FANS FLOCK TO
SEE NATIONAL
CIRCUIT OPENER

New York, April 12.-Warm
weather, but overcast skies, usher
ed in the baseball season Of 1922
here today. Weather forecasts,
however, brought cheering assur-
ance to the fans OF Manhattan and
Brooklyn that the elements would
not mar the big day OF the year
for those who went to the Polo
Grounds to see the National league
teams Of the two boroughs begin
hostilities.
Douglas or Nehf was the pitch
er considered as most likely to-
face the barrier for the Giants,
while Dutch Ruether, whose
wrok had shown remarkable form,
was looked ON as the hurler for
Brooklyn.
New York was without the
service OF Frisch, second baseman
who was sent home from the south
with an infection, but his place
was taken by Rawlings who play
ed star game In the worlds SER
les last fall. Brooklyn presented
her strongest lineup. High, thel
new Dodger shortstop, and DeBer-
ry, catcher new to the Brooklyn
uniform, were the strange faces in
the outfit commanded by Wilbert
Robinson.
The Yankees were in Washing
ton to open the American league
season. Babe Ruth went to the
capital city with his team mates
but had no hope Of getting into
the game as the sentence OF sus-
pension passed on him by Judge
Lands was holding firmly.
Boston and Philadelphia also
were ready for today's opening.
The National league season was to
be initiated in the Quaker City by
the Braves, while Connie Mack's
Athletics were in Boston to meet
the Red Sox.

Says Row of Italy
and Catholic Church
Now Thing Of Past

New York. March 1G.-The recent
ceremonies in Rome incident 10 the
installation of Pope Plus NJ should re-
move the last suspicion of a schism
between church and state in Italy,
Ambassador Ricci declared tonight in
an address before the Catholis Society
of New York. The very fact of his
having been invited to speak before
that body, he added, was evidence
strongly in support of the hope that
the legends" of the past were finally
to be 'obliterated.
There is no body in America" the
Italian ambassador said "who would
dare say that tile pope is a prisoner
and the Italian government his jailcr
since Plus NJ blessed the kncCling
and applauding crowd from the IoFgla
of st. Peters and the representative
of the royal army spontaneously ask
ed to be among those soldiers who
were to salute the pope while the notes
of the Royal March were heard"
The speaker excused the "fanati-
cism of our foreign detractors' as be-
ing due more to stupidity than hat
red" declaring they could not under
stand our history nor grasp the re-
f1ncment Of our feelings which they
are unable to guagc." No thinking
person can longer believe. he asserted,
that the pope is an obstacle to pro-
gress, to greater civilization, to
better humanity"
'In my opinion" Ambassador Ricci
asserted, "the Catholic church can be
the most efTicacious help to the adj
vancement of the humble classes who
wish to free themselves from the tyr
amy of plutocratic organizations
based upon selfish interests Of formal
democracy devoid OF real liberty.
speak frankly as anybody should who
represents a country abroad and is
above every partisan competition"
religion is damaged and insulted
when it is made a political tool" SEN
ator Ricci continued, adding that he
had been bound by no preconceiyed
ideas or prejudices when he came to
study conditions of his Catholic fell
lowmen in America.
Admitting there were "some had
men among our immigrants" the am
bassador denied that Italy was un.
usual in this respect and declared that
the percentage of crimes among Ital-
ians is not as high as that of other
races" Spiritual work among italian
immigrants. he said, had been mea sur.
ably bettered by the appointment OF a
special bishopric to care for them

/ Watervile, Maine.
/ My dear DR.. Owen:
I am in receipt of your favor of
March ii congratulating me on re-
ceiving the Democratic nomination
at the primaries held on February
13. l note your beIated inquiry as to
my attitude on the enforcement of
National Prohibition.
! Before the primary election I was
asked as to my attitude on that ques-
ton. I stated that was opposed to
any change in the Volstead Act the
effect of which would be to weaken
or impair it as a temperance meas
| ure. AS my answer was published in
| your home paper YOU are undoubted-
ly familiar with it. There has been
no change in my attitude.
/ was al so asked as to my personal
habits. Tam puzzled that this most
important inquiry should have been
confined to the Democratic candi-
date. Your league certainly must be
interested in the habits of the can
didates. I note, however, that your
letter of March il contains no in
quiry on that subject. I mention
this only because I know that in the
primary there was much misunder-
standing on this question. am sorry
to see that the league is apparently
willing to still leave the matter in
doubt.
You do inquire as to my attitude
on certain acts. list of which you
enclose. My previous reply answers
fully your present inquiry. I have,
however. no objection to stating my
position on these acts. am opposed
