Saturday, April 18, 1936. A young couple came to me recently to make arrangements for their approaching marriage. Both were Catholics, thank God. Inter alia I asked them when they propose(l to have the wedding. "On Saturday evening, Father," %vas the reply. I suggested that they should have a Nuptial Mass. A fter some hesitation I received the reply: "We would love it, Father, but to tell you the truth, we can't afford it." Needless to say, that "difficulty" was soon disposed of; but the question remained: why should any Catholic be deprived of the proper nuptial solemnity and blessing because of the fear of its "costing too much?" Is there any substance in that fear? Let us hope not.

Irri&ge

, By Rey. Dr. E. Doody, St. Stephen's Cathedral, Brisbane.) (The following interesting article on the proper way of solemnising- marriage is timely and appropriate, in view of the growing number of Nuptial Masses in the Archdiocese. Unfortunately Catholics do not sufficiently realise the importance which the Church sets on the Nuptial Mass and blessing. Fewer still seem to understand that it is the only proper way of celebrating Catholic marriage. His .Grace the Archbishop, as is Nvell known. w not officiate at a marriage that is not celebrated with Nuptial Mass, and this because it is only in keeping with the teaching of the Church and the dignity of this holy Sacrament. It also serves to decrease the number of mixed marriages, by bringing before the people the contrast between a really Catholic marriage and a mixed one. In a Catholic community like ours there should be very little excuse for contracting marriage with nonCatholics. The attitude of the Church is moreover definitely opposed to it —Ed.) destroy the value of Catholic clubs, but makes desirable some further safeguard.

The fact that the Nuptial desire the Nuptial Mass at their M ass IllaV be celebrated for the weddings as earnestly as the Parties even after they have lived Church desires it for them, and a considerable time in the marthey will not want to contract a ried state shows the anxiety of mixed marriage. And to this the Church for it. This ( hliga-

tion ought not to be looked upon lightly. If we are careful to see unit the faithful are admitted to sodalities and enrolled in the scapulars and receive the sacramentals, is it not of at least equal importance that those entering •the responsible state of matrimony should receive the special blessing prescribed for them by the Church? If our young people are brought to an appreciation of this .obligation and the earnest wish of the Church. may we not hope that they will at length come to 'look upon mixed tharriages. for which the nuptial blessing is forbidden, as something unworthy of a good Catholic? Would they not have also an incentive to effect the conversion of the non-Catholic party before the marriage ceremony. if they have 'Chosen a partner from outside the fold? '..\-hy then should not the \upbe made as easy as possible and encouraged zealously? The parties to the marriaire will have to make sacrifices sometimes and on occasions the pastor will also be called upon to make some effort in order to arrange the Nuptial Mass. But in view o f tlw earnest wish of the Church and the check it is to the increase in the number of mixed marriages it not worth while? t - ia!

DAWSON--O'NEIL WEDDING

The solemn celebration of Marriage is too rare. Nearly half of our marriages are "mixed." Of the remainder I venture to say not one-fifth are celebrated with he Nuptial Mass, that is, not ten )c.r cent, of the total number. Is this according to the mind of the Church? In the January 0936) number o f "Emmaus," Father Eustace Boylan. SJ., offers some salutary suggestions for the establishment of Catholic Matrimonial Bureaux. The idea is not only feasible but commendable and Avorthv of trial, Prudently handled guch bureaux should help to decrease the num her of mixed marriages. Even one such bureau in the State could do an amount of 'goo(l towards that end. It is for this urpose that Father Boylan advocates the establishment of the bureaux and all priests will be interested in any practical means whereby the number of mixed marriages may be decreased. Nothing is so eating into the very vitals of the Faith in the Catholic home as this cancerous evil of mixed religion. Is it not worth while trying every reasonable means to combat it?

St. Brigid's, West Perth EASTER SUNDAY, 1936.

0 Sacrum Convivium. Softly, through the thick pall of grey clouds broke the Resurrection Morn, and, oh joy to tell! 'twas not as on the First Easter Day, when oeily the light footfall of the Holy \Volum broke the silence of the darkened streets: in haste to visit their beloved Lord. All roads on Sunday last led to St. Brigid's Church. While yet night's darkness lay but half-uplifted from the city, the sound of many feet were heard in the other. wise noiseless streets, It was a First Communion Day, and that was why so many eager pedestrians made their way to the spot where their loved Eucharistic Lord lay entombed behind n thedecostly veils of His earthly taber.

