AN AUTHORITATIVE STATEMENT OF ARCHBISHOP
WILLIAMS RECENT UrrERANCgS
An official statement has been made concern

Hams. or the New England diocese made at
recent meeting of the Catholic clergy OF Boston
Win regard TO Catholic schools. The Arch
plsnop urged mat whenever practical Catholic
and, as far as possible made equal 10 public
schools. They are regarded as practicable where
Their eSsaol isini1e and support would not
impose too grfeyouS a burden on the Resources,
OF the faithful, and in the absence OF suitable
Catholic schools parents who send their children
TO the public schools rather than to allow them
TO grow up illiterate should make it matter OF
conscience to take due precautions against the
dangers of such schools, and attend diligently
the Christian doctrine oat Of schools hours In
this connection the Archbishop read from the
instructions sent to bishops OF the United
states through the Roman Propaganda In q
document dated November %, 1875 and printed
In some papers in this country soon after its
reception, considering the document In ques-
Eoh ana with reference TO circumstances where
Sathollc parents may, with safe couScien -
send their children TO public schools. where Uhe
danger being made remote) sufficient cause eN-
ISIS. such cause would commonly exist whore
there Is no Catholic school at hand or where
that which Is accessible is little suited TO eiu-
cate the children properly or suitably to their
conditlon In life The archbishop said: '.In case
OF decided and persistent difference OF opIn-
ion arising between the pastor and parents AS
to the sufliciency alleged, the matter must be
referred to the decision OF the bishop, whose
decision will govern the conduct of both pastor
and parents who. for good and sufficient rea-
sons, omit to send their children to parochial
schools, but otherwise secure for them efficient
religious instruction, may, II well disposed, be
admitted TO Sacraments. No priest has the
right, save In the rare and exceptional case Of
public scandalouS sinners, TO publicly refuse
any OF the SacramentS OF the church to any
Catholic reasonably applying for the same.
Accommodation as also public denunciation
OF individuals, or designated classes, is strictly
