The Shadow-World of Finance Youth Programme 03y Rey. Vincent McNabb, U.P.)
All great human crafts, whether good or bad, have their Sovereign Pontiffs, who from time to time are moved or betrayed into ex cathedra utterances. Sound Catholic psychology would justify us in often detecting in these pontifical utterances a certain natural infallibility such as the Maker of man's mind has given to man's mind. This_ attitude of Catholic psychology finds expression in one of the innumerable homely parables current in Catholic seats of wis(om: "Expert° credite Roberto' "Trust Bob at his job"). ( )tie of these pontifical infallibilities of first magnitude, tittermans- months ago, has been clamouring for my pen. It occurred where, more and more, the present bankruptcy of the world is leading some of us to expect. not indeed guidance, but a warning. It was at an ordinary general meeting of Barclays Bank. The Chairman, Mr. Frederick Craufurd Goodenough, when "moving the report." was on the level of his financial high priesthood in the solemnity and catholicity of his outlook. It was not just the Barclays multiple banks, nor even England and the Empire he contemplated; but the world. Well might his outlook be world-wide. If some truth is in the inspired proverb. "All things obey money.' the Sovereign Pontiff himself has hardly a more effective world-influence than has the Chairman of a great modern banking company. even in these years of financial landslide. Inspired by the circumstance of place and time, the Chairman of Barclays Bank uttered this ex cathedra pronouncement urbi et orbe : "It must he remembered "Mere is no automatic relationship between the value of gold and the value of commodities."

Lerroux, Rios, Azana, Largo Caballero, and Miguel Maura, threatened King Alfonso XIII. to flood Spain in an ocean of blood and ruins, in the event of his attempting resistance to the declaration of the popular will, expressed in the municipal elections, on Sunday, April 12. Although the election results show that 65 per cent. were monarchist throughout the country, the Spanish monarch, after due consultation with his Council of State, handed over the reins of Government into the hands of the usurpers. and exiled himself in a foreign country. The King's decision thus made possible the ,-..hange of the regime. His Majesty had no need to abdicate, as he told the revolutionary leaders; "because, although the revolutionary parties had won the electoral victories in sonic of the cities, they did not represent the majority vote in the whole country. However, to avoid the danger of civil war, he left Spain to wait to learn the real expression 4 public opinion." (King's Manifesto.) From the very commencement the attitude of the majority of Spaniards to the Republic was affected by two opposing tendencies. The great majority of the people. fearing that the new regime would be sectarian and a Catholic of the persecutor Church. proclaimed their firm adThey hesion to the Monarchy. had not to wait many days before these fears were realised. On May 10, the Provisional Government of the Republic allowed the Red mob to run riot in a mad career of murder and destruction. Convents, churches, and monasteries were burnt to the ground with the connivance and criminal complicity of the Government. The Civil Guards (the best police force in the world), were forbidden to intervene by the new masters. one of them declaring that "all the monasteries in Spain are not worth the life of one good The soldiers were r epublican." confined to stay in their military barraeks; by some undisclosed mistoke the fire brigades arrived t o es-tinosiisli the fires of the blazinp- religious buildin, . .but

IL,. rout of the Right partie, was complete. True, the June election was conducted in an atmoir phere of terrorism and intimidation, with every advantage on the side of the Provisional Republican Government and majority parties. On July 12, 1931, all the candidates, both the defeated and successful ones, of "Popular Action" were entertained to a banquet in Madrid. During the banquet Senor Herrera delivered a very important speech, of which the following are the principal points: "1. The party of the Right must use only legal means to defend its doctrines and never violence. 2, It must not encourage guerrilla warfare, but educate the people. 3, As in religion, so also in politics. victory comes to him Who convinces the enemy and raises him to a higher and more glorious life. Consequently the Right must aspire to the spiritual conquest of its enemies, giving them life rather than death, love instead of hate. That is the objective of "Popular Action." No doubt, Herrera continues, "Popular Action" vill one day he a political party with its executive and board of directors. At present (July. 1931), this is not possible. because a political party must spring from the roots of society. .Agrarians, workers, intellectuals and the middle class must he the nucleus of what T v isualise "Popular Action" to be one day in the Spanish Cortes. In the next General Election ( November, 1933) "Popular Action" will return from 100 to 150 deputies (actually it returned 215). Men and organisations are needed.

