tween the approaches of the
Cardinals. To each he gave a
smile and a few moments of
private consideration. To the
oldest Cardinals he gave a
longer time.
This was the third act of
homage by the Cardinals since
Pope Paul was elected yester-
day at the third balloting ses-
sion of the conclave.
Space Age Noted
The Pope sat on a throne
once used by Pope Plus XII, who
died in 1889. At his side was
the Rt. Rev. Msgr. Enrico
Dante. papal master Of cere-
monies who has served four
popes in that capacity-Pius
XXI, Plus XII, John XIII and
now Pope Paul.
Promising to continue along
the path of social justice traced
by Pope John and other pom
tiffs, the new Pope, speaking in
Latin, noted this was a space
age and said:
1.-THE certain order Of love
-. demands of all men a more
equal solution of social prob
lens, demands aid and care for
underdeveloped countries in
which the level of life is not
often worthy Of human dignity;
requires a voluntary study on a
universal scale for the improve
ment of the conditions of life.
1.-THE new epoch, which the
conquests Of space have opened
to mankind will be singularly
blessed by the Lord if men know
truly how to recognize each
other as brothers rather than
competitors, and build a world
order in sanity fear of God,
in respect Of his laws, in the
sweet light of charity and mu-
tual collaboration"
Appeals for Peace
"Our work, with the aid Of
God, also will be to undertake
every effort for the conserva-
ton Of the great good Of peace
among peoples" Pope Paul
said.
He followed these words with
an appeal for world peace.
Spoken before Michelangelo's
great fresco of the Last Judg-
ment, it recalled a similar ap-
peal by Pope John last october
soon after he opened the Vati-
can Ecumenical Council.
On that occasion Pope John,
addressing the representatives
of many nations, dramatically
referred to the last judgment
and said the worlds leaders
must sacrifice in the interest of
peace and render an account
to God their Supreme
Judge"
Today Pope Paul put his own
peace appeal in these words:
"At this moment, in which
all mankind looks to this chair
of truth, and to him who has
been called to represent on
earth the Divine Savior, we
can only renew the appeal for
loyal, frank, willing under
standing which unites mankind
in reciprocal and sincere re-
Spect."
Invitation Renewed
He also renewed Pope Johns
invitation to undertake every
effort to save mankind, by
favoring the peaceful develop
ment of rights bestowed by God
and by facilitating the spiritual
and religious life so that it be
carried to the most vivid and
profound alteration of the
Creator"
Pope John had conceived his
Ecumenical Council as an in
strument for promoting the
cause Of Christian unity.
Pope Paul made it clear
today that he intended to
carry forward the same spirit
Of Christian unity. He said:
Our pontifical service will
be to pursue with every COM
mitment the great work
launched with so much hope
and with bright expectation by
our predecessor John XIII:
The achievement of that ut
unum STINT so awaited by all
and for which he (John) Of
fered his life"
The Latin phrase cut unum
sint," that they may be one, is
a Biblical reference that Chris
tianity should be united.
On his death bed Pope John
had said he was offering his
life as a sacrifice for his coun-
Gil. for world peace. and for
Christian unity.
Pope Paul spoke feelingly
about unity.
He said that "the common
aspiration to reintegrate the
