Christian Democracy as against all
these suggestions, and raised the ban
ner of Christian Democracy.
The PurposeSof Christian Democracy.
The purpose of Christian Democ-
racy, In the mind of Leo XIII, Is to
liberate the masses from century-old
injustice as from a newer form OF
Slavery, whose victims they have been
for centuries, to restore their dignity
and their rights. to strengthen tho
masses by q consciousness of duty
and the cooperation Of the entire
higher classes of society. and finally
to secure for them an existence and
q degree of well-being compatible with
their human dignity: thus 1t aims to
create an Independent and legally rec
ognfzed laboring class. distinguished
by the marks of Christian and civic
virtues. In the Middle Ages the
masses were known by the exemplin-
cation of such virtues: by their prac-
tice the masses today can also strive
with greater success towards the mo-
raj and religious goal which is the es-
sence of culture. The program Of
teachings and corresponding recon-
mendations will remain one of the
greatest historic innovations of mod.
ern times"
The Exponent Of an Entire System.
The memory of Pope Leo XIII should
be cherished. not by casual refer
ence to the .Encyclical on Labor" but
by an appreciation of his entire social
program. stanislaus v. smolka, q not
ed Polish scholar, quoting Prof. To-
niolo. rightly says that it was the par
ticular great merit Of Pope Leo XIII
that he twas not held back by fear
from unfolding that magnificent pro.
gram of social regeneration, which Is
q wise and timely exposition of old
and well-known principles Of Chris
tian ethics" It is the specific merit
of this Pope that he has bequeathed
to us such a declaration of principles
embracing the whole of society, Of
which declaration the Encyclical aRe-
rum Novarum" forms only q part.
The Labor Question, part of the So
cial Question, can. indeed, be solved
only within the limits of the social
entity; and it is society that must be
|regenerated, yea saved!

The Irishman who makes such a state
