Washington, ID. c., April 9.-The
ceremony of conferring upon Admiral
William Shepherd Benson, chairman
of the United States Shipping Board,
the decoration of the Order of st.
Gregory the Great, of which he has
been made knight of the Grand
Cross by Pope Benedict Nv, will take
place in the Baltimore Cathedral on
Sunday, April 18th. Admiral Benson
is the first American to receive this
highest degree of knighthood in the
military division of the Order of st.
Gregory the Great.
Cardinal Gibbons will officiate at the
ceremony of investiture. 1t is ex-
pected that in addition to several
members of the Catholic hierarchy
and numerous lesser dignitaries, there
will be present many of Admiral Ben
sons fellow officers of the Navy, and
important officials of the various Gov
ernment departments in Washington.
Pope Benedict, in his brief bestow-
ing the honor of Gregorian knighthood
on Admiral Benson, explains that it
is granted as recognition of the lat
ter's having set for his fellow citizens
"a most worthy example of piety and
Christian virtue" Admiral Benson's
appointment was made at the sugges-
tion of Cardinal Gibbons.

Paulist Fathers Lease the Rockefeller
Residence Overlooking the
Hudson River.

New York, April 8.-With the leas-
ing of Libby Castle from the Rookie
feller estate the Paulist Fathers have
founded the first permanent choir
school of the Catholic church in
America. Overlooking the Hudson,
the new home of the school is an ideal
spot for the fifty boys who live there
under the care of Father Finn, Father
McGrath and Father Mention.
The Paulist Fathers, whose church
is located at Columbus avenue and
Sixtieth street, have long been leaders
in religious music. AS early as the
'60s, though with great opposition, the
use of the Gregorian chant was
started, under Father Young, the au-
thor of the we'll known Catholic
Hymnal." Sir Edmund Hurley, who
succeeded Father Young, was
knighted by the Pope for his work in
church music. With the advent last
June of the Very Rev. Thomas F..
Burke, as superior general of the
Paulist Fathers, decision was made
to put singing on a more stable and
broad basis with the establishment of
q permanent choir school. The Rev.
William j. Finn had been assigned in
1918 to duty in New York by the Paul
list choristers when they met in Chi
cago, and since that time he has been
conductor of music at the Paulist
Fathers, New York. This young mu-
sician has been honored by Plus X

seldom worn.
The Order of ST, Gregory the Great
was founded by Pope Gregory XVI ON
September l, 1881. knighthood in the
Order was intended by the Pope as q
reward for the civil and military vir-
tues of Catholics upon whom it was
conferred. The Order was placed un-
der the patronage of Pope (Saint)
Gregory THE same that sent st.
Augustine to Christianize the English.
Admiral Bensons services during
the war and since have been of the
most important character. AS Chief
of Naval Operations he was respons-
ible for the execution of the United
States Governments plans for warfare
against Germany on the seas. These
plans contemplated not only offensive
and defensive operations, but also the
protection Of transports on their way
to Europe with troops and supplies
for the American and Allied armies.
He was stationed in Paris during
nearly all the sessions of the Peace
Conference.
1t is taken for granted that Admiral
Benson's notable success as Chief of
Naval Operations prompted President
Wilson to put him at the head of the
Governments merchant marine.
AS chairman of the United States
Shipping Board, Admiral Benson has
the official care of 1900 vessels, more
than $4,000, 100000 worth of property,
and several thousand employees
These 1900 ships constitute the larg-
est merchant fleet ever placed under
the direction Of single operator
They are sailing in all the waters of

Oil Kings Castle
To BeChOir School

while the degree of doctor Of letters
was conferred upon him by Notre
Dame university.
The Very Rev. Thomas F. Burke
believes in building on the experience
of Europe, which long ago realized
the necessity for permanent choir
schools, such as those of the Sistine
chapel, Rome, and the Westminster
cathedral choir. Perfection in vocal
ism and skill in "a capella" forms can
best be developed in such schools. AS
a result of his decision the school
which had been temporarily estab-
lished at 8 Riverside drive, has been
moved to Libby castle, on Ft. Wash
fngton drive. A budget of $4,000 a
year is planned in order to carry on
this work, which includes instruction
in all branches for the choir boys as
we'll as their maintenance. The choir
will sing at high Mass every Sunday
morning in the Paulist Fathers
church and will also tour the country
and be used in helping on all char
table work, such as the Liberty loans
to which they gave their services.
Music lovers of the Catholic church
are relied upon to help put this very
necessary school upon sure basis,
through the Paulist Choir association.
The church of the Paulist Fathers is
looked on as fitting place for the
production Of all that is lovely in
music. The beautiful windows and
paintings by LIE Fargo and the center
altar of Carrara marble and mosaic,
afford a setting fit for the music
which arises from the voices of the
Paulist choristers.

Ireland's Bishops on

Cardinal Losue: "The high ideals
for which one side, at least professed
to have entered upon the war have
vanished at the touch Of national
jealousies; conflicting interests, and
the lust Of conquest. Not with.

we find in Ireland such calamitous
conditions as exist at present. Z.

most pitiless autocratic government;
vindictive sentences out Of all proper

lettres de cachet, or arbitrary arrests,
more frequent than in pre-revolution-
ary France; deportations such as
raised a world-cry of reprobatfon
against the Germans when in military
occupation of Belgium; these and sim
ilar acts of power could not fail to
create exasperatfon, recklessness, de-
SPAR, and general disorder"
Dr.. o'DonneII (Raphoe): "Lust Of

TRANSPORTED HANGING By THE
HANDS.

Alderman William O'Brien, one OF
1reland's foremost labor leaders, Sec
retary of the Irish Labor Party and
Trades Union Congress, and a mem
ber Of the English.appointed Irish Coal
Commission, was deported to some un
known English prison on March 4
without charge or trial. He was tor
tured on the journey by having his
hands 1ashed to a high beam over his
head. The following description OF
the scene is from the Dublin CORE
spondent of the London "Dairy Her
aid" of March 9Th:
circumstances attending the depor
tation of Alderman William O'Brien
secretary Of the Irish Trades Union
Congress, have caused wave of wild
anger here. Deportations of we'll

in this case, cruel and unnecessary
brutality was used.

The Times also condemns the gov
ernment's attitude toward O'Brien, as
calculated to inflame that body of
Irish opinion, whereon, it says, the
salvation of Ireland must depend ulti-
mately.
The paper declares itself forced to
believe that the situation has passed
entirely beyond the governments con-
troll, and thinks that Irishmen have
begun to accept with sullen acquies-
cence open war on the government.
