ACTION HELD UNJUSTIFTED.
Stand of Catholic Church Set Forth by
Vatican Paper.

VATICAN CITY, January % (4g.-
The Catholic Church was understood in
Vatican circles tonight to regard the
Spanish decree dissolving the Jesuit
order in that country as lacking juSu-
fication under the new Spanish consti-
tuition.
While news Of the decree came too
late for direct comment from church
officials, the churchs stand was set
forth by OSServatore Romano. The
Jesut's oath of obedience to the church
is merely in a spiritual sense, the Vati-
can newspaper said, and the churchS
authority over them did not conflict
with the authority of the state.
The church holds that paragraph 4
Of article 26 in the Spanish constitution
(under which the dissolution decree
was drawn up), as "grammatically ana
lyZed," is applicable only to orders tax
ing an oath of obedience to an author
ity that conflicts with the state.
To deprive Catholics of the right to
spiritual obedience to the Pope, it feels,
would be the same as preventing them
from being Catholics.

BORAH HITS DEBT
HOLIDAY EXTENSION
Says ProIonging Moratorium
Makes Final Recovery
Impossible.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator Borah yesterday disagreed
with French suggestions that the mora
torium be extended.
With an assertion that prolonging the
debt suspension would be like post
poning the operation until the patient
is so weak he cannot recover" the
chairman of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee called upon France to advance
new plan for European economic sta
biliry
Tie senatc~ referred specifically to
the recent speech Of Premier Laval OF
France insisting upon the integrity of
the German reparations, a security pact
for France and fulfllment of the peace
treaties.
what Use of Moratorium"
"Under that kind of a program,
asked Borah, what is the use of a
moratorium? What possible help can
there be to anybody? And why should
the United States be interested in it?''
Borah'S firm declaration conceded
with statement recently by Senator
Reed Republican. Pennsylvania
against the European plans on war
debts and Preparations, believed to have
reflected the administration stand.
THE only constructive suggestion
if you would call it constructive-com
ing out of this weeks discussion in Eu-
rope is an extension of the moratorium,
Borah said That does not appeal to
me. There is no relief in it. There is
no recovery in 1t.
"U. S. Never withheld Aid"
"Ex-Premier Herriot regrets that the
United States refuses to get close to
France. If France would put out a
program that points toward new day,
toward the rebuilding of Europe and
the economic reconstruction of Europe,
I venture the opinion he would find the
United States extremely interested.
The United States has never since the
World War hesitated to help when the
help was toward real relief for Europe.
But after the present premier S
speech what possible encouragement Is
there for the United States to be IN
terested He put out three proposi,
tions. First, the integrity and full
payment of reparations; secondly, thaC
the peace treaties were TO be the sacred
public law of Europe, third, no dis
armament until the nations enter into
a security pact to preserve inVlolate
the peace treaties.
Under that kind of program, what
is the use of moratorium"

CHINA TO TEST TREATIES.

GENEVA. January % (P.-The Man
churian problem. that tough old enemy
of international tranquility. will again
confront the League of Nations Council
when that body of hard-pressed states
men convenes here Monday for its
siXty-SiXth session.
The Council, with Senator Joseph
Paul-Boncour Of France in the preSi-
dents chair just vacated by AriStide
BRAND, must review developments in
the Sino-Japanese conflict since adop-
ton of the resolution of "Manchurian
settlement" at Paris December 10.
BY this resolution the japanese and
Chinese spokesmen, after approving the
sending to the Far East Of an interna-
ticnal commission of inquiry. engaged
their governments to take no steps to
aggravate the situation-so similar to
War-then existing in Manchuria
Since that promise was given the
japanese have seized Chinchow and
driven the Chinese regular military
forces entirely out of Manchuria. and
the United States has delivered to
Toxic a solemn warning that no treaty
resulting from this military occupation
would be recognized by the American
Government.
Further Patience Asked.
In the meantime. the Leagues Ex-
ecutive Board and its constituent
states have shown no disposition to
take any action with regard to the
further Japanese military occupation,
but have, on the contrary, put pressure
upon Chinese diplomats to exercise
further patience.
The course Of the Manchurian delib-
erations by the council will depend
largely upon the attitude adopted by
Yen Minister at Washington, assigned
To take over the task which has been
in the hands Of DR.. Alfred SEE for
four months. ..
we can't be expected to be patient
any longer" DR.. Yen said today The
Council must say what it means by the
League covenant and the Kellogg pact.
We are told that there is no state OF
war. If that's SO I'm afraid we don
know any international law. AS mat
ter of fact. we have unlearned more
international Law in the past S months
than we learned in so years"
viii Test Treaties.
DR.. Yen implied that China's appeal
would be extended to all articles Of the
"a
international treaties. He described
the commission to investigate Man
churia as very useful, but asserted that
when a terrible contiagration is de-
stroying hundreds of men, women and
children it is not enough to send a
committee to find the cause OF the fire
We must send brigade to put it out.
China's appeal to the League has SC
far been under Article XII OF the
covenant, which requires unanimity, in
| cluding the votes of the interested
parties, before any action can be for
mulated. The Chinese from time to
time have given notice that they were
preparing to extend their appeal to
! Articles XIV and XVI, which give the
| Council right of action without regard
to the attitude Of the disputants and
provide economic and military measures
! for the enforcement of the Leagues
will against a state which is declared
to be acting contrary to the Leagues
charter.
