HEAR UNREST TALK
Or. Sheehy Holds Many Ma
tionaI Leaders Separate
Power and Moral Purpose.

The fact that national leaders very
often are men in whom power, intel
lectual and otherwise, Is separate from
moral purpose" explains the unrest
that marks the world today, Rev. Or.
Maurice S. Shelby instructor in re-
ligion at Catholic University declared
in the baccalaureate sermon at Catho-
lie University yesterday.
The sermon was heard by the 432
students in the crypt of the National
Shrine Of the Immaculate Conception
who will receive their degrees Wednes-
day. Rev. DR.. Nicholas A. Weber. dean
of the College of Arts and Sciences,
celebrated the baccalaureate mass.
DIR. Sheehy said the average col
1egian, secluded within the walls Of a
college and absorbed in academic in
tereSts, may not grasp the real import
OF what Is going on in the world.
Continuing, he declared:
Most of you are aware that there
Is a government in Russia which has
substituted itself in place of God. You
know that something has happened In
Spain, that the oldest monarchy In
Europe has been overturned. The news

efforts are being made to stem the tide
of discomfort, Of disorder and Of po-
litical revolution. There are those who
wish to rewrite the history Of the fu-
man race"
The past. DR.. Sheehy contended.
points out three lessons to the college
graduate. First, life without an ideal
and purpose Is not worth the living:
second, an ideal cannot be put into
practice without sacrifice and without
disappointment, and third. kinship with
the past demands that life be seen as
whole.

bishop of Baltimore, will preside at

day at which time DR.. william J.

of education, will deliver the address.
