As POPE VIEWS 4

Rome, Nov. 16.-The pope to-
day caused to be published his
announced encyclical urging
peace among the warning ma
lions OF Europe. In this doc
ument the pontiff attributes the
war to four causes, namely, lack
OF mutual and sincere love
among men; contempt OF au-
thority: injustice on the part OF
one class of the people against
another, and the consideration
OF material welfare as the sole
object OF human activity.
The pope's appeal. urging
peace in Europe, follows a pas
toral letter from the pontiff
issued early In September, In
which he exhorted the heads of
the nations engaged in hostili-
ties to end the present reign OF
ruin, disaster and bloodshed.
The pope then said the spec
tacle of the conflict filled him
with horror and sadness, and
that he hoped not only for the
end OF this war, but of all wars.

ENGLAND is WORRIED BY

London. Nov. 1T.-Of greater i'm

ton of the attitude In the world war

were siding with the sultan Of Turkey,
to whom they owe spiritual allegiances,
as against Great Britain.
Britain's problem OF dealing with the
Moslems was brought up squarely by
the German statement that the khe-
dive OF Egypt had departed from Con-
s~tantinople, where he had been since
the beginning of the war, to assume
command Of the Turkish forces opera
ting against Egypt. Another report OF
d~issension in British professions com-
ing from the same source, was to the
effect that the leader Of the Bedoutns
at Alden. a British possession, In Araoia
was calling on his people to rise to
arms against their rulers.

 In official circles here the feeling was evident that any unusual strain will be manifest finst in New York, and both the president and MT. Mo Adoo were anxious that the highest government financial authority be on the ground.
 Before MT. McAdoo left Washington the treasury shipped out about S100, 100000 of the Aldrich- -Vreeland cur rency, which will be in the vaults of the ub-treasury tomorrow ready for the New York banks. There has been no call from outside New York for Aldrich- -Vreeland cur rency, and it was not believed here to- night that other banks would make such calls. The treasury is stocked with many millions more of bills ready for instant shipment. The very fact that this vast sum is here is expected to have a reassuring effect throughout the country.