Quickly. passed the time of preparas tion. when fond mothers and teachers adorned with apparel, fitting the sublime occasion, the tiny ones—the priviliged intimates of the King of Kings. Spotless robes and veils and garlands of white blossoms bespoke the purity and innocence of the children. sixty in number. They moved in reverent processioa into the church and took up their places in the front seats, reserved for the occasion. The spacious building was well filled, not only by those whom the obligation to hear Liolv Mass had drawn thither. but also by the loving parents and relations of the white-robed little ones who had come to witness a scene that, to the devout Catholic, is "ever ancient and always new." A s the supreme moment approach. ed, a deep hush fell over the whole assembly. Unbidden tears dimmed the eyes of fond fathers and mothers, for it is on such occasions that " Remembrance wakes with all its la '.' train Swells at the heart and turns the past to pain." The dear child, but a few year, ago, pressed to the heart of beloved parent, was about to receive the first Kiss of Jesus. Deeper and deeper grew the hush, broken by nought but the voice of the priest. 'Corpus Domini Nostri Jesu Christi Custodiat Animam tuam." With joined hands and downcast gaze, back from the altar rails came the living tabernacles of the Hirldea God, their faces radiant with re. fleeted grace, and shining with a beauty seen no where else on earth— the beauty that smiles on the lips of :in innocent child.

°committee Elections on April 28. It has been decided to hold the general election of office-bearers and committeemen on Tuesday, April 28. Nominations will be received at this week's meeting and until 8 o'clock on the night of the elections. There is hardly any need to stress the importance of this election. It is of paramount importance to every member. Every society, club, or other organi sation, if it desires to progress, must have a keen and conscieutious committee, There is plenty of work ahead of us during the corning months, and we ask you to come along, give this matter serious consideration, and see that the right type of chaps are elected to the various positions. Football Practice Tuesdays and Thursdays! Football practice is now in full swing at Wellington Square every Tuesday and Thursday at 5 p.m. The opening matches of the season will commence in a few weeks, so it behoves all players to get down to serious training at once. We might mention in passing that we have a keen and enthusiastic lot of players and all we now desire is a coach. Should there be anyone among our friends and supporters who would volunteer his services in this capacity, we assure him that such would be greatly appreciated by the boys. Another matter of importance which some members are neglecting is the weekly meeting of the, society e very Tuesday. Several prominent members have been conspicuous by their absence lately, and it is to be hoped they make amends as from this week. Tennis. To-day the opening oi the pennant matches for this season takes place All our teams are in first-class font and we are hoping to have a glowing report of victories on all fronts to report at Tuesday's meeting. Regarding the weekly meeting, chaps, your attention is directed to the paragraph above.

In it we find embodied the vast hope of the Catholic Church to preserve the minds of the faithful from the danger of the For more than three printed word. centuries and in more than a hundred editions, the Index has been issued by The latest the Church from Rome edition, dated 1930. has the title in Italian.

Pope can condemn a book on his own initiative, such action is rare, the last occasion on which this power was exercised being as far back as 1862, when the German professor Frohschammer was proscribed. The fairness and justice with which . the Church treats this matter of book censorship is summed up in a ruling of Benedict XIV. on this matter:--"It • must also be borne in mind that it is impossible to judge fairly the meaning of a passage, unless the entire book is studied and unless the various statements found in different sections are compared with one another and the ▪ whole purpose of the hook steadily This is surely a rule I kept in view." which censorship authorities to-day might well keep in mind, for often a line or two with one of the six prohibited four-letter words in the English lanugage has been found in a masterpiece and the whole work supIn vain pressed on that account,. 4 authors have pleaded that the work • should be judged in accord with its - whole tenor and purpose and should not be condemned because of one word or paragraph.

