Pope Pius today issued the following Easter message of peace to the world: Tho message of the church to the world at Easter is an eternal one. It is this: Christ has risen. But, though the mes-sagc is an old one, it has its application always to the newest events; hence it is a messago which always has new force. Christ rose to bring peace to the world. It is thus tho duty of his followers to strive to bring about peace. T pray and I desire all Khould pray that this Easter may bring peace to all the world. Tn our minds there rises first of all tho thought of two regions of the earth which most of all at tho S resent time stand in need of this lessing, the Balkans in the old world and Mexico in the new world. May Easter bring them pcaco. Maj all who control the destinies desti-nies of nations work to this end and with this peace may there come the inspiration into the minds of all men, and especially all rulers, that their ideal, which alone is tho guarantor of universal peace, should be "instauraro omnia in Christo let all things bo founded in Christ." |
