Two items appeared among the

which seem to be correlated,

The Curran legislative investi-
eating committee of Illinois has
resumed its inquiry into the So
called charitable organizations in
Cook County and elsewhere. The
developments promise to be as
startling as those which followed
its previous efforts along this line.
One fragrant example of inefi-
cheney on the part of "profes-
sional" charity organization is
shown by the evidence placed be-
fore the committee in the case of
the Samaritan Army which has
branches throughout the country.
This organization collected $537 in
Chicago between June 16 and Oc-
tober 26 Of last year and of that
amount expended the mqnificent
sum Of $14 in charity. This fact
is of itself a sufficient comment on
the value Of such an organization

The following passage from the
second chapter of the first Epistle
of st. Peter, read at Mass on the
third Sunday after Easter, should
be kept in mind by Catholics who
find it hard to bear the criticism
heaped upon them by the mali
cious horde of bigots who empha-
size the mole-hills Of individual
imperfections into mountains OF
generalized iniquity: "That
whereas they speak against you
as evil-doers, they may, by. the
good works which they shall be-
hold in you, glorify God in the
day of visitation" This contains
a lesson to the individual Catholic
who ought to realize that, in this

is in his keeping; that his up

The story of the taking of Vera
Cruz by the American forces is
now a matter of history. The
names of the heroic dead have
been put on record. On this roll
of honor one looks in vain for
the name of a Guardian of Lib
erty," "Knight of Luther" or
a member of any other so-called
"patriotic" organization. These
doughty champions of liberty are
simply invincible when fighting
imaginary enemies in the persons
of unpatriotic American Catho-
lies; but when the blast Of real
war blows in their ears their
boosted patriotism oozes out so
rapidly that they are reduced to
their original jelly-fish stage. No
fear that any Of them will be
killed defending their country s
honor, and yet they are the kind
of patriots" that this country
can best spare.

THE PROPER COURSE FOR
CATHOLICS.

Late dispatches from Rome
bring the announcement that
Ernesto Nathan, ex-Mayor of
Rome, has been appointed Honor
airy Minister Plenipotentiary to
represent Italy at the Panama-Pa-
cific Exposition to be held in San
Francisco next year. Nathan pro-
poses to leave Italy on May IL, for
New York, whence he will go to
Washington to see President Will
son and then proceed to San Fran
cisco to begin his duties as the
official representative of the Ital-
ian Government.
AS soon as it was announced
that the Italian Government in
tended to commission Nathan to
represent it at the Panama. acific
Exposition Of 1915, a chorus of
protests was heard from all parts
of the United States, not only
from Catholics but from the better
class of non-Catholic American
citizens. These protests voiced the
sentiments of all right-thinking
Americans, irrespective of creed
or origin, who believed that Ma
than was not a fit person to repre-
sent the Italian Government on
such an occasion. During his ten
ure of office as Mayor Of Rome he
lost no opportunity to pour out
the walls of his wrath upon the
unoffending head of the Sovereign
Pontiff. He showed himself not
only an anti-Catholic bigot, but
an anti-Christian demagogue
whose vile utterances were de-
structive of every principle Of
justice and morality inculcated
by Christianity. 1t is no wonder,
then, that the Christian people Of
the United States should protest
against the appointment of such a
degenerate as representative of
any foreign nation at the Panama
Exposition.
Many Of the protests against
Nathan have counselled Catholics
to keep away entirely from the
Panama Exposition in San Fran
cisco, as a means of showing their
disapproval of his recognition by
the Exposition authorities as the
official envoy of Italy. Such a
course is impracticable and mad
visable. The Exposition COM
memorates an event of the great
est Importance not only to Amer
lea, but to the entire world, and
it would not be proper for Catho-
lies to boycott it entirely. Nor
is it necessary to do so to show
their disapproval of Italy's action.
There is another way by which
Catholics can voice their opposi-
ton in a practical way which is
not open to the objection that may
be brought to bear against the
former course. Tt should be well
understood and widely advertised
that, since Mr.. Nathan represents
the people of Italy at the forth

"Neither the faithful nor the

times people say that the Press is

bear in mind that in former times

not spread everywhere, and that,
therefore, the antidote was not so
necessary. In vain will you build

PEACE WITH HONOR.

