the Soviet newspaper, Literatur

of the aristocracy who, it said,

The movement not only has
the full support of His Holiness
Pope Plus XII, said the newspa-

The newspaper further said
that the Pope "has even come out
of his Vatican prison to find out
for himself how things are going

bring peace and hope to the
world only if they are joined
with an acceptance of the
Risen Christ and His message,
His Holiness Pope Plus XII said
in his Easter message
The world is still living in a
night of anguish, the Pope said,
but it is night of preparation
for the dawn. Already faint
glimmer of dawn appears in the
East, announcing the coming of
the earth's resurrection to a day
of glory and peace.
But, he said. "it is essential to
remove the stone from the tomb
in which men desired to bury

Making the keynote of his talk
the Pasehal hymn, "Haes dies
guam fecit Dominus This is the
day the Lord hath made)', the
Pontiff demonstrated that what
he was about to say was the
message the Church had carried
in her liturgy for centuries.
After the invitation to rejoice,
addressed to the heavenly choirs
of angels. to earth. to our Moth
er the Church, and to all nations,
the attention of the liturgical
hymn is fixed on the night which
preceded Our Lords Resurrec-

they can offer to society is in
valuable.
"One may we'll shudder at the
flood of error and false moral
standards let loose by the com.

said.

with a prayer that God may
