On Thursday and Friday of the Sec

Catholic War Council of the United
States of America had what may prop
erly be called it's first complete meet
ing. Actually, the fourteen Arch
bishops are the war council; there
was formal meeting of the Arch
bishops. The direction of the work
is conf1ded to an administrative COM
mittee of four Bishops; they were
present to report to the Archbishops
and to confer about the future. The
Committee of Bishops entrust the ac-
tual operating direction to the Knights
of Columbus and to committee on

operating in camps in this country;
that there are 228 secretaries at work
in them; that groups of secretaries

there are demands for very many
more buildings, especially convenient
to hospitals; that for the scores Of
smaller camps type of portable
house has been designed, involving
material saving in cost; that at three
arrival ports in France, at Paris, and
at London, Knights of Columbus es-

HENNEPIN-M Minneapolis
COUNCIL, K. OF G.
COMMUNION DAY
Knights Will Attend 8 O'Clock Mass
At Pro-cathedraI in a Body to
Receive Blessed Sacrament.

First and Second Degrees to be Given.
Sunday. May 5, is annual Commun-
ion day forthe members of Hennepin-
Minneapolis Council of the knights
of Columbus. The Council will attend
s O'Clock Mass at the Pro-Cathedral
and receive Holy Sacrament. The call
for assembly is 1880 o'clock at the
school hall, where the procession will
form and march to the church.
1t is especially requested that every
member will report promptly for
place in the line, thus showing prop
er veneration of the occasion. Break
fast will be served in the school cafe
terra after Mass, and the arrangements
for the same will be announced at the
service.
1t is hoped that every member will
make it point to participate in the

special manner to the spiritual well
fare and support of the brothers in
the national service.
At II o'clock the first degree will be
exemplified to a large class of appli-
cants at No. 322 Nicollet avenue, third

sion of sociability and good fellowship.
Sunday will be star letter day in
the calendar of the Knights, and no
brother can afford to miss any of the
activities of the several gatherings.

Withholding of which has caused SO
much trouble
This all involves time and it may
we'll be months before there is actual
application of conscription to ireland
Unless therefore Irishmen should
shoot before they are shot at,' as the
labor minister puts it, there seems to
be no reason for any immediate ap.
prehension of bloodshed in Ireland.
AT the moment the state of the coun-
try is undoubtedly grave, but more in
forecast than in actuality.
English Papers Change Views.
The delicacy of the situation is rec
ognized by the Irish Times, hitherto
in favor of conscription, which advises
the government and the Irish leaders
to escape from the truly miserable
position by organizing a great vol
untary recruiting campaign. This, the
newspaper believes, would make the
enforcement of conscription unneces-
sary.
The Daily News advises the govern
ment to drop altogether the attempt
to pursue this Irish adventure"
The Chronicle believes conscription
will not be attempted until home rule
is an accomplished fact and that then
the Irish parliament will be left to
raise men for the army in what pro-
portions and by what means it pleases.
Fifty-fve new members of the Irish
party met in Dublin last Saturday and,
with John Dillon presiding, unani-
mously adopted a resolution that in
the present crisis we are of the opin-
ion that the highest and most imme.
date duty of the members of this
party is to remain in Ireland and ac-
lively cooperate with their constitu-
ents in opposing the enforcement of
the compulsory military service in
Ireland"
The resolution pledged the party's
influence and power to defeat con-
scriptiop.

News of the appointment of Arch
bishop Ireland to the Cardinalate was
given to the people of the Northwest
in a story published in the Minneapo.
lis Journal of last Sunday. So far as
has been learned there has been no
denial of the truth of the Journals
story, which bears inherent evidence
of it's reliability. For it emanates from
Rev. Francis Jager, a member of the
faculty of the University of Mime
sofa, now soldier of the Allied forces
and a member Of the Red Cross Relief
commission to Serbia. Father jaeger
has earned distinction many times for
his services on the battle fields, and
has delivered several hundred lectures
on war topics in different cities of the
country. His reputation and reliability
are therefore unquestionable, and it is
fair to infer that he would not make
an announcement of this nature with
out absolute assurance Of it's accuracy
and dependableness.
We give the story as printed in the
Journal, which is to me highly COM
mended for it's enterprise in making
the first announcement of this matter
of nationwide interest to the people
of the Northwest.
Archbishop John Ireland, seriously
i'll at his residence in St. Paul, has
been named cardinal "in petto'' by
Pope Benedict at recent consistory
at Rome, unqualified title to be con.
ferred on him by the pope. at a con-
sistory- Immediately after the war;.
This information was given by Pope
Benedict himself to Rev. Francis lager,
University of Minnesota faculty mem
ber, who was a member of the Ameri.
can Red Cross mission to Serbia and
who obtained private audience with
His Holiness. Father lager since has
returned to Serbia. The Journal

BY majority of 1913, the House OF
Commons Thursday night, April 25
adopted the third reading of the Gov
ernment man-power bill, after an ex
citing debate, originated by John Dill
Ion, Nationalist leader. Dillon again
strongly attacked the government
policy and moved omission of the
clause applying conscription to Ire
land.
Dillon said he had been forty years
in public life during some of the
stormiest periods of Irish history, bu;
he never had known anything to ap
proach the feeling in Ireland today
If conscription was applied, the chaos
and confusion ensuing would be ap.

is issued applying the act to Ireland.
That order must lie on the table in

In that debate the members, who
in the recent division did not wish to
embarrass the fate Of the man power

to their opinions against conscrip-
tion in Ireland, can vote on Ireland

Chicago, ILL.,, April Goth, 1918.
Dear State President:
Ireland, during the first two years
of the war, contributed more fighting
men to the Allied cause in proportion
to her population than did either Eng
land, Scotland, or Wales. To con-
tribute in the same proportion to pop
ulation as much as Ireland has al
ready contributed, America would
have to have five and one-half million
of soldiers killed. These figures are
indisputable.
Two years ago, having grown tired
of English promises which were made
only to be broken, Ireland virtually
said to England, Il will give you no
more recruits for your army until you
give me my freedom" and Ireland has
kept her word.
Ireland's population, because OF
lack of industries which would keep
her young people at home, has de-
creased to such an extent that today
she has only one man to England's
eight.
