Brother Barnabas in Texas To Conduct Boy Guidance Course There in June Former German Chancellor Catholic, Dies At Freiburg Freiburg, Germany—Constantin Feh- rerrback, former Chancellor of the German Republic and veteran leader of the Catholic Center party, died here at the age of 74, of pneumonia. The Centrists thus lose one of their greatest parliamentarins and spokesmen. It was in 1918 that he was chosen president of the Reichstag. Here and as president of the National Assembly, he made a brilliant rec ord as a parliamentarian in some of the most difficult times of the country. He particularly won the respect of all by his impartiality. In 1920 he became Chancellor of the Republic, just at the time the Spain conference was about to he held, when Germany met her former enemies in council for the first time after the war. Later in the same year, however, the Allies presented their ultimatum at the London con ference, and in the middle of 1921 Fehrenhach resigned, leaving the chancellorship to Dr. Wirth, also a Center leader. He continued an in fluential figure in the Reichstag, however, and when Dr. Marx became Chancelor *in 1923, assumed the leadership of the Center party. In that capacity ha- had continued to render valuahle service.
