ORAIOND BEACH, Fla April 3 John D. Rockefeller colebrated his leave taking1 here today by walloping his life long friend, General Adelbert Ames, 7 up, In eight holes of golf. Sendin? the venerable Civil War veteran to the showers under a succession of the best shots ho had made this season, Rockefeller said cheerily: "Vou should do better next year." The general was far off his game and the best ho could do was to halve one hole with the oil magnate. On. during his game, the magnate topped his ball, but he was not displeased with the shot.

"This go'lf game is just liko life," he said. "Vou have the good and tlio bad all mingled together." VATICAN CLIPS Wl IfUU OF THE ROTA COURT Transfers Many Marriage Cases to Holy Office; Nullity Pleas Hampered ROME, April 3. The decision of Rope Pius XI, to transfer the jurisdiction, in certain cases of marriage nullification, from the Tribunal of the Holy Rota to the Congregation of the Holy Office, introduces a most important change in me auniiiuana tlon of ecclesiastical law and divests one ot the oiuest, nui um court in the world of some of its p(, wers. The pope has caused to he emanated, through the agency of the Congregation of the Holy unice, a ii.iTw which declares that in matri monial cases non Catholics, whether baptized or not, cannot act as plaintiffs before the. Holy Rota save under exceptional circumstances to be decided upon case by case by the Holy Rota.

Cuts Rota's Power Further, all matrimonial cases which are concerned directly or indirectly with mixed marriages that is, marriages between Catholics and pon Catholics must be heard before the Congregation of the Holy Office. This important decision deprives the Tribunal of the Rota ot a considerable share of its jurisdiction, which, especially during the last few years, has been frequently invoked io declare null and void, several marriages between Catholics and non Catliollcs. The well known cases of the Duke of Marlborough and Con stielo Vanderbilt, Senator Marconi and Miss and more recently the Tooplita Porro case are instances in point. Wealth Too Important The decision of the Holy See to render more difficult the possibility of obtaining declarations of nullity of marriage between Catholics and non Catholics from acting as plaintiffs and pa sing th i jurisdiction to a higher court than the. Holy Rota, is in itself a confirmation of the frequent protests that have been raised against the abuses present in th system.

The non Catholic world has declared, more or less openly, that while the Vatican does not recognize divorce, it permits the dissolution of iiKirriago not only between its own believers but also between Catholics and non Catholics. Added to this the fact that the method for dissolving marriage is costly and practically only available to the rich, the elements for scandal are not lacking. In fact, it is generally admitted in ley circles in Rome that in some of the recent "causes celebres" tried before the Rota the wealthy station of the applicants played altosether too important, a part.

A small crowd of spectators gathered on the course to see Rockefeller play the last game of the winter season, and after the game he bade them good bye, dispensing several of his famous dimes. A Negro attendant of the course stood off to the side, cap in hand, anxiously eysing the magnate.

Before taking a late afternoon train for l'ocantico Hills, N. Rockefeller said lie expected to return to Ormond earlier than usual next year and would try to jsomo down on or before November 15. nnnrc Hive a dado OHIOfHrw 0 MISQUOTED REBUKE Catholic Center Party and Mussolini Remarks Not Political, Says Vatican ROME, April 3 The address of Pope Pius on March 2G was wrongly interpreted by the National Catholic Center party and the press, says the Observatore Romano, the official Vatican organ, today.

The pope, taking the Catholic Center party to task for failure to pay due homage to the pontiff on the occasion of its convention in Rome, also expressed grief at what he termed "a complete plan leading to a veritable monopoly of juvenile education," by the Fascist government. The pope's pronouncement, Observatore Romano asserts, "was confined solely to a moral plane, and was in nowise politically inspired, and did not constitute intervention In the state's affairs, as a critical press printed." Tiie pope's rebuke to the Center party for allusion to a possible settlement of tho "Roman question" is explained by the Observatore Romano, which says that tho essentially religious and extremely delicate nature of that problem and of the relations between the church and the state "has always imposed with regard to any declarations of political organizations of Catholics tho most absolute reserve and the most precise definition of responsibility, in order that nobody within Italy or outside could ever confound tho opinions and aspirations of a party and a political group with the inner thought of tho Holy See. "Nor did the pontiff despise," says the Observatore Romano, "the just liberty conceded to Catholics as citizens in the way of purely political activity." (Continued from Page One) ment, to which Br.
