World Lacks Christian Ideals

burglaries and the like. And what is
the answer to this tremendous and ap-
palling reign of the criminal? Is it
that our standards are lowered and
our ideals lost?
1--WE must bring back to the Ameri-
can people sense of their depen-
dence on and their duty to God No
organization is more fitted for this
task than the Holy Name Society.
In this day, the Holy Name Society
is thinking not of self nor of the
present, but is looking forward to flu
ture generations, and insisting on
morality, decency and a clean heart
and clean mouth in men; it is follow
ing up our ideal of the American citi-
zen, George Washington, who, in his
farewell address, emphasized to the
people he loved that religion and
morality are indispensable to political
prosperity. The Catholic Church
stands, day in and day out, for the
type of citizenship that George Wash
ington described.
Children Should Be Taught.
1--WE believe that our children
should be taught, in the formative pc
riod, the morality and the religion of
which Washington spoke They can
not be separated. The average age
of the criminals-desperate criminals
who appear before the bar of justice
in the criminal courts of New York
City, is II to Is years old. They have
stood before me there, hundreds, of
them, boys in age but criminals in
heart.
There is something wrong, there
is something rotten in this country of
ours when such a situation obtains
Can it be that we have lost our grip
on our boys and girls? Are we rear
ing them with no sense of authority?
THE only thing that can reclaim
the citizenship of this country is the
ceaseless, fearless teaching of re-
ligion. Such a practice would bring
back respect for law.

See in the city of Fresno, is to be es-

SAINTS BODY INcORRUPI.

Many who assisted at the Eucharis-

those who were members of the Third

famous Penitent, st. Margaret of Cor

for more than six centuries. This
precious body reposes in the beautiful

POAIeARE SPEAKS OUT
NO FRICTION BETWEEN FRANCE
AND THE VATICAN.

3 K ~ aFF
Both Italian and French papers
have been set right by public decla-
ration from President Poincare, re-
garding statements that friction had
arisen between the Holy See and the
French Government. The story was
that the President had complained to
the Senatorial Commission on For
eign Affairs about the Vatican's ac-
ton respecting Russia. These papers
added also that the same complaint
was made concerning Monsignor Ger
retti's alleged interposition in French
domestic politics.
Now comes President Poincare
with the public declaration that such
statements are wholly erroneous.
The Vatican is quite satisfied with
this clarifcation Of the affair.

REFORM, SPEAKER DECLARES.

Religion is the only cure for the
present wave of criminality in this
country, and no organization is better
fitted than the Holy Name Society to
bring back the American people to a
proper sense of their duty to God
Alfred j. Talley, Judge of the Court
of General Sessions of New York
City, told members of that organiza-

600 men and boys heard Judge Tai

The occasion was the quarterly
meeting of the Detroit Diocesan I'm

addresses by Judge Talley and others
there was solemn Benediction of the
Blessed Sacrament.

Talley.

Divine Architect, seems to be re-

SIN all branches of art and literature,
we find ourselves forced to go back
and sit at the feet of men who lived

Judge Talley also discussed at
length the great wave of criminality
which, he says, is sweeping the Unit

"The lawyers of the nation, in con-

OREGON MASoNS START FIGHT
ON CHURCH ScHooLs-FoRcE
VOTE ON COMPULSORY ATTEN-
DANCE AT PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN.
NOVEMBER.

Fears entertained by Catholics of
Oregon that they would have to face
battle to save their parochial school
system have been fully justified as a
result of spectacular one-day cam
paign under the direction of the Scot
tish Rite Masons in Portland, in
which sufficient signatures were OBJ
tanned to place on the ballot for the
general election in November an
initiative measure to compel children
between the ages of eight and sixteen
to attend the public schools. Thirteen
thousand signatures, or those of ten
per cent of the voters, are required for
initiative measures in Oregan, and the
Scottish Rite campaign, conducted on
June Is, yielded three times that
number.
1t was not until the signatures had
been secured that the Scottish Rite
Masons accepted responsibility for the
campaign in behalf of the measure,
under which there could exist no pri-
vate schools for children who have
not finished the eighth grade. If
adopted this year the act will go into
effect in September, 1926, which /ac-
cording to those who sponsor the act,
will leave the private schools of the
state time in which to adjust them
selves to the law.
Active in Michigan Fight.
Robert E. Smith, president of one
of the larger Portland banks, who had
active charge of the campaign, also
accepted the responsibility, in a pub
lished statement, for the attempt
which was recently made in Michigan
to eliminate the private schools. Until
Smith took credit for his activities,
the most active promoter of the meas
ure seemed to be Fred L. Clifford, ex-
alted cyclops of the Ku Klux klan in
Oregon.
The text of the proposed measure is
as follows:
''An act to propose by initiative peti-
ton to amend section $3.50 Oregon
laws. Compulsory education.
BE it enacted by the people of the
State of Oregon.
Section /. That Section $3.50 Ore

OF time by the parent or a private
teacher such subjects as are usually
taught in the first eight years in the

can be taught by parent or a pri-
vate teacher, such parent or private
teacher must receive written permis-
sion from the county superintendent
and such permission shall not extend
longer than the end of the current
school year. Such child must report
to the county school superintendent
or some person designated by him at
least once every three months and
take an examination in the work
covered. If, after such examination
the county superintendent shall deter

court.
"This act shall take effect and re-

Big Fight Expected.
The action of the Masonic body in
thus definitely accepting respon-
sibility for the measure is regarded as
yfV,ny @0n
gauntlet to the entire Catholic edu-
cational system of the United States,
and there is little doubt among Cath
olic leaders that any success gained by
the opponents of Catholic schools In
Oregon will stimulate similar efforts
in practically every state of the union.
1t is remembered that on the. eve
of the primary election In which Gov
ernor Ben. w. Olcott won by margin
of 627 votes over Charles E. Hall,
avowed proponent of the, Ku Klux
Klan, a proclamation was, issued by
Frank s. Baillie, Grand Master of the
Masonic Lodges of Oregon, "interdict-
ing" the movement as 'fnciting TO
racial and religious bigotry."
Three bills aimed at parochial
schools and Catholic teachers, includ-
| ing one that has for its target the
garb of the sisterhoods that now teach
public schools in six Oregon COM
munities, were introduced at the last
| legislature, but were sent into the dis
card.
The present private school enroll
ment in Oregon is 29,235 and the pub
lie school enrolment is 160,294.
