WASHINGTON - The cam
paign being waged all over the
nation to halt the practice of
business-as-usual on Sundays
has had little effect, according
to one prelate who is in the
thick of the battle.
Archbishop William o. Brady
of st. Paul, Mimi, has observed
that despite the expressed con-

the modern dissertation of Sum

The Girl Who LOued the World

Pauline Jaricot was born in 1899, the last Of
seven children in a prosperous family Of Lyon in
southern France. From her parents she learned
to be concerned about those in poverty and mis-
fortune.
The frivolous social whirl of Lyon began to
appear useless to her just when she was its
queen in her seventeenth year. Her days were
quickly filled in caring for the sick and help
ing the unfortunate though her former friends
now ridiculed.
A group of new friends from among the
poor gathered round her and their concern for
the unfortunate made them think of people in
far places-in every part of the world. At the

likes the soft spoken, hypro-
critical approach by which one
is Unanswered or handled with
sweet reasonableness. This,
they say, is a lack of respect
and an insult to ones intelli-
gence. If someone offends you,
let them have it with all you've
got.
We heartily disagree for we
see no real good in quarreling
between husband and wife. If.
however, a couple is on the
verge of it constantly during
%c0urtship, then there may be a
use: it is a warning that the
courtship should be broken off
as soon as possible. But after
marriage, the wee good it may
do cannot be compared with
the harm committed.
Among innumerable other
disadvantages, quarreling
makes difficulties seem worse
than they really are. Your
wife, for instance, isn't really
such an awful driverl She did
rifle you once. She could find
a grease spot on your necktie
a hundred feet away, but once
while parking the car she
missed an open, eight foot ga
rage door. Another time you
saw her waste food in the kitch-
en-. Now you get extreme and
keep repeating again and again
that she is not fit to drive a
car, she is inefficient, nay, she
has the 10. of a dead search

necessary, but quarreling never.

suggestion of her brother they planned that each
would say an Our Father and Hail Mary each day
and give a penny a week to be distributed among
all missions by the Supreme Shepherd for the
propagation of the Faith.
She even organized the members in groups
with captains, and captains with an officer super
vising them. This jealous plan the Holy See
accepted as its W Society for the Propagation
of the Faith which sponsors Mission Sunday.
But the original earnest plan insisted on con-
tinuous prayer and sacrifice as necessary to con-
vert the world, and than plan still appears
workable. It is called membership in the Propa-.
CATION of the Faith.

A. He was king of Hungary

country from foreign invaders,
including the Russians. He is
noted as a wise and just ruler
and was canonized in 1893. His

A. The denarius mention

sidered to be about seventeen
cents In our money. The
groat, for. which the house
wife searched, and the Greek
drachma was the same in
value as the denarius. The
mite would be worth about
one fourth of q cent in our
money and the thirty pieces

thirty-two cents and the talent

stated THAT ths Legion Of De-
ceney pledge binds Catholics
to follow the recommendations
Of the Legion. Is that an &C.
evrats Interpretation Of the an
nvaI pledge which we oil take?
A. The tone of the article
and of many like 1t is objec-
tionable. Many modern" think
ers seem to feel that any NOR
al guidance or direction is die
tatorship. They must consider
God out Of order too when He
commands. In this case they
seemed to imply that Catholics
have "thought-control" in re-
gard to the movies they see,
and no doubt they would feel
that the moral laws on reading,
etc, are also authoritarian.
While Catholics must recognize
the Legion of Decency list as
the work of capable moral
guides acting for the Church in
the United States, not infalli-
bly, but with definite authorize
ton from ChriSt's Church, the
PLEDGE does not exactly bind
us to follow the list. It is pos
sible for a mature adult with
this warning from the Legion
to see a movie "disapproved
in part" if he has a proportions
ate reason without violating
the Pledge. We promise to do
all that we can to strengthen
public opinion against the pro-
duction of indecent and i'm
moral films, and "to unite with
all who protest against them"
We promise further ito form a
right conscience about pictures
that are dangerous to my NOR
al life. AS a member of the Lee
gion of Decency, ! pledge my
self to remain away from
them" We do not promise
blind obedience to the list as
such.

Robert Fontaine, the play

THE time is long past due
for the Government to discon-

Unfair squeeze" Charged
In his keynote address, Mr.
Haverstlck condemned the pres
ent money policy of the Federal
Reserve Board on the ground
that it "squeezes the home buyer
and builder unfairly. without
cutting down the use of credit by
big capital spenders.'
He said mfajor industries "are
gong right ahead with tremen-
dous expansion programs be-
cause the governments rapid tax
write-off program for industry
permits them to write off a big
part of the cost of their borrow
ings,"
Federal Reserve policy already
has resulted in two increases in
interest rates on FILA mort
cages. and one increase in VA
interest rates, builders pointed
out. A second VA interest-rate
increase is expected soon as a
result of the operation OF this
policy. they said.

In 1856, he said, industrial

billion. This was 81 per cent
more than in 1855, he explained.
adding that expansion spending
this year is expected to jump
ahead by an additional II per
cent.
He urged the following steps:

to overhaul tax. credit and mon
etary policies.
2. A nationwide campaign to
stimulate savings and encourage
more rapid mortgage payoffs

home owner.
