Use Tribune Want Ads Trumans Cause Sensation In Rome, Traveler Says (Editor's note: In this article Mrs. I. E.

Ex-President and Mrs. Tru man are causing a sensation during their visit in Rome. A headline in one of the papers was, "The glory that is Truman dims the grandeur that was Rome." Henry Luce attempted to show them the Colosseum, but the mob following and swarming and cheering was so great that they couldn't hear him. Every time it is rumored they are entering or leaving some place, hundreds gather to see them and to take pictures. Sunday morning, therefor, it must have been a relief to be in vited to the Episcopal church and to sit in quiet, unmolested and unstared at. It was not until the rector welcomed as usual the visitors in Rome and "especially our distinguished guests, ex-president and Mrs. Truman," that I realized I was sitting exactly two rows behind them. At the end of the service the congregation waited until they left. At the coffee hour afterwards many people spoke of how tired they both looked. Being a celebrity is grilling in Rome. Mr. Luce was noticeably unhappy. Church Beautiful The Episcopal Protestant church in Rome is, because of its artistic excellence, a national monument in Italy. It is often referred to as a gem among churches. It is certainly a thing of beauty and a joy to see, uni que in its simple grandeur. It is stone and marble, gothic in style. The chancel, which is oval, is decorated in mosaics by Byrne Jones. As you enter from the vestibule there seems to be al most a glow, which is warm and pleasing. Americans, living and work ing in Rome, built the church 75 years ago. Previoflsly to that of necessity they had to " worship outside the walls and much pres sure was brought to bear before St. Paul's within the walls be came a reality. - Although Episcopalean in form, it is the traditional church for all Protestant-Americans and besides a large regular congre gation, many tourists come to the Sunday services. The rector, Canon Shreve of California, a friendly down to earth man, sets a standard for hospitality and cordiality, which is reflected in his congregation and their slogan, "A home - away from home," seems to have real meaning. The custom of singing the last stanza of America, with the flag unfurled in front of the altar, is appreciated in a foreign coun try, and the words assume vast importance. It is definitely noticeable that everyone .sings with more gusto and enthusiasm than at home. The church serves the Ameri cans in many ways. Boy and Girl scouts meet there. Young people from the American schools hold weekly .parties in the reception room, Alcoholics Anonymous holds meetings there, . artists display paintings and musicians give concerts. And everyone is made welcome. Many Posters Rome is floundering in a sea of political posters. The elections are the 28th of this month and the 15 political parties are vying with one another in display ing the greatest number of slogans and pictures. "Vote Communista," "Don't vote for the party of this brute," (with big picture of Stalin); - "Vote Christian Democrat," "Vote for Monarchy," "Now is the time for socialism," etc., etc. Signs are plastered all over beautiful buildings as high as can be reached, hanging across streets, floating from windows.
