...inclined to make. Church officials would like the Hungarians to offer Mindszenty a pardon and restore him briefly to his primatial see-but the Hungarians have evidently refused.

Last month the Soviet Union released Ukrainian Archbishop Josyf Slipyi from his long years in prison.

Only the Beginning. The Vatican regards Slipyi's release as only the beginning. "This was a simple act of personal respect by the Russian government for Pope John." says one Vatican official. "It also gives us hope that other negotiations will work out."
