By the way, meant to mention this yesterday, but please notice the page one article on Pope Piux XII urging union workers to shun violent revolutions, and at the same time denying he had somehow "wanted war".

The portion shown of this article doesn't say, and I can't really imagine, who would have charged the Pope with "wanting war" or what facts, if any, the charge was based on.

Anyone know?
