NO BOYCOTT BY CHURCH
Hut Catholics DO Resent Appointment
of Nathan ns Fair Co,nmIsSioncr.

Especial TO The Times Dispatch
New York, June 1.--Monsignor Law
eiie. rector of st. Patrick's Cathedral
and vicar general OF the New York
diocese OF the Catholic Church. stated
positively to-day that tho church would
pass no official boycott against tho
San Francisco Exposition. The whole
contention" said Monsignor Lavelle,
hinges on the appointment of Ernesto
Nathan. former Mayor OF Rome az
royal commissioner to take charge Of
1taly's exhibit In San Francisco. The
appointment OF this man, to put 1t
mildly, was n thing which our church
never desired. Italy Is n Catholic
country. and this faith has shown no
more bitter enemy than SiEnor Nathan.
His appointment was an insult to the
Catholics in this country. We should
not have objected to Catholic.
but were disappointed to see such an
opponent appointed.
SO far as an official boycott being
declared, l can cay positively that
there Will be none. Tho Catholic
Church does not do things that way
IL a boycott were enacted. IT should
he against the appointment Itself and
not against the institution for which
the appointment was made
