Pope Leo on Socialism

Pope Leo's encyclical on socialism
explains his former utterances on this
subject. 1t maintains the opposition
of the Vatican to the idea of socialism
in the sense of communism. The pope
draws a distinction between socialism
and what he calls Christian democ-
racy. Socialism concerns itself solely
with material possessions and seeks
to establish perfect equality Of wealth
and a common holding Of goods. The
Pope sets the stamp of his disapproval
upon this idea and the whole system
of which it is the center. On the other
hand, Christian democracy continues
to receive his support. 1t is. he con-
cludes, a system that starts with a
recognition of divine law and seeks to
improve social conditions through in
dividual efforts.-Chicago Tribune.

NEW STYLE OF LIFEBOAT.
Invention of Charles Mayo Launched at
South Chicago.

Invention of Charles Mayo Launched at
South Chicago.
A new form of lifeboat, which it is
believed will result in the saving of
many lives at sea, was launched at l
o'clock this afternoon from the yards
of the Cuthbert Boat Building com
pany, Ninety-second street and the
Calumet river. 1t is the invention Of
Charles Mayo, formerly of the British
navy, and employed in the Cuthbert
yard. The lifeboat is constructed in the
shape of barrel, being about twenty
feet long and composed of two cylin-
ders, one inside of the other. The
width is the same as an ordinary life
boat, and the capacity of the craft is
given as fifty persons. The space be-
tween the two shells will be filled with
compressed air, to supply the occu-
pants when the matches are battened
down in a heavy sea. The inner shell
is pivoted at the ends and weighted at
the bottom, so that it will maintain an
upright position, no matter how heavy
the sea. This will prevent the occu-
pants from being injured by being
thrown about the inside through the
tossing of the waves. The outer shell is
made of sheet iron, in much the same
way that metallic lifeboats are built.
The inner shell is Of aluminium, with
aluminium matches, which
will close instantly when one
enters the boat. In its pres
ent form the boat is intended |
for use as lifeboat on vessels, but it |
is believed that improvements can be
made on it so that it will be available
for use by life saving crews. Each
boat will weigh about 5000 pounds and
can be carried on davits like an ordi-
nary lifeboat and lowered to the water
