Secretary of State, seemed to me to make this almost absolutely plain when he bade me 'give Archbishop Farley his warmest greetings.

"While I do not profess to know when the promotion of Archbishop Farley will take place, I am certain that it will be within a year from It may be even before the end of the present yean From what I gathered in the offices of the Vatican, the Idea seems to be almost, If not quite settled that Archbishop Farley will receive the cardinal's hat."
