the other sacraments. The ministers
or the sacrament of matrimony are
the persons to be married, not the
priest nor the minister nor the. squire.
The reason is that marriage is con-
tract and the parties too contract are
the makers thereof. But it is quite
different with the other sacraments.
The ministers must have received the
sacrament of Orders, and in the case
OF confession, must have received jur-
1sdiction from the Bishop or the Pope.
Protestant ministers have not re-
ceiVed the sacrament of Holy Orders;
In the Judgment of the Church, they
are merely laymen and have no more
right to administer the sacraments of
God than any other layman If Prot
estant minister enters the Church, and
desires to become a priest, he must
first give evidence of his vocation,
then undergo long period of study
and instruction, and finally receives or
dlnation from the Bishop.

Invented GAS MASK
DR.. coNNELL, DISTINGUISHED
OMAHA SURGEON, RECEIVES
RECOGNITION FROM, y. S. Cow
EMINENT.

The award of the Distinguished
Service Medal to DR.. Karl Connell, pro
,fessor1 of surgery at the Creighton Uni
versity College of Medicine, Omaha,
Neb., is a recognition which many
have long, awaited. 1t is now realized,
in accordance with the decision of
General Pershing p
DR.. Connell made his first two years
of study in medicine at Creighton, and
finished at Columbia. Before he was
called to France in November, 1917,
he had won. fame as a physician by in
venting masks, for the administering
of anaesthetics. His claim to the graf
itude of his country rests on his work
in the invention of gas masks. At a
critical time he furnished a much
needed protection against the formid-
able, diphenylchlorarsine, or sneezing
gas. But his merits are best praised
lin the words Of 1t. Col. Amos A.
Fries, U. S. A., Chief of Chemical
Warfare Service.
In. a. lecture published in the Jour
nal of Industrial. and Engineering
Chemistry, May, 1920, 1t. Col. Fries
testifes that Major Gonnell produced,
in March, 1918, "the first all-American
mask that was then and is today a
complete. protection against all known
cases. and that later he threw his
whole soul into the problem of de-
veloping what is now the 1919 Ameri'
can mask, the finest mask in the
world"

OAE-HALF OF INCOME

Clergymen, including Catholic
priests, will be hit hard by the new
taxes which are contemplated in bills
now before the Hungarian Parliament.
Chief among the provisions of the
proposed measures are those estab-
fishing gradations based on service at
the front during the war.
Any man who saw no service as a
soldier in the war has to pay five
times the basic property and capital
tax plus. one-time payment amount

tax includes priests and other clergy

SACRAMENTO WINE BILL TO
Be DROPPED

The bill in the Colorado legislature
for the restriction of sacramento
wine, which was referred back to a
committee of the house, will not come
to a vote. This is a great tribute to
the Americanism of the legislators,
who refused to interfere with religious
liberty under the guise Of stricter
prohibition enforcement. Other anti
religious legislation has also been
shelved. One bill would have made it
impossible for a judge to commit a
child, such as an orphan, to any de-
institution.

LATE BALTIMORE PRELATE

H.ENsLY IsM UPHELD
RIGHTS OF LABOR TO ORGAN
LIE. si a

7 Two acts of the late Cardinal Glib
bons may be singled out among the
multitude of significant and impor-
tant matters in which he was the
leader or in which he played a part.
These two acts are: first, the sup
preston of Cahenslyism; and, second,
his defense of the Knights of Labor.
With the first, he did service to his,
country the full measure of which be-
came apparent only in the light of the
World War; with the second he prov
ed that the Church was the true
friend of the working man. the pro-
tector of the poor today as in all the
centuries, past.
Menace of cahenslyism.
Cahenslyism was movement
among Catholic immigrants in the
United States to secure separate &C.
clesiastical organization for each ma
tionality or language, and in partic-.
ular, for Germans, named after Peter
Paul Cahensly, Austro-Hungarian en-
voy to the Vatican and a leader of
the st. Raphael Society in Germany,
and Austria for promoting Catholic
interests among emigrants.
About the year 1884, eighty-two
German priests in the United States.
petitioned the Pope for help, inafper-
petuating their native language in the
diocese of st. Louis. Mo-, and in 1886,
petitioned again that German Catho-
lies be obliged to join German-speak-
ing churches and be forbidden attend
ing those speaking English. AS they
received no open reply, they formed,
in 1887, society which sent repre-,
sentatives that year to the St. Raph-
ael Society at, Lucerne, Switzerland,
and enlisted the, cooperation of Herr
Cahensly - ~ @4.:
This movement was opposed. by
Cardinal Gibbons, who denounced it.
as unpatriotic and disloyal.
On August 20, 1891, he delivered a
strong sermon on the subject when
he conferred the pallium on Arch
bishop Katzer in st. Johns Cathedral,
Milwaukee. This ceremony was at
tended by more than TOO prelates and:
priests.
Knights of Labor Problem.
The problem growing out of the.
Knights of Labor movement is fairly
well known. Together with Cahen-
slyism, it was one of the major diff
ficultiese which confronted the new,

