Pius X a Saint?

Miss Agnes Regan, Executive Secretary of the National Council of Catholic Women, has received the following letter from Cardinal Merry del Val, in regard to the resolution adopted by the Council, advocating the cause of the Beatification of Pope Pius X.:

Rome, Dec. 22, 1923.

The Secretary of the National Council of Catholic Women, 1312 Massachusetts Ave.,

Washington, D. C.

Dear Madame:

I am in receipt of the beautifully illuminated copy of the Resolution passed by the National Council of Catholic Women in the United States of America advocating the Cause of Beatification of the great and holy Pontiff Pius X. I am informed that you have addressed it to the Holy Father, as was suitable, but I am deeply grateful for your thought of me in this connection.

Let us hope that God will be pleased to exalt and glorify the virtue of one of the most beloved successors of Saint Peter.

With kindest regards I beg to remain,

Yours devotedly in Christ,

(Signed) R. CARD. MERRY DEL VAL.
