FORMER ENVOY
HERE SEEN AS
NEXT POPE

ROME. Dec. 10 U.N.SO.-A car
dinal well known to Americans
a missionary at heart whose Ia
bors have carried him to the
frontiers Of the church's spiritual
empire-is among the princes OF
the church most frequently men
toned as a possible successor to
Pope Plus XI.
He is Francesca Cardinal Mar
chetti Selvaggini. Like Cardinal
Pacelli, papal secretary Of state,
Cardinal Marchetti is a close con-
fidant of Pope Plus.
Six Years in D. C.
AS one of the younger papal
possibilities, Cardinal Marcnetti,
who is "a, also fultillS the age re-
uuirement. Vigor is deemed an
essential in prospective Popes, tor
the high office takes a heavy
toll on health.
Many American Catholics know
Cardinal Marchetti as the Secre'
tary to the Apostolic delegation
who spent six years In WaSnlng
ton from 1900 to 1916.
When Pope Plus made him car
dinal in 1880, it was In recognl'
ton of his missionary work tnat
reached a fruitful climax in 1925,
wnen as head of the Opera
Eide" he won the acclaim OF mil
lions of Catholics throughout the
world for his brilliant direction OF
mission work.
Greeted Halle SelaSSie
Cardinal Marchetti made his
most difficult journey into the
foreign field in 1929 when, as
archbishop, he was sent by Pope
Plus to Adds Ababa 70 congratu-
late the now fugitive Emperor
Halle SelaSsie upon his accession
to the Ethiopian throne.
He spent nearly nine years in
Germany, pacifying differences
among the Catholic clergy, grow
ing out of the development OF
modernism" during which some
doctrines of the Catholic faith
were subject to constant attacks.
When the World War came Car
dinal Marchetti was a monSlgnor.
The Holy See was in delicate
position. From Rome it could not
adequately handle the pleas for
aid to the wounded and prison
ers which came to the Pope from
both sides of the conflict.
Aided War Prisoners
An office was established in
Berne, Switzerland, on neutral
tterritory and Monsignor Mar
chetti was placed in charge. He
organized systems for handling
correspondence between the Holy
See and belligerents on both sides.
He created a clearing house for
appeals for aid to prisoners
wounded, and bereaved families.
With the end of the war, he was
recalled to Rome and reward. Gre
ated an archbishop, he was sent to
another outpost of the church-to
Venezuela, where he remained as
archbishop of Seleucia for two
years. In 1920, he went to Vienna
as the first postwar nuncio to the
new Austrian republic.
Back to Rome he went in 1928
to undertake the work he loved
best, the development of missions
and propagation Of the faith.

Bride BeStOWS
Gifts Upon
Herself

LONDON-Cases have been
known where girl has bought her
own engagement ring-even her
wedding ring-but a case was be-
fore the Marylebone police court,
the other day, in which gifts were
bestowed on the prospective bride
by herself and whose fiance was a
Pigment of her imagination.
Eileen Rainbird was her name,
and she was charged with embezzl-
ing $245 belonging to her EN-.
ployerS. In court her mother said
that her daughter had created an
imaginary sweetheart at a bank
and made believe that the jewelry
she bought had come from him.
The magistrate said that it was
a rather unSual case, and he re-
manded the girl to see if she was
abnormal and in need of medical
treatment.

PRIEST STRIPS
RED CLAIM

An attempt is being made by
some Communist leaders Ito win
a hearing from the Catholic people
by saying that early Christians
were Communists, the Rev. Igna,
titus Smith, OPP, declared last
night in a sermon at st. Dominic S
Church, Sixth and E Streets
Southwest. He said:
"SOme of the early Christians
did live a common life. They
did this voluntarily. Russia and
its international Sappers could
learn from the experience of
these early Christians that a
common life is impossible of
achievement without a deeply
religious nature and the highest
religious motives.
"a common life cannot be
built through law and force.
The common life pOstulateS the
suppression of the desire for
individual possessions. This sup
preston must be accomplished
by individuals themselves vOlun-
tarily. They must not and can
not be forced into it except by
the pressure of their own wills,
animated by lofty motives.
"The same is true of the life
of members of the religious Or
derS today"

