"Fascism's Womenr_li A SECTARIAN CHALLENGE Slaves" The July issue of "World Peace," the monthly bulletin of the Australian Council Against War and Fascism, published in S ydney. contained an article entitled "Fascism's Women Slaves." w hich was a review of an article ly\ Miss Sylvia Pankhurst, and appeared in the Sydney "Church S tandard."

Pope Pius proceeds: "From this it is deal that legitimately constituted :au'hority . has the right. and therecore the duty, to restrict, to prevent and to punish those base unions which are opposed to reason and to nature." One might quote to considerable length trom this same Letter, but the best course is for the critics to lead it for themselves. Miss Pankhursi has made herself foolish over her sensational outburst. The "ChurchStandard" and "World Peace" cut very sorry figures as the publishers of what we have shown to be falseheods. arising either from ignorance or malice.

Ai least three of the Corporative States are based on the Papal Encyclicals, and promise to be nurseries of Christianity. IN'hy has "World Peace" such a dread of Fascism, while not the slightest notice is taken either of Capitalism or Communism. Is it a sectarian issue, because Fascism happens to have originated in a Catholic nation? Or is "World Peace" the publication of a Communistic affiliation:. This is certainly an issue that ought to be made clear. The most recent policy of Communism is an at;empt to "white-ant" existing organisations. Is the Council Against War and Fascism one of its dupes and if not how can it ignore Communism. whose basic principle of class-war is the most complete antithesis of all that the Council claims to uphold.

Archbishop Duhig's Suggestions Speaking to 170 members of the Holy Name Society at Bowen Hills recently, on the occasion of the branch's second annual Communion breakfast, His Grace the Archbishop of Brisbane ( Most Rev. J. Duhig, D.D.), foreshadowed several important developments in the Soci,ety, and made some far-seeing sugg-estions which he would like the members of the Society to act upon. His Grace said that he desired practical to advocate certain movements in the Society itself. He spoke in favour of sectional societies, bound together under the Holy Name. For instance, men who belonged to some particular group of workers. or followed a trade or calling, could form a section. We might thus have a lawyers' club, a doctors' club, a police section, and so on. but in such a case the Holy Name Society must be supreme. It was intended very shortly to call a meeting in order to discuss the formation of a Central Council, which was a long-felt need, and this matter could receive consideration at that meeting. He would like also to see the formation of Study Clubs in the Catholic Holy Name Society. men lost half their power unless they combined knowledge of their Faith with its practice, more especially knowledge of social problems and conditions, and how these problems should be He had noticed that in solved. America there was inaugurated recently a movement to study systematically .the Encyclicals of Popes Leo XIII and 7ius XI., who had given to the world a real solution of the great social and international problems, a solution which was based en the teachings of Christ. No Catholic man could say that he was really acquainted with the problems of Labour and Capital, with the application of right principles to working class movements, unless and until he had read and studied, and had made his own, those wise woi-ds of the two Popes. Very rarely did we see any reference to these Encyclicals in the daily press. If some British statesman had given anything like them to the world, he would he immortalised, and his words found in hooks in every library connected with the English language, and in translations in most foreign countries. Of course, there had been and still were, great men who realised the great worth of the En"cyclicals, but their study should he taken up by the universities Such and. schools of thought. valuable contributions to the world's wisdom should not be men and hidden away from workers more than anyone else should make themselves familiar with them, for the Encyclical of Leo XIII. on The Condition of Labour was really the charter the working man. He hoped, therefore, that rnese study clubs would be formed, so that a study of the Encyclicals and of all the enlightening literature that was to be found would help them to understand the problems of to-day, which were far greater than those of any other period.

