CHURCH QUESTION RAISED England Is Discussing Whether It Would Bé Right to Give Last Sacra- ment to MucSwiney. London, Sept. 1.—The question has been widely discussed here recently As to whether it is justifiable to give the last sacrament to hunger strikers, it being maintained by many persons that to all intents such strikers were commiitting suicide. Father Bernard Vaughan, who {s famous for his ser- mons and writings, today made the following statement to the press as- sociation regarding the subject: “Personally from my reading of | theology, moral and dogmatic, 1 should not feel éntitled to administer the rites of the church te anyone, no matter what his nationality, who was deliberately dying through a hunger strike. But 1 am free to admit that other theologians far more learned than I am, would réverse my verdict on the subject. “Some moralists there are, who @eny that hunger striking cannot be | justified; ©fheérs have drawn a dis- tinction between objective through this and subjéctive error. But as you Are asking for my personal view of the subject, T give it for what it is worth, Without comment upon any- one who may différ from me.” FRESH AIR CAMP CLOSES Burlington Recreation Center May Bécome a Part of City’s Permafient ‘Weirare Work.