SUES SCHOOL

NEW YORK, Oct. 3 GN.sD.
Robert Burke, president-elect of
the class of 1888 at Columbia Uni
versity, has filed suit against trus-
tees of the university seeking to
compel them to accept him a. a
student, it was learned today.
Burke was refused permission
to register this year because of his
leadership in a demonstration at
the home of Nicholas M. Butler,
Columbia's president, last May II,
protesting against the uniVerSity'S
sending delegates to Heidelberg
UniverSity'S celebration.
Arthur Garfield Hays, who filed
the action for Burke, pointed out
in the suit that Burke came down
from his Youngstown (Ohio) home
at great expense: that the univer
sity made a contract with him
when accepting him as student,
and that it has not abided by its
agreement to accord him the same
privileges as other students.

wife in the little Hungarian col

discussion today.

Rottenhoffer, Mrs. Rose CSepeter

annoying Mrs. Czinkota, who de-
MED she had any knowledge of
Witchcraft. The three women were
paroled for a week pending fur
Their investigation.
Mrs. Rottenhoffer insisted that
there was a sound basis for her
accusations against Mrs. Czinkota.
She said:
with my own eyes, saw
her fall to the floor, expand
bigger and bigger in the body
while her head grew small and
like a fish. Two horns Sprang
from her head. Each horn had
four rings on it. A tail shot
from her back. Her hands and
feet changed to hOOfS. Fire
brands and balls of fire burst
around her"
Other women said that Mrs.
CZinkota gathered herbs from her
garden, set them to brew and
then things happened"

KNOX SCOTS
AT REVOLT

Special to American Newspapers, Inc.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Oct. Back
in New York State, Col. Frank
Knox, Republican candidate for
Vice President, last night answered
President Roosevelt'S claim the
present Administration had pre-
vented revolution and brought
back recovery from the depreS-
sion, and added:
"These two contentious are as
hollow as a gOurd. The only
revolution that ever menaced us
was the one the false prophets
of the New Deal have nOuriShed
and promoted.
"The danger of revolution de
veIOped in this country after
March 4, 1888. On that date
the Government of this country
was taken over by a group of
fanatics and experimenters, men
who thought the American sys-
tenn a failure, men VINO liked
the Russian system"
The only solution of the relief
problem. he insisted, is employ
ment through a broad revival Of
business. He quoted Harry L.
Hopkins. Works Progress Admins
traitor, as having said:
"TheSe people are getting the
habit: it's going to cost the tax
payers far more in the future
than any four billions or twice
four billions"
Colonel Knox commented:
There we have the whole
New Deal philosophy. 1t is a
philosophy of failure and it
ramifies through all the mud
died career of the New Deal"

ALL CLUES FAIL

Police Admit Inability
To Find Any Motive
In Mystery Killing

GOWN GTON, KY, Oct. 8
G.N.SO.-Grim tragedy today SUI
perseded joyous plans for the we'd
ding next Wednesday of Miss
Frances Marie Brady, 30, whose
battling murder left police without
clues to the slayer's identity.
Assistant Police Chief Alfred
Schild, in charge of the investiga-
ton, said:
1--WE are completely without
leads. Miss Brady had no enc
mics. We have talked to rela-
tiveS, friends and associates, but
none could advance a possible
motive for her murder"
John j. O'Donnell, the slain
girls fiance, denied himself to in
reviewers but police said he, too,
knew of no one who would want to
kill his intended bride.
Sister Escapes Death
But for fate the bullet that
snuffed out Miss Brady's life
might have killed her sister, Elsa
line, instead. The two girls and
another sister, Margaret, were re-
turning home early Friday morn
ing from a bridal shower" for
Frances. When Elsaline had diff
ficulty inserting the key into the
front door lock, her sister, Fran
ceS, opened the door.
Swapping on an electric light,
Frances saw the intruder. She
screamed and revolver shot rang
out. The victim died before
reaching a Cincinnati hospital.
Her sisters, hysterical, noticed
only that the fleeing assassin was
a man. He escaped through the
kitchen door, leaving no clue eX-
cept the .32-caliber bullet that
killed Miss Brady. Assistant Po-
lice Chief Schild sent that to Gin
cinnati to determine the type of
gun from which it was fired, but
even when that is established,
Schild conceded, police will have
little with which to work.
PROSTATE with grief, the sisters
were kept in SecluSion but Chief
Schild said neither was able to
tell anything that might help
solve the murder of Miss Brady.
Robbery Theory Fails
Chief Schild said that while
robbery might appear to be log.
ical answer, he could not accept
that theory because many valu-
ables, including a number Of we'd
ding presents displayed on a din
ing room table, had not been
touched. Two dresser drawers, he
said, stood ajar but they had not
been ranSacked.
The Brady girls lived alone.
Several weeks ago, police learned,
a key to the front door lock dis
appeared and was never found.
There was a possibility it reached
the hands of the slayer, they
said, but they considered this
theory improbable.
Miss Brady will be buried Mon
day after high requiem mass in
st. Mary's Cathedral.

