VATICAN CITY, (AP) Pope Pius XII yesterday told Vice President Nixon he was comforted by the way President Eisenhower and the American people practice good will to settle international disputes.
But he added there is still a great need for defense measures and for charters and policy statements "rounded out with solemn sanctions."
Nixon interrupted his African tour to call on the Pope and deliver a letter to the Pontiff from the President. Nixon said the Vatican would make the letter public.
The Pope received Nixon, his wife and members of their party at a private audience in his study.
In a seven-minute formal address he read, the Pontiff said:
"It is comforting to note the reliance placed by your illustrious President and generous people, as well as by those in every corner of the globe who share your hopes and fears, on the simple, informal, unfeigned expression of good will as a key instrument for the settlement of international disputes."
