injured and burned last night when
the automobile in which they were
riding was struck by a street car at

attitude OF POPE
ON AL SMITH TOLD
Holy See Is Indifferent to
U. S. Election, Says
Archbishop.

That Pope Plus is absolutely indif-
ferent toward the candidacy of Gov.
AL Smith of New York "or that of
any other person in the approaching
presidential election" was the declara-
ton of Archbishop Fumasoni-Biondi,
the apostolic delegate in the United
States, in a formal statement made
public today.
The statement was authorized with
the purpose of clearing up 'any
doubt in the public mind about the
Holy Sees attitude" and it added that
Cardinal Gasparri secretary of state,
has considered it proper, even though
superflous. to emphasize the Vatican S
position of aloofness from the politics
Of the United States"
The statement by the apostolic
delegate follows:
Lest there should be any doubt in
the public mind about the Holy Secs
absolute Indifference concerning the
candidacy of Gov. Alfred Smith of
New York, or that of any other per-
son, in the approaching presidential
election, Cardinal Gasparri, secretary
of state, has considered it proper,
even though superfluous, to emphasize
the Vatican's position of aloofness
from the politics of the United States.
'In communication received by
Archbishop Fumasoni-Biondi, apostolic
delegate in the United States, the
cardinal secretary of state notes that
some newspapers have been referring
to Gov. Smith as the candidate of the
Holy See,' while others declare his
candidacy is deplored by the Holy See.
His eminence deemed it superfluous to
assert that the Holy See is not inter
ested or concerned in any way in the
coming presidential campaign, and
this by reason of her principle of re-
naming absolutely aloof from the in
ternal contests in the political circles
of every country"

''It didn't need much explanation or

nature. He was quick to see the diff
culties that surround legislative ef-
fort and he cared little for the fact,
if he knew it, that the other fellows
motives were not like his own-wisely
selfish. But he still insisted that there
ought to be several classes of trains

roads, SO that real inspiration and

enthusiastically admitted it. His pop

converts wherever he met Congress
men, but this wasn't enough for his
energetic spirit. He wasn't satisfied
with meeting Congressman in pairs or
groups. He wanted to be where he
could round them all up at once, and
conceived the idea of going on the
very floor of the Housc. Here, how
ever, he ran up against those con-
founded Cannon Rules Not only
was it impossible for him to go on the
floor in his own right, but it was not
even possible for the Speaker to recog-
nize any member who might desire to
ask unanimous consent to admit him.

covered that the only exception was
