...thirds majority. The liberal favorites-theologically minded Leo Josef Suenens, 58, of Malines-Brussels, and Vienna's courtly, diplomatic Franziskus Konig, 57-would have to overcome the tra dition that Rome's bishop ought to be Italian. Genoa's Giuseppe Siri, 57, and Palermo's Ernesto Ruffini, 75, are skilled, articulate conservatives-but their lack of aperturismo makes many non-Italian cardinals shudder...
...first realize their own strength. Gradually, encouraged by the knowledge that the world was watching, they became emboldened. "We heard men dare to say things we'd privately been thinking for a long time ourselves," a U.S. bishop said. Britain's Archbishop T. D. Roberts remonstrated that the conservative Ernesto Cardinal Rufini could "get up in St. Peter's and say that Christ's bride, the Church, is already without spot or wrinkle?but I say she's still got bulges in all the wrong places...

Several years ago, he rebuffed a government demand that Finsider build a plant in job-starved southern Italy, instead vastly expanded its plants in Genoa before moving down the Boot. Manuelli also publicly opposed the nationalization of Italy...
...spent all his money on transportation to Rome, and reached the Vatican hungry. There was Pittsburgh's Bishop John Wright, who many Roman Catholic laymen believe will be the next U.S. cardinal. There was a former fisherman (Rufino Cardinal Santos of Manila) and a former count (Ernesto Sena de Oliveira of Portugal). There was Stefan Cardinal Wyszynski, Primate of Communist Poland, who raised a finger to his lips to hush those who were cheering him. There were, in all, 2,700 of them-the spiritual leaders of 500 million people. And in the rear of the procession, carried...
