...paradoxical prelate of his day arrived in Rome last week, TIME'S Vatican Correspondent William Rospigliosi was so eager to see him that he all but climbed a wall of the visitor's residence to get a glimpse. Next day Rospigliosi saw Poland's Stefan Cardinal Wyszynski closer up for a background talk. From Warsaw two TIME correspondents relayed their findings on the publicity-shy cardinal to the Bonn bureau, which incorporated exhaustive research among Polish refugees in Germany. In Pittsburgh TIME'S correspondent interviewed U.S. travelers who had recently seen Wyszynski. Result: the first comprehensive...
...return of Gomulka and the release of Cardinal Wyszynski brought a new era of cooperation between church and state; religious instruction was readily available again for any who wanted it, and Catholic parents rushed to register their children in such numbers that Communists began to talk about a "holy war." The Warsaw newspaper Trybuna Ludu reported that in a school near Lublin "no child wants to sit beside the daughter of the secretary of the district Party Committee.

The result, which surprised even the Communists, was no indication of how the Polish people feel about Communism: it merely showed how much they preferred the Polish brand of Communism to Soviet intervention. Roman Catholic Cardinal Wyszynski, recently freed from a Communist prison, had quietly advocated support of the party ticket, and his word was obviously effective in a land perhaps 95% Roman Catholic. This way Poland got a new Parliament, dominated by Communists, but with Democratic, Peasant and Catholic parties represented, which was far more than the Soviet...
...these terms, Party Secretary Gomulka has a mandate to make a clean sweep of Stalin ism and Stalinists. They had battled him during the campaign with clandestine leaflets, smears, whispers, and every other trick in the agitator's manual. They had pictured a pygmy Gomulka beside a huge Cardinal Wyszynski. Now it was time for a reckoning. But instead of rushing to make the changes demanded by his enthusiastic supporters. Gomulka counseled caution. There was still danger of provoking the Russians. Radio Moscow warned Poland last week: "National Communism is nothing but a crafty form of bourgeois nationalism." The press...
