The Europeans quit because of financial difficulties with Jimmy Proscia, who is staging the affair. In doing so, they cut themselves out of all Amercan six-day bike racing for good. The National Cycling Association, which controls the professional sport in the United States and which sanctioned the local = meet, will bar all the men who quit, offi- cials said. Commented Italian Franco Geor- getti, disillusioned dean of the world's riders. "Bike-racing days in America are gone. The future of the sport here in the U.S. is as black as possible. It looks as though South America is the only place to go now." The former millionaire, who has been racing for more than 30 years, added: "This was my last race. I'm going to Milan and open a bicycle shop." The riders told The ' Associated Press they had received only $18 apiece for three days work. They had been guaranteed $66 a day, The cycling circus which started last Sunday now has five teams still whirling around the pine saucer. Vatican Paper Presents Views On World Peace By HENRY BUCKLEY Rome -- (Reuters) -- The Vati- can ig apparently not happy about the present temporal relations of the Roman Catholic Church with the great powers of the world. Indications of this unasiness have appeared recently in editorials pub- lished in the Vatican newspaper, Osservatore Romano, and the Rome Quitidiano, the organ of Catholic Action in Italy, : Count Giuseppe Della Torre, edi- tor-in-chief of Osservatore Romano, in an. editorial emphasized the peaceful mission of the church in the world and declared that the fact she is above purely world anxieties gives added value to that mission. An earlier editorial in the same newspaper indicated that the Vati- can does not exclude the possibility of restoring diplomatic relations with the U.S.S.R. if" Russia should be willing to accept certain condi- tions. Then the editor-in-chief of Quiti- diano, Federico' Alessandrini, a man who is in a position to know very exactly the trends of Vatican policy, expressed the opinion that "Britain and the United States are 'wrong to refuse new four-power talks on Berlin." ; After the visit of United. States Secretary of State George OC. Mar- shall to Pope Pius at Castel Gan- dolfo in October, Vatican cireles did not hesitate to say that they thought that His Holiness had undoubtedly made it clear that he would loath to see Italy. incorporated into 'an anti-Soviet' bloc. Some Rome observers are now trying to deduce some positive con- clusion from these persistent point- ers concerning a new slant to Vati- can foreign policy which, up to sev- eral months ago, had been directly and consistently hostile to Soviet Russia. The recent social week at Milan, at which the leading Italian Catho- lic thinkers on social questions spoke, resulted in a demand for the establishment of a new internation- al body to lead the world to peace. The form of this body was left vague; but its keynote was to be its high spiritual plane and its ac- ceptance of the fundamentals of Christianity. It does seem likely that the Vati- can has in mind an attempt to create some kind of "an adequate political and juridical organization of the international community." The nations or forces which might eventually collaborate with the Roman Catholic church in the es- tablishment of such a body were not named. ' Another trend appears to reflect a strong desire on the part of the Vatican to enter into closer rela- tions with. _:itain as regards the attempt to preserve peace and to reduce the present confusion in Europe. : In spite of the large numbers of Catholics in the "New World" across the Atlantic, Europe is still the heart of Catholicism, and it is ob- vious that the Vatican's interest is keen in every effort to solve the present chaotic situation, which affects the Catholic ehurch at gravely as it does the other forces involved in Kurope's daily life, There seems little doubt that the Vatican considers that the great forces which it can bring into play if need be to help particularly in the moral and spiritual side of Eu- ropean reconstruction, are not being used as they might be.
