PLAN MEMORIAL
FOR ARCHBISHOP
Holy Name Societies of PhiIa-
deIphia Establish Fund to
Perpetuate Name of the
Late Most Rev. Pat
rick John Ryan.

~ LREADY steps have been taken to-
VI ward the realization of a perma-
~ nent memorial to the life and
works of the late Archbishop Patrick
John Ryan of the archdiocese of Phila-
delphia One of the first concrete steps
was the pledging of $1,000 to fund for
the erection of a statue fthe late prel-
ate along the Parkway, as a tribute
from the Holy Name societies, of which
there are forty in Philadelphia alone
Another suggestion made was that a
fund open to subscription from the pub
lie be instituted, to be applied to the
building of new dome to the Cathedral
of IS. Peter and Paul, in which Arch
bishop Ryan made so many of his dis
courses This would be in connection
with the proposed Parkway improve
ments.
A third form of the proposed tribute is
the erection of a great home for children.
His life was largely spent in arranging
for the care of the various orphans and
homeless children that came under the
care of the Catholic Church, and in each
of the institutions for children in Phila-
delphia he was familiar visitor and fast
friend of all the tiny inmates.
The choosing of the successor to Arch
bishop Ryan is causing profound inter-
est in Philadelphia Within the next
three weeks the irremovable rectors of
the city will meet and select three men
whom they think worthy of the office.
The suffragan bishops in the archdiocese
of Philadelphia will a short time later
name the three they consider worthy
These names will then be forwarded to
the consistorial congregation at Rome,
of which Pope Plus Y is the project.
Their choice may then be approved, or
as in the case of Archbishop Ryan, whose
name was not on the list OF names OF
probable successors to Archbishop Wood,
an archbishop or bishop from some other
part of the world may be selected to car
ry on the work.
