.N.S0.-A brand new complaint
was on file here today in the old

for separate maintenance, but
this never went to trial owing to
the extended litigation over the

In her new complaint, Mrs.
vallee charges her hush d

POPE APPEALS
TO PRESS TO
FIGHT REDS

VATICAN CITY, May12 Q.N.SJ.
A solemn warning that interna-
tional Communism Gin all its
forms and traditions is the great
est menace faced by the world to-
day was given by Pope Plus N
today at the opening of the Cath
lie press exhibition in the Vatican.
Speaking mot only as the head
of the Catholic Church, but as q
man of today" the Pope cautioned
the world against propaganda
that stops at nothing"
For the second time in two days,
the Pope rebuked Communism as
the destroyer Of individual d1gnl'
ties, the sanctity Of the family,
civil order and security, and above
all, religion"
His Holiness appealed to the
Catholic press to tell the people
YOU have seen the Vicar Of Christ
profoundly preoccupied and sad
dened by the great terror which
threatens all the world"
He urged the journalists to CO
operate "in the great work OF
facilitating our triumph by point
ing out this great danger"
Warning specifically against
communistic movements in Spain,
Mexico, Uruguay and Brazil, the
Pope continued:
"These adverse forces may be-
come. more dangerous. There
the faults are more violent and
insidiOus. But it is written
that they shall not succeed:
That is the divine word Of God,
which shall not be erased"
The Pope inferentially rebuked
the Hitler governments opposition
to the Catholic press in Germany.
He said:
'There Is another country
where, because Of the confusion
between politics and religion, it
is not wished that the Catholic
press should exist.
"TO all our sons there at this
moment, we send cur sOrr0wful
greetings and our honorable re-
membrance."
Speaking to q group of Hun
garian pilgrims yesterday, the
holy father called Communism
"today's common enemy" and
urged the world "to defend the
cause Of civilization against this
menace, so that we can hope to
enjoy the benefits Of real peace
and order"
