The negro in our country at the

Church's helping hand. In the negro
missions can be produced other char.

way is not alone religious work but
likewise social work performed. 1t
is incumbent on Catholics to realize
the importance of this matter and to
contribute generously to the support
of the missions among the negro peo-
pie in this country. Too often, we are
inclined to believe, do they fail to un-
