Catholic Hierarchy attacks
Mexico for Church Repression,
Far-Reaching Consequences Seen Re.
sulting From Conditions-Sodalities
Fix December 9 as Day of Prayer.

The trouble the Catholic Church is
experiencing in Mexico drew fire from
two quarters here yesterday.
A statement declaring "far-reach-
ing consequences" may result from
conditions south of the Rio Grande
was issued by the American hierarchy,
three cardinals, nine archbishops and
Sc bishops joining in support of
bill of particulars.
Concurrently, members Of the So
dalities of II local Catholic colleges
and high schools joined in a protest
against the situation in Mexico and
designated December as a day of
prayer here in behalf of their CO.
religionists. The protest is to go to the
Mexican Ambassador.
Religious Liberty "Mockery."
Among their charges of "anti-
Christian tyranny" made by the hier-
archy were: Reduction in numbers
of priests until liberty of religious
worship is "a mockery";; denial Of
constitutional rights to clergymen;
confiScation of property; denial of
liberty of religious education as well
as worship, and enforced self-exile of
active Catholics.
Their resolution warned that "the
full consequences of the persecution
Of the church and of Catholics in
Mexico can scarcely be foreseen at the
present time"
They cannot but eventually be very
grave" it added. Those who must
flee from their own country into ours
bring with them a problem to which
We cannot be indifferent"
At the same time the churchmen
noted gratifying response to their
previous campaign to remove alleged
obScenity from the movies, and
warned that the League of Decency,
organized to invigorate the drive,
would be continuingly diligent.
Decrease Number of Priests.
In their bill of particulars on the
Mexican situation. they said:
Beginning Systematically at the
end of 1881, the priests permitted to
minister to the people in Mexico
were decreased to such a ridiculouSly
small number as to make of liberty
Of religious worship mockery.
I'm the federal district comprising
1900, 600 Catholics. only 25 priests
are permitted to minister.
MANY states have prohibited priests
altogether, for example, Tabasco,
Zacatecas. Sonora, Chiapas, Vera
Cruz, Campeche, Queretaro.

This Changing World
Great Britain's Trade Diplomats Fail to
Impress Japanese.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

inspection of the Japanese industrial
centers the members of the delegation
realized that Japan IS more dete rmined
than ever to continue the dumping
policy.
So the commercial diplomats re-
turned to London with somewhat
gloomy report about the prospects
of commercial understanding with
Japan.
Sir John Simon still believed that
the Japanese might be induced to
change their tune if Great Britain
were to uphold their national policy
of naval parity with the United
States. This was an acceptable policy
provided Great Britain did not have
to suffer from 1t. But when it was
realized that the japanese intended
to build as much as the United
States and that the Toxic government
was not after a face-saving device
which would give it mere diplo-
matte success, the British admiralty
started figuring out what all this
would mean.
And they discovered that tuith
Japan building up to parity NTH
the United States and Uith the
United States building up to the
5:3 ratio, the British ,0ould become
inuolDed in a naval race iUhich they
neither tOant nor can afford.
Furthermore, the Australians and
the Canadians were none too pleased
at the prospects of a new Japanese
British understanding. 1t might suit
Great Britain to obtain commercial
advantages by placating the japanese
politically, but this certainly does not
suit Australia.

" HE British government seems to
have undergone lately change
of heart in regard to Japan.
i The official denialS that there
has never been an idea of re-
newing the old BritiSh-JapaneSe alli-
ance would have been taken with
grain of salt a few weeks ago. Now
they seem plausible. For the time
being, those who are opposed to a
Japanese-British entente, that is to
say the admiralty and some members
of the British government, have the
whip hand and are being helped by
the brutally frank attitude of the
japanese government, which does not
want to yield on the question OF naval
parity.
X X X X
The British industrialists have been
pressing their government to improve
the Japanese-Britisf relations. This,
for two reasons: They wanted to come
to an understanding with the Japanese
in order to divide the markets in the
Far East and wanted to get on the
ground floor in Manchuria.

on the part of many to the life and
worth of those principles on which
our American Republic is founded" "

The campaign for cleaner motion
pictures was discussed at this session
also, the participants pledging them
selves to further it. Father LeBuffe's
recommendation that this same move

likewise was approved.
There are dirty dances, and dirty
magazines and dirty shows on the So
called legitimate stage, and improper

With the blessings of Sir John
Simon, a delegation belonging to the
Federation of British Industries went
to the Far East to see what could be
done in the way of business in
Manchuria.
In order to gain the approval Of the
Japanese they went first to Toxic. The
members of that delegation were in
fluential men in the United Kingdom.
A peer of the realm was at the head.
The Japanese Emperor, who does not
receive every Tom, Dick and Harry,
received them. wined them and dined
them Friendly speeches were made
and broad hints were given that these
commercial travellers were pioneers
who would foster better understand
ing between the mighty British Empire
and the Empire of the Rising Sun.
The delegation returned to Great
Britain, more or less empty handed.

sands of tons of scrap iron, and got

Japan might make some elbow room
for the British in their newly ac-
quired possession, but not uncondi-
tionally. Their own goods must be
first received on easier terms in the
British Empire. OF course, if the Brit
ish capitalists wanted to place some
of their surplus funds in japanese
industries, they were welcome to it
and will be given fair share OF the
profits.
This is what the delegation Of the
F. B. I. was told and the British did
not relish the situation. Capital is
always welcome everywhere; the
British wanted to sell goods, not
money.
There was no sign either that the
Japanese could be induced to abandon
the present underselling policy in this
community where the British goods
reigned supreme in the past. On

Fortunately fer her, her fathers
sister had intervened and instead Of
going to co-educational college
where she might have majored in her
fathers favorite subject, she attended
a good girls school and her interest
had been diverted to literature. How

Browns $3.50 month. She set de-

was paying cash for everything and
that it amounted to much more than
his salary.
Jenny began some investigations Of
her own. She could learn nothing
definite but she had a strong hunch
that she knew where Brown had got

ten his money. She acted on this
hunch in true feminine style. She
descended on Linda, posed as the in

told Linda that William was deceiving
her, that he had accepted bribe from
the Madden Construction people with
the understanding he was to pass their
work at the new high school, whether
or not the material used was up to
specifications.
Linda, always Jealous Of Jenny,
even though she had succeeded in
marrying Jenny's man, fared up in
his defense She said William hadn't
deceived her, she had known it all
along. That he had discussed it with
her and she had argued him to accept
so they could be married Immediately.

This William Brown is handsome
