ETCHMIADZIN, Soviet Armenia,
April 2.-Within the shadow of Mount
Ararat stands the oldest Christian
church in the world. 1T is the home
and place of worship of the Armenian
Catholicos, the oldest living Pontiff
in the world.
The mouldering stone walls of the
church, it's pyramidal cupolas and
massive stone crosses, have witness
ed the rise and fall of Armenia dur
ing the last Is centuries. Close to it
are the, graves of all the Catholicos
for the last 500 years.
The Foundation of this edifice is as
cribed to Gregory the illumination,
Armenia's great Primate and Patri-
arch, to whom the Armenians attri-
butte their. conversion to Christianity.
1t is here that the Catholicos con-
fers episcopal conservation on the
faithful by the sacred relic of hand
of Saint Gregory, and also where the
holy oil is made every seven years
for use throughout the churches of
the Armenian communion.
Everything around the edifice looks
decayed and shabby. Except for a
few rooms in one of the adjoining
monasteries, the Communist regime,
which now rules Armenia, left moth
ing to the former Little Kingdom"
of the Catholicos, who is to the Ar
menians what the Pope is to the Ro-
man Catholic world. All the more
valuable ikons, communion cups, chal-
ices and patriarchal mitres have been
seized by the government and. either
sold or placed in museums.
Still the peace and sanctity of the
place remained undisturbed. When
the correspondent of the Associated
Press entered the grounds he was
warmly greeted by the venerable. Ca
tholicos, George v, Sd years old, who,
dressed in long black flowing robes
and high conical cowl of black silk,

and well preserved, he seems to take

RENAISSANCE SEEN
IN CHINA BY POPE
.'ontiff Hopes New CiviIiza.
tion, Indigenous to Orient,
Will Follow Conflict.
BY JOHN GUNTHER.

~ Radio TO The Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copyright. l927.
ROME, April 2.-The Pope sees
ne struggle in China as a vast con-
iict between the old civilization and
he new, the result of which may be
a slow Christianization of the Whole
orient, he told intimate friends IL
Il conversation today.
The present situation in China is
almost exactly comparable to the
chaos in Europe, when the old
.soman Empire broke up under the
onslaught of the barbarians, to make
way for Christianity which swept
the Western World.
Watches Situation Closely.
The Pope has watched the tragic
struggle in China with intense in
terest, often expressing his anxiety
for the safety of Catholic mission
aries and asking daily for informa-
ton on the situation of the apostolic
delegation at Peking.
Often in private conversation, the
Pope, drawing on his historical knowl-
edge, has made a comparison between
today's events in China and those in
Europe when the Roman Empire was
on the point of dissolution. Eighteen
centuries ago the same struggle was
in force. with rival generals on all
sides leading troops in bitter struggle,
infiicting suffering on the people and
devastating the soil
Hopes for Indigenous Civilization.
Today, the Pope feels, the situation
is exactly analogous. Out of the
death pangs of the Roman breakup
Christianity came to the western
world
''He expressed definitely his hope
that theN civilization which inevitably
must emerge from the present chaos
will be actually indigenous to the
Chinese.
The Pope is happy to recall that he
asked the Benedictine missionaries in
China-to whom he confided care of
the Catholic university at Picking
to remember the deeds of their pre-
cursors in the Middle Ages, when
monks saved to the world the bulk OF
medieval and ancient culture.
In the same way the Pope hopes
the Benedictines in China today will
endeavor to save out of the chaos
every possible document, manuscript.
and statement relating to Chinese
civilization in bygone generations.
The Benedictines at the Peking Uni
versity are mostly Americans from
the Archabbey of st. Vincent, Pa.

TO heart all the calamities and trials
through which the Armenian church
and nation have passed in the last
80 years. He lives in a small. undec-
Grated room, scarcely larger than an
American hall room, whose surround
ings almost suggest poverty.
1t is from this little room that the
aged prelate directs the affairs Of the
Armenian church throughout the
world and writes thousands of letters.
Everything has been taken from

we don't complain, because we are
still allowed to officiate in our church
es and spread our faith. We have
even obtained permission to open a
seminary for training our future
priests, the erection of which was our
greatest dream. But we have no
money. Our hope rests in the Ameri-
can people, who have never failed to
promote the Christian faith
