 Finally, the new Pope is immense ly impressed by the social unrest everywhere and the nope of the common man for better deal and a better life with more security of job and safer old age.
 In Rome, it is predicted that Plus will speak strongly on the subject in his own good time.
 He thinks Marxism is bad because he thinks it seeks to tear down peo- pie to the lowest economic level, whereas he believes it is saner to bring the lower level up to a bet ter life through wise laws imbued with the primary Christian prin- ciples.
 He has always preached patience in diversity, but has never discoun- tenanced all legitimate honest, de- cent attempts of the proletariat to better its lot.

BY MILTON BRONNER

NEA Service European Manager Copyright, 1889, NEA Service, Incl Rome March 8.-Pope Plus XII is fully conscious that he takes office in the most troubled modern time since the World War.
 This was evidenced by the yearn- ing for peace expressed in his first broadcast.
 There hangs over the new Pope not only the fear of a war which would entail destruction of Church property, drying up of its finances used for missions and schools and the presence of its sons as fighters on both sides. But there are burning questions which come to Plus XII as a painful legacy from his predeces- sor.
 The concordat with Italy aoes not touched the racial question di- rectly but gives the Church the power to make it's own regulations regarding marriage.
 This is now in conflict with the recent non-Aryan policies of the Italian government. AS the Church always maintained that regardless of race, class or origin, all its child ren are alike when they join the faith, this provides serious prob- lem which Plus XII will eventually have to face.
 He will also have to face the more violent attitude of Germany where, despite the concordat, priests are arrested, the Catholic Action sup pressed and the Old Testament as the basis for the New is ridiculed. As he negotiated the concordat with Germany and is familiar with the German people, life and literature through long service as papal Nuncio, the new Pope will natur- ally seek decent settlement with special ardor. 5'>
