LADY BONHAM CARTER EVASIVE honour, believe him to have been capaple of conduct "unutterably vile." A "Telegraph" Interview. Our long article a fortnight ago caused a stir. More than one newspaper gave prominence to its findings. The "Daffy Telegraph," for example, reproduced part of it, under headlines nearly three inches deep. and acioed the following paragraphs: D AUGHTER'S REPLY. "My Father Could Not Make a Mistake." -I fully answered 'The Tablet' when they first alluded to the subject." Lady Violet Bonham Carter said to a representative of -The Daily Telegraph" last night. "I told them that my recollection of the story told by my
father is absolutely clear, and that recollection is corroborated by my brother and my husband. We heard the story told by my father over and over again. "He spoke most certainly of a Catholic priest, and as the condemned man was also a Catholic it was natural that he should make such a confession. I was a child at the time the incident happened, so that, of course,I have no other recollection than that of the story told by my father. "It is not conceivable that he should err in telling it, for not only did he possess a remarkable memory, but he was a man of extreme accuracy. In no sense did he tell the story to the discredit of the Catholic Church. He wanted only to emphasise this action of a priest who had the imagination to
ENGLAND'S ARK OF SAFETY INCREASING INTEREST IN THE CATHOLIC FAITH. ' I am quite definitely ot the opinion that we have reached, or are reaching, a state of equilibrium, a period of calm before the storm; but, after the storm, the people of England sickened and horrified by the excesses of the totalitarian State, reacting from the unrestricted interferences with the liberty of the subject and individual rights, from the storm and stress of human opinion and fallible theorising, will again seek safety where safety alone can be found—and that is within Peter's Barque. This was the considered answer of Rev. J Morgan, D.D.. L.S.S., of Oscott College, Birmingham, to the question, "Is Eneland Regaining the Faith?" which he dealt with in a lecture given under the auspices of the Liverpool Catholic Evidence Guild in the Picton Hall. Liverpool, recently. Contrasting the period in England characterised by the subjection of Catholics to persecution, and later, to obloquy and contempt, with the present times, Dr. Morgan stated that there was now throughout. the country at least a tolerant indifference, but indifference was on the decrease and tolerance was on the increase. What was more, there was a lively interest in the Catholic faith, thanks principally to the writings of Mr. Chesterton and Mr. Belloc. He, personally, had interviewed literally hundreds of earnest young men and women who were seeking the truth. and he was sure that his old colleagues of the Catholic Missionary Society had all experienced the same. But the greatest phenomenon of all was that fact that a large and really earnest section of our non-Catholic friends hacl so little prejudice against us that they were keen to be called by that once loathed and despicable name of "Catholic": that their clergymen were eager to be addressed by the title of "Father," which once was a sneer and a by-word, and that they gloried in calling themselves priests, which was once an indictable offence in England. and had cost forty-four students of his own college their lives. Our present status as Catholics, economical. social, political and intel7ec, -400 -04.141. -.041.
tual, was vastly superior to what it The faith of a was before the war. Catholic was no longer a real and insuperable barrier. But the most important. consideration of all was the fact that we were the only body in the country who could present a complete. comprehensive and consistent scheme of human existence, a reasonable explanation of the purpose of human life. But opposite our tremendous gains we had to balance serious losses. It could not be denied that there was a really serious leakage from the Church. There would always be some who fell by the wayside, but the leakage today was dreadfully abnormal. Thi.; leakage. Dr. Morgan attributed m ainly to one fact: the rapidly changing nature of the country from a nonCatholic one to a pagan one. Its atmosphere was one of sheer worldliness and selfishness, and Christian morality and tradition were in the discard. Hedonistic materialism was fast becoming the only religion of the country and the morality of the modern social orld was the morality of the hen-pen and the rabbit warren. Forecasting the future. Dr. Morgan said we were faced with the alterna. tives of Communism or Fascism. If the first, the Church would be proscribed, outlawedv forced into the catacombs as it was in Soviet Russia. The country was losing faith in the National Government. and he predicted that Labour, dominated by extremists, would possibly sweep the country, reenacting The scenes that occurred during the French Revolution. On the other hand. if Fascism obtained control of the country, its dictator might seek to curtail the Church's rights and liberties. We had to remember that in the totalitarian State, eVei-V interest had to be subordinated to the State. The State became a jealous god. who would have That no other gods before him. meant trouble for the Church, which recognised only one God and neither Stalin. Hitler. nor Mussolini as His prophet. The conversion of England was in evitable, because this Eeeland was Merrie England. Mary's England.
see how he could set at rest the mind of one who had performed his official duty. "It is idle to suggest that the Home Office would be able, at this late date, to say that the condemned man spoke What only to an Anglican chaplain. was there to prevent the condemned man confessing to a priest of his own faith? My father could not make a mistake on such a matter, and my recollection of his references to a Catholic priest is perfectly clear." That a moral man "could not make a mistake- and that "it is not conceivable he should err," is a rather large claim: but it confirms a recent remark in "The Tablet- that Infallibility is apparently to be found in all sort s of places, except on the Vatican Hill. We are dealing, however with a grave matter. knowing that scores ot thousands of readers see the "Tele. graph" who never handle the "Tablet," Lady Violet (herself a journalist) boldly said to the interviewer: "The condemned man was also a Ca. What was there to prevent tholic. the condemned man confessing to a priest of his own faith?" From this we gather, says the "Tablet." that the case detailed by us to Lade Violet is agreed to be the childHer ladyship murder in question. does not venture to say that we are on the wrong murder: and she does not — because she cannot—deny that the convict in that cas_e was attended on the scaffold by a good Church of England clergyman whose fall name we have What she does is to given to her. declare flatly that the murderer was a Catholic. Not that he may have been; "he was." Our searchers' reports, which lie open before us at this moment, do not contain one word about the murderer On the face of it, being a Catholic.

