To Elevate ‘Consistory

VATICAN CITY, Dec- 15. — Joy and sorrow are likely to lntermingle in Pope Plus’ allocation to the Col- lege of Cardinals tomorrow.

Prelates believe the Holy Father will express his satisfaction with such recent religious manifestations

Buenoe Aires and Cleveland, and his discontent with "siegesv against spirituality elsewhere.

The Cardinals will meet their sovereign in a secret consistory. Ha will elevate the 20 prelates whose names wore announced recently, bringing the College to 89. one less than the total prescribed by Canon Law. ‘rho conslstorv probably will con- firm, or preconize, uppolntmentsmf archblshops and bishops named since the last ecnsistory.

The public consistory-ons of the mostlmprsssive ceremonies cf the Roman Catholic rite-will bo Thurs- dav. Then the Pope will confer the red hat upon the new cardinals. None of the new cardinals will at- tend tcmorrowk oonsistory. They will await outside Vatican City the arrival of Papa‘ messengers with tidings of their elevation.
