Describes the reactions of the Vatican's emissaries to occupied European countries to the treatment of the Jews. The anti-Jewish legislation was at times criticized, less for the Jews than for Jews who converted to Catholicism. The diplomats showed sympathy for the Jews, and were helpful in individual cases of Jews facing deportation, but there was no pattern of protest against the deportations. Although the Vatican's Secretary of State Maglione was well-informed on the plight of the Jews, his major concern was a desire to preserve diplomatic relations with Nazi Germany. As a result, Vatican diplomacy failed to pursue the noble goals it claimed to espouse.
