THE CATHOLIC CHURCH

J. P. o. Aahony in the Indiana Catholic

Those are indeed poor students of
the worlds history who do not recog-
nize in the Catholic church the most
consistent, the most powerful influ-
ence working always for true inter.
national peace.
We say true International peace
and by that we mean the reign Of
peace with justice among the nations

For there is so-called "Interna-
tional Peace Movement" which is not
true or sincere. 1t is not based on
justice. 1t simply calls for cessa.
ton of war, so that the big powerful
tyrants who have plundered the weak
er nations may remain in full posses
sion of their ill-gotten goods and that
the plundered and robbed may cry in
vain for justice.
individuals in the Catholic church
may give countenance to the program
of sub movement, but the Catholic
church, speaking authoritatively from
the Chair of Peter, never will.
The church prays and signs for the
reign of peace among nations and
men, but there can be no peace with

Just now there is a general cry 60
ing up from the professional peace ad.
vocates (paid salaries by Carnegie)
that the Hague conference be recon.
vened in 1916. Russia, the power that
called the first Hague conference, has
announced that she will not call this
conference. 1t is argued that the
United States ought to call it.
So far the Hague conferences far
from promoting true international
peace, have proved complete failures.
International jealousies have multi
piled since 1902. Terrible wars have
followed fast on each other, mark, the
Russian-Japanese; the Japanese-Ko-
rean; the Greco-Turkish and the Bal
kan war the last and most terrible.
Armaments have increased to an
alarming extent. The world is an
