action Of the Chilean government
in sending greetings to Franco
Spain on the Fiesta Nacional de
Espana. a day set aside by Franco
to commemorate the beginning Of
the fascist revolt against the Span
ish Republic, was vigorously con-
demned this week by the Confeder-

Chilean public administration,
especially the foreign service, is
well known for containing many
pro-Axis elements" the CTCh
charged. Zone of the most out
standing examples is the chief of

Now that the checkup Of ceiling
prices in Allegany County is in the
last stage, the policing of the fixed
prices is left in the hands Of Mr..

Policing is not as difficult or as
undesirable as 1t sounds. Price con-

pockets of all housewives. It is i'm

and workers, shall furnish the polio
ing of ceiling prices.
In an interview recently with
Mrs. Delphia Parker, chairman Of
the price panel in this area, by an
officer of Maryland Labor Unity
Conference, Mrs. Parker said this
policing is very simple. and will
necessitate but q phone call or so,
from the many housewives of this
section.
Even spare parts for the many
household articles, such as washing
machines, refrigerators, irons
sweepers, ETC., have ceiling prices,
says Mrs. Parker.
AS soon as a housewife or any
prospective buyer becomes suspici-
Gus of a quoted price on any article,
all she or he need to do is go to
the nearest phone and call 4342,
Miss Wolford, or 1857, Miss Jones,
and ask the ceiling price. Mrs.

Rev. J. DOnnelly astern sky.
Again the easements Of heaven will
part and we shall hear the heavenly
song. Again the weatherbeaten
stable door will be thrown open and
the maiden mother will hold up her
newborn Son. Again the road to
Bethlehem will be crowded with
men weighted down with burden
of grief suddenly grown light.
Put Christ in Christmas and
again peace and the cloudless JOY
of childhood will come to troubled
hearts. Again We shall take courage
and go forward. We know again
that we are not alone. We have a
Savior. A Child who is God!
A THOUGHTFUL CHRISTMAS
It is sadly true that this Christ
mas will dawn on world still en-
gagged in a fierce strife that already,
they tell us, has taken the lives of
ten million civilians and an equal
number in the military services.
These figures and these facts must
make us thoughtful at Christmas.
How utterly do they contradict and
crush the Christmas message
Peace on earth to men of good will
Properly then on this Christmas
Day we may pray for an early ter
mination of this frightful carnage
and the elimination Of the seething
source Of hatred and violence. We
recognize that the prerequisite of
the fulfillment Of our prayers is
the winning of the war. We must
then, rededicate ourselves to our
purpose and lift up our hearts and
our burdens ana go forward with
confidence and peace of heart.
This Christmas there will be
young men flying the Always of the
heavens with the weapons of war.
There will be other men down in
the depths tracing the waters paths
In submarines. Indeed this Christ
mas will find the sons of American
mothers in battle array in all parts
of the world, some even near Beth
lehem's cave where the angelic
choir first sang their hymn of
peace: GLORY to God in the highest.
and on earth peace to men of good
will" Wherever they may be and
wherever they may go may our
prayers go with them in this sacred
hour.

CathOEe Thought And Opinion
By REV. JOSEPH F. DoNNELLY

Fernsworth regularly succeeds in
getting q job. Apparently he says
the things that some people want
to hear and whether they are true
or false seems to make little differ
ence.
We shall merely quote the two
following statements as they APP
peared in the ultra liberal New Re-
public. You may pass judgment.
The first is Fernsworth reporting
conditions in pre-war Luxembourg,
the little republic now under the
heavy heel of the Nazis.
There was a fierce, militant and
effective anti-clerical party which
had gone so fa1 as to debar priests
from access to the schools even for
the teaching of religion on the
ground that the priests misused
their privilege to engage in propa-
ganda and political activities"
THE TRUTH
This second is the statement Of
the Minister TO- Luxembourg in the
United States, M. Hughes LIE Gal
lais.
IF the author Of the article had
studied the question more closely,
he would have noted that during the
twenty-five years preceding the
German invasion, no. only was the
Catholic population in complete
harmony with the clergy but that
furthermore the relations existing
between the Luxembourg State and
the Catholic Church were Of the
best.
1.-The Luxembourg State paid the
salaries of the ministers of each
faith, Catholic, Protestant and Jew
ish. All school programs (elemen-
tary, high school and college, in
cluded religious instru :tion. The
ministers Of the various faiths came
to the schools to give the instruc-
ton.
DANGEROUS GROUND
hen the Minister from Luxem-
bourg Identifies the strategy of
Fernsworth.
IT hope you will permit me to
point out that Mr.. Fernsworth' S
dichotomy is the familiar strategem
used so successfully by Hi".er in so
many areas, but quite unsuccessful
ly against the Catholic Church in
Germany, i. e. the device >of divide
and conquer.
"All along Hitler posed as the
friend of the good Catholics the
spiritual Catholics 1t was only
their clergy that he opposed first
the immoral clergy, then the pol
itical clergy. And any Catholic
priest or bishop who on ethical
grounds, opposed the campaign of
the (German) doctors and social
workers to enforce human steriliza-
ton as cure for poverty, disease
and crime was a political clergy
man.
So was any priest or bishop who
expounded the traditional Catholic
doctrine of the dignity of the hu-
man soul, and who taught that, as
a consequence, the theory of the
totalitarian state was contrary to
Catholic teaching"
