Criticisms Directed
Against Vatican.

Declares Propaganda for I'm
just Peace Is Backed by
MaliciOusnesS.

Rome. Tuesday. Nov. 27.---Papal Sec
rotary of state Cardinal Gasparri, an
swering the numerous criticisms re-
garding tho vatican's peace attitude
issued TO the press today the following
statement:
The holy father Is not preparing
any new appeal looking toward peace.
His earnest desire many times mani
tested. for just. Christian and dur
able peace. Is unchanged and cannot
change. Who can crave anything
else and call himself n Christian
ITO say that his holiness favors. or
has favored. or will favor an unjust.
un. Christian and uncomfortable peace Is
not only false. but also absurd. Any
propaganda for such peace. alleged
TO be conducted at the vatican's In
spiration. especially in certain nations.
Is tho product of pure righteousness.
\ chain Of prayers has always been
reprobated by the holy see. bishops
and priests in the United States OF
America and elsewhere are warned
against them, particularly those hav-
ing any such propa ganda behind them.
Patriotism a Duty.
The Catholic church has always re-
garded true patriotism as IA Christian
duty and Christian virtue. and still
so teaches. The fact that the Italian
parliament has had warm eulogy for
the clergy should be sufficient to re-
flute the calumnies which irresponsible.
persons have circulated and are cir
culating in the foreign world. Ma
licious insinuations propaEated In
America and the tendency to attribute
in great part. to the Italian clergy re-
sponsibiity for the recent situation
| must be denounced. In italy no fai,
minded person is attributing the situa
ton to the clergy

Effort Of State to Establish
Motive in Means Case
Thwarted.
RULING BALKs MOVE
Star Witness Has Claws
Clipped by Restriction
Put on Evidence.

Concord. n. c.. Nov. es.-First ef-
forts OF the state to introduce evidence
designed to prove a motive for the
killing of Mrs. Maude A. King, wealthy
Chicago widow at Blackwelder Spring
the night of last August 49, were
blocked by the defense tonight at the
trial of Castor b. Means. her former
business manager In Cabarrus county
court.
Solicitor Hayden Clement announced
that the prosecution relied on Willard
j. Rockefeller managing director Of
Chicago hotel, to testify that Mrs.
King had told him Il short time before
her death that she and her estate
were under the absolute control OF
Means" but that she expected soon to
free herself and do as she pleased"
Decides for Defense
Superior Judge Cline ruled, however.
that Rockefeller could relate to the
jury only such statements as Mrs.
King made to him in the presence OF
Means.
