POPE BENEDICT PRAYS
FOR END OF ALL WARS

Rome, Nov. 22,--Pope Benedict in
his allocution delivered at today's
secret consistory said:
"ln striving for the good and well
being OF the peoples through the
operation of reason and experience,
il would be mistake to count alone
ON these means and not invoke the
aid of God. Ni ,ua I,aV
For this reason we view with
pleasure how the representatives of
several nations have mot In Wash.
mgton with the aim of reaching an
agreement for the 4 reduction Of
ornaments, aud mot alone do we
warmly hope that their labors may
have a happy success, but unitedly.
for the good of all, we pray God that
tie may aid them with light, that they
may determine not alone how To
Tighten the heavy burdens OF the
peoples, which is no small thing, but
a thing which matters much more
tn make as remote as possible for
eyermore the dangers of new wars"
The Natican's relations with new
states and how the new agreements
We're established between them and
the Holy See were recounted by the
Pope. He deplored the unrest obsery-
able in them, and added:

treaty of peace has not brought about
peace OF mind"
