impartiality and nothing arbitrary
in the fixing of the parochial quotas.
1t has been announced from the Ma
tional Headquarters of the Nation
Wide Campaign that. what is re-
ceived from the General Church will
be proportioned to what is contrib
uted from here, to objects outside
this Diocese.
The quotas present the share of
each Parish and Mission in the ap-
portionment for each of the three
years laid upon this Diocese by the
National Organization of the Ma
tion-Wide Campaign, for objects out
side the Diocese, such as Missions,
Religious Education and Social Ser

grant all the Diocesan askings, this
Diocese shall receive back as Do

a Diocese to give to objects out
side the Diocese.
Margaret College is the Diocesan
Institute as Versailles, Kentucky, for

Diocese has asked for $4,000 from
the General Church for the develop
ment of Margaret College, with the
understanding that the Diocese
would raise $4,000 for Margaret
College each year for three years.
Thus at the end of the three-year
period, Margaret College will alto

asked that $4,000 copies OF It be print

gested that the same number of cop

printed and this was agreed to along
with Senator Lodges. motion. II was
then discovered that the law limits
appropriations for such printing to
$500. The committee on printing
therefore was hastily called and was
expected at once to authorize the
printing of the $4,000 copies.
Senatorial comment on the Presi-
dents speech was brief but pointed.

Hitchcock. Administrator leader.

ing statement on the League said
Senator Gerry, Democrat, OF Rhode

The President explained in the
clearest fashion how the League of

the Senate chamber.
s. r. o. signs went up long before
Wilson and his party arrived. Spec
tators with gallery cards began lining
up at . o'clock, though doors were not
opened until later. Then they rushed
in and oiled all seats in a few min-
utes. Below on the Senate noor

A few knowing visitors discovered
they could get into the Senate wing
by way OF the tunnel running from
the Senate office Building. but when
guards discovered them coming up on

summarily cut of.
Every seat in the press gallery was

Among the crowds in the rain out
side the Capitol doors were many
children and aged women. Soldiers
with overseas insignias were sprinldCd
literally through the corridors.
Crowds were cheerfully scrutinizing
all passers, as the privileged visitors
fled in one by one.

heads the Senate roll call. was the
