THE VELVET TURBAN OF WINTER SUCCUMBS TO THIS A dashing crown of cerise velvet over a close band of novelty black straw composes this spring hat. The only trimming is five flappy pink roses at the base of the crown. The veil is Turkish design with a hexagonal mesh, DAVID GOLDSTEIN. Lecturing before a large audience in the Town hall on Tuesday evening under the auspices of White Cross Council, No. 18, K. of C., David M. Goldstein of the Supreme Council of the Knights of Columbus said that the Catholic church holds the key to a world peace today The meeting was called to order at $ o'clock by Grand Knight Francis P. McNamara and aiter exiending a wel- come to the large audience he intro- duced Mr. Goldstein as the speaker of the evening. Mr. Goldstein dealt with the sub- Jject of peace and was as it applies to the individual, the family, the indus- trial Jife and the government relation- ships—giving the Christian _position in contrast to that held by radicals. In dealing with national and internation- al peace Mr. Goldstein said in par Bad will, denying God's law and set- ting up our own in our domestic and commercial relations, is no founda- tion for national peace. Just so long as there i= national greed, envy and jealousy just so long shali the’ clash of arms be heard and the only peace we shall have will be armed peace, with its ever increasing burden of taxation. This being so, the main- tenance of an army and a navy is a necessity today. But every time we see a regiment or a battle-ship it should be a reminder of our personal and national disobedience to the law of Christ. It is indeed an evidence of *“Man’s inhumanity to man that makes countless millions mourn.” No Peace at Price of Peace. The world will not have peace at the price of peace, and so nations are deluged with blood. It is interesting to note that those who deny the power of the church, cannot forget her claims. Ever since the outbreak of the European war, I have been fre- quently questioned as to the contra- diction between the law of the Catholic church and the acts of Catholics. They want to know how it is that the Cath- olic church says: “Thou shalt .not kill.” and yet, in the armies of the op- posing nations at war, Catholics are found killing one another? Why, as the law of the Catholic church is against killing, does not Rome put a stop to the war by calling upon the Catholics of the several nations at war to refuse to fight? Questions of this character as oft- ten show a sincere ignorance of the Jaw and the power of the church as thev do some genuine lovers of peace to Le a plain contradiction between the law of Catholics and the acts of Catholics ickly s place to a common-sense view, when the facts in the case are pointed out to them. Of course the insincere man holds the self-same perverse opinion ever after the plainest of answers. “Thou shalt not kill” is indeed the law of God. and the church is tre divine interpreter of the law. The church say “Thou shalt not kill.” But, interpreting the law. the church says that vou and T have a right to our life; that, if an enemy, out of revenge, or if & mad- man_threatens our existence, we may cut him down, and the law “Thou shalt not kill” i violated. The church teaches that the state has a right to its life: that the state has a righkt to maintain and D(‘rfe(‘t that life. If then, the state takes in bat- tle the life of an invader, the law “Thou shalt not kill” is not violated. The state may enter the territory of her enemy, making war to compel the settlement of her just claims, and the law “Thou shalt not kill” no vio- lated. So is that the interpre tion of God's law meets with the sent of right-minded men. For rests upon the principle of justic sentimentality more or les: sickly. The mind of the h is rohust. wholesome, sound. While the church says there is such a thing as a just war she knows that some day, some way, God will punish those nations that wage unjust war, for the state is morally bound to obey the law of God. Is The European War Just? Is the European war a just war? The church has no answer. = The right to answer belongs to the state. The justice of her resort to arms the state herself must determine. The church will not be tempted. It was the enemies of Christ who asked. “Shall we pay tribute to Caesar?'— tempting Him. Jast so does the en- emy question the church today. And the same answer is given that her Di- vine Founder gave nearly twenty cen- turies ago; “Render to ~ Caesar the things that are Caesar's. and to God the things that are God' Then, one thing that belongs to Caesar is obe- dience to the call of the state, for loyalty to our own colors is not alone a civil claim upon us, it is the law of the church. H Tt is the irony of fate that though the enemy professes to see in the man who gives allegience to the Pope of Rome a traitor to his_ country, the Catholic church teaches highest possi- ble order of patriotism. While the self-stvleq guardians of liberty froth at the mouth when manufacturing facts that are not so, the real facts tell the tale that Catholics are to be found amongst the bravest of the brave in all thearmies of Christen- dom. Besides, it is most interesting to note that those who have cried the loudest that a man cannot be a loyal Englishman, Frenchman, German. or American and pay tribute to the Pope, because Rome interfers with matters of state, are now insistently asking why the Pope does not interfere with matters of state and stop the war. The strict neutrality of the Holy Father throws back the insult that the church is a political machine. And the pa- triotism of Catholics should for all The Catholic Church is the Governing Power Said David Goldstein in His Lecture at Town Hall Tuesday Evening Under Auspices of Knights of Columbus. | time silence their traducers, for while they are cbedient to the Pope, in mat- ters of faith