(By the Associated Press)
' Vatican news serrlce disclosed
Tuesday that Pope Plus XII had
Initiated negotiations "through
normal diplomatic contacts" in
various capitals in- an effort to
help Europe keep the peace.
' The more got a "distinctly sym
pathetic" reception- In German f or-
eign office circles.
In addition to Berlin, the pope
was bellered to have . contacted
London. Paris, Rome and War-
saw. through his - envoys with
some definite plan for, relieving
the current world tension and
maintaining peace. -
Diplomatic ; circles in. Paris re
ported France and Britain had left
to Poland the making of a final
decision on whether to act on
the Vatican's efforts.
Observers In Warsaw considered
Poland's position on the matter
as delicate. It was pointed out that
Poland is ' strongly Catholic, but
at the same time Is averse to any
thing other than direct negotia
tions in settling foreign problems.
Von Ribbentrop to
Report to Hitler
' The move came at a time when
Germany Is engaged In Intense
diplomatic activity in both Europe
and Asia. Foreign Minister Joa

after arranging the new Rome

ance, was on his way to Chancel

Marshal Hermann Wilhelm Qoer
ing, was en route to nationalist
Spain to strengthen German ties
there, and officials In Berlin stu
died relations with Japan. - 1 '
The foreign ministers of Nor
way, Sweden, Finland and Den
mark, meeting in : Stockholm to
consider Germany's offer of last
week of- mutual, non-aggression
' treaties, charted a course of strict
neutrality.
Although they did not announce
outright rejection, of Germany's
offer, they said their policy "ex
cludes them from being the ob
ject of any political combination
whatever of the powers." They
agreed to let each country decide
for itself whether to accept Ger
many's offer.
Russia appeared to be possibly
on the "road to better relations
with Poland as a result of the ar
rival in Warsaw of Vladimir P.

The request was made at a con

five leaders of the United Mino

Secretary of Labor Perkins. Mr.

he had told the disputants the
public good demands an immedi

by tomorrow night ' they ahould
work out a method for reopening
the mines.

formed the reporters of the con

indignant pitch when he asserted
the two factions had agreed on.

only that he was not looking
