Suggestion In wilson's Message Not
Printed In France.

PARIS, Dec. 1s.--As cabled to THE SUN
the French censor cut ont paragraph
from local reproduction OF the DajIu
TeleOrdph's Washington despatch giving
resume of President Wilson's message
TO Congress, Comparison with the Daiiu
Teie0rdph's own version, as printed in
London, seems TO show that the French
censor barred any reference to the posi-
bility of the United States having the
occasion to bring about peace soon, as
contained in the passage
I'VE, as champions of peace and con-
cord, Just now should be particularly
Jealous OF this distinction. because IL IA
the dearest Mt present. ! hope that this
reputation may presently, In Gods proyi-
dence. bring us an opportunity seldom
vouchsafed 10 any nation TO counsel and
obtain peace in the world"
n this paragraph Is the one the censor
refused 10 allow TO appear in English In
Paris, and later by translation in the
French press, II throws an interesting
light on the censor's exaggerated fear of
any comment which could be twisted into
suggestion that France would as yet
welcome any Intervention which might
lead to discussion OF terms OF agreement

Strictly speaking they would remain opera
tive during a war and the Italian Govern
ment would continue TO guarantee the fun
freedomlof the Pope 's'spirtual ministry, the
enjoyment Of the Vatican and its safety and
eXtraterritoriality, with all the privileges
and immunites accorded to the Diplomatic
Corps accredited o the Holy See
Complications, however. are apt to arise.
Article II OF the law Of guarantees places
dplomatists accredited to tho Holy See on
the same footing as those accredited to the
Quirinal. The fact that representatives of
the foreign Powers are accredited to the
Holy See. while il implicitly recognizes the
sovereignty Of the Pope. serves in a way to
show that the Pope Is protected nterna-
tionaly, In case Italy should declare war
on Germany and Austria and the repre-
sentatives Of these countries should re-
ceive their passports, II IL not likely that
the Austrian Ambassador accredited TO the
Holy See and Prussian and Bavarian ENJOYS
could be allowed to remain in Rome. the
enemy country. Even IL the Italian Govern
ment followed the law OF guarantees to the
letter and allowed these diplomatic repre-
sentatives to remain in Rome. the Pope
himself probably would insist on their
departure in order TO avoid complications.
Deprived OF the presence OF Austria's
and Germany's representatives the Pope
could, If he wished. seize the opportunity
to protest to the Italian Government. in
stancing the insufficient protection af-
forded him by the Law of Guarantees as
akng It necessary for him to leave
Rome Leo XIII, threatened 10 leave
Rome in 1887 when an attempted recon
cilation between the Vatican and Italy
failed and IA result the relations be-
tween Italy and the Holy See became
strained. A palace was then bought in
Malta as a retreat for the Pope In case he
left Rome. Less than year later this
palace was sold TO a convent of nuns and
the threat of leo Kill has never since
been repeated.

The Understanding Reached.

The Italian Government. foreseeing the
possibility of complications with the Vati-
can in case of ltaly's Intervention owing
to the question of belligerent diplomatsts
accredited TO the Holy See, has already
initiated indirect negotiations with the
Holy See on the subject. The present
Pope is so favorably disposed toward
Italy that he at once signihed his inten-
ton of requesting Germany's and Aus
tria's representatives to leave Rome in
case Of war, The request would be
worded In such n way that IL would sound
more as "a warning due to stress Of circum-
stances than Ms protest, Appearances
would he saved, however, complications
would be ayerted and Italy would publicly
guarantee the safety Of the Pope to her new
allies.

ened In case OF revolution due to nom
