Wright, who for 35 years was a doorman in the Capitol, and then lost his position when he was arrested last February on charges in- volving the prohibition laws. was ac- quitted of the charges yesterday by a jury in Pollce Court. It took the jurymen less than half an hour to reach their verdict. It was Wright's second trial, the flr jury having disagreed. Accord- ing to the testimony, Wright was sup- posed to have taken Reese Ford, a | former prohibition enforcement agent, to his apartment at 720 Thirteenth street, and thepe sold him three pints of whisky. Ford admitted, however, that a search of Wright's place after the arrest fajled to disclose any other Wright categorically denied the testimony, and swore that the liquor was brought to his apartment by an- other man at the solicitation of Ford.

All Sects Against War. BY HIRAM K. MODERWELL. By Radio to Thé Star and Chicago Daily News. ROME, September 16.—Attainment of universal peace between nations and classes by recoghition of Christ as King of the World is the idea behind the establishment of a new church feast which will be pro- claimed by the Pope at a_mass te deum at St. Peters, closing holy year on New Year's eve. The choice of New Year eve in- stead of Christmas eve as the date of the final jubllee ceremony (al- though the holy door will be closed December 24 according to canonical custom) emphasizes the exceptional importance of this idea which Pope Benedict XI will launch on a war- weary world on the occasion. Some see therein actuation of the supreme purpose of his reign as formulated in his motto—peace of Christ in the kingdom of Christ. \ Move for World Peace. The_new feast of “Christ, King of the World,” will emphasize the church’s conviction which the present Pope made especially his own, that the world peace which all people are seeking must rest upon universal recognition of the kingship of Christ over all, irrespective of natfonality. During the last three yvears petitions have reached the pontiff from 600 C., WEDNESDAY, cardinals, archbishops and bishops of all nations, including former allies, central powers and neutrals, urging the establishment of such a feasi to educate the masses into true brother- hood of peoples. It is assumed that the Pope feels the world now is sufficiently recover- ed from war passions to be receptive to his idea, which he belleves can be realized only by supernational, spiritual power. This is interpreted as a continu- ation of the policy maintained for the past 10 years by the Vatican, which although all belligerent; powers lought to gain its influence for political poses, resolutely maintained its G trality in the interest of a future rec- onclliation of peoples, It is also re- garded as resusitation' in another form of the idea which .was predomi- nant in the middle ages. Until it was considered the temporal rulers exer- cised authority as representatives of God In the interest of universal Christlanity. The present Pope’s idea contains no political implications but, according to SEPTEMBER 16, 1925 Catholic commentators, preserves the essential truth of the medieval theory —all Christians are subjéct to the same spiritual authority and are equal before the same Supreme Judge. Only on this common basis, they say, can the post-war world be reconstructed and future wars and social struggles be avolded. The Pope's proclamation to the world, developing these ideas, is ex- pected to be one of the most im- portant international documents of re- cent years. Catholic organizations throughtout the world will endeavor to spread these ideas among the mil lions who accept thelr spiritual guid- ance, thus laying the basis for mutual comprehension which will help to avert future international misunder- standings.
