 The Words of the Holy Father
 Like Q clean, strong wind tho words of the Holy Father swept across the world within the past week, Here was talk of honor and dignity and the saerednesS of tho family, here was talk Of the welfare Of all peoples, and the better life. And it was not double-talk. He pointed out where honor rests; upon what our dignity depends,
 "Thc result of . genuine mAr- Fiage union involves more than children when God grants them Co the married couple, and the ma. terlal and spiritual advantages that accrue tO mankind from family life, The whole civilized world, oil its branches, peoples, and relations between peoples, even thC Church ltself,--in . word, everything really good In manklnd-beneiits by the happy results when this family life ls orderly and h0uFlshing and when the young are accustomed Co look up to it, honor and love It as Q holy ideal"
 These words of the Holy Father make sense, There is down- n-to-eaFth talk here, There are certain things that must Dc kept intact, before we start dreaming about lasting peace and fairsplay for oil. And the first thing to Dc kept intact is the inc tegrity of the people.
 How much of a "hoiy ideal" is marriage being made in Afneriea2 Any chance BoApsopeFA ln the Afs ternoon will point out, against c background Of cheap organ music. tho wisdom of using Marble soap and Of Dawn's getting c divorce from her third.

THE NEW MORALITY


 Never in history, perhaps, have we heard such 0 flow Of high lan- guage and noble oratory, Never have we heard such q spilth of words eX- nltlng the common man. his dignity and honor. There are moro com- mlttees to defend this and that group, to prevent this and that Rbuse, to better this and that class than can be conveniently counted. or contributed to. Readers of his. tory Q century henee--.that iS, casual feaders--wlll look back on our age as Q period of great enlightenment and brothorly love, But We are brought up short by the fact that the Committee to Destroy anklnd, known familiarity aS the birth pres, Vonters' gang, may do itS work 50 efficiently that, in another century, there may be no readers of history, That would take care of that.
 But Che point to be made Is That with all this elegant moral olap-trap that k being handed out, there is actually no sane cf-
 Hort being made to help anybody. The D. A. R., those sbFlghtly champions of thc American way, are contributing far more than the ragamuiilns of B0stOns alleys Co the racial question.
 We are setting up on interna. NionAl court to nlete out justice, and Co impress upon the world that we stand for morality and the sacred. ness of the pledged word. And. yet the divorce records arc being shat. tered daily. And the jurlsts are taking over it, and adding to the confusion. Wo read the other day. Of . woman who got c divorce from her husband because he Fidlculed her hat, and said she eaekled like c chicken when she laughed. Tho solomon on the bench deemed this ample grounds for dlSsoiving the marriage.
 Ali the blacksrobod uStices will make . great to-do to clear up oV. cry angie in c suit to break c lease. They stress in solemn tones the klnding force of Q contract freely entered into, they point out, as they alone can point out, the grave social effects of releasing c man from Q contract to rent . house for five or ten years. If these con. tracts are not enforced the bench tells you, what will happen Co our social structure7 You must honor your given word in this matter, dc. spite the hardship that may enBue.' The living expression of justice will then withdraw to his chambers, to consider the next case in silence and eoclusion.
 The severe military court viii sentence Q soldier to death if no fails to abide by his oath to uphold the nation and its honor.
 And ail tho time, tho most sacred oath a person can take, tho most solemn contract two people can on. tor Into, s being made farce and iaughlng.stock by the very venor- able justices.
