45 Cardinals Hold , Funeral Mass for Pius in St. Peter's

Conclave of Prelates to Elect New Pontiff Opens February 28 By the Associated Press. VATICAN CITY, Feb. 18.—Forty- five cardinals wearing violet capes bordered in ermine and violet in mourning for Pope Pius XI had their first funeral mass for him today while awaiting the arrival of foreign princes of the church to elect a new pontiff. The service was the seventh of nine daily requiem masses being sung for the Pope. The cardinals had remained away from the first six services, as is their custom, but SAVE they departed from tradition by having their service not in Sistine Chapel, but in St. Peter’s basilica. Vatican authorities announced that the conclave of cardinals to i. elect a papal successor would open on the evening of February 28, with 10* the voting to the next 50* begin day. Two U. S.
