MODERN reform
Father Tucker Can't See
Cure for World Ailments
in Legislation
TALKS ON NEGATION,
OF AUTHORITY

"Negadon OF Authority" was the
subject on which the Rev. J. Francis
Tucker. d. D.. spoke last night at
the Lenten services in st. Paul's
r. c. Church. Of which the Rev.
Thomas +. Waldron Is rector.
The sermon was the first OF a
series that Father Tucker is 10 de-
liver in st. Paurs on the Tuesday
nights OF Lent. His subject last
night was chosen from the Popos
recent statement setting forth the
five great plaques. which are trou-
bling the world today; "Negauon OF
Authority" Hatred Among Broth
ers." Thirst for Pleasure" Disgust
For Work" and "Fortgetfulness OF
the Supernatural objects Of Life"
"Negation OF Authority" said
Father Tucker. is manifest not only
in political realms. but also in the
industrial and social worlds and
even in the family circle and in the
school room. Professionals have no
monopoly on 'Parlor Bolshevism.' for
there are many amateurs skilled in
the art and they are your own chill
dren."
The preacher assigned as the
cause OF this negation OF authority
the spirit Of independence in the in
ferior and that OF tyranny in the
superior. Under this heading he
scored modern reformers who, while
preaching deliverance from the re-
lngious yoke Of the dark ages and
lchampioning the principles OF per
sonal liberty. chain down not only
their own addicts. but everybody in
the world 10 narrow views Of moral.
lity and endeavor 20 whip them into
