RECOMMENDS THAT ENGAGE.
MENTS BE MADE IN WRIT
ING

Pittsburg. Pa, Feb 1S.-Catho-
lies are to-day discussing a letter
made public by Bishop J. II. Regis
Canevan in which race suicide, poly
gamy, divorce and other phases of
married life existing to-day are con-
demned. The letter is to one of the
priests of this diocese, but is taken
as one of the most important church
utterances that has been made here.
Marriages between Catholics and
non-Catholics are condemned, the
bishop declaring they lead TO the
weakening of the church as well as
strife in the family.
The bishop recommends early mar
riage. Taking up the question of
children, Bishop Canevan discusses
at length the duty of husband and
wife, and declares that when chill
dren are not brought into the world
the family lis reduced TO an un-
natural and unchristian level"
1t is also recommended that all
betrothals be made in writing. the
bishop declaring the church does not
recognize mere private and informal
engagements.
