forth by His Holiness. The causes of
war are enumerated. The lack of sin.
cerity and mutual rest among men is
set forth. A contempt for authority
and the presence of racial hatred
among the nations of the world are
mentioned among the causes of the
present social unrest. The Holy Faith
er manifested keen desire to restore
Christian principles to their places Of
honor among nations. A deep-felt
tribute is paid to the memory of the
late Pope Plus the Tenth, and Pope
Benedict, as his successor, announces,
as one of his ambitions, his intention
to strive to fulfill the ideals and con-
tinue the efforts of his sanity pred
ecessor. The present pope, like his
predecessor, has turned his attention
to modernism and condemns this In.
sidious foe to Christianity in no I'M
certain terms. Regarding the policy
of the Papacy on the Roman question,
no change is manifested. The same
reasons are set forth and the same
protest given that have marked the
reigns Of previous popes. 1t is one
of the chief concerns of the Holy Faith
er to restore peace and tranquility to
the world. .e.
There was grave speculation the
world over, as to the type of man who
was elected to succeed Pope Plus the
Tenth. The recent Encyclical pro-
nounces him to be man of unusual
ability whose actions are guided by
motives of Christian charity and whose
grave concern is humanity and the
peace and prosperity of the Church,
and his solicitude for the spiritual vel
fare of the faithful entrusted to his
care.

IRELAND NEEDS HER OWN.

Their king and country needs
them," declared Kitchener when ask
ing for Irishmen between the ages Of
nineteen and thirty-five years to enlist
In the British army. What contrast
between the transport ships carrying
Irish youths to the British army
trenches and the immigrant ship, the
scaffold and the prison of former
years. How exultingly the English de-
clared that the Irish would soon be
scarce on the banks Of the Shannon.
A grave emergency threatens the Eng
lish government. Too much blood has
already been shed to satisfy England's
demand for sacrifice. The blood of
ireland belongs to Ireland. Ireland's
fight has not been won. Despite the
proclamation of the pro-British, Home
Rule is not a reality, regardless OF
declarations to the contrary. Those
who gave their life in Ireland's cause
in former times accomplished much
to fulfill a purpose for which their
lives were given. The Irishmen who
enlist in the British army deny the
glories of their patriotism, mock the
widows sorrow, and the orphans
tears and foster a suspicion that the
Irishmen wearing British uniforms
represent true descendants Of the
patriots whose names are cast with
Emmett, O'Brien, and Wolf Tone.

WHAT LABOR WANTS.

Portion of address of Chairman OF

fore A. F. of L. conventions:
"The insistent cry of labor is for it's
characterization, if may SO express
1t, that no man will be satisfied, no
man of intelligence ever, until he Il
given the full product of his own toll.
That sentiment, my friends, was ex-
pressed by your distinguished presi-
dent at our first meeting in New
York; it has been voiced by every
intelligent leader of labor thought

down the Pacific coast One finding I
can say, this commission will make.
after an investigation covering the
wide territory l have mentioned, after
hearing from almost 300 employers
representing all of the great industries

point of numbers representing an en-,
ploying capacity greater than any
body of men ever brought together
before in the history of this country.

man who tolls shall have a compelling
voice in the conditions under which
he gives his work, a voice as to COM

dittons; and when say that every
man must have the product of his own

THE FAILURE OF GOVERNMENT
TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE
SYSTEMS.

