Archbishop Cur|ey
Decries Hysteria in
Sensible Defense
Sees Nation Harmed by
Fear 1hot Attack on
u. Is Imminent

The United States should be pre-
pared in a sensible way" to defend
itself, but its citizens at this time
should avoid "hysteria," Archbishop
Michael j. Curley of the Catholic
Archdiocese of Baltimore and
Washington declared in statement
to The Evening Star.
Voicing the hope that American
troops would never have to cross
an ocean again Ito fight for any
one" he urged that efforts for
preparedness should be directed to-
ward a strong and effective de-
Tense"
II have met people in the cities
Of Baltimore and Washington"
Archbishop Curley said, who feel
that we are going to be attacked
from some point near or far in
few days. I have met mothers who
are worrying about their young
sons who are coming near the age
Of 20. They are truly worried and
that Is q condition that does not do
our country much good.
Millions Talking War.
Let us have the preparedness
which is necessary to safeguard the
well being at any time Of our great
country, but today there are mil
lions of people who are not talking
preparedness-they are talking war,
so much 50 that We have 1t for
breakfast, dinner and supper. 1t is
not q pleasant affair and how much
of it has been stirred up for poll
tical purpose, am not in position
to say"
At the same time he voiced dis
approval Of military service for cler-
ical students and ministers of all
faiths. An amendment to the con-
scription bill carrying such an ex-
emption has passed the Senate.
THE Catholics of the Archdiocese
Of Baltimore and Washington will
not be remiss in the performance of
their duty to their country" he said.
but we do believe that the spirit OF
religion must be kept in the hearts
of the people and to do SO We need
not only ministers of the Gospel
who are in actual work, but we need
also to continue preparing others to
take their places"
Would Safeguard Religion.
Archbishop Curley, who explained
that he was speaking as an indi-
vidual and not for the Catholic
hierarchy, said that preparedness
was necessary, not only to protect
our democracy but to protect re-
ligion. which had suffered at the
hands Of dictators.
II hope and pray" he continued,
that We shall never send our boys
again across the ocean to fight for
any one. We did it back in 1917
and 1918 and got mighty little
thanks for it. I feel, however, that
we of this Nation ought to be pre-
pared in a sensible way to protect
our own country and our own in
terests, but I do not think that We
should permit ourselves to be driven
into a condition Of hysteria as If our
attackers were coming to our shores
tomorrow.
we have published to the world
our condition of unpreparedness and
the facts speak for themselves"

The telegram sent to MCGUIRE yes
terday afternoon advised the sur
plus commodities official Of the steps
taken by the city and county gov
ernments and asked that the survey
be made as soon as possible in order
that the plan can be placed into
use here.
Under the stamp plan much of
the red tape involved in the present
distribution of surplus commodities
will be removed. Stamps will be
sold by the welfare department and
the two varieties of stamps will then
be used for the purchase of foods
and produce from any Wilmington
grocery store. In turn the grocers
can turn the stamps over to banks
in the city, who have agreed to co.
operate in the plan by having the
stamps turned into cash.
Commissioner Wade said that in
addition to making the task Of dis
tributing surplus commodities easier
the system would help the small
truck farmers in the sale Of then
produce, will be an aid to the per
sons now receiving the produce, en-.
aiding them to get more foods ano
