 This situation probably is due largely to depression nerves, but 1t is also true that during the Hoover administration there has been a tendency of government officials generally to keep close watch on what they say, particularly about such controversial subjects as the tariff and prohibition.

left arm embraced a package containing lettuce, a few tomatoes and a jar
of prepared salad dressing.
Up in the box-like room which served the Barretts a combination living

MUSS0LIN TAKES
STRONG STAND IN
NOTE f0VAFICAN
Holds Youth Clubs Were Closed
Because Of Political Action
Against State

Rome, June 24.-P)-Premier Mus
solini took a firm stand against TIE
Catholic action clubs in the Italian
reply, delivered at the Vatican Wed
nesday, to the recent note from the
Holy See.
The premier insisted. it was learned
on excellent authority. that the dis
solved clubs were anti Fascist and II.
legal, and he saw mo reason to renew
discussions on measures taken against
the juvenile association"
The church, 1t was explained, had
only itself to blame for violence In
cited by alleged Catholic activity.
The formal apology demand, made
by the pope and later modified some
what, "a met in the note with the
statement that a severe inquiry Is
proceeding regarding insults to the
pope and damage to church property
and "in the assurances of prosecution,
Of the guilty there is implied the idea
that these occurrences are deplored."
The note declared Italy still waited
to hear the Vatican "deplore" serious
demonstrations In Juglo Slavia, al.
legedly authorized by church author
tiles there, for. which Italy asked the
Vatican several months ago.
After these observations the note
1t was learned. accepted the Holy
Sees proposal for conversations to
solve the controversy rapidly and In
q friendly manner"
Italy agreed with the Vatican 1t was
desirable to define more clearly an
article Of the concordat authorizing
Catholic action which, 1t was pointed
out, was the only article of the Lat
eran agreement In dispute.
The note, it was understood, en-
phasized. the closing Of the clubs in
no wise prejudiced such interpreta-
ton because the organizations dis
solved were charged With activities
against the state and therefore should
place themselves outside the pro-
vision Of the article, which permitted
Catholic action and its subsidiaries
but prohibited any mixing in politics
and limited them to religious work.
Italy renewed her protest against
the pope's many addresses discussing
the controversy and his campaign "of
taking the offenses outside their
proper place." by appealing to world
public opinion.

Disagree With Hoover
On Details of Debt Proposal
Reply to U. S. Moratorium Plan
Handed to Ambassador Edge

Paris, June Z4.-HJ-Ine french
ireuly to President Hnoyer,A proposals
for q years suspension Of war debts

ed to Ambassador Edge by Premier
Laval this afternoon.
Accompanied by j. Theodore Mar
riner, counsellor of the embassy. Am
bassador Edge discussed the docu-
ment for half an hour with the pre-
mier.
The French government transmit
ted the reply to Ambassador Claudel
at Washington who is expected to
turn 1t over to the state department
late today.
| Premier Laval was understood to
have given Ambassador Edge detailed
explanations of the contents which
will be given out Friday.
Veil Informed quarters stated the
French reply agrees with President
Hoover that something must be done
to aid Germany and thus Europe, but
disagrees with the presidents plan Of
carrying out the proposal.
The reply, 1t is understood. makes
an effort to maintain the integrity Of
the Young plan and the uncondition-
al reparationS payments which
France considers inviolable.
The method suggested is that Ger
many pay her unconditional pay
ments to the bank for internationa!
settlements at Basel which would
turn back part of them in the form
Of short term loans to Germany and
for the other creditors of Germany
guaranteed under the Young plan.
The premier refused to make any
| comment concerning the nature OF
the French answer. He would not
say whether France insisted upon a
| counter plan concerning the payment
of unconditional annuities by Ger
many.
What conditions France attached
will not be definitely known until
the text is made public, but the cab
met last night discussed its counter
plan for aiding Germany and com
municated it to Ambassador. Edge.
This conditional acceptance Is bas-
ed upon Frances belief the Young
plan Is sacred to her financial struc-
ture and that 1t should not be inter-
fered with. She holds that the bank
for international settlement should
be the Intermediary for the reception
Of Germany's unconditional annuities
and that the money should be used
by the bank for financing Germany
and other European nations such as
| Austria.
It Is understood here Washington
feels that the Hoover plan should be
accepted in its entirety and that the
technicalities Of the Young plan
| should not be allowed to affect it.
Behind Frances policy, 1t was said,
is the fear that once shaken the
Young plan will finally fall complete
ly.
