Lent begins March 1. All between

Annual Communion may be now

What's Right With the World
Lent is the major penitential sea-
son of the year. Its duration is de-
termined by the 40 days fast and
life. Its purpose is to fulfill the in
functions to penance insisted on in
the old law, and preached and ex-
emplified by John the Baptist. Christ,
and the inspired writer's. Its purpose
is not to cast gloom, but to bring
spiritual sunshine to those who take
the medicine of penance. st. Paul
says, Il chastise my body and bring
it into subsection" etc. Penitential
works satisfy for sin forgiven and for
tify against future sim The road to
Heaven is not a royal one, but the
way of the cross trodden by Him
whom we emulate.

France Approves Plan for
Troops to Defend Regime
Against Nazis.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS. September 2-France, for the
first time publicly. has lent support to
Austria's campaign against the Nazi
party.
The French government. acting with
Great Britain and Italy. today approved
Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss request
for authorization to raise a special corps
of 5000 men for duty against terrorist
clements within Austria on the Ger
man border.
Foreign Minister Joseph Paul-Bon-
cour, commenting on Frances action.
said France agreed to the request lin
view Of the notably temporary and ex-
ceptional character of the corps en-
visaged and the fact it will be recruited
by voluntary enlistment and not surpass
the limits of men and equipment fixed
by the treaty of ST. Germain."
M. Paul-Boncour said that consent
was given for as long as the special
conditions exist"
Among the reasons for the special
corps given by Chancellor Dollfuss. he
said, the French government believes
the most important Ito note is the ter
rorist campaign directed against the
present Austrian government and the
defense measures taken under Chan
cellor DollfuSs against disorderly ele-
ments in question"
Austria's request for the increase in
armed forces came after a propaganda
campaign in which airplanes dropped
leaflets attacking the Dollfuss govern
m1nt. Austrians said the airplanes
came from Germany At the same
time radio broadcasting campaign was
directed against the Dollfuss regime
from German station
The Austrian and German govern
mentS have been at odds since Adolf
Hitler became chancellor of Germany.
The conflict widened after the Dollfuss
government outlaWed Austrian NaZis.

into a one-man administration
Saw Changes Necessary.
In his message Col. Roosevelt said:
The rapid increase Of population in
the National Capital within recent
years has greatly altered social condi-
tions. necessitating changes in the ma
chinery of its administration. Greater
efficiency and a better provision for
the protection of both the industrial
and dependent classes are required.
Recognizing these needs. I have had
a special report made to me on the
affairs of the District of Columbia
which transmit herewith. I cordially
approve the recommendations in the
report for:
The substitution of single head or
governor in place Of three commits
sioners.
The establishment of District or
municipal departments in place of the
existing bureaus, and.
THE creation of a new department
to be known as that of housing and
labor
Praised Reynolds Work.
Il ask your careful consideration of
the entire report. Mr.. Reynolds has
IcIluSIeu great anu QlSlIlUeTcSleQ SeTN-
ice for which our heartiest thanks arc
due him. A single executive head
would increase efficiency. determine
responsibility and eliminate delays and
uncertainties inevitable under the pres
ent system
The message was received at the
Capitol on December II, 1908, and
apparently nothing ever was done
about 1t. The Star. in commenting on
the lack Of interest in the message, re-
marked: Congress is in no mood at
this time to pay respectful attention
to what the President may have to say
on any subject"
The Joint Citizens Committee now
announced its approval of the single
head plan with the important proviso
that the Governor be elected by the
people of the District" At this meet
ing of the committee there developed
definite movement for District Suf-
fra9e. The original proposal became
Smothered in the discussion over the
question Of local franchise
In the meantime. there was a change
in the national administration. PreSi-
dent Taft began to give some thought
to District affairs and finally an
nounced his opposition to his prede-
cessor'S suggestions for changing the
form of District government
Tafts attitude was in line with that
already manifest in CongreSs-and
nothing more was heard of the single
executive proposal until the advent of
another Roosevelt administration.
