...President deftly handled a question about his attitude toward Communist political parties in Europe. He said flatly that he would "prefer that Communism would be minimal in the Western world."

John Krol of Philadelphia and the Vatican's John Wright are both "princely" and "authoritarian." The ideological bias flaws judgment in some instances. It is dubious whether Belgium's Leo Jozef Suenens was the non-Italian "front runner in the early 1970s" or that another liberal, Holland's Bernard Alfrink, will be "one of the most influential" conclave members...
