MAX PAM
Pounds Scholarship FOR
Study of Social
Sciences.

DIR. Max Pam, the noted Jewish
American jurist, in a letter to Car
dinal Gibbons and the Board OF
Trustees of the Catholic University
~ef america, founding therein FIVE
scholarships for the study of the so
ciai sciences, pays noble tribute 20
the Catholic church as the great
conservative force in our modern
life. In setting forth his reasons for
the benefactions, DR.. Pam says:
Every European country today is
face to face with grave economic
problems. Our turn is coming; in
fact, it is a grave question II 1t be
not already here. We hear advanced,
from time to time, new and strange
theories of government. There are
some who claim, even at the present
hour, that the constitution has out
lived its usefulness. In spite of as
sertions to the contrary, l am
strongly convinced that the spirit of
our people is sane, conservative and
Just. There is plenty OF respect for
law and order, consideration for the
rights of others and a general reali-
cation that he millennium promised
by political Missionaries will not ar
rive in a week or year. The people
at bottom are right, but they need
wise and honest leadership. To avert
this latter danger we must have men
who are qualified by training and
integrity to meet and oppose 1t
whenever and wherever 1t appears.
II is my conviction that il is the
people themselves who must supply
this leadership. In my humble way
want to help talented young men
to fit and qualify themselves for this
work and therefore it is with great
pleasure that i am, with your con-
sent, establishing these five scholar
ships with the understanding that
the young men who will be chosen
for these scholarships will make a
special study of social and economic
problems. These problems, as /
conceive It, will center round mans
relation TO man, mans relation to
government, and mans relation to
property. The Catholic church holds
to the traditions of the past; 1t is
conservative; IL stands for author
ity, for government, for the rights OF
the individual and for the rights OF
property, and these to my mind are
the chief elements that enter into
individual and national happiness; II
has the largest number OF COM
municants of any religious institu-
ton in the country; II has the oppor-
tunity OF moulding character, devel-
oping the intelligence and creating
proper sense of the duties and
responsibilities Of citizenship. not
only amongst those who are citizens
at the present moment. but amongst
the millions who will come from
othor lands, seeking better opportu-
mites and more favorable conditions
OF life"

WILL MOVE.
New Home For the Sisters
of the Good Shep-
herd.

The Convent Of the Good Shep-
herd, after more than seventy years
Of useful existence at Eighth and
Madison streets, will in the near
future move out beyond the. city
limits. The Sisters of the Good
Shepherd have purchased a tract OF
land at Newburg road and Ropewalk
lane, containing fifteen acres, on
which il is proposed to erect an in
stitution similar to that now con-
Quoted by them at Eighth and Mad
lson streets. The property, which
was purchased for a consideration
of SIS, 900, belonged to the estate of
the late Judge John w. Barr. For
the past seventy years or more the
Convent of the Good Shepherd has
been maintained as a charitable
branch of the Catholic church. The
three buildings fronting on Walnut
street and the larger building 'front.'
ing on Eighth, and extending along
Madison street, are said to be made
quate now to accommodate the
steady increase in the number or
those who apply for homes. The
property purchased is admirably To-
Gated to suit the purposes for which
1t was acquired, being elevated above
the city and possessing both city and
country advantages. While no def
mite plans have been determined
upon as to the buildings it is pro-
posed to erect, It is understood work
will begin within a few months. The

Catholic knights Planning
For Three Big
Events.

