LOUIS, May 19.—The National | | Editorial Association held its final ses- | sion this afternoon. The forenoon was devoted to addresses and the afternoon to election of officers and the comple- tion of routine business. | Colonel Henry Watterson of Louis- ville, on ““The Editorial Page,” said, in part: | The editorial page is valuable in the degree | that it aids the reader to digest the news.

The editorial page thus concelved and exe- | cuted, thua inspired and partitioned, could not fail to impress itself upon the thought of the time, at once a power and a feature, an arm of the service and a commercial asset.

As the version of the protest forwarded to the governments having relations with the Vatican differ from that forwarded to the French Govern- ment, it was decided to first ascertain definitely what representations the Vatican made to the foreign govern- ments. The Council also agreed on the steps to be taken when the exact char- acter of the protest is ascertained. The recall of Nisard, the Embassador of France to the Vatican, has been de- cided uvon, if the authenticity of the protest forwarded to the foreign pow- ers is established. This practically as- sures the Embassador’s recall, as little or no doubt exists relative to the pro- test. It is stated im official circles that the recall of M. Nisard does not mean the complete severance of diplomatic rela- tions with the Vatican, but the in- definite suspension of M. Nisard's ser- vice. Besides an Embassador, France a Minister at the Vatican, Count de hi Navenne, who will continue to carry out formal business. Following the Council of Ministers, Foreign Minister Delcasse telegraphed to M. Nisard, asking for full detalls of the protest sent by the Pope to the foreign powers. It is expected that the answer will permit final action to be taken on his recall within a day or two.
