Importance of Act.

A runaway hoN,ptA twleve ,IaS brought Into Q field ottaee of the Social Security Board one day by Q truant otiaeer,
 This Is Tommy Simmons" the man explained, II brought him in because thought maybe you could help him, I know of some kids at school whose fathers left social security insurance when they died. This boys father died ten years ago, and his mother just recently She'd been supporting him and l wondered whether she mightnt have left social security insurance"
 Reluctantly and in tears the boy told hiS story, His mother had died of pneumonia the week be. fore. After the funeral at his grandparents home, he had run away because he remembered hiS mothers wish not to burden the old people with any of her re- responsibilities,
 "What kind of a Job did your mother have" the manager Of the field once asked the lad,
 "She worked aS . cleaning woEn. an in on once building" the boy replied,
 A call to the manager os the building the boy mentioned proved his statement correct, Ills mother had worked there several years and had had social security con. trihutions or premiums" deducted from her pay, A check~up of her social security account showed that the boy was entitled to Sii,S7 N month In survivors insurance payments,
 "Tommy will got this money up to the time he is eighteen, pro- vlded he remains at school" Mir. MullArkey, manager of the local Social Security Board otnee ex- plained, He Is now with hiS grandparents, They would have been glad to have him In any case but the Sli,37 coming in monthly lightenS the burden of his support for them. Although tliis case was handled in another field office we have others like 1t, where working fathers and mothers have, often without realizing it, pro. vided for the care of their chil- dren,"

Catholic Thought And Opinion
By REV. JOSEPH 2. DoNNELLY

who said: "nlessed are the mercleul for they shall obtain mercy; who said: Thou shalt love thy neighhoE as thysolf" and Who said: "Lovg your enemies, do good to thom that hate you, and pray for them that pBfseoute and ealunlinate you"
 CHANGE or MIND
 T h commonwell, the liberal Catholic weekly, has been strain ing itself during the past threC years bending over to be fair in its attitude toward Russia, It based its attitude on tho sensible ground that if we are going to live in Q land, Russia and the United States must learn to understand each peaceful world after the war Eng- other, With this we agree, of course, though we have never been able to follow the Cofnrnonweal all the way in It's efforts to fit on apparently unwilling Russia Into this picture,
 This week the Comnionweal eX- presses itself editorially as dlSturb- cd over Russia, and for two req. sons. The first iS the tragic betray. al of the Polish patriots in Warsaw the second is the apparent decislon of Russia that she wants on armed and strong Germany after the war though England and the United States are decided to hold Germany down.
 If Russia elects to play such Q game, We shall Do forced out of self interest to play Q cor- responding game, and the catRs- trophe Of another world war will be that much more certain"
 HARDY APPROVAL
 Confirmation of the wisdom of our Catholic school system coming from -Catholics--a frequent ocs currence of late and c radical change from the intolerant attitude of the past--b always satisfying and encouraging to Catholics who sup. port their schools by bearing Q bur. den of double taxation,
 But today there are many such approvals, There Is, too, among the responsible leaders of thought in America, 0 firm determination that c remedy must Do found for the un. satisfactory system of education that ignores religion. A strong voice among those leaders is that of Edgar Hoover, the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Says MT. Hoover.
 "All the activities of civic ofgani. zatlons and oil the efforts of law enforcement will avail nothing SO long as the boy and girl, man and woman, has no impelling motive for living in accordance with tho law of God and the law of man. The answer lies in religious education. Religion teaches Q part of man where sociology b intellectual; it reaches his motives. his reasons for pursuing c way of life. In last analysis religion is recognition of mans dependence upon 6 superior being and his obligations to observe . higher law"

