At conclusion of the mornings
business, c. c. Cappell of the Ma
tional Symphony Orchestra and R.
D. w. Connor, national archivist,
spoke.
Outlining the growth of the Ma
tional Symphony Orchestra, Mr..
Cappell explained some of its objec-
tives which include approval of
school authorities to present regular
concerts to school children during
school hours Over 5000 children
have attended concerts this year,
Mr.. Cappell stated. A survey of the
teachers, he added showed that at
least 80 per cent favor the presenta-
ton Of concerts during school time.
The purposes and functions of
the Achives Building were de-
scribed by Mr. Connor, who declared
that, contrary to an opinion re-
Gently expressed, 'the documents
deposited in the National Archives
Building are not dead but very
much alive. The records of what
has taken place" he said, guide the
actions of the future"
One of the duties of staff men,
bers, he explained, is to put docu-
ments into condition for public use.
Evening star., 1939-02-03

In the first year of the institu-
tons existence, the majority of
those who consulted documents
were Government officials, but there
is a growing tendency on the part
of private scholars to use the Gov
ernment archives, he said.
Mr. Cappell was introduced by
Miss Blanche Polkinhorn. chairman
of the. music section, and Mr.. Con-
nor was introduced by Mrs. z. G.

their efforts to ind ct long last .
most practical far-reaching solu-
ton to this dimcult and knotty
problem. Such . solution would bring
great honor to the American peo-
pie.
For this purpose very frankly the
holy father invites those separated
from the church to return to the
see Of Peter recalling with pleasure
the noble sentiments expressed by
many of them at the death Of his
glorious predecessor and Ut his own
elevation to the throne Of Saint
Peter.
Concluding his words Of fatherly
exhortation. the august pontin en-
courages bishops to persevere in
theft sacred apostolate full Of con-
fidence In the help Of God, prepared
to labor, build and strengthen the
battlement of faith against assaults
Of the enemy Of Christianity and
lead individuals, families and the
Nation to observe the command
ments Of God 30 that the kingdom
Of Christ may happily reign among
them. =

the cramped limits Of rationalism
or naturalism. This cannot continue
without dread consequences.
Here the holy father has written
most touchingly Of dignity, holiness
and sweet unrun1ed beauty OF the
Christian family, source Of 30 much
good, rich in 30 much happiness. In
such . family parents and children
are united by that tender bond Of
respect and love, the real comfort
Of life.
Let those who have the care Of
souls be earnest In preaching the
sanctity Of Christian marriage one
and indissoluble, the strongest bar
rier against the evils and dangers
Of mixed marriages and the disas-
trous results Of the practice Of
divorce.
Priests should continue to in
crease their knowledge Of sacred
human science so as to become able
ministers In the gospel OF redemp-
ton.
H1ppy Over Use Of Press, Radio.
The laity, too, who are active in
Catholic Action should attain Chris
tan education and culture suitable
to their ONCE Of being In true
sense co-workers with the clergy.
The august pontin is very happy
the American press and radio is
used so effectively for the spread OF
religion. This result will better be
insured by very real, consistent fol-
lowing of the counsels Of ecclesiasti-
cal authority.
Speaking of education in htera-
ture, science and the arts holy ia
ther expresses a great interest in
colleges and Catholic universities,
especially that of Washington, al
ready blessed with success founded
as it was by Leo XIII and hon.
ored by Plus XII of happy memory.
Particular satisfaction is found In
the proposal to build in Rome q
new more suitable college for young
candidates for priesthood who come
from America to receive their priest
~ formation close to the see Of
Peter. OF supreme importance final
" in the mind of the holy father is
the social question which even in
America causes disturbance>andu I'M
rest. The principles of Christian
ethics must generously be reduced
to practice II the conflict between
capital and labor, between rich and
poor be solved in justice and char

tan spirit is holy and honorable;
wealth carries with it heavy respon-
sibility because of its obligations to

Text Of EncycIicoI Summary
Pope Plus XII Expresses Greetings to U. S.
On Anniversary Of Founding Of Diocese
~ the Associated press.

