CONFER ON STRIKE TODAY
New England Telephone Strike Lead
erS in Talk.

Boston, April 18.-Leaders of the
striking telephone workers conferred
today regarding Postmaster General
Burleson's plan for breaking the dead
lock that has arisen in connection
with their demands for wage increases
and the privilege of collective bar
gaining. Mr.. Rurleson yesterday sent
word to the operators committee that
as they had failed to adopt his sugges-
ton that they place their proposed
wage scale before the general man
ager of the company, William r.
Driver, Jr., he (Mr. Burleson) had
decided to take the initiative in their
behalf and had submitted their de-
mand to Mr.. Driver
Members of the operators commit
tee asserted that as the strike of
young women which started Tuesday
had spread until it involved about 12.-
goo male employees in addition to the
5000 operators, conferences now
must be with committee of the New
England joint council of electrical
workers. The council, which was said
to represent some sixty unions in New
England, was to make q definite an
nouncement of its position during the
day.
In transmitting the statement of the
postmaster. general to the union lead
ers Mr.. Driver asked that the strikers
representatives meet him at an early
hour for preliminary discussion.

WITH AID TO FRANCE

Paris, April 1s.-The Temps, dis
cussing Premier Lloyd Georges
speech before parliament, processes to
see in it assurance that Great Britain
and the United States would aid
tackled by Germany.
Quoting the premier's reference to
guarantees. the Temps said:
What in Lloyd Georges opinion is
the stipulation giving France this Sc
curity? Certainly not annexation, of
territory; France is not demanding an
nexations. Not military occupation;
this is but temporary. Not the So
ciety of nations; because the British
opposed both of Frances amendments
regarding control of armaments and
an international military staff. What
dispositions can other nations assure
which would inspire France with a
feeling of security? There is only one
answer, it is that Great B4itain and
the United States agree to aid France
in the event she is attacked again by
Germany. Thos his discourse said
nothing else, it would be singulayly
enlightening. One can even say all
other information paled btfore it,
Other Paris newspapers, however,
took opposite views, contending that

concerned Each paper in fact had

When Senator Arthur Capper goes TO

Many large industries have been

FIX DRY MEASURE.
Congress Expected To Take
Action in the Matter.
Will Decide Who Is To Enforce
the Measures.

Washington. April 18.-Drys are re-
lying on congress. to settle at one
stroke the question of who will enforce
both war time and constitutional pro-
hibition, E. c. Dinwiddie, head of the
Anti-saloon League of America, an
,nounced today.
Dinwiddie said his organization
very early in the coming session would
urge enactment of a bill to put en-
forcement of both brands of prohibit
ton in the hands of the commissioner
of internal revenue.
THE debate as to who will enforce
prohibition has been raised by the
opposition in desperation said Din
widdie- Commissioner Roper's state
ment that he had not power to COM
pletely enforce war time prohibition
was perfectly fair and truthful, but il
has been considerably twisted.
Il am confident that congress will
provide amply for prohibition enforce

One Of the most substantial
pleasures i'll life is that which
comes from the association with
men of worth: men of character,
ability, achievement, irrespective
of their financial condition. When
in the company Of such men one
prescinds from the thought Of
their wealth or poverty: it is the
mind and the heart which count.
Nothing is more pitifully ridicu-
lous than the upstart newly-rich,
unless it be the arrogant poor.
The spirit of the present age
seems to be to gauge a man ac-
cordlng to his rating in Brad
street. The social barometer reg
listers high or low according to
the amount Of gold in the imme-
date atmosphere. In the olden
days men of intellect and worth
came together on the same level
Of mental equality. Some of the
most brilliant minds of the ages
could not cash a thousand dollar
check at any bank. And yet the
world revels in the productions OF
their genius.
A man who measures his own
position by the number of his
wealthy friends or his private for
tune is a man to be pitied: he has
lost the best in life. Money is not
an objection when accompanied
by worth: devoid Of personal at
tainments or Of character in its
possessor,. money is but the sheen
on the crested wave, the phosphor-
escent glow on the midnight deep,
the shimmering mirage dancing
on the hot sands Of the trackless
desert: a fetid corpse after the
spirit of life has fled.