Arrangements are in hand for the great Catholic social event of the year —the Catholic Ball—which is to be held at the Embassy Ballroom on August 24. The advisability of this annual function lies in that it enables Catholics to meet in their own social atmosphere. While there is plenty of social life generally, there is very little specifically Catholic where Young Catholics especially may meet one another. That all may give this annual function their patronage, the committee has endeavoured to keep the costs within the reach of everybody. Hence Tickets single. the moderate admission prices of 12/6 double ticket, 7/6 may be obtained at NIusgrove's, Pellegrim's, and the Palace, Victoria Square.

THE RECORD.
VERSUS c2v1- OSC W (By STANLEY B. JAMES.) R ussia is the "war" that really matters. Since the days of the Northmen and the Saracens, Christendom has not been in such peril. The Role of Italy. We cannot hope that Communism can be met by the ordinary ministry of the Church. This may strengthen the resistance of the faithful and affect a small number of the non-Catholic population, but to expect more is to assume the coming of a powerful spiritual movement, of which at present there is no sign.
- SSOLINI, vho created modern Rome. we found a Protestant controversialist dwelling on the sins of some particular Pope and imagining that thereby he was destroying the c laims of the Church we should bestow a pitying smile on his Nothing cotild be ignorance. further from lily mind than to put any race or nation in the position of the Papacy, yet when I find indignant writers and speakers constantly reminding us of imperialistic sins in AbysItaly's .. ainia I cannot but see a certain parallel. A Broader Sweep. The whole question needs to be looked at in a broader context and in a more serious spirit than Human govthose indicated. a people infallible, ernments are toxicated with the heady fumes of renewed power after long centuries of disunity. impotence. and neglect is especially liable to commit faults. But, seen in the right perspective, and having due regard to the gravity of the present crisis, this is comparatively insignificant. We have reached a new phase in dealing with the question of The failure world-government. of the democratic method exemplified in the League of Nations makes it necessary to ask whether the peace which is so urgently needed will not he achieved by the dominance of some one power. The War That Really Matters. The fact, of course, is obvious t hat at least one government is aiming at occupying that posiMoscows adherence to tion. the League is the thinnest kind of hypocrisy. Russia makes no secret of her intention to effect a world-wide r evolution that will constitute her the head of a new materialistic and atheistic civilisation. Even while her representatives sit at Geneva, her agents are busy in the various countries of the world creating the nuclei of a communSkilfully existic world-order. ploiting the discontent of the proletariat and the mischief-makmg instincts of a sceptical intelligentsia. they are already proving a menace to the stability of the present regime. Whilst our eves are fixed on the question of militarism, it is this infinitely dangerous propaganda, employing violence, but not according to military methods, which is the real problem. The class-war as carried on by
The only effective check must come, first of all ,on a lower level. It must come from the influence of some counter political philosophy consistent with Catholic teaching, universally applicable, and sponsored by a specific people whose capital and country might become the centre of. a civilisation. I have no doubt in my mind that it is this role which is assigned to Italy and the Corporativism which it embodies. like Fascism, the National Socialism of Gerwas m a n v. bi ought into the field by the communistic inenace. Like the German movement it has succeeded in supCompressing munism in the land of its origin. are But there great differences between the two. Fascism is the creation of a race among whom Catholicism is inand digencms whose people are, as regards religion. well nigh homogeneous. It has shown itself officially and actually more friendly to the Charch and, as has been frequently stated in the "Catholic Herald." it is more than probable that it is in the manner here defined that it is looked upon by the Vatican—viz., as a secular barrier capable of holding up, at
least for time, the threatened flood of Comunism. But in addition to these things, it must be remembered that behind Italy lies a great tradition looking towards precisely the state of things which, as I hold, may be hopefully anticipated in the present crisis.

,Three hundred thousand copies 04 "The Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk" have been sold since 1836, and in many cases they are believed, writes Father P. Joy, S.J., in "The Rock." The story, put out in the first place for vile propaganda purposes a hundred years ago, is but one of the many tales of alleged convent horrors and nuns" "escaped which gull only the uneducated and bigoted sections of non-Catholics. It is interesting to review this notorious case to-day— a pathetic centenary.