THE RETURN OF THE FAITH Aritiv of Converts Waits tlaie Cali to
E
VERY now and then during recent years there has been a certain amount of excitement in the Protestant press of England over the reception of various writer's into At these the Catholic Church. special moments the Church is proved once more to be a refuge for intellectuals, a fad for the few : but at all other time the Church is a mass of :nit worn superstition, which has no appeal nowadays save for illiterate peasants. It is always heads they - win, tails we lose. One of the most interesting problems in connection Nvith the return to the Faith is t.. is - how long will it be before this gradual return makes an imprint on How long our national life? will it be before apologetics, and the example and manner of life of the thousands of converts, begin to have a visible effect on the country as a whole? How long will it be before the Catholic philosophy is vigorous enough in England to arrest the present decline into a weak parody of paganism? The Church an Active Force. There is not the slightest doubt that more and more people in England are becoming aware of the Church as an active force in the modern world, and are surprised and interested to find it still in existence among them. A less bigoted attitude in certain Protestant papers, the growth of a Catholic press. the organisation of lectures and speeches all make it ca ier than it used to be for the inquirer with an open mind to discover exactly what the Church is. Being by nature kindly, the average Englishman finds that Catholic the of his hatred Church has been a hatred of something that was not there. He hated his own ideas of what the Church is, or some idea that was handed down to him. With fuller knowledge his antagonism disappears, and he understands that phrase which is, for so many bewildered people, like a light at the end of a tunnel: "Of . course, if I had any religion. I should he a Catholic." I myself would date the universality of that now familiar phrase from the Eucharistic Congress in Dublin in 1932. There you had, very near home. the s tartling spectacle of the Church Militant touching the extremes of glory and splendour ,and of The lowliness and simplicity. popular press. for once in its life, c ompelled to recognise important news, described the daily ceremonies, and, in most cases, ignored angry letters about the Scarlet Woman and the wholesale bribery of the press by the Vatican.

The Congress touched the imagination of those who had not realised that such 'things w ent on in the world in . 1932, and many a visitor returned to England having seen the truth in a vision, and destined to remember for ever an evening when there were candles in every window. and Ireland lay under the dark sky like a great altar at w hich all the world had come to k neel.

When you have o sore or relaxed throat make a gargle with ' ASPRO.' Prepare the gargle by crushing and dissolving three ' ASPRO' tablets in half a glass of water. Stir well before using. Repeat the gargle every 2 or 3 hours as required, but make it fresh each time. Do not let the mixture stand over night. ' ASPRO' acts as a soother and an effective antiseptic for sore throats because of its germicidal qualities. There is no need to worry if you swallow some of the mixture—it won't do y ou any harm.

If we ask with faith we shall obtain whatever we ask. according to His will. when we ask for what is good. Our faith must not be a hare, speculative or dead faith, but one prompted by charity. In the Gospel we have Christ appealing to the probative force of His miracles and condemning the Jews because they were blind to His miracles. Clearly does Christ claim equality with His Father: "T and the Father are one." So clearly did the Jews understand Our Lord's claim that they took up stones to kill Him because he made Himself God.

The Question Box A jax (Hay-street): "How can a person love God whom one cannot sensibly perceive in any way? It is difficult, if not impossible, to nourish any deep feetings for the abstract." Reply: In the first place God is not abstract. He is Reality Itself. And secondly, love of God does not necessarily or primarily concern the question of feeling, or sensible affection at all. The Cathb.lic Church has always protested against religion of pure subjective feeling, which, under stress of nervous excitement, makes the emotions take the place of a rational supernatural faith and charity. The essentials of the love of God spring from faith and from reason which show God as the surpassing Object of love and homage. It is by the acts of the will and not of the emot'ons that this love is proved. "If you love Me. keep My commandments..' "Non-Catholic" "How can a priest

