Stanislaus - Gillet Begins Inspection With_ America First. Head of Catholic Order Be- liever in Radio and Aviation as Aids to Work. Starting with America first on his| Dominican in-, world inspection tour stitutfons, Most Rev. Stanislaus Gillet, master general of the Order of Preach- ers (Domnlicen Fathers), arrived in Washington Tuesday afternoon from New York. 3 H This is not the mastér general's first visit to the United States, as in 1926 he attended the Eucharistic Congress held in Chicago. “I have a special interest for Ameri- cens,” Father Gillet said, “as I saw & great deal of them during the war, when at my home near Verdun, they stopped the German advance.” ‘Although the master general is French and for ‘meny years was professor at the Catholic Institute in Paris and served as provincial of the Dominican Order in France, since his élevation to the position of master general of the Domiinican Order he has had head- quarters in Rome. Admires Young People. Father Gillet is a great admirer and lover of young people. His eves lighted sympathetically as he remarked: “Young people must be approached I have closely studied the younger generation in all parts of the world, and I find that they are all very much alike. They are open-minded and generous, |and I greatly. admire their eagerness and spirit.” The master general is an ardent ad- | vocate of the radio as & means to reach the non-attending church world. “Three years ago,” he said, “I first preached over the radio in «Paris with @& Jesuit priest. Our success was phe- nomenal, and we have continued our radio sermons ever since.” Father Gillet also organized a union of Fremch artists and actors, to whom he has been spiritual advisor. Every Sunday in the Dominican Church in Paris, there is now a special mass for the members of this organization, at which many of the leading artists of the French theatrical world sing the music of the mass. Missionary Airplanes. Father Gillet belleves that the air- plane will be an important vehicle-to the missionary of the near future. Al- | though members of his order have not as yet used the airplane in their work, the. master general pointed out that the trip from Paris to Mesopotamia, where there are many Dominican in- stitutions, can now be made in two days' time. Father Gillet has written 15 books on philosophy, Catholic theology and doc- trines. During his tour of inspection, he will visit practically every part of the world, including South America, Asia and Africa, . ‘Dominican sisters #nd fathers have established schools, hospitals and orphanages in all these localities.
