In eonnei'tion with the re-establishment
of the pope's tem

in u' manner that the pope of
ficially called "conilemnahlc
modernism. "
In Mussolini's attitude the
pope sees a danger to Chris
tianity, "heretical and worse
1han heretical expressions as to
1 1n very essence of Christian
ity and CatholocisiiL."
The pope's letter to Cardinal
(lasparri rebukes the Italian
dictator, in stern fashion, and
Kurope wonders what the re
sult will lie.
Mussolini is not patient, and
the Italian accord with the Vat

is still aboard, hidden In the carso

NAPI.KS, Itnly, June C. (I)
Kxploslve activity in the eruptive
cone of Mount Vesuvius Increased
today wllh tremendous barrages of
rocks nnd ushes bombarding the
walls of the great crater. There
was a slight subsiding In the flow
of Inva. however.
An official bulletin from the Ve
suvius observatory Vuld further
danger probably would he avoided,
yet It concluded:
"Hut the life of volcanoes i no
mysterious that one cannot Judge
the outcome from the appearances
of the Tiumenl."
Villagers around the southern
nnd astern base of the volcano were
panic-stricken us they deserted
their homes. As they went they
prayed they might be delivered
from "the wrath of Vesuvius." and
sang hymns of trust and faith in
Providence.
The erstwhile Utile village of
Terizno appeared to bo hecominu
encircled with a belt of lavu from
a flow which first started toward
Cam It e n woods hut somehow
changed Its course and entered the
Village Itself.
The Inva oozed around the dwell
ings, smoke poured from windows,
and then the walls bulged like the
skin of a baked potato. ' As the
walls crumpled the house disap
peared In the river of fiery liquid
rock. Speed of ll'.; flow was as
serted by observers to be at times
as high as l.Tton feet an hour.
Because of the danger from fly
ing rocks authorities, as much as
possible, have prevented sightseers
from approaching the tnotintaln.
