CALL C0NCLAv[ :
FOR POPE FEB.2
Question of Rapprochement
Between Church and Govt
Figures Into Election

ROME, Jan. 27-With the body
of the late Pope Benedict laid away
beneath the f1agstones of st. Peters
the interest on the sacred college
and the vatican household turned
today to election of his successor. A
conclave has been called for Feb
ruary 2 to choose the new pontiff.
The question Of a rapprechement
between the church and the italian
government enters into the cleo
ton. A thorough canvass of opinion
in the vatican shows that the peace
party, or those advocating closer
relation with the government, r
virtually d~eadlocked with the ire
concilables or those opposing rap
prochement in the number of votes
each faction can muster.
A two thirds majority is zee
sary for election. Twenty nine car
dinals, headed by Cardinal Gasparri,
the camerlengo or acting head of the
church, are known to favor contin-
uonce of Benedict's policy which was
understood to have been directed
toward a resumption of relations
with the quirinal. Twenty members
Of the sacred college are thought
to be just as strongly opposed while
nine are classified as neutral.
The attitude of the American car
dinals. O'Connell, of Boston. and
Daugherty of Philadelphia is I'M
known at the vatican, but the opin-
ion is expressed that unless a COM
promise is reached eve has there
been such an opportunity for a for
eisn cardinal to be elected pope.
The majority enjoyed by the Ital-
ian members of the sacred COLLEGE
is so evenly divided hat vatican o.
flcials admit all depends. Upon the
attitude of the foreign cardinals.

Numbers of Strike PicketS
May be Intimidation

TRENTON, Jan. 27.-Holding that
mere numbers of strike pickets may
amolnt to intimidation the court
of errors and appeals has upheld
Vice Chancellor Ruchanan's drastic
anti-picketing Injunction against the
Macrinists' Union and individuals
connected with the strike against the
kelffel and Esser Company, instru-
ment makers. of Hoboken and Union
Hill in September of 1920. Justice
Swayzc wrote the majority opinion.
Lay judge White. of the court, goes
stiii further and. in an opinion of his
own filed, asserts that picketing,
properly so-called. as applied to
strike controversies is never free
fro,a intimidation and obstruction.
"Picketing'' is held by most courts
to be lawful if free from violence or
Intimidation, and the labor men
sought in the present case to find
out how far they could go.
Justice Minturn filed an interest
ing and slmewhst caustic opinion
dissenting from the majority. Chief
Justice Guinmere, it is understood,
will also file a dissenting opinion.
The vote was nine for affirmance
and five fer reversal of the vice
c~hanceIlor's ruling. Those who vot-
ed to affirro We're: Justices SwayZe,
Parker, Bergen, Kal:sch and katzen-
bach and Lay Judges White. Will
lianls, Gardner and Alderman; to
reverse: Chief Justice Gummere,
Justices Trenchard. Minturn. Black
and Lay Judge Van Buskirk. Lay
Judge Appropriateness was not re-
corded.
The majority opinion declares
that "picketing may or may not be
lawful depending IN whether or not
1t has an immediate tendency to in
timidation Of the other party to the
controversy (if he has ordinary firm
ness of minG) or ar immediate ten
dency to opstruct free passage such

but may ND resort to persis-

Referring to free speech, Justice
Swayze quotes Justice Holmes. of

the effect that the protection of free
speech "docs not protect a man from

Freight Rate On
Wool Held Just

Washington, March 15.--Exist-
Ing rates on raw wool from the
west destined to manufacturing
points around Boston were held
reasonable today by an interstate
commerce commission examiner
who reported to the commission
his recommendations after investi-
eating the complaint OF the Bos-
ton Wool Trade association.
The rates attacked by the asso-
citation were chiefly the charges
for combination rail and water
hauls on wool produced in the
west and moved to the Pacific
coast for trans-shipment via the
Panama canal.
Though holding the present
charges reasonable, the examiner
declared that the railroad prac-
tice of refusing to halt cars NOV
ing to the Pacific coast at various
points along the line to pick up
small wool shipments, which
privilege is given to cars moving
east with all rail haul of wool in
view, constitutes a discrimination
against the rail and water traffic
This, 1t was suggested, the rail
roads should be required to move
The report will not be made effec'
tive until approved by the commits
sion itself.
