Pope Avoids Direct Plea as Poland Protests Grow
During his eight day visit to Poland John Paul II made no direct appeal to Western governments to lift sanctions imposed after martial law. The pope spoke amid large demonstrations by workers supporting the now outlawed Solidarity union and a 50 000 person march past the Communist Party headquarters the largest anti government protest since martial law began on December 13 1981. A government official said authorities were surprised by the pope’s blunt remarks and the protests unleashed during his tour. Both church officials and Lech Walesa urged calm.
