POPE STILL HOPES
TO AID PEACE PLANS
Vatican Keeps In Close Touch

IL
Rome, Aug. II (by maiD.-In prepa-
ration for the great after the war;
task OF re-establishing the entire world
on basis Of permanent peace, the
vatican is pursuing a steady policy of
resuming and establishing diplomatic
relations with as many countries as
possible ~
By being in direct and official con-
tact with all of the leading nations of
the world, the vatican hopes to be in
position to lend aid and influence to
those OF the United States and allied
bel!1gerents who with the close of war
VIII assume the leadership in attempt
ing to render impossible for all time
TO come similar catastrophe.
Already the vatican has met with
marked success in it's efforts.
shortly after opening of the war and
without any reference to the above
mentioned policy, diplomatic relations
We're resumed between England and
the vatican and papal nuncio also
was accepted at Constantinople by the
Ottoman empire.
More recently the vatican has been
able to resume full diplomatic rela :
tons with Portugal, and to enter into
relations with China and Japan. In
this way the vatican is already in Of
AASAhi ACiatiOu Win various nations
representing all of the principal reli-
gions Of the world.
diplomatic negotiations are under

vatican and Switzerland for an ex-
change of diplomatic representatives.
Official announcement that such an
understanding has been reached may
be expected at any moment
One of the dearest projects along
this line which his holiness is declared
in competent circles to have at heart
is to see the apostolic delegate at
Washington raised to the position of
papal nuncio or papal ambassador.
tons exist between the United States
and the vatican. The apostolic dele
gate at Washington is merely there in
semi officia1 capacity to watch over
interests of American Catholics.
Should the United States consent to
having this ,po:Ition raised to that of
nunc!ature, this would provide for.
q regular exchange Of diplomatic rem
resentatives between the vatican and
Washington. The lead with England
and other Protestant. to say nothing of
Mohammedan and Buddhist states have
taken In establishing diplomatic rela-
tons with the holy see would not make
inns step on the part of the United
States, 1t Is pointed out, any great de-
parture from previous customs.
There always is more or less proba-
Dlilty OF an eventual resumption of dip
lomatic relations between France and
the vatican. Unofficial steps are in
progress nearly all the time and 1t is
practically certain that sooner or later
these will develop into official negotia-
uons.
There seems every likelihood that at
