reads: mo religious test shall ever
be required as qualification to any
office or public trust under the
United States"
On the morning of March 4 there
appeared in the press an article by
Ernest K. Lindley, biographer of
President Roosevelt and friendly
commentator, in which the Presi-
dent was quoted as having told
prominent member of the Demo-
cratic party of the House of Repre-
sentatives that while Postmaster
General James A. Farley had per-
formed yeoman service for the party
1t was out of the question to con-
slider him for the vice presidential
nomination because he is Catholic
and too many people in America
would vote against Catholic for
Vice President as many did in 1923
when Al Smith was the presidential
nominee of the Democratic party.
Himself Free From Prejudice.
Mr.. Roosevelt had press confer
ence on March when the Lindley
article was called to his attention but
nothing was said by the President in
reputation of the sentiment al
legedly blocking the path of Jim
Farley to the vice presidential nomi-
nation. The President is so free
from religious prejudice himself
something he manifested not only by
his readiness to run in 1923 for Gov
ernor of New York on the same
ticket with Al Smith and by his acts
many times since then-that it was
a matter of considerable surprise to
find the President silent. The Incl
dent hurt Postmaster General Far
ley, who as the President admitted
in the Lindley report of the inter-
view, has done more politically for
Mr. Roosevelt than anybody else III
America.
During the last week end the
Postmaster General made a speech
in Washington at the annual din
ner of the Friendly Sons of st
Patrick and it was broadcast over
a Nation wide hookup. The address
was neither partisan nor political,
but it had in it a personal touch
which did not escape general atten-
ton. Mr.. Farley said:
I'VE must never permit the ideals
of this republic to sink to point
where every American father and
mother, regardless of race, color or
creed, cannot look proudly into the
cradle of their newborn babe and
see a future President of the United
States.
Would Have Powerful Effect.
Such a statement, if it had been
made by President Roosevelt and
echoed by men and women of prom
inence who are not Catholics them
selves, would have had more pow
erful effect probably in removing
by the simple process of education
concerning the letter and the spirit
of the Constitution the prejudice to
which the Lindley article referred.
Mr. Roosevelt still has the oppor-
tunity to use the moral force of his
high office to help eliminate from
the thinking of any considerable
section of the electorate that preju-
dice which is violate of the Con-
stitution itself He may be con-
sidered to have unwittingly done an
injustice to a member of his cabinet
and an intimate friend, but this in

possible some form of emphatic
reputation by the White House of
the doctrine as will put the pro-
ponents of such prejudice to shame
The Constitution grants the privi-
leges Of high Office to anybody, ire
spective of race or religion or color,
because the Constitution exacts the
obligations of citizenship from all
irrespective of race or creed or color
Only a modicum of political courage
is needed for public men to utter
these truths and to fight for them
for in no other way will it become
impossible for such prejudice to
grow.

itself is secondary as against the i'm
preston which too many people will
get, namely that the President rec
ognizes religious prejudice in politics
is here to stay and that he does
not intend to do anything to remove
it.
Way Open for Reputation.
In fairness to the President, 1t
should be stated that he has uni
formly declined to comment on artl-
cles purporting to give his views on
candidates. for President or Vice
President in the 1910 contest. but
the incident which now has been
publicly noticed by the Postmaster
General himself would seem to make