By the Associated Press.
VATICAN CITY, Nov. 1.-THE
teri OF the official summary of Pope
Plus XlTs escyclicdl:.
Taking occasion Of the fact that
$50 years ago Pope Plus vi created
In Baltimore the first diocese Of the
United States, naming the Most
Rev. John Carroll. an American
citizen, the first bishop, the august
pontin is very happy to express his
ahectionate regard for the American
people.
At that time, following upon the
War of Revolution, the Nation was
passing through a critical period Of
exhaustion and poverty. In a very
provindentia1 way, the country was
restored to prosperity and made
great by George Washington, who
it Is a pleasure to recall-was united
to the first bishop of the United
States in bonds Of affection and
esteem. Groups Of priests forced
by persecution to find refuge In the
United States contributed in very
particular way to progress Of the
Catholic cause; some of these priests
became bishops, whose wise and
energetic ministry won for them the
gratitude Of the church.
Pope Leo XIII on the occasion of
the second centenary, expressed his
Joy ut the consoling increase of
Catholic faith in that country, di-
recting to the hierarchy an encycn-
cal letter, "Longinqua ocean," in
which he also pointed out new paths
Of safe progress.
Catholic Activity Developed.
The Holy Father, reamrming the
affection shown by his predecessor, is
happy to call attention to a more
recent development Of Catholic ac-
tivity during the last so years.
Through the grace of the holy
spirit, remarkable life of Christian
devotion is to be seen everywhere,
filling churches, drawing throngs to
the eucharistic table, increasing the
number of houses Of closed retreats,
leading many to the priesthood or to
religious life, 10 ecclesiastical
provinces, lis dioceses, almost a
hundred seminaries, countless
churches, monasteries, colleges,
orphanages and hospitals bear wit
ness to life Of intense vigor.
Associations founded in the in
terests Of missions all, the
Society for Propagation of the
Faith-point to maturity In Cath
Ole thought and are q sure guaran-
tee of q rich harvest of souls among
infidels. The Pope is pleased to
mention the Catholic Church Elk
tension Society, the Catholic Near
East Welfare Association, the In
dian and Negro Mission which he
recommends, emphasizing in par
ticular the altogether necessary

apostolate among Negroes, entrust-
ed to America by providence.
Catholic Schools. /.
Another source Of pleasure to the
holy father are Catholic schools Of
every grade, organized with great
wisdom and supported by uberality
Of the faithful; also diocesan asso.
Citations Of charity that are 80 quick
to recognize Christ living In the
person Of the poor.
To this list he is happy to add
different organizations Of Catholic
action, Sodalities OF Our Blessed
Mother, confraternities Of Christian
doctrine that have already reaped
rich harvest and likewise the So
ciety of the Holy Name, that re-
vered leader of men In the prac-
tice Of religion and reverence for
God. He makes special reference
to the National Catholic Welfare
Conference that has proved Of great
help to bishops in varied fields OF
apostolic work.
Many of the organizations the
holy father had the happiness OF
knowing personally when In Oc-
tober, 1896, he visited America, a
visit that made a happy and lasting
impression.
In the presence of so much good
accomplished the august pontin
cannot but render due thanks above
all to the God of mercies, but he
recognizes also that the good &C
complished Is due to the wise and
laborious activity Of bishops and
their hocks and in particular to the
zeal Of the clergy and of religious
communities of men and women, to
whom he wishes to pay his august
tribute of praise.
Obstacles to Overcome.
He recalls the obligation every
Christian has of being a jealous
apostle. The world today, given
over as 1t is wholly to the interests
and comforts of this life, presents
many obstacles to the spread Of
the kingdom of Christ, but these
obstacles should not smother or
quench its sound love of God and
the desire for eternal things &C.
cording to spirit of gospel.
Religion Ignored in Schools.
Most far-reaching of the bitter
source of evils today almost every
where is ignorance Of God and dis
regard Of His commandments or
their imperfect observance. Hence
exaggerated es0s SIN, thirst for
pleasure, immodesty in dress, ava
rice for power, hungering after
riches, neglect of poor, breaking
down of family life, levity regard
ing marriage. birth control and neg
lect of duty to ones country. The
holy father is grieved that in so
many schools in the United States
Christian religion is ignored and
human knowledge confined within

