Ljubo Paskalovic,
Hungarian Seaman,
Dies in Savannah
SAVANNAH, Ga,—Ljubo Faska-
lovic, a Yugoslav seaman, who had
been’ fighting for his life and try
ing to gain American citizenship
for the past year, lost both battles
when he died on May 7. Funeral
services were held at the Cathe
dral of St. John the Baptist, with
burial in the Catholic Cemetery.
A victim of cancer, Mr. Paskalo
vic was helped by local doctors and
nurses in his fight for life. Amputa
tion of his right arm and shoulder
last year failed to stop the ravages
of the disease.
His fight to become a citizen of
the United States was being fought
in Congress. A bill to make him a
citizen had been introduced and
approved by the Senate, but the
House of Representatives had not
yet acted on it. The House judici
ary committee was to have consid
ered a measure for his relief this
month.
Savannah took the courageous
seaman to its heart, and it was ar
ranged that he could remain here
rather than return to Europe. He
came here on the foreign freighter
Norita, and was left in a local hos
pital for treatment for a broken
arm. It was then that the cancer
was discovered.

Apostolic Delegate's
Addresses and Sermons
Published in Book Form
PATERSON, N. J.—(NC)—Major
events in Catholic Church history
in the United States over a span
of nearly ten years are recorded in
an unusual way in a new book
which has made its appearance
here.
Covering a period from the end
of May, 1942, to early September,
1951, the volume marks outstand
ing Catholic events, not iust as
events but as appropriate occa
sions for authoritative and pene
trating explanations of Catholic
teachings and institutions.
The book is Addresses and Ser
mons by His Excellency Archbishop
Amleto Cicognani, Apostolic Dele
gate to the United States. It con
tains the carefully prepared re
marks of His Excellency on 83 im
portant occasions, including the'-’
consecrations and installations of
archbishops and bishops, the erec
tion of new ecclesiastical provinces
and dioceses, notable centenary ob
servances in various parts of the
country and other happenings of
historical importance in them
selves.
Archbishop Francis P. Keough
of Baltimore, in the foreword to
the volume says:
“As the representative of our
Holy Father, the distinguished au
thor has taken a very prominent
part in many major events of re
cent Catholic history in the United
States. In the inauguration of new'
dioceses, in the formation of new
provinces, in the consecration of
Bishops, in the presentation of pal
lia, he has often played a leading
role. At these events and at other
significant gatherings of Bishops,
priests and laity, he has been call
ed upon to speak both in his of
ficial capacity and as one known
everywhere for his love of the
American Church. In his frequent
and interesting talks, delivered in
every part of the land, he not only
has given evidence of his own wide
learning and fervent zeal, hut also
has borne witness to the solicitude
and affection of Peter’s successor
for all of Christ’s brethren in the
United States.
“On these occasions, Archbishop
Cicognani’s discourses have never
been mere routine expressions of
greeting and encouragement. They
have always been vehicles for the
apt and felicitous presentation of
many of the Church’s teachings,
for timely comment on significant
events of the day, and for the de
velopment of numerous interesting
phases of American Church his
tory.”
The new work, published by the
St. Anthony Guild Press here, fol
lows two other volumes of Ad
dresses and Sermons by Archbish
op Cicognani. One was publish
ed by Benziger Brothers in 1938
and contained his remarks on 67
separate occasions from the time
of his appointment as Apostolic
Delegate to the United States in
1933 to November 1937. The sec
ond volume, published by the St.
Anthony Guild Press in 1942, con
tains 65 discourses by the Apos
tolic Delegate between February,
1938, and May, 1942.
