THEY HAVE.

When we went into the war and
spent billions in order to win. the
boast went round that we were prov
ing to the outside world that we are
not a nation of worshippers of the
almighty dollar" and so we have
been inclined to feel very proud Of
ourselves as self-denying people.
Just now, however. the profiteers of
this country are giving an exhibition
of selfish greed that calls for inter-
vention by the power of the Govern
ment, lest they. stir up serious trou-
BILE by continuing to rob the people
who are at their mercy. Everybody
has to eat and nearly everybody has
to pay rent. Which prompts the
Catholic Tribune to ask have the
people of this so-called democracy
the power to. peacefully shake off
the horde of vampires known as
profiteers?

FAITH DID NOT WAIVER.

In letter to William j. Mckinley.
Supreme Secretary of the knights
of Columbus. Archbishop Patrick J..
Hayes. of New. York City, said. that
his faith" in the abilities of that
Organization during the period OF
war, and their peace time pro-
gramme which calls for the estab-
lishment OF supplementary night
schools throughout the country,
had not been disappointed" Arch
bishop Hayes has been keen OBJ
server OF the accomplishments of
the knights of Columbus and is
understood to be in full sympathy
with their proposed campaign
against Bolshevism and other forms
of Radicalism. The letter said in
part: Having reviewed the re-
ports of the war work of the order.
as we'll as of its other activities,
am very much pleased. I don't
want 10 be considered one of those

beginning / had faith In the Knights
of Columbus which never wavered
and have not been disappointed. :"

SAVING NATIONAL HONOR.

The Senate committees demand
that Shantung be restored to China
will, if approved by a majority of
Senators, do more to make our ma
ton respected the world over than
our proves in the war and the
financial strength our nation has
developed under the stress of the
conflict. Germany's title to Shan
tung was not as good as her title to
Alsace, and yet the latter has been
regarded as Frances particular
spoil of war. Why has China been
treated differently? Suppose for a
moment that England should claim
rich strip of Brazil as her legiti-
mate prey Would the United States
approve of the demand? Certainly
not. Then by what extraordinary
process of reasoning can our rep
resentatives at the conference justi-
fly their approval of the award of
Shantung to Japan? OF course we
understand that the Shantung mat
ter was already arranged by secret
treaty without the knowledge of the
United States. That, however, does
not mean that our delegates to. the
peace conference were bound to
accept the arrangement. In dis
approving of the Shantung award
the Senate Committee have taken a
long step towards saving the ma
tional honor and incidentally doing |
our country the greatest possible
service. The possession of Shan
lung would enable Japan to exploit |
China and eventually enable Japan
to organize the tremendous man.

CHURCH AND MEXICO.

Monsignor Kelley, President of
the Catholic Church Extension
Society, requests the press to state
that, in spite of rumors and even
newspaper interviews to the effect
that President Carranza has or win
abate the persecution laws of
Mexico against the church, no step
has yet been taken to that end. The
Constitution of Queretaro is still in
force, and the special session of the
Mexican Congress, which was to
pass decree for the removal of
religious disabilities. has not even
considered the matter. nor was It
mentioned in the call issued for
that Congress. All the favorable in
Dlications are summed up in the fact
that the Bishops have been per
mitted OF return, but all Of them
are not yet in their dioceses. The
seized religious buildings are still
retained by the Government. In
Sonora only one priest is permitted
for about 5000 people. The relig-
lous question in Mexico is far away
from satisfactory solution at the
present time.

DROP WILL COME.

Opinions differ as to whether a
drop in prices may be expected
soon. Some OF those who have
studied the situation believe that
prices will go even higher before
they fall. Perhaps SO; but recent
indications point to lower levels for
food products soon. At. any rate.
the drop viii come sooner or later.
Those who calculate that the present
scale will continue Indefinitely may
as well take account of the newt
able return to normal prices and
so shape their business affairs as to
be ready for it. The reckless
peculator is due for disaster.

MIGHT START PANIC.

