TELLS ITALIANS
OF FRIENDSHIP
OF AMERICANS

Genoa, Italy, Sept. 8 - Martin H.
Carmody, of Grand Rapids. Mich,
Deputy Supreme Knight. of the
Knights of Columbus, delivered a
message of friendship from Ameri-
cans to Italians in an address he de-
livered here today as an incident of
Sthe Knights of Columbus pilgrimage
. to the birthplace OF Christopher Co
lumbus.
Mr.. Carmody reviewed the career
of the great navigator from his birth
In humble surroundings, through the
trials and disappointments which be-
set him in his effort to obtain support
for his proposed voyage to establish
a westward trading course from
Europe to the Far East. OF Column
: bus, he saidi
'The Western World shall be his
I monument until time shall be no
more. The spirit of liberty which
filled his soul broke the shacl-'es and
Meters of ignorance. sophistl I and
superstition that enthra1led the age in
which he lived.
'To the citizens of Genoa and all
| the citizens of the great nation. Of
Italy we bring a greeting and mess
| age of friendship from the citizens OF
! the great republic of America
we come mere as representatives.
! OF a society that proudly bears the
| name of the great Columbus to pay
our tribute of respect to the place
made sacred by his birth. We repre-
sent 100000 citizens of the continent
which he discovered. Among our
membership are many thousands who
proudly turn to Italy as the home or
their ancestors.
''The bonds of friendship and am
! fty between the two great nations,
Italy and the United States have
| never been strained or impaired, but
have grown stronger through the
: years. Representing the citizenship
! of every part of our beloved nation
: we bring to the citizenship of the
/ proud and glorious nation Of Italy
sentiments of deepest regard and as
surances that it is our desire that the
ties of friendship which now firmly
unite us may grow stronger through
! the years to come. The sentiment
| which inspired the Great Columbus to
! dedicate his life to the welfare and
| advancement of his fellow men and
/ the extension of Gods kingdom to al
| peoples and the remotest corners of
the earth must no less in our day in
! spire to the contamination of the
! same high purposes. AS Knights
( wearing PROUDLY the name of the
! dauntless discoverer and, deeply con-
! scious of his unwavering devotion to
! principle we here anew in the city of
! his birth pledge our reverence for
! God, our fealty and devotion for his
| church on earth and our owe, ALE
glance, loyalty and support for the
/ great republic of the United States OF
which we have the proud honor to be
| citizens"

COAL PLENTIFUL?

information that there is no danger
of coal famine in this country, that
there is coal enough in the ground to
last 1000 years. This may be true,
but what is needed is coal, out Of the
ground. The Ancient Mariner sang.
"Watcr, water everywhere.

The Red Cross seal, which has
been the means Of support OF the
