ROME—The sharp conflict which
has been brewing during the last
few weeks between the Vatican and
the Fascist Government, over the
alleged political activities of the Az-
ione Cattolica has culminated in a
number of demonstratons in Rome
on the part of Fascist students ag-
ainst the Roman Catholic clubs and
institutions with shouting and the
destruction of copies of the Osserv-
atore Romano, official organ of the
Vatican.
Similar demonstrations are report-
ed from other parts of Italy, as a
protest against the unfriendly .atti-
tude of the Azionf1 Cattolica toward
the Fascist Government. Italian
troops are guarding the streets lead-
ing to the Vatican City state to pre-
vent the Fascists from invading the
territory.
Feeling is running high, especial-
ly in view of the disclosures made
by the Fascst newspaper, Lavaro
Fascista, on the anti-Fascist activ-
ities, of the Azione Cattolica and

those patients that will bring out
chronic diseases from the effects of
vaccination.”
Ill Effects Produced
Dr. Charles A. Freund, another
Chicago physician, said:
“Some patients react normally and
develop an immunity to smallpox
with no ill effects. Other persons do
not react properly, and have a great
many various ill effects produced.
“I have records of allergic diseas-
es, resultant upon the failure to re-
act to vaccine, and those allergic
conditions of course, comprise the
neuralgias, asthmas, colitis, hay fe-
ver, and the related group of path-
ological states."
Dr. Virginia M. Johnson, a third
homeopath, testified:
“My opinion is that, through my
experience, vaccination has been the
cause of lots of other diseases setting
in after they are vaccinated. Heart
trouble and some of the contagious
diseases have followed immediately
after vaccination, and some of the or
ganic diseases like tuberculosis, and
there was some cancer that was di-
rectly traceable to vaccination."

ainst members of Azione Cattolica.
The Azione Cattolica which has
been defined by the Pope as “par-
ticipation of laymen in the apostol-
ic hierarchy of the church,” is the
only non-Fascist organization al-
lowed to exist in Italy. Similar Ro-
man Catholic organizations exist in
many other European countries, but
their importance and influence in
public life varies according to the
strength of the Roman Catholics in
the country concerned. Clause 23 of
the Italo-Vatican concordat of Feb-
ruary 1929, recognized certain priv-
ileges to the Azione Cattolica in It-
aly, on condition that its members
do not invade the political field.
On many occasions the Fascists
have charged leaders of the Azione
Cattolica that they were not con-
fining their activities to strictly re-
ligious matters, but, under cover
of the Azione Cattolica, were at-
temptng to organize a new Roman
Catholic political party, on the same
lines as the Popular Party, which
had been dissolved by the Fascist
Government five years ago. It is a
fact that its leaders have attempted
to organize the working men into
Roman Catholic syndicates in ri-
valry to the Fascist syndical system.
The membership of the Azione Cat-
tolica is continually increasing and
the Fascists have been feeling un-
easy over the growing strength of
the Azione Cattolica, which includes
many adversaries of the present re-
gime.
