...Latin American governments can long survive without the support of the Catholic Church, and nowhere is this fact more important than in Argentina. There, the cardinal ranks third in official protocol and regularly moves in presidential circles.

In recent years, hardworking, hard-traveling Diplomat Casaroli has obtained the release from confinement of Czechoslovakia's Josef Cardinal Beran, arranged an agreement with the Hungarian government by which Pope Paul VI was able to fill a number of vacant dioceses, and negotiated a treaty with Tunisia regulating the rights of the Catholic minority in that Moslem country...