We call this insulton the scaffold. ing: because no minister of religion would thus have shirked his duty. Neither Catholic priest nor Wesleyan minister ,neither Baptist nor Presbyterian pastor, would have said. "This condemned man is of my religion: but I've done my bit by seeing him and listening to him, so now the Established Church can get on with it." She, not the "Tablet." has brought her vercitv forward; so we now tell Lady Violet that the veracity is chat lenged. Her latest addendum to the story makes it more incredible than ever; and she shall not evade her honourable obligations on the unveraciou3 e xcuse that we have calumniated the N-er y man whom we are defending. On what evidence does she affirm that the child-murderer was a Catholic? Unless we receive a proper reply we shall make a statement to a wider pnblic than our own

THE POLICY OF COMMUNISM WAR ON RELIGION
' onditions in Russia tu-day were surveyed by Rev. Arthur H. Ryan, D.D., D.-Ph., Professor of Scholastic Philosophy in Queen's Univgrsity, Belfast, when he letcured on "Man's Slavery under Communism," at the Olympia Theatre, Dublin. recently. "All talk of accepting Communism w ithout its atheism is futile," he said. "War upon religion is essential to the Communist programme. Nor is that merely a deduction from their principles. It is their avowed policy." He quoted Bukharin's text book, "The A.B.C. of Communism," in which religion is described as the opium of the people. and the author declares that "religion and Communism are incompatible, both theoretically and practically." When, therefore. Pope Pius XI. pointed out that no Catholic could be a Communist he was but re-echoing the official doctrine of Bukharin. Rev. Dr. Ryan went on to show how the Bolshevik" is enslaved by the State, dragooned and regimented from birth to death, from morning to night He was educated by the State, housed by the State in the six square metres allowed to him by law, herded to work by the State. amused by the State, forced to accept the economic and political and artistic and philosophic outlook of the State. When he was past his work he was useless and society needed him no longer. He was kept from starvation, but in all other respects he was a derelict. He had no home but his space allotment in a flat. He might have had children, but they could not be his cc:nfort. for the State had taken them from him and taught them to crush all bourgeois sentiments of filial affection Thus he approached death, looking back on a life of regimented drudgery. Death came to him for no Marxian orthocloxv could step it. but no viaticum sanctified it. and if he had learnt the s,ons of his school days. no hope of heaven took its bitterness away. "The tragedy of Russia." he continued. "lies in the fact that it is putsting some gone ends by completely wrong means. There is good in it, criticism of that untrammelled individualism which brought such miseries to the great industrial nations under capitolism. There is good in its protest against the exploitation of one class by another. There is a great deal of good in its basic concept that political and economic life should go hand in hand with a complete philosophy of life: that theory and practice should unite -From that point of view. Commun jam stands as a stern reminder to all Christians that we- have not yet done
our duty to society, and that while injustice in wages or in conditions ot work continues, while rack-renting tenements still survive, ove should be wiser to cast the beam out of our own eyes rather than survey the mote in Russia's." The truths of Marxism, however, were overshadowed by its errors. What was false and terrible in it was its negation of those spiritual values that alone rendered man human and made life intelligible. The great sin of Marxism was that it completely sacrificed the individual on the altar of the community. It was sometimes alleged that the Church was against the interests of the workers and in favour of the status quo, and it was asked why the Church did not suggest a better system. To this he replied that the Church's mission was not political and economic. but moral and spiritual, and consequently within the limits of her moral teaching every Catholic was free to support the economic theory he preferred. "Just as the Church is indifferent in the abstract to monarchism or republicanism so she is indifferent to any economic system provided that it does not violate the rights of justice." said Rev. Dr. Ryan. -She exists to bring to mankind not an economic polic'e'. but the Blood of Christ. and her real successes are recorded not in the wealth of nations but in the secrets of men's hearts." S T.

