Absolute
Autonomy
Of

Condemned
By
Pope
Pius
In
First
Encyclical
Of
Reign
CASTEL
GANL0LF0.
October
27:
(CP)
Pope
Pius
today
condemned
governments
which
assume
"that
absolute
autonomy
which
belongs
to
the
Supreme
Maker"
and
offered
consolation
to
dismembered
Poland.
In
the
first
encyclical
of
his
reign,
the
Pontiff,
after
recounting
the
failure
of
his
efforts
for
peace,
also
pleaded
for
a
settlement
at
the
end
of
this
war
which
would
avoid
the
errors
'of
past
treaties
which
had
failed
to
bring
lasting
peace.
The
Pope
blamed
denial
of
"the
authority
of
God
and
the
sway
of
His
law"
for
the
rise
of
governments
which
make
the
state
"the
last
end
of
life."
