FORMER PORTUGUESE
RULER AND PILGRIMS
1 . VICTIMS OF INTRIGUE
? i
LISBON, July 28. (IP)—Former King
Manuel of Portugal recently was
made the central figure of a suppos
ed political intrigue, of which he ap
parently was innocent. The occa
sion was the pilgrimage of nearly 2,
000 Portuguese Roman Catholics, in
cluding many prelate, to Rome for
the Holy Year celebration.
Before the arrival of the pilgrims
in Rome news reached Lisbon that
the ex-king was in the Eternal City
and some one in Lisbon warned the
Italian government that the Portu
guese pilgrims had gone to Rome
with the intention of carrying out
some political maneuvers with the
ex-king at their head. This resulted
In an exchange of several telegrams
between the Italian and Portuguese
governments.
The unsuspecting pilgrims were
met at Rome with the warnings from
the police that upon the slightest
manifestation of a political nature
they would be regarded as “undesir
ables” and treated as such. Pro
tests addressed to Premier Musso
lini were met with the reply: “But
all this is due to communications
from your government.”
The ex-king was in Rome at the
time under the name of Count de
Ourem. It was explained that long
before the incident he had been in
vited by the Vatican to come to
Rome for the canonization of Saint
Teresa. However, in view of the
turn events had taken the Portuguese
pilgrims were advised not to attempt
to call upon the ex-king.
The Portuguese government ap
parently became satisfied that dan
ger of a monarchist plot had disap
peared and sent an official note to
the press, said to have been based
on statements received from the Vat
ican that “Dom Manuel de Braganza
was received without any official
honors and that the visits exchanged
between him and members of the
Vatican were merely acts of cour
tesy.
