Financier Giovanni Fummi registered at London's Claridge's; presumably he was executing a mission for the Vatican...
...publications. Undoubtedly, TIME knew the article would bring many letters of condemnation from bigoted, intolerant anti-Catholics who shut their eyes to the obvious sense of the Papacy's position on social issues which TIME summarized brilliantly.