The Rev. William J. Gonna.. chaplain of the Chicago Fire Department, recently added another heroic deed to the list of actions that have helped to endear him to the fire fighters. Answering an alarm in near zero weather, Father Gorman learned that an aged man was on the second floor of the burning building. He dashed through the smoke, shattered glass in a locked door, and although his hands were severely cut, carried the man to safety. Father Gorman's record in answering alarms during a record cold spell added to the esteem in which the department hold him.
Dr. Frank P. Corrigan, head of the surgical department of St. Alexis' Hospital, Cleveland, U.S.A., who has received word of his appointment by President Roosevelt as Minister to El Sal vador, will leave for his post after the Senate of the United States has confirmed the appointment. Dr. Corrigan, who is fifty-two years old, is a student of Latin-American affairs, an accomplished linguist, and is widely known for his research with ultra-violet rays.
The recently published book on women medical missionaries, by Dr. Arlette Butavand, pays tribute to the achievements of the Society of Catholic Medical Missionaries, founded in 1925 at Washington by Dr. Anna Dengel. In her book. Dr. Butavand gives a de. ;ailed account of the work of women physicians in the service of Catholic and Protestant missions throughout in simple but striking the world. style. she reveals the special field of medical activity open to women alone 'n certain countries, and the diffictilties which they encounter because of the absolute lack of the most elementary conceptions of hygiene: Besides Dr. Dngel's Society. two other Catholic organinations are mentioned by Dr. Butavand: the Medical Missionary Tn. titute of Wuerzburg. where Brothers and Sisters receive medical training. and the Delparae Institu at Glasgow, where the Sisters follow the rule of St. Ignaitus. The Most Rev. Clement August Count Von Galen. D D. recently consecrated Bishop of Munster. Westphalia, was formerly pastor of St. Lambertis' Church.

The Holy Name Society has been formed in Samoa. For the present, it is to be confined to the European section of the Cathedral congregation of Apia. Disrespect for the Holy Name of Jesus is not characteristic as far as the native population at large is concerned Among the Europeans the Holy Name Society is needed. 4
Confirmation of the authenticity of what is recorded in the Bible may be found in the fact that the French explorer and novelist, M. Andre Malraux, who was awarded the Prix Goncourt last year for his novel, "La Condition Humaine." sent the following telegram from Jibuti to the Paris evening newspaper. "L'Intransigeant":—"We have discovered the legendary city of Saba (Sheba) on the northern boundary of the Rub' al Khali (the Great Sandy Desert of Southern Arabia). Twenty temple towers are still standing. We have taken photographs for `L'Intransigeant.'" M. Malraux set out secretly from Paris on February 22 by air. accompanied by Captair CorniglionMoliner as pilot. Their object was to find the ruins of the city from which Balkis, Queen of Sheba, travelled to Palestine to see King Solomon. The search involved a flight of about 1.000 miles over the desert. during which a forced landing would probably have been fatal. Tradition varies as to the site of the Biblical Sheba. According to one theory it was in Southern Arabia: according to another in Ethiopia The Most Rev. Joseph Kessler. Archbishop of Tvraspol on thz Dniester River. Russia---one of the martyrs of the Bolshevik persecution—has been laid to eternal rest, in the home town of his forbears. Ornbae, near Eichstaett, Bavaria.