What Easter Stands For The Fast 9f Easter is tic centre of the greater part of the liturgical year. The order of the Sundays from Septuagesima to the last Staiday after Pentecost, and most of the important moveable feasts depend upon the Easter date. In its commemoration of the Resurrection of Christ, it is the cornerstone upon which Faith is built. "For if Christ be not risen again, then is our religion vain and your faith is also vain." In addition, it is the oldest feast ot he Christian Church and the connecting link between the Old and New Testaments. This connection is both real and ideal: real, since Christ died on the first Jewish Easter Day, and ideal in Elicit it correlates type and reality, since Christ's Death and R esurrecti, n had their figures and types in the Old Law, especially in the paschal lamb. Hence it is not surprising to find that the Church incorporated the Jewish feast in the liturgy of the Christian Easter celebration. In this way the entire history of mankind in its spiritual significance is covered by the Feast of the Resurrection. Among the many-sided aspects of the Paschal Feast, none is more impoitant than the practical and personal one that applies to the individual. From this angle the Resurrection typifies a personal pititual rest.rrection, a rising from the bondage of sin to a life of grace. The period of Lent really represents a huge corporate retreat, in which the Universal Church participates, culminating ( n Easter Sunday. Very appropriately has the Church placed thc minimum obligation of approaching the Sacraments within the Paschal season. Easter should mean for many the favourabls annual opportunity of beginning the spiritual life afresh. Even to ties most lax and lukewarm of the Church's children, there is something very special about Easter. It is the feast of incredible hope. Precisely because Our Lord conquered death and despair, is there hope of spiritual regeneration even for the most abandonr(:. through the merits of that victory consummated on Calvar.- and forever confirmed on the Easter morn. ( *.rises- tely. Easter is the season of joy throughout the whole C hurcl,, which is "exceeding glad" in the triumph of Her. Lord. Primarily this spirit centres around the personal vindication of Christ Gver His enemies. But it is a spirit very different from t hat of Li e shallow, emphemeral joy of the hedonist. For it springs not from the gratification of the senses or any selfish pleasure. It is Christocentric. having its source in Him Who is the Awhot of every good and perfect gift. Moreover, it is eternal as God Himself. Amazingly enough. it can and does co-exist with the trials and difficulties of every-day life. And this is as Christ meant it to be. He .conceived His Church as a religion of joy— an aspect of Catholicism which is not sufficiently tmphasised, and one which in an age of alternating philosophic despair and artificially holstered pleasure. cannot be too constantly reiterated. And, indeed, on purely rational grounds, the world will have little hope and less real happiness until it realises that Christ is indeed risen and established on the right hand of His Father, as King of men and nations. • • A final striking consideration of the Resurrection of Jesus is that it supplies the only really adequate explanation of what • has been called "the problem of evil." Why the good suffer and the evil flourish, has long been a stumbling-block to the moralist, seeming. in some ways derogatory alike to the Wisdom and Goodness of God. No doubt the explanations of the philosophers are sound enough, but few have talent or time enough to digest them. But Christ, in His rising from the dead. stands for the hltimate triumph of good over evil and truth over falsehood. And this final victory. moreover, is given eternal fixity. So that temporal miseries, great as they can be. are vet not xvorthy. as St. Paul observed, to be compared with the glory to come. And lastly, in the Resurrection of Our Lord is the promise and the pledge of our own resurrection. wherel7v we shall share in that ultimate Victory of the Kingship of Christ in the measure in which we have triven for the attainment of tha Kingdom on earth.
ZAMORA R SIGNS On April 14th.. 1931. the leaders of the Spanish RepublicanSocialist alliance. namely, Alcala Zamora, Prieto, Lerroux, Rios, A zana, I.argo Caballero, and Miguel Maura threatened King Alfonso XIII. to flood Spain in an ocean of blood and ruins, in the e vent of his attempting resistance to the declaration of the popular will, expressed in the municipal elections, on Sunday. April 12. Althoagh the election results show that 65 per cent. were monarchist throughout the country, the Spanisb monarch, after due consultation with his Council of State, handed over the reins of Government into the hands of the usurpers, and exiled himself in a foreign country. The King's decision thus made possible the change of the regime. •
*
Elections were held according to plan, and naturally the Sosialist-Republican candidates were elected. In a House of 473 inem!)ers, all save 73 were Republican. No wonder. The new ,e1F elected Constituent Assembly. with Zamora. a President,

