...instance a gasman dresses up like an archbishop and makes one of the girls confess to him. Genet's idea is that the real archbishop, and other powerful men, are powerful only because other men imitate them in their fantasy lives. As the play continues, the masquerade gets more complicated. The pretenders become the men they have imitated, and their new power, in turn, depends on others who will imitate them. Mirror imagery and masquerade pervade every scene. There are no highpoints and no development; and the play never really ends, because the mirrors go on reflecting the same pattern...

Testa smoothly pointed out that the Pope had officially disavowed a protest prepared by a group of Ukrainian bishops at the council objecting to the presence of the Russians, tactfully brought up the subject of Archbishop Slipyi's long confinement. The Russians promised to do what they could, and last month notified Cardinal Bea that Slipyi would be freed. A fortnight ago, Bea's chief assistant. Dutch Monsignor Jan Willebrands, flew secretly to Moscow, escorted Slipyi by train to Vienna and then on to Rome...
...says one Vatican official. "It also gives us hope that other negotiations will work out." There is little doubt as to who would be the subjects of other negotiations: Hungary's Josef Cardinal Mindszenty. a political refugee in the U.S. legation at Budapest since the 1956 uprising, and Archbishop Josef Beran of Prague, who was seized by Czech Communists in 1950, has not been heard from since...
