That man who places a hindrance

say besone! Free souls are not

The prevailing fallacy is that edu.
cation belongs to the schools. 1t may

1t by plunging into life in early years,

From the Eterna/ City
Il Rome December q 1913 Il
Approaching Solution Of the Roman
Question?
me. December !, 1913

Approaching Solution Of the Roman
Question?
For forty years the most difficult,
problem Europe has found before he,
has been what is probably known as
the Roman Question. When and
how may the Vatican and the Quirin
al resolve the question as to the
possession Of Rome and the territory
wrested by force in 1870 by the
Italians? Italy has been able to find
no solution; the Holy See has found
none; neither have the several arbi
traitors whose good intentions led
them to fancy for the time being they
might safely cry eureka. AS matter
OF fact the more deeply one studies
the Roman Question, the more
complicated it becomes and the more
numerous seem its ramifications.
Painful though the situation Is fol
the Sovereign Pontiff to live in his
own city surrounded by the troops
of a hostile king, Italy finds much
more Inconvenience. AT every step
"the Roman Question" turns up.
Foreign monarchs and heads Of States
who are Catholic, will = not visit
Rome in respect for the Pope's wish.
es that they should not; and never
perhaps so much as in 1911 when
Victor Emmanuel. wrote to every
monarch and president in Europa
inviting them to visit the Roman
Exhibition. None could be got TO
come, so wires had to be pulled to
bring along the Prince of Monaco
whose territory could be covered by
"a good sized circus tent and who is
himself that sort Of Catholic Of whom
the Church has no reason to be
p1oud. And Victor Emmanuel, who
comes from the most ancient royal
house of Europe, felt himself con-
strained to treat this libel on. mon.
archs as the head of State, because
no better than he and Peter of Servia
could be found to enter the Papal
City, 80.
Therefore Rome remains in that
anomalous position. She has two
kings and two courts within her
walls, each court having its own
Diplomatic Corpa, each having it's
own following among the native and
foreign nobility.
But probably the day for solution
to the difficulty is not so distant. It
has been said that the General Elec.
tons, In which the Catholics have
done so much to check the Socialists,
may resolve this burning question.
Certain it is new era has dawned
for Italy-but not for the Monarchy,
for the prognostications Of a score Of
years ago are being renewed and
r. it falls few will mourn it.

It has been said with truth that
