have no intention of attempting
any defense, of the Catholic church
or any other church. In the first
place l am not interested, and in the
second l don't know enough about
that church. Besides that, it is pow
erful enough to take care of itself.
My interest is in keeping workers
together for their well-being as my
brothers, without regard to how or
where they worship God. .r
To me there is no. difference be-
tween my brother who is Catholic
and my other brother who is Guar
dian of Liberty. l know the great
mass of both Catholics and Guar
dams of Liberty are sincere and
honest in their beliefs, and it is not
for me to determine which is right.
Anyhow, don't know which is right.
This, however, do know know
that since the election in Toledo last
fall, organized labor is in worse posi-
ton there than it has been for many
years. ..- .,. ..
l also know that the present ad-
ministration is now negotiating with
the street railway company for 25-
year franchise, and there is the pos
sibility that the long fight for NUM-
cipal ownership started by Golden
Rule Jones and kept up by Brand
Whitlock and others may be lost be-
cause of the division of the ranks of
labor in Toledo by the religious con-
troversy.
AS the Toledo situation may be
much discussed and may have
bearing elsewhere in the future, it
may be interesting to throw more
light on that situation.
And whatever our beliefs may be,
certainly we want the truth.

paign did the Catholic politicians
