ATTORNEY GENERAL
 STARTS FOOD PROBE
USING MACHINERY OF FOOD AD- MINIST RATION IN PRICE
 VESTIGATION.
TO DEPEND ON THE PUBLIC
Power To Prosecute Profiteers Limit ed-Food Hoarders, However, Can Be Reached Under
 Food Laws.

Washington. -- Attorney General Palmer has started out to ascertain how much of the high cost of living is due to excessive profits by retail CTS
 In d telegram to all state food ad ministrators who worked with Admin istrator Hoover during the war, rle attorney general requested the ap- pointment of fair price committee in each county to investigate what is being charged for retail necessities and if in excess of what the commit tee considers just, to publish a list of fair prices for the guidance of the public.
 There is the extra, legal" means of reaching protiteering which MT Pal mer recently indicated was under con sideration. He has frankly admitted from the start that there was no means to prosecute directly a man guilty of extortion in prices. Retail CTS who are gauging the ultimate con sumer will have to be disciplined by public sentiment, which officials have no doubt is sufficiently alert to the situation now to act vigorously in clear cut cases. Hoarders on the oth- CT hand, can be reached through the war time food laws, or the Sherman act, and MT. Palmer requested the state food administrators to transmit to him any evidence of hoarding or other violations of the law which they might encounter in their work with the promise that the govern ment's law-enforcement machinery would act promptly.

KNIGHTS AND EDUCATION

SCHOLARSHIPS AND MEDALS.

Some years ago the Knights of Co.
lumbus raised $550,000 to help endoW
the Catholic University at Washing
ton, D. G. They also established a
chair of American History there.
By their endowment of this univer-
sity the Knights secured the privilege
of sending fifty young men every year
to take postgraduate courses in arts,
philosophy, engineering, etc. Already
the number of graduates firm this en-
doWment goes over the $50 mark, with
the ranks increasing every year, so
that a small army Of wellequipped
men is being placed at the nations
service by the Knights of Columbus.
Throughout the country State Coun-
ellis of the K. of G. maintain scholar,

HAWKER AND ICARUS.

Greek mythology tells how Dae
dalus fashioned wings for himself
and his son Icarus. Together
they attempted to fly across the
sea. The son, exulting in his
career, met with an accident and
plunged into the sea, while the
father navigated the air in safety.
What a striking counterpart we
have to the above in the science
Of aeronautics during the past
few weeks. Icarus showed his in
discretion by soaring too near the
sun which melted his wings, and
the youth tumbled into the sea.
Hawker first tumbled into the sea,
and displayed his indiscretion
afterwards, by making light of
the successful exploit Of the
American Daedalus who arrived
safely. Hawker and his ancient
prototype are to be commended
for their bravery, but not for
their thoughtlessness.
To America must go the palm

SIGNS OF GROWTH.

One of the interesting phases Of
Catholicity at the present day in
America is the vigorous growth
that is apparent on every hand.
The great bulWarks Of the Church
schools, churches, institutions
are multiplying in every corner
of the country, and give promise
Of fruitful results in this land
where religion is untrammeled in
it's normal development.
Keeping pace with the growth
Of our institutions is the fervent
desire to raise them to the very
highest standard of efficiency.
The nation at large is crying aloud
for higher standards in every
branch Of endeavor; it will not be
satisfied with mediocrity, with
which the world is already sur
feited. Our traditions alone, set
ting aside other considerations,
cannot permit inferiority in any
field. The Church in past ages,
through her inspiration and her
encouragement, led the profound
est minds in every walk Of life to
the very pinnacle Of noble attain
ment. Hence it is that poetry,
painting, sculpture, philosophy
and science reached the heights
borne upon the wings Of religious
thought.
So, at the present day it be-
hooves that our institutions fall
not below the lofty standard of
achievement that made the
Church Of the middle ages the
despair of subsequent epochs
Dante, Raphael, Angelo, Aquinas,
Da Vinci, all showed the remark
able result Of a combination OF
genius and religion. Hence, we
have tradition to maintain, and
our institutions must pattern their
development along those lines
that shun mediocrity and aim at
perfection.

umphs. She invented the first
steamboat; then, through the
genius of the Irish-American Hol-
land, she showed the world the
first submarine, which the Ger
mans improved to such an extent
that they crossed the ocean in the
underwater craft; she then de-
vised the airplane, which was
first driven by one Of her sons at
tremendous speed through the air
from continent to continent. We
may add that she also reached
Europe by another modern inven-
ton, the cable. Thus has Amer
lea repaid the old world for hav-
ing been discovered by Europeans.
That other nations follow in her
wake, use her inventions, and
span the oceans, is but a tribute
to the triumph of American
genius.

studiously avoided in the League
draft. So the Catholic majority
counts for nothing at present.

