PROCLAMATION FROM
THE PRESIDENT
The Greatest Tragedy of the Great
War

For more than three years Amer
lean philanthropy has been large
factor in keeping alive Armenian,
syrian, Greek and other exiles and
refugees in Western Asia.
On two former occasions | have
appealed to the American people in
behalf of these homeless sufferers,
whom the vicissitudes of war and
massacre had brought to the extrem-
est need.
The response has been most gen
erous, but now the period of rehabili-
tation is at hand. Vastly larger
sums will be required to restore these
once prosperous, but now impover-
ished, refugees to their former homes
than were required merely to sustain
life in their desert exile
1t is estimated that about 100000
Armenian, Syrian, Greek and other
war sufferers in the Near East will
require outside help to sustain them
through the winter. Many of them
are now hundreds of miles from their
homeland. The vast majority OF
hem are helpless women and chill
lren, including 100000 orphans.
The American Committee for Re
lief in the Near East is appealing fol
4 minimum of S30,000,00 to be sub
scribed January 1919, 1919, with
which to meet the most urgent needs
of these people.
I, therefore, again call upon the
people of the United States to mako
even more generous contributions
than they have made heretofore tt
sustain through the winter month;
those, who, through no fault Of theiI
own, have been left in starving
shelterless condition, and to hell
rc-establish these ancient and sorely
oppressed people in their formel
homes on a self-sllnnortin0 basis.

THE END OF A PIONEER

The temporary demise of the Free
mans Journal of New York City, with
whose earlier years SO many disting
uished Catholic names are associated
leaves the Cincinnati Catholic Tele
graph (1S31; the Boston Pilot (1836)
and the Pittsburgh Catholic (1846) the
sole survivors of the many Catholic
papers begun in the first half of the
nineteenth century. From 1906 to
1911 there were $50 Catholic publica.
tions started.
New York's first Catholic paper was
the Truth Teller, published by William
Denman April 2.1825, to March 81,
1855. In the course Of years the faint
of trusteeism and politics occasioned
the advent in October 1888, of rival,
the Weekly Register and Catholic
Diary, which lasted three years. This
was followed in 1889 by the Catholic
Register and a year later, James w.
and John E. White, nephews of the
famous Irish novelist Gerald Griffin,
published the Freeman's Journal. In
January, 1910, the two papers were
combined as the Freeman's Journal
and Catholic Register.

DIES A CATHOLIC

Anna Held, Famous Actress, Converted
by Her Daughter.
Anna Held, noted actress, who died
Monday in New York City, was orig.
inally of the Jewish faith, but EN-.
braced Catholicity about ten days be.
fore her death at the earnest solicita-
ton of her daughter, Miss Lame Held
Carrera, and the last Sacramento were
administered shortly before she lost
consciousness.
The funeral was held in New York
Wednesday. The casket was placed in
a vault in Woodlawn Cemetery, and at
the end of the war the body will be
taken to Paris for burial.
Anna Held was As years old. She
won fame in the risque type of com
edy, but her "naughtiness" was never
harmful, and she gained a reputation
for practicing the most commendable
virtues in her private life.

