BIZ United Pr~ss
ROME, Dec. 17-Pope Plus held
secret consistory at the vatican
today.
In his allocution to the cardinals,
he expressed pleasure with the sue

The cardinals, with their attend

Immediately after their arrival at
the vatican in their automobiles and
closed carriages. They awaited the
pope's arrival there, chatting with
each other.
The pope, accompanied by his
Swiss guard and members of tine
noble guard. entered the hall. A
bell had announced his arrival. He
advanced to the throne III the front
of the room.
A short prayer was said by his
holiness and Monsignor Cacci-Do-
minoni, master of the papal house,
hold, gave the signal for all except
the members of the sacred college
to retire.
When the pope and his cardinals
were closeted alone. he read his al
locution to them and then left the
hall, accompanied by his court.
Customarily, two consistories are
held each year, one on Tuesday and
a pubic one the following Thursday,
but as no cardinals we're to be Gre
ated this year, the pope will omit
the public sessions and moved the
secret consistory up to Monday.
