Title: Pope Paul VI's first year.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-3111 POPE PAUL VI’S FIRST YEAR (First of a Series of Two Panels) VATICAN CITY -- On June 19,1963, Giovanni Battista Cardinal Montini, Archbishop of Milan, was elected Pope and became the first pontiff in 350 years to take the name of Paul. Top row, left to right, shows the Pope’s coat of arms; the papal tiara being placed on his head by Alfred Cardinal Ottaviani during the coronation rites in St. Peter’s Basilica on June 30; his first visit outside of Vatican City -- the first of many he was to make in following the example of his predecessor, John XXIII; and Paul VI’s historic meeting with President John F. Kennedy (July 2). During that audience he praised Mr. Kennedy for his efforts for world peace and racial equality. On learning of the President’s assassination on Nov. 22, the pontiff broadcast a special message praying for the peace of his “elect soul” and lauding his devotion to “the great causes of humanity.” Bottom row, left to right; first picture shows Pope Paul at a special audience in October with Protestant, Eastern Orthodox and Anglican observers to the Second Vatican Council. Early in his reign he announced his decision to continue the Council inaugurated by John XXIII and stressed that Christian unity was one of his major concerns. Second picture was taken in November as he led some 180 members of the American hierarchy -- including Joseph Cardinal Ritte of St. Louis, Albert Cardinal Meyer of Chicago, James Francis Cardinal McIntyre of Los Angeles, and Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York -- in prayers for the success of the Council. This occurred shortly before Pope Paul formally ratified the epochal Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy which was approved by the Council Fathers at the close of the second session. The third picture was taken in January as the Pope left Rome for his momentous pilgrimage to the Holy Land. He became the first pontiff to ever to travel by air and the first since St. Peter to set foot on soil hallowed by the footsteps of Christ.

Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-31289 POPE VISITS ROME’S OLDEST DISTRICT ROME -- Enthusiastic pilgrims swarm around Pope Paul VI as he pays a short visit to the Church of Santa Maria in Trastevere, Rome’s oldest district which borders Vatican City. The pontiff was en route to the papal summer villa at Castel Gandolfo in the Alban Hills about 15 miles southeast of Rome. He told the crowd that he had come to Trastevere “to honor the Madonna, to whom the oldest church in Rome is dedicated” and “to meet the people.” Unconfirmed reports said that while at the villa the Pope would work on his first encyclical and that it will deal with family planning.

