The site of the national shrine of
the Immaculate Conception. on the
grounds of the Catholic University.

ebrated by Archbishop BonZano, apos-
tolic delegate to the United States.
He was assisted by Bishop T. ]. Sha-
han of Catholic University. who de-
livered the sermon. in which he cited
the peculiar fitness of the erection of
a shrine to the Immaculate Concep-
ton in the United States.
The shrine is to be masterpiece of
ecclesiastical architecture. The
building will be more than 400 feet
long. 81 feet wide and IS feet high.
The facade is to be 124 feet wide and

splendid dome. The church will ac-
commodate a congregation of 5000
persons.
The corner stone of the structure
will be laid September %. during the
meeting of the Catholic hierarchy of
the United States. Cardinal Gibbons

The statement says the japanese
government has always rigidly fol-
lowed the policy of acting in concert
with the powers interested in loans
to China. and accordingly used its best
efforts to persuade America when the
latter withdrew from the old SIN
power consortium and therefore
promptly approved in principle the
present conSortium.
Would End "Needless Competition"
Throughout it has been the init
mate desire of the Japanese govern
ment by the creation of a new f1nan-
cial organization to end the needless
loan competition concerning China"
the statement continues. However.
while the other powers can afford to
regard the new consortium solely as
a business matter, Japan is otherwise
situated, since her vital national in
terests. such as national defense and
economic existence, are apt to be in
volved in enterprises near her border.
When the three other governments
expressly declared to Japan that they
not only did not contemplate acts
inimical to her vital interests, but were
ready to give assurances sufficiently
safeguarding them, the Japanese gov
eminent decided to confirm the Paris
agreement.
