Cardinal Pacelh. the papal secretary Of
state. will start his vacation next week,

ported abroad. They asserted that
ccncordAts never are ratified until sew

that the Lateran treaty between Italy
and the Holy See was not ratified until
four months after 1t was signed.
The concordat With the Reich was
signed Q month and q half ago. The
concordat with Austria, signed three
months ago has not yet been ratified
Vatican circles reported that the

the situation In Germany. partly be-
cause Of Chancellor Hitler's attitude TO-
ward Jews who have become Christians,

But we don't necessarily have

He pointed out, for instance:
From our theories it Gurns
out that the beginning Of the
universe from a cOngested mass
took place two hundred million
years ago. There is a great
difficulty in not assigning an
age of at least two thousand
million years to the earth, so
We seem to be coming to a
theory that the earth is older
than the universe itself!

LEAD
AS 'JO|NERS'

PEIPING.-China takes tn e
honor away from the United
States in the number of societies
and groups which a "joiner"
might attach himself to. A newly
arrived American in Shanghai
figured out the number of such
organizations from a casual eX-
animation of newspapers and an
nouncements.
According to him, if Chinese
wanted to join all the different
associations, clubs, committees
and assorted groups now exist
ing in that port, it would take
at least eight years, three months,
five hours and 35 minutes. Even
then he would probably overlook
the newer possibilities.
These Chinese societies have
flourishing names, not unlike
those of the Southern belt of the

A piece of shrapnel has been

from his brain ever since he

Army surgeons in France and

of injury to the brain.
Recently the Shrapnel began to
