ALFONSO RESISTS
VATICAN MOVE

Madrid, June 24.-Today's meeting OF
the cabinet, presided over by King Al
fonso, resulted in determination of the
governments attitude in the face of the
double protest of the vatican and the
Spanish episcopate against the royal de-
cree of June q.
The decree amended the constitution
and ordered the edifices of non-Catholic
religious societies to display the insignia
for public worship The papal protests
were coupled with the negotiations De-
tween the government and Rome for the
revision of the eoncordat and recently
Premier Canalejas intimated that unless
the vatican changed its attitude the ne
gotiations would be broken off.
The vatican has now replied and set
ting forth that the decree is IN violation
of the concordat and the agreements OF
previous ministries declines catagorically
to continue the negotiations over the re-
vision until this peril is settled.
