ThesuspensionoftheCommunist newspaper,"11Lavoratore,"bythe Fascists,andtheexpulsionoftwoCommunistcollaboratorsfromTriestehas beenbitterlyresentedbytheItalian Communists.SignorBombacci,who voicedtheobjectionsoftheCommunists,wasansweredbySignorGuinta, FascistDeputyfromTrieste."We cannotallowCommunistpapersto carryoncriminalpropagandaagainst theinterest.ofthenation."Hubbub followedandmutualabuseasCommunistandFascistdeputiesjoinedin thediscussion,hurlingdefianceoneat theother.DeputyBombaccishouted:"ThereisnolawinItalyagainst Communists.Untilsuchalawis passedwecansayanythingweplease."

DonSturzotooksideswiththem, thoughhedidnotmakeanattackaggressivelyonFascism.Forthetime thedisputewassettledandmatters wentonmuchasbefore.butthose whoknewhoweffectivelyDonSturza hadorganisedtheelectorsforesawthat astormwasbrewing.NodoubtDon SturzoandmanyofhisfollowersrecognisedthatMussoliniwassucha PrimeMinisterasthesituationofthe countryneeded,butatthesametime dislikedthesystemofdictatorship

Mussolini'sPersonalInfluence.

RutacuteobserverssawthatMussolini'sinfluencewasdeclining,andrecently.theRomancorrespondentof the"Times,"indescribing"TheTask ofFascismo."statedthat"atnotime sincetheFascistaRevolutionhaveSignorMussoliniandhispartybeenin suchdangerasatthepresentmoment."

"YourReasonableService"

(ByJohnS.Brasil,0.C.M.)

Themostcheeringfactaboutthe stateoftheChurchatpresentisthe unmistakableEucharisticrevival, whichisquickeningtheCatholicworld, andwhichshowsitselfintheinnumerablemultiplicationoffrequentCommunicants,theholdingofEucharistic Congresses,theconsecrationofhomes totheSacredHeart,thespreadofthe KnighthoodoftheBlessedSacrament, andthemoreintelligentinterestshown intheHolySacrificeoftheMass.

BeingchildrenoftheChurch.it shouldbeourambitiontotakeour partinthisrenewalofappreciationof thegreatSacrifice,theperpetuationof whichintheChurchgivesusallthe goodgiftswhich"cometogetherwith it."

"WhateverthePassiondidordoes." saysBishopHedley."theMasscan do."Wemustthenlookuponthe MassasnothinglessthantheSacrifice ofCalvary,soperformedastobemore perfectlyapplicabletoindividualsouls.

"Itisforthisreasonthattheone SupremeSacrificegoesonthroughout allgenerations-thatindividualsouls maymoreeffectivelypartakeofits benefits.Itisgiventouswithallthe stupendousmiraclesofmercywhichit involves,inorderthatthegracesof thePreciousBloodmaybemoreimmediatelyathandtous.Itisfor thistheAltarofSacrificestandscontinuallyinthemidstofeachChristian flock."

ButtheChristianflockshouldrememberthattheAltarofSacrifice callsforanintelligentofferingontheir part,togetherwiththepriest,ofthe DivineVictimmysticallyslain,asSt. JohnChrysostomsays,"bythesword ofthewords."

"Thefundamentalideaintheliturgy oftheMass,"saysFatherNieuwbarn, "istheunionofpriestandfaithful." InthefirstagesoftheChurchthe prayerofthepriestalternatedwith thatofthepeople;atpresenttheservertakestheplaceofthepeople,and makestheresponses.Hence,the variousanswersaremerelytheliturgical.repliesgiveninthenameofall,to theexhortationofthepriest,counsellinghumilityinprayer,attention,Christianjoy.andgratitude.
