TO VISIT POPE AT
VATICAN DURING DAY
Papal Visit Made From Ann

From Quirinal.
ROBERT J. BENDER

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.)
ROME, Jan. 4.--President wilson's
strategy in going straight to the heare
of the Balkan situation is being dis-
cussed by the people and politicians
alike. 1t has promoted a freedom Of
expression that is expected 10 go far
toward clarifying the relations be-
tween Italy and the new slavic states.
which have been somewhat tense Iate-
ly.
The presidents statement in his
speech before the chamber OF depu-
ties last night that the Balkan peo~
pie must now be independent" Is
believed to a broad hint that Ita1ian-
Slavic disputes must be adjusted: and
that Italy must join the other assoc
ciated powers in promoting the ess
tablishment of strong Slavic nation.
LAST NIGHTS ADDRESS
Speaking in Fthe italian parliament
in the presence of King Victor En-
manuel, the entire Italian cabinet and
all members, Wilson again vowed the
removal forever of the old system OF
alliances secret influence, intrigue
and military force.
I'VE know that there cannot be an"
other balance Of power" he said, add
ing that here must be substituted for
it "a thoroughly united league of ma
tions"
said, in the future can be the true and
permanent cement of peace. for on
that basis alone can peace be durable.

TO VISIT POPE

ROME. Jan. "A visit by Wilson
to the pope at the vatican today Is
regarded as one OF the most import
ant events of the presidents Italian
visit. 1t is believed clear under~
standing win be reached regarding
the church's attitude toward the vital
principles of the peace settlement.
Preceding the audience with the pope
Wilson conferred with Cardinal Cas-
parri. papars secretary of state, re-
garding certain angles of political
subjects. The president went to the
vatican from the American embassy
where he lunched with Ambassador
Page. This was in Difference to the
peculiar relations between the vatican
and the quirinaI which made 1t de-
sirable that the president should pro-
coed to the vatican from the AmerI-
can rather than from Italian territory.
The embassy is regarded as being on
American soil. Wilson will confer
with Premier Orlando and other
Italian statesmen after his return from
the vatican.
