Rome, Dec. 11.- Since the recall of Bellamy Storer from the post of ambassador to Austria many attempts have been made to induce the vatican authorities to set forth what pressure, if any, had been brought to bear on them from President Roosevelt to make Archbishop Ireland a cardinal, and today the vatican declared semi-officially it would make no statement- as President Roosevelt never asked anything through official channels. It was explained that while several Americans, who declared they spoke with President Roosevelt's authority, had attempted to influence the giving of the red hat, they did not agree on the archbishop thus to be honored. The vatican authorities do not consider that President Roosevelt was responsible for these recommendations.
