CATHOLIC EDITOR ASKS
FOR SOCIAL INSURANCE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

able to come from Baltimore to take part
in the meetings.
Examination of modern society reveals
a great fringe of people who are unable
to maintain a decent livelihood" said
N. P. Kenkel, OF st. Louis, editor OF So
cial Justice, discussing the role OF legis-
lation in the field. of relief, at last nights
session, with Mrs. S. X Wilson, presi-
dent of the Catholic Women's League, of
Chicago, presiding. This condition is
becoming more serious, in spite of the
great gains OF material wealth.
Among the most effective measures to
which modern states have recourse, strik-
Ing at the manifold causes of destitutiOn,
are systems of social insurance. Not only
do they afford compensation for Industrial
accident, but also they provide against
the i'll economic effectis of sickness, old
age, inability, widOwhood. orphanage and
unemployment.
The great spectre before the working
man today is the insecurity which mod
ern industry produces. Social insurance
will mitigate this depressingly uncertain
state, and aid in making our democracy a
democracy with discipline.
I'm relief work the State should note
where private charity Is falling short, and
seek to supplement such activity thus al
lowing full exercise of private charitable
endeavor, and at the same time reducing
dependency to the minimum
Mr. Kenkel advocated the fullest pos
sible extension and expansion of the civil
service principle in the public system.
Dealing with private and group initla-
tive in the relief work. Edward McDer-
mott, former lieutenant governor of Ken
lucky, criticised the tendency toward
State control OF charity.
Charity by the State" eaid the speak
er. requires a compulsory tax to be levied
upon the willing and the unwilling, not
only on the rich, but also upon many
who can i'll afford to pay. Voluntary
charity, which comes only from those able
and willing to give, is kind and ennob-
ling"
Mr. McDermott reviewed the history of
the British poor law, to show the de-
basing effects of State charity carried to
the extreme. Under the poor law before
1898 the laborer received low wages, but
was given financial assistance out of the
taxes.
The relations Of the Catholic press to
relief work, was the subject of a paper
read by Monsignor Thomas, Of ST. Anne's
Church, Baltimore.
THE Catholic press" said Monsignor
Thomas, should be the great publicity
agent for all Catholic relief organiza-
tions. It should tell of their work, and
interpret their spirit for others, so that
the sphere of their influence may be ex-
tended. 1t should annunCiate the prin-
ciples which are to guide Catholics in
their relief work"

Urges Social Centers
For Young Catholics

Establishment of a Catholic civic and
social center in each big city, somewhat
on the lines of central Y NJ, c. A. build
ings, but more comprehensive in charac-
ter, was urged by Rev. Father Edward
Garesche, s. J., of st. Louis, at yester-
days meeting Of the women's section Of
the national conference Of Catholic Char
tiles in Mcmahon Hall, Catholic Univer-
sity.
Father Garesche declared it his opinion
that the Catholic parishes must supply
some such institutions as the Y. NJ. c.
A. and the Y. w. c. A, If they are to
maintain their hold on Catholics of the
younger generation. Some progress in
this direction has been made IN a num-
ber of cities, he said.
Organization Necessary.
As part of the program for organizing
such associations, he urged the revivify-
ing of the sodalities, and the formation
Of unions of sodalities in the cities, these
central organizations to lend a helping
hand in the work.
The speaker told of Y NJ. c. A secre-
taries who, encontering a Catholic youth
in strange surroundings, frequently made
it their business to put the stranger in
touch with the nearest priest or bishop.
He also said that of the 10000 members
of the Y. M. c. A, at least 10000 are
Catholics
franciscan sisters have informed me
that they have been able to keep in
touch with but one out of ten graduates
of their schools. Where do they go?
Had we such efficient and attractive
institutions as the Y M. c. A and the
Y. w. c. A, these young people would
remain active Catholics"
Eighteenth Century Methods Used.
Father Garesche pictured the life of
the young men and young women in the
modern city.
"Once people lived in parishes" he said
Now they live in factories, offices and
shops, and merely sleep at times in the
parish. Their days work DONE they go
home, perhaps, but stay only long enough
to snatch bite to eat. Then they're off
to the streets and commercialized amuse-
ments claim them. Burlesuue shows, the
movies, excursion boats-whereyer COM
mercialized amusements hang out the
sign, Good Time For Sale there they
will go, II the price is within their means
THE trouble is that we are depending
on eighteenth century methods in the
homes to meet conditions of today.
"A prepossessing lad was brought be-
fore me for some minor misdoing and
when 1 asked his name, he said Casey ;
"'Catholic?' 1 asked.
Nope, I'm Jew answered the boy.

tell me you're a Jew?'

any one who declares his Intention Of
attending the military camps. II Il
should, there Is no doubt a great many
irresponsible men would take ad-
vantage OF the offer and make an ey-
cursion trip to the camp without any
intention of undergoing a period OF
training. The problem could be handled
very nicely with the students, as only
those who are recommended by the col
lege authorities would be allowed to
take advantage Of the governments offer
for free transportation. The recomne D.
dations Of Gen. Scott for an spproprs-

is necessary to make them a success In
