Mr. Garfield, Chairman of the Commlttee on Appropriations, stated reasons why the commit- tee recommended non-concurrence, t which was that ‘um s an organi- jon exclusively of people of one flnfi- nififl:.rund o noh-Catholic woman could become a_co-operator of the institution, and the commit- tee had taken grounds that Congress ought never commit itself to the aid of exclusively a sectarian institu- tion, whether P-otestant or Catho- Mo, Fyrther' discussion followed, Mesars, Builer, Oessner and Parkef calling_attention to the imparti and salf-sacrificing labors of the Si ters of Charity during the war, who were fcund on every battle field and very hospftal pyinistering to the ts ‘of the sick snd ‘wounded, without diseriminatjon of race of color, Mr, Parkep intimated his belief that religious intolerance and pre- Judiee alone could actuate a man in ‘Wising to strike out such appropri- adion.