and morals, Catholics are loyally and herolcally giving up their lives at the hest of the several coun- tries at war. But, to expect the en- emy to cease questioning our patriot- ism is too much, for so long as men follow the counsels of ill-will, so long must Catholics expect to be maligned. In answer to those who .questioned his patriotism, upon his elevation to the exalted position of a Prince of _the Church, our own great Cardinal O’Connell said: “Since when a man not permitted to love both his Fath- er and his Mother? Since when a man not permitted to obey his God and his country ” The Key to World Peace. The Catholic church holds the key to a World Peace today! Just as she brings peace to the soul of the re- pentent sinner, just as she reconclles the differences between man and wife, So has she settled disputes between King and King, nation and nation. It was Boniface VIII who established Peace between France and England. It y.! Alexander VI who adjusted the ifferences between Spain and Portu- gal over their new-found Western lands. It was Clement VII who set- tled the differences between Russia and Poland over Lithuania. It was Gregory XIII who ended the war be- tween Bathory of Poland and Ivan the Terrible. It was our own Great Leo XIII who adjusted the quarrel between Hayti and San Domingo. While as late as 1885, when Bismark submitted the erman controversy with Spain over the Caroline Islands to the Vatican, an agreement was formulated which established peace and prevented war. Aye, but vesterday our Holy Father Pope Benedict XV, was selected as arbitrator of the difficulty existing be- tween Peru and Bolivia. It is most significant that those powers who have so long _ ignored Rome are sending envoys to her court, and who shall say that if England, Russia, France, Turkey, Germany and all the other nations now engaged in war, had, before the war, sent their envoys to the Vatican, that the great European slaughter now going _ on might not have been averted? Even though Rome by the rebellion of once loyal nations is limited in the exer- cise of her Divine power, yet she has done more than all the other powers put together to bring relief to those thousands of wounded soldiers of all creeds and no creed, who were lan- guishing in foreign lands. It is the good offices of our Holy Father that are bringing back the wounded soldiers to the firesides in their native lands which they love and long for. Let us hope and pray that the day is not far distant when Rome shall again be recognized as the great Papal Court of Arbitration and so avert in the fu- ture the awful slaughter that the world is a witness of today. Aye! it is Rome alone that will ever bring about the understanding necessary to an enduring peace of nations. For the Brotherhood of Man divorced from the Fatherhood of God is a mere shock. Hamlet With Hamlet Left Out. What a rebuke this war of many nations is to the pride and conceit which set up The Hague as the pur- vevor of international peace! It is Hamlet with Hamlet left out. There it stands, a magnificent building—the Peace Palace at The Hague—to mock its founders. = The money did not come by multiplying the bits donated by the poor—no, the money was rolled up mountain .high by manipulating the tariff schedules and by grinding the face of the poor. The Peace Palace is now silent. It was so filled with emntiness that there was no room for the Vicar of Christ. It meditated vain t and verily it received its re reward s not peace but the plavdits of those who deny the authority of the Pope of Rome, of those who would dethrone Religion in favor of science—not knowing that theology is the highest intellectual scier:ce of them all. The very idea of The Hague came from the church. It was a French, Catholic Monk Emeric Cruce, who some three hundred vears ago wrote out a concrete plan for a world court of arbitration. It was from the book of this monk—The New Cyneas—that Hugo Grotius, Gustavus Adolphus, our own Charles Sumner and many other leading advocates of internation- al arbitration are said to have recelv- ed their inspiration which afterwards materialized in The Hague. In his plan, the holy monk gave frst place to the Roman Pontiff, but at The Hague they would not have it so. Shall we wonder then, that this cold temple stands stark, warning the worla that Christ is the center of peace and that a rejection of His Viear is w rejection of Christ Him- self? The Price of Peace. is simple as can be; if peace in peace in our industries, and On! it we want peace in our hearts, our homes, peace in the obedience to the law of Christ. “When the Lord is my Shep- herd. I have no want. It was but yestervear that the world saw an example of national peace established in the name of our Lord Argentina and Chile had long quarrelled over their boudary line, when at length the eloquent protest of the Bishop of Argentina brought these two southern republics from the state of war to a state of peace. They finally tent to the call of Christ and entered into an agreement to end their conflicts. They melted their cannon to cast a colossal statute of our Lord. the Prince of Peace. In the heart of the Andes, on the mountain-pass be- tween Argentine and Chile, the Christ of the Andes now stands with 2 cross in His left hand and His right hand raised to bless the compact be- tween our southern neighbors. At the base of the monument there is inscrib- ed this, their mutual pledge: “Sooner shall these mountains crumble into dust. than Argentines and Chileans break the peace which at the feet of Christ the Redeemer they have sworn to_maintain.” We mav cry “peace! peace!” but ere shall be war until in_our hearts we erect the image of Christ, until in our domestic life, in our industrial life and in our governmental affairs, we rule ourselves, our homes, our business. and our nation by the prin- ciples of peace.
