all. Just think of it-66,O ,OOO, 900 souls in these United States of ours refuse God homage and wor- ship and live practically as pagans.
 Some of these are business men and their code of morality often is DO OTHERS FIRST THAT THEY MAY NOT DO YOU" Again-"KEEP UP A CERTAIN VENEER GUISE OF RESPECT ABILITY AND YOU WILL EN- JOY THE ESTEEM OF YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS." Others are in politics and is it any wonder that we have graft-scan- dals in national, state and city governments? When religion, and its external principles of justice and integrity are not the predom- mating influence in their lives?
 Impurity
 How explain the ever increasing ravages of irnpurity among our young people, yes, even among the married, thereby attacking the sanctity of the home, mocking the sacredness of marriage. How ac- count for the ever-icreansing curse of divorce, hailed by the irrelig- ious as the man-given remedy for a God-made mistake. Marriage should be broken, cries the ire ligious world, Jesus Christ and His teaching to the contrary notwith- standing. The immoral book, the filthy, obscene pictures, the sen- suous movie with its every por- trayed sex theme-the spicy play with its so-called strip tease act how account for their number and attraction?
 Gentlemen, it is because of the low ideals, or rather the lack of ideals to be found in an irreligious and Goddess world. And it is pre- cisely this-the mad craze for for bidden pleasures, the corruption in governments and the oppression of the poor and the working man by the capitalists, consequent upon lthe lack of Christian principles that Communism was born. Oh, if tyrannical governments and greedy capitalists would have only hearkened to Mother Church, the: defender and protector of the poor and the workingman. If they would only have listened to Pope Leo XIII and his successors in the Chair of Peter and paid the work ing man a decent living wage, Communism would be non-exist- ent today. But now is spreading like wild fire through the na- tions, threatening the overthrow and the destruction of all Chris tian civilization. For what is Communism? Nicholas Lenin, the father of present day Communism, defines it as nothing else than power based upon force, and lim- ited by no kind of law and by ab- solutely no rule. The three main elements in the Communistic sys- tenn are: First, the denial of God and the suppression of religion, especially the Catholic Church. Second, the abolition of all private property. Third, the stirring up of hatred and enmity between the various classes of society, for in-

 Rise Up
 Therefore, men, rise up, gird yourself, put on the armor of gen. uine Christian manhood, take your stand in the front lines Of battle in defense of Mother Church, who's very life is being threatened by the monster Com munism. Take your stand before the whole world and tell it that you live loving and fearing God, that you live in defense of the life and honor, the destiny and fair fame of your Mother, Holy Church, and the story of your fidelity, the story of your loyalty, the story of your heroism will be told and retold over and over again in Heaven.

Last night Senator OMahoney of
Wyoming, member of the Senate
Judiciary Committee, delivered radio
address In which he discussed particu-
larly the Supreme Courts recent de-
cisions, and gave his opinion as to
their effect on future legislation deal
ing with industry and labor. He
strongly urged the passage of his bill
for Federal incorporation OF industry.
The Wyoming Senator linked with
the Supreme Court decisions the fact
that Government revenues have fallen
below estimates, and that there are
still, according to the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, 9,722,0OO persons in
the United States without normal
work in industry"
Unemployment Problem.
Federal expenditures are to be re-
duced," said O'Mahoney, because
deficits are increasing. But unemploy-
ment remains an unsolved problem.
There Is a third circumstance that
must not be permitted to escape pub
lie attention. It is that the great
corporations Of the country are once
more making large profits. The Ma
tional City Bank OF New York has
reported this month that last year
1900 manufacturing and trading cor
porations in the United States made
an average profit of 10 lilo per cent
on the book value Of all their COM
mon and preferred stock. To state 1t
another way, corporate prosperity has
been restored, but unemployment re-
mains, and the Federal Government
cannot, within its revenues, supply
made-work at even security wages for
the millions who are still without
employment.

preme Court have been regarded by

Court proposal, with several members
on the fence. It is regarded as likely
that there will be enough Senators
who are supporting the Presidents
bill, added to those strongly against
any increase in the size of the court,
to defeat all compromise amendments
tn the committee discussions. If that
Is the case, the question will finally
come on reporting the bill as 1t
stands-on the Supreme Court. One
Senator who has been opposed to the
President expressed the opinion that
reported 10 to 8. Senator Ashurst
reiterated his confidence yesterday
that the bill would be reported and
passed.
Once the measure has reached the
floor Of the Senate, long debate Is
expected, perhaps running two months.
After some weeks Of debate, proposals
for q compromise may be expected to
come strongly to the fore. Senator
McCarran of Nevada, member Of
the committee, already has offered as
substitute for the Presidents pro-
posal an amendment calling for the
definite appointment of two additional
justices of the Supreme Court-and
no more. Such plan, it was said,
may be found to have considerable
support when the showdown comes.
The hearing tomorrow will open
with Alan Linburg, a New York
lawyer, on the stand Chairman Ash
urst yesterday received a telegram
from Catherine Curtis, chairman of
the Women's National Committee for
Hands Off the Supreme Court, ask
ing that her group be given chance
to appear before the committee hear
tngs close. She said in her telegram:
women have shared immeasurably
IN the building of our Nation and are
deeply stirred over so grave an issue
which demands full and free express
sion from the thousands of women in
all the States of the Union whose pro-
tests we hold and who are vitaIly
concerned with the integrity OF the
American form Of government"
Would Stop At Once.
The committee, meeting in execu-
tive session yesterday, considered
only the question of when the hear
ings should be closed. Senator
Hughes Of Delaware had had pending
for some time a motion to end the
hearings forthwith. After a dis
cussion in the committee, however,
he accepted amendments offered by
Senators McCarran and Pittman Of

many as an insuperable obstacle
to any effective legislation by Congress
dealing with wages and hours in pro-
ducing or manufacturing industries.
This barrier has now been struck
down by the high tribunal itself in
the memorable decisions of this month,
decisions which mark the end of one
era and the beginning Of another.
"The great significance OF the Wag-
ner act decisions is that production
and manufacture can no longer be
held to be outside the authority Of
the Federal Government, but that
they can be brought within that power
whenever the facts show they actually
affect interstate commerce. In other
words the Supreme Court has opened
its eyes to realities, and on the basis
OF actual fact has finally broken
through the barrier of legalistic OBJ
struction. This is gain that cannot
now be lost, because in this decision,
the most important in our generation,
the court has literally burned its legal
bridges behind it,
Now Congress may proceed to the
permanent solution Of the unemploy-
ment problem, the problem of agri-
culture and, equally important, the
problem of Government finance. In
deed, Congress must proceed to these
tasks"
Interference" Denied.
Advocating the passage of his bill
for Federal incorporation, O'Mahoney
said: "All necessary provisions may be
written into the charters so that every
one concerned will know his rights.
There need not be one bit more Fed
eral interference after the charter and
license is granted than there is State
interference now after the State char
ter is granted National charters and
licenses provide the only practicable
means Of preventing monopolistic
practices and preserving flduciary in
tegrity. Every other possible method
has been tried and has failed"
Senator Wheeler Of Montana, an op-
ponent of the court bill, in a statement
made yesterday protesting a proposed
increase in the land bank interest
rate, attacked packing" the Supreme
Court. He said it was not necessary
to pack the Supreme Court or to
change the Constitution in order to
help the farmers Of this country get
out from under the load Of debt they
have been carrying"
