that Mayor La GuaIQld HgIlto 4OI.
Keyed to lower pitch, Repre-
sentative Griswold lacks Mayor
La Guardia's boundless energy and
unuuenchable enthusiasm. This
is not to be held against Glenn,
because no other man on the
American scene today possesses
Mr.. La Guardia's fire. A great or
ganizer and leader of men, Mr..
La Guardia inspires others TO blaze
the new paths with him. Mr..
Griswold neither leads nor follows;
he goes alone.
Glenn divides his constituents
into two classes-his enemies and
his friends. He believes in the
ancient political rule: Punish
your enemies and reward your
friends He considers that he
was sent to congress by the votes
of the small farmers, the small
business men. the war veterans
and the laborers.
He voted for agricultural re-
lief measures. He voted against
the national recovery act, the
keystone in the Roosevelt pro-
gram.
It's frameup on the small
business man" said Glenn. refer
ring to the NRA code authority
setup. which he declares enables
the big corporations to dominate
their respective industries and
grind down small competitors.
A MOTHER feature of the ma
N tional recovery act which
Mr.. Griswold condemned was the
$3.50 O.OOOO0O for public works,
not that he objected to spending
that amount Of money for public
works. but because he objected to
the method of raising the money
floating of interest bearing,
tax-eXempt bonds. Like his &c
centric colleague, Finly Gray.
Representative Griswold believes
in the issuance of nOn-interest-
bearing notes to finance emer-
gency expenditures. a practice
which President Roosevelt says
would destroy the governments
credit.
One thing that came out Of
that piece of legislation won
Representative Griswold's ap-
proval-the CWA.
I do not know of anything in
the recovery program that has
helped as much as the CWA,' he
said in a speech before the house.
The small-tOWn merchant just
before Christmas was in the
depths of despair. The much
talked-of prosperit-' had not come
to him. for no one in the small
town had any money to buy and
no way to procure it. Then came
the CWA. 1t was a Christmas
gift to every small town and city.
1t made a bit of Santa Claus
where otherwise there would have
been none"
The tragedy is" he said in the
same speech. that we will eventu-
ally, through tax legislation, force
these same destitute people to
make the payment. They have
nothing, you say. They can not
pay because they have nothing.
But the holders of these bonds
will find a way. They will invent
a way to squeeze blood out Of a
turnip. They already talk of a

In the meantime Bernadette had disappeared
from public life Feeling that her work was
done, refusing the gifts which pilgrims often
left at her door, she begged to be allowed to
enter a convent and notwithstanding her feeble
health, she accepted as novice by the
Sisters of Charity in NeverS.
She never returned to LourdeS never visited
the sanctuary which had been erected through
her. fearing that her presence might detract
the attention of the pilgrims from the primary
object the glory and worship of God.
Her companions said that she was quiet and
reserved in the accomplishment of her duties,
very efficient in the care of the sick and in no
way inclined to exaltation and nervous frances.
She died in April, 1879 and almost Immediately
after her death the fame OF her SalntlineSS
which had grown during her lifetime spread
far beyond the small corner of the world in
which she had spent her days.
I IKE few Catholic Sanctuaries, LOurdeS has
L grown and prospered. The ife-sized
statute of Our Lady, which, standing in the
grotto on the spot where Bernadette saw her
vision, was made from the description given
by the seer.

cation the pilgrims repeat, May Thy will be

return year after year in order to benefit by
the inspiring spiritual atmosphere which
surrounds the sanctuary.
That Bernadette SoubirouS be recognized
among the blessed members of the church, has
ever since her death been the pious wish of
thousands of pilgrims. But in order to be

