AT CARROLL INSTITUTE
THIRTY-FoURTH ANNUAL FUNC-
TON MONDAY NIGHT.

The thirty-fOurth annual dinner of the
Carroll Institute was held Monday night in
the lecture room of the institute building
on 10th street northwest near New York
avenue. The hall was decorated with Ameri-
can flags, entwined with festoons of white
and gold, the colors of the institute. About
15O members of the institute and guests
participated, James F. Shea. acting as
toastmaster. introduced the speakers.
Rev. Francis T. Mccarthy, the first
speaker of the evening, reviewed the excel
lent work being done by Carroll Institute
along educational lines. John c. Mona
CHAN gave an interesting talk on Italy, and
he was followed by Senator Albert ]. Bev-
eridge, who spoke of the troubles between
church and state in France.
In discussing the controversy between
the French government and the Vatican,
Senator Beveridge said, in part:
With the purely governmental contro-
versy between any nation and its citizens
or subjects we americans, as nation, have
nothing to do. On such questions we Ameri-
cans as individuals may have our personal
opinion, but not an official opinion. But
when any government on earth grounds its
policy In attack on religion itself, then
1t Is time for all men who believe in the
Gospel to speak out in protest For such
an attack is the beginning of movement
against all religion and its end is to de-
throne the Savior of the world as the
Sovereign of the spiritual and moral en-
pire OF mankind. 1t affects all churches
equally.
Il wonder if men who talk SO boldly Of
exterminating our faith understand what
would happen If that faith were dethrcned.
How long do you suppose the republics
would last If all the churches were turned
into factories and all the preachers and
prlests-ministers of the same Gospel
ceased forever their holy vocation? How
fntx ifeo1f
have rebelled against the intolerance Of
dogma; men should no less rebel against
the Intolerance of politics. Men have re-
sisted intolerance of the church, both Pro-
testant and Catholic; men should no less
resist the intolerance of the state whether
republican or monarchial."
Other features of the program included
vocal solos by Charles E. Meyers and Dana
Holland and songs by the Apollo Quartet
