Authority and Property Au Open Letter to the British Pilule Minister, (By Very Rev. Vincent McNabb, O.P Your unexpected return to power can hardly fail to flood you with letters from friends and foes who wish riches to float with you on the incotning tide or to withstand you to the face. If I ask you to single out this open letter from the deluge of friendly and hostile correspondence it is because the counsels it presumes to utier may be perhaps unique, It is more than likely that the letters you have received or will receive are of politiclans to you, a politician.

To the west of the west door was unearthed the foundation of a rough small. square building, surrounded by graves.

Very old foundations, to the east and south of the church, were probably the site of the original college buildings. There are other traces of ancient buildings between the inner and second sashels on the west. Carved and inscribed stones are rare. Five very early cross slabs, of which only two were perfect, have been found, probably dating from the sixth century. A considerable number of small but elaborately carved fragments have bees found of what appears to have been a massive high cross._ which at some time was deliberately smashed to Some fragments of crosses, pieces. found in the debris of the cashel wall, indicate that the cashel was built or repaired with stones from a destroyed On one stone are cut four church.

Poland --Barrier to Bolshevism of Central Europe are in the bread line along with the rest of the famine world, but, says Marie Cecile- Chomel, of the Hoover Relief Administration in an article in the "Catholic Register," Toronto, though the people are, in many cases, without homes. and are eating the bread of American charity, they have not moved one inch after the false gods of The communism. radicalism and most hopeful sign of Europe's recovery from chaos is that the people of the countries most endangered by red propaganda are holding fast to their faith, even though they have lost all They attend Mass in rags, hi else. millions-but they do attend. Catholic faith and practice have stood an uncrossable barrier to Bolshevism. "Catholic principles and American food have saved our people," bishops and priests have told the writer of the article over and over again. To suffering, hungry Poland the world owes an eternal debt of gratitude, for she stopped the anarchist peril- at the sacrifice of her own young soldiers and horrible destruction of her towns, but she stopped it, when the hordes from Russia swarmed across her borders, and thereby made the word her debtor.

Homes, country estates, towns, and cities swept ruthlessly away. In dozens of orphanages where the Catholic Sisterhoods had collected the pitiful little children there was no food save the one-meaha-dsy ration sent to them by Herbert Hoover's American Relief Administration workers. These poor, unfortunate people. after all their trials, and when the war was over for the rest of the world, had to do out and protect their country from anarchy. The same story can be told of the other new little countries (all essentially Catholic) surrounding Russia, every one of which proved a barrier to the spread of Bolshevism.

He says: "We have got our first visitation of Mass yesterday morning. snow--at You must know that we have only the canopy of Heaven for a covering whilst The Holy Sacrifice is we hear Mass. celebrated in a canvas oratory seven feet square.

"What is going to be your greatest asset in years to come?" asked the Bishop. "It is this: Above everything else you must make progress through your leaders. No one who has ever trampled on the laws of his country should be selected by you to lead the labour movement. "If you select the right kind of leaders you have a force that no power, no capital. no faction, can put down.
