Those who took part In organizing the demonstration have been recipients of words of praise from the Pope, and conveyed to them by Willlam Cardinal O'Con- nell, ranking American prelate and pvapal delegate to the convention. Committee chalrmen and leaders of the convention received speclal med- ils brought from Rome by Cardinal O'Connell, and it was thought at the time that this distinction was un- usual; therefore further honors were totally unexpected. ‘It is understood that the recom- mendatigns were made to the Holy See by €ardinal O'Connell after con- ence with Archbishop Curley of Baltimore and thorough Investigation of the standing in the community of the three men. Mr. Haltigan has been active for many years in the work of the Holy Name Soclety, heading his parish or- ganization at St. Paul's Church, Fif- teenth and V streets, the Washington section and the Baltimore Archdio- cesan Union.
