Cornerstone Laid For First
Unit of New U. of Detroit
(By N. C. W. G. News Service.)
Detroit.—The Rt. .Rev. Michael J.
Gallagher, Bishop of Detroit, on May
30, laid the cornerstone of the facul
ty building, the first unit of the
Dew University of Detroit to be es
tablished on a 62-acre campus at
Livernois avenue and Palmer boule
vard here. The group of buildings
to be erected on this site will total
510,000,000 in cost.
Harry' E. Hull, United States com
missioner of Immigration and for
mer representative in Congress from
Iowa, delivered the address. He
traced the history of organized ed
ucation and found the cause of its
failure in Persia, Greece and Rome
its neglect of the development of
character through religious and mor
al training.
“In laying the cornerstone of this
new university building,’’ he said,
“we should consider it not merely
as the beginning of a structure of
metal, stone and other materials,
but as a continuation of all that de
voted educators of all times have
stood for and worked for, and es
pecially as a continuation, and not
a rebirth, of the hopes of the So
ciety of Jesus and the sponsors of
the University of Detroit. More
than that, this cornerstone is sym
bolical of physical, mental, moral
and spiritual growth on the part of
those who will enter its doors in
the years to come and who, upon
leaving, will carry with them the
riches which moth and rust cannot
corrupt, and Of which no one can
rob them.”

Catholic College the Ideal Says
University of Illinois Chaplain
Rev. Ur. John A. O’Brien
Gives Reasons Why No
Other Is Good Substitute.
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
Champaign.—“There can he no
substitute for the Catholic college,”
declared the Rev. Dr. John A.
O’Brien, chaplain of the Catholic
students at the University of Illi
nois, in addressing the student body
in observance of Catholic education
week.
“It. must be borne ever in mind
that the ideal place for the Catholic
student is in the Catholic college.
The atmosphere of the Catholic col
lege permeated with Catholic thought
and sentiment, enveloping every
subject in the curriculum with its
benign influence, renders that insti
tution the unquestioned Catholic
ideal.
‘•Moreover the teaching of the va
rious secular subjects 'by priests,
brothers and religious renders pos-,
sible that splendid coordination of
subject matter, whereby all the nat
ural sciences are made to reflect
the directive intelligence of Al
mighty God, and literature and the
arts are made to manifest the
beauty and loveableness of the Cre
ator. God is therefore brought into
every lwanch of the curriculum, vi
talizing and -vivifying it with the
unifying influence which comes from
the consciousness that He is the
Creator of the universe and the Au
thor of its laws.
“By making .every subject in the
curriculum a vehicle for some great
religious truth there is avoided that
chasm which otherwise is apt to
yawn between the courses in relig
ion and those in the secular arts
and sciences. In the Catholic col
lege religion is exalted to its proper
dignity as the dominant element in
the entire curriculum, and as the
subject most deserving of earnest
study because of its implications in
the whole field of human life.
“The Catholic college rests upon a
solid foundation because it rests
upon the invincible truth of the ne
cessity of religious training in nny
complete system of education. That
is why in providing religious in
struction for students not enrolled
in the Catholic school—elementary,
secondary, or college—it is merely
supplementing the work of the
Catholic school, not offering a sub
stitute for it. For the full-staffed
Catholic college there can be no ade
quate substitute, and nothing can
supplant it.”

London.—Abolition of the law
which prevents a Catholic from be
coming Lord Chancellor of England
is being urged by Archbishop Keat
ing of Liverpool.
The Catholic Relief Bill introduced
in the House of Commons last week
by Dennis Herbert does not seek
the removal of this ban. because the
promoters of the Bill wish it be en
tirely non-controvarsal.
Archbishop Keating thinks, how
ever. that the law should be altered
so that Catholics shall he on the on
the same footing as other citizens.
On the other hand he agrees with a
proviso in the Bill insuring that the
King of England shall be a Protes
tant.
The early Christians prayed stand
ing up Sundays, and from Easter
till Pentecost. They only bent the
knee in sign of penance and a class
of penitents came to be known as
Gcnuflectentes.

Methodist Bishop Scores
Klan to Brother Bishops
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
Washington—Bishop F. J. McCon
nell, of Pittsburgh, flayed the Ku
Klux Klan as an un-Christian orga
nization, while speaking to an ex
ecutive session of the hoard of Meth
odist Episcopal Bishops lield here.
“The whole Ku Klux Klan move-I
ment is a flat denial of-everything
that the Christian Ghuroli has here
tofore stood for,” he said. “There
has been too much pussyfooting in
regard to the IUan.”
Commenting on reports of foreign
missions, Bishop McConnell declared
that -anti-racial movements in the
United States nullify the efforts of
missionaries abroad.
“The greatest difficulty the foreign
field has is the un-Christian spirit
at home,” he declared. “There is no
use to preach equality when we vio
late the spirit of equality at home.
The negro question is agitating more
than ever before. We have to stand
against the influences that are agi
tating it and discriminating against
the colored people.”
Bishop McConnell declared that
the ontlook for the future is hopeful
but that foreign missions reports
showed that the spirit at home must
be better. s
Blood to Get Education
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
Milwaukee, Wis.—More than thirty
Marquette University medical stu
dents depend wholly or in part on
giving their blood in transfusions
lor their education. For each trans
fusion the donor receives a mini
mum fee of 825.
^“Provided the donor is in good
health.” said E. Paul Friedl, Cleve
land, O., a senior who admits his
blood is making him a doctor, “he
can give about a pint, usually the
amount needed, every two weeks
without injury to himself. One can
give his blood in the morning and
dance that night as vivaciously as
ever.”
