THE CHURCH aN ITALY, Exposition of the Minister of Finance on the Use of Kectesinatical Property for State Pur- poses-How the Peraens and Property of the Cleray May be Held from Special Legisia- ny Bees We publish to-day a report of the explanatory speech with which Signor errerhs, tho Minister of vinkece, re. re Yhe Italian Church Property bill nto he Chamber of eR, From the deigils contained ip my financial statement upon the Gch of May, the Chamber is already acy | with the general aim of the bill I have now the honor to subunit for ite deliberation. It is only requisite to add & few words to explain its working. I proposed to myeeif to discover the simplest possible system for promptly obtaining from the liquidation of the ecclesiastical patrimony a round sum of 600,000,000 (lire), @ad at the same time to relieve the State trom all the charges the maintouauce of tho Catholtc form of worship imposes upon it. To obtain the former resuit E laid down the principle that the six hundred millions im question ought to be levied in the torm of taxes upon the various items making up the ecclesiastical pauimony, reckoung om account of tha: eum, first, the puvlic debt which is or Ought to be entered in favor of the sa} ecciesi- sation] funda, Or in their default, in favor of the Public Worship Fund; and, secondly, the value of buildings belonging to the ecclesiastical patrimoay, which would — by Agreomment at ihe amount of twelve Undor this bead the operations will be completed :— First, by the power the voveromont asks of you by art cle ten to make use of the amount of that tax, and, gecond, by the power of contracting with a company which assures in it@ Own mame the punctual payment of tho tax, (art, 11.) ahi mptly bringing in the present law raw up artcle Tl in this shape, le I occupy myself in compicting the necessary operations to to replace it by enother, in which, imstead of askiag of you the power of contract, I should beg you to approve the contrac: I should have ie honor to lay before you ag an integral portion of the wr. oe 2 beg - o ey fem a pod charges im, upon it 1@ maintenance the Catholic form of worabip, T should also believe I had attamed it in the most simple manner if artiole 5 and 6 of the bill receive your approv You are awi gentlemen, that these charges h: rh and laid down by article 23 Joly 7, 1866, of the are also awaro ‘that a twofold operation woula have to be effected in the present position of affairs, im ordor carry out that article, it, The Site Must place ttself in posseasion of that funded property which the law bas declared convertiblo into public debt, and, handing it over to the crown iands, join it in one total with the part of the former ecclesiastical patrimony that haw already passed into its hands by the «ifoct of laws anteriur to that of July 7, 1866, 21. The Stato must further, at the samo time, creale an equivalent amount of public debt entored in favor of the public worsnip fund, Pape y means of which all the abovenamed charges should m The consequonce of this arrangement is that the Stare would be compelled to assume the pnitive burden of a neo debt, which would in- crease the expenditure without any other compensa- tion than the eventual reduct of ‘the property trans- ferred to tue crown lands, and with the very probable risk of being further compelled to subject iisell to th necessity of opening other credits in the budget in order to meet the charge Iaid down in the afore-cited Art, 23 of tho iaw of July 7, 1866, To avoid 80 grout un inconvenience 1 have thought tt my duty to propose to you (Art, 6) that all tho property siready transferred, or destined to be transferred to the ccown lands, should exclusively coustitute (ufter deduc tion of the amount required for the tax) the fund -from which the above named charges should be met, and that instead of having such property represented by the creation of a new public debi, the State should proceed direo ly to its alienation (Art. 10). Tuis course would fully secure payment of the charzes aluded to iv articlo 28 of the iaw of July 7, 1860, whetbor by means of gov- eramont bonds, which would be transferred to the State and converted into iiamovable property in its favor, or oy means of capiial that would be paid co us in cash, or by any otber method the covernment might adopt and tiat would be more profitable to tho int-resta of tho floancea, Art 6 of the bill provides for the case in which this class of property might be insufficient to attain the ob: ject, and proposes to you that the difference should be borne by the ecclesiastical corporations that have not been suppressed. By simplifying the modo of operation in this way, I should especialy nope (o obiain the very great advantage of relieving ourselves trom the neces- sity of burdeoing the budget by the creation of now debts (Art. 12). * As a means of rondering possible to ecclosiastical pro- perty the payment of a tax whose pecunit is of itself apparent, I believe it indispe: to the suppression of all obstacles to the alt mortmain property (Art, 4); stipulating at time that the eéclosiastical corporations not suppross:d Dy the Jaw of July 7, 1866, shall not enjoy the privilege of alionation save apon securing to the government pay- meat of that quantum of the tax not yet defrayed, as well as the payment of all they may be bound to com- plete in execution of the pro sion for the case when the ry destined to meet tho aforesaid char; should not suffice to cover them completely (Art. 7). It 18 superfluous to enlarge upon ject in order to point out that when we @ tax of six hundred millions upon the ecclesiastical patrimony, and liberate the dtate from all charges reiative to public worsuip, the peramms and the property of the clergy naturaily come under the guardianship of common law, and there is no longer @ny reason to them in submiszion to any special law to which the generality of lay citizens are not sulyected Art, 9). eae Aeeateais moet ing te arral eccles| pat iy * Id dizabuse those who have always started from the tons, Lord Londesborough; J.
