Unemployment
Problem to Be
Met i'm Newark
DR.. Dawson, for the Minister'S
Association, Makes an APP
peal for Sufferers.

The following communication has
been received from the pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church.:
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
I am desired by the executive OF
the Minister'S Association of this city
to lay before your readers certain
facts concerning the problem of un-
employment.
There can be no doubt that there
is a great amount of unemployment
in Newark. How large this is it APP
pears difficult to ascertain, but from
the Bureau of Associated Charities I
have received the following facts:
THE bureau has upon its list for
relief 140 married men, and further
states that there are four or five
hundred other families which are only
saved from extreme need by the fact
that son, daughter or other mem
Der of the family is still employed.
The bureau has been able to provide
SO men with temporary work for
three days week at the rate of S1.50
per day. 1t has secured steady work
for 10, and been able to employ 90
others for periods of two weeks at So
per day. This is ali that the bureau
has been able to do with the funds
at its command, and these funds are
now exhausted"
In accordance with a resolution
unanimously adopted by the execu-
tive of the Ministers Association a
letter has been sent to every minister
requesting them to lay these facts
before their churches and invite con-,
tributions either privately or by pub
lie collections. The churches are now
responding to this appeal. The min
listers recognize that 1t is their duty
to do their utmost to relieve the dis
tress which prevails, and their at
titude to the unemployed is intensely
sympathetic.
This is, however, q question that
goes far beyond the churches. 1t con-
Germs the whole community. 1t
should be remembered that in this
city we have had none of the dis
turbances reported in New York and
otner cities, caused by unemployment
The unhappy sufferers from scarcity
of employment have been singularlv
patient and restrained. All the more
should the entire community rally to
their help. And this is the object of
this letter-to appeal to all good Cit
liens to do their part in the work of
| relief.
While the chursh,ssss earnestly
seeking to do their part il Is obvious
mat there are many people who are.

For the third of his series of SER
mons on timely topics, Rev. John H.
cRourke, S. j., formerly president
of the Brooklyn College, preached in
the Church of ST. Mary Star of the
Sea. Far Rockaway, on THE Neces-
sity of Religious Education" He
said:
IF the child is not trained to be-
come an intelligent citizen and law
maker, he will be q law breaker in
the near future. If respect for law
and authority is not inculcated, and
motives insisted upon which will
strengthen this reverence for law
erd authority, then we can look for
rebellion and anarchy at no distant
day.
THE irresponsible boy today play
ing in the streets, upon whose shoQ-
dcrS rests the burden, will be in a
few years the man upon whom Will
rest the greatest responsibility, the
most momentous duties, the most
weighty obligations; therefore, the
Importance of training him SO that
when he had reached the years OF
manhood he may realize the tmpor-
tant part he has to play toward his
Gcd, his country and his fellow men.
Virtues Demand Cultivation.
children will not grow spontane-
ously into law-abiding citizens. Kew
erence for law, obedience to author
ity. honesty, purity. respect for the
rights of others, do not spring up IN
human lives ike mushrooms in field
overnight. These virtues need care
full planting, constant cultivation.
Only weeds grow without planting
and cultivation. The rare flowers OF
civic and Christian character need
more care and attention than the
most delicate dollhouse flowers. The
human mind and will have been dark
ened and weakened. The child lett TO
himself will grow up wild and savage.
IF the parents fulfill their duty
toward the education of their off
spring, the State has no more right to
step in and prescribe what shall be
taught than the State can prescribe
the food and clothing parents shall
furnish their children. The neglect of
this duty gives the State the right
and duty. In fact, as conditions are
today, the State ought to step in and
foster education, and even make 1t
compulsory. There are tens of thou
sands who will not educate their chill
dren; tens of thousands who neglect
1t. | maintain, therefore, that no tax
is more just, more legitimate, none
which will bring better results, than
the taxes for education.
Schools Opposed to Religion.
public schools are anti-religious-
| don't say that they are Intentional
ly opposed TO religion. They profess
to be religious, but this very
fsct makes them opposed to religion
in their effect. That the influence of
many of our higher institutions of
learning is destructive of religion,
ana even of accepted morality, has
been proved beyond the shadow of
doubt by recent disclosures in a
popular magazine of which we all
have heard. But look around the
country and we cannot fail to notice
the decay of religious belief. the re-
lection of the Scriptures, denial of
the supernatural, acceptance of an

In persuasive elegance of mega
ton, parrying gently the insistence
of one who asked him about his &C.
clesiastical career, Monsignor Whelan
the other day proved that he was
both a diplomatist and modest man.
AS one studied his noble face, heard
him say that he was neither a pro-
found scholar nor a great speaker,
there came to mind the memory of
another modest man-one Grover
Observation-Disclosures in his New York
office after he had retired from the
chief magistraey of the United States
And the self-renunciatory attitude of
the two men, so alike in nature, so
dissimilar in face and form, suddenly
struck one as a wonderful fact, in
view of the achievements of each in
the sphere to which he had been
called.
Gives All Credit to His Flock.
But If Monsignor Whelan, as rector
of st. Patrick's Cathedral was only
willing to speak in so far as to ascribe
to the spirit and support of his flock,
his success in Newark others were
ready to tell a story better adapted
to illustrate his courage and strength
of will than any eulogy l could con-
ceive or publish.
"Monsignor Whelan? OH" said a
gentleman whom l asked about the
rector. THAT is the former pastor
OF ST. Mary's, in Bayonne, and. by
the way, he is the only man that |
ever heard of who dared to beard the
Standard Oil Company, and carried
his point against that defiant cor
poration.
YES" continued the gentleman,
This one fact in the career of Mon
signor Whelan will so unfold his
character before your readers that
they will ask for nothing more.
Wrong TO His Boys.
THE then Father Whelan had not
been long in Bayonne before he be
came aware of a wrong which
aroused his indignation A number of
lads, the offspring of people in his
parish he discovered, were employed
by the Standard OH Company, who
required them to give their services
for seven days In the week
Father Whelan girded himself with
the fiery circlet of his righteous
wrath Then he FASTENED to that
world famed portal at 26 Broadway,
1t is not of record that he was re-
ceived by that astute buffer and
press agent of the Standard Oil, j. L.
c. Clarke, former manager for Albert
Pulitzer's amazing paper, but it Is
well known that the reception of

Days Week, and Conquered.

Father Whelan was so Impressive,
cordial and reassuring that he re-
garded his mission of protest as at
once successful He went home and
waited, as he had been advised was
the proper thing to do.
Some weeks passed; the boys yet
YEARLY hurried to their task the al
lotted seven days. Monsignor Whelan
Father Whelan then still-prepared
for another journey to 26 Broadway.
This time there were gloomy frowns
narring the severe beauty of his
countenance. But his reception, as he
related his case and announced his
request for relief for his boys, was
50 gracious, so sympathetic was his
hearer that his anger declined, his
heart was soothed and he returned,
still believing the observation of the
agent of the company that his pro-
test should have immediate atten-
tion. He departed again and waited.
His Final Protest.
Then q morning came when Father

sock and blacklist overcoat, calmly
bent his course again to &c Broadway.

was deputed to receive him-perhaps
it was the poetical Mr.. Clarke-Father

answered the subordinate. "In due
