that women must be freed from the great

does while attending to her domestic

she declared. an enormous amount OF
working energy would be available.

The Vatican's fight against the Young
Mems Christian Association Is beginning
to bear fruit in France, unfortunately in
the devastated regions. where the work
OF that organization is urgently required.
AT Amiens the Archbishop, when he
learned that leading citizens had offered
200, 900 francs to the Municipal Council
to construct n playground and gym
naslum, personally called on the Mayor
and the Prefect OF the Department of
the Somme and converted both OF them
to his views regarding the danger of the
Young Mems Christian Association to
Catholic youths. This resulted in the
Council abandoning the project.
The Holy See issued a decree on
December 23 last asking Catholic bishops
to watch an organization which. while
protesting absolute freedom OF thought
in religious matters, instils indifferent
ism and apostasy in the minds Of its
adherents." IL mentioned the Young
Mems Christian Association by name
and said that organization was upheld
by many Catholics who did not know Its
real nature. but that II was oorrupting
