The Pontiff said the cause of peace tias taken a "bitter step backwards" in recent days. "Too much blood has been Calls on Free People to Close Ranks Rapidly unjustly shed! Too much mourning and slaughter has been suddenly renewed! The slender thread of confidence which had begun to reunite peoples and gave some com¬ fort to souls appears to be broken. "Suspicion and distrust have dug a deeper abyss of separa¬ tion between peoples. Says World SUrtied "The entire world is right¬ ly startled at the hasty resort to the use of force, which all parties had condemned thou¬ sands of times, as a means of settling disputes and ensuring the triumph of right" The Pope spoke immediate¬ ly upon his return to the Vati¬ can from his Summer resi¬ dence at Castelgandolfo. His 1,600-word speech con¬ tained an apparent condemna¬ tion of the lack of Western unity in the Suez crisis. He deplored a "thinning in the ranks of those on whose authority, union and goodwill it was felt much reliance could be placed for the pro¬ gressive re-establishment of concord among nations in jus¬ tice and true freedom." Without mentioning Russia by name, the Pope criticized those who violate the basic laws of humanity and thus "deprive themselves of the right to speak in the name of humanity, of justice and of peace."

"The entire world is right¬ ly startled at the hasty resort to the use of force, which all parties had condemned thou¬ sands of times, as a means of settling disputes and ensuring the triumph of right"
The Pope spoke immediate¬ ly upon his return to the Vati¬ can from his Summer resi¬ dence at Castelgandolfo.
His 1,600-word speech con¬ tained an apparent condemna¬ tion of the lack of Western unity in the Suez crisis.
He deplored a "thinning in the ranks of those on whose authority, union and goodwill it was felt much reliance could be placed for the pro¬ gressive re-establishment of concord among nations in jus¬ tice and true freedom."
Without mentioning Russia by name, the Pope criticized those who violate the basic laws of humanity and thus "deprive themselves of the right to speak in the name of humanity, of justice and of peace."
