Vatican Silence Shows Displeasure

Vatican officials greeted Jacqueline Kennedy's marriage to Aristotle Onassis with silent disapproval while privately hoping for a clear basis to decide. The issue hinges on whether Onassis received a Greek Orthodox ecclesiastical annulment of his first marriage, which would affect the Vatican's stance.

The Vatican would prefer confirmation that the Greek church annulled the first marriage to ease acceptance of the union.
