Archbishop
(Continued from Page One)
lie Delegate to Great Britain.
On a more somber side he
tried to give a first hand pic
ture of Communism, by relat
ing some of his experiences as
Regent of the Apostolic Nuncia
ture in Romania. He told of the
Bishops and priests who were
imprisoned of the people who
disappeared overnight and of
that “Last Day” of the Nuncia
ture.
The Archbishop related that
on that “Last Day” he had con
secrated two ciborium full of
hosts, so that the Nuns might
have the consolation of the
Blessed Sacrament after the
priests had been imprisoned or
expelled.
He said that on the day fol
lowing his expulsion, the Nuns
also were arrested, leaving the
Blessed Sacrament alone unpro
tected in the tabernacle of the
Nunciature.
The Italian Minister, learning
of the situation, approached the
Romanian Government request
ing that they allow their Chap
lain to remove the Blessed Sa
crament. This they refused to
do, also refusing to allow any
layman to enter the Nunciature.
Finally they did consent to
allow the Ministers six-year-old
son to remove the Blessed Sacra
ment, but even then only under
armed guard.
Archbishop O’Hara will re
main in the Diocese until the
middle of December, when he
must return to England and his
duties as Apostolic Delegate.

thorough, formal education,” ha
said, and more important than
new school buildings, as impor

bring to the class an enthusiasm
that will put a higher gloss on
subjects generally considered

encouragement and backing of
every parent.