Title: Photo highlights of 1963.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-30361 PHOTO HIGHLIGHTS OF 1963 For Release: Thursday, Dec. 26, or later LEFT PANEL Top Left: President Kennedy’s body is carried to funeral services and burial in Arlington Cemetery. In his short term, the young Chief Executive stemmed fears of a Roman Catholic in the White House and was widely hailed for moving the nation toward solution of its racial problem and, by personal example, for furthering under-standing among all religions. His assassination called attention to what numerous religious leaders described as a dangerous degree of hate, arrogance and prejudice and nationwide complacency. Top Right: Death of Pope John XXIII. Large crowds kept a death watch in front of St. Peter’s Basilica at Vatican City. For his concern for all men, for his “opening the window” to renewal of the Roman Catholic Church, the pontiff was eulogized by leaders of virtually all religions. Middle Left: Devotional prayer and Bible reading in public schools was declared unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court. Most of the nation complied, though there was scattered objection in eastern states and outright refusal to stop school devotions in some Southern areas. Middle Right: A first National Conference on Religion and Race solidified the Protestant, Orthodox, Roman Catholic and Jewish thrust against discrimination and segregation. Leaders at the historic January meeting in Chicago included (from left) Archbishop William E. Cousins of Milwaukee, Wis., chairman of the Social Action Department of the National Catholic Welfare Conference; J. Irwin Miller, then president of the National Council of Churches; Albert Cardinal Meyer, Archbishop of Chicago; Dr. Julius Mark, then president of the Synagogue Council of America; Dr. Fred S. Buschmeyer, secretary of the United Church of Christ, and Bishop Stephen G. Spottswood of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Washington, D.C. Bottom Left: A 16-member delegation from Russian Orthodox, Baptist, Lutheran, Armenian and Georgian Orthodox Churches visited the U.S. in March under auspices of the National Council of Churches. Bottom Right: Religion’s deepening role in the fight for racial justice was exemplified in the dramatic 210,000-strong “March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom” on Aug. 28. Participation by Protestants, Orthodox, Catholics and Jews exceeded all advance expectations. RIGHT PANEL Top Left: As at the first session, the 1963 second session of the Second Vatican Council featured attendance by Protestant and Orthodox delegate-observers. Pope Paul VI is shown here with (far right) Bishop Fred Pierce Corson of Philadelphia, president of the World Methodist Council; to the Pope’s immediate right is Augustin Cardinal Bea, president of the Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity, and next to Cardinal Bea, Dr. Oscar Cullman of Basel, Switzer-land, theologian of the Swiss Reformed Church. Top Right: Ecumenicity was advanced at the World Council of Churches’ Fourth World Conference on Faith and Order at Montreal, Quebec -- a study session on Christian unity attended by Catholic observers. Together here at an ecumenical rally (from left) are Metropolitan Athenagoras of the Greek Orthodox Church in Canada; Paul-Emile Cardinal Leger, Catholic Archbishop of Montreal; Dr. W.A. Visser ’t Hooft, WCC general secretary, and Dr. George Johnston, principal of United Theological College, Montreal. 2nd Row, Left: Dr. Franklin Clark Fry (left) of New York and Lutheran Bishop Bo Giertz of Gothenburg, Sweden, lead a procession of nearly 800 marchers during the Lutheran World Federation’s Fourth Assembly at Helsinki, Finland, in August. Dr. Fry, president of the Lutheran Church in America and World Council of Churches leader, was succeeded as LWF president by Dr. Frederik A. Schiotz, head of the American Lutheran Church. In addition to discussions of Lutheran theology and the LWF’s worldwide program, the Assembly established a permanent foundation to further ecumenism through study of Catholicism and other confessions. 2nd Row, Right: An historic moment -- representatives of Eastern Orthodox Churches, at Rhodes, Greece, agreed unanimously to enter a “dialogue” with the Roman Catholic Church. Efforts to close the Orthodox-Catholic breach, dating back to 1054, also were highlighted late in the year with Pope Paul’s announced plan to travel to the Holy Land and prospects for a meeting with Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras of Istanbul, supreme leader of Eastern Orthodoxy. 3rd Row, Left: Noted Evangelist Billy Graham continued to draw large crowds at his rallies. Here, at Los Angeles Coliseum, he spoke to 47,655 during a three-week Southern California Crusade. 3rd Row, Center: Alleged persecution of Buddhists by the later-overthrown Ngo Dinh Diem regime in South Vietnam was dramatically underscored by an aged monk, the Rev. Quang Duc, one of seven who burned themselves to death in protest. 3rd Row, Right: Greater Protestant unity was discussed by representatives of six denominations at a March meeting of the Consultation on Church Union at Oberlin, Ohio. Seated, from left, are Charles Parlin, Methodist layman and Consultation secretary; Dr. James I. McCord, president of Princeton (N.J.) Theological Seminary and Consultation chairman; and the Rev. George G. Beazley Jr., of the International Convention of Christian Churches (Disciples of Christ). Standing, from left, are Protestant Episcopal Bishop Robert F. Gibson Jr., of Richmond, Va.; Dr. Eugene Carson Blake, chief executive officer of the United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A.; the Rev. David G. Colwell, United Church of Christ; Senior Bishop Reuben H. Mueller of the Evangelical United Brethren Church, and Methodist Bishop Glenn Randall Phillips of Denver, Colo. Bottom Left: The gavel of the presidency of the National Council of Churches was turned over, in December, by J. Irwin Miller, at left, Disciples of Christ layman from Columbus, Ind., to Senior Bishop Reuben H. Mueller of the Evangelical United Brethren Church. The bishop, a well-known ecumenist, was elected to a three-year term during the NCC’s triennial General Assembly at Philadelphia, Pa. Bottom Center: Key participants in the December meeting of the World Council of Churches’ Commission on World Mission and Evangelism at Mexico City were, at left, Church of South India Bishop Lesslie Newbigin, who directs the WCC’s mission and evangelism division, and Dr. W.A. Visser ‘t Hooft, WCC general secretary, both from Geneva, Switzerland. Mission policies were examined by some 200 leading churchmen from 48 nations. Bottom Right: A brief, informal meeting between Dr. Arthur Michael Ramsey, Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, at left, and James Cardinal McGuigan, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Toronto, highlighted a general theme of the Third World Anglican Congress at Toronto in August -- greater Christian unity.

