The conflict of nearly fifty-nine years' duration between the Holy Sen and the Italian Govern- ment has finally been settled. The agreement, creating the new Papal State, was signed by Pre- mier Mussolini, above, and Cardinal Gasparri, Papal Legate, at the Latern Palace. The Pope will Have temporal power over this new "Vatican City" but the collection of customs and tariffs will be left to the Italian Government: He will be privileged to coin money, issue banknotes, print post- age stamps and exercise other official prerogatives. The Embassies and legations credited to the Vatican and a railway station will be included. In consideration of the Pope's renunciation of any important enlargement in his territory, St. Peter's Square, shown above, is the only addition, the Italian Government authorised an increase in. amount of the indemnity paid to the Holy See to $105,000.