miraculous cures obtained through the inter-

mother what she had seen. Her mother was
frightened fearing for the health of her deli
cate child She told her to tell her beads
and pray for quiet rest
Bernadette never doubted that the vision
would return and had been sent by God. AS
soon as her work was done an irresistible force
attracted her to the grotto, there to remain in
prayer and once more have the ecstasy Of
beholding the white figure.
CHE was sometimes followed by pious women,
- also by skeptcs and curiosity seekers who
did not anything unusual in the grotto
but looked with wonder on Bernadette as she
gazed in rapture at something that only her
eyes could see.
Once she had become stronger she sent
to a convent school, and instructed by her
teachers not to give any Importance to vision
which might simply be the fruit of her imagi-
nation or even temptation created by the
evil
If the vision was really Our Lady. Berna-
dette believed, she would speak some word and
give evidence, the parish priest told her. ad-
visng her to work hard at school and pray on
Sundays in the church.
That was not the extent of her discourage
ment. She was even threatened with impriSon-
ment by the police on the charge of miSrepre-
sentation But when she was crOssquestioned
she gave so accurate description OF her Wis
ion she was so simple and so sincere, that even
those VINO had no belief whatever in the
supernatural were convinced of her good faith
and honesty.
During the II years spent by Bernadette in
Lourdes since her first vision the Lady of the
Grotto appeared to her 18 times. On three
different occasions she heard words distinctly
spoken in her own tongue Il am the 1mmacu-
late Conception the first and most i'm
pOrtant message.
Not many years before. the Sacred College
in Rome had declared that the Mother of God
was born immune from original sin, but the
theological term of Immaculate Conception
was totally unknown to Bernadette, who could
hardly read and write. She repeated the mys-
terious message all the way from the grotto
to the church. fearing that she might forget it
before telling the parish priest
He listened and gaZed in wonder at the
simple child.
Once she was told to approach and Scrape
the earth from the rock in order to drink the
health-giving water. Bernadette obeyed. al
though she saw water but soon she
touched the rock spring of clear water burst
FORTH and is seen to flow to this day into the
River Gave.
THE Lady of LOurdes further promised
health to those who would follow in Ber-
nadette's footsteps ordered the faithful to pray
for all sinners and seek the benfits of spiritual
life The message fell on fertile soil; it was
not only heard by Bernadette but she was able
to arouse the faith of those to whom she re-
peated it.
BY public subscription a chapel was built
above the grotto. pilgrims started to visit the
shrine they drank the water from the spring
and even built pools. enabling the sick to bathe
in it. Miraculous recoveries took place from

LOURDES france.
-@H HE seventy sixth anniversary of the
vision which made an obscure
French hamlet attain world renown
will be celebrated with unusual
Splendor in LourdeS on the 11th Of
February.
The mysterious grotto where the whte-clad
figure of Our Lady shines amid veritable
forest of lighted candles, the large church
above the grotto the pools in which the water
from the miraculous spring flows, will be
surrounded by thousands of pilgrims coming
from many lands to give thanks to God and
consecrate by their presence the neWly-pro-
claimed glory of Bernadette Soubirous. whose
name is so intimately associated with the story
of LOurdes to have become a living part OF
the famous sanctuary.
Twenty thousand pilgrims attended the
ceremony in st. Peters Church in Rome on
December g. during which the blessed sister
proclaimed a saint Few concentrations
in recent years have been so popular and ac-
companied by great devotional enthusiasm
the which glorified humble girl whose
pure and simple life was uneventful in itself
but whose message and absolute faith caused
a religious revival such is rarely recorded
in history.
Brrnadette was born in Lourdes in 1874 in
the hCmc OF poor peasants. On account OF her
delicate health she did not attend school in
her childhood, and spent her time in the fields
watching over the sheep.
On the 1lth of Feb, uary, 1853 she went
with her brothers to the banks of the River
Gave to pick up dried sticks and wood for the
family hearth. She had wandered at some
distance from her companions, and on reach
ing a grottO in which she had at times sought
shelter from rain with her flock she paused
to wait
AS is customary with the pious children of
Southern France, she began to tell her beads.
The sun had disappeared and soon the bells
would ring the "Angelus, inviting the faithful
to remember their evening prayer.
CUDDENLY she heard rumblng noise, like
~ thunder. There came a .ust of wind and
then more thunder. The other children, who
were not far away, said afterward that they
had not heard the sound. 1t reached the ears
of but Bernadette
The girl went on into the grotto. A golden
cloud took form before her eyes. Slowly, as
she watched, it dissolved-and in its place
stood the figure of divinely beautiful young
woman with blue eyes and golden hair, clad
in flowing white robes, her feet bare.
Bernadette, entranced, fell to her knees.
Her companions, failing to see what she had
seen or to hear what she had heard, were
frightened when they her actions. They
gathered about her asking what had happened
Trembling with exultation, the girl explained
The other children gaped at her. then looked
at one another They began to laugh and joke
trying to persuade her that she had seen
nothing. Then, beginning to be frightened
anew. they induced her to hurry away with
them.
Bernadette went home in silence to tell her

