ARTISAN RIVALRY
! AROUSED IN ITALY
Architects Competing for
Honor of Planning Projected
Cathedral Near Genoa.

BY Radio to The Star and New York Herald
Tribune.
ROME, July 14.-The diverse designs
submitted by italian architects in the
competition to provide plans for the
prUJecJeu cathedral at Spezia, below
Genoa on the Italian Riviera, reveal the
directions religious architecture is TAX
ing in this country. The judges have
now discarded all but five of the de-
signs entered. That the competition is
a national one is indicated by the fact
that the architects whose work is still
under consideration are from such wide
~ separated cities as Genoa, Rome,
Pisa, Milan and Venice.
Ancient Incident Recalled.
The interest created here by the COM
petition is reminiscent of that period at
the beginning of the sixteenth century
when aspiring young contemporaries Of
Raphael and Michael Angelo were rivals
in the contests to provide plans for
the new st. Peters, then planned by
Pope Julius II. incidentally, the time
worn designs of Bramante, the winner
in this notwithstanding competition.
together with those of the unsuccessful
participants, are still preserved in the
UffiZi Palace, Florence.
Spezia, situated on a picturesque bay,
is known both as a saltwater resort
and as the principal Italian naval base
in the Tyrrhanian. Each of the archi-
tects still in the running has taken into
consideration in varying degree the
maritime character of Spezia, for each
has provided that his cathedral shall
rest upon substantial mass of masonry
resembling mole.
Maritime Features Revealed.
This maritime influence is revealed
most clearly in the design submitted oy
Vincenzo Pilotti of Pisa, in collaboration
with Domenic Sandri of Rome. Here
the lines are for the most part vertical
and the central bell tower extends sky
ward in a way to resemble very much a
light house. The inspiration is in part
from fourteenth century Assist.
The designs submitted by TommaSo
Buzz of Milan provide for central
dome of the traditional type, and for
somewhat less lofty pyramidal towers.
the latter rising from the facade. Minor
cupolas surround the central dome.
Bruno del Giudice and Guido Cadorin
of Venice propose a church in the
austere Roman tradition, with lines
definitely horizontal rather than verti-
cal. A belfry and small dome rise but
slightly above the level of the roof of
the nave. A statue of Christ dominates
the facade.
Circular ChapeIs Form Cross.
Four circular chapels. clinging to a
dome-topped center which is in the
form of a Greek cross, give distinction
to the designs submitted by Giuseppe
Vaccaro and Cito Filomarino of Rome.

The Anti-Saloon League of
America has declared war upon
politicians who Straddle the wet
and dry issue. thus joining the
leading wet organizations in an
effort to doom all "wobblers."
Announcement of this determi-
nation on the part of the Anti
Saloon League was made today
by Superintendent F. Scott Nc
Bride, following the detection of
at least twp Senators who had
been regarded as nominally dry.
Agreeing that the present Con-
gressional campaign is drawing
the line sharper on the prohibi-
tion issue, DR.. Mcbride said:
"The 'wObbIer' is with q
cause like ours when he Is not
needed and he Is against us
every time he is needed. We
welcome the elimination of
that kind Of representatives i'm
Congress. We like to lave
Congressman with convictions.
! Experience has shown that
any man who Weakens one
way or the other on this issue
suffers defeat. Neither the
vets nor the drys want him."
DR.. Mcbride recalled that some
House members defeated in the
primaries had refused to take a
definite stand either with the
vets or the drys.
He minimized the declaration
of Senator Metcalf (R.) of Rhbde
Island for repeal Of the eighteenth
amendment. and the statement
Of Senator Glenn (R) Of Illinois
