By The United Press,
ROME, Aug. 12.-From high
Vatican sources it is learned that
Pope Plus is taking active steps for
The proclamation, in the very near
future, as part of the fundamental
dogma Of the Catholic church, the
doctrine of the assumption of the
Virgin Mary.
Should His Holiness succeed IN
carrying out his present desire, IL
will be the first time a dogma has
been proclaimed by a pope since
1S70. the last time previous TO that
being in 1854
Il is now known that since his re-
pent illness, Pope Plus, realizing that
his active pontihcate Is practically at
an end, has expressed the desire TO
some Of the highest dignitarles Of the
Catholic church at Rome TO round out
his career by this last great act.
During his entire pontihcate, Pope
Plus X. has devoted practically his
entire time, effort and energy to the
building up Of the religious side Of
The church only, paying little, II any
Attention, to the political side which
bad been the sole concern OF his pre-
decessor, Pope Leo Kill He has
promulgated reform after reform
amongst the clergy, he has sought to
ftamp out all the modernistic and
progressive tendencies that he says
would weaken the fundamental doc
trines of the church, and he has re-
organized all Of the congregations
and working machinery Of the re-
ligious side OF the Vatican.
The proclamation of this new dogma
gby him now, as the last great not
cf his pontificate would be In per-
fect harmony, he Is said TO feel with
an that he has sought TO accomplish
up TO date. II would stamp his en-
ktire pontihcate as one essentially and
WHOLLY religious.
As the matter now stands, Il if
learned on high authority that the
Agnitaries to whom His Holiness has
ifkpressed this desire have replied thai
there is no reason why it should moi

.of the church, IL has ever been ont

of this investigation, corroborated
also by more direct information from
Officers OF leading trust companies,
shows that these institutions exercise
guardianship over property Of the
dead valued at a great many millions
Iof dollars,
The trust officer Of one Of the large
trust companies was asked 10 explain
the reasons which have prompted SO
many successful and leading citizens
to enlist the services OF these insti-
tutons. 1.-THE list Of departed men Of
wealth." he said, "who have conveyed
the administration OF their estates
or the execution OF special trusts to
trust companies would be a most re-
lmarlsable one. II would be very In
teresting TO show how some of these
estates, especially where they include
lcentrally located real estate and office
building property, have increased in
value since the Wills were probated.
A large percentage Of these estates
Include bequests, endowments and
special trusts to provide for charit-
able, educational or philanthropic
work. In such cases the trust COM
panies, through their trust depart
ments, carry out with absolute fidelity
the wishes and plans of the testators.
We are called upon TO erect hospital
buildings and homes for the aged, to
secure artists 10 execute sculptures
Of public men and historic events, to
see that special chairs are maintain
ed for professorships In colleges. TO
support medical and surgical re-
search work In fact, the duties of
the trust officer are so multifarious
as to cover the whole field of human
activities and benefactions.
DOUBTLESS the prime reason which
actuates our leading men, and also
those who have comparatively small
estates to leave in behalf Of members
of their families, is the fact that the
TRUST company, with It's state charter
It's unbroken line of boards OF direc-
tors and experienced executive Off
GERS, going on from generation tc
generation, IS in effect, a perpetual In.
lstitution. Another strong argument
with men and women who are leaving
final instructions, sometimes In the
shadow Of death, Is the fact that trus'
funds and estates have been so vel
managed by trust companies thai
there Is not a single record OF the
loss Of penny OF such funds"

Rome Hears Pope May Proclaim
New Dogma, First in Forty Years

Of the Pope, which is now a part OF
the fundamental dogma of the church,
such proclamation would carry with
It what would be considered nothing
less than divine sanction. IL was
this doctrine Of the infallibility of the
supreme pontiff that was In fact the
last dogma to be proclaimed by a
Pope. This was In 1870.
Previous to that time, this belief, the
same as the belief in the assumption OF
the Virgin Mary, had been accepted by
tho church from the earliest days with
out however, ever being officially in
corporated into the fundamental creed.
When, towards the close Of his stormy
pontifcate, in which Rome had been
taken from the popes by the new king
dom of Italy, and tho church was being
0ssailed on every hand, Pope Plus TX
felt il Imperative that the position OF
the pontiffs be strengthened, he startled
the entire world by proclaiming this
dogma. Its proclamation was later af-
hrmed by the cardinals, archbishops and
bishops of the entire Catholic world,
and Il is this infnllibility of the pope
this affirmation that every act Of the
vicar Of Christ Is the direct inspiration
of God-tbat would lend an unusual sig.
nihcance 20 the proclamation now by
Pope Plus of the dogma Of the assumpr
tion of the Virgin.
IL would be the first proclamation OF
this kind made since that which estab.
lished the nfallibility Of the pontiffs.
Barring this latter exception, II would
also be the frst dogma proclaimed since,
rs has been stated, in 1854 when Pope
Plus lN, just beginning his pontiacate,
proclaimed the dogma OF the immacu.
late conception of the Virgin. This also
was immediately affirmed by the entire
Catholic world
The feast of the assumption Of the
Virgin Mary Is now set down in The
Catholic calendar Of established feast
days for August 10. u Is on this dav.
IL Is now believed, that Pope Plus will
make his proclamation. Aside from the
appropriateness Of the occasion, the non

recently that he fears his own life NAV

to carry ont in person this last cuntem.
