PRIEST AS ENVOY
OF FINLAND is SMALL, CATHO-
Lie INTERESTS ARE ADEQUATE
LY SAFEGUARDED.

The Finnish government has nom
mated Father Christirson. Catholic
priest, to be Finnish ambassador to
the Holy See.
Very shortly after Finland had de-
clarcd its independence the new gov
eminent begged the Pope to open dip
lomatic relations, and to extend his
recognition TO the new Republic,
which the Pope very willingly did.
The result is that owing TO this un-
derstanding between the Holy See
and the Finnish government Catholic
interests in Finland are we'll protect
ed. The number of Catholics in Fin
land is not very great. The center of
Catholic activity is at Helsingfors,
where there is a very fine church
The new ambassador comes from
the city OF Helsingfors. When the
Bolsheyist regime came into power it
took over some of the functions Of
the CZaristic Ministry of Worship,
and laid hands on some of the Cath
olic Church property in Finland,
which it conveyed to Petrograd, where
it still remains The new ambassa-
dor will exert himself to see that con-
tiscated property is returned.
Enthusiastically Finland somes un-
der the jurisdiction of the Apostolic
Vicariate Of Sweden. Mgr. Ratti, the
Nuncio in Warsaw, has received a
mission TO visit all the Catholic par
ishes in Finland.

A WOMAN SPY
PRIEST DISCOVERED WOMAN SPY
IN THE AMERICAN LINES-lN-
CiDENT OF FRENCH FRONT.

One of the most dramatic stories of
how a woman spy working for the
Germans tried to get military infor-
nation in the American lines early in
May, 1918, and sought to gain her
ends by feigning friendship with a
Catholic chaplain, whose quick wit re-
suited in her capture, is now public
The priest was Father Victor Egas,
now serving in the Los Angeles Do
cese.
The woman appeared while the
priest was with the Ninety-frst Divi-
sion at Gondrecourt She was a tall,
distinguished appearing lady who
spoke English eXcellently, and she re-
quested that Father Egas, who was
the Knights of Columbus chaplain
with the soldiers, assist "An Ameri-
can woman from Minnesota to help
our boys in the front lines
Her request was unusual Her ap-
pearance at such a point on the front
lines aroused the suspicious of the
chaplain. He questioned her about
the manner in which she had been
able to get to Golidrecourt which at
that time was under shellfire from
the enemy. Her passports were made
out in French, but she explained that
although she was an American she
had been in France when the war
broke out Father Egas, after she
had asked an abundance of questions
about the plans of the Americans and
their strength on the Gondrecourt
front, dismissed her with a promise
that within a few days he would see
if she could not be allowed to stay
near the front lines. The woman
gave an address to the priest where
she said she had temporary headquar-
ters.
Father Egas Immediately conferred
with the American intelligence men,
and the result was that the woman
was told that her request had been
granted An American soldier was
detailed to escort her about the sec
ton
A week later the soldier who had
taken the woman in charge reported
back to Father Egas in the uniform
of a captain. He warmly congratu-
lated the chaplain The woman was
alleged to have been a most danger
Gus spy who had worked in the
French and British lines and had Sc
cured valuable information She was
an expert in collecting information Of
military nature, and had drafted
plans of artillery emplacements, ma
chine guns, infantry and observation
balloon stations within the American
lines.

HELP FOR VICTIMS
RUSHING AID TO WAR VICTIMS IN
CENTRAL EUROPE - THANKS
FOR COOPERATION FROM TWO
CARDINALS.

Complying with the eXhortation OF
Pope Benedict XIV, the Central-Verein
has inaugurated nationwide cam
paign to relieve the distress among
the people of Germany and Austria
Several prelateS, notably Archbishop
Messmer Of Milwaukee and Archbish.
OPP Glennon of st. Louis, have heart
lily approved of the plan
Archbishop Glennon said that he is
very glad to approve of any efforts
put forward to help the distressed
people of Germany and Austria
While the appeal OF the Central-Vor-
Elm will be directed principally to the
Catholics OF German and Austrian de-
scent, the Archbishop said that he is
hopeful that the other parishes and
peoples will respond in the mission of
charity
Judge Michael F. Girten of Chicago,
President of the Central-Verein, has
communicated with Cardinal Won Hart
mann of Cologne and Cardinal Piffl Of
Vienna concerning the relief work. He
has received the following reply from
Vienna:
Cardinal Piffl begs YOU to accept
his heartfelt thanks and to forward
remittances and relief to the Katho-
Fischer Wohlthatigkeits-Ve Cath
ollie Welfare League) Of Vienna,
Wehringer Guertel 104."
From Cardinal Won Hartmann, Arch
bishop of Cologne, Mr. Girten received
this cablegram, dated October 80:
Hearty thanks for your offer of re-
lief. There is urgent need Of food
of all kinds and clothing. Relief
should be sent to August Baecher &
Sons, Rotterdam. Distribution will be

CHRISTIAN SOCIALISM
MANY PARTIES IN SPAIN TO
FIGHT RED SOCIALISM.

In Spain they are taking UP that
work of Christian Socialism, which is
spreading so much now in all coun-
tries as & counteracting influence to
the Red Socialism. Hitherto Ell
Grup de la Democracia Cristiana" has
been a brilliant headquarters staff
without troops, but they now propose
to start a general campaign for Cath
Ollie Social claims as against the So
cialists, who have already captured
the Official Institute of Social Re-
form. Catholics propose to fight both
Socialism and Conservatism, and they
have at their head Cardinal Guisasola,
Pope has confided the direction of the
Catholic social movement in Spain.
The new group is now definitely con-
stituted, thanks largely to the efforts
|of Prof. S.. Azaur, who holds the
chair of Sociology at the University
of Madrid.
The group contains many illustrious
names of ecclesiastics, university
men, religious and professional and
commercial leaders. 1t is not politi-
cal, but covers Carlists, Mellists and
others, who are opposed politically.
1t is a national circle of study and a
center of culture, which will manifest
itself in social works, which will in
clude doctrinal conferences, meetings
of propaganda, the publication of
books and general lecture work.

CHAPLAIN DIAEEN
RETAINED IN SERVICE AND AS
SIGNED TO FORT WASHING
TON

Chaplain Aloysius Charles Dineen,
at Camp Pike, Ark, has been ordered
to Fort Washington, Maryland, for
duty. Father Dineen is one OF the
youngest of the Catholic chaplains,
not only as to age, but as to length Of
service
Born at New York City, on No
vember 8, 1885, he was educated at
st. Francis Xavier College, and Or
dained priest in 1910.
After his appointment to the army,
Chaplain Dineen has had long serv-
ice overseas, and, before embarking
for the United States, was on duty at
Hospital Center, Rimaucourt. He ar
rived at Camp Merritt, n. j., last Au-
gust and Immediately departed for
Camp Pike, Arkansas.
AS Fort Washington is one of the
most important posts in our Army,
being the nearest coast defense to the
Capital, this is a fine assignment, and
Father Dineen will fill it with credit
and honor.
