Mr.. FAIRBANKS TALKS.
Ex-Vice President Gives Interview Ex-
planning Incident in ROme-Re-
ceives Cable Messages

ROME. Feb. 10-Former Vice Presi-
dent Fairbanks has received many cable
messages from the United States con-
graduating him on his attitude toward
the Vatican.
One of them says: Your dignitied
vindication of American liberation is
hearty endorsed"
Another says: The entire Protestant
world cOngratulates you
Other messages have been received
from various places in Italy, among
them one saying:
Greatly admire your attitude in pre-
ferring to speak to the evangelical peo-
pie of Rome rather than submit to Nati-
can intolerance"
The Tribuna in commenting on the in
cident says:
Former President Roosevelt is ex-
vited to speak before the Methodists. We
shall see if he prefers the Methodists or
the Pope"
Several versions of the incident are in
circulation. but Mr.. Fairbanks himself
gives the following:
when on Sunday | reached the Amer
lean college, Mgr. Kennedy said he had
been advised from the Vatican that it
would be impossible for me to have
papal audience if l delivered my contem-
plated address in the American Meth
odist church.
L replied that | had agreed to make
an address and was obliged to keep the
engagement: that | had always exercised
the privilege to speak to Catholics and
Professionals alike whenever they desired
and whenever it was possible, and there
fore the arrangement for the audience I
regarded as ended.
Il spoke to the students of the Ameri-
can college along patriotic and moral
lines. giving the Catholic church a full
share of the credit for the great work
accomplished by all the Christian
churches The subject of the papal audi
ence was suggested again by Mgr Ken
needy. Il little later.
He had received further instructions
in the meantime and said that if [ did
not speak III the Methodist church the
audience would hold good. | replied that
| appreciated the intended courtesy, but
the alternative was impossible. | would
sneak as announced, and thus would be
obliged to forego the audience with the
Pope.
when ] advised DR.. Triple, the pastor
of the Methodist church, he said that he
was ready to release me from the en-
gagement. but | answered that that was
impossible. Under the circumstances |
felt obliged to speak in fulfllment of
promise made before the papal audience
was arranged.
