HIS TALK WITH THE POPE.

lieve the corner stone of modern civ
ilization must continue to be religion
and morality"
HIS TALK WITH THE POPE.
The President told some Of his expert
ences with the Catholic Church in the
Philippines and then said that on the
occasion of his visit 10 Rome, he ventured
to say to the Pope that while in America
the sentiment was strong for the
separation OF church and state there was
nothing In the American government or
American people that opposed the church
Of ts highest development: that in no
European country had the Catholic
Church nourished as It had In America:
that In this country tho Catholic Church
received from the government and state
officials only that treatment accorded to
every other denomination.
81 added" continued the President
chat this was not to be taken as an
indication that every government and
state official was other than anxious to
encoura ge the establishment and maintcn-
ance Of churches. and that their influence
, might be broadened throughout the
| land.