Out of the North Sea

The peoples loosely called Anglo
Saxon have produced from time to
time men who were great fighters
primarily because they were men of
exceptional force Of character
men to whom fear was unknown,
and who not only rushed in with
vigor, but held on with such tenacity
that the enemy was overawed. Such
men were Nelson and Paul Jones,
and in our own day such has been
Beatty.
Few of Britain's war heroes more
appeal to America than does Admiral
Beatty. AS the lion of the North
Sea he won fame that will persist.
AS commander of the British Grand
Fleet, which Admiral Sims described
as the keystone Of the Allied arch, 4"
he did great work greatly.
There has been warm discussion
Of the strategy of the two principal
North Sea engagements, and parti-
sans have expressed frank views in
England. But none has disputed
Admiral Beatty's character, and
none is inclined to deny that as
Foch did on land so did Beatty
at sea. I've instinct of both was to
attack--both believed that battles
were not won by defense.
Admiral Beatty is welcome for
what he represents and for what he
has done. But above all, he is well
come for what he is.

Amendment No. S

To remedy patent defects in the
Children's Court is the object of
Amendment 5, to be voted on next
month.
At present children's courts are
not permitted to appoint a guardian,
although they have the power to
commit children to institutions. This
limitation of authority interferes
with the exercise of the best judg-
ment by the courts. AS between de-
pendable relatives and institutions
they are obliged to choose the insti-
tutions if the relatives are not finan-
cially able to carry the case to the
Surrogates' Court. Yet experience
has shown the superiority of family
life to institutional care in the
bringing up of young children.
There are other questions also af-
fecting the interests and safety of
children, such as the decision as to
which parent is fitted to take care of
them, that now must be referred to
other courts, despite the complete
ness of the evidence of abuse or bad
treatment before the original court.
Not only is there duplication Of work
involved in the change of venue, but
there is delay in settling the child's
future.
The amendment has the approval
of the Women's City Club, the City
Club of New York, the League Of
Women Voters and many other or
ganizations interested in child well
fare. The Children's Eode Commits

Capital for DEVELOPMENT

In his letter to Senator Lenroot
concerning the surtaxes and the
levies on corporate income Otto II.
Kahn speaks of how "the source Of
the supply of funds for pioneering
and for developing the country has
run dry under the whitening action
Of those taxes"
How incomes on which the sur
taxes fall heavily have disappeared !;
how the tax collector, when he
turns the "kivers" back, finds "noth-
ing there at ALL" are facts so IA
miliar as to need little further en-
phasis. The investments of the very
rich in tax-exempts have been so
large and their sales of non-exempt
securities so urgent that of course
the surtaXes tend more and moro to
bring nothing in.
But the chief evil of the surtaxes
and the corporation income tax
will remain, though not cent from
them reaches the Treasury. AS Mr..
Kahn remarks, the man Of small
means ought not, and, if prudent,
will not, invest in unseasoned secu-
rites. To him safety of principal
is first. Risk taking is not his role.
But to carry the country prosper
ously forward 1t is essential to have
capital which is willing to take risks.
In the past this has come from the
surplus funds Of the corporations
and of the we'll to do. The rifling
OF these funds and the compulsion
on their owners to buy tax-exempts
are obviously among the principal
causes of unemployment and the de-
preston of business. Through our
tax laws we have been saving off the
limb on whose outer end is growth.
No wonder we have had a fall. The
foundation has been kicked from I'm
der general employment at good and
stable wages. Large incomes, spent
on disqualification, can be absorbed
without doing much harm. But sur
plus income which is reinvested is
another matter.
Any one with talent enough to be-
come Senator is surely intelligent
enough to recognize the consequences
of permanently diverting waters
needed to irrigate the parched plain
of business. But courage to do what
is good for the country is lacking.

