Catholic Ukrainians.-The Catholic
Ukrainians appear to be having some
difficulties with the Poles, though, as
the Poles are stated to be Catholic
people, it is not easy to understand
their antagonism to a certain section
of clergy. A bulletin published by
the Ukrainian Catholics says that
they have appealed to the Pope for
help. The Ukrainian ambassador to
the Holy See, Count Tyschkewyisch,
has lodged a protest with the Cardin-
al Secretary of State, in which he
calls the attention of the Pope to the
persecution by the Poles of the Uk-
rainian bishops and other ecclesias.
tics in East Galicia.
Found New Ostia City.-The laying
of the cornerstone of the Basilica of
Regina Pacis at New Ostia, near
Rome, was great event. Signor Or
lando attended and in the name of
the Mayor of Rome, declared the new
city founded, as the stone of the bas-
ilica was placed in position All the
civil and military authorities were
present and Father German, head of
the Augustinian Order, to whom the
new church has been entrusted on
account of the many memories of st.
Augustine and his mother which sur
round ,Ostia, preached the sermon
Cardinal Vincenzo Vannutelli spoke
after the Solemn Pontifical Mass. He
thanked the Council of Rome, which
had given the land; the Society of
the immaculate which had collected
so largely for the basilica and the
Augustinians, who had undertaken
it's care with such enthusiasm.
Movies in Rome.-There is in Rome
society under the presidency Of Car
dinal Granite di Belmonte, which has
been founded for supervising moving
pictures, and also to acquire import
ed films. From time to time the eX-
ecutives of the society have held con-
ferences at which they have passed
on new films, and under their aus
pices many exhibitions have been Civ
en- to Catholic audiences. They have
appointed a competent and reliable
person, who acts as censor, and their
judgment is based very largely on his
NV l,of +Lo
method employed by them is effective
They are able not only to combat, but
to eliminate immoral films, both home
made and imported, and they have
been successful in excluding films
that are not desirable apart from
grave moral objections. Something
of the same kind is being done by
the Swiss Catholics, who are inter
ested in the Roman Society.
Father MacNab Exposes Errors
The silent campaign of evil and re
volt, which is going forward in Lon
don, has been unmasked in one Of its
phases by Rev. V. MacNab, a we'll
known Dominican preacher, who has
been exposing the -Malthusians
and now has one of them, lady doc
tor, going for him tooth and nail
This woman actually arraigns the
Catholic Church for teaching that il
is not right to limit the family, and
thus gives her case away. 1t is the
imposition of evil for good, which is
the aim of these people, says Father
MacNab, and that can be seen in 9th
er walks of life. All parental control
is abuse of individual liberty" Ii

it's" poking amongst literary and so
called artistic" garbage is only the
legitimate search for knowledge. The
comfort is that If these nasty people
properly practice what they preach
they will soon be extinct; and the
sooner the better.
JugosIavs at Mass in London.-An
interesting national ceremony took
place recently in London, at West
minister Cathedral, when there was a
Mass of intercession and thanksgiv-
ing for the union of the Croats, Slo-
venes and Serbians. There was a
large congregation, including the Off
cal representatives of Jugoslavs and
Poland. The music included a selec-
ton of ancient Slav melodies and the
national hymn, while the sermon was
preached by Rev. Adrian Fortescue,
an authority on the Eastern Churches,
who said one of the good results of
the war was the resurrection of Ger
tain nationalities, such as the brave
peoples they were met to pray for
that day. Cardinal Bourne received a
telegram from the President of the
new State, expressing gratitude for
his sympathy, and saying the whole
people would be present in spirit on
that occasion
The following Monday a Solemn Re
QUEEN Mass was offered in the Cattle
dral for the repose of the souls of the
French dead of the armies and navies,
when the French ambassador and the
diplomatic corps attended.
