CANONISATION
PLEA FOR BRITISH UNION WITH THE VATICAN
Vatican City, May 19. The homily by His Holiness Pope Pius XI, which will be read at the Canoniantion of Sir Thomas More and Cardinal Fisher to-day, will plead with England to return to the Catholic Church, so that catholicism will become "one flock, under one shepherd." Thousands of visitors, mainly from England, have flocked to Rome for the canonisation ceremony.
Last week the first of two of the principal celebrations to mark the Canoniantion at Rome was held in England.
This was arranged, in the mały irrespective of creed, in honour of More, nót as devate or saint, buf as judge, Chancellor, statesman and author of "Utopia." The pro- moters were the members of the
Society of Our Lady of Good Coun sel, a group of Catholic King's Counsel and other lawyers who assist their needy co-religionists.