Top Right: Dead at 81, Pope John is shown lying in state in St. Peter’s Basilica. The whole world mourned his passing. 2nd Row, Left: The new Pope, Paul VI, greets Protestant, Anglican and Orthodox observers attending the second session of Vatican II, which his predecessor had convoked for an inner renewal of the Church and to foster Christian unity.

After promulgating a constitution on the sacred liturgy and a decree on the communications media, the Pope surprised Council Fathers by announcing he would make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land in January, 1964. 3rd Row, Left: Shown here are two prelates whose release from Communist custody provided top stories during the year.

Visser ‘t Hooft, WCC general secretary; and Dr. George Johnson, principal of United Theological College, Montreal. RIGHT PANEL Top Left: Jubilant throng in St. Peter’s Square hail the election of Pope Paul VI, formerly Giovanni Battista Cardinal Montini, Archbishop of Milan. In his first address to the world, he pledged to continue his predecessor’s work for Christian unity, world peace, and social and economic justice. Top Right: Less than six months after the death of Pope John, the entire world was shocked and saddened by the assassination of John F. Kennedy, first Catholic President of the United States. In a special message, Pope Paul prayed for the peace of his “elect soul” and praised his devotion to “the great causes of humanity.” Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston, is shown officiating at the Funeral Mass in Washington for the dead President, a lifelong personal friend. Middle Left: July witnessed a memorable meeting in Vatican City between Pope Paul and President Kennedy. In a 40-minute conversation, they spoke of world problems, notably peace and racial justice. In a statement, the pontiff lauded the President and the U.S. government for their stand against racial discrimination. Middle Center: One of the most “sensational” papal audiences ever took place in March when Alexei I. Adzhubei, atheist son-in-law of Soviet Premier Khrushchev was received by Pope John. The Pope asked his visitor to convey to Mr. Khrushchev his thanks for the latter’s message of congratulations when the pontiff was chosen to receive the 1963 Balzan Peace Award. Pope John was the first pontiff to receive such an award. Middle Right: Pope Paul is shown with Archbishop Pierre Martin Ngo Dinh Thuc of Hue, after the military coup which overthrew the South Vietnamese government headed by the archbishop’s brother, President Ngo Dinh Diem, who was slain by troops along with his other brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu, the President’s chief adviser. The coup climaxed with a long series of anti-government demonstrations sparked by charges that the largely Catholic-controlled Diem regime was discriminating against the Buddhist majority. In August, the Pope had cautioned against attempts to “ignore the rights” of the Buddhist people and stressed that unity was the secret of the Catholic faith. Bottom Left: Catholics were among prominent religious leaders who took part in the historic first National Conference on Religion and Race at Chicago in January. Shown (from left) are: Archbishop William E. Cousins of Milwaukee, Wis., chairman of the Social Action Department of the National Catholic Welfare Conference; J. Irwin Miller, then president of the National Council of Churches; Albert Cardinal Meyer, Archbishop of Chicago; and Dr. Julius Mark, then president of the Synagogue Council of America. Bottom Right: The Church in America lost its foremost exponent of interracial justice with the death on Nov. 24 of 83-year-old Father John LaFarge, S.J. He is shown here with a leading Negro churchman, African Methodist Episcopal Bishop George W. Baber of Philadelphia, during the “March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom” supported by Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox and Jewish leaders and groups. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO

