? “Family life in America is breaking
down because of unemployment, poverty and insecurity,” Dr. Donald H. Tippett, pastor of the Bexley Methodist, Church at Columbus, O., told’ the Employees Fellowship of the Indianapolis Community Fund last night. More than 300 persons attended the meeting at the Athenaeum, the largest attendance in 15 years of Fellowship, officials said. The Com-
munity Fund campaign opens Monday and closes Oct. 26. .
Points to Europe
Speaking on “I'm Glad I Live in . America,” Dr. Tippett said: “Family life in Russia and Germany has broken down because of government experimentation. Now those governments see how essential family life is and are trying to back. . 3 “In America family life is breaking down, not by any Government decree or any particular philosophy, but because of unemployment, poverty and insecurity. “To prevent these factors from making greater inroads we have crime prevention work and settlement work, as carried ‘on by agencies of the Community Fund. “Let us not forget that personal liberty cannot be divorced from personal responsibility and let us continue to support those agencies which work for the good of all in a democracy such as we have.”
C. W. Jones Re-elected
~ In the annual election, Charles W. Jones, William H. Block Co. superintendent, was re-elected president of the Fellowship Division. Others re-elected include Ralph N. Phelps of the Link-Belt Co., first vice president; William J. Freaney of the Mooney-Mueller-Ward Co., second vice president, and Miss Marie tSewart of the Community Fund, re-elected secretary.

Hoosier Parole System Lauded
“INDIANA IS an example of the possibility of . developing a good parole system even where the law and the facilities are not in accord with the best modern practice,” .the book, “Parole With Honor,” states. The author, Wilbur La Roe Jr., member of the District of Coiumbia parole board, recommends that governors be divested of parole powers. The “substandard” condition of Indiana’s jails is described as being “one of the worst” in the counfry.
CONVICT OFFERS TO ‘TAKE $2000°
‘Wrong Term’ Grievance For Cash.
A prisoner in the State Reformatory has written to Governor M. Clifford Townsend offering to settle his case for a “$2000 consideration.” Attaches in the Governor's office said they will overlook the matter since the author of the letter is behind prison walls. The prisoner protested because nothing had been done to correct his sentence which he said was wrong. : “I intend to take action against the State, but before doing so I wish to allow time to campromise for the sum of $2000,” the letter stated. There will be no “compromise” and the law will not permit a prisoner to sue the State, the Clemency Board said. |

MUNDELEIN IS MOURNED HERE
Msgr. Noll Says Cardinal ‘In a Sense Belonged To Us.
His Eminence George Cardinal Mundelein “in a sense belonged to us,” the Rt. Rev. Msgr. Raymond R. Noll, vicar general of the Diocese of Indianapolis, said in an official statement issued today. Msgr. Noll spoke in the absence of the Most Rev. Joseph E. Ritter, bishop, who is in Southern Indiana on a confirmation tour. He said the bishop would cancel engagements to attend the prelate’s funeral in Chicago Friday. Recalls Association
Msgr. Noll recalled his own and the association of others in this diocese wjth Cardinal Mundelein. He said: “The death of Cardinal Mundelein brings sorrow to the people of Indiana. He in a sense belonged to us for Chicago was at one time part of the old Diocese of Vincennes and his elevation to the Cardinalate in 1924 made him the Cardinal of the Middlewest. “It was my pleasure to be in Rome when the red hat was conferred on him and to assist him a few days later in the dedication of the Knights of Columbus recreation buildings which had just’been completed. Helped With Building “It is of interest to us to recall that Cardinal Mundelsin collaborated with ‘Sister Mary Manetto, the present superior of St. Agnes Academy, Indianapolis, in the building of the large Providence High School in Chicago. “The Rev. Pr. Patrick H. Griffin, pastor of Assumption Church, Indianapolis, was in close touch with His Eminence while serving as vice president of the Catholic Church Extension Society of which the Cardinal was Chancellor. “Cardinal Mundelein was a great priest and a great American patriot. His memory will long live in the institutions of charity and education which he established in Chicago.”

Bishop Reads Posthumous Message Aimed at ‘High-Pressuring.’ CHICAGO, Oct. 3 (U. P.)—His Eminence George. Cardinal Mundelein posthumously counseled the nation to let Congress and President Roosevelt solve the problem of maintaining this country’s neutrality in the European war in“high pressuring” them with a deluge of letters and telegrams. > : The message was delivered in a nation-wide radio address by the Most Rev. Bernard H. Shiel, senior auxiliary bishop of Chicago, only 12 ‘hours after the Cardinal's death. It urged Catholics in the United States to support the President's
neutrality program. , . The Rev. Fr. Charles E. Coughlin,
| Detroit radio priest, has urged. his
listeners to petition their congressmen by letter and tlegram to vote for retention of the arms embargo. « ..I would be unfaithful to the trust he imposed in me,” Bishop Shiel said, “If I did not carry on tonight with the counsels of Cardinal Mundelein’s practical wisdom and his spiritual tolerance which he had wished me to say to his countrymen for him—his last message of loyalty to the political processes © of representative democracy. ; “What he authorized me fo say was controversial—something he would not have wanted to have said for him—except- that he felt that others had created a situation which might be mistaken to compromise the position of the Catholic clergy toward the Congress of the United States, and toward his great friend and admirer, the President of the United States. . . ” ...
The message urged Americans to accept the President’s leadership, to trust his promise to protect our youth from war, and to give him the benefit of “unsolvable” doubts. “Only in the Vatican,” it said, “js there in Europe the gift of statesman’s vision possessed by President Roosevelt.” Cardinal Mundelein died peacefully in his sleep. He was 67. His