World Notes of Interest The Progress of the Church: We hear the opinion from many quarters that to-day the contest is be. t ween the ,Catholic Church and the new Paganism, and with this in mind we believe that the following evidence of the amazing progress of the Church will be of compelling interest:— * France: In France the Church is flourishing abundantly • In 1932 Cardinal Verdier launched a plan to build 60 churches. Already 73 have been completed, and the Cardinal has increased his quota to Over 5,000 men were employed 100. on these works at one time. There are 47,000 priests in France. This is equal to one for every 877 people. The President. of the Republic, M, Lebrun, is a practising Catholic. General De Castelnan. one of the greatest war leaders, is President of th National Catholic Federation with 2.000,000 members. Holland: Catholics now have the highest per. centage of schools, Out of every 100 children, 39 attend '-'atholic schools. The Council schools have 34 per cent., and the Pr eestants only 27 per cent. America: Following the General Election in Canada, six Catholics became Cabinet Ministers—six out of fifteen. In Canada's population of 10,370,000 there are 4,285,000 Catholics. In the United States the Knights of Columbus began a rnobiliation for In six weeks "Catholic Action." 35,000 new member,. were secured. Over 150,000 men attended the "Holy ITour"at Cleveland Stadium during the National Eucharistic Congress. Over 25,000 were unable to gain admittance Africa: The White Fathers in .Africa announce that in one year they fiaptised 194,906 children and aduite This

number exceeded the previous year by 37,760. In their territory the Fathers are preparing 457.507 natives for baptism. In the Belgian Congo, in the heart of Africa, Catholics increased from 7S.026 to 176,076 in three years. Oriental Countries: India now has 3,395,000 Catholics, China has 2,702,468, an increase of 7e.908 in one year. There are 89 Bishops, of whom 14 are Chinese, Out of 4,014 priests, 1,447 are Chinese. Recently an ex-Premier of China, who is a priest, received into the Church Tcheng-Fou (pronounced Chong roo), a former member of the Chinese Foreign Ministry. Japan (including Koree,) has now 254,000 Catholics, whilst the new Empire of Manchukuo has 145,848 Catholics. and 49,000 are preparing for baptism. Japan has 12 Catholic periodicels. Great Britain: In England a new church is opened e very week. The Bishop of Hexham and Newcastle has opened 50 in ten Years. There are 12,000 conversions every year. and churches and schools are springing up everywhere throughout the country. The first National Eucharistic Congress in Scotland was a triumph. In Edinburgh and Glasgow anti-Catholic candidates in local elections were wiped out, There are now over 700 priests and 463 churches, and whilst the Catholic population in Scotlarel was only 25,000 after the Jacobite Rising in 1745, it is now nearly 1.000,000. The present Catholic Bishop of Edin burgh, Henry Graham, was formerly a Presbyterian minister. There are' over 300 Catholic -periodi cals published in England. England has a Catholic film censor a Mr. Tyrell, who was appointed in 1935. Captain Cecil Graves, the Brit ish Broadcasting (eorporatien Director of Programmec. is also a Catholic

This book has caused a tremendous amount of dissension among library and censorship authorities. The Australian authorities allow only certain editions of this work to enter Australia, and, though stocked by most public libraries, it cannot be issued to the general public. 1:?;,'“-lais was released by the Leonine Index, though his name has appeared since 1559. One might be surprised to find that a work like Tame, Joyce's "1."1 sses" does not appear on tne Index. This book is in a similar position to the "Decarneron." Many public libraries will not stock it; and in any case Australian libraries are f orbidden to issue it to the public. It is somewhat surprising to find also that D H. Lawrence's wo-ks. e.g., "Lady Chatterley's Lover," and Theodore Dreiser's "An American Tragedy" have not yet appeared on the Index. The. Book of Common Prayer has been forbidden to Catholics since 1714, while it should be interesting to note that in 1911 an attempt was made by many Catholics to have the 1911 edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica placed on the Index. An accusation was made that the Encyclopedia was openly and unfairly anti-Catholic; and e xamination shows that the charge was undoubtedly justified Exception was taken to all articles .pertaining to .the Faith, but especially to the article on "Mary, the Mother of Jesus." As an example of the objectionable nature of the article, there is the passage. -"She became the mother of Jesus Christ and afterwards had other children." The work. however, was not placed on the Index, though it effended Catholics the world over. It has been said that the one occasion on which an error occurred was in the much discussed case of Galileo, w hose system of astronomy, was declared false and opposed to Holy Scripture, Though Galileo willingly recanted his doctrine and confessed it heretical, it was later realised that the proscription against him was unjustified, and the matter was rectified. Such is the legislation of the Church on literature and reading. Deliberately to transgress the Index law is, according to theologians, a mortal sin. Some have thought fit to accuse the Church of injusticeand narrow-mindedness in formulating lier ecclesiastical laws on books. Those who realise the pitfalls and dangers to be encountered in indiscriminate reading realise that the Church is justified in the attitude she adoptsShe is as ever a kind mother, but she is also a wise one. Withal none realise better than she the truth of the old proverb, "A good book is the precious blood of a life master." but fortunately she is not blind to the dangers which beset the unwary reader on the broad field of literature.

