"Let the Americans have what they want" said Pope Benedict XV - the first Pope on film!

Reader John writes in:
I was browsing through some old newspaper archives today and saw this article, which I thought you'd enjoy, vaguely related to the theme of the Papal Picture of the Day. It's an AP story and so was run widely. This copy is from the Decatur Illinois DailyReview, August 30, 1920.

Thanks John - good find!
