the late Archbishop Katzer of Milwaukee.
In speaking of the choosing Of a success
sor to / hop Messmer at Green Bay,
Bishop SlhWebach said that practically
the same proceeding would be gone thru
as in the choosing of an archbishop. The

being the favorite choice. Then the bish-
ops Of the archdioces. who are Right
Revs. Els, Schwebach and Messner, will
meet and choose three names to be sent
to the congregation of the propaganda.
More interest is being taken in this cleo
ton than in that Of archbishop, on ac-
count Of the number Of possible candi-
dates The most prominent is Very Rev.
John ]. Fox, vicar general Of the Green
Bay diocese. Another possible candidate is
Very Rev. Mr.. Schinner of Milwaukee. The
Poles desire that the new bishop be ap-
pointed out of the list of Polish priests and
the name Of Rev. Father Kruzka of Ripon
has been mentioned