Maria arrived in New York at a time when bigotry against the Catholic Church ran high there. She had all the requirements of a first-class. "convent scandal"— she was young, demure. pretty, the mother of a child of unknown paternity, and she claimed to be an ex-nun of the famous Hotel Dieu Convent of Montreal. And this is the public story she had to tell : Though the child of Protestant p arents. she said she had attended a convent school of the Sisters of Charity at Montreal. She begged for and obtained permission to enter the "Black tinnery" (the convent of the Hotel Dieu) at Montreal as a novice. she said, though then she was but 12 years old. After four or five years as a novice (another bad slip, as any Catholic would recognise), she quarrelled with a nun and left the convent. Back in the world. Maria' tells us that she fell in with a had character, married him, left him. and then returned to the convent. where she was admitted as a nun. Then the real horrors begin—the "most heinous and detestable crimes" of the nuns, a long, crude, most unconvincing tale of horrors culminating in the preposterous "murder of Sister St. Francis." No finer body of women in the world have been so disgustedly slandered, but Maria Monk's absurd book was "taken up" everywhere where prejudice and ignorance lurked. Of course there \ vas the most searching inquiry as to the real facts—an inquiry

Maria was found to be an incorrigible liar in all directions, apart altogether from her ridiculous convent fabrication. The whole hoax was fully exposed. The erirl's own mother made a s worn statement in order, she said, to guard the public from designing men who "had taken advantage of the occasional mental derangement of her daughter." She told how the Rev. Mr. Hoyte. one of the bigoted "soolers" of the time, had begged, threatened, and finally offered to bribe her to the tune of £100 ii she would testify that her daughter had been a nun in a convent. But Mrs. Monk swore the plain truth that Maria had never been in a convent in her life. The truth all came out. Maria had been an inmate of a house or ill-fame.

The growth of the movement for euthanasia had its origin in "suicide pacts." Of reecnt years. as we know, there has been an almost complete disappearance of belief in the theological objection to suicide—a great and sad contrast to the attitude towards it in the Middle Ages, when very severe punishment was meted out to those attempting it, mainly because of the implied insult to man's Creator, in Whose hands alone lies the power of life and death. That aspect of God's dominion over His creatures has, in the minds of most people outside the Catholic Church, given way to the changed idea of life, so prevalent to-day, that life belongs to each individual as his own property, not a precious gift of God the Creator for His own high purposes.

There has been also, in recent years, a great change in the attitude of men towards pain; the idea of pain as a means of discipline, when rightly understood, has dropped out of sight. True, this elimination of human pain and suffering is all to the good. But endurance has a very high moral value, as we have had proved to us again and again. To-day we have at our command a very large and ever-increasing diversity of remedies— therapeutic remedies, methods and processes of which our forefathers never even dreamed. This is a great boon to humanity; for the variety of diseases which may attack the human body are so numerous and so diverse that we have to work constantly and tirelessly in order to keep pace with them. With all this good there has grown the disinclination to suffer anything at all, even to endure the most ordinary discomfort. Medicine rightly aims at the completest elimination of the pain which is possible to compass and there is great difficulty in treating of the moral aspect of endurance without giving false impressions. The unfortunate mental defectives, on whom we may certainly lavish our sympathy, in that they are deprived by their affliction of many intellectual privileges. do not suffer at all on that account, and are usually very happy in the natural sense. is true of many idiots, :nnatics. and imbeciles. The present-day standpoint regarding these appears to be: "These people have nothii:g to (rive to the world of men and women that is of value • tl..eir lives are. therefore, uttcrly useSurely it is less. better that they should die, than live on, an incubus on oilt-2.-s and not useful in any way.' So the system of "voluntary euthanasia" is full of dangers; one very grave aspect being that it may tempt unscrupulous people—relatives or others—to put an end to the life of a poor old man or woman, or an incurable person. for the sake of insurance money, or such consideration. Think of the position of an invalid who has come to feel himself a burden on his relations. He may reason thus: "I am standing in the way of my son's giving ti: his children the better education which they might be haying if I were not with them causing great expense!' Or: "I am spoiling the young life of my dattg-h ter, who might be sharing in the many pleasures now denied her, because she is so constantly attending on me and has to give 1p these things in consequence." Under such legislation as is contemplated in this proposed system, he or she could ask for the lethal chamber and be at once freed from further pain, and the relatives from further obligation and trouble.
Is this ideal refuge for old people and others of its kind to be turned into wholesale slaughterhouses? The thought is repulsive beyond all consideration. Yet that is what is implied by this idea of euthanasia. The same reasoning applies to mental defectives, and to those suffering from emotional and hysterical maladies, who are certainly a great trial in many cases to their immediate relatives or their attendants and nurses in institutions. One could give many instances in which such temptations to "judicial murder" exist, with the moral evil of a human being usurping the place of the Creator. From the point of view of the physician, "euthanasia" is nothing less than murder, or suicide under compulsion.

