...allow the playing of Spain's national anthem at a ceremonial dinner at the famous Basque monastery of Aránzazu (the abbot said the music was not "religious"), or in Pope John's own studied neglect to include a single reference to Franco in the papal message dedicating Franco's beloved Valley of the Fallen mausoleum church (TIME, April 13, 1959) as a basilica. In filling two Spanish sees, Pope John has twice passed over Franco's original "short list" of suitable episcopal candidates to select Spanish-born bishops from the Vatican...
...choking off their ministry. If the causes of the discontent were ignored, the Basque priests warned, the consequences "can harm the church in our diocese for generations to come." Neither the pre-censored civil press nor the uncensored church press made a reference to the petition until the Papal Nuncio brushed off the letter as an ill-considered act of "some of our wayward sons." Spain's newspapers then rushed to tell their readers that the highly controversial letter, whose existence they never had admitted, had been "rejected." Last week a second petition was reported collecting signatures among...
...longest papal junket (more than 100 miles round trip) since Pius IX's horsecarriage tour of the Roman countryside in 1857, Pope John XXIII, 79, climbed into the armchair seat of his Chrysler, donated by U.S. Catholics, at 6:15 a.m. one morning last week. The purpose of the trip: a sentimental journey to the seminary at Roccantica where 56 years ago he said the second mass of his career. After admiring the olive-groved Sabine Hills through the plexiglas top of his speeding (frequently at more than 60 miles per hour) limousine, the Pope was greeted by townspeople...
...managed to get there by crossing to the West zone before the ban went into effect. Many were disappointed that the Pope failed to attend. Travel-hungry Pope John was reported to have at last decided that such a precedent-breaking foreign excursion would inevitably bring demands for more papal visitations. One feature of the conference was the celebration of the early Christian custom of agape, or love feast, in Munich parish homes and in its famed beer hall, the Hofbräuhaus, where some 900 people watched the papal legate, Gustavo Cardinal Testa, move smilingly among them, passing...
...born Poussin did almost all his work outside his native land. After studying anatomy in a Paris hospital, he set out for Rome, where he filled notebook after notebook with sketches of ancient ruins and nearly starved to death. Once, when the Vatican was at odds with Cardinal Richelieu, papal troops tried to beat the Frenchman up. He caught syphilis, and partly to avoid further temptation, married the daughter of the pastry cook who nursed him back to health. The disease left its mark-trembling hands and eventual paralysis-but at 45 Poussin was at last being hailed as France...
