OKLAHOMA CROP REPORT

The crop report for Oklahoma is
used by the bureau Of crop estimates
in cooperation with the state board
Of agriculture indicates substan
tial improvement in the condition
OF wheat over the estimate of April
LIST. The condition OF the crop is
reported at n per cent forecasting
Ia production for the state Of ap-
proximately 27000,000 bushels after
allowing for an abandoned acreage
of 10 per cent, or upwards of 300, 600
acres. The average yearly wheat
production in Oklahoma for the last
ten years is 30,972 600 bushels, in
dicating that the 1920 crop will pro.
bably be somewhat less than this
average. Had the plowing and SOW
ing season last year not been so
unfaYorable, in all probability the
acreage this year would have been
considerably greater, as it is. the
acreage harvested will be smaller
than any since 1913 when 1,75O,O00
acres were cut for grain. This,
however, is an increase of over so
per cent in seven years. The high
winds in March and April were un-
usually harmful this year principal
ly on account of the high veloci-
ties, la March, there We're ten days
when rthe wind blew 40 miles or
more per hour, more days, and
greater wind movement for tins
month than any March in ten years.
The total wind movement in April
was almost as great as in any Ap-
ril in the past decade and was eX
ceeded only in 1911 in the number
OF days OF extreme high winds. 1t
Is interesting to note that in ten
years, only once has the condition
of wheat failed to improve during
April and that in 1913 which holds
the record for the period in wind
movement. N

NO BELGIAN STUDENT TO CATH.
OLIc COLLEGE.

When the Belgium Relief Commits
sion wound up it's business, 1t found
itself with balance of $35,000.OOO
on hand. Part of this was turned over
to Belgian universities and the rest
was set aside ~as an educational en-
dowment for Belgian students. One
feature of the endowment is to pro-
vide for the education of twenty-four
Belgian graduate-students in American
universities, and a like number of
American students in Belgian univer-
stiles.
The twenty-four Belgians have ar
rived in the country and have been
assigned to the following institutions.
Columbia, Harvard, Yale, Princeton,
Cornell, Johns Hopkins, Pennsylva-
mia, Massachusetts, Technology, Chi
cago, California and Stanford,
The incident provokes a few per-
tinent queries from The Western
Waterman. First, we would like TO
know IL any of these students ex-
pressed preference for a Catholic
school. If they did, why was not the
wish gratifed? Was 1t because the
education section Of the Welfare
Council was not on the job? Or was
ut because the graduate part OF our
educational system Is practically non
! existent?

CHRISTIAN ATMOSPHERE REQUiR-

DISTORTED HISTORY AND LIT

Through the course of centuries
even as now the Church has been the
unfailing and generous patron of
higher culture, notes the Queens
Work. The very fact that all truth of
whatsoever sort is manifestation of
God and so eontributary to His glory,
and the fact that all culture of we'll
ordered kind is natural approach of
man to God-these facts alone impel
and always have impelled the Church
to rejoice and labor for the spread
of truth and the development of Gull
ture.
But in addition to this instructive
patronage of letters and culture mod
ern conditions of thought have Gre
ated for the Church present-time
motive of even more sacred and inn
perative urgency for having institu-
tions of higher learning under her own
supervision and for urging upon Chris
tian parents and Christian students
the sacred duty of patronizing these
institutions.
History, science and literature have
been violently laid hold of by the en-
emies of truth and the proponents Of
every kind of mental and moral ex

The following letter from Bishop
Gallagher was read in the Churches
of the Diocese on recent Sunday in
reference to the <antiparish school
amendment:
"The oral arguments on the school
amendment will not be heard until
October 5, 1929, and no decision can
be looked for before the elapse Of ten
days-about October Is. It would be
impossible to prepare to distribute lit
erature to inform the voters and prop
erly organize the Diocese for an cleo
ton campaign in the remaining two
weeks. If the case. were decided on
its merits as to whether this proposed
amendment violates the Federal Con-
stitution, there is scarcely room for
doubt but that the decision would pro
tect our schools.
But the first question before the
Supreme Court is a technicality-
whether the judicial power can ex.
anime proposed legislation and decree
it constitutional or unconstitutional, OF
must the court wait until law is
actually enacted before passing on its
validity. If the Supreme Court should
decide that it has no authority at this
particular stage of legislation to take
up the real merits of the case, the
proposed amendment will 60 on the
ballot, and as the attitude of the Su
preme Court on this point is uncer
tain, ordinary prudence dictates that
we must be prepared" (The court has
just favored the amendment on the
November ballot.)
Where the very existence of oul
schools is at stake, where the Catholic
education and the eternal salvation Of
future generations is in jeopardy, We
can take no chances. We must pre-
pare with the same care and thorough
ness as if we were certain that the
decision on the technical issue RAISED
would be against us. Besides appeals
through the papers, the billboards ant

This will require work, hard worl
on the part of our people and alst
heavy expenditures. From $4,000 t,

task of defending our religious schools
The bill for literature alone, which
never before was so expensive, will
reach $4,000 to $4,000. We must no
imagine that our efforts will be use

often university professors of we'll

they outspokenly oppose the most

COST OF INTOLERANCE
JBlGoTRY WOULD TEAR DOWN
STARS AND STRIPES OF
FREEDOM.