Legion of I ndecency Our press recently announced the formation in Canada of a secret society known as the "Black Legion.- It appeared similar to the infamous Kit. Klux Klan and held Catholics as the object of its special odium. The full text of the Black Legion's oath was given to the Canadian Press recently by offiJackson Michigan's cials of Numerous copies of County. the oath were discovered by the police in a raid upon the home of one Ray Ernest, a Legionnaire ,now being held in connection with the death of a Catholic A study of this recitizen. together markable document, with the realisation that it has actually been sworn to by at least several thousand persons. will probably give the ordinary American a pretty severe case of the blues. He will again be reminded that this country, despite its public-school system and its high literacy, is still cursed with a horde of educated sub-idiots who believe that wrong is right. selfi shness is virtue, persecution is patriotism. and lawlessness is devotion to the Constitution.
JESUITS
The Black Legion's oath begins by professing faith in a Supreme Being and piously offering Him honour. Shortly afterwards it binds its takers to the extermination of anarchists, Communists, the Catholic hierarchy. and their abettors. Praising the love of liberty, it commands hatred for Jews and discrimination against Negroes. it preaches an ideal of honour. and then commands members to lie whenever lying think superior officers might he helpful. It praises peace and civil tranquillity, then pledges members to armed revolt against laws which might be f avourable to the Church. Calling upon the name of God, it states the Legion's objective to be "to destroy, despoil, and kill our enemies." The oath, with its childishly gruesome language and its incredible promises, would ordinarily be a thing for laughter. The State of Michigan, however, is inclined to regard it seriously, and is investigating the connection of the Black Legion with the death o f more than fiftv citizens.

HE five brief years of Republicanism in Spain have been as one inglorious crowded hour. The ninth major revolt in that pefiod is at present running its course. It is perhaps more serious even than the Asturias revolt in 1933; it is certainly more widespread. But it is t0t2lly different because its represents the complete failure of the Moscow -financed Left and its unscrupulous Masonic leader, Azana. It is the answer of the people to five months of anarchy and treacherous surrender to a foreign power by its leaders. Since Azana and the Left Wing Radicals won the general elections in February by terrorism and the "framing" of votes, the country has been plunged into unceasing foment. In the first month of the new Government's tenure. 106 churches were pillaged. 303 churches and convents burned. about 300 people killed, and a thousand injured. When these figures were quoted in the Cortes. the Socialist Deputy protested that the destruction of churches was not in keeping with the traditions of the Socialists. hut that they understood, without approving, how the churches happened to be burnt. Catholics. the world over, will challenge the extent of the SGcialist comprehension.