The next two months will be a
busy season for the Central Commit
tee and Catholic knights of America.
At an enthusiastic meeting held at
St. Mary's hall, with President John
Schalda occupying the chair, the
Central Committee decided that the
Catholic Knights would take a part
in the coming national convention of
the American Federation of Catholic
Societies that would be a pleasing
surprise to their supreme officers
and representatives. Gen. Michael
Reichert submitted a beautiful de-
sign for a float, which was accepted.
Col. Joe McGinn was instructed to
select the children who will accom-
pany it, and State Secretary William
T. Meehan will designate the
Knights who are to represent the or
der. Encouraging talks were made
by John Kinney, of Jacksonville;
Supreme Delegate Veeneman and
others, and the ladies who will as
sist in decorating the float are in
vited to meet at the McGinn res
ldence, 513 West Chestnut street, at
3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
Chairman Oscar Maier announced
that Fontaine Ferry Park had been
secured for July Is for the annual
picnic reunion, when a gold prize of
SIS would be awarded. The commit
tee, he said, would endeavor to have
some added attractions for this day,
which has always been a big one.
Messrs Charles Hill, Michael
Reichert and William M. Higgins
were appointed a special committee
to report on the advisability of an
excursion during the summer
months. Resolutions on the death
of the late John Fackler, one of the
pioneers of the order in this city,
were reported by Gen. Reichert, Sec

alism a necessity was pointed out by
President NJ. ]. Leblanc in his OPEN
ing speech at the congress. In
these days much of the work of the
labor organizations is done in the
Hobbies of Parliament, and It is alb
surd to expect that English labor
leaders will come over to Dublin to
look after the Parliamentary inter-
ests of their Irish members
The success of the few existing
unions which are purely Irish is a
strong argument in favor of the new
policy The Dublin Society of Com
positors, which is entirely free from
English domination, has not had a
strike for more than 100 years, and
It's wage scale is higher than that of
the London union.

welcome suggestions or assistance in

ampled ngrowtk. - n.ade union
preaching grant OF nome rule.
Trades unionism in ireland never
has attained the important position
that it holds in England or Scotland.
This, it is. declared by many Irish
labor leaders, is due to the fact that
the Irish labor movement has been
an appendage of the British Now all
this is to be changed Political
home rule is to be followed, or per-
haps even preceded, by trade union
home rule, and at the meeting of the
Irish Trade. Congress in Clonmel a
committee was appointed to work
out scheme for an Irish national
labor federation which shall in turn
undertake the organization of dis
tinctly Irish trade unions, organized
on a national basis, and self-support-
Ing and self-governing.
At present Irish workingmen's or
CARNATIONS are woefully ineffective.
In most of the great industrial trades
they are mere branches of the big
English organizations. The Belfast
shipyard workers, for instance, be-
long to the English Amalgamated
Society of Engineers and the English
Shipwrights' societies. The linen
workers, so far as they are organ
lied at all, are members of the
British textile workers unions. The
Irish carpenters, masons, ironwork-
ers and other tradesmen are hardly
organized at all; and when they are
they belong to a few weak branches
Of the British societies, while the
Irish railway men are members OF
the British Amalgamated Society of
Railway Servants. The result of all
this has been bad for the Irish
workers. The permanent labor Off
cials in England know nothing of
ireland. Few of them have ever
visited 1t. When there is strike
In England Irish members are called
on TO pay for the support of English
strikers, or even to strike in SYM
pathy with them, although they have
no grievance OF their own, and when
they have trouble at home they get
little help from England. Two nota-
BILE cases OF this use of Irish work
men as catspaws were the recent
British railway strike and the strike
of the ironworkers at Wexford.
When the English railway men
struck they insisted that the Irish
railway workers should come out
too. although they had no grievance,
and their strike could in no way af-
feet the English railways. When
the Englishmen patched up their
quarrel with their employers the
[rishmen were left in the lurch, and
some hundreds of them never got
their jobs back again.
The Wexford ironworkers' strike
was even a more glazing instance.
The men were organized in a branch
OF the English union which decided
to start a campaign for the closed
shop, and they were ordered out. The
Wexford employers declared that
they we're quite willing TO sign an
agreement with a union OF their own
men, but they refused to bind them
selves TO obey the dictates OF an
Englishman In Birmingham or
Sheffield. The fight lasted for a
year, and in the end the Wexford
men cut loose from the English con-
nection, organized their own union
and made a satisfactory agreement
With their employers. Another fac
