GORMAN TO SPEAK ON
WORLDS FUTURE PEACE

There is a definite link between
the ending of the first World war

Nov. II.
The broadcast will be sponsored
by Billings post No. 1884, Veterans
of Foreign Wars, as the sixtieth in
a series of "Speak Up For Democ-
racy" programs that have been air
ed monthly since December 1910.
The address to be heard Nov. IL

when we speak of victory for de-
mocracy in the future" declares
Commander Braley of post No.
1884. "There is Nov. II, 1918,
when the German armies begged
that they be granted an armistice,
and May 7, 1915, when the German
aggressors lost another ruthless
campaign and the leaders cried for
mercy.
members of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars are staunch cham
pions of adequate preparedness, but
we also believe that the United
Nations charter points the way to
the day when large standing armies
will no longer be necessary and the
peace of the world will be preserv-
ed through international unity" ac-
cording to Commander Braley. eve

United Nations charter-and its
power to prevent World war III.
The organization of the United Ma

as possible-and given every chance

work which won the cictory in
World war II can be employed to
avert future world conflagations."

her son by transatlantic telephone.
The son, Tech. Sgt. Harry Stewart,

Glasgow, Scotland, and called his
mother. His voice WIS clear and dis
tinct and Mrs. Motzko could scarce
ly realize that he was so far away.
He has been in the service two
years, and not long ago he visited
his brother, Sgt. Warren Stewart,
in Paris. They visited the grave
of their oldest brother who wos kill
ed D day in Normandy, France.

Yale Realizes


 Yale University, center of learn ing, and, like so many centers, slow to learn, has suddenly made the profound discovery that morals without religion are impossible. And they have discovered that men without morals won't even make good engineers. In letter, signed by the Chairman of the Alumni Committee, it is pointed out that Hitler was one of the first modern men to grasp the profound signi- ficance of the decay of Christianity This, gentle reader, is a little over- drawn; but the idea is noteworthy. The letter goes on with 8 frank ness that is refreshing, and a child like confession of the failure of modern education: German guns are silenced" quotes the New York Times from the same letter, but the spiritual battle is not yet won. We repudiate Nazi-ism, but many of us are not all sure what we really do believe in. The urgent practical importance of facing the question is, nevertheless, beginning to be recognized"
 The Destroyers have the jump on us, to put it mildly. Many of us are not sure what we really believe in"! If this is proper estimate of what we have called Christian so-

Catholic Information
Did Bellarmine Whisper
 in Jefferson

Nearly two centuries apart the lived-Robert Bellarmine, 8 Cath olic theologian, and Thomas Jeffer. son, an American patriot. Yet theil pens linked out philosophies so sim. ilarly sound and God like, that WI wonder, we Catholics, whether al least a whisper from the great the ologian did not reach the ear oi the great statesman as he pondered and wrote his historic document. Read the extracts below from the Declaration of Independence, 1776 and from Cardinal Robert Bellar- mine, 1876:
 "All men are created equal; they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights" (Decla- ration).
 "All men are equal, not in wis dom or in grace, but in the essence and nature of mankind" Political right is from God and necessarily inherent in the nature of man (Bellarmine).
 ITO secure these rights govern ments are instituted among mem (Declaration),
 "It is impossible for men to live together without someone to care for the common good. Men must be governed by someone lest they be willing to perish" (Bellarnine)
 Governments are instituted e among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed" (Declaration).
 "It depends upon the consent of the multitude to constitute over itself king, consul or other magis- trate. This power, Is indeed from God but vested in particular ruler by the council and election of men" " (Bellarmine).
 whenever any form of govern ment becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of. the people to alter or abolish it and to insti- ute a new government. Pru- dence indeed will dictate that gov- ernments long established should not be changed for light and tram sient reasons" (Declaration).
 For legitimate reasons the peo- pie can change the government to an aristocracy or a democracy or vice versa" ''The people never transfers its. power to a king so completely but that it reserves to itself the right of receiving back this power" (Bellarmine).
 Government by consent of the governed" has been Catholic teach ing down through the ages. The 16th century doctrine of the "Di- vine Right of Kings" was, and is. as repellent to the Catholic as it is to the American; and when one is both Catholic and American, it is just twice as repellent. So here's to St. Robert Bellarmine and to Statesman Thomas Jefferson! May. their philosophies ever govern our land and may they coquer those poor lands where 'dictators still can do no wrong" and where no man dare say them "nay!"
 If it's anything Catholic, ask a Catholic! or write to: Catholic In- formation, 625 Baldwin street. Wa terbury.

 We wonder if the Navy took a poll before it launched on this heresy of changing the uniform We shall that question ourselves Of course it didn't. Had it done believe it would have received such laundering chorus of noes that much of the gold braid along Constitution Avenue would have been blown into the Potomac
 Discard the bell-bottomed trouser with the front flap that is held in place by thirteen buttons? Con- tribute to the old clothes drive the middy blouse, It's pressed collar and three white stripes? Donate to younger sister the satin kerchief that streams like banner in the wind the sailor shore leave takes his girl for ride in rowboat in Central Park? Did anyone ever write a song about straight hanging trousers and a coat of herringbone weave? What is to become of all the treasured broadcloth uniforms with thirtyinch waist measprements that lie in the bottoms of thousands of ancient attic trunks from Montauk Point to the Golden Gate?
 The exigencies of war brought back many of the od-t time customs, such flowing beards shoulder length harcuts and other hrsute adornments. Just it has victoriousy completed the most momentous three and half years of its history, is the Navy to discard the uniform and the boards in which it fought so gallantly?
 Let the admiralS have a care. They playing with dynamite. Anyway if we to have unified military force, wouldn't it be a better idea to wait until that is oonsummated and then design a new uniform for everyone? There would be reason in that But merely to outlaw the present distinctive uniform because few obvious andlubbers have writ ten to the newspapers saying the Tapping legs and thirteen button flap and mddy blouse ridiculous appears ncontnent surrender to public pressure
