Vatican Envoy Issue Shelved For Present . Will Leave Matter Up To U.S. Senate Washington, Oct. 24 — (UP) — President - Truman’s plan to reestablish . formal diplomatic relations with the Vatican appeared today te ; have been shelved indefinitely. The White House announced yesterday that Mr. Truman will not try to send Gen. Mark W. Clark — or anyone else — to the Holy See under 'any temporary arrangement, but will leave the whole matter up to the senate to decide' next year. Several senators have indicated' that there is little chance of Clark's nomination as America’s first ambassador to the Vatican being approved in the next | session of congress. Other congressmen predicted that the controversial nomination may not even be brought to a vote. Mcjst members were comment publicly because the issue is so touchy. Mr. Truman could have assigned Clark a$ his personal repreIng the late President Roosevelt’s sentative to the Vatican, followexample in naming Myron C. lor as his personal envoy to the Holy See. Or he could have' s6t up an interim embassy manned by a subordinate diplomat pending arrival of a full-fledged ambassador. 1 Mr. Truman apparently decided against any df these actions in view of the, stormy controversy which resulted from his nomination of Clark in the-heat of the congressional adjournment rush last Saturday. Yesterday’s White House announcement prompted fresh speculation on the question why Mr. Truman sprang the nomination during the adjournment rush.