Reports from Washington say
that project of vast proportion to
force down prices on the necessities
of life and hold them in check
pending the restoration of normal
price levels is being considered by
the administrator. The plan Is foi
the Government to establish retail
stores throughout the country,
purchase food, clothing and other
necessities in immense quantities
and retail them to consumers at
cost. A step in this direction was
taken last week. when the War De-
partment announced that on Septem-
Der 25 it would open fourteen retail
stores for the sale of surplus army
clothing and supplies. 1t Is now
proposed to extend this undertaking
by having the Government resume
wholesale purchase on a large scale,
keeping the stores open and continu-
ing to sell at cost to the consumer.
This would be to substitute for
price regulation direct competition by
the Government with retail stores.
It is claimed that it would be a
remedy for profiteering. The use
of the Government as middleman
might be discontinued when the
present crisis has passed. 1t is. a
very fascinating scheme and 1t might
prove effective in lowering prices
somewhat But what of the retail
business to which it might prove
a ruinous competitor? asks the True
Voice. 1t would. likely enough,
drive thousands of small merchants
to ruin and unsettle general business
if the plan were under
taken ON large scale. If 1T were
not then its effect on prices would
scarcely be felt. We are inclined to
think that the Government has
about all it can handle at the
present time without taking up the
retail business. II it be necessary
or advantageous the Government can
fix prices as 1t did on some COM
modities during the war. Better
that than unsettling all business
and perhaps starting a
financial panic by wrecking esta-
blished business concerns

FOR LoUvArN AND LILLE.

On the first or the second Sun
day in September in most dioceses
q collection will be taken up for
the two hard-stricken Catholic Uni
versities OF Louyain and Lille. Why
should we do all we can to make
this collection a striking SUGGEST
Firstly. because 1t has been asked
of the hierarchy by the Pope HIM
self. Secondly. because II would be
unlike America If Cardinal MERCER,
who will be with us fortnight
after the collection takes place. were
not given this mark Of sympathy
Thirdly. because the effort made in
certain quarters to "evangelize"
France can only be COM
bated by Catholic physicians, profess
sors or lawyers graduated from the
two great Catholic universities.

Z The United States gets much the
worst of the allied ruling governing
trade with Germany. The adjust
ment OF the customs matter APP
pears to have given the business
interest of our allies chance for
another coupe against Americans.
Under the latest ruling the United
States must pay four times as much
on German imports as other nations.
Every advantage goes to other
hands, and in such way that the
League of Nations will be impotent
to prevent the discrimination. /.

PROTESTANT VIEW.


Rev. James Grattan Mythen, an
Episcopalian minister, of Christ
Episcopal church, Norfolk, Va, has
been speaking in favor of Irish free
dom, and in discussing the relig-
ious phase of the Irish question
says:
"The so-called religious issue in
ireland Is nothing but a common
political trick by which English
militarism seeks to justify its rule
of might in that country. 1t aims
to SOW dissension among a naturally
tolerant and amiable people, and TO
exaggerate that dissension a
hundredfold in the eyes of Ameri-
cans. Yet the masses of Catholic
Irishmen have repeatedly followed
Protestant leaders like Dean Swift.
Henry Grattan, Wolf Tone, Robert
Emmett and Charles Stewart Parnell,
while on other hand the last election
proved that Protestants give equal
confidence to Catholic leaders in
patriotic matters, as many Sim Fem
candidates who happened to be
Catholics were elected by Ulster
constituencies with large Protestant
populations. The common sense of
Americans refuses longer to be con-
fused by this injection of fictitious
religious. character into what is
purely a fight for national rights
such as we went to war to vindicate.
In the Western States / was
frequently invited to state Ireland's
cause from Protestant pulpits."

believe that the bandit chief was
killed by American flyers. AT any
rate the trail was lost, and as
there was nothing to be gained by
wandering around on Mexican soil
the expedition returned. Thus ends
another incident that at one time
seemed serious enough to be called
another crisis in our relations with
Carranza How many more of these
will follow no one can say. But
some day the real crisis will come.

Senate Committee in Washington
last Saturday. Mr.. Ryan declared
the Irish in this country had rallied
to a man to fight for America in
the great war and said: Three of
my own household went into the

at Chateau Thierry. They fought
for the rights and desires of the
small nationalities.. beg you,

Properly regulated food should
be used in measured quantities and
then our health would be of the
best. Prices would be properly
checked and the. profiteer would go
out of business. Even chronic dis
