profound pain, my disquiet, my prayer concerning the fresh, bloody confrontations which have developed over these recent days in South Africa, and which worry all Africa and the entire world." Renewed racial strife in South Africa claimed at least 65 lives in the five days preceding the pope's remarks. "May God receive all those victims in his peace," the pope said. "May he inspire all to wisdom, just conduct, a feeling of respect for the dignity of others and a will for peace, so as to put an end, without delay, to

"Almost every day the pope informs himself of the development of the situation. He asks God to inspire all with feelings of peace, of justice and respect for everyone. "The issue of apartheid — which is inadmissible — touches the fundamental rights of man. And the pope wishes to defend the body of rights of man, without which there is no dignity. • See also pages 2 and 3.
