The Balkans have reached a momen-

IMMIGRATION
is DISCUSSED

Toledo, o., Aug. 1S.--Immigration in
all its phases was discussed in a mass
meeting here last night by speakers
of note connected with the American
Federation of Catholic societies. Among
the speakers was Very Rev. Francis
Clement Kelley, L. l.. D., president of
the Church Extension society of Chi
cago.
Rev. Mr.. Kelley said in part:
Early Catholic immigration to Am
erica was chiefly Irish and German.
There were people who took care of
themselves. for there was no one else
to take care of them. They form even
vet, with their descendants, the prin-
cipal part of the self f-supporting group

added the French Canadians, Poles
and other Slavs. place all OF these
in the self supporting group because
they have settled in small towns and
in cities and have taken care of them
selves.

grants remain as good here as they
were in the old country. It should be

Monsignor Ambrose Roach, of Bos-

at the morning session. He asserted
that the state does not protect its
working people and that it never will
until forced to. Men and women, he
said, as well as children, are being
made slaves to conmercialism and
sacrificed to Mammon.
Monsignor Roach made strong plea
for the establishment in each vatican
federation diocese of a committee on
sociology, to be composed of clergymen
and laymen. This committee, he said,
should investigate the conditions sur
rounding the workingman and make a
full report to the federation, which in
turn should take steps for their better

when he reached Peking a string
Of copper coins with holes through
the center such as he had been

string, two feet in length, was
deemed to be worth about 10 or Is
cents, for the coins were only the
ordinary cash in current use in
the province of Shensi, from which
the traveller came; but upon ex-
animation by a member of the
American legation who knows the
Chinese language, 1t was found
that some bore the marks of en-
perors as far back as the year 2s4

beginning Of the Ching dynasty,
many of the Ming dynasty, and
even the dynasties that precede
the latter.