Information from Havana. Cuba, stating that one of the first actions of Jefferson .Caffrey, new American Ambassador to that country, whose appointment was recently confirmed by the U.S. Senate, after arriving there was to visit the Jesuit College in Havana and select a spiritual adviser from among the pAsonnel of the institution'l faculty, was received in Washington with little surprise by persons in the Capital who know the envoy. For among Mr. Caffrey's outstanding characteristics, these friends say is his deep Catholic devotion. Word of the envoy's act at the outset of his tenure as Ambassador in Cuba has led persons in the capital to speak also of his great interest in the intellectual phases of Catholicism. Founded just ten years ago, the Order of Nuns, known as the "Little Helpers of the Clergy," have done won(lethal work in France. These are young nuns who dress simply, in black blouses and skirts, with white collars, and who are so unnoticeable that You can hardly believe they are nuns. They keep their hair, for instance, and wear black lace veils in choir. Their spei-ial work is to go. four or five of them together, into the parishes and help the priest in every way they can. In the ten years since its foundation, the Order has four houses, including the very flourishing house at Paray. They must fill so great a need that one wonders how soon there will he room made for them in other countries. George Andre, for seven years an associate editor of "The Tidings," official

Mary's Cathedral was crowded on Wednesday morning, when a Requiem Mass was celebrated at 9 a.m. for the repose of the Catholic soldiers who fell in the Great War.

Patriotism Not a Mere Sentiment. To us of this generation patriotism does not mean death, and blood, and war. Let us hope that the day is far distant when the terrible call to arms shall be heard in this fair land. Yet patriotism has its calls in tina !- s of peace, and to-day it_is fitting that we should recall to our minds the duties and responsibilities of citizenship. St. Thomas Aquinas teaches that after the debt he owes to God, his Creator, man is most indebted to his parents and his country, so that next to the service we render to God by the practice of the virtue of religion, comes the duty we owe to our parents and to ow country. From this we can see that patriotism is not a mere sentiment, the creation of a poet's fevered imagination. It is a duty imposed upon us by our nature as social beings. an extension of the virtues of justice and char. ity Our country holds within its borders everything we hold most dear: the home of our birth and childhood: the church where we were baptise and confirmed, where we made our first Confession and Cornunion: the altar before which, perhaps, we pronounced our marriage vows: the school in which we were trained and educated. It is the land which has given us our home and c t:r work, whence we draw the food and drink which is our sustenance. It is the home of our relations and friends. It is the sweet bond of a farnilv of brothers and sisters .that speak the same language, follow the same customs. that share with their whole heart in our joys and our hopes. In its bosom lie the mortal remains of those we loved, and there, too, shall we have our last refuge and resting place. It is the sublime symbol of a nucleus of traditions, some. joyful, some sorrowful, all most dear, that through the vicissitudes of history have distinguished our peoples and nations of the earth. s tamping upon their brow a special character that shall never be effaced. Such is our country and all it stands for should come next in our love and affections. . . . True eatriotism is based on the great laws of Charity, the love of God and our neighbour. And while States and Governments administer their affairs in acorclance with God's laws, then in God's name we are bound to loyal obedience. If, however, they abuse their authority, usurp the spiritual power, and place themselves in the place of God, as did the Pagan Emperors of Rome we must recall the words of Jesus Christ, the King of Kings, to whom is all power given in Heaven and on earth. "Render therefore unto Caesar the things that are Caesar' . and to God the things that are God's" It is fitting that these thoughts should occupy our minds to-day RS we call to mind the memory of the dead who made the supreme sacrit their lives in the cause of King an.! Country. We honour the Anzac-, and rightly so. May their memory never May their dauntless spirit be fade. ever with us to inspire us in our daily lives. May the courage and loyal service they gave their country be emulated by our young Australians. not in deeds of war, but in deeds of peace. May the young generation of Australians, the sons and 'daughters of the Anzacs. he worthy of their- forbears: may they eVer he loyal and devoted to their country. rnav they ever -be devoted and loyal to Let us this morning, as we pray for the dead, p-ey for the living too. Let us pray that God in His mgrcy would grant to our country and the nations that peace which the world cannot give: let us pray that God Almighty w ould inspire our rulers, that they may govern us according to His laws and direct us in the ways of peace: let us pray that our fellow countrymen who mre outside the true fold of Christ may rec,_sive the great gift of Faith. that there may he hut one fo/r1 !Ind me

