P0PES ALWAYS HAVE
ACTED AS MEDIATORS
Alerio i Started Proccdue in 400;
Generally Have United Others
Against Turks,

From the earliest time of papacy,
popes, as the religious heads OF the
Catholic church. have considered It
their task to intercede az medlators
in temporal disputes. observes n his
torian. Following are a few in,
stances:
AS early as 400, when Alaric !. de-
clared he would withdraw from
Rome only on condition that the Ro-
mans should arrange n peace favora-
BILE to him, ST. Innocent /, went with
an embassy of the Romans to En-
peror Honerius, at Ravenna, to try
IL possible, to make peace with him
and the Goths. but failed In his
endeavors to bring about peace.
More successful was Gregory l.,
who played the same part ON the oc-
casion OF the invasion Of Italy by the
Lombards. Owing to his friendship
with the Lombardian queen, Theu-
dulinda, he actually mcdiated ia
vorable peace when northern italy
was devastated by Attila the Vcnera-
BILE bishop OF Rome, Leo the first
of the great popes-.by personal en-
counter with the king OF the Huns,
prevented him from marching upon
Rome. He went In 452 to upper Italy
and met Attila Mt Mincio, In tho VI
cinity OF Mantua, obtaining from him
the promise that he would withdraw
from italy and negotiate peace with
the emperor. This pope also sue
ceeded In obtaining another favor for
the Inhabitants of Rome. When In
t55 the city was captured by tho
Sandals under Gencserlc, the
1scourge OF God" Leo's intercession
obtained q promise that the city
should not be injured and the lives
OF the Inhabitants should be spared.
Another pope. Benedict XII, who
from 1894 to 1342 occupied tho holy
see, was as unsuccessful as n media
tor as tho present supreme pontiff.
At that time Charles Nv. Of France
had died without leaving an heir, and
: yhen his cousin, Philip VI, put the
crown on his head his right toNo so
was contested by Edward III. OF Eng
land Benedict XII. who wanted TO
mediate, was not listened to, and
there ensued hostilities lasting, with
some Interruptions. for q hundred
years.
The popes mcdiated successfully
between Christian opponents In cases
where II was important to unite them
in the common cause of Christianity
against Turkey.
Pope Gregory (1271-1276), FOR the
sake of q crusade against the TURKS,
worked indefatigably upon n recon.
cillation OF the princess In italy and
Germany. and Paul III. t634- lb4O

France. Clement TX. aided Venice
against the Turks by mediating the
