(RNS)~ President Kennedy said here that Pope John XXIII’s "con cern for the human spirit trans cended all the boundaries of be lief or geography." The first Roman Catholic President of the U.S., in a statement issued upon the pon tiff’s death, said Pope John "bequeathed humanity a new legacy of purpose and courage for the future." "The highest work of any man," Mr. Kennedy stated, "is to protect and carry on the deep est spiritual heritage of the race. "TO POPE John XXIII was given the almost unique gift of enriching and enlarging that tradition. Armed with the hu mility and calm which sur rounded his earliest days, he brought compassion and an un derstanding drawn from wide experience to the most divisive problems of a tumultuous age. "He was the chosen leaderof world Catholicism: but his con cern for the humsn spirit tran scended ail the boundaries of belief or geography. The ennob ling precepts of his encyclical and his actions drew on the ac cumulated wisdom of ansneient faith for guidance in the most complex and troublesome pro blems of the modern age." Statements praising the Pope’s character and his pro- grarrreame from leaders on both sides of the Iron Curtain. Here are reactions from major international figures: UNITED Nations Secretary General U Thant: "A most no ble life has come to an end. . . Pope John XXIII in his recent and memorable encyclical 'Pa- cem in Terris’ spoke for all men and to all men in rest ating his belief in the dignity of the individual, in fundamen tal human rights, in justice and in an effective international or der." Soviet Premier Nikita Khrus hchev: "We retain good memo ries of John XXIII, whose frui tful activities for the mainten ance and strengthening of pe ace earned him wide recogni tion and won him the respect of peace-loving peoples." Queen Elizabeth: "On this sad occasion Her Majesty and the Duke of Edinburgh recall the Impressive memories of their meeting with His Holiness in 1961. Her Majesty has greatly appreciated the kindly feelings which His Holiness has always exhibited toward herself and her subjects." UN Central Assembly pre sident Zafrulla Khan: "His Hol iness wil be universally mour ned, not only as a great prince of the Roman Catholic Church, but also as a great humani tarian." Irish President Eamon De Valera: "The Holy Father’s wisdom and charity endeared him to all our hearts." French President Charles De Gaulle: "The death of the Sov ereign Pontiff, all of whose re ign has been consecrated to peace among men and to a rap prochement among Christians, is felt with grief by the people of France." West German President Hei nrich Luebke: "Pope John has taken his place in history am ong the great popes in his fight for peace.’* Polish President Aleksander Zawadski: The Pope was "a man of great heart and an emi nent spokesman of peaceful coe xistence and of understanding among nations." ITALIAN President Antonio Segnl: "In this hour of mour ning the Pope's great teach ings shine more than ever and the memory of the work he did for the good of the Church and of the whole of humanity with in the short span of a fsw ye ars is rekindled." POPE JOHN Thousands File Past Bier In St. Peter’s Basilica World Leaders Mourn Death Of Pope John CARRYING his ruler’s baton until a new pope is elected, Benedetto Cardinal Alolsl Masella, Chamberlain of the Holy Roman Church, arrives at the papal apartments to supervise the removal of Pope John’s body. Cardinal Aiolsi Masella will act as administrator of Vatican affairs during the Interval between popes. (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) cials of the Vatican court, in cluding Msgr. Mario Nasalli Rocca di Corneliano, Master of the Apostolic Chambers. Behind him were additional members of the Noble Guard, clad in black instead of the usual crim son. At last the Pope’s bier em erged. It was fallowed by No ble Guards and four sergeants of the Swiss Guard carrying broad swords with their points turned toward the ground as a sign of mourning, and six mace bearers in black and violet vel vet. The silver maces were al so turned toward the ground to symbolize the fact that the papal throne is vacant, AS TOE body was borne thro ugh the vast square, thousands knalt almost as if to receive the blessing of the Pope who four and a half years ago had givan it so gladly and fraaly at the time of his election and coronation. Immediately behind the body was Paolo Cardinal Maralla, Archpriest of the Vatican basi lica, wearing the cappa magna, an armine-trimmad silk cape. Behind him were the more than 30 cardinals present in Rome. These were dressed in mourn ing purple Instead of the usual cardinal red. Then came the Grand Master of the Knights of Malta, Angelo de Mojana di Cologna, followed by the Prince Assistants at the Papal Throne, Prince Aspereno Colonna and Prince Alessandro Torlonia. Lay and clerical officials of the Vatican walked behind the princes and then came the mem bers of the diplomatic corps accredited to the Holy See. The procession was closed by ano ther squad of Palatine Guard. AT THE entrance to the basi lica the canons of St. Peter’s awaited the body. After it was blessed with holy water, it was carried into the church, which was closed to the public. From the square those watch ing could see the brilliantly lit interior through the open door way. The main aisle of the ch urch was flanked by the rows of green-covered seats in which the world’s bishops had sat whi le attending the first session of the ecumenical council. As the great doors swung shut, those outside could hear the chanting and prayers inside as they were carried over loud speakers. The first of the nine daily Masses for a deceased Pope were begun. At the same time the public was admitted to the basilica to pay their last re spects to Pope John as he lay in state. In the absence of the body, which will be entombed at a private ceremony in the crypt of St. Peter's at 6 p.m. today the rest of the Masses were offered in the presence of a huge catafalque draped In vio let and topped by a triple crown characteristic of the papacy. POPE JOHN will be burled wearing a ring mountad with a sixth-century coin bearing tha figure of Christ. The Pope had bought it In Istanbul, where ha was stationed when he was Apo stolic Delegate in