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

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.