She hopes at some future time to revisit Australia.
On April 5th.. two young Australian priests began the fulfilment of an enduring missionary desire, and hope to devote the remainder of their lives in this special service of God. They are Rev. Father Bernard Baldwin, M.S.C., son of Mr. and Mrs. Edmund Baldwin. of Albany, and Rev. Father Hubert Tomlinson, M.S.C., son of Mr. and Mrs. H. Tomlinson, of Sally's Flat. near Bathurst, N.S.W. They sailed by the Macdhui from Sydney on the 5th. inst. to the recently constituted mission of Eastern Papua ( Sideia. near Samarai), a charge of the A ustralian Sacred Heart Fathers, which Rev. Father F. Lyons. M.S.C.. has been promoting for the last two Years. Already he has added three churches to one in existence, has built a school, where 57 native children are in residence. a convent (conducted by the Sisters of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart), and a jetty 130 feet long, and has obtained two seaworthy boats and the gift of a cocoanut plantation, donated by a generous lady of the district. Mrs. Patching. The slender resources of the mission are economised by the growing of fruit and vegetables for the mission school. Rev. Brother Dixon, M.S.C., has been assisting Father Lyons for the last 12 months. Within a day's sail of Samarai there are roughly 117.000 natives, about twice the total number of Australian blacks These people are situated for the most part around the bays of the Papuan mainland and the seaboard of the numerous islands off its coast. It can easily be realised. therefore. that the conduct of such a mission depends essentially on sea travel. The Native and His Life. These natives, among whom cannialism was practically universal some 40 or 50 years ago, but is now under control, are comparatively short. supple men of a brown skin, with intelligent faces and mops of fuzzy hair. They settle in villages, each family haying a garden, where fruits and vegetables (yams. taros, bananas, sweet potatoes, pumpkins. cocoanuts. etc.). are grown. Pigs also are kept, and the men fish in the sea. The natives give themselves, in addition, to the making of sago (for their own use), pots, tapa cloth aad canoes, and the gathering o:' trepang (beche-de-mer) for sale to the traders. Dozens and dozens of villages are fairly close together .and have as many as 700 or 800 inhabitants each. The young men are attracted to the missions, being exceptionally keen to learn English. Australia's recent intensification of missionary zeal is a very consoling matter, inspiring examples being pros ided by our Sacred Heart Fathers. Brothers. and Nuns, and the self-sacrificing nurses who have gone to provide medical attention in Bishop Wade's territory of the North Solomons. A close study of their approaching field of labour has been made by Fathers Baldwin and Tomlinson from all avaliable resources, so. therefore. their first contact with this glamorous tropical mission will not be a bewildering experience. „Their realisation of the valuable medieal aid they may afford in the treatment of endemic diseases has induced both priests to (Timolete an extensive course in tropical medicine at the Tropical Institute of he University of Sydney. and to do an amount of practical work :n hospital

It is not surprising, therefore, that the membership list shows an ever-increasing number, and that names of girls almost forgotten range alongside thc more recent ex-pupils. The committee of the Association have been \ y busy on the work that of necessity falls on all founders, and blazers and badges, etc., have been well discussed.

The Catholics of Japan are like the early Christians of Rome, declared Archbishop Paul Marella, in his first address in Japan, delivered in the Tokyo Cathedral, December 20, the day after his arrival. Though not yet numerous, they yield to none in point ot high Christian qualities; their fidelity and attachment to the Chuurch, their obedience. their patriotism, and their family virtues have made them renowned throughout the world. His words were in reply to an address ot Archbishop Chambon, of Tokyo, who welcomed the new Delegate in the name of clergy and laity. His mission to Japan, Archbishop Marella said, was not that of ambassador of a foreign power, but rather as the messenger of love and peace from the Servant of Archbishop the Servants of God. Marella arrived at Yokohama on the h ive Marti on December 19, and was received at the boat by Archbishop Chambon. Admiral Yamemoto, Father Hurley, Secretary of the Delegation, and a representation of the mission force: throughout the Japanese Empire. Right Rev. Msgr.

S.J.. spoke on Cardinal Newman and the Oxford Movement. A sound film presented recently in or.e of Bombay's cinemas, showing the Holy Father visiting the Vatican Radio. e xcited lively applause from the Indian audience. When the Pope arrived at the broadcasting plant, the audience, which consisted mainly of non-Christians. cheered enthusiastically, and the people were so much impressed lw his venerable appearance and smiling countenance that the cheering began anew Another impressive scene which captivated the audience and brought forth much applause was that which showed Pis Holiness being carried in the Sedis Gestatoria to the portico of St. Ma; Major's. When he blessed the thronging multitude below, the audience ws thrilled to silence, feeling as if the blessing was descending upon them. Catholics of India have hailed with joy the exchange of telegrams between the Holy Father and the Maharajah of Mysore, India. following the Mahara. iah's presence at the laying of the corner-stone of St. Philomena's Church. Mysore. The Pope's message read: "Commemorative of this Holy Year and as a token of keen appreciation of Your Highness's benevolence towards your Catholic subjects. in presiding at the foundation stone laying of St. Philomena's Church, we send yo-1 a gold medal and invoke God's abut . dant blessings upon Your Highness, your family, and your subjects.- The Maharajah's reply was as follows: "I thank vont- Holiness for the telegram. which has afforded me deep gratifica• tion.
