GOVERNOR SMITH, ROMAN CATH. oLIc, POTENTIAL CANDIDATE
 FOR PRESIDENCY OF u. S.
APPROVES PUBLIC SCHOOLS
BELIEVES IN ABSOLUTE SEPARA- TON OF cHRcH AND STATE,
 HE SAYS IN REPLY

BOSTON, April 19. (P-Governol Smith, in letter to the Atlantic Monthly, declared he recognized no power in the Roman Catholic church to interfere with the operation of tie Constitution of the United States or the enforcement ofthe laws of the land. The Governor is a Roman Cath olic and potential candidate for the Presidency. He wrote the letter in reply to an open letter published in the Atlantic Monthly last month by Charles C. Marshal a New York law yer, who asked him a number of ques- tions seeking to define his views on the relation of the Catholic church to the State. Smith replied in part:
 You imply there is a conflict be- tween the religious loyalty to Catho- lie faith and patriotic loyalty to the United States. Everything that has happened to me during my long pub lie career leads me to know no such as that is true. I believe in absolute separation of the church and State. 1 believe no tribunal of any church has any power to make any decree of any force in the law of the land other than to establish the status of it's com municants within it's own church. T believe in support of the public school as one of the cornerstones of Ameri. can liberty. believe in the right of every parent to chose whether his child shall be educated in the public school or school supported by those of his own faith. I believe in the prin- ciple of non-interference by this coun- try in the internal affairs of other na- tions, and that We should stand stead ! fastly against any such interference by whomsoever it may be urged"

That is the opinion of Ruth Harriet
Louise, who makes a speciality of
photographing motion picture people
and snapped her first picture of the
steel magnate when Schwab climbed
several flights of stairs to visit her
roof-top studio on the Metro Goldwyn-
Mayer lot in a sightseeing trip
through FINLAND.
Miss Louise is unique among mo-
ton picture portrait photographers
not only because she Is a woman, but
because of her methods and the re-
suits she has achieved with them.
She leans heavily on music in photo
graphing screen celebrities. choosing
phonograph records for each sitting
as carefully as she arranges her lights
and shadows.
Intelligently selected music. she ex-
plains, helps the subject to forget the
photographer and drift into a mood
that will make the portrait more in

thing that will take the subjects

piled to his face, and, while he did

PRELATE FORESEES
END or CHINESE WAR
Bishop Gilman of Hankow Predicts
Conservatives Victorious, Head
ing Progressive Government.

Ultimate victory for the conserva-
tive Nationalists in China and the
establishment of a progressive govern
ment by those represented in that
group was predicted by Bishop Alfred
Alonzo Gilman. suffragan bishop of
Hankow and officer of the Chinese
National Educational Council, in an
address before a group of clergymen
and laymen of the Episcopal Church
at an informal meeting at 1929 X
street last night.
The speaker said the conservative
Nationalists are winning more and
more Chinese to their cause, which, he
indicated, furnishes visible evidence
that they will win out in the end.
The bishop predicted also that special
privileges for foreigners will be done
away with in the eventual establish
ment Of the new order of things in
China.
Bishop Gilman, who came to this
country at the request of the National
Department of Missions of the Epis-
copal Church. further predicted that
mission schools in China will continue
to function once the war clouds have
cleared away. He added that the
Chinese restrictions are not deroga-
tory to Christian schools.

ROME, May 3.-Senator William

Countess Maria Christina Bezzi-Scah.
young and beautiful member of an old
Roman family belonging to the papal
aristocracy. are to he married. An
nouncement Of their betrothal di-
vulged nothing as to when the cere-
mony would take place.
Last month the Rota, or Roman
Catholic ecclesiastical court at Rome.
granted a decree of nullity in the mar.
riage of Marconi and the Hon.
Beatrice O'Brien, daughter OF the late
Baron Inchiquin. They had obtained
a civil divorce at Fiume in 1924. after
which the Hon. Beatrice married the
Marquis Marignoli.
Marconi applied for annulment to
please his former wife, who desired
to be married by Catholic ceremony.
When the application for notification
was presented through the archdiO-
cese OF Westminster, it was pointed
out that before their wedding. in
1905. MarcOni and the Hon. Beatrice
entered into an agreement whereby
they could separate whenever they
wished.
Such pre-nuptial reservation. it was
held. made the marriage null in fact.
as marriage, in accordance with the
principles Of the Catholic Church. is
from its very nature indissoluble.