The Director of "El Debate," Don Angel Herrera, Leaves Madrid. The director of "El Debate," the Catholic daily newspaper of Spain, and president of Spanish Catholic Action, Don Angel Herrera, is to become a priest. Together with some young professors he will devote himself to the training of priest-counsellors for Catholic Action. He will pursue his ecclesiastical studies at Fribourg, Switzerland. For a quarter of a century Senor Herrera. who is 48 years of age, has edited "El Debate." Before entering journalism he was State Attorney at Burgos for three years. He was born at Santander in 1886 and studied under the Jesuits at Valladolid. Under the direction of Father A yola he started the Catholic Rropagandists, an association of Y outh. About that time, "El Debate," which was begun 18 months before. was about to go out of existence. In agreement with Father Ayola. a group of Bilbao Catholics decided to purchase the paper and entrust it to the Propagandists. Senor Herrera was a ppointed editor.

Development of "Popular Action" Under Robles "VICTOKY FOR GOD

AND FOR

SPAIN"

(Continued.) The clique which seized power without a majority-mandate having banished King Alfonso for life. elected Senor Alvala Zamora President of the Republic; a debate on the new Constitution revealed the blind hatred of the Parliamentary members against the Catholic Church. It also attracted public interest towards the skill and ability with which a Young barrister pleaded and defended the Opposition minorThis young man of ity policy. 32 years was Senor Jose Maria Gil Robles. the outstanding perBesonality in Spain to-day. Gil Senor Revolution. fore the R obles devoted his time and energies to the Bar and journalistic enterprise, becoming subeditor of "El Debate," the great Spanish Catholic newspaper. in which capacity daily contact with the talented Senor Herrera played a big part in the formation of his spiritual and political character. In union with other Catholics he entered politics, and succeeded in winning the Salamanca seat in the June elections. Faithful to the doctrines learned from Senor Herrara. he resigned the sub -editorship of the Catholic newspaper and plunged himself into the political arena with energY and determination.

Senor Herrera's Great Work with his few colleagues, went to the Ritz Hotel, and there pledged themselves to inaugurate a national campaign in every corner of the country. On November 9, 1931, a monster meeting was held in Palencia, which the Republican Socialists did their best to break up, but without success. Twenty-six Catholic members of the Cortes attended, and made eloquent addresses on the political situation. On that occasion Senor Gil Robles said:

and the Nationalist Party of the Bask territory, who have done a great deal of harm- to the Catholic cause. A month after the Ceda was established, April, 1933, the first fruits of that organisation were reaped. Municipal elections held in several provinces even. tuated in severe defeat for Azana's Government. Senor A zana, however, ignored this first lesson, and continued to flout the will of the people. Frc.rn now on, Senor Gil Robles' efforts were concentrated in holding meetings of propaganda all over the country. In the meantime, up to the middle of September, the 400 members of the Constituent Cortes, instead of working for the good of Spain, spent their time and energies in framing new laws of persecution, not only against the Church, but also the Army. the Judiciary ,and State functionaries. Senor Azana and the Socialists ruled Spain in the most despotic and arbitrary manner imaginable. The Constitution was rendered completely nugatory b-- the Law of the Defence of the Republic. This law deprived the citizen of all the concessions guaranteed in the Republican Constitution, and empowered the Government to commit atrocities and punish with the severest penalties those found guilty of defending, even in theory, the Monarchy. On several occasions more than 200 daily newspapers of the Right were suspended over months. There never was a Government in Spain that showed such political ineptitude, that treated with such gross injustice and barbarity- its political opponents. and that proved itself so utterly in. capable of suppressing crime and murder as the one presided over by Azana. in. his two years of office. Public order and personal security were mere empty phrases. as assassinations and destruction of property continued without interuption.

