ORIGIN OF MILITARY FIELD.
HOSPITALS.

Everywhere the enlightened and
charitable care given to the wounded
in the great European war is highly
praised, remarks the Catholic News.
But the origin of the system Of mill
tary hospitals and ambulances is not
generally known. This useful form Of
Christian devotion is due to the Pa
pacy. In the course of the war with
the Turks made illustrious by the
Polish hero, John Sobieski, in the Sec
ond half Of the seventeenth century,
Pope Innocent XII. was struck by the
sad fate of the sick and wounded sur
fering from insufficiency of sanitary
aid. He had the idea of establishing
at his own expense in Hungary a fly.
ing hospital provided with an abund.
ant staff of doctors and surgeons, who
followed the Christian army every.
where. Thus was the foundation OF
the Sanitary and Red Cross service
of today laid by Pope, Just as our
nuns laid the foundations of nursing
service before the days Of the noble
and devoted Florence Nightingale,
who herself paid tributes to Catholic
nuns.

Very Rev. Francis C. Kelley, of the
Catholic Church Extension Society, of

last week, called on President Wilson,
Secretary of State Bryan and Secre-
tary of War, Garrison, and discussed
with them the conditions in Mexico as
affecting the Catholic clergy.
Father Kelley told the President
that General Villa is showing more
consideration for Catholic nuns and
priests in Mexico than formerly, but
General Carranza continues to harm
them. General Zapata has never
harmed the religious.
Father Kelley also said that condi-
tions in Mexico were extremely cha

Bishops, two hundred priests and one
hundred and fifty nuns in the United
States, and about the same number
in Cuba. adding that many more in
hiding in Mexico.

CONGRESS FLOODED WITH LET.
TIERS.

Hundreds of letters have been pour

weeks, from Catholics in every sec
ton of the United States, addressed
to their representatives and senators
in Congress-, and protesting against
the use of the United States mails for
carrying the Menace and other SINH.
lar publications.
The communications are source of
curiosity at the Capitol, and you hear
the question quite frequently asked,
Have you seen the letters in Sena-
tor room, or in Representative
room; if not, just go in and
have a look"
These protests have been coming
so fast of late, that it is absolutely
impossible to reply to each one sepa-
rately, and members Of Congress arc
sending an answer In the shape Of q
printed form.
It's a we'll known fact that litera-
ture of this kind is carried at loss
to the government, therefore, every
tax payer in the United States really
contributes to the transfer of these
vile sheets.
The pity of the whole situation is
that these letters cannot be brought
directly to the immediate attention Of
the authorities, for under the present
system it's impossible, as all COM
munications addressed to the Post
master General and others, are invari.
ably handled by their secretaries, and
never reach them personally.
Some members of Congress who
have given this matter serious atten-
ton, question the wisdom of institut-
ing action against such vile sheets
going through the U. s. mails, taking
the stand that the net result would be
to largely increase their circulation
and influence.