PEACE WITH HONOR.
At the present writing it looks
as if it would not be all plain
sailing for the South American
Republics which have rendered
their services as mediators be-
tween the United States and Mex
leo. While the American Govern
ment and President Huerta have
agreed to an armstice, pending
mediation, the rebel leader, Car
rama, is not willing to sheathe
the sword in an effort to restore
peace to his disturbed country.
Owing to his belligerent attitude
the South American ENJOYS have
withdraw their invitation to him
to send personal representative
to participate in the negotiations
for peace. Carranza and his fol
lowers have practically eliminated
themselves from consideration by
refusing to agree to an armstice
with President Huerta while the
proposals for peace are being con
sidered.
It is not unlikely that Carranza
will prove the real obstacle to a
permanent peace-pact between the
United States and Mexico. His
ambition to become President OF
the Mexican Republic would, in
all probability, be thwarted by
the establishment of peace be,
tween the two nations. But
whatever be the motive, his re-
fusal to accede to the request OF
the ENJOYS endangers the success
Of their efforts at mediation.
Ii they succeed in effecting an
amicable settlement Of the diff
Guilty between the United States
and Mexico, it will be a great
blessing. It is difficult for an i'm.
partial observer to justify the
warlike relations existing be-
tween this country and our South.
ern neighbors. It is not our duty
to interfere in the internal affairs
Of Mexico. We should allow the
Mexicans to settle their own local
differences as best they may. They
would be justified in telling the
United States to mind it's own
business and let them work out
their own salvation just as this
country did during the time OF
the Civil War.
But when the United States
sought pretext for war it should
have selected a better one than
the mere firing of a salute to
atone for an unintentiOnal insult
to the Stars and Stripes and to
the dignity Of the United States
The apology rendered by those
who were responsible for the ar
rest of the Americans at Tampico
was sufficient in itself to make
amends for the insult offered by
a public servant who was merely
carrying out the instructions OF
those in authority over him. The
authorities ordered the release of
the prisoners as soon as they
realized that a mistake had been
made. The demand made by a
naval officer that President Huerta
order an official salute to the Stars
and Stripes should not have been
insisted upon by this Government

During the month of May no
day should be allowed to pass
without it's special tribute OF
prayer in honor of the Blessed
Virgin. 1t is a commendable
custom to offer to her daily at
least a portion of the rosary. In
every Catholic family the beads
should be said before retiring. No
other form Of devotion is more
prolific of graces, none that makes
a more powerful appeal to her
motherly heart.

All Are Taking Action.

The action taken to meet these evils
differs according to the countries of
Europe, but in all some steps are
being taken.
In France the officers of many
French regiments-with the assist
ance of medical men and the travelling
exhibitions-are delivering lectures
and educating the army away from
alcohol. In Germany, additionally
beer sodden, an active campaign is
going on for the mitigation of the in
fiuence, and, curiously enough, the
kaiser and the socialists have both
espoused the cause Of temperance. In
poyerty-stricken Finland, Russian
sanction has been withheld and pre-
vents the establishment of prohibi-
ton, which has been twice voted in
the Finnish assembly.
Two of the important factors in the
European situation are the travelling
anti-alcoholic exhibitions and the
rapidly increasing advocacy of the
prohibition cause by the Socialists. In
Switzerland, Sweden and Germany
several such exhibitions are main
tanned, and any number of small shop
window exhibitions displayed by bust
ness men converts. The travelling ex-
hibits have numbers of charts of in
formation and beer kegs arranged in
sizes to show alcohol consumption by
nations, with wooden columns show
ing crime in the districts, the heights
of the columns and the kegs being
startling1y near alike.
Taught in School by Stealth.
In the army charts are shown with
shooting records of alcohol drinkers
arranged opposite non drinkers.
School children are taken to see these
exhibits and, although the liquor in
terests are too solidly entrenched to
permit of actual temperance instruc-
ton in schools, yet the leaders of the
assault on the alcohol traffic secure
the teaching of temperance in novel,
Indirect and very effective ways.
Varieties of examples are assigned
with regard to the purchasing power
of the amounts spent for liquor in
various districts If the money were
used to buy food, land, etc. One
teacher in an Austrian school re-
ported that after a month of such
work, without expressing an opinion
himself or using anything but facts
indirectly in his work, the children
were SO aroused that they could
scarcely be restrained from stonirg
saloon near by. Education of the
rising generation is the main point in
the attack on the alcohol interests.
Socialists to Take Action.
And the Socialist party proposes to
take action, says Mr.. Gordon. In the
international congress of Socialists at
Vienna in 1914 the Swedish delegates
are to move the consideration of the
alcohol question and determine the
party's stand, with the indication
being that strong anti-alcohol agi-
tation within the whole Socialist
party will be begun. With the tenn
perance men of Northern Europe COM
bining for interparty action and press
ing forward the problem with fervor
into politics; with woman suffrage
looming large and, of course, dead
against alcoholism, the outlook for
the liquor interests, as Mr.. Gordon
foresees it, is that they are likely to
be pushed to wholly defensive posi-
ton within few years. And the edu-
cation of the people to recognize their
best good is going on.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1914-05-09

failure, political trickery and the
power of organized interests against
the unorganized masses, are the forth
fed positions of alcoholism now being
attacked by the leading scientists,
medical men, social idealists and edu-
Gators of Europe. And both parties
recognize that the struggle is not half
hearted and will endure until COM
plete determination is meted out to
one or the other. ut is daybreak in
Europe" says Mr.. Gordon.
Europe Apathetic at First.
One of the most striking things
that Mr.. Gordon points out is the
Anglo-American origin of the prohibit
ton movement and the first apathy
of Europe especially in the Germanic
countries. With this comes the further
realization that the actual develop
ment of anything like an effective
negative note to the progress of al
coholism comes now from these same
countries, and Anglo-American activi-
ties have dwindled to spasmodic eff
