PAPER ON
LABOR
Copies Have Just Been Received
From the Pope.
Gives Good Advice to Catholics the
World Over-The Churoh's
Attitude.
AN IMPORTANT DOCUMEN

Washington, Jan. 12-Ofioisl in
struction from Pope Pius. second only
in Catholic Importance to Pope Leo's
famous encyclical on labor. in point
ing out the attitude of the church of
Rome toward the relative duties of
capital and labor, has been received
here by apostolic representatives. 1t
is headed with the words "Morto Pro-
prio," to show that it expresses only
the pope's personal views, and reduces
the various Roman Catholic teachings
on the subject of property rights and
especially the philosophy of Pope
Leo's encyclical on labor, to nineteen
precepts.
The first four specify that society is
composed of unequal elements, whose
only equality is in their redemption
by the Christ and their equal individ-
ual responsibility to God. The fifth
precept states that 1.-THE right Of pro-
perty, the fruit of labor, or industry
or OF cession or donation by others, is
IN incontrovertible natural right, and
everybody can dispose reasonably Of
such property as he thinks fit"
From the sixth to the fifteenth pre-
Dept the pope draws distinction be-
tween Justice and charity rs they ap-
ply between employer and employee.
These are summed up as follows:
"The following are obligations of
Justice bending on the proletariat and
the workingmaD: To perform fully
and faithfully the work which has
been freely and, according to equity,
agreed upon not to injure the proper
~ or outrage the persons of masters
to abstain from acts of violence, even
in the defense of their known rights, |
and never make wutiny of their de- |
Tense.
"For the capitalist the obligations
are: To pay just wages to their work
ingmen; not to injure their just saw
ines by violence or fraud or by overt
or covert usuries; not TO expose them
to corrupting seductions and danger. of |
scandal; not TO ALLEVIATE them from
the spirit of family life, and from lack
of economy not to impose upon them |
labor beyond their strength or insult
able for their age or sex"
Other obligations are characterized |
as Charitable, and the rich are ex-
horted to the exercise of this virtue. |
The instruction contains this ferveDt |
sdiuonition to Catholic writers: |
when defending the cause of the
proletariat and the poor, not to use
language calculated to inspire aver
sion among the people for other class
es of society. Let them refrain from
speaking of redress and justice when
the matter comes within the domain
of charity only"
The document closes with this or
der: "These fundamental rules are
to be transmitted to Sll Catholic COM
mittees, societies and unions of every
kind All these societies are to keep
them exposed in their rooms and have
them read frequently at their meet
ings. We ordain. moreover, that
Catholic papers publish them in their
entirety and make declaration of their
Observance of them, and, in fact, OBJ
serve them religiously. Failing to do
this. they are to be gravely admon.
ished, and, if they do not then amend |
let them be interdicted by ecclesiasti. |

Frankfort. KY, Jan. 12-Republi-
can leaders in the house and senate
will advocate a capitol appropriation
bill for Frankfort, and as there seems
to be no split between the administra-
ton forces and the anti decentralization
Democrats upon the capitol question,
the prospects for an appropriation
seem brighter now than they have
ever been.
DR.. william Carson Black. Of Bar
bourville, ana former Lieutenant Gov
ernor worthington, Of Greenup, Re-
publican leaders in the house, will be
put on the capitol committee and will
work for an appropriation. Both have
expressed the view that Frankfort
should have the new buildings, as the
location question has long since been
settled. DR.. Black, when mayor of
Barbourville, was popular with politi-
clans of both parties, and during his
term an electric light plant, macsdam
streets and sidewalks were added to
the improvements of Bsrbourville. He
says that he considers the old state
buildings a disgrace to Kentucky, and
is heartily in favor Of an appropriation
sufficient to construct buildings which
will be credible to the wealth and pro-
gress of the state.
Republicans in the senate will also
favor an appropriation.
