PLEA FOR PEACE.
SERAI ON BY THE POPE:
(From Daventry)
The Pope made a new plea for world peace on Sunday, and prayed that Italy would be spared the horrors of war. His Holiness was speaking at Pontifical Aiass.
“The hour has come,” the Pope said, “for all Italian people to pray for peace while the whirlwinds unleashed by human passion threaten beyond the Alps and the Italian frontier.” At the end of his sermon the Pope received a tremendous ovation, and tlie congregation which packed the church cheered for nearly five minutes, and shouted “Long live the Pope.”
