notice that they will oppose 1t vigor-
ously.
Time Not So Auspicious.
The German visitors feel, therefore.
that the time for the Chequers meeting
is not so suspicious as it seemed only
few days ago. Both Chancellor
Bruening and Herr Curtius realize that
Mr.. Macdonald, in the face of his trou-
bles at home, will be exceedingly care
full in committing himself on interna-
tional questions, and that they will need
all their eloquence to make their Eng
lish colleagues understand GernapS's
need for sympathetic attention in these
critical times at home.
Chancellor Bruening and Herr Cur

welcome to the conference.
After a reception at the foreign office
they said their first day in London
was "eminently satisfactory" and had
proved to them that England was Ger

POPE ASKS DUCE
TO PROVE CHARGES
Editorial Challenge Issued on
Claim Youth Clubs Engage
in Politics.

ROME, June 6.-Premier Mussolini's
answer to the Vaticans challenge that
he proved his statements that youth
clubs affiliated with the Catholic Action
Society had engaged in political activ-
tiles was awaited with interest today.
Pope Plus himself is understood to
have written an editorial In Osserva-
tore Romano yesterday, which called
on II Duce to produce the document"
backing up the accusations. The arti-
Gle spoke with scorn of the Fascist
party's asserted respect" for the
church and its head.
The Fascist organ Lavorto FaciSta
thus far has made the only attempt to
demonstrate that the clubs were anti
Fascist in character. This was in the
form of a purported stenographic re-
port of a meeting of Catholic Action
leaders. 1t WIS later disclaimed by
the speakers involved, including Mgr.
Pizzardo, peoples secretary for eXtraor-
binary affairs.
Developments Watched.
The Pope's position Is described as
one. of disregard for the Fascist party
and an insistence that the government
must speak for itself. He holds that
Premier Mussolini claims to have a
strong unified government, 1t is said,
and that he should show it by control
ling Fascist ardor and opinions.
Government circles are said to real
ize there is feeling of anxiety among
the people over the recurrence Oh
troubles between the church and state
and that the principal cause of this
Is the Vatican's cancellation of religious

ing developments to see whether they

Charges Ridiculed.
The Vatican regards tile governments

protest as most unusual" but SO far
there has been nothing to indicate that
Dino Grand, the foreign minister, is
preparing reply.
Church authorities continue to reiter-
ate their denials that Catholic laymans
clubs dissolved by government order
were participating In politics, and to
ridicule assertions in Fascist news
papers that those organizations were
a haven for enemies of Fascism.
Charges that the clubs harbored So
