DARK FUTURE IS
FACED IN SPAIN,
SAYS POPE Plus
Pontiff Says Anti Religious
Riots 'Foreboding of
Many Ills
BY FRANCIS REA
Cnited Press STAFF Correspondent

VATICAN CITY. May Ie.-Pope
Plus XI today is convinced that the
antireligious riots in Spain last week
were the "foreboding of many ills"
The pope told z group of Span
ISL pilgrims here in connection with
the conlmemoration Of the "rerum
novaruIn" encyclical OF Pope Leo
XIII, issued forty years ago on the
problems of capital and labor, that
even prior to the vandalism last
week things in Spain already
were bad"
1T is certain the responsibility
Of those permitting such q sad sit
uation to arise is most serious" the
pope said in addressing the PILGRIMS
Sunday.
Likewise the responsibility Of
those who performed such sad acts
and the responsibility Of those
who did not prevent their MATERIAL
cation is most serious"
The pope then referred to the at
titude Of the new republican gov
eminent, which has moved to sep
arate the church and state in Spain
Things in Spain already we're
bad and fQreboding many ills" he
said, even without these violent
sacrileges against God and the holy
religion"
The holy see last Friday officially
protested to the new republican
government in Spain against the
rioting which resulted in attacks
on church buildings and the loot
ing and destruction of two score
religious buildings by fire.
The republican. leaders, however,
have been inclined to deprecate the
Of the protest.
Measures have been taken in
however, to punish persons
for the attacks.
