MUSSOLIN Ml POPE FiGHT FOR ITALIAN YOUTH Both Firm in " Belief Their Organizations Should Di rect Education of Grow ing Italian Citizens By Stewart Brawn, (United Press atarf Correspondent.) ROME. (UP) After tvro years of comparative peace, friction haa broken out again between the Roman Cath olic church and the Italian govern ment. . ' ; Ttie dispute lias brought Into direct conflict two of the world's most dom inant personalities, pope Plus XI and Premier Benito Mussolini, Both ure determined to have their own way. Pope Plus, temporal sovereign of a state containing only 108 acres, but directing the religious life of 350.000. 000 persons, has pitted his strength" against Premier Mussolini, dictator In ia land of 42 million citizens en compassing 119 thousand square miles. ' Battle Not I'nequul. Are they fighting an unequal bat tle? It appears not, for what one lacks in domestic physical strength Is compensated by the moral support of Catholic sympathy throughout the world. Mussolini la matching inter nal unity and - force against the Pope's International strength. i Their quarrel results from directly clashing desires. The pope, following the historic custom of the church, demands that the church be allowed to supervise the moral,1 social and physical training of Italian youth through long- existing organizations. Mussolini, developing the fascist the ory that every Italian child, -woman and man belongs to the state and must be trained In all but religion by the state, Insists that Italian children must be Instructed by fas cist organizations. This difference of opinion Is fun damental (Did strikes at the vital forces of the two systems. Just as fascism la determined to control the cultural and physical education of youth, so la die Cathol lc oh urch . The church, having Its seat In the midst of the Italian kingdom, feels It has a right to the moral training of Italian youth. Important Concession. The church did make one Import ant concession to fascism when, ahoftly before the signing of the La tern n areatles In 19U9, It disbanded the i Catholic Boy Scouts throughout Italy. But Mussolini was not satis-flHliand.-the , existence of Catholic youth organizations throughout Italy was an Irritation which he could not abide. When the occasion arrived, he was determined, once for all, to dis band the Catholic youtli clubs and force the children Into fascist youth associations. There wus not only a question as to which would train the youth of Italy but also In what manner and by what methods. The church has several times charged that fascist) military training for boys and the reverence of guns and physical forces wus inspiring hatred and Irreverence in the hearts of Italian children. The two systems of education. It is true, differ basically and to continue his fascist regeneration of Ituly It wus necessary for II Duce to remove the Catholic clubs from the field.