At a very conservative estimate
there are at least 100000 children in
the Catholic schools of Michigan.
Allowing an average of 40 children
to room, $500 school rooms are oc-
cupied by these children.
Present building costs average $16,.
900 per room, in the building Of a
school; $500 rooms would cost $40,-
100000
The cost CT equipment would about
equal the cost of building the schools.
The United States Bureau of Edu-
cation is authority for the statement
that it costs $47.66 per year to edu-
cate a child in the public schools Of
Michigan. 1t would therefore cost the
people Of Michigan $4,766.000 per year
to educate the children now enrolled
in the Catholic schools Of this state.
Provided that Michigan was willing
to spend this vast sum, to the end
that the religious schools should be
destroyed, where would the teachers
be found to care for this small army
of pupils? What would be the cost
in salaries, to the state?

PAY OF CATHOLIC TEACHERS

Under the caption, "a Living Wage
for Our Sisters" America, in a recent
issue, has a strong editorial on per-
ennial timely subject. The average
annual salary of the Sisters. whose
excellent teaching and admirable con-
duct of our schools are our pride and
our boast, is $3.50, Of about eighty-two
cents day! This is about one-fifth
of the janitor's salary. Surely. no one
can say we have not helped them to
keep their vow of poverty, or that we
have greatly interfered with Provi-
dence's care of them. THE Sisters
themselves. may not even think of
these things, but it is high time the
Catholic public should awake to a
sense of it's obligations in their regard.
Justice, not charity, demands that the
Sisters be adequately paid for their
services, so far as that can be .reck-
oned in dollars and cents.
As the editor of America says: 1.-THE
Sisters do not ask for motor cars or
sumptuous meals, or purple and fine
linen, or week-ends at the beach, or

THE PRINCIPLE RECOGNIZED
NEED OF RELIGIOUS INSTRUc-
TON IN SCHOOL sun DAY
SCHOOL is NOT SUFFICIENT,

There is steadily growing convic-
ton among thinking men that the
prevalent social unrest, which is char
acterized by Juvenile crime, tandem
bigamy, and ever-recurring industrial
troubles, is mainly due to the in.
sufficient religious training of the
American system of education. Cler-
gymen and educationists are saying
that the fear of the Lord is the be-
ginning of wisdom; that, without that
salutary fear, man-made laws lose
much of their sanction; that that
salutary fear should be SO impressed
upon the mind of the child as ever to
remain dominating influence upon
it's conduct; that the "home teaching
and Sunday School, program for max
ing this lasting and eficacious impress
sion has proved utterly inadequate;
and that, therefore, more time must
be given to this essential factor of
education.
However, very few have the courage
or, should we say, the wisdom-to
come out in a bold advocacy of our
Catholic practice, daily religious train
ing in school, as we'll as at home.
They are suggesting that the children
of the public schools be excused from
halliday session in the middle of
the week, in order that they may at
tend their respective churches for in
struction in morals and religion
Well, it is step in the right direc-
ton, although not very long one
1t is distinct recognition of the prin-
ciple involved; and let us hope and
pray that it is an indication of better
| things to come.
Apropos of this movement, the Lex
ington, Kentucky, Ministerial Union,
! at it's meeting last Tuesday, went on
record as approving the recent sug-
gestion of M. A. Cassidy, superin-
tendent of. the public schools of the
| Blue Grass metropolis, that the pupils

CATHOLICS AND EDUCATION
NEW YORK SCHOOLS HAVE GIANT
ALLY IN CATHOLIC iNsTl-
TUITION.

The City Superintendent of Schools
of New York recently submitted to the
Board of Education the attendance
figures for the new school year. The
number is creeping near to the mil
lion mark. This is a source of pride
to the inhabitants of the Greater City.
Our future security is being forged in
our school houses. 1t is small won
der that the reading public has given
close attention to the report OF the
Superintendent. We are making sim
cere effort to have all our children
educated. The opening of the con-
tinuation schools describes another
phase Of our work wherein we en-
deayor to safeguard poverty and folly
against the abuse of securing working
papers at too early an age. The world
admires America for it's intensive and
extensive educational labors. We de-
serve the credit which thus comes to
us.
The spirit of fair play is an Ameri-
can trait. We boast of our honesty
of Judgment and our boast is not vain.
In the midst Of great public rejoic-
ing over the amount of good which the
public schools are doing we must not
be unfair to ourselves and forget the
giant ally in the furthering of popu-
lar education which the public schools
have in the Catholic schools. Over
200 Catholic schools are taking pupils
in Greater New York. Their register
is now about 100000. What a relief
to the schools of the city! TANNED
to overlooking, with 40 per cent of the
teachers standing at the head of over
crowded classrooms maintained by an
alarming taxation, the public schools
are fortunate in receiving the aid
granted them by the schools of the
Catholic Church. If the one hundred
and fifty thousand pupils of the Cath.
Ollie schools were to knock at the door
of the public authorities for their edu
cation, what panic would follow.
Within the Catholic classrOoms an edu
cation is being impaired by>real school
in their work. The love of God that
is being planted only enhances the
love of fellow-man and of country
which goes to make up true patriot
| ism. American pride should extend
| to take in the Catholic schools of New
York City which are based on rea
democracy, the door being opened te
all without respect of condition Of
color. They beget no bigotry after the
| manner of the behest of Leo XIII Of
happy memory and they erect an in
! terest in the common welfare which
equals the efforts being made in Other
| quarters. The Catholic schools are
out-and-out opponents of popular edu
cation and they deserve well of Amer
lean pride and praise.
