jure their little brains, for they were
exceedingly nervous and sensitive and

SPANISH paddock" BILL
OPPOSED BY VATICAN
Holy See Wants Concordat Re-
vision Before Legislation

MADRID, Nov. 19.-The discussion of
the paddock" bill was begun in the
chamber of deputies today. The Carl
lists opposed the measure The bill as
originally drawn forbade the entrance
OF new orders until a revision of the
concordat had been accomplished or a
definite law on the subject passed.
The senate adopted an amendment
limiting the period of interdiction to
two years. This was viewed as con-
cesson to the opposition by the pre-
mier.
The Vatican has taken the position
that, in view of the pending negotia-
tions, the government should not adopt
any, 1egisla ton having a bearing on diff
ferences that might be adjusted in a
revision.
CanaIejas has persiste1y refused to
yield, insisting that his program of
religious reform and liberty was a mat
ter wholly apart from anything that
could be properly the subject of dipIo-
matte discussion between Madrid and
