.POPE'S ALLOCUT|ON
BELIEVED DIRECTED
At RADICAL DANGER
BY Camille Cianfarra

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Rome, Dec. 17.-Pope Benedict's al
location to the consistory Sunday
while closely guarded secret, was
believed today to have been directed
principally at bolshevism, material
and atheism.
Efforts to learn the exact contents
of the allocution have been fruitless
because the pope is alleged to have
sealed the lips of his cardinals under
threat of accommodation The only
explanation offered of this strict Sec
recy was that, owing to the present
political situation in Europe. the pope
wished TO resume the centuries old
tradition of secrecy relative to the
church''s treatment VI international
policies
Past Word Significant.
Prelates connected with the inner
circles of the papal court called in
quirers' attention to past public ut
terances of Pope Benedict, especially
to the fact that as early as 1915 he,
in letter to rulers urging cessation
of hostilities, hinted at probable rev
olutions as the outcome of the con-
| flict. saying that continuation of the
carnage would mean annihilatlorl vi
| Christian civilization. The informa-
| iton was added that it would not be
surprising if, in view of the passive
attitude of some European govern
ments toward bolshevism and the in
difference of the ruling classes to the
menace it represented to the church,
the pope should have instructed his
cardinals and the heads of dioceses to
take the lead in an energetic fight
against materialism and atheism.
Missions Instructed.
Another subject treated by the pope,
| 1t was said, might have been that of
Catholic missions. In the last issue of
the Holy Sees organ a letter was pub
] lished which escaped general notice
| because it was in Latin. In this let
ter Pope Benedict took the stand that
missionaries must NOT carry on ma
/ tionalistic propaganda among natives
should cease to be tools in the hands
of governments, and should confine
themselves to religious teachings.
| Twenty four cardinals heard the al
locution. The pope received two tele-
grams from German Catholics, one
thanking him for his work for liber-
alton Of German prisoners in France
The second, addressed to French
Catholics through the pontiff, en-
treated them to advocate liberation OF
the prisoners.

Even the school nurse has her fun.
In talk before the central pnilan-
thropic council the other day, Miss
Helen R. Stewart Of the board OF
health told of one little boy who
after he he'd been examined by the
nurse, went to the teacher in tears,
complaining that the nurse called him
names.
When the teacher expressed her
surprise, the boy sought to prove his
case by handing her the card the
nurse had given to him as her record
of the examination.
"Look at that!" he cried.
"Poor nut" read the card.
"Poor nutrition" explained the
teacher, finally sending the child away

us and briefly answered Sally's good
bye before the man drove away with
me. remember telling him as we
went on over the rough road, between
fields of ripened grain, of my water
melon and my dog and my little pet
hen.
I shall not try to describe that home
coming. We found Aunt Deel In the
road five miles from home. She had
been calling and travelling from house
to house most of the night, and /
have never forgotten her joy at seeing
me and her tender greeting. She got
into the buggy and rode home with
us, holding me in her rap. Uncle Pea
body and one of our neighbors had
been out in the woods all night with
pine torches. I recall how, although
excited by my return, he took Off
his hat at the sight Of my new friend
and said:
"Mr. Wright, I never wished that
lived in a palace until now"
He didn't notice me until I held up
both feet and called: "Look a. there,
Uncle Peabody"
Then he came and took me out of
the buggy and I saw the tears in his
eyes when he kissed me.
The man told of finding mo on his
little veranda, and told of my ride
with Dug Draper, after which Uncle
Peabody said:
I'm goin' to put in your boss and
feed him, Comptroller"
"And I'm goin' to cook the best
dinner I ever cooked in my life," said
Aunt Deel.
When the great man had gone Uncle
Peabody took me in his lap and said
very gently and with a serious look
"You didn't think I meant it, did
ye?-that you would have to go way
from here"

"Course I didn't mean that, l just

$50 Bars VIII

Many of the dire calamities that op
ponents of prohibition said would fol-

are scheduled to materialize in New
York to-day, or early this week, with
probable financial losses Of several
million dollars Incidentally Broad
way is threatened with another period
of darkness comparable to that en-
forced by the war. Every day wit

signs pointing the way to cabaret

ably would be closed by August l Of

immediate results that would be wit

saved from the wreck of former
flourishing saloons. The closing of so
many saloons, the saloon men argue,
automatically converts their assets into
SO much junk
Probably the most serious losses will
fall upon owners of leases at street
intersections. where rents have been
high for saloons and comparatively low
for other business. The saloonkeepers
say they will be forced to sublet for
much lower rentals than they have
paid-in some instances only half. In
few instances saloon men had the
foresight to protect themselves by
causing a clause to be inserted in their
leases invalidating them in the event
of prohibition. But most of their num-
Der were so certain that nothing so
radical could occur that they made no
such provision.
The makers of electric signs and
the company supplying the current
that kept them ablaze during the pros
porous days of the liquor business are
