Personal code telegram from Thomas J. Kiernan to Joseph P. Walshe (Dublin) (No. 47)

HOLY SEE, received 11 April 1944

Your telegram 33.1 Appeal has created a deep impression on Vatican. Cardinal Pizzardo said 'Ireland will save us', Cardinal Salotti2 that Taoiseach is a man of strength. Various Monsignores speak warmly. Same impression in general Religious Houses. A remarkably wide interest taken by ordinary people.
