To Rescue CHICAGO italians.


A plan to rescue the Italians from
the crowded tenement districts of Chi
cago has been formulated by Arch
bishop Quisley. He hopes to be able

and newstands, by which the children
of these districts earn a livelihood, and
go to the outlying districts to enjoy
freer life as gardeners, flower growers
and dairy farmers He considers this
the best method TO solve the present
social conditions which have been puz-
Zling students of sociology for some
years in that city. To accomplish this
project Archbishop Quigley has just
issued an order increasing the Italian
parishes of the city from four to eight.
He has laid out the boundary lines of
the new parishes so as to encourage
the Italians to move into the mora
open districts. Pastors have been APP
pointed over the districts, and three Of
these pastors have been brought by the
archbishop direct from Italy. A few
years ago all the Italian Catholics of
Chicago were under the care of the
Servite fathers. on the north side. and
it was no unusual thing on a feast day
or Sunday to meet men and women OF
that flock at the north side church who
had walked to services from Engle-
wood. But most of the Catholics re-
sided along the river districts on the
three sides of the city. Two new
churches were established on the south
side and one on the west, within the
past few years, and the Italians began

was Pope Leo's idea, and his instuc
lions to Mgr. Guidi were that two
thirds of the money received from the
sale of the friars' lands in the Philip
pines should remain in the archipelago
and be used for the strengthening OF
the church there and for educational
purposes. The other third was to 50
to the orders owning the land. To this
plan there is said TO have been objec-
tons ON the part of the friars them

this proportion should go to their or
ders. which they claim. are the actual
owners of the lands. The attitude that
Pope Plus X will take in regard to this
