an interview with prominent English prelate con-
corning the appointment OF an American cardinal
The prelate IN question reviews recent happenings.
particularly the encyclicai OF Pope Leo against
American!sm, which, he says, was written by Car
dinal Mazzela. This enCyclical is said to have
displeased Cardinal Gibbons, who, thinking 1t
inspired by Cardinal RampolIe, Joined the Aus
trian and German cardinals IN defeating Ram
polia at the last conclave. The prelate says Il
was thought that Archbishop Ireland would be
made a cardinal when Pope Leo called him from
Paris where he was representing the United States

adds Is now unlikely, in spite Of the fact that
President Roosevelt has urged another American
prelate TO approach tho Vatican privetely 10 this

Storer Incident. and II Archbishop Ireland should
receive the red hat the appointment must be
ascribed to his personal merit.
