The American investigators who visited Mexico were badly fooled Bishop Francis Clement Kelly of Oklahoma City, an authority on Mex ico, declared in a letter published recently in the Daily Oklahoma answering an article by Rev, Mr. Fox of the committe. “Is it not strange lo hear Mr. Fox condemn us on one hand for keeping the Mexican people in ignorance and on the other for violating (he law by giving them schools? ’ Bishop Kelly asks. A resolution introduced into the House of Representatives by Repre sentative John J. Boylan of New Y'ork would authorize and direct Secretary of State “if not incompat ible with the public interest to furnish to the House of Represen tatives at the earliest possible mo ment such data and information as he may have in respect to the ex pulsion from Mexico of Most Rev. George J. Caruana, a citizen of the United States, who was visiting Mex ico and who in any wav violated any of the provisions of the consti tution of that country by exercising his ministeral office.” Most Rev. Michael J. Curley, D.D, Archbishop of Baltimore, continuing his articles in the Baltimore Catholic Review, protests the latest development in Mexican persecution saying that “one would imagine that be (Archbishop Caruana) had lost his American citizenship by reason of his ecclesiastical position.” “If it were a case of one-tenth of this injustic being inflicted upon the little handful Methodists in Mexico, I have no doubt about our seeing tbe Administration extremely active to prevent the continuance of such a persecution,” Archbishop Curley de clared. “Tbe reason for the differ ence . in treatment meted out to twenty million Catholics and others is that the others protest in the only way in which a prolest reaches the intelligence of a politician.” Cleveland Papers Merge Catholic Bulletin and Catho lic Universe Combine Forces (By N.