The beatification rites in Rome on March 17 were witnessed by some 4,000 Americans. Bottom Right: Catholic observers join Protestant and Orthodox at the World Council of Churches’ Fourth World Conference on Faith and Order at Montreal, Canada, in July. Shown together at an ecumenical rally held in connection with the Conference are (from left): Metropolitan Athenagoras of the Greek Orthodox Church in Canada; Paul-Emile Cardinal Leger, Archbishop of Montreal, Dr. W.A. Visser ‘t Hooft, WCC general secretary; and Dr. George Johnson, principal of United Theological College, Montreal. RIGHT PANEL Top Left: Jubilant throng in St. Peter’s Square hail the election of Pope Paul VI, formerly Giovanni Battista Cardinal Montini, Archbishop of Milan. In his first address to the world, he pledged to continue his predecessor’s work for Christian unity, world peace, and social and economic justice. Top Right: Less than six months after the death of Pope John, the entire world was shocked and saddened by the assassination of John F. Kennedy, first Catholic President of the United States. In a special message, Pope Paul prayed for the peace of his “elect soul” and praised his devotion to “the great causes of humanity.” Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston, is shown officiating at the Funeral Mass in Washington for the dead President, a lifelong personal friend. Middle Left: July witnessed a memorable meeting in Vatican City between Pope Paul and President Kennedy. In a 40-minute conversation, they spoke of world problems, notably peace and racial justice. In a statement, the pontiff lauded the President and the U.S. government for their stand against racial discrimination. Middle Center: One of the most “sensational” papal audiences ever took place in March when Alexei I. Adzhubei, atheist son-in-law of Soviet Premier Khrushchev was received by Pope John. The Pope asked his visitor to convey to Mr. Khrushchev his thanks for the latter’s message of congratulations when the pontiff was chosen to receive the 1963 Balzan Peace Award. Pope John was the first pontiff to receive such an award. Middle Right: Pope Paul is shown with Archbishop Pierre Martin Ngo Dinh Thuc of Hue, after the military coup which overthrew the South Vietnamese government headed by the archbishop’s brother, President Ngo Dinh Diem, who was slain by troops along with his other brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu, the President’s chief adviser. The coup climaxed with a long series of anti-government demonstrations sparked by charges that the largely Catholic-controlled Diem regime was discriminating against the Buddhist majority. In August, the Pope had cautioned against attempts to “ignore the rights” of the Buddhist people and stressed that unity was the secret of the Catholic faith. Bottom Left: Catholics were among prominent religious leaders who took part in the historic first National Conference on Religion and Race at Chicago in January. Shown (from left) are: Archbishop William E. Cousins of Milwaukee, Wis., chairman of the Social Action Department of the National Catholic Welfare Conference; J. Irwin Miller, then president of the National Council of Churches; Albert Cardinal Meyer, Archbishop of Chicago; and Dr. Julius Mark, then president of the Synagogue Council of America. Bottom Right: The Church in America lost its foremost exponent of interracial justice with the death on Nov. 24 of 83-year-old Father John LaFarge, S.J. He is shown here with a leading Negro churchman, African Methodist Episcopal Bishop George W. Baber of Philadelphia, during the “March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom” supported by Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox and Jewish leaders and groups. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO

The play which charges Pope Pius XII with failure to speak out against the Nazi extermination of the Jews was picketed by this "Ad Hoc Committee," predominantly Catholic. Three other sets of pickets appeared: a unit of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, which also protested the characterization of the Pope; a small group which supported Herman Shumlin producer-director of the controversial play; and 12 Swastika'd troopers of the American Nazi Party, who defended the Hitler regime by claiming the death of 6 millions was a "great lie."

As the Pope read the pledge to the 26 new Princes of the Church present, each responded, “I promise.” The cardinal received their new scarlet birettas -- three-peaked clerical caps -- but the ritual of conferring the traditional galero, or Red Hat, was eliminated. The galeros, best known insignia of a cardinal, were delivered later to the prelates at their Rome residence. Cardinal Shehan was the only American prelate among the 27 new cardinals named by the Pope. One of them was not present at the public consistory, Angel Cardinal Herrera y Oria, Bishop of Malaga, Spain. He will receive his Red Hat from Generalissimo Franco.