their enterprises so as to be able to

1T would not be the first time
that persons with Interior motives

1ntramural squabble No. at pres
ent goes on between Secretary Ickes
and Senator Pittman of Nevada,
chairman of tbs Senate Foreign
Relations Committee. It is over
boat and picnic concessions on
Boulder Dam reservoir on the COL
orado River.
The only thing these two impor-
tant public officials have in COM
mon is hatred of Hitlerism, which
they express often and forcefully.
Next to Hitler. 1t would seem they
dislike each other most.
The affair over Lake Mead (Which
IS Boulder Dam reservoir) is their
second battle Of the Marne. The
first was over the confirmation Of
Ebert K. Burlew as Undersecretary
Of Interior. Ickes wanted him. He
had had long experience in the de-
partment. Senator P1ttman de-
nounced him as unsuitable for such
q post. They fought that out in
Public Lands Committee and in the
Senate. Secretary 1ckes won.
The second battle began when
Pittman proposed to annex part Of
the public domain about Lake Mead
as a recreation ground for Nevada.
Boulder Dam backs up water In
precipitous Colorado Canyon for
100 miles. A few miles back of the
dam, one arm of this lake reaches
out into Nevada along the Vegas
Wash, within 10 miles Of desert
bound Las Vegas 10000 population),
in southernmost Nevada. There are
2,610 square miles of Federally
owned public domain around the
reservoir. Senator Pittman intro
duced a bill setting aside II miles
Of it as State park. His IL miles
included the outreaching arm Of the
lake in Vegas Wash.
Boulder City Opposes Plan.
The idea was for the State to set
up resort on the lake shore, at
tract patrons from far and near, as
well as make an outing spot where
Las Vegans could sail boats, fish
and picnic.
Las Vegans indorsed the plan.
So did the State legislature Bitter
ly opposed was diminutive Boulder
City, created by the six companies
which built the dam and now sup
ported in part by the boat conces-
sions at the dam.
Secretary 1ckes, out West on tour,
inspected the park site. Into his
ear were poured tales which Senator
Pittman says were conjured up by
Boulder City concessionaires to
block the State park.
The surprised Senate Public Lands
Committee heard Ickes reports and
ordered hearings, putting Senator
Pittman at the head of them.
1T would appear" Mr.. Ickes wrote,
that as result Of the recent clean
up Of anti-social conditions in the
city Of Los Angeles, a number of
gamblers who formerly flourished
there have betaken themselves to
Las Vegas. It is rumored that they
have set about to monopolize the
gambling concerns of that city. 1t

House Committee
Hears Testimony
On Florida Canal
Conflicting Views Given
On Military VoIue Of
$2oo, 900, 900 Waterway

The House Rivers and Harbors
Committee today continued to hear
testimony on the proposal to resur-
rect the Florida ship canal project,
after conflicting views had been ex-
pressed yesterday as to the military
value Of the 5000, ,000, 900 waterway.
A letter from Charles Edison, AS
.sistant Secretary of the Navy, ad-
vised the committee that lit is the
opinion of the Navy Department
that by shortening the distance and
providing an additional route for
sea-going vessels between the At
lantic Ocean and the Gulf Of Mex
leo, the Atlantic-Gu ship canal
would be of definite value during
war in the shipment of necessary
material for both military and COM
mercial use, as well as for the pas
sage Of naval vessels If sufficient
draft is provided"
Representative Peterson, Demo-
crat, Of Florida, an opponent of the
canal plan, however, read COM
munication. dated April, 1887, from
Admiral William S. Pye, as acting
chief Of naval operations, in which 1t
was said "the military value of the
canal would be almost negligible"
At the same time the House Mer-
chant Marine Committee received
an offer of right of way for a new
canal between the Atlantic and Pa
cif1c, but there was string to it.
Robert F. H. Borden of Brookline,
Mass, former shipbuilder, told the
committee he owned land only $50
miles from the Panama Canal
In which second canal could be
built in two years.
When the committee members
asked whether he intended to donate
the route or expected some re-
muneration, Mr.. Borden replied:
"Oh, I'll discuss terms later. but
I want little assistance from the
Government In constructing a refin-
cry to produce gasoline"
Proposed waterways across Mica
ragua and the Isthmus of Tehaunte-
pee in Mexico, being studied by the
committee, would require from 10
to Is years to complete. A second
canal has been described as essential
for NATIONAL defense.
