NOTHING SMALL
IS De: SIRED BY
COL. ROOSEVELT


ry Del Val, through Thomas Kennedy,
rector of the American College in
Rome, gives the following version Of
the Roosevelt-yatcan incidents:
When all is said and done it was
a question of common courtesy The
Holy See did not impose upon Mr..
Roosevelt, as has been wrongly assert
cd, the condition of not approaching
Methodists or other non-Catholic reli-
gtous bodies in Rome There are sew
eral non-Catholic centres in the city
which do not behave in bitterly hos
tile and offensive manner toward the
Pope and towards everything that His
holiness and all Catholics hold most
dear.
The Methodist centre Systematically
joins hands with the worst and most
anti-clerical and anti-papal elements
in the city. and does so VIGOROUSLY
and in the most aggressive and most
insulting manner. Mr.. Roosevelt him
self has had mild and limited sample
of its attitude in the declaration just
published, and which he has felt bound
TO disayow
9rhe Holy See, after the unfortu-
nate Fairbanks incident, had every
reason to fear that Mr.. Roosevelt un-
'tttiHSty anu - tSAL'SA SooO4 iSfit'A
might be led into showing open sym
pathy and friendship for this hostile
centre of aggression against the Cath
Ollie Church in the heart OF the Cath
Ollie world. Consequently when Mr..
Roosevelt applied indirectly and con-
iidentially for an audience with His
Holiness the Pope, the wish was cour-
teously expressed that he would avoid
being dragged into the Objectionable
position of appearing publicly to sup
port the offensive campaign against
the Pope in his own residence.
Mr.. Roosevelt replied refusing all
conditions or agreements, which al
lowed the possibility of his accom-
plishina what would be offensive toI
His Holiness
This was amply confirmed by his
own secretary, MIR. OLouehlin, when
asked whether without any formal
promise or expressed condition Mr..
Roosevelt would. as matter OF fact,
not go to the Methodist centre, replied
that he could give no such assurance,
and that in his opinion Mr. Roosevelt
was Just the man to do 1t.
In view of this attitude the
audience became impossible.
1T is simply a question of commoni
courtesy. and surely common courtesy
is not Incompatible with the rights
and freedom OF an American citizen.
