Pope Benedict yesterday issued the following, urging the rulers of Europe to end the war: In the holy name of God, our Heavenly Father, and the Lord Jesus, whose blood was given as the price for human salvation, we beseech you whom Divine Providence has placed at the head of the belligerent nations to end the bloody carnage which for a year has dishonored Europe. Brotherly blood is shed on land and sea. The most beautiful regions of Europe, this garden of the world, are strewn with dead and ruins. Where once smiled factories and vineyards and fruitful yards are now only the frightful guns of war pouring forth their ruin and death. 1 The abundant wealth wherewith our Creator endowed these lands enables you to continue the war, but at what a price! Thousand of young lives are being snuffed out dally. Shall the ruins of so many cities and villages and monu ments erected by genius in commemor ation 6f the faith of our forefathers answer the bitter tears shed within the privacy of home or at the foot of altars? No, that cannot be. The price of the struggle Is too high. On the sad annlverary of the out break of this tremendous conflagration an ardent plea arises from our hearts for a sudden cessation of hostilities. The longer we cry for peace, the more loudly may this cry reach the people of neutral countries ond their rulers, Inducing them to higher councils. Why should not the rulers of the warring Powers hegln now to exchange views with the Idea of ending the con flict? Blessed is he who shall first raise the olive brancH. Tou are assuming before God and man tremendous reponsiblllty. O, you warriors, heed our prayer! Hark to the paternal voice of the Vicar of the Eternal and Supreme Judge be fore whom all shall be called to ac count. BENEDICT XV. P. M.