drafted a new Constitution, anti-Spanish as well as anti-Catholic, The new Constitution became the law as everybody expected. of Spain in November, and a few weeks after Senor Alcala Zamora was elected by the same Assembly the first President of the second Spanish Republic, with Senor Azana as Prime Minister. • Now Zamora has been virtually dismissed by a parliamentary vote of censure, and thereby suffered the fate of most makers of revolutions who have been overwhelmed by the successive waves of revolution rising behind them. The departing President, by the irony of fate, has been dismissed for taking the step which put into r.ower those who have expelled him from office. Senor Zamora was a moderate Liberal. a Catholic, but an anti-clericalist. who became the first Premier of the Revolution, but resigned because he objected to the confiscation of church property. As President he has endeavoured to assuage the furies of Spanish party politic,. and came to dread the ascendancy of either Right or Left. The new crisis shows one thing at least, that Spain is not yet settled as to its future Republican policy, and that Alphonso may vet be recalled from his self-imposed exile.

We are in the happy position of being able at length to offer our readers as an Easter gift the new "Record," with an attractive magazine cover in a coloured design. This marks a further step forwai d in the progressive policy we have set before ouselves— to make our local Catholic weekly one that the Catholics of the West may be proud of and may look forward to each week. It is the fond ambition of the management to so raise its literary and technical standards that before long "The Record" may vie with airy Cath Ai: publication in the Commonwealth. 1hose improvements which have already been instituted, and those which we hope shortly to effect, are, of necessity, slow and costly. What has been done to date has been made possible by the ever-increasing measure of interest and support accorded the paper by the priests and people. What may be done in the future is almost entirely dependent on their continued support and on the enlistment of yet more Catholics as regular subscribers and supporters. • * • We are glad to report that tbe circulation over the past six months has increased in a very gratifying manner, and we take this opportunity of extending our cordial thanks to the priests for bringing "The Record" to the notice of their congregations by the reading of the pulpit notice. We have experienced that this m ethod has conduced, more than anything else, to the expansion of our sales. To the members of the St. Vincent de Paul Society and other voluntary agents we are also deeply indebted for their unfailing enthusiasm and enterprise. * • It is anticipated that we vil1 shortly. be able to place the circulation of the paper on a competitive basis. To this end we hope to publish at regular intervals a tabulation of percentage s showing the proportions of "Records" sold to the number lies 11 each parish. and indicating the percentageof Catholic famiincrease or decrease in the various centres. This should prove a great stimulation ts those who are already bearing a fair share tion and to those who are failing it should prove of the distribua sting to parochial pride. Renewing our thanks to all, we wish our readers joy and grace in the great Feast of the Eastertide.

Sir. -In your columns we see from time to time notes of the doings of the C.Y.M.S. To those of your readers who may have belonged to the C.Y,M.S.-no matter whether it was the "Perth," "Fremantle," "Subiaco.'• "Victoria Park," or "Goldfields"these notes call up happy memories of an associateship which did much help each to hold fact to the priceless pearl-their Faith-no matter what particular temptations their varioti, callings may have brought them, The clergy and various professions and trades are filled with men of out standing ability whom there is little doubt would accord some measure of this success to their connection with the C.Y.M.S. The writer would like to have an expression of opinion of past members through your columns on the advisability of having a reunion of some kind. say a week's retreat and a banquet. or some such social function. There are missionary priests past members of the C.Y.M.S. who hold offi. cial positions on the committee, and without making invidious distinction, the Rev. Dr. Rumble and the Rev. Father McGrade, Missionaries of the Sacred Heart, might be mentioned. It would perchance be even possible, and certainly very desirable, could the necessary arrangements be made to have a retreat as suggested, conductd by a priest or priests who had been members of the society, There is little fear of such an undertaking being other than entirel- successful from the point of view of the individual, and with the sympathetic interest of your paper and the clergy throughout the State. a toning up of the who:e of our Catholic manhood would result -Yours. etc.. •••1111111

