is also an important center for
air lines. Industrially it has been
increasing from year to year.
Within the last few years the
Catholic populaton of the Diocese
of Omaha has increased from 100,-
000 to 120,000. It has in the city
itself 35 flourising parishes,
where 25 years ago it had but one
half that number. Omaha has a
large and beautifu. $1,000,000 Ca- J
thedral, and has an adequate sup
ply of native-born candidates for
the priesthood, due in great meas
ure to its well-established system
of Catholic educational institu
tions ranging all the way from its
numerous parochial elementary
and high schools to Creighton
University, conducted by the Jes
uit Fathers. Equal opportunities
are offered young women with tbe
result that many embrace the re
ligious life.
The Society of the Propagation
of the Faith is flourishing in
Omaha.
The St. Columban Fathers have
their American headquarters
there. Charitable institutions car
ing for every type of human ills
and needs can be found there.
Outstanding among these is “Boys
Town,” Father Flangan’s Home
for Boys.
