they have a grievance against the

Catholics are faithful to this land
of liberty. The country has no

the conception of American Cath

we have quoted.
The Father of His Country
wrote in the troubled days OF
1873, "Your countrymen will be
ever grateful for your loyalty and
DEVOTION" addressing the Catho-
lies who helped him. That was
at the beginning. 1t will be so I'M
til the end of the Republic. But
we Catholics expect to be mis-
represented. A world that did
not spare its own Redeemer can
not be expected to refrain from
falsely accusing the Church which
He founded and, which is His
spouse. But as we travel Through

and sweet comfort, to know there
are those in this great free land,
not OF our faith, who will not re-
main silent while we are falsely
accused and who fear not the
rantings of the ignorant, the pre-
JUDGED or the perverted.

TOO BACKWARD.

Is it not true that Catholics
have as a general rule not taken
the active part they should in So
cial service work? Bishop Null
doom declares that his experience
has led him to this conclusion.
For instance: But two Catholics
were on the national child labor
committee. That was not right,
but it was not, the fault of the
committee. Many Catholics were
invited to join.
OF course, many of the recent
so-called movements have been

we are not doing our full duty
unless we. take our share of the

forms. We must, however, be
able to discriminate. A craze for
fads is worse than inaction; and
too many people mistake fads for
real "uplift movements" because
others call them such.
At the same time, Catholic
thought and Catholic moral teach
ing should permeate and leaven
movements for the general good.
Catholic principles should be

By raising more than $1,000
from Tag Day on August 10Th,
the Worcester, Mass, Irish Relief
Fund Committee showed what
can be accomplished in short
time by enthusiastic and ener-
getic effort. The Worcester Or
ganization comprised all of the
leading clergymen and most of
the prominent laymen of the city.
The committee appealed for funds
through the mail and through the
newspapers which were very gen.
erous with their space. More
than 100 was collected before
Tag Day. -Four hundred young
women, carefully chaperoned who
volunteered to collect funds,

ular. A few years ago it was eu-
genics and sex hygiene. Next
year probably it will be some new
immortality advocated under the
guise of "uplift." We must be
prepared to combat these mons
trosities as we'll to give our CO.
operation to what is of value in
new movements.
We do not care to frame ex-
cuses for Catholics in their back
wardness and their apparent sus-
picion of social "uplift" move
sments. A great deal of it is prob
ably due to indifference or to un-
warranted timidity. But good
share of it is due to well-founded
suspicion of the motives and pur-
poses of these later movements.
We can scarcely blame Catholics
for their slowness in taking up
with new movements. They are
not experts in judging of them
at a first glance and distinguish
ing the good from the bad. Of
course, we have only ourselves to
blame if we do not perform our
share of the constructive, work
that is needed to make society
better. But our leaders have not
been overanxious to point the

FRANCE AND GERMANY
AND HUMANITY.

The feeling between France
and Germany has never been as
bitter as the feeling between Eng
land and Germany and, vice versa
There are numerous instances
that might be cited to bear out
this statement. Though fight
ing each other constantly and
fercely, the French and Germans
have shown respect and esteem
for each other and have treated
the prisoners and the people of
the conquered places along the
lines with every consideration.
The most remarkable instance
OF this mutual respect and es-
TEEN is to be found in the fol-
lowing cablegram in the daily
press of Monday last:
Berlin, Aug. ~, by wireless to
Sayville.-An official statement
issued here today says:

SENATOR JONES CHAMPIONS
ALIEN BORN CITIZENS,

Senator Jones of Washington at

partment, because they were not ma
tive-born Americans. These foreign
born citizens so discharged were en-
ployed on the United States army
mine planter, Major Samuel Ringgold,
and were six in number.
More than month ago Senator
Jones introduced a resolution in the
Senate and had it passed, calling upon
the Secretary OF War to inform the
Senate what orders had been issued
by the War Department during the
last three years, directing the non
employment OF or discriminating be-
tween citizens of the United States
in connection with the work of his
department.
There has never been any reply to
this resolution, as far as l know"
said Senator Jones. while we have
the right to insist, upon an undivided
allegiance and undiluted Americanism
on the part of those who have had
American citizenship conferred upon
them. do they not have the right to
be treated by the government as
American citizens in the fullest sense
of the word?
Under date Of April "a, 1916, the
Secretary of War issued an order di-
recting the discharge Of certain men

Why were they discharged? Solely
because they were not native.born.
1t is interesting to note that none of
these discharged. American citizens
were born in any of the nations now

Senator Jones read a letter signed
by Capt. H. D. Colby, commanding
the Ringgold, in which the captain
stated the only reason for the dis.
charge was that the War Department
has just decided that foreign.born
citizens of the United States shall no
longer be employed as civilian EN-.

The discussion between Col. p.
H. Callahan of Louisville and 10
seph Bremen of Boston, which
took place before the Catholic
Federation convention in New
York, appears to have raised a
difference of opinion among
many Catholics throughout the
United States as to the proper at

udices of our non-Catholic citi-
zens.

the religious prejudice committee

marked:
Zone of the purposes of this

non-Catholics who believe that
we look on all things through
