ARCHBISHOP SHAW
WINS HIGH REGARD
BORN IN MOBILE, He HAS DE-
VOTED ENTIRE LIFE TO
RELIGION

a a century, plus almost six
years, has elapsed sinse Derember 2,
1853. Universally, it was not a happy
day. Lincoln, in Washington, was
bending every atom Of his rugged in
telligence to the majestic end of pre-
serving the United States of America
intact, while the warning states of
the North and South fought desper-
ately to destroy the said Union.
The Southland lay stricken and
broken beneath the struggle, which
had not yet turned towards its final
conclusion-and there was sorrow and
mourning in numerous Northern
homes, desolated by loss Of their
sons, fathers and brothers, dead and
dying on the battlefields OF the war
mad nation.
Christmas, the great festival of the
Christian religion, whose Leaders gift
was peace to all men, was but thir-
teen days proximo.
Archbishop ShaW's Birth
In these circumstances Of the i'm
mediate world of America, despite the
sorrow and conflict great joy came
into the Southern home. In Mobile,
Alabama, on December IL, 1863, a son
was born to Patrick Shaw and his
young wife, who had been Elizabeth
Smith.
They christened him John William
Shaw, and for the nonce, among this
little home circle, the cooling Of a
baby drowned the roar of cannon; and
love, the eternal builder, worked
steadily to bring forth her great IONS
despite mans attempt to destroy
them.
Perhaps world conditions existing at
the time of his birth were significant
of the future of the infant, for today,
amid a world onc more mad with war
and srtife, the little boy of 1863, to
manhood grown, stands pre-eminently
as the most Rev. John William Shaw,
D. D., Archbishop of the See of New
Orleans, one of the largest and the
second Oldest See of the Catholic re-
ligion in America.
His Early Education
His Eminence, Most Rev. John Will
liam Shaw, d. d., Archbishop Of New
Orleans, began the requirement Of
preliminary education at the Acad-
envy of the Brothers of the Sacred
Heart in his native city of Mobile,
Alabama. Later, he became a student
Of St. Ffnan's Seminary in Haven,
ireland, where he completed the
classics.
In Rome, for six years, at the North
American College. His Eminence
delved through the philosophical and
religious courses. Amid those noble
surroundings, there crystalized within
the mind of the young student his de-
termination to devote his life to the
service of saving mems souls.
He was ordained a priest on May

Serious Situations

New Orleans was visited during
Mayor Behrman's first term of office
by its ancient enemy, the yellow few
er. A serious situation ensued, but
concurrently with the federal govern
ment, the situation was handled with
such skill and Judgment that the dis
ease soon was stamped out and never
has returned, and what is still more
gratifying, never will return.
About four years ago there was a
visitation of the dreaded bubonic
plague. The city authorities received
the most expert and skilful aid from
the United States Health Service and
Mayor Behrman saw that evry require
ment, regulation and order emanating
from the federal authorities in con-
nection with the fight against this dis
ease was carried out promptly and to
the letter, with the result that New
Orleans is not only ~plague-proof today
but rat-proof as well.
In September, 1915, a hurricane, de-
,clared to have been the most violent

His Wide Jurisdiction

On December s, 1918, in the Cathe
dral of St. Louis, New Orleans, the
former Bishop of San Antonio, amid
one of the stateliest throngs ever gath.
cred together in this section, was in.
vested with the office of Archbishop
of eNw Orleans, and His Eminence
the most Rev. John William Shaw, D.
D., assumed the spiritual reins of
government over an area reaching
from Mississippi and part of Florida
on the east to the western border of
Texas and Oklahoma and Arkansas
or the north.
A better conception of the RESPONSE
bilities of the office will be gained
when it is remembered that in New
Orleans alone there is a Catholic pop
ulation aggregating some 250,000 per-
sons; there are 142 priests in New Or
leans, 1913 sisters, 40 churches, AZ
schools, As colleges, academies and
other institutions under the direction
Of Catholic officials, and all this vast
array of individuals and activities are
directly under the guidance of the
Archbishop of New Orleans.
Then, consider the enormous area
comprised in the See of New Orleans,
every part of which is filled with a
prosperous population, numerous in
situations and various activities of
wide scope, ech subdivision looking
to the most Rev. John William Shaw
D. D., Archbishop of New Orleans,
for direction and approval, and it
easily becomes apparent that to sue
cessfully meet such responsibilities re-
quires a man able, of comprehensive
judgment, wide discrimination and
generally equipped personally and by
attainment with the highest attributes
with which to cope with the various
demands made upon his intelligence,
zeal and vigor.
Win Peoples Confidence
These weighty duties seeemd to de-
volve naturally upon His Eminence,
the Most Rev. John William Shaw,
D. D., who in his one years service
in the high office he occupies had al
ready won the confidence of the en-

Among Catholics he is regarded
with especial appreciation and v~ener-
ance, and the public life of the south

It is not easy to set a strsishtawsy
answer to the question. "How much Of
a money stake did The allied nations
put into Russia before the war and
during the war 2"
put this question 10 bankers, flnanc-
ial editors and government officials in
Sweden and Norway They said Russia
IS so big and money matters are so
tangled, nearly everybody knows some
thing and nobody knows anything about
France alone put 81 so0Ooo,0OO into
Russia up TN 1912, according 10 one
Stockholm authority. His figures
showed England 70 have ss73,O00000 up
70 1907. OF which S3ss 100000 was state
loans.
The best that one financial editor
could do for my enlightenment was to
cite a Russian statistician, NJ Ischohan-
ian. He put foreign capital In Russia In
the year 1900 as amounting altogether
10 -t45O00.0 900 rubles. "A ruble IN nor
mai times was worth 80 cents. though
It RANGES around 80 and - cents now
This was split among outside nations
as follows France, 100000 rubles
Germany, 100000 600; England. 3l2,-
900 600: BELGIUM, 253 ono 600; other Eur
opean countries, 200 100000. At the time
these totals were announced they were
generally believed 10 be a good deal |
under the true figures. Also. the out |
side financial development Of Russia |
has seen its LARGEST Increases since the /
foregoing figures were given out They 4
indicate. however, something Of the
immensity Of Russia as a field for the
stakes OF foreisn capital.
Between 1911 and 1913. there were
IA companies founded with Russian
capital. In tho same period. foreigners
csme IN and founded SO companies. So
we see that Just before the big war
,ame along, about one new company
lut OF nine In Russia was started by
outsiders.
It should be noted that the enter
Prise started by foreign capital were
arger than those Of Russia The aver
age share-capital Of the foreign COM