DURING recent decades the number of pill
grinls to go to Lourdes for healing has
been enormous, running lately to fully 600 900
annually. August is usually the month that
sees the biggest influx of the faithful.
Lourdes itself is interesting and pictur-
esque town, fitting setting for the shrine that
has made it famous.
From about 800 AID. to comparatively mod
ern times, the town was famous for its fortress.
A river, the Gave de Pau, divides the town into
an old and a new quarter. The old quarter il
on the right bank, its quaint-looking houses
surrounding a great rock on top of which
stands the fortress. In the center of the
fortress there is a heavy square donjon keep.
dating back to the fourteenth century.
A bridge connects the old quarter with the
new, and opens into an esplanade which leads
to the basilica, the Church of the Rosary and
the grotto.
Several religious communities in the United
States are named after Our Lady of Lourdes.
One, the sisters of the Third Order of st.
Francis, called "The Congregation of Our Lady
of Lourdes," has its headquarters IN Rochester.

factorily proved. and on the day OF the mn
maculate Conception St. Peters gigantic dome
was respendent in light, thus announcing to
the Eternal City and to the Catholic world that
another saint has been proclaimed.
And yet the greatest miracle of Bernadettes
lift is still the sanctuary in LourdeS. and the
inspiration which her simple story has given
during the last rs years. No one saw the Lady
of Lourdes with Bernadette's eyes, but her faith
made the vision something real and tangible to
many suffering nlortals.
A reproduction of the church and grotto of
Lourdes was donated to Pope Leo XIII by
French pilgrims and erected in the Vatican
gardens. Small copies of the famous statue
have found a place in almost every Catholic
home throughout the world and still
favorites among the customers of plaster-cut
vendors.
The books written about Lourdes could fill
a library The testimony of the faithful are
set off by the writings of those who see in the
recovereS nothing but cases of mental cures
rendered possible by the special atmosphere
surrounding the sanctuary.
That Bernadette's simple faith and the vision
described by her in February, 1858, should
have been influence for good and brought
comfort to many, is a fact on which the mem-
bers of all faiths agree.

NSL Protests Terror
Against Students in
British University

NEW YORK. National Stu
dent League has sent the following
letter to the British Embassy at
Washington:
Dear Sirs.
Frank Meyers. an American citi-
zen, and Jack Simons we're expelled
and several others we're suspended
from the London School of Eco
Monies for selling copies of the Stu
dent Vanguard after they had been
ordered not to. The previous issue
had contained a reference to a
member of the L. S. E. staff. a
reference implying that functions
belonging to him as adviser to colo
NAL students we're functions of a
police spy. The director forbade the
future sale of the issue. When he
was not obeyed, he expelled Frank
Meyers and Jack Simons and sus-
pended others. This action, the di-
rector states, was a breach of dis
cipline.
We have just heard that Frank
Meyers is in immediate danger of
being deported. We consider his ex-
pulsion from the L. S. E. a breach
Of students rights and demand his
immediate reinstatement, enabling
him to continue his studies at the
L. S. E., and removing him from
any danger of deportation.
Very truly yours,