William T. Ellis writes: Mod
ern military science has doomed
the deserts power to harass and
hurt civilization. The oasis is not
a refuge from the airplane. Dash
ing troops of fearless Arabian
horsemen, however great their
numbers, cannot prevail against
the armored automobile. lsh-
mael's ancient influence has been
shattered. This is one Of the great
and historic changes which has
come to pass within five years, all
unnoticed by the world at large.
Most of the romance Of the desert
has now disappeared. The
Bedouin are no longer menace
to civilization. Their sway OF i'm
memorial centuries has been
broken. What Persia's phalanxes,
Alexander armies, and Rome s
legions could not do has been
wrought, almost without com
ment, by the airplane and the mo-
tor car.

POPE APPOINTS FATHER O'CON-
NOR, MEMBER OF CARMELlTE
ORDER, A DOMESTIC PRELATE.

Pope Benedict has conferred an I'M
usual honor on the Very Rev. Denis
f. OConnor, prior of Our Lady of the
Scapular of Mount Carmel Church of
New York City, by appointing him a
domestic prelate with the title of
Right Reverend Monsignor.
1t is seldom that the pope appoints
a member of religious order to the
high office of domestic prelate, and
there are few such prelates among
the American hierarchy.
Mgr. O'Connor is a member of the
Order of Carmelite Fathers He is 43
years old and he has been rector of
the Mount Carmel Church for about
six years. He is also in charge of
the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament
connected with Bellevue hospital
which he visits daily. Owing to his
ability to converse in seven languages
Mgr. O'Connor is enabled to admin
lister to the spiritual needs of Catho
lies of many nationalities, a most es
sential requirement for a priest at
tending patients in Bellevue.

THE new SHRINE
NON-CATHOLlCS PROMISE HELP
FOR CAPITAL PROJECT.

The announcement of the Right
Reverend Bishop Shahan, rector of
the Catholic University, of the project
to erect at the Capital a national
shrine of the Immaculate Conception
to commemorate the victory accorded
American arms, has already met with
a wide response. The contributions
that have been made and the letters
that have been written attest the in
terest taken in it by the people of the
United States, and give promise that
the great task will be brought to sue
cessful completion.
1t is a noteworthy fact that this
interest is not confined to Catholics.
From them it is expected the bulk of
contributions will come, but in the
flood of mail that is beginning to pour
into the office of the Rev. Bernard A.
McKenna of the Catholic University,
who is in immediate charge of the
project, are many communications
from nom Catholics, commencing the
enterprise and giving assurance of
support.

CHARITIES CONFERENCE
ADMlRER OF DE BIS ELECTED
NT-CONFERENCE HAS
NEW NAME-CATHOLIC WORK
ERS PRESENT.

The proceedings of the Forty-sixth
Annual Conference of Social Work,
formerly the National Conference of
Charities and Corrections, which met
in Atlantic City recently, were
marked by sharp differences in view
between the younger or radical ele-
ment of the conference and the more
The conservative group made an ear
nest protest against the selection, as
president, of Owen r. Lovejoy, who
for many years has been active on
the National Child Labor Committee
The grounds Of opposition to him were
that he had gone out of his way to
laud Eugene V. Debs, who was found
guilty of interference with the prose-
cution of the war. The protest was
unsuccessful and Mr. Lovejoy's cleo
ton stands.
Mr.. Lovejoy is one of the contribu-
tors to Mrs. Sanger's Birth Control
Review.
Another protest, which was success
full, was made against placing on one
Of the committees the name Of Roger
Baldwin, who refused to obey the draft
law and is paying the penalty for his
unpatriOtic views.
The membership of the conference
this year was composed largely of
young women just out of college or
training school, many of them having
only a few months experience in Red
Cross or other war work, and this
group supported the radical wing
progressive" they call it, on every
occasion.
During the conference group
meeting of the Catholic delegates in
attendance was called by Rev. DR.
| O'Grady, Of the Catholic University
of America, to discuss matters in
which they as Catholics had a com
mon interest 1t was a surprise tC
find that over two hundred Catholic
lay delegates were in attendance and
about a dozen priests.

GRATITUDE OF POLES
DELEGATION WATTS ON HOLY
FAT n ER-POLAND HAS
BRIGHT FUTURE.

With the gratitude of a generous
minded people the Poles have sent to
Rome a delegation composed of mem
bers of the oldest families in the
country, headed by the Right Rev.
Monsignor Sapieha, Bishop of Ora
COW, to thank His Holiness Benedict
XIV for the interest which he has
shown in the welfare of Poland and
for the love he has poured out upon
her efforts for liberty.
1t will be remembered the first
pledge of his hearty friendship which
Pope Benedict gave to free Poland
few months ago was to write to the
Archbishop of Warsaw assuring His
Grace of seat in the Sacred College
Of Cardinals as a compliment to Po-
land and as a reward for his services,
spiritual and temporal, to the Polish
people.
Meanwhile Monsignor Ratti, Papal
Visitor to Poland, is traversing the
whole country investigating, arrang
ing, and making preparations for the
glorious future of the Church in ever
faithful Poland.
