Cardinal Mindszenty Trial Provokes Word From Pope
Pope Pius XII voiced bitter grief over Cardinal Mindszenty's trial and life sentence in a somber consistory. He said civil governments must resist unjust laws when they infringe divine and human rights, calling the imprisonment a grave outrage shocking the church and human dignity. Cardinal Spellman denounced persecutors in Havana as anti Christian tyrants. Suspicion grows over Eastern European church politics and potential shifts in Soviet bloc alignments.
