DIOCESAN ORGANIZATION

A most vital question in these days
is where and how young women who
leave home in order to secure work,
shall be housed. A plan has been
worked out in Pittsburg known as the
Room Registry, which is an incor-
porated institution created and sus-
tanned by six of the leading social and
religious organizations of Pittsburg.
The first years work has just been
completed and over seven hundred
persons have applied for rooms and
received sympathetic directions and
advice. Many happy connections have
been made between lonely young peo-
pie and the friendly householder AS
Chairman for the Girls Activities of

Sleepy Eye: Announcement has
been made by Rev. James Klein that
plans are under way for the erection
of new home for the Sisters of ST.
Mary, Help of Christians parish this
summer This will fill a want that
has long been recognized, and will
also provide for more Sisters. The
site now occupied by the old church
will be used for building the new
Sisters Home. The church building
will be torn down and any material
that will answer the purpose will be
used in the new building. Besides the
ten Sisters of St. Francis now at
Sleepy Eye, at least two more will be
added to the staff later in the year,

Swinging Around the Circle
LFrom the New York TrIbune.l

The President left Washington last
night on stumping tour which is TO
occupy him for the next thirty days, to
the necessary neglect Of large volume
Of otherwise pressing public business.
The object Of the tour is to create
state OF public sentiment, or a show Of
public sentiment, that wsll coerce the
Senate, engaged in the performance Of
its constitutional duties, into surrender
ing its own judgment and into obeylng
a mandate which the President has
seen ut to address to 1t. This mandate
Is OF such a nature that its accept
ance would practically destroy the Sem
ate's independence as part Of the treaty
making power and centre in the execu-
tive department exclusive control over
foreign relations.
Public thought has been so much en-
gagged by arguments for and against
particular features OF the treaty and
the so-called covenant that due atten-
tion has not been given TO the consti-
tutional subversion for which the Pres
ldent has unfaggngly labored. He has
been inconsistent as to many things,
but without variableness or shadow
Of turning a consistency worthy Of
better cause he has worked to change
in an essential way the form of our
government. He has not wavered in
his efforts TO atrophy the powers of
Congress and to create a Presidency
which shall have no responsibility ex-
cept to an inchoate and unorganized
public opinion.
There is no apparent recognition Of
the necessity that if public opinion is
TO be influential it shall have an in
stltuliOnal trumpet through which to
speak. The President would seemingly
rule subject TO no check except his
own idea of what the public wishes.
The importance OF the relations OF
this nation to other nations is not to
be minlmized. Moreover. it IS gen.
orally perceived that whatever this re-
laiion is to be il must not imply the
abandonment of future national lib
erty of action. As to this, conviction is
now well matured. and nothing said
by any one is likely to unsettle. it.
Those who have struggled to Ameri-
canize the covenant are in sight of vic
tory.
But interest may well attach to the

issue Of why a tour at ALL Is It TO
become the practice OF Presidents not
merely to make recommendations TO
the legislative branch, but to use their
time and the public funds to compel
Congress to accept the recommenda-
tions without change?
We have a governmental system
wherein democracy seeks to guard it.
self against mistakes by a fore-ordered
perlodicity of submission to popular
Judgment. We have not been satisfied
with having one agent, but have ap-
pointed two, in the belief that one
would be a counterpoise to the other.
Is singleness Of authority to be intro
duced, whereas the Constitution delib-
erately provides for duality? May a
President properly embark on course
which implies that Congress is merely
TO register his will ana not express
one Of It's own?
Such are the deep questions raised
by the tour, quite aside from anything
said during its prosecution. But one
other President ever sought to do what
the President is now doing, and that
President was Andrew Johnson, OF not
altogether happy memory.
