AMERICAN PRIESTS DEPART
SECOND GROUP OF FOREIGN MIS-
SlONERS LEAVE MARYkNoLL
FOR CHINA-MoRE ARE PRE-
PAIRING.

A group of American Catholic Mis-
sioners left Maryknoll, N. Y, Sep
TENDER 8 for the Far Eastern mission
field. Last year at this time, the
pioneers, Fathers Price, Walsh, Meyer
and Ford, left for China, where they
have found much sympathy and sur
prisingly good results. The latest re-
Inducements are the Rev. Fathers D.
l.. McShane of Columbus, Ind, VIM.
F. O'Shea of North Hudson, n. j.,
and A. S. Vogel of New York City,
who will sail from San Francisco on
September 81.
These three new missioners were
among the first six recruits at Mary
knoll when the National Foreign Mis-
sion Seminary first opened it's doors
in the fall of 1912. Today at the
Seminary and College there are near
ly one hundred young men who have
followed their lead, all eagerly await
ing their priestly advancement and
assignment to work on the Field Affair."
The mission that the Maryknoll
priests at present occupy is in the
western part of the Province of
KwangTung, of which Bishop de Cue,
BRAND of the Paris Foreign Mission
Society is the head. AS in all the
Catholic missions, the war had
worked great havoc in this province
by depriving it of it's youngest and
strongest priests for service in
France.
During the first six months the new
Maryknoll missioners will devote
themselves to the study of the native
dialect, after which they will be sta.
toned with their more experienced
confreres till about Easter, when they
will probably be sent off on independ
ent missions. In crossing the United
States they visited Buffalo, Chicago
Denver, Los Angeles and San Fran
CISCO.

There are twelve million ne
groes in this country today.
Their ancestors did not come over
with Columbus nor in the May
flower: they were shipped hither
by Dutch traders, together with
cattle and other objects of barter.
Their descendants have multiplied
apace with the white race. After
their shackles had been struck off
by the magnanimous Lincoln, the
Negroes were left to themselves
for the most part, and were al
lowed to drift spiritually, morally,
and socially. The denominations
early awoke to the possibilities of
conversions among this child-like
people. Catholics were tardy IN
the field, but they are now putting
forth renewed efforts for success.
The Catholic Church is the log
zeal place for the Negro. Like
other people he loves the truth. AT
the same time, the rites and cere-
monies, the music and splendor OF
our worship make a special APP
peal to his peculiar nature.
Now in the mission field today
there are 1o7 priests. Two com
munities Of colored nuns have 275
Sisters, while various other re-
ligious orders have about 575 Sis
tiers engaged in the work. There
are about 100000 Catholics. The
Professionals have $4,000 colored
preachers! New parishes are com
ing into existence throughout the
South. Five new parishes are
building today, and eleven more
are to open this month.
The work requires more priests,
more Sisters, and more money. A
Catholic of large or small means
cannot help a more worthy and a
more deserving charity than that
represented by these missions to
the colored people. America has
not given the Negro fair chance
let it not be said that the Catholic
Church has been remlss along the
same lines.

GERMAN CATHOLICS
NEW DIRECT TORY GIVE S
STRENGTH IN SOULS OF THE
CHURCH IN BERLIN.

An official church guide, which has
recently been issued by the Episcopal
chancery, gives some interesting fig
ures regarding Catholic Church life in
Berlin. There are, this guide asserts,
some $50 parish priests in Berlin, dis
tributed among deaneries. They
serve 1870 churches and chapelS,
among which are 40 buildings not
originally churches that are used for
religious worship.
The most fourishing Catholic parish
is that of the Sacred Heart, Chariot
tenburg, with 81, 400 souls. In the st.
Hedwig parish are $4,000 Catholics.
In this parish there are, besides the
great st. HedWig Church, the chapels
of Borromaeans' who attend the st.
Hedwig hospital, the chapels of the
Ursulines, the Grey Sisters, and the
DominicanS, all of which are open to
the public.
In the parish of st. Matthias there
are $4,000 Catholics, who attend the
parish church of St. Matthias, the st.
Matthias chapel, the Church of st.
Elizabeth and the Church of st. Nor
bert. The parish of st. Plus numbers
$4,000 Catholics, the st. Michael par
ish $4,000, and the Sacred Heart par
ish 10000. In the suburbs is the par
ish of st. Clara, New Kolin, with
$4,000 souls; ST. Louis parish, Will
mersdorf, with $4,000 souls; and the
st. Maurice parish, Lichtenberg, with
$4,000 souls The need for new par
ish churches is plainly visible every
where.

No single act of the peace

much uneasiness in the admins
tration ranks in the Senate as the
adoption by the foreign relations
committee of the johnson amend
ment giving the United States six
votes in the League Of Nations as

British empire. That scheme to
give six votes to Great Britain to

According to the London Uni
verse, there has been another
anti-Catholic outbreak in Austria
liza, this time in Victoria, the pre-
text being the "Ne Temere" de-
cree on marriage. The Anglican
Archbishop of Melbourne headed
the attack. The only result has
been that the Premier of Victoria
has taken the opinion of the law
officers, who agree that the Cath
Ollie rule in no way clashes with
civil rights. The government,
adds the Premier, will not inter
fere with matters of religious be-
lief and practice.

The President has taken his
fight for the peace treaty and the
League of Nations to the people.
The Senate thinks the treaty
should be amended. After all, it
is the Senate which exercises con-
stitutional rights over treaties,
not the Executive. To attempt to
override the judgment of rep
resentative body sounds rather
dangerous these days. The Sen
ate has a perfect right to amend
either treaty or league covenant
America is not yet an absolute
