CLERGYMAN DENIES
 POLITICAL INTENT
French Cardinals Letter But
 Lesson in CateChiSn

Paris, March 16. The French cardinals and archbishops' letter re- garding the non-demoninational laws was not of a political nature, but a lesson in the catechism. This was the declaration of Cardinal Du- bois, archbishop of Paris, and what he styled a postscript to the letter in which he read to the congregation after his sermon at last evenings service in the cathedral of Notre Dame.
 The Holy See, the cardinal said, was in no way connected with the letter; indeed the papal nuncio only knew of it from the newspapers, but the congregation must remember that the popes had always condemn ed secularization laws.
 The prelate maintained that the letter was not political act. The church, he said, Was outside and above party. It neither condemned nor supported any legal form of gov ernment, and he strongly protested against the accusations that the signers of the letter wished to over throw the republic.
 The cardinals and archbishops were justified in following the policy of the pope by demanding revision or even abrogation of the scculariza- ton laws, which were really anti religious measures. It was their mis- sion and their duty to enlightcn the | faithful, to mould their cOnsciences and to preach the truth. Let the French Catholics have confidence in their chiefs, he concluded they could not doubt either their fidelity to the church or their devotion to the country.
 The cardinals statement was greeted with applause unprecedented in the cathedral. The congregation rose to it's feet and cheered until the cardinal, asked them to moderate their applause. He had difficulty ir
 making his way out of the church
 because of the number crowding
 about him in congratulation.

The Hero" Revived.

FEW writers have had a more per-
feet background for playwriting
than has Gilbert Emery, author of
The Hero which the Rams Head
Players will present this week. His
stage experience has taught him the
technique, the Limitations and the art
of the theater. From his novels and
short stories he has gained a remark
able facility in dialogue. and from
his experiences during and after the
war he has learned that a soldier out
of uniform is not any more inspiring
than an unfrocked bishop.
The Hero" is his first play and
was written in 1920. shortly after his
return from France, while his i'm
pressions of warfare were still vivid
in his mind. 1t was first produced at
the Longacre Theater, in New York
City, March, 1921, for a series of spe-
cial matinees, with Jetta GoudaI,
Blanche Friderici, Kathlene NcDon
mel, Graham Lucas, Robert Ames and
Grant Mitchell in the cast. So en-
thusiastic was the reception accorded
it that Sam II. Harris. the producer,
revived il later, with a cast including
Fania Marinoff, Robert Ames and
Richard Bennett
The play is printed in Arthur Hob
son Quinn's Contemporary American
Plays" and in Burns Mantle's Best
Plays of 1921-22." 1t was produced
so soon after the great war that the
public, in a measure. failed to grasp
its greatness and truth, which the.
critics hailed with enthusiasm be-
cause of its beautiful construction as
play and its courageous theme.
