Show POLICY OF LEO : IS UNCHANGED Personality of the New Pope Cuts No Figure. - Rome, July 29. Cardinal Logue, archbishop of Armagh, had an interview inter-view today with Cardinal Gibbons. When asked today what he thought of the objections frequently mentioned against Cardinal (Jotti being elected pope cm the ground that his being a. member of a religious orUer would prevent pre-vent him frctn dealing in a broad spir-I spir-I it with Catholic problems in America and Great Britain, Cardinal Logue said to a representative of the Associated Asso-ciated Press: "It is absurd. Cardinal Gotti was formerly zlu inter-nuncio and has mixed with the representatives of the various powers. He knows the prevailing prevail-ing conditions as well . as anybody. Just because he is a Carmelite it does not follow that he is narrow minded. Moreover, it is unreasonable to attribute attrib-ute too much weight to the personality person-ality of the new pone. International matters and internal policy are now almost al-most invariably settled by committees commit-tees of cardinals who. certainly under the late Pope Leo, have directed their departments just as much as the heads of departments of a civil government. But, whoever may be pope, it is not likely that he will attempt to make any changes in policy without being careful to take the service of those commissions commis-sions which have heretofore directed the policy of the Vatican." - |
