WASHINGTON.

Washington, January 20.
- (UP) - Pope Plus today
pledged collaboration with
President Roosevelt "in be-
half of peace and In defense
against the chilling breath Of
aggressive and deadly God
less and anti-christian ten
dencies." Those tendencies,
the Pope wrote Mr.. Roosevelt,
are threatening ito dry up
the fountainhead whence
civilization has come and drawn Its
strength"
In warm response to the presi-
dents Christmas appeal for renewed
peace efforts by all men Of good viii,
the pope welcomed designation OF
Myron @. Taylor as 0 special presi-
dental envoy 10 work with the Vati-
can In seeking way 10 bring about
just and lasting peace In Europe.
Time Not Propitlous
The Holy Fathers letter, however,
echoed Mr.. ,Rooseveit's belief that
the time Is not yet propitious for q
specific plan 10 terminate destruc-
tion and build anew" Friends OF
peace, the pope said, must recog-
ni2e the slight probability OF I'm.
mediate success 80 long as the pres.
ent state Of the opposing forces re.
mains unchanged" M
The letter, made public by the
White House, placed the spiritual
leader OF the worlds 33i 100000
Catholics and the temporal head Of
tho western worlds greatest power
side by side In their determination
TO aid In every way the development
Of O constructive peace program a.
soon as conditions are opportune."
Common Ideals
The presidents Christmas message
had suggested that when 1.-THE time
shall come f0t the re.establishment
OF world peace on O surer founda-
ton, 1t Is OF the utmost importance
to humanity and TO religion that
common ideals shall have united ex-
preston"
That message went also 10 the
leaders Of the Protestant and Jewish
faiths In this country. And they
have pledged their cooperation and
have held one conference with the
president.

One Alliance
LAWLOR SEEN AS
BACK IN RACE
Street Dept. Appointment
Regarded as Fuel for
Resentment

Possibility Of a local Dem
ocratic party realignment
that would have been con-
sidered out Of the question
only a few months ago Is
now being discussed seriously
as a result Of differences
within the party's ranks.
Talked about freely is q pro-
posed alliance between Town
Chairman Joseph F. Mulville,
Senator George T. Culhane,
Roger v. Connor, onetime 1ndepend-
ent Democratic candidate for
mayor, and James T. Hartley,
chairman Of the Independent Dem
ocratio Town Committee, with the
quartet joining forces to keep con-
troll Of the party organization from
State Chairman J. Francis Smith.
ANY union between these oppos-
Ing groups would have been q virtu-
OIL iinpossibility last fall but develop
nlents since then have served to
join the factions In common opposi-
ton TO Mr.. Smith. II appears now
that the groups will suhmerge their
personal differences II any attempt
Is made to Dust Mr.. Mulville as
town chairman or TO select O town
committee composed largely Of
Smith supporters.
Displeasure with some Of the APP
pointments made BY Mayor Vincent
A. Sculy has served to bring the
issue to the fore, the anti-Smith
Democrats claiming that the ap.
pointments represented too great
concessions to the state chairman.
One clear feature emerging from
the ,snndAlAd u picturo tiBewthat. the
lChances Of former senator Joseph
H. Lawlor for denomination are ex-
tremely bright. Several influential
Democrats In the 10th senatorial
district make no bones about their
anger at being ignored In board APP
pointments. They lay the blame at
the feet of Senator Edward p. Egan,
who succeeded Senator Lawlor.
Senator Egan won the nomina.
tlon In 1898 after O senatorial con-
vention In which Independent Dem.
ocrats claimed they were given the
double cross" by Mr.. Smith. The
convention delegates had been chos-
en- In primary. The Independents
claimed that the delegates elected
were to nominate william Upper
Conley for the place. This group Is
almost certain TO oppose Senator
Egan II he seeks denomination this
year.

The girl, graduate OF Kingsbury