©d a Mighty Trail"

A 29500 Miles Trek Across Australia Early in March, the Talbot Press issued a new book from the pen of Rev. Dr. J. T. McMahon, "Ramblers from Clare." The author has travelled far in both hemispheres, and has gathered good material wherever he went and is endowed with uncommon literary gifts. The new book, which is attractively presented. has been well received by overseas critics.

REV. DR. McNIAHON.

To a certain extent .the book is autobiographical. But Father McMahon is more interested in the strange places of his wanderings. and the strange people he has known, than in himself. The personal note is struck only to maintain the unity of his narra-

Father McMahon's story falls into five parts. and covers experiences in Australia. in Ireland, in the United .States, and in India. He gives precedence, to the record of a remarkable family of Irish pioneers. the Dttracks of East Clare. who got tog-ether (Treat herds of cattle in Central rieensland and drove them across he Australian enztinent t o pastures new in the Kimberlevs in the far North-West.

Into the Unknown.

Apart from the thrilling example of Irish enterprise and grit and endurance, it must ever afford, the event was destined to mark an epoch in the development of Australia. The route over which these big Claremen walloped their panting droves Ivas hitherto untrodden by the white man. But that coureageotos leap in the dark into the unknown—for such it was in reality - -opened up a new world to the antipodean settler. No wonder that. as Father McMahon says. the Durack name is an honoured o'ne in Australia to-day. It is still flourishing there as yell.

No problem so harasses the Catholic sociologist as the incre asing tide of Communism, especially of the type whic h looks to Moscow as the Mohammedans look to Mecca. In that advanced revolutionary school no pupils have proved more efficient than the Spanish radicals, who are pressing forward the Rev olution with all the finesse of bomb-throwing, incendarism and the looting of Churches and Convents. The ruthless Azana has sold out to Moscow, according to the best traditions which mar ked his previous perfidious reign. Recent cables announce that thirty Spanish Communists who have been studying revolutionary practice in Russia, left Moscow for their native country on Tue sday, after being exhorted to follow up recent Communist successe s plying the methods in which they have been train in Spain by aped.

.. The Arc adiacese P4t10.11

This apostolate of proclaiming som ething positively and with polite aggression is not merely one suggestion among many for the Catholic graduate and undergraduate. - It is his exclusive field of operation, the one for which he alon e is equipped, and which, in view of the Pope's explicit plans in this direction, cannot in conscience he shelved or ignored. It is usel is no occasion for presenting the Cath ess to pretend that there olic viewpoint in the University. When a professor states openly in a lecture that, as a psychologist, he has no morals, it is time for the Catholic undergraduate to rise in the lecture-room and made in the image of God, the professo ask whether, as a man r has any brains? When the lecturer in philosophy has ceased the panegyrics of Kant, Hamilton, and Bishop Berkeley, it is the opportune moment to inquire whether he has ever heard of Thomas of Aquin. Or again, the stale jokes against the schoolmen mig ht be counter -checked by some of the newer chuckles against the men who are not sure whether they exist. So the process might profitably be extended into history, economics, art and scien ce. But to accomplish this, to build up a strong body of organised Catholic thought, postulates that the Cath olic undergraduate is sufficiently appreciative of the truth and prepared to do a tremendous amount worth of the Faith as to be of reading and study outside of, and in addition to his course. The present aspect of the world's muddle suggests that those subjects with Nvhich the Catholic University student cannot afford to be unacquainted, are, in order of importance: Philosophy, history, econ omic all these matters the Church is exception s and psychology. In ally fortunate in haying at the moment a unique array of relia ble authorities, many of the more popular being laymen with Univ ersity Maritain, °andel, Belloc, Chesterton, Dawson, Gilli training. s, Kno x, and Martindale are hut a few of the names in that formidable host. Then, of course, in addition to. and above the inte llect. the Vill must be trained to zeal. cotrageonsness and constanc y. The Catholic must always have a sufficient motive, for the will will follow only where the intellect leads. Tint nothing is more futile or cont emptible than mere "intellectualism." Nothing will prov e a grea ter stimulus in the splendid apostolate of the Universi ty student than ordinary fidelity to Catholic practice, and the study of the Life of Christ. Of this spiritual fibre, so indispensible and yet looked. University Sunday is the splendid annu so apt to he overal testimony and reminder. •

Kalgoorlie Notes

ti

Debutantes at Busselton Ball

IS, 1936.

