£400,000 MISSING
PRIEST AWAITS TRIAL ROME, March 12. The chief of Rome's mobile police announced that Eduardo Prettner Cippico, former Vatican priest, will go into the Rome gaol tomorrow to await trial on charges of robbery, forgery, misappropriation of funds and traffic in foreign currency. The Associated Press correspondent says the police chief estimated that Cippico’s gain, made mostly while he was keeper of the Vatican’s secretariat of state archives, totalled about £400,000. The police also announced the arrest of Ida Gengemi, wife of the former General of the Fascist Militia, in whose home Cippico hid. The police have also implicated six others in Cippico’s dealings.