.lence groundless political fear

Venizelos

Eleuthcrios Venizelos comes to this
country as an exiled subject and to
the Washington conference as an OBJ
server without official status; but he
will represent Greece here in a
broader sense than any delegate sent
by Constantines government could
represent her. He is the creator Of
the Greece Of to-day. He enlarged
her territory and greatly increased
her stature as European power.
He fought for Greek national inter
ests when Constantine forsook them
and tried to tie his people up to a
fatal alliance with Germany, Aus
tria-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey.
He went to the extreme of setting up
an Independent pro-Ally provisional
government at Salonica. His judg-
ment was vindicated when the Allied
powers elected Constantine and
Greece was put in a position under
his leadership 10 reap extraordinary
advantages as factor in the Near
Eastern peace settlement.
The fatuous restoration last fall
undid a part of Vcnizelos's work;
but the world respects him as much
as ever for his political vision and
the courage and energy which he
displayed in state building. The

The Silesian Line

According to Paris dispatches the
division of Upper Silesia made by
the Council of the League of Ma
tions gives Germany about two
thirds Of the geographical area and
Poland about one-third. In the
big western and northern sections,
outside the industrial triangle, the
plebiscite vote was overwhelmingly
for Germany Poland wasn't in
terested in taking over these re-
gions. She wanted Pless, Rybnik
and a division of the industrial tri-
angle, with a strip of territory
along the old border north Of Beth
uen, in which Polish-speaking Sile-
slams were predominant.
The Council carried out the man.
date of the treaty. 1t divided the
plebiscite area by communes, ac-
cording to the wishes of the voters.
1t was forced to bisect the indus
trial section, because here some Of
the towns went for Germany, while
the surrounding country districts
went for Poland. The Council took
the view that it's first duty was po-
litical one-that is, to draw a bound
ary line. 1t seems to have done
this without prejudice or favorit-
ism. In the Allied Council a dispo-
sition had been shown to use Upper
Silesia as bargaining material to
obtain execution of other parts of
the treaty. This policy, encouraged
by Lloyd George, broke down when
the problem was turned over to the
league. Mr.. Balfour joined with the
other eight members Of the League
Council in drawing boundary line
which is apparently only slightly
different from the one which the
peace conference Polish commission
recommended in the spring of 1919
but which Lloyd George rejected.
The economic adjustment in Up
per Silesia is left to joint com
mission Of Poles, Germans and
Silesians. The political barrier is
not to be converted into an eco
nomic barrier. The mines and fac
tories are still there and still in the
hands Of the same private owners.
Their output may be used freely by
Poles and Germans. The Germans
have complained about being de-
prived of Silesia's coal. This was
by-play. What they didn't want to
be deprived Of was the possibility
Of converting Upper Silesia again
into a war material base.
New-York tribune., 1921-10-22
the Legislature to revise the laws
relating to children's courts, has also
indorsed the amendment.


The population of New York is
about evenly divided as to sex, vet
almost twice as many men as women
die from tuberculosis in this CITY,
Why? Is man, after all, "the weaker
sex"?
That is probably not the explana-
ton. In the current bulletin of the
New York tuberculosis Association
the uneven mortality ofsthe sexes is
accounted for by the fact that a
much greater number of men than
women work outside the home-not
only work, but overwork, and fire.
quently under insanitary conditions.
Is 1t reasonable deduction that the
laws OF hygiene are observed in
houses and flats, but are frequently
disregarded in shops and Offices?
But there is ground for encourage
ment. The decline in the death rate
from tuberculosis continues. The
campaign for prevention Is becoming
effective. In the last eleven years the
fatal cases of consumption have been
reduced one-half. The irreducible
minimum, however, is not yet ap-
preached. 1t is everybody's duty to
spread the gospel of prevention.
Fresh air, nourishing food, proper
clothing and eternal vigilance are
the foes of tuberculosis. Neglect is
its best friend.
