Mayor Nathan and Religious Instruction

ERNEST NATHAN, the Hebrew mayor of the city of Rome, Italy, is seriously taken to task by the Catholic Mirror for having broken one of his election promises. That promise was that he would do nothing antagonistic to the interests of religion. He has now sanctioned a bill abolishing religious instruction from the public schools of Rome. As the Roman Church considers that there is but one religion, and as it was her priests who were teaching that in the public schools of that city, she brings the broken-promise charge against Mayor Nathan.
