Aldermen Withhold
Approval On Funds
Proposed Transfer Of $4,000 for Expert Engineering
Services Tabled Pending Inquiries

BY almost unanimous consent last
night members Of the board Of al
dermen withheld final decision on a
proposed transfer Of an appropria-
ton Of $4,000 to be used for the
purpose of hiring Malcolm Pirnie,
New York city engineer that he
might draw up plans for the city's
sewage disposal plant for final SUBJ
mission to the state commission.
The board appointed a committee Of
three consisting Of Aldermen Kop-
cho CD, Minicucci CD and Benson
(R) which will consult with the en-
cheering department and report
back at the boards next regular
meeting.
The board last night received the
request from the board of works
who had q meeting held last week
approved the transfer from the sal
airy item of the engineering depary-
ment to the appropriation Of Eek
traordinary expenses. The works
board approved the $24, 900 appropri-
alton while 1000 is already contain.
ed in the latter budget item.
It is stated that in a caucus held
before the aldermanic meeting last
night 1t was decided by the latter
members that approval should be
withheld at the time. Some question
on the legality of issuing such a
contract as that which was being
offered to Mr.. PRIME without plac-
ing the matter on a competitive
basis was brought up during the
caucus.
Mr.. PRIME is world famed en-
gineer having worked on many of
the largest projects in America and
other countries. He drew up plans
for the city's Pitch Brook reservoir
and supervised the construction Of
the latter and the second pipe line.

the boards last meeting to check

was impossible to get up any more
pressure.
Sharp criticism had been leveled
at local authorities by some Of the
residents because Of their alleged
claims that they had been told once
the second pipe line had been con-
structed they would automatically
receive greater water pressure
throughout their section Of the city.
They state now that although the
line Is finished the pressure has re-
NAMED the same.

Catholic Thought And Opinion
By REV. JOSEPH F. DoNNELLY

Today many Catholics are
using miraculous medals Of Our
Lady and medals Of ST. Christopher
and unfortunately most Of them see
in the medals o charm that win
ward OF misfortune and protect the
wearer. This Is not Catholic teach
ing but form Of superstition.
The Catholic practice Of wearing
medals has as its primary end the
spiritual welfare Of the users. Med
ais of themselves can do nothing.
But wearing them In honor of the
saint to whom they are dedicated
while piouSly and humbling petit
tioning that saint to protect us here
on earth, gives the wearing Of the
medal a spiritual value In that 1t
reminds us to look to God and the
saint for help. Hence it is not from
the medal but from God at the in
tercession of the saint that we must
seek any help from the practice.
THE HONORARY CATHOLIC
Perhaps you have read in the
press the out-of-focus statements Of
so-called prominent Catholics" in
dividualS most often far more
prominent than Catholic. Well
there is another kindred species of
Catholic which Canon Jackman in
England calls the honorary Cath
ole" and describes thus:
THE Honorary Catholic Is one
who has the Ten Commandments
written on his face but not in his
heart; who sings hymns in church
and swears at home; suhscribes to
charities and underpays his work
ers; quotes the Encyclicals and
never pays his bills; reads the
Missal on Sundays and muck on
week days; is polite to strangers
and not to his wife; talks as If he
could run the world and his cour-
try but cannot run his own home"
SHALL WE PAY IN KIND?
The Sickening savagery Of the
Japanese treatment Of our soldiers
captured in the Philippines has
aroused an understandable rage in
the heart of America. For the first
time atrocities that have stained
great sections of Europe have init
mately touched American life.
But anger and rage always lead
to regretted results. Today we hear
influential people demanding that
we retaliate in kind. That would
mean that we would step down and
that we would adopt their princi-
Piles and conduct our war according
to their rules. Our people are not
prepared to lower themselves to
that.
MORE CHRISTIAN
AND MORE AMERICA
We prefer the restrained COM
ment Of the editor of The New
York Times: I'VE cannot and must
not think that they (the perpetra-
tors of the crimes against our SOL
diers) represent the entire Japanese
nation We know that the jap
anese race, transplanted to other
soil grows taller both mentally and
spiritually We cannot plan to
exterminate a nation without our
selves STOPPING to the level Of the
beast"
The japanese must be defeated
according to our code, not theirs.
And then essential to a peace with
justice must be the dealing out Of
justice to those responsible for
such atrocities.

1929 the Latern Rev. J. DOnnelly
Treaty with Italy brought to an end
the dispute that arose in 1870 with
the uniflcation of Italy and the
seizure of the Papal States. Be-
tween 1870 and 1929 no Pope left
the confines of the Vatican Palace;
each protested the injustice of the
seizure by a self-impoSed imprison-
ment.
Despite its size Vatican City en-
closes the largest church in the
world. st. Peters. It has a railroad
station, mint, post Office, etc. The
Vatican library has more manu-
scripts than any other in the world
and the Vatican museum more art
treasrerS.
The approaching danger to the
person of the Holy Father and
these treasures of art and htera-
ture which belong to mankind has
aroused world wide concern. The
Vatican has already been bombed
(by Italian anti-clericals according
to one press story: we should pray

God the war may bypass this hal

RAYMOND CLAPPER
AND MEDALS
We were saddened to read in the
Denver Register on the day that
the press carried notice Of his
death in plane crash over the
Marshall Islands the following
paragraph from the January 26th
column of Raymond Clapper:
almost every individual has
some religious charm or good luck
token. Many wear little image of
st. Christopher, the patron saint of
travellers I'm not a religious
man myself but find myself fire.
quently taking out little brown
bear my daughter gave me and
never get in a plane anymore
without checking in with my little
brown bear"
THE CATHOLIC ATTITUDE
Medals are not good luck tokens.
Worn as such they have about as
much efficacy as Mr.. Clapper'S little
brown bear, which is none. And
worn as such they are a form Of
superstition and an abuse and dis
tortion of the Church's sacrament
tails.

of Illinois
OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
SPRINGFIELD
Dwight H. Green
Governor

January II, 1914
Doctor Petras Dauzvardis,
Lithuanian Consul in Chicago,
go North LaSale Street,
Chicago, Illinois.
Dear Doctor Dauzvardis:
The cause of freedom has suffer-
ed an irreparable loss in the death
of Antanas Smetona, the first Pres
ident of the Lithuanian Republic.
Even in exile, he was an ardent
worker toward the cause of the
United Nations. He had done all
in his power towards building the
future, and he was steadfast and
persistent fighter for the sovereign
ty of small nations and democracy.
The million Americans of Lith-
uanian origin living in the United
States regarded him as the George
Washington of Lithuania'. 1t was
his hope that Lithuania once more
be free and independent and that
the Allied Nations be victorious.
He was grateful to America which
gave him refuge and he stimulated
al Lithuanians in America to re-
double their efforts in behalf of
this Nation.
The people of Illinois join with
free people throughout the world
in mourning the death of a great
man who devoted his entire life to
the freedom and welfare of the
Lithuanian Nation and the freedom
and welfare of all oppressed peo-
pies.
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) DWIGHT III. GREEN
Governor.
