By HENRY WOOD

ROME, Aug. 2O.-Owing to the neees-
sity of electing a Pope to succeed the
late Plus y during war in which all
Europe is involved, this is one OF the
most critical in the entire history OF the
Catholic Church.
The Italian government, however Off
cially announced today that full liberty
will be guaranteed the churches and the
Cardinals while the members OF the Sac
red College are engaged in the ballotmg
for the new Pope. II is hoped the war
ring nations will permit the passage Of
special trains To bring the foreign cardl-
mails TO the conclavc. These trains VIII
ny black flags and appeals will be made
to Germany France, Austria, Belgium
and all nations engaged IN the war To
expedite their passage
Despite the efforts that may be made
il was considered certain today that the
foreign Cardinals will be delayed II Is
not believed that sufficient number
of them will be able to reach Rome III
time to insure the election OF a foreign
Pope. For this reason Cardinals Ferrata
and Maii are regarded as the most likeiy
candidates.
Cardinal Ferrata is secretary OF the
Congregation of the Holy Office. lie
was made a Cardinal in 1896 and is 6'
years old.
Cardinal Mafn is the Archbishop OF
Pisa. He is a modern man m all re,
spects and friendly with the Italian gov
erument. He is some years younger
than Cardinal Ferrata.

foreign Pope. possibly an American