On Eater Sunday. the greatest feast of the year, the choir at St. Mary's Kalgoorlie, sang Church, "Haydn's Mass in B Flat- in a most brilliant style, under the baton of the able conductor, Mr. T. Connolly, of whose skill we cannot speak too highly. The "Kyrie" opened with adagio for the first twelve bars, then comes an allegro xnoderato with some brilliant work right to the end, which was most enjoyable. The "Gloria" expresses sentiments of beauty and tenderness in all the parts. Of the pro. fusion of melody in this Mass the "Credo" is an example. The "Et incarnatus" in E Flat adagio is of poetcal design and profound expression. Then comes the "pas-sus" with its crescendo. which possesses an awful beauty in its elevation of feeling sublime. Then comes the "EtResurrexit" and also the "Et vitam,which proceeds with music of a vigorous and dramatic colouring which would have pleased any critic. This point of clear invitation is the work of the master. The "Benedictus" begins with the theme for a quartette movement, and is a very elegant piece of music. Then comes the "Agnus Dei" in B Flat Minor, depending on the beauty of the melodious parts for its interest, and in this respect it is perfection. closing as the movement does, in a strain of extreme solemn. ity.

MortAcoe on Corner Lifted Generous Gesture of Messrs. Isaac Cohen and Moses Splotvoski —One very cheer-

Thanks to the generosity of those Cornerites whose particular and prac. tical sympathy went out to Tiddles and Aunt Bessy during the weeks when they were under threat of eviction owing to the mortgage on the Corner and Typewriter, a settlement has been effected with the mortgagees, Messrs. Cohen and Sprotvoski, and owing to the 4 4 1urtesy of these gentlemen Aunt Bessy still retains her property and the interest charged on her loan has been presented to the Fund, so that £14 Ifis 6d has been added to the £50 raised for the ransom of Sandy McDougall, making a total of £64 1Ss 6d. This generous gesture on the part of the Gentlemen of the Three Balls will, we feel sure, strongly appeal to and probably to none more than to the dear old lady whose mind has suffered such grave anxiety during the upsetting period since her favourite nephew was captured by the Rottnest Interviewed on Easter MonSirens. day night, she and Tiddles presepted pictures of satisfied serenity, their one grief now being that the poor Wet Blanket, who fell into the goldfishes' howl on last Wednesday night week. and '..'ho was in consequence turned into a mermaid will he obliged to remain in that condition until after

The Iron Man's Humiliation Leaves His Country For His Country's Good

GOVERNMENTAL UNEASINESS. i lAT President Cardenas is anxious to conciliate the Church in Mexico and is filled with anxiety over the international aspect of his Government's continuance of the religious persecution, has been made evident by several recent utterances both by himself and by Emilio Gil, \ttorney General Despite the of the Republic. avowed Socialistic programme of t he present regime, it would appear that Cardenas is at once the most sane and disinterested of t he ruthless and piratical line of dictators xvlio have ruled Mexico during the last century of republicanism. There have been a number of indications that Cardenas realises that religious freedom and liberty of conscience must return to -Mexico if social order is ever to be restored—and this despite his efforts to save the international face of the situation by denials of the existence of religious persecution.

T

The Cunning of Cardenas. let, whatever (.,. ardenas' good intentions, nis policy has been effectively stilled botn by Masonic influences at home and abroad, and most ui all perhaps by the sinister power of Canes, who, though retired from active political Me these seven years, nas yet continued to exert considerable influence upon Mexican politics. Cardenas, however, has bided his time and at length a coup has been made which may change completely the fortunes of the Church. On Friday last, Calks and three of his henchmen were arrested and deported in a suctien and dramatic fashion. This surprise move was made by President Cardenas' Government to remove the one man likely to challenge the supreme authority of the existing regime. Early in the morning Federal troops and police arrested General Calles, Luis Morones (formMinister), Luis er Labour Lemon (former Minister for the Interior), and Rafael Ortega ( former Governor of the State of Guanajuato). They were unceremoniously bundled aboard an a eroplane and flown to the United States. Apparently they had no warning of the impending arrests, as all four were found in their homes. It is officially stated that their deportations follow . ed evidence implicating them in the blowing up of the Vera Cruz Mexico City express on April 7, with the loss of about 50 lives., Humiliation of "The Iron Man." How are the mighty fallen! In all Mexico's revolutionary history, Plutarco Calles was out. Yet s tandingly the Iron Man. in a moment he is bundled off to

