Is the pope Of Rome q foreign
sovereign, claiming allegiance in
temporal as well as spiritual mat
ters throughout the world, or is he
not? Read the definite statement
on that subject which appears just
above this and is reprinted from
the Tablet of Brooklyn, N. Y,
m official organ Of the Roman Cath
olic church.
The Public School
Is the papsl system opposed 10
our public schools, and does that
system seek 10 destroy those schools,
or does it not? Let Rome answer
from the pages OF its own literature,
from the booklet entitled "Rights
CT Our Little Ones or First Prin-
ciples on Education" by james
Conway S. J. Of Canisius College,
Buffalo, n. Y, and published by
Benziger Bros. of New York, Gin
clnnati, and Chicago "Printers to
the Holy Apostolic See" Our quo
tations are from the third edition
of that booklet printed in 1905,
On page so Is the following:
Catholic parents cannot, in con-
science, send their children to
American public schools, except for
very grave reasons approved by the
ecclesiastical authorities" On page
, 80 we read: "The state cannot just
" enforce compulsory education,
eren in the case Of utter uliterucy,
as long as the essential physical
and moral education are sufficient
ly provided for"
On page 27 the Jesuit author Of
this official Roman Catholic declsr-
alton concerning education says
"While state education removes il
literacy and puts limited amount
of knowledge within reach of all,
Il cannot be said to hare a beneficial
influence on ciUlizdtion in general.
Beginning on page 20, we read :
''This system of state or public edu-
cation naturally results in the most
serious moral, social, and religious
evils" And note this sweeping
declaration on page "a: "BdSca-
tioR does Rotr lie Eithin the scope
of ciriI authority, whsrtors TIE
state cannot, pitheut violating high
er and hoEer rights, Esurp the right
and discharge the duty Of educating
the young"
4 This is all the space we can give
at this time to the Roman Catholic
preachments against public educa-
tion from this book; but what is
given should be sufficient to show
that the papal system is absolutely
and irreconcilably hostile to the
public school. II in doubt as to the
conclusion, get the book from the
publishers mentioned and read il
Tor yourself. The book as a whole
The menace. [volume] (Aurora, Mo.) 1911-1920, 1916-07-22

is far more conclusive in establish
ing our contention than the ex-
cerpts quoted.
Freedom Of the Press
Is the papal system opposed TO a
free press, and does 1t seek TO de-
stroy the right Of freely expressing
printed opinions, or is the state
ment, that il is and does, unwar-
ranted? The answer to that ques-
tion is TO be found and is clearly
stated in the bills introduced in
congress by those Roman Catholic
congressman, Fitzgerald and CALI
van, and supported by the AmeTi-
can Federation Of Catholic Socie-
ties, the papal press and Romish
Clergy without exception.
Space is too limited to reprint
them in full; but THE MENACE has
heretofore published their contents
and called attention to the effect Of
such legislation. The fact that they
seek to make a censor of the press
out of the postmaster-general is
sufficient TO establish our conten-
ton. A censored press is not a
free preSs. The press can remain
free though subject to laws regular
ly enacted and placed in the statute
books to be equally enforced in all
cases; but the press cannot enjoy
any degree of just freedom when
its existence is subject to the whim
Of an appointed censor. Equality
before the lGW protects press aud
people at the same time. Subjec-
tion TO the caprice of a censor,
Thom the people do not elect, rould
place eUery publisher at the mercy
Of the poStmaster-generdl WhO
could be a despot # he desired and
could destroy publishers and pubi-
cations tOithout process of laW,
trial By jury, or Vithout benefit Of
any of the safeguards proUided 10
insure impartial hearing and fair
trial Of alleged offenders.
Free Speech and Assembly
Is the papal system opposed to
free speech and public assembly,
and does it seek to destroy the right
Of the people to those privileges,
or does 1t notI This question is
answered with sufficient conclusive
ness by the many recent assaults
upon Protestant clergymen and
public speakers who dare take posi-
tons and make statements of fact
uncomplimentary 10 the papacy.
To prevent freedom of speech and
assembly, the Romish laity and
Knights of Columbus have resorted
in recent years to mobbings and
murders which are familiar to the
informed; and specific mention
would be superfuous.
But, to show that this practice
is in keeping with the spirit Of the

This Year.
Asks for Twenty-seven Subs.

For the first years construction the
General Board recommended only three
battleships, instead OF the four authorized
by the committee. The committee recon-
mended twenty-seven submarines instead
of twenty. as suggested by the board.
The amount to be appropriated for am
munition was fixed at Sls,S73, 500, as COM
pared with sl,2i5,925 provided by the
House
Other increases recommended by the
subcommittee are s,oS5. 900 for the
Charleston Navy Yard. 500. 900 for a hoat-
ing crane OF the revolving type for the
Mare Island Navy Yard. 1000 for addi-
tional ground for the Government Num-
tons Plant.
The limit of cost on battle-cruisers is
fixed at sl6,5ooooo, exclusive of armor and
armament.
The House provision for $50. 900 for
aviation is retained with an amendment
making 1t available also for the purcha sc
OF dirigibles.
It is provided that the total number OF
commissioned officers, exclusive Of COM
missioned warrant officers, shall be per
cent of the total enlisted strength of the
active list authorized by law
The authorized increase in the person
mel gives a full complement to all naval
vessels which will be fitted for sea serv-
ice within the next twelve months and
will also give all the battleshIps in re-
serve more than 80 per cent OF the full
complement.
The Marine Corps is increased from
5000 men TO approximately 1900 and may
be increased to approximately Il, 1000 in
time Of emergency.
