Il DUCE Will
PAY VISIT TO
VATICAN CITY
Recent Difficulties To
Be Forgotten At
Confab

VATICAN CITY. Sept. 5-(P-
Premier Mussolini's long deferred
visit to the Pope is being planned
for early next week, probably
Tuesday, 1t was said on good au-
thority.
The premier will be received with
unusual ceremonlousness and 1t has
been agreed that there will be no
mention Of the recent unpleasant
ness between the government and
the Vatican.
Important Call
Although most OF the arrange
mentS for the visit have been made
a few details remain to be deter
mined. The ceremony for prime
ministers will be altered to make
the premier's call assume all pos
sible importance.
After his visit to the Pope Signor
Mussolini will call OH Cardinal
Paceli, papal secretary Of state.
who Immediately afterward will re-
turn the call at Mussolini's office
in the PalaZzo Venezia.
The premier was expected to
visit the Pope after the lateran
treaties were signed but for some
reason the plan never was dis
cussed officially and controversy
over the Interpretation OF the
treaties soon put 1t aside.
Visit Discussed
When the recent accord between
the government and the Vatican
was reached the visit was discussed
again semi-officially but many
fascists thought nothing would be
done.
Vatican officials had hoped that
the premier would make some such
gesture OF friendliness and they
are greatly pleased over the pros
pects for his ceremonial visit.
