Pope IS ANGERED
Methodist ProSeIytizing to
Be ASSaiIed Soon.
By United Press

By United Press
ROME, Aug. 2S.-Pope Plus XII
plans to intensity his protests
against American Protestant prose-
lytizing in Italy, especially on the
part Of the Methodist church.
With the Italo-Vatican quarrel
settled, the Pope will renew the
campaign against prosalytizing in
his next pastoral letter or allocu-
ton, it was learned today from au-
thoritative sources.
The decision was prompted by the
laying Of the corner stone of a
large Methodist church at Talia-
cozzo, not far from Rome. Elabo-
rate ceremonies were held and
MethodistS went from Rome to
swell the crowd of local adherents
to the faith. The ceremony was re-
garded as a direct challenge to the
Catholic church, which was pro-
tected as the italian faith under
the Lateran treaty.
