Papal Delegate "Says Encyclical Misinterp reted

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 4—Mon- signor Leopoldo Ruiz Y Flores, Papal Delegate to Mexico, today issued a statement in reply to one by President Rodriguez in connec- tion with last Friday's Papal 611a cyclical in which Pope Pius pro- tested against "persecution" of the Church in this country.

"As Mexican representative of the Holy Father," said the statement, "it is my duty to protest against the declarations of the President upon the Encyclical Acerba. Animi. of which only separate excerpts are known here, excerpts which easily could be misinterpreted.

"By virtue of an official resume of the encycllcal which I have re- ceived I state the following:

“That the said encyclical against which the President has spoken, instead of openly inciting the Mexi-

scrlbed himself as “ilolncless. joh- lcss, sick, worn out and tired of life," had climed almost to the top cf the 100-foot cable when spied by Traffic Policemen George Pork- ins and Joseph Lopiesli.

Tile two policemen siarled in pur- suit, Perkins overtaking thevvould- be suicide about six fret from the top and with Lopiestl not far be- hind. Fearful thc man would jump, Perkins engaged him in casual con- versalion.

"Have you a. cigarette?" he asked.

“No," the man roplled,_"I don't smoke."

' Other casual conversation follow- ed, and then Perkins asked, "are you hungry?"

When the mall replied that he hadn't had any food in two days, tile Patrolman holding on i0 the cable with one hand reached into his pocket and extracted all the money he had-BO cents-and handed it towards Kennedy. At the same time he got a firm grip on the mall and convinced him he ought to climb down, that he would be fed and cared for.
