teHOME AND GOLF"

Governor Cox says ''home and golf are the
things for this people This has genial and
heartening sound; the home owner has a stake
in the country; the golfer is happy while up
building his physical assets. So far SO good;
il is plain that Governor Cox begins with appeal
to the people for old time, stalwart virtues
But how viii his prescription work? 1t Is
much more difficult to get a home now than it
ever was And it is matter for debate whether
golf has ever been direct aid to home getting
or home keeping. Somehow the golf links and
the front lawn. the garden patch and the var
ous homely appurtenances that call for time
and labor do not coordinate as smoothly as
Governor Cox's prescription would indicate.
The people who play golf as a rule have homes
already and the people who have homes to get
and pay for do not as rule play golf nor are
they likely 10 under present conditions.

RUNNING TRUE TO FORM.

Davenport Times: The socialist
mayor has made three. appointments
to the library board The socialistic
majority Of the council has approved
the three, after the mayor was forced
70 drop Judge Waterman, whom he
would have reappointed, and TO sub
stitute the name Of Mrs. Claussen, a
socialist, for the place. The other
members named were Martin SLIDER
stein and DR.. c. T. Lindley. DR..
Lindley is going 10 Chicago to get
pointers from the committee of as.
Whether these appointments add
anything TO the high general average
of qualified persons heretofore ap-
pointed as members OF the library
board, depends upon the point Of
view. One who Is in sympathy with
the socialistic administration will re
ijoice over the appointments as a
icleTer way of boring from within.
And il the appointments do not
measure up to what the community
fought TO expect, well, the community
has no one to blame but itself. II
1T elects a socialist administration, II
must expect that administration DO
run true to form every chance 1t gets.
All the socialistic publications of
the country will now find a place in
the reading-room Of the library. If
the new members have their way.
That will be the kind of literature
for the children and the young people
to read, if you want them to grow up
with twisted and distorted views con.
corning things as they are.
Perhaps it is, a great thing to have
a socialistic city administration, after
all. There are SO many nice things
that it can do in addition to making
such wonderful appointments to mem
bership on the library board. II

to nominate another aspirant for the

THE NATIONAL SHRINE
BENEDTCTION GIVEN ON SITE OF
SHRINE-MANY SISTERS kNEEL
ON GROUND.
(By N. G. w. G.. News Service }

By special permission of Cardinal
Gibbons, Benediction of the Blessed
Sacrament was given for the 371 Sis
ters of the Summer School of the
Catholic University, in the open air on
the site of the National Shrine of the
Immaculate Conception Wednesday
afternoon, August T. Very Rev. George
A. Dougherty, S. r. D., was at the
altar in the absence of Right Rev.
Thomas J. Shahan, rector of the Uni
versity.
The hundreds of Sisters, in habits
of the respective styles and colors of
their different orders, kneeling on the
sward before the altar, and chorusing
hymns in Gregorian chant, was beau
tiful and impressive sight. The altar
itself was the same at which Father
Carroll, afterwards the first Bishop of
the Catholic Church in the United
States, was accustomed to celebrate
Mass more than 100 years ago.
Before Benediction Reverend Ber-
nard A. McKenna, S. T. D., turned the
first sod on the spot where the foun-
dation stone of the Shrine is to be
laid with solemn ceremonies on Sep
tember %. Many of the Sisters kissed
the sod and nearly all of them took
away bits of the turf and other OBJ
jects as souvenirs of the event.
The Benediction of the Blessed Sac
rament and the other exercises were
by special arrangement, at the in
stance of Bishop Shahan, for large
number of Sisters who were to leave
Washington after having finished their
work in the Summer School.
After the Blessed Sacrament had
been taken back to the chapel in Cald-
we'll Hall, Dr. McKenna recalled that
the days ceremonies had conceded
with the feast of Our Lady of the
Shows, and described the work thus
far done toward building the Shrine.

PRAY FOR POLAND
HOLY FATHER SUGGESTS PRAYER
FOR OPPRESSED PEOPLE,.

On the occasion of the solemn func-
ton for the intercession for Poland at
the Church of the Gesu in Rome last
Sunday, suggested to Catholic organl-
cations by the Vatican, Pope Benedict
addressed a letter to the Cardinal
Vicar of Rome, expressing his desire
that Rome's example be followed by
all Bishops of the Catholic world. The
Pope's letter says:
"The interest always felt for Poland
by the Holy See is we'll known, as
the Holy See in the past has protest
ed against partition of Poland and
oppression of the Polish people. Now
not only Poland's existence is in jeop-
ardy, but all Europe is threatened with
the perils of new wars.
Therefore, not only for love of Po-
land, but for love of all Europe, the
Pope desires that all unite with him
to implore God to spare Poland from
supreme disaster, and to remove this
scourge from exhausted Europe"

THE VATICAN AND GERMANY

there in 1917, succeeding the late Mgr.
AVersa who a short time before had
died in Munich.
Radical changes have been intro
duced in the other German diplomatic
representations at the Holy See. Prus-
Sia, up to last year, was represented
at the Vatican by a minister pleni-
potentiary and envoy extraordinary
but there was no corresponding repre-
sentative of the Pope at Berlin. By
the new arrangement, the relations
have been enlarged, completed and
perfected. It is no longer Prussia
alone, but the whole republic of Ger
many which stands in diplomatic re-
lations with the Holy See, and the
representatives of the two powers are
invested with the highest grade of
diplomatic dignity. The German am
bassador at the Vatican is Won Ber-
gen, who came shortly after the arm
istice as a minister and was accredit-
ed three months ago ambassador; and
at Berlin Mgr. Pacelli is an Apostolic
Nuncio Of the first class.

OF MUSSULMANS
EXPLAINED TO HOLY FATHER
-REVOLT THREATENED,

Mohammed Ali, head of the Indian
Mussulman delegation, has been re-
ceived by Pope Benedict and present
ed to the Pope the aspirations of his
people.
After his audience at the Vatican
Mohammed Ali reported that the Pope
had heard his statement sympatheti-
cally and had expressed pleasure at
the spirit of tolerance toward other
religions now being shown by the In
dian MusSulmans.
After declaring that the entire East
has fallen into the hands of Lloyd
George, Mohammed declared. I'VE can
not tolerate British and French man
dates over places where Mussulmans
consider themselves as Gods man
datories.'
Mohammed then explained the pro-
gramme which the Indians intended
carrying out against Great Britain as
follows: First, the return of all dec
orations and titles received from the
British Government; second, the res
ignation Of positions occupied by In
dians in the British administration;
third, the resignation af all Indian
soldiers and policemen, which would
prevent British occupation of Mesopo-
tamia and Palestine, and also sup
port the Greeks in Thrace and Asia
Minor, and fourth, refusal to pay
taxes.
If these actions were not sufficient,
Mohammed Ali added, then a holy war
would be proclaimed.