Women Under Capitalism, IN its its high-minded endeavour to keep the people mindful of the in which they live, the secular press, from time to time, raises mild controversies on standard questions of the day. Quite recently the issue at-stake was "Business or home?" A number of typists and business girls were interviewed for their opinions on marriage as a career. Many of the views expressed can most charitably be classed as jocular, though even so, they were very obtuse jokes, seeing they invariably rebound ed upon their originators. But what really needs correction about this sort of thing is the general approach. There is a large amount of stupidity connected with the regarding of marriage as one of many careers. It is not more pointless to talk about salt water as the environment of a fish. And the modern idea that business "emancipates" women from the home conveys about as much meaning as to talk of a fish being emancipated from the sea for the oversea m arkets. • " • • Capitalism, in this its declining phrase, has made the lot of the many exceedingly hard. It has certainly forced many women to enter business in order to supplement the family income. But not only has it affected their external condition, but also their outlook. So that a modern woman can actually he found who regards modern business as an aspect of liberty! Whatever else a career offers a woman, it certainly is a complete and essentia l denial of freedom. And somehow human sentiment ought to be stirred by the aspect of a whole horde of female economic serfs. It is bad enough. in all conscience, that the majority of men in a nation should be servants instead of masters, but women have 1,ecome yet greater serfs because they may be bought at a lesser cost. Yet, many. are found to exult therein! What is particularly a— tonishing is that they have accepted even the ghastly regimentation of the present industrial system. They have suffered the lords of the Nvheels to dictate what they shall wear at business. Nv herea they would never st.ffer a husband to suggest what they shiluirl wear at home. Constantly in this issue one is forced back upon fundamental-. And the fundamental in the social question is the home. There can be no* home without a woman who is the mother of children. When a modern Miss seriously states that she prefers business t,, marriage, it is'as though she had preferred a typewriter to a baby. The whole confused issue could be cleared up overnight if the feminist demand for wage equality were met. Men ‘voLld instantly supplant them in business. and they would be forced back to the home. Even then. of course. marriage would not be on a reasonable basis. Men will have to be paid a decent living wage. sufficient to maintain a wife and children in reasonable comfort. This is the basic reform which must come soon. Meantime women will continue their careers. It is notable, however, that wherever industrialism is most developed, social conditions are in the last extremity and the lot of women deplorable. Let them have careers if they must. They are bought at a great price —the priee of nature and of liberty. -11H11. 41141-411411.411100. -OW 141.--41 . - 411. ADO.
in cold fact the current issue in Spain was inevitable. Spain is Catholic and even still, largely monarchical, though the Right was sharply divided over the question of regime. By trickery and t errorism Azana came to power. A radical constitution, aimed at the Church and subversive of the most elementary human rights and liberty, was forced upon the people. But worse a thousand times. Spain's perfidious leaders were openly selling the country to the Russian Comintern. The usual weapons of pillage, arson. violence, strikes and assassination were employed. The Catholic leader has tried first every means to conciliate, but his efforts were foredoomed to failure. What was a patriot to do in the face of anarchy and barbarism? When Europe was imperilled by the hordes of Turkey, men thought it a fine thing that Don John of Austria should lead a crusade. Lepanto stood for liberty. Robles is faced, on a national scale with no less an issue. She uid hc stand by and see Catholicism and the Catholic culture of Spain mowed down by "communist penetration into occidental politics?" W e think not, because here clearly is the case of a just war.

It is not without significance that when Gil Robles found he could achieve nothing by "constitutional" methods, and could not even get a hearing in the Cortes, both he and the Monarchist leaders left the Cortes. A few weeks ago their homes were visited for the ostensible purpose of assassination. But the birds had flown. The earliest cables of the revolution stated that Robles was at Biarritz. safely over the French border. but conveniently at hand when the time was ripe for constructive action. Briefly it seems obvious that this revolution was engineered at least with the connivance of the Catholic leader. Of course the Liberal Press will grow hysterical about the extreme measures of the Right, just as it completely ignored the voice of Spain when it gave the government to the Right in 1933. The pacifists. too, will burn with a white hot flame for the atrocities which necessarily accompany civil war, complacently ignoring the intolerable tactics of the Left these past five years.
