ROM, April lS-lt is understood that
the Pope is about to issue to the episcopate
in the United States stringent instructions
regarding divorce This official pronounce
ment is to be issued probably on account
Of the frequency Of divorce in the United
States especially since it has begun to
affect Roman Catholics.
The matter has caused the Pope and his
advisers deep concern, From May mar
riages between Roman Catholics in Amer
ioa will not be accounted valid by the
Church unless they have been celebrated
by a duly authorized priest.
This in itself il is hoped will put a check
upon divorce, The Pope holds further
that more vigorous regulations are needed.