FRANKFORT ON MAIN, Ger
many, Oct. 3 GN.SO Marking
completion of the first lap of my
projected record-breaking tour
around the world, the giant diri-
gible Hindenberg nosed easily
into the Frankfort landing field
today, just So hours and 3 min
utes out of Lakehurst, N. j.
We had covered 1891 sea miles
aboard the luxurious Sky-liner-a
trip packed with thrills, adven-
ture and suspense.
The suspense was due to keen
and anxious speculation regard
ing our connections to Italy and
then on to the Far East, for after
Keeling off a beautiful clip two
thirds of the way over the At
lantic, the Hindenburg mad to
slow down because of headWinds.
We were making 81 knots as the
huge ship scared over the English
Channel at 5 o'clock this morning,
New York time.
Over Channel
But it was breakfast time for
us, and coffee and toast were in
order as we flew over the chalk
cliffs of Dover, EaStbourne, and
FolkeStone. The visibility was fine
and our shadow falling over the
English coaStline made truly
beautiful sight.
On our right was Calais. bathed
in sunshine, lovely to look at in
it's mellow age.
We had our first European
greeting in the shape of an AmSter-
dam-bound passenger plane from
London which roared about us
in a graceful circle.
We three participants in this
latest and greatest attempt to pull
the worlds belt a few notches
tighter-H. R. EkinS, Leo Kieran
and myself-spent fretful morn
ing.
We knew the Hindenburg's re-
duced speed would make us miss
the Rome bound plane leaving
Frankfort at 11:45 a. M, but we
did hope we'd land in time to
make a o'clock train.
What contrast is that feverish
outlook to the tranquility aboar
the Hindenburg as she fought her
way with eXasperating slownesS
along the English Channel and up
to her home port.
Once the big Yep flew from Lake.
hurst in 40 hours-but not for
Dorothy!
Ekins has some real woe, and
Nellie BLY, became Florence Night
ingale when he was stricken with
a bad cold. I ordered him to bed,
and dosed him with aspirin tablets
and a hot toddy.
He's better today, and I feel
rather glad to think that maybe
I could help a little to keep a good
sporting rival in the race.
AS for Kieran, his only grief is
ignorance of the Worlds Series
scores!
y Thrill of thrills, though, was
standing at the controls of the
great Hindenburg and actually
steering her!
In spite of the disappointment
in not being able to make the
plane from Frankfort to Rome, I
am told that even the London
route to the Orient uses the rail-
road from Paris to BrindiSi, since
Imperial Anyways does not fly pas
senger planes over the Alps by
night. I expect to catch the spe-
cial Imperial Anyways train at
Rome.
All arrangements for the rest of
the trip, from Bangkok to Hong
kong, thence Manila and San
Francisco, have been completed,
is the comforting news brought by
radio.
Nervous and on edge, we're now
all set to rush off the dirigible
within view of the towers of the
Frankfort Cathedral-and soon it
will be: This is Frankfort, that
I waS!"