Exit Canes U.S.A. like a bundle of mail matter. We are not concerned here with his private life or his personal sins but rather with the ideas he represents in public action and the constitutional and legislative acts which are his responsibility. Precept and Practice. 11every ) extraordinary feature o f the 1 ron Man's rule is that he in-fringed practically every tyrannical regulation that he forCed upon the Mexican public. The new Constitution of 1917 which was promulgated at the bayonet's end and never even submitted to popular ratification made ni tarism the source (/ all law and destroyed the first principles of Liberalism. But Canes further extended its r estrictions though he personally did not feel in any way bound by t hem. For instance a minister of religion lost the franchise and became ineligible for any office. Yet a Methodist clergyman was Minister for Education under CalAgain Calles' two little les. daughters attended a Sisters' school in Mexico City and Calles was nursed back to health in a religious hospital in Los An-

geles though both these matters directly contravened the Constitution. The Penalty of Protest. During his term as President, and ever since Calles has been enon Article 430, which is aimed directly at the Church Catholics naturally a!vealed to v arious authorities against the t yranny And for having dared to do so were insulted, gaoled, tortured. and murdered.

In one State; one priest was allowed for every 100,000 people. The proportion of clergy to population in 1810 was 1 to 834, which was the largest number of clergy in Mexico. Since that time it has steadily diminished. "For the existence of these persecuting -laws." writes Bishop Kelly, "Plutarco Galles is chiefly responsible. It requires the most hopeless condition of blind hatred in anyone— American, Mexican. even Moslem—to restrain him from ask-

Senator Slates Government "The deplorable feature of this inaction,- said the Senator, "is that although the wheat-growing industry is infinitely more important to Western Australia than it is to any other State or State Government—Western Australia should be first in the field—we find the State Government lagging behind in this matter," Senator Lynch pointed out that he had checked the official figures, which proved that had a home consumption price of wheat been fixed in Western Australia every farmer would receive just on 2d. per bushel more for his w heat than from the Flour Tax. "It is difficult to remain cool when one sees the neglect of an opportunity like this of helping the most deserving class in the community, when we have the State Government refusing to act, although it has the power to do so," he said.

SENATOR P. J. LYNCH. Having just returned from the farming ircas and seen the difficulties tylder which the farmers are labouring for the third successive adverse season, the President of the Senate, Senator P. J, Lynch, was, on Tuesday, emphatic in his contention that the State Government was dilatory in doing what other Governments had proved could be done easily.

The American Government, said the Senator, had given a bonus to the farmer of 10d. per bushel, and the Labour Government of New Zealand had guaranteed the farmer a price in the region of 5s. per bushel, but in this State the Government, which could make a grant of 17,000 to Broome. could not assist the man on the land. Possibly the fact that the political representation of the North-West port differed from that of the farming corn. triunity had something to do with the decision, although he said that he appreciated the fact that in Broome there had been loss of life.

Iron Man or Puppet? Yet Calles, for all his brutzu it and . unscrupulousness, was not the type that could stand alone. All through his pubi s career it was plain that the powcihe exercised was not of hinisel . That master villainy which culminated in the martyrdom of Father Miguel Pro, S.j., his brother Humberto, Luis Segura, and Juan Tirado. was inexplicably followed in the Holy Week of 1928 by a conference with the R ev. John Burke, and vet another in May, with Archbishop Ruiz V Flores. These attempts at conciliation. which he seemed to regard rather as cunning compromise, were immediately gone back Upon and broken But they suggest the actions of one who dares not go too far without a master's approbation. Calles was never the master. The issue was clearly drawn before his time between radicalism and religion, on it he had no choice because he had no freedom. There was a master in that red group that he feared to dis, lbev. Exit Canes. Calles has left his country for his country's good. We fancy his vacation will be prolonged, for tIle lcxican people can have no yearnings for a return of the Terror. What lies ahead for Mcxico none can say. But that Cardenas has banished the exvillain and permitted the clergy o return may be sharlow of good 'Iings to come
