JEWS AND CHRISTIANS
LONDON PAPER REBUkES JEWS
FOR FALSE ACCUSATIONS.

There have been two attacks on
Allied countries by certain religious
interests in London recently, and one
has been sharply rebuked by the
Times" which is no friend to Cath
olicism, though it has taken up the
cause of a Catholic nation. The Jews
in England, and especially London,
have been holding days of mourning
for their brethren massacred in the
pogroms in Poland. The Times"
takes exception to the widespread
Jewish propaganda to prove that
these pogroms are Christian acts
against the Jews as such on account
of their religion.
The paper says that such an accu-
sation is false and is insulting to all
Christians, that what persecution
there is in Poland, is due to political
and economic causes, and that the
Jews themselves should help to over
come it by extending to the revived
state that financial help which it
needs. In fact, where Jews are killed
it is generally the popular revenge
for years of extortion and usury
The times" also reminds the Jews
that it is they who, as leaders of the
Bolsheviks, are massacring Chris
tians wholesale. The other matter is
one for Protestants.

MISSION SEMINARY
MARYkNOLL TO ERECT TWO
MORE BUILDINGS.

The American Seminary for For
eign Missions is erecting two more
permanent buildings. One, an annex
to the present Field Afar" Office, will
be built at Maryknoll on-Hudson; the
other, the first section of the new
Venard Apostolic College, is being con-
structed at Clark's Green, Pennsyl-
vania, where this Maryknoll prepare
tory had quarters for seven years.
For the present these buildings, it
is said, will meet the needs of the rap
idly developing work of the Catholic
Foreign Missionary Society, but in
another year the permanent seminary
at Maryknoll must be begun. 1t will
soon be necessary also, according to
the authorities, to provide larger
quarters for the Maryknoll Sisterhood,
the foreign mission Sisters of st.
Dominic, who at present attend to the
household and clerical duties at Mary
knoll and the Venard, but who will
eventually send some of their men,
bers to the mission fields.

China
Father Doherty is a member of the

S. A., said of him:
II knew Chaplain Doherty in the
Philippines, where his bold, energetic
work with wounded men on the firing
line first brought him to my attention,
and when vacancy occurred in my
regiment ed cavalry got him trans
ferred thereto, where he has endeared
himself to enlisted men and officers
alike by his energetic solitude for
their temporal as well as spiritual
welfare. l consider him the most
competent, hard working, energetic
and successful chaplain l have ever

HEATHENS AND HEATHENS.

Various denominations have in
augurated campaigns for numer-
Gus funds to be devoted to foreign
missionary work. A tremendous
assault is to be made upon the
citadels Of heathendom situated in
far away lands. The benighted
Chinese, the crafty Japs, and the
denizens in out-of- the-way places
Of the world are to be reached
through the efficacy of American
dollars. Millions upon millions Of
dollars are to be spent in the near
future in order to bring the light
of the gospel to the peoples who
sit in the shadow and in darkness.
Catholics are struggling along
and giving with little generosity,
compared to Protestants, towards
the foreign missions. Somehow or
other it would seem that a Catho-
lie missionary can make a dollar
serve many more purposes than
Coll VIC IOu-CdIuOllC lCll SlOIiS
worker. At the same time our
churches at home are filled to over
flowing Sunday after Sunday.
Every diocese is trying to meet
the need of new buildings to ac-
commodate the ever-increasing
numbers of Catholics in this coun-
try.
The denominations, on the other
hand, are complaining bitterly of
the loss of members and Of the
necessity of closing their churches
in many places. Even a Baptist
clergyman in New York recently
declared that the Protestant EX-
tension Society should be called
the "Church Extinction Society,"
as it was "burying churches and
merging them with other churches
so rapidly.' From which it would
appear strange that the heathens
at home should be so Woefully neg
lected while the heathens abroad
make so strong an appeal upon the
imagination and the purse.
