here at the start of services honoring Samuel Cardinal Stritch, Archbishop of
Chicago and retiring chairman of the National Catholic Welfare Conference, on
the occasion of the 25th anniversary of his consecration as a bishop. More

McGuigan of Toronto, Canada, who with Cardinal Stritch were elevated at the
Consistory last February, were present. The Vatican was represented by the
Most Rev. Amleto Cicognani, apostolic delegate to the United States. Cardinal
Stritch was appointed to the bishopric of Toledo, O., Nov. 30, 1941. Credit