Turkey. On Junt 4, prior to the pro cession, a restricted meeting of cardinals was held to call tha firat general cardinals’me eting to begin preptratlons for the conclave to elect a euc- ceseor to Pope John. The firat general meeting was held yeeterday. The cardinals are , meeting daily until the conclave begins on June 19. The restricted congregation of June 4 conflated of Benedet to Cardinal Aiolsi Masella Ch amberlain of the Holy Roman Church, and the heads of the three orders of cardinals: Eu*. gene Cardinal Tlsserant, Dean of Cardinal-Bishops; Santiago Cardinal Copello, Dean of Car dinal-Priests; and Alfredo Car dinal Ottavlani, Dean of Card inal - Deacons. No details of the meeting were released. In the general assembly, the cardinals meet to prepare for the conclave. They have no aut hority to make any decisions except in the most pressing matters confronting the Church, two bells tolled together, and These decisions can be set as- finally each of the bells again ide by the new pontiff. tolled nine times. AMONG the first business of the general assembly was to make sure that the seal of the fisherman's ring and the seal of the apostolic chancery have been broken. This ceremony is held to make sure that no do cument may be forged by the seal of a pope who could no longer deny its authenticity. The fisherman’s ring is kept in the apostolic chancery and is never worn by the pope, altho ugh he does wear an epieco- pal ring which is often errone- ouly called the fisherman's ring. Other business before the general assembly is to order obsequies for the dead pope and to appoint committees of card inals to prepare for the con clave. One committee provides for material construction of the conclave apartments, another chooses who will be in the ser vice at the conclave, and the third examines the credentials of those to be admitted into the conclave. The general aisem- bly also approves the budget proposed for the expenses of the conclave and authorizes is suance of coins and stamps commemorating the "sede va- cante" period. AS IS customary following a pontiff’s death, the bronze doors of the apostolic palace were closed. The official party charged with performing the "recogni tion of death" ceremony enter ed the deceased Pope's room as the bells of St. Peter’s tradi tionally tolled the sad news of his death. Each bell in the great church tolled nine times in turn. Then As the doleful tones broke out across the fading evening sky, a hush fell over the milling thousands in St. Peter’s squa re. The only other sounds in the warm night were from an occasional portable radio, whi spered remarks and the splash ing of the waters in the flood lit fountains. As the news of the Pope’s death spread, throngs of people entered and left the square. Television camera trucks, he avy and hot with arclights, were stationed by the obelisk to te levise the moving scene to the world. MEANWHILE, the recogni tion party had gathered out side the Pope's room and im mediately following the Pont iff’s death had entered to per form their sad duty. The party was composed of Eugene Cardi nal Tlsserant, Dean of the Col lege of Cardinals; Cardinal Aio lsi Masella; Msgr. Federico Callorl di Vignali, Prefect of the Apostolic Palaces; Msgr. Nasalli Rocca; Archbishop En rico Dants, Prefect of Papal Masters of Ceremonies; Dr. Mario Pontana, director of Va tican health services; and tha three physicians who had at tended the Pope—Drs. Antonio Gaebarrlni, Piero Mazzoni and Pietro Vaidonl. It was then announced that there would be several depar tures from traditional usage re garding the Pope's lying insta te. His body was not taken to ' the Sistine chapel as is cus tomary, nor was it vested in the usual white cassock and red mozzetto (short cape). Instead the body was dressed in full pontifical vestments and lay in state in the sitting room of the papal apartments. God Love You MOST REVEREND FULTON J. SHEEN The Catholic native population of Africa has doubled within ten years, but the number of priests has become proportionately less. For example: in West Africa, the increase of Catholics within ten years was 141 per cent, but priests increased by only 85 per cent. In Central Africa, the number of Catholics was up 100 per cent, while the increase of priests for the same period was only 73 per cent. There is only one priest for every z,400 Catholics in Rwanda and Burundi, one for every 2,200 in Nigeria and one for every 2,100 in Ghana, If space permmod, even more startling statistics could be given for the shortage of priests in Latin America. Now, what can we do about it? We know we are ordained for the Church and only for canonical and juridical reasons are assigned to a diocese or parish: "My parish is the world." Do we, as we ascend the altar, ever think of the faithful of Brazil or the faithless of China clinging to our chas ubles? When we lift the Host, do we not lift up Christ in His Mystical Body, heavy with the gravitational drag of souls who know not Its mystery of love? You may not be able to go on the Missions, but you can, never theless, make a small sacrifice every month to help educate a seminarian. One bishop from Africa Informed us he could take only 15 out of 300 applicants for the seminary because he lacked the means. There is hardly a priest in any large diocese In the United States who could not sacrifice $250 a year to prolong his priesthood in another land. Our priesthood is eternal once we receive it, as the soul is immortal once breathed into a body. But mothers, after having gone through the labor of birth, continue their motherhood in their daughters. To us priests, silo, it is given to immortalize our priesthood on earth by making acts of self-denial, until we see a spiritual son standing before the altar with a host and chalice in his hands, We have Just returned from Rome, where there was a plinitive pita for new aeminariei and prieits. What a beautiful opportunity to make up for our Imperfection! by responding to this appeal. Most of us have cara or televiiloni. In the Name of Christ Our High Priest, let us also have a prleat whom we are supporting in the Missions. Send whatever sacrifices you can to The Society of St. Peter the Apostle for Native Clergy through The Society for the Propagation of the Faith.
