"America established but one record
in the war: She entered the war for
the vilest motive in the history of the
world-for gold. According to Field
Marshal Hendenburg, as quoted in an
interview given to Mr.. Ferdinand Tue
hy, Paris correspondent of the New
York World. He is quoted further, as
follows:
owe Germans, we fought for the SUI
premacy of our race. The American
fought to have gold You can tell them
that if YOU wish. The Americans!
There is not n people in the world with
a narrower spirit As for the German
people they are monarchist to the mar
row Of their bones. They will have a
new monarchy. When and how? That

Immediately upon tho convening OF

ton. He said that the Philadelphia

effort has been made until the boy is
is or 10 years old. The plan Is to
start with the boys when they arc IA

that the Union was not concerned In
the sports or other details. except as

He told tho delegates that the
adults ought to be proud to stand up
for the Catholic Church and advertise
1t through the activities OF the boys
clubs. Father Daley said he did not
believe there was any bigotry in
.America.
, IF he's Catholic" he said, why
not stand up and say so7 Consequently
when he belongs TO club why
shouldn't he say so and advertise the
club" The Catholic Church, he said,
was the only one that has stood the
test of time.
The idea OF the civic centre is to
merge all boys clubs, which would
give strength to the plan. II the MEM

be strengthened It will depend on how
the boys are looked after.
