Abstract

The article reports on an open letter sent to Rome newspapers by the Vatican's Swiss Guards asking the Holy See for a pay raise. It states that the Vatican's Swiss Guards get free quarters, uniforms, food, cigarettes and beer, making them better financially than the average Italian civil servant. However, the Vatican released the complaining recruits from the terms of their enlistment contracts to avoid discontent.
