RETREAT AT NEW ALBANY.

The retreat given for the Catholic
men of New Albany under the aus
pices of the Knights of Columbus
closed on last Sunday night. Cath
olics have lived in New Albany for
nearly a century and during that
time there have been many missions
and retreats, but from outward APP
pearances at least this was the most
successful of any heretofore held.
About 700 men of Holy Trinity and
st. Mary's churches attended the
services every morning at 5 o'clock
and every evening at 1880, this not
withstanding the weather was in
clement and bitterly cold during
most of the time. The Jesuit Father
Jensen, of st. Louis. conducted the
retreat. On last Sunday morning
all of the men of both congregations
went to holy communion, bringing
together the largest number of men
ever assembled in st. Mary's.
Fathers Seibertz and Curran, rectors
of the two churches, have reason to
feel proud of the men of their re-
spective congregations. May the
effects of the retreat prove per-
manently beneficial.

The First Report of the Indus
trial Relations Commits
sion.
Catholic Social Action Is Un-
questionably the Need of
the Day.
Nine CAUSES OF The UNREST

The first summary report of the
Industrial Relations Commission,
based on an exhaustive investiga-
tion, was published several weeks
ago The commission, which was
established by Congress to ascer-
tain the cause of the present social
unrest and to propose a social reform
Programme to remedy thuse
problems. has completed it's first
years work.
Nine cardinal causes of the un-
rest most generally agreed upon by
employers and employees alike were
presented to Congress. OF these
nine the charge of misunderstanding
and prejudice, which is agreed to by
employers and employees, is of spe-
cial interest and notice. Catholics
more than others can appreciate
this assertion. The relationship be-
tween employer and employe is one
Of misunderstanding and not one of
class difference. Bigotry is at pres
ent a special brand of this prejudice
and Misunderstanding and has
caused much unrest, and is steadily
becoming more serious and alarm
ing.
The second cause, that the unrest
Is largely worldwide movement
arising from a laudable desire for
better living conditions, and that
this charge is especially advanced by
representatives of labor, Socialists
and employers, and generally en-
dorsed by other interested parties,
likewise should hold the attention
of Catholics. Unquestionably the
desire for the betterment of ones
living conditions has been a potent
cause for unrest, but not necessarily
for discomfort and disturbance, ever
since man recognized the family as
the unit OF society.
The cause agreed to by both en-
ployers and employes-that the
rapidly growing feeling that redress
for injuries and oppression can not
be secured through existing institu-
tions-merely verifies the need of
social reform.
1t is observed by the commission
that underlying all industrial unrest
and discomfort there are funda-
mental causes, that statesmen,
economists, sociologists, employers
and workers have been concerned
with certain of these causes ever
since Industrial organization brought
US employing and wage-earning
classes; that the experiences of
these men and women and their
theories, as well as the facts, must
be studied in order to gain an
adequate conception of the causes
and effects of such fundamental
phenomena of modern economic life
as the changing distribution Of
wealth. the worldwide rise in prices
and the cost of living. the move
ment of population from rural to
urban centers, the ever-increasing
invention of the labor-saving ma
chinery. the discovery OF new indus.
trial processes, the almost rhythmi-
cal recurrence of prosperity and de-
preston, the development of great
Industrial and financial corporations
and the Increasing influence of the
working class.
These conditions have brought
about a series of problems, some
serious, some not, but all clamoring
for an answer and a solution. Cath
olic social action, or Catholic social
service, is unquestionably the need
OF the day. Indifference and even
apathy among Catholics is too con-
spicuously prominent.

Debate on the immigration bill
pending in the Senate at Washington
continued all the week. with early
indication that action on the meas
ure would be deferred until after the
holidays. This was made practically
certain as result of the announced
intention Of Senator Lewis, of ill.,
nois. to Introduce an amendment To
eliminate from the bill the proposed
|iteracy test for aliens. He had
served notice on the Senate to that
eject following conference with
President Wilson. who is opposed to

HOME GUARD PROTESTS.

At a meeting in Manchester, Eng
land, a protest was made to the
Kings Ministers against the appoint
ment of Sir Henry Howard as a
special Minister to the Vatican, and
the protest stated "that this action
will strain to the uttermost endeav-
ors of all loyal Englishmen to sink
all differences and work together
for the interests of the empire" II
is worthy of note that these bigots
who are under such a strain to sup
port the empire are doing 1t long
ways from the battle front.
