New Pope Won Many

pecially the best wishes of those who
lunched with him; we wanted a pope
we are personally acquainted with.
However, early cables didn't indicate
that our candidates chances were
very promising. He was papal secre-
tary of state and, during the con-
clave, he was Cardinal CamerlengO
(that is, chamberlain). In other
words, his role was important, but
he wasn't particularly mentioned for
the papal throne. Five members Of
the sacred college were conspicuous
ly spoken of in dispatches as prob
abilities, but Cardinal Pacelli's name
was not among them. This greatly
fretted the National Press Club.
When the ticker brought the first
news that he was elected, after all, a
chorus of rejoicing went up from the
whole club membership.
New POpc's Personality.
Cardinal Pacelli visited this coun-
try on never very clearly explained
mission 1t was quite widely report
ed that he came here mainly to put
the husher upon Father Coughlin.
That story cart he verified. 1t may
De true, nevertheless.
Anyway, he was here, and the
Press Club invited him to be its guest
speaker.
He accepted and the club was flat
tered. Naturally all hands were wild
to see and hear him. Tickets for that
luncheon were at a premium. There
was a perfect jam to get them. The
club auditorium was OVerflOWing. 1t
took a police escort to get the car
dinal into the building. If it had been
foreseen that he'd be the new pope
I'll bet it would have been necessary
to call out the militia.
The then cardinal proved to be
very tall, very slender Thouoh on
Italian, he has somewhat the physi-
ognomy of an Irishman-that kind
of a CUB, as the irish themselves de-
scribe it.
He was attired informally ecclesti-
astically, with a scarlet Skullcap over
his tonsure.
The cardinal was extremely friend
ly and smiling.
He made a speech. It was in mid
ding good United States language
a little broken, but highly credit
able for any one but native.
In short, the new pope knows
something about us.

His record indicates that he
doesn't like Nazis.

RY HENRY AVERHL

Raleigh, March 7.-AdvocateS of
the Cape Fear Authority bill, intro
duced last week by Representative
Lacy McBryde Of Cumberland, are
trying hard to prevent their pet from
having to bear the brunt of any onus
involved in labelling it Little
TVA', but a reading Of the measure
indicates it would give the proposed
Authority wide powers for develop
ment of the Cape Fear Valley.
Quoting from the bill the Authe Ii

ual pressure to get them "as is"
Nevertheless and Notwithstanding,
there is an impression pretty well
widespread hereabout that unless the
governor does take a hand in the pro-
ccedings they are apt to get out OF
hand before the week is over.
There is also an impression that he
has been applying bit Of 'per-
suasion' if not ''pressure" to some
legislators who might otherwise
prove more or less obdurate in their
views regarding the so-called bal
ance of the budget under the revenue
and appropriations bills reported to
the House floor.
There exists, however, a general
tendency to impute to the governor
not only this one, but every one who
went before him-a willingness and
ability to put the screws on legisla-
tors; though no North Carolina gov
ernor has any hold on them except
his personal popularity and his pre-
rogative of making appointments.
Governor Hoey hasn't many appoint
ments left to make, and his per-
suasiveness may thereby be reduced.

The Miaja government, which sue
7ceeded that of Premier Negrin, and
included no communists, tried to re-
assure Madrid's citizens by broad
casts that the populace should not
be frightened by the presence of
fighting planes over the city.
''It is the old republican aviation
force standing loyalty and uncondi-

government" one radio explanation
said.
The revolt developed among
troops in the environs Of Madrid. In
the early morning there was cannon
and machine gun fire in outlying sec

an intermittent fire within the city
proper. Miaja last night became
head of the national defense govern
