THE SITUATION AT ST. CASIMIH'S. Editor Xews-im.es: Your attitude toward the half riotous west end section of ihe city is very commendable. The tone of the press throughout has been temperate and helpful. Maybe a line or two to explain the issues will prove helpful to your readers. In the lirst place the clamor about church property being vested in the bishop is childish. As we know, every church Catholic or protectant is a temple of religion, dedicated to God. Its only purpose is to serve as a place in which to worship. The bishop holds the property in his name being, in a sense, God's representative. For every practical purpose the church belongs to the congregation th.at uses it. For legal purposes, and to preserve order, it is found more con-

The church is still God's church, a place of worship for the use of the people. In the secomrplaco, well instructed, self respecting Catholic people are not accustomed' to "demand" this or that priest. If every Catholic congregation were to "demand" Just the man it takes a fancy to, conceivably all congregations might pick on the same man and it would be a case go to the highest bidder.

M.p'.e ..f South Bend need not expend any large sympathy to the mass of South lb nd Catholics over the present trouble. The irresponsible, shouting mob that made the Sunday morning riotous with shrieks dors not represent Catholicity. It represents socialism, anarchy anything hideous you like. Let the disorderly element of the parish be brought to a sense of respeet for law. If that lenient does not 1 i U CatholK- church discipline and worship it has the alternative of remaining away from the Catholic church: but it must not interfere with the rights of those who desire to go. In tile fourth place any one who knows the kindly, gentle Father Gruza will be at a loss to understand why Warsaw is "out after" him. No better priest walks anywhere, t ne entures the large hope that given live or six years in which to work among this people there would be no Sunday morning riots to disturb the hdy peaee of the time. Finally, South Bend lias an obvious duty. Shall hoodlums scoff nt our police forte and mock the judgments of cur courts? Today the issue Is Catholic church property: tomorrow It may be a factory or a private residence. There should be no hairsplitting about whose duty it is. no weak compromises for the sake of temporary peace.

The steel business has been at a low ebb for some time, and inasmuch as it is one of the leading barometers of industrial and commercial conditions generally throughout the country this announcement comes as an indication of concrete business improvement. Since the llrst of January the steel corporation has resumed operations in some of its idle plants, and while the demand for steel does not yet amount to a great deal in itself it clearly points to a turn for the better.
