...Roman Catholic priests of Spain had better climb off their motor scooters, put out their cigarettes, and stay away from soccer games and bullfights. So decreed Spain's primate, Enrico Cardinal Pla y Deniel, 80, in the bulletin of the Archbishopric of Toledo. "In the middle of the giddy life of the present time," wrote the cardinal, priests should preserve the "sacerdotal sanities." This means, in Spain at least, that they should always wear their long, skirted cassocks and "in cities of importance" must add the mantle (sotana) or at least the short cape (esclavina...
With Father Llanos' backing, Garcia got Primate of Spain Enrique Cardinal Pla y Deniel behind his campaign. He obtained the cardinal's signature, together with those of the Minister of Justice, the President of the Supreme Court and other top-ranking citizens, to a memorandum on prostitution listing a dozen tragic case histories, including that of a 14-year-old girl sold into white slavery by her mother for 700 pesetas ($17.50). The memorandum was sent to Franco, who replied through channels that he had "taken note" of it. Last week Franco ordered his Minister of Justice...

The exception is Ecclesia (circ. 17,000), official weekly organ of the Spanish Catholic Action group. Ecclesia owes its freedom to its powerful chairman, Enrico Cardinal Pla y Deniel, Archbishop of Toledo and Cardinal Primate of Spain, who is able to stand up for his rights as no Spanish journalist can. Last week Ecclesia Editor Jesus Iribarren, 42, a Basque priest who is the cardinal's journalistic right hand, used the weekly's unique freedom to denounce...
...flossiest weddings that Spain had seen in years. Wearing a Balenciaga faille gown, with a veil sweeping down from a diamond and pearl diadem, the willowy brunette bride marched up the aisle of the Royal Chapel, of El Pardo Palace to face Enrique Cardinal Pla y Deniel, Roman Catholic Primate of Spain. Standing beside the Marqués, Cristobal Martinez Bordiu Ortega y Bascaran, 28, who wore the red-and-cream uniform of the Order of "the Holy Sepulchre, Carmen said in a clear, ringing voice, "Si yo quiero" Following an old Spanish custom, the cardinal presented her with...