In the speeches Of Cardinal
MERCER in this country, available
so far, a fine spirit of self-restraint
regarding Belgium and the war is
noticeable, says the Echo. The
speaker confines himself to his
subject, viz. thanks to the Ameri-
can people for our generous help.
He carefully avoids any reference
to the mooted and disturbing ques-
tons, now happily buried in OBJ
livion and overshadowed by the
existing tremendous questions of
the social reconstruction of the
world. The simplicity and genuine
feeling Of the Cardinals words
are evident. His visit serves to
bring many thousands of our fell
low-citizens nearer to the Church
and its eminently great power III
the problems confronting us at
every turn.

OUR TEACHERS COMPLAIN.

For the past month there has
been general complaint rising
from our Catholic schools and col
leges throughout the land. Every
where the word has gone forth :
Overcrowded, no accommodations,
must place you on the waiting list.
This condition has been expert
enced before by a few Of our edu-
cational institutions, but this
year the complaint is well nigh
universal. A soothing and molli-
flying feature of the unpleasant
conditions, however, is found in
the fact that the very lack of ac-
commodations is proof that the
schools themselves have finally
launched out into an era of pros
perity and success.
During the last decade or two
Catholic educators, and priests III
particular, have put forth every
effort to impress upon our people
the Importance of a Catholic edu-
cation and training for their chill
dren. Many arguments were ad,
duced to prove the propriety OF
this thing. In spite of all, how,
ever, the Catholic schools were not
patronized so we'll as they de,
served. Whatever may be the
reason this year, the fact remains
that the complaint Of our teach
ers is the surest and the best sigr
that our people are alive to their
responsibility in this matter, and
that they are prepared to do THEN
share.
While the grade schools are re
porting unprecedented increase IL
enrolment, it is well also to re.
mind Catholics that the colleges
and academies, in general, are not
receiving as large patronage as
they deserve. While all report
healthy growth, there is still room
for clearer vision on the part OF
our people, a vision that vii
cause them to confide their sons
and daughters to those institu
tons where not only catechism il
taught, but where correct ideas
in history, science and literature
are impaired without the tinge Of
faint of materialistic vagaries anC

A PRINCE OF THE CHURCH

During the past century or more
many distinguished personages
have visited this country. There
have been representatives Of
Church and State, Of the world Of
science and literature, warriors,
experts and explorers. 1t would
seem, however, that never has any
one foreign visitor aroused more
sincere and widespread welcome
than has the venerable Primate Of
Belgium, Cardinal MERCER. All
persons and classes, irrespective
of religious or political affiliations,
are seeking to do him honor, not
so much as churchman as a man
of consllmmate courage and love
of the ri ght, even when that love
brought down upon him the fury
Of the invader.
The tour Of the great prelatc
throughout the eastern part Of
our country has been a yeritabie
triumph. State and municipal
officials vie with one another in
showing him Difference and honor
Great universities, like Yale
Princeton. New York, and others
have conferred upon him then
choicest academic honors. Prot
estants and Jews have mingled
with Catholics in offering their
homage to one who upheld his
people in their hours of bitterest
sorrow. In a word, America has
risen to the occasion in splendid
manner, and has proven to the
Prince of the Church that she
prizes courage and fortitude, even
in stranger, more than riches and
power.
The Cardinal has won all by
his graciousness and the spirit OF
restraint that has characterized
his utterances. Verify is he I
worthy son Of the Catholic Church

and glory to the world Of intellect
and truth which he so ably repre-

CHINESE MISSIONS
BISHOP GUEBKiANT APPOINTED
APOSTOLIC VISITOR IN FAR
EAST.

News has been received of the ap.
pointment by the Holy See of a Wis.,
itor to the missions in China. He is
the Right Rev. B. de Guebriant, Vicar
Apostolic of Canton, who has been
chosen for the honor. There are in
China forty-eight Vicariates Apostolic,
one Prefecture Apostolic and one
Mission, and Bishop de Guebriant is
expected to make a thorough vista
ton of every one of them, after which
he will report to the Holy See. Before
undertaking this long and difficult
work, Bishop de Guebriant will call
meeting of all the heads of mis-
sions at Shanghai to prepare the pro-
gram of his visit.
Bishop de Guebriant is a Partisan by
birth and belongs to noble family of
Brittany. After studying at the Sem
mary of st. Sulpice he joined the So
ciety for Foreign Missions of Paris
and arrived in China thirty-four years
ago. He was appointed Vicar Apos-
tolic of Kien-Tchang in 1910, and
transferred to the more important vi
cariate of Canton in 1916. Bishop de
Guebriant is one of the ablest prelates
of the Church Hierarchy, and there
is no doubt that his visit will have
the happiest consequences for the
progress of the Chinese missions