Smith, representing Eisenhower, and oe n eral CaStellAno, representinf Marshal Badogilo.
 With most of Italy in German hands, General Eisenhower decided to coincide the announcement of the armistice with the landing of hia Allied troops at Naples on Sept. 8
 The radio again was made an in- Strument of war and peace when US voice proclaimed the glad tid- ings to the Italian people waiting anxiouSly in their homes.
 This is Gen. Dwight D. Eisen- hover, commander in -chief of the Allied forces. The Italian govern mef1t has surrendered its armed forces internationally. AS Allied commander.in -ehief l have granted Q military armistice, the terms of which have been approved by the governments of the United Nations Thus am acting in the interests of the United Nations. ;"
 The message of Badoglio followed: {: The Italian government, recogniz. ing the impossibility of continuing the struggle against the oVerwheim- ing power of the enemy, with the object Of avoiding further and more grievous harm to the nation, re- quested an armlStic from General Eisenhower. This request has been granted, The Italian forces will, therefore, cease all acts of hostility against the Anglo American forces wherever they may be met. They will, however, oppose attacks from any other quarters
 P EPERCUSSIONS of the armis- N tice occurred swiftly. The Italian fleet dashed out to sea and surren- cred to the Allies. Italy declared war on Germany.
 Eisenhower had won another epoch-making victory. Through a masterly combination 10 military strategy and most skillful diplomacy he had forced Italy out of the Axis the partner Of Nazism was now it's enemy.
 Hitler. fin desperation, ccntrived a cunning coup to rescue his friend Mussolini, who was held by Badoglio under guard in prison. In a daring night raid the Italian guards were caught unaware. The eInaciated and half-mad Mussolini was dragged from imprisonment by Axis agents, carried to a waiting airplane, taken to Germany, and delivered to Hit Ter.
 Tn Italy the 7l-year-old Marshal Badoglio was made premier by the king. Upon his new assumption of power he said, The war continues. Italy. hard hit in her invaded pro- vinces and in her destroyed cities Loyalty keeps her given word (to the Allies) as the jealous custodians of her military traditions" The trembling, almost senile voice of the fallen Mussoliri was now heard over the radio appealing to the Italians to turn against the Allies under Eisenhower. Its bom- bast and bluster were gone; it faded way into almost incoherent mumbling-the end of a ruthless dictator.
 Hitler. staggering under the col- lapse of Italy and the overpower- ing might of the Russians. who were driving steadily on toward their invasion of Germany, was be- sieged on two sides. He must fight of the Russian juggernaut moving upon him from the east: he must fight Eisenhower's victorious forces moving upon him from the south.
 Eisenhower was poised for the next blow.

 With this in mind we recently read the following headline in The N Y. Times: "Every German must ne wiped out to keep Peace, Paris Clorgyman says in sermon"
 Neither the clergyman nor the church is Identified but excerpts rom the sermon are given,
 Thus spoke the clergyman identi- fled as Q Christian:
 There is one thing we must not forget right now: that iS, that this war is not ended. It is not enough to win Q victory. We saw that in 1918. What remains is to kill every German.
 "it often happens that when Q war has been won and victory has been assured, our minds soften. Let us pray God to have strength and courage to go on to the end. Every bullet must find It's Boche, every bomb must find It's target. There must be no distinction between sol- diers and civilians in the destruc- ton of men, women and children, For we speak of c damned race.
 ". The object is to finish for all time with those whom mindful ot certain passages in the Holy Bible, I may rightly call the damned Boehe, the damned SwiniSh Boche, So be It."
 BLESSED ARE THE MERCIFUL
 Was the N. Y. Times taken inp And If one who is reputed to be 6 clergyman did thus preach why did the generally respected N. Y. Times allow the printing of such a horror2 In printing t does the Times believe that it represents the thoughts Of many people?
 We certainty hope not, and we know that 1t cannot represent the thinking of one who profesSeS to follow the teachings of Christ Nor ean we bring ourselves to believe that c man who has spoken thus iS following in the footsteps Of Christ or preaching the doctrine Of Christ

ITALY sURRENDERs

 CHILL the Dadoglio government O held it's silence. On Aug. Allied planes bombed the docks at Naples and other points. On the eth Milan. Turin and Genoa were bombarded from the air and then as the Axis vas frantIcally eYacuat- ing troops by the Straits Of Mes- Sina, Rome was bombarded.
 Suddenly, the bombing raids quieted somewhat and 1t was about to happen. What was actually hap pening was revealed later. In two neutral countries Italian diplomats had approached British diplomats and informed them of the Italian desire to make peace; also Of Italy's complete inability to cope with the Germans still within her borders Of these moves the Germans were held completely fin the dark.
 General Eisenhower went to Lis bon during this period and attend cd . meeting presided over by Sir Ronald II. Campbell and the Am- erican charge d'affairs. The repre- sentatives of the Badoglio govern ment parleyed. They wanted con- ciliatory terms. There was but one answer from General Eisenhower and the Allied delegates. "Uncon- ditional surrenderI"
 The Italian representative, gen. eral, left to go back to Rome for consultation. Because of the secrecy of his mission 1t took several days to reach Eternal City. The Italian government sent back second gen- eral; and to prove their good faith. the one-armed British general, Car ton Dewiar, who had been an Ital- ian prisoner since early in the war, went with him.
 The second Italian general went on to Eisenhower's African head quarters while the first returned to Lisbon with the reply that the Italian government could not act as c free agent because of it's ties with Germany; therefore the arm istic could not be announced prior to Allied landings on the Italian mainland.
 The Allied representatives ignor- ed the protestations and demanded a definite yes or no within 24 hours. The answer came to Eisenhower's headquarters by a secret communi- cations route the next day, reveal ing that the Italians had accepted the Allied terms and that a repre- sentative would return to sign the armistice.
 IN the presence of General Eisen- \ hover and Gen. Sir Harold R. l.. c. Alexander, the armtice was signed on Sept. 3 by Gen. Bedell