Address delivered by F. G. R. Cor
don at the fifteenth annual meeting of
the National Civic Federation, New
York City:
The most common argument made
in favor of the specialization of the
telegraph and telephone is that under
private ownership they are a monop.
oily, operated for profit, with high rates
and poor service; and that by having
the government own and operate them
they can become part of the postal
system with large economies in opera
ton, and in turn supply the people
with cheaper rates, good service and
higher wages to the men and women
who operate the lines, and, lastly, pro-
vide a surplus for the government.
Il shall prove just the opposite of
all this glittering dream, shall prove
that wherever the telegraph or the
telephone have been socialized there
is extremely poor service, with large
financial losses, low wages for en-
ployes, and rates that, on the whole,
are fully as high as they are in this
country, and in many instances higher.
NEARLY all the nations of Europe,
as we'll as New Zealand and Australia
own and operate both telegraph and
telephone systems and have for many
years.
"The alleged success of our post.
office department is used as an argu-
ment for the further extension of the
specialization Of the means Of COM
munication. But as a matter of fact,
there are fundamental differences ex-
listing between the social function of
the postoffice and the work of the tele-
graph and telephones. The mail service
is universal; it requires mostly only
the simplest character in its opera
ton; its, work is to a great extent per.
formed by private common carriers.
But, despite its comparative simple.
ity, and ease of operation, our post
office has not been a financial success
from any standpoint. All the gains,
where any have been made, have come
from the private ownership features
of that business.

Bishop ESTABLISHES LABOR
81 COMMISSION.
PROGRAM OF CATHOLIC SOCIAL
SERVICE COMMISSION PUT
INTO PRACTICE.
To Improve the Spiritual and Material
Condition Of the Workingmen In
Pittsburgh Diocese.

The Diocesan Commission of Labor,
recently established in Pittsburgh by
the Right Rev. Bishop Canevin, D. D.,
is in line with the program constantly
advocated by the. Social Service Com
mission of the American Federation of
Catholic Societies. Such a Commits
sion will advocate the principles en-.
dorsed by the Federation, namely:
1. To render social service based
not SO much on charity as upon jus.
tice.
2. In particular, to encourage con.
ferences of Catholic employers and
conferences of trade unionists, first
separately and then Jointly, with a
view to Cancellation and agreement in
advance of all labor strife.
3. To offer mediation and arbitra.
ton in the event of industrial dis
putes.
The main objects of the Pittsburgh
Commission of Labor are to improve
the spiritual and material condition
of the workingman, to remove certain
abuses such as excessive and unneces:
sary hours of work on Sunday, and
especially to carry out the spirit of
the encyclicals of Pope Leo XIII and
Pope Plus X. Both of these Popes
have strongly insisted on the urgent
necessity of clergy and laity trying to
deal with the crying problems of the
day, such as the enormous dispropor-
ton between the excessive wealth of
the capitalists and the grievous pow.
erty of the workiAgman, the greedy
rapacity often displayed by the en-
ployer and the tendency of the en-
ploye to use violent, and, therefore,
unnecessary means to obtain his law
full rights.
The commission intends to start in
parts of the diocese short systematic
readings and discussions on economic
and social subjects. At first these
readings and discussions will be of a
very practical and elementary char
acter, and stringently limited in dura-
ton. In this way it is hoped to build
up among the Catholic workmen a
school of thought, which will bring
about unity of action. Eventually the
movement may even spread through
out the states of the Union and may
lead to a great educative and organic
ing movement on the part of the great
mass Of Catholic workingmen.

DUBLIN CASTLE CENSORSHIP.

There were ugly facts connected
with the English government in keep
ing from the Irish people the knowl-
edge that is rightfully theirs. The
order recently given against Irish pub
locations, brave enough to present to
the Irish people the manner In which
Irish soldiers were treated in the Eng
lish army, produced a thunderous roar
of remonstrance from the government
and sharp lookout for anything that
pretended to present the facts as they
were. When the Irish people at home
were informed that the Irish soldiers
were sheltering Tommy Atkins when
in danger, the suppressions of these
publications were Immediately called
for. When Tommy Atkins retreated
towards Paris, the Connaught rangers
were used to protect the retreating
end and when an advance was made
they were placed in position of dan.
ger. When these facts were brought
home to the Irish people the English
government asked for the suppression
of the paper which published these
facts. The plain truth was telling.
There was but one thing to do and that
thing was promptly done. Irish papers
were suppressed; and yet we hear of
pro-British sentiment. In addition to
publishing these facts the situation
was presented to the Irish people re.
garding the question of the enlistment
of Irish young men in the English
army. This too -interfered with the
recruiting officers. On these two
grounds the suppression was accom-
plished.
