...eight largest States exchange diplomatic representatives with the Vatican. Brazil runs neck-&-neck with Italy as the world's largest Catholic State, although its 40,000,000 Catholics are shepherded by only 6,000 priests.* Bishop Ryan and Father Sheehy, looking businesslike to South American churchmen, who still wear their soutanes in the street, visited papal nuncios and hierarchs, talked with them in Italian and French, found everywhere that Latin American prelates look to the U.
