Right & Duty. It seemed doubtful, despite the fuss, whether Munoz Marin would get much relief from the Vatican. Last winter, at a diocesan synod of Rome (TIME, Feb. 8), Pope John XXIII asserted the right and even duty of the church to advise the faithful on how to vote in elections. In practice, the Vatican seems to prefer that this right be exercised with great restraint by the hierarchy of the United States, to which the Puerto Rican bishops belong. But 90% Catholic Puerto Rico, though a part of the U.S., has a Spanish-speaking population and Spanish traditions...

...rebuff at La Coruña is the latest in series that apparently began with the accession of Pope John XXIII two years ago.

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...
