GREAT BRITAIN ABSORBING ONE
THIRD OF ALL UNITED
STATES EXPORTS

Export trade figures made public by
the Department of Commerce, show
that Great Britain is now using three
times as much American products as
any other foreign country, and is alb
sorbing more than one-third of all
American exports. British purchases
of all kinds in the United States last
year, amounted to $1,191 100000.
France holds second place, Canada
third and Italy fourth.
Estimates made at the Department
of Commerce last week put total mu-
nitions shipments since Europe began
to purchase for the present war, close
to quarter of a billion dollars. At
the rate shipments are going now, the
next four months would see this total
doubled, even, if production remained
at a standstill. but production is de-
clared to be growing faster now than
at any time since American manufac-
turers began conversion of their plants
into munitions factories.

GREAT NEED OF NATIONAL

The need of national leprosarium
was plainly demonstrated at the hear

mittee on public health and national
quarantine.
Senator Ransdell, chairman of the
committee and author of the bill call
ing for an appropriation of $25O,000 for
such a home, gave an account of his
personal interview with leper on the
subject, and the message from him to
the committee strongly urging the
need of a national leprosarium.
It was brought out in the testimony
by experts that from 800 to 1000 lepers

CARDINAL GIBBONS RECEIVES
GIFTS FROM BELGIUM.

Cardinal Gibbons received a num-
ber of inexpensive, but beautiful and
highly priced gifts from the suffering
children of Belgium last week in ac-
acknowledgement of the charity he dis
played towards them. Most of these
gifts were simple little things, some
being mere sacks in which flour had
been sent to the starving people of
Belgium. These sacks were embroid-
cred by the school children, some of
them with American and Belgium flags
intertwined. In the corner of one were
embroidered by the Countesse de Ra-
nesse, i6 years old, the words God
bless you" The handsomest of all the
gifts was satin cover for ciborium.
The presentation was made by David
B. Sasseen, of the New York offices of
the Commission for Relief in Belgium.
The Cardinal in expressing his
thanks said that the gifts were espe-
cially dear to him, because they were
the work of little children. He said,
in part: From the lips of infants,
Thou hast perfected praise!' says the
psalmist. am glad to see that noble
and inspiring things rise from the
devastation of this terrible war.
Nothing is more inspiring in my mind
than the generosity of the American
people when they see their brothers
and sisters in other parts of the world
suffering. When Ireland was starving,
this country responded whole-heart-
edly. It has been the same way in
the case of Belgium. America has
proved her generosity. OF the cities
in America, none has shown more
sympathy or been more generous than
our own dear city of Baltimore. l
want you to send back to these little
Belgium children my heartfelt thanks.
Tell them that will ask God to bless
them and that want them to pray for
me. Tell them that l hope that this
war will soon be over and that pray
that peace and prosperity may soon
cover Europe"

Bishop McGolrick Inter-
ested in Farmers
Problems

Rt. Rev. James McGolrick, Bishon Of
Duluth. has shown his deep concern in
the welfare of the farmers tributary
to Duluth and incidentally in the agri-
cultural problems which confront the
farmers in all communities in dispos-
ing Of their produce. Bishop McGol-
rick has always been known as one of
the most public-spirited men in the
state and always interested in all
concerns Of public welfare and the
general good of all classes and all
occupations, and 1t is no surprise to
his friends that the new and important
matter of providing adequate oppor-
tunity for the disposing of farm pro.
duce, should deeply interest His Grace,
as 1t appeals to him to be one of the
most important problems confronting
agriculturists. In an interview upon
the subject, Bishop McGolrick said:
For many years / have been in
terested in the welfare of the farmers
around Duluth and have successfully
urged numerous men to go out into
the country and buy farm lands and
settle OH farms. have even been in
strumental in securing settlers from
the outside to come to Minnesota and
locate on farms, and many of these
have lived to thank me for the advice.
But there are hard days ahead for
the farmers of st. Louis county, sorry
as ! am to face the fact and speak of
it, unless the city of Duluth does some
thing to provide public markets of the
right sort. What we have had we
have either lost or seemingly are
about to lose. refer first to the West
Duluth situation, where the only mar
ket facilities provided have been TAX
en- away from the farmers. In the sec
ond, to the public market in the old
armory, which has been sold.
II do not think the Commercial club
of West Duluth should be expected to
handle that question alone, able and
willing as it may be. believe it is
clearly the duty of the city commits
sioners to come to the aid of the peo-
Pile out in that part of the city and
act promptly and effectually. If the
old armory should be retained by the
city, through means of the proposed
referendum, the market there is only
one in name and must be improved.
Expresses His Views Always Welcome.
ut may not be pleasant to hear me
say that Minneapolis with her three
fine markets and St. Paul with her
splendid market facilities, have
reached almost the acme of perfec-
tion in these provisions for producers
and consumers.
Duluth should at the earliest pos
sible moment provide large sanitary
housing for the farmers and their
families, with all the creature COM
forts for them under one roof. Such
quarters, in both sections of the city,
would also prove attractive to buyers
as we'll.
II fear that as a people, we are
getting away from, or have perhaps
never reached in this new country, the
habits of thrift that are found in the
east and south, where the housewife
considers 1t luxury, duty and an
honor to go marketing with her bas'
ket. However, with such market
places as we have had in Duluth, the
inducement for these economical prac
ltices have been lacking.

The memory Of Washington was fit
tingly honored by the Knights of Col
umbus in Minneapolis and St. Paul on
Tuesday, February 22d, when programs
arranged under the auspices of the
Knights of Columbus were carried out
before large audiences in both cities.
The program arranged by the council
in Minneapolis included banquet at
the Gold Room of the Radisson hotel,
where 25O guests assembled. At the
conclusion of the banquet addresses
were made by the Rev. M. O'Brien,
pastor of st. Thomas church, Mime
apolis, Attorney Daniel H. Grady, of
Portage, Wis, and Hon. Edw. G. Dunn
of Mason City, Iowa.
pleasant surprise was sprung upon
the guests when Mr.. Leo Nadon, a
gifted young tenor soloist, sang group
of songs. Mr.. Nadon is native of
Minneapolis, member of St. AIMS
parish. The Knights of Columbus are
happy to recognize his talents.
The address delivered by Father
OBrien, the first speaker on the pro-
gram, sustained Father O'Brien's repu.
tation as an orator and after-dinner
speaker. Father O'Brien has a style
all his own and is entirely at home
on Knights of Columbus programs. We
have the pleasure of reproducing in
full Father O'Brien's excellent address,
Mr.. Grady, second speaker on the
program, impressed his audience as a
speaker of exceptional ability. His ap-
pearance and personality at once paved
the way for the kindly interest with
which his remarks were greeted.
American Ideals" was the speakers
theme.
The last speaker on the program was
Hon. Edw. G. Dunn. Mr.. Dunn's name
and fame preceded him. His many
friends among the knights in the Twin
Cities have long been anxious to have
him appear on Knights of Columbus
program. The many complimentary
utterances made concerning Mr.. Dunn
as an after-dinner speaker put his au-
dience in frame of mind to EXPECT
much from the Past State Deputy Of
Iowa. He sustained his reputation
for good humor, wit and oratory.
Owing to mission at the Holy Ros.
ary church, Father Shells place on
the program was taken by Rev. FIR.
