STATES ARCHBISHOP
Right Rev. P. J. Hayes Says
Spirit of Evil Is Permeating
All American Life.

Archbishop Patrick ]. Hayes Of the
Catholic Diocese of New York, in an
address last night in the Hotel Commo-
dore before the members of the Catholic
Writers Guild at reception where he
was the guest Of honor. declared that
the spirit of divorce "is rampant in the
land"
"It not only applies to that awful
thing of separation of man and wife,
but when 1t does get into the home.
said the archbishop. ut will get into
other things. You see divorce Of child
from parent, childbearing from women,
God from government, religion from edu.
cation. morality from business life, reli-
gion from profession. and all that reli-
gion means as a great preservative In
every walk Of life"
The archbishop advised members OF
the guild to use their pens to give every
one "a fair American chance"
Something must be DONE" he said
"to keep America on the old path ano
in the spirit of the men OF '76. the spirit
of those who wrote the Constitution ano

We seem to be losing their spirit j say
