TWO CARDINALS.

Cardinal Gibbons, America:
II am opposed to any statewide or
nationwide prohibition measure. A
law Of this kind interferes with the
personal liberty and rights of the peo-
pie and creates hypocrisy on the. part
Of the public. The history of the
world down to the present time DEM
onstrates the fact that the people
have and always will indulge In in
toxicants. irrespective II any re-
straining power that it is attempted
to saddle upon them"
Cardinal Mercier, Belgium:
''You who hold the Christian faith
look around you at those who suffer
from the effect of alcoholism. Can
we be insensible to the spectacle Of
this misery and pass by on the other
side? No, indeed! ] am only dis
charging my duty as Catholic, as
priest, as bishop. in coming to coop
crate with you in the struggle against
alcoholism. While waiting for our
government to take action, we have
a right to take action, we have no
right to be inactive. Private initia-
tive should act without delay. And
first of all be educating public opinion,
preparing the way for Intervention by
law"
Which is the more civilized-the
more Christian-view7
