Bishop Assails Clubs
With Sunday Bars

Philadelphia, March 12. - A cru
sade to close the bars of drinking clubs
on Sunday was initiated yesterday by
the Right Rev. John J. McCort, auxil-
larry bishop of the Roman Catholic
diocese of Philadelphia.
In letter to the Catholic Total
Abstinence Union of Philadelphia,
Bishop McCort vigorously denounced
the drinking club as 'intolerable" and
as doing "inestimable havoc to the
welfare of our young men,"
He emphasized the need for curbing
the Sunday sale of booze in clubs later
in an interview in which he declared
that the drinking club should be as
strictly regulated by the State as are
saloons.