St. Stephens Parish
viscount Bryce On
Irish Affairs

Viscount Bryce, the English states
man and diplomat, has just given the
London press the following express
sion upon Irish affairs:
Few events in the tragic history of
Ireland during the last six years have
excited so deep a personal regret as
the death of John Redmond, whose
wise, dignified and patriotic attitude
at the outbreak of the war secured for
him the same respect and confidence
from the whole people of England as
he had long received and had we'll de-
served in Ireland and from those
everywhere who knew his upright
| ness and courage. His death few
| months ago has been a terrible loss
to both countries. Thinking of what
he might have done were he still
among us, we are all the more touched
by the letter, published few days
ago, in which his daughter made an
| earnest appeal for friendship and good
will between the peoples of the two
islands. She seems to fear that the
! present crisis has brought a danger
| that the old misunderstanding which
once divided the peoples may reappear.
Perhaps she does not fully realize that
| ever since Gladstone adopted the pol
icy of home rule the bulk of the Eng
lish people have had far better ap-
probation of Irish character and a
truer comprehension of the grounds
of Irish discomfort than they had fifty
or sixty years ago.
Up till 1886 there was a marked
opposition between the large majority
| Of Irishmen on the one hand and the
still larger majority of Englishmen
on the other, because both the great
English parties had failed to under
stand the grounds on which the claim
of home rule was based. Since 1886
a sentiment of sympathy for Ireland
has been strong in the Liberal party,
and is now by no means confined to
the Liberal party. There is now among
the bulk of Englishmen in all the
three parties a'wish to go as far as
possible to meet and satisfy the de-
| sire for large measure of Irish SELF
government. 1t is not too much to
say that the question of home rule is
now "a question not between the two
islands, but one between two sections
of the Irish people-one section de-
| string and the other rejecting what
the majority of the convention recon-
mended. This ought to be better known
in other countries, as well as more
| fully realized in Ireland, than is the
case. Miss Redmond need not there
fore fear any return to the unfortu-
nate conditions of fifty years ago, when
mistrust and suspicion were strangling
the two peoples. These conditions
have now, we may well believe, passed
! away forever. It is nevertheless true
that what appears an unwillingness
in Ireland to help in the fight against
Germany has caused some irritation
in England, just as the attempt to
force compulsory military service on
Ireland has reawakened suspicion
| there.
To Irish Nationalists It has seemed
to be an exercise Of arbitrary author
ity to one nation over another. "That
we 1rishmen," they say, ARE as good
fighters as any Englishman or Scotch
man, and just as loyal to the flag we
follow, has been proved on many a
battlefield, but IL we are to fight we
J want to fight Of our own free WILL"
The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1918-08-24

Many Englishmen do not understand
this attitude, because they do not
realize that centuries of conflict have
made the Irish people sensitively
Jeealous of their own nationality, and
that the Irish mind has been so turned
in upon itself, so much occupied with
lreland's grievances and claims, that
it has not grasped the real meaning OF
this war. Englishmen are accordingly
disappointed that Ireland does not
show stronger desire to join in the
conflict against German aggression,
does not realize the crime of the Ger
man Government, nor the dangers with
which it's ambition threatens the
world. What is most wanted today
and this must be the foundation of
the good will and mutual confidence
which Miss Redmond most rightly de-
sires-is that each people should get
to understand the other more COM
pletely. A true understanding of one
another's character and ideas is the
basis of friendship between nations
as between men. Had that under
standing been created nearly eighty
years ago, when Daniel O'Connell,
made his moving appeal to the youth
full Queen Victoria, what SORROWS and
calamities would both countries have
been spared.
Today the two peoples have come
far nearer to just comprehension and
genuine friendship than seemed OBJ
tainable in those days when the Gov
eminent of England was not yet in
the hands Of the people. There need
be no fear now in Ireland that the
English democracy, bewildered as
they are by the reckless violence and
wild language of the Sim Feiners,
have any infection of going back on
the home rule policy which Parliament
has solemly sanctioned in principle
and placed on the statute book. They
desire with all their hearts to see pros
perity and contentment in Ireland I'M
der home rule Parliament, and they
hope that when Ireland sees that her
aspirations will certainly be met, she
will of her own accord desire to join
in indicating against Germany those
very principles of liberty and nation
ality upon which she POUNDS her own
claims. This is not war which Eng
land has undertaken for her own bene-
fit. 1t is war for right and humanity,
and the victory of right and humanity
and liberty will be won for Ireland as
we'll as for the rest of Europe.
Those Englishmen and Scotsmen
who have for more than thirty years
been pressing the claims of Ireland
believing that the "union Of hearts"
which Gladstone sought. and for which
Miss Redmond pleads will surely come
at last, have no doubt as to what is
needed now. Parliament ought to
bring into operation large and eff
fective home rule scheme, and this
must be done without delay. There
has been too much delay already. And
Ireland on her part-so think her
English and Scottish friends-ought to
make it plain to the world that her
people stand in line with Britain and
America, Italy and France. These
four peoples are giving all that is
the menace of German ruthlessness
and tyranny. And Ireland, lover of
liberty and justice, how can she fail
I her sons should fight beside them in
such a cause?
