President. Gales issued his bitter
est broadside against the Catholic
clergy in q statement to an Ameri-

the clergy with seeking wealth and
political power, causing revolutions
and bloodsheds and using their pull
pits for seditious speeches, while
keeping the masses of the people
ignorant.
The Catholic Episcopate continued
unyielding in its refusal to accept
the governments regulations: there
was NO move to return the priests
OF the churches, and the deadlock
was apparently absolute, with no
prospects Of reconciliation.

One. thing is certain, the conservative

banker expressed the situation well
to me the other day by saying that
the market as a whole is justified by

are not justified. and those pla wing
