Cardinal Roncalli Elected New Pope
VATICAN CITY, UFi — Angelo
Cardinal Roncalli was chosen
Pope Tuesday.
Roncalli, Patriarch of Venice,
becomes the 262nd supreme ruler
of the Roman Catholic Church
and its half-billion followers.
He is 76 years old.
Chosen in secret conclave by
the College of Cardinals, the now
Pontiff chose the name John
XXIII (23rd).
The bells of St. Peter’s Basilica
rang joyfully as the choice of the
new Pope was announced.
Thousands and thousands had
sped into the area on word that
white smoke had come from the
Sistine Chapel, indicating the
Cardinals had elected a Pope on
what apparently was the 12th
ballot of a conclave that started
Saturday.
Then the new Pope appeared on
the balcony to give his first bless
ing — “Urb et Orbi” — to the
city of Rome and to the world.
The throng roared again and
again:
Viva il Papa! Viva il Papa!
(“Long live the Pope!”)
The cry became a continuous
roar.
The Pontiff’s voice in the bless
ing rang out clear and strong over
the hushed multitude. There was
a tremendous response of “Amen.”
Not since Pope John XXII died
in 1334 hs the church had a Pope
John.
Never before has there been a
Pope with this high a number
— XXIII — after his name.
He succeeds Pope Pius XII, who
died after a reign of 19 years and
seven months, one of the longest
reigns in "-H^e history of the
church. ^
The new Italian Pope, in the
Roman Catholic view, is in direct
succession to St. Peter. His titles,
as officially listed by the church,
are:
“Bishop of Rome, Vicar of
Jesus Christ, Successor of the
Prince of the Apostles, Supreme
Pontiff of the Universal Church,
Patriarch of the West, Primate of
Italy, Archbishop and Metropoli
tan of the Province of Rome and
Nome-U-Wash
WASHERS 81 DRYERS
To Use Yourself — br
We'll Do It For You!
— Phone Black 1 —
Sovereign of the State of Vatican
City.”
The new Pope, bald-headed and
benign looking, has been one of
the most popular prelates in Italy.
He also has many friends abroad,
particularly in France, where he
about eight years as Papal Nun
cion.
He has a sturdy health and is an
untiring worker. His affable man
ners and quick-witted conversa
tion have made him a well known
figure at many diplomatic recep
I tions.
He was born as the son of a
farmhand in a small village in the
Province of Bergamo.
After graduating from the Ro
man Pontifical Seminary in 1904,
he became personal secretary of
the Bishop of Bergamo, Msgr. Re
dini-Tedeschi. In this post, which
he held until the Bishop’s death
in 1914, he acquired an early
knowledge of the administrtive
structure of the church and also
devoted himself to historical
studies.
During the war, he served first
as a sergeant in the Medical Corps
and later became an Army chap
lain.
For eight years he stayed in
Paris, and some in his entourage
say that he virtually “conquered”
the French capital. In 1953, Pope
Pius XII showed his recognition
for his Nuncio’s successful mission
by making him a member of the
College of Cardinals.
National Debt Is
At All-Time High
WASHINGTON, UP) — The total
national debt has reached a new*
all-time high of $280,951,000,000.
The Treasury disclosed yester
day that the total direct and guar
anteed debt shattered the old rec
ord last Thursday — the most re
cent day for which government
accounts have been tallied.
Until then the highest debt was
that recorded on December 31,
1955, when it was $220,821,100,
000.
The biggest chunk of the' direct
and guaranteed debt is $280,739,
000,000 owed directly by the
Treasury.
The rest is 112 million dollars
of securities sold by the Federal
Housing Administration which the
Treasury must pay in the unlike
ly event that FHA defaults.
In 1902 Mt. Pelee erupted and
wiped out the City of St. Pierre.
40,000 people lost their lives.
