CHURCH PROPOSAL
is AN ULTlMATUM.
Proposition of French Bishops Gives First
Promise of Separation Ad-
justment.

PARIS, Jan. 29.-The proposition
. which the French bishops, with the APP
prevail of the pope, have now submitted
to the government, seems to offer the
first real prospect of an adjustment.
While it involves material modification
of the position taken in the last papal
encyclical. it has all the appearance of
an ultimatum.
Whether the government will accept
Il settlement based upon the absolute
recognition Of the Roman hierarchy re-
mains to be seen.
Lease to Parish Priests.
The model contract which the bishops
have submitted provides for the virtual
lease of the churches in perpetuity to
the parish priests by the mayors, the
Movable by their successors. The
leases, which carry stipulation engag-
ing the authorities not to interfere with
the administration of church and parish
are invalid without the express ratitca-
ton of the bishop and become null the
moment the parish priest loses the bish-
ops authorization.
Episcopate Not Assembled.
The bishops must act together to in
sure the acceptance of contracts every
where or nowhere.
1t developed To-Day lnaL lne report
that Cardinal Richard only summoned
meetings of the regional assembIages of
bishops, to which the Pope's decision
was communicated.
The propositions made by the bishops
make is clear that no rent is to be paid
and that contracts must cover all the
religious edices i'll France or none.
Stirs Parliamentary Circles.
The bishops proposition created a stir
in parliamentary circles. The followers
of former Premier COmbes were loud III
their assertions that it was utterly unac-
ceptabIe but the more moderate repub-
publican groups were less emphatic and
there was general expectation that the
government would be forced to define
its position during the debate this after
ministerial bill providing for the sup
preston of declarations under the law
of 1881.