MN" CORNERITES,—. It is good to greet the Easter feast once again, and I wish each and all of you a very holy and happy celebration of this most joyous and -heavenly time, for if Christmas is principally the least of childhood- 1 think Easter belongs in a special manner to those of us whose maturer minds can value all the consolations and spiritual hopes that are contained therein, and which of us, in our grown years, does not need the hope of the life to come to and strengthen us on our journey through this vale of tears, and to help us to realise that through the Glorious Mystery of Our Divine Lord's Resurrection, Death has been swallowed up in Victory? W hat a precious gift the gift of our Faith is, and how well worth guarding in this materialistic age when so man:: are intent on living for the fleeting and perishable good of this world, and with no thought or belief Therefore 1 in the world to come. hope that the Faith which is your proudest possession and mine, may he renewed in our souls during this Paschal Season, and that in following Him in our appointed paths, we, too. may one day find our bodies reunited to our souls, and be found worthy to keep heaven's eternal Easter with Him who is the Resurrection and the Life.

Our congratulations to Rodney for even practicing to be a hero. AUNT BESSY St. Laurence, South Perth. Dear Aunt Bessy,—When the time comes for us to writgagain there is always an argument as to who who is to write to you. When you are the eldest you usually win, but as Frank is the only boy amongst all us girls. mum gives in to him and lets him write too. Enclosed is £2 with the names of the generous ones from whom it was coefected. 1 haven't seen Sandy yet, but Frank has, and he raves about him and his bagpipesso if he is as nice as his photo. he'll du me, as he would just match my big doll. I went to Dr. McMahon's welcome home, and we are all pleased to have him home again, because we will have our new church now very soon. Next to the Cathedral we will have the best church in West Australia, because it is to be built on a hill right opposite the Cathedral and o verlooking the river. I will close now. Hoping you will get out of the Jews' hands by Easter Monday, Love from, MARY MUiRPHY, Dear Mary,—Many thanks for the big Easter egg that was in your letter, and it was the kind I like best for our 13ushies, too, even though it wasn't made of chocolate. I am acknowledging my thanks to all your kind helpers in another part of the Page. Sandy is terribly keen on staying in the \Vest, so that he can be a collector in Or.

Dear Aunt Bessy--Here is the card that Sister gave me to get some pennies for Sandy. We are so glad he is safe, and hope he will never again be caught by the mermaids. Next time we go to town I am going to have a good look at him in the window. He looks so nice in "The Record," but I would just love to win him for myself. We are working tor our exams but Violet iS sick to-day so she is home. Patsy is in the fifth class. Our new priests came to see us and we had a concert for them. Father Crowley went away for a holiday. Good-bye. With love from us both. THE CHAUNCEY TWINS, by ONE OF US. Dear Twins.- -The Wet Blanket has been changed into a mermaid for six weeks, because she fell into the goldfishes' howl, and Tiddles and I are terribly worried about her in case she will swim down to Rottnest and join those horrid ones who captured Sandy. She's as funny as anything. too, and keeps making up riddles, and when she heard that there was a letter from von two she said she bet we couldn't guess which twin wrote it, and when I guessed it was you who wrote- it "Margaret," she got real perky and said "Anyone could know that Margaret had to write it when Violet was home sick. I'm very grateful to the both of you anyway for filling in that card, and I hope Sandy will recognise you when you call to see him. AUNT BESSY. St. Joseph's Convent. Maniimup.

The Sanhedrim Under the Romans. We have been describing how the Chosen People in the sixty years prior to the birth of Jesus had fallen under the yoke of the Roman Empire.

Smith opened the recital with two fascinating numbers from Mozart's "Mar. riage of Figaro"—"Porgi Amor'. and -Non so piu." These were later fol. lowed by three German songs— Schubert's 'Die Forelle" and two warmly received compositions by Wolf. In response to a vigorous encore, —The Dreary Steppe," by Gretch aninov, was artistically rendered. In the words'of the critic, this promising artist "rose to the occasion worthily, in her choice of tine and unhackneyed vocal music, and she presented it with skill and sincerity. making an excellent artistic effect."
