RIGHT OF FREE SPEECH
JUSTICE HOLMES TELLS WHY so.
CIALISTS WERE CONVICTED.

The Supreme Court, on March 3,
rendered a decision sustaining the
conviction of Charles T. Schenck and
Elizabeth Baer, Socialists, of Phila-
delphia, who were charged under the
espionage law with distributing liter
ature to obstruct enlistment. The
constitutional right of free speech
was the basis of their appeal. The
court ruled that the First Amend
ment to the Constitution does not
grant the unlimited right to do and
say whatever a person pleased under
all conditions
Illustrating this point, Justice
Holmes said that while man might
shout fire" all he pleased in the mid
die of deserted forest, he could not
legally do the same thing in crowd
ed theater.
when a nation is at war;" Justice
Holmes declared, many things that
might be said in times of peace are
such a hindrance to its effort that
their utterance will not be endured
so long as men fight, and that no court
could regard them as protected by
any constitutional right"

Foreign PRIESTS
RULES LAID DOWN FOR PRIESTS
LEAVING EUROPE FOR AMER
lCA OR THE PHILlPPINES-cO
DiTioNS TO BE FULFILLED.

A decree has just been issued by the
Sacred Consistorial Congregation lay
ing down rules to be observed by
Bishops of dioceses and by priests in
the case of members of the clergy,
secular and regular, who may wish to
leave Europe for America or the Phil
ippine Islands. AS is we'll known, the
decree of the same Congregation regu-
lated this important matter some few
years ago; but since then the Code of
Canon Law created the necessity for
this to be brought up to date; hence
the present document.
The present decree covers five pages
of the "Acta Apostolicae Sedis." In
drawing up this document the wishes
of the Bishops and of Nuncios and
Apostolic Delegates have been taken
into account by the Holy See.
Before leaving his diocese for Amer
lea or for the Philippines European
priest must have the consent of an
Ordinary to receive him, otherwise his
Bishop may not give him dismissorial
letters. This refers to priests who in
tend living permanently in the New
World. For those who wish to pass
only six months or less there is no
need to notify any Bishop in America
of the fact. In Italy, Spain and Port,l-
gal priests wishing to leave for the
New World must have the permission
Of the Holy See, not of their own
Ordinaries. A just reason must be
forthcoming for leaving, otherwise no
permission can be given.
The care for the priesthood is shown
particularly in its anxiety for those
leaving Europe for period not ex-
ceeding six months. They must have
sufficient money not only for the out
going journey, but also for the return,
and a sum of money must be deposited
for the return journey before leaving
Europe. They must have the neces-
sary permission from their Ordinaries.
The Sacred Consistorial Congrega-
ton asks Bishops in America and the
Philippines to try and lodge emigrant
priests in ecclesiastical houses or hos
pices, or in the house of a parish
priest, instead of sending them to
hotels
Priests who do not observe the regu-
lations Of the decree are ipso facto
suspended a divinis, and if they should
venture to perform ecclesiastical func-
tions under this circumstance, they
incur the penalty of irregularity from
which they can be absolved only by
the Sacred Consistorial Congregation.

Hayes was president of the Cathedral
College Of New York City, the Dio-
cesar Preparatory Seminary. officially
known as st. Joseph's Seminary and
College.
After rendering all these important
services to the Archbishop and the
Archdiocese of New York, Mgr. Hayes
was to receive due recognition. In
1914 it was announced that he was to
be elevated to the episcopacy. On
October 2S, 1914, Mgr Hayes was con-
secrated Titular Bishop of Tagaste
and Auxiliary Bishop OF the Archdio-
cese Of New York City. Following
his conservation Bishop Hayes was
named permanent rector of st. Steph-
ems Church, New York City.
Bishop Hayes continued in both his
episcopal and pastoral duties until
September, 1917, when new call
came to him. The summoning of mil
lions of Americans from civil life to
join the armies which America was
raising placed upon the Church the

the granting of the necessary facul-
ties to these many chaplains the Holy
Father named military Bishop. 1t
was the Auxiliary of New York City
who was chosen, the new Archbishop
Hayes. The past fourteen months
have been crowded ones for Bishop
Hayes. He divided his great diocese,
which comprises the entire United
States, the high seas and parts of
France, Italy, Russia, England, in fact,
every spot on the globe where Amer.
lean troops were stationed, into dis
tricts, each with it's own Vicar Gen

naval stations.

Bishops who drew up the remarkable
program of social reconstruction
which the Catholic War Council an
nounced a few weeks ago. In this
program were agitated the most ad-
vanced and consistent social reforms
that have ever been urged by any
Catholic body.

bishop Hayes will rule is one of The

of New York. Cf which he is Metro
