They complain cigars irritate throats, vegetables are scarce, and Cuba’s agriculture plan yields no vegetables.

Vatican Redraft Aims To Clarify Freedom Of Conscience
The Vatican Ecumenical Council has redrafted its declaration affirming the right of every man to follow conscience in religious matters and plans a final vote next Tuesday.
