 can Sovereignty Was Recognized
 Rome, Dec. 20 LP)-Pope Plus NT ending nearly GO years of self-im- priSonment of th 1pes in the Nati- can, made his exit at dawn today from the pontitical quarters and en- tered Italian territory.
 It was the first time since 1870. when the kingdom Of United Italy was formed and the papal state de- stroyed, that il Pope had left the Vatican.
 Notifying hardly anyone, the Pon- tiff drove at G:45 a. m. in an auto mobile from the Vatican to St. John Lateran. the palace or church where last February the treaties were signed solving the so-calied Roman question. Even most of his entouraGe knew nothing of his. de. parture.
 He celebrated mass there, com mCmOratlng the fifticth anniversary of his ordination as q priest. So unassuming was the departure and so unforeseen that the public was unaware that history had been made until issuance of bulletin announcing the event by tie Stefani news agency at 9:55 a. III.
 St. John Lateran is the "Mothcr Church of Christendom," and IS considered the cathedral of Rome, It was therefore natural that the Pope, who is bishop of Rome. should go there. He was the first Pope to celebrate mass at St. John Latcran since Plus TX.
 Students Assist at Mass
 The Pontiff when he left the Va IIcah was panied by Monsy- nor Caccla Dominione, chamberlain Of his household, and q few other attendants. Meanwhile he had had the director of the Lombard semi nary notified since he wished to be assisted at mass by the students of the school.
 Lombard seminarians served the then young Don AchiIle Ratti on December 2l, 1879, when he sail his first mass at san Carlo Al Corso and he wished their successors 10 be with him for the hftieth ami Yersary of his priesthood.
 shortly after the Pontirf arrived at the palace the students of the Roman seminary received word of the momentous event and hastily came to the church where they as sisted hlm at mass. The Pope salJ the regular low mass of the fourth Friday in Advent with commemor- atlon of Saint Liberatus, the bishop whose feast is today.
