Under his direction the Boys* Work of the Knights of Columbus made rapid advance. For five years he traveled throughout the United States and Canada carrying into hundreds of cities his message telling the importance of leisure time guidance of boys. In 1026 he was made Director of Catholic Scouting Department* of the Boy Scouts of America and constantly served in an advisory -capacity to this organization as well as to the Boys’ Club Federation, Big Brother Movement, Playground and Rec reational Association and other or ganizations working with boys. In June 192G on the occasion of the graduation of the first Boy Gui dance Class he was awarded the degree of Doctor of Laws by the University of Notre Dame. He was a charter member of the State Conference of Backward and De linquent Children and was appoint ed by the Governor General of Can ada as an Honorary Commissioner of the Canadian General Council ©f the Boy Scouts Association. Broth er Barnabas was universally recog nized as one of the outstanding au thorities in his field and his loss will be keenly felt. Brother Barnabas had done con siderable writing for periodicals, op. the subject of boy welfare, which engrossed virtually all his active life. In recent months he had been writing a regular weekly article for boys which was provided to the Catholic press of the country through the N. C. W. C. News Ser vice and which attained wide spread popularity. Archbishop Curley Is Honored at Washington (Continued from Page 1) the United States, the Cuban Am bassador to the United States, the Ministers from Poland, the Minis ters from the Dominican Republic and the Secretary of the German Embassy. The Catholic people of the United States have never asked favors of the nation, a state or a city,‘said His Grace, and they are fully cog nizant of their duties. Their loyal ty to the United States, he added, has been written on the pages of Irstory in their blood. ”We are not unmindful." he con tinued, “tint in this nation there exists a great deal of prejudice and a great deal of ignorance of things Catholic. We are not unmindful that bigotry has been used in the past to swerve men in the per formance of their duties. We know also that men have ridden into high office on the waves of bigotry and prejudice. ‘The American people Are fair- nvnded. If they do not know the attitude of the Catholic Church on any question, they are willing to learn ... I feel that I am not exaggerating when I say that the great bulk of the 120,000,000 people of the United States are willing to give the 20,000,000 Catholics f^ir play and justice, if they only un derstood." Referring then to the appeal made earlier in the day by Presi dent Hoover for respect for and obedience to the law, Archbishop Curley regretted that it was neces sary for the Chief Executive to paint a picture that reflected no credit on a large part of the popu lation. Addressing himself to the President in the spirit of utmost helpfulness, His Grace declared that the Catholic Church in Amer ica, by its teaching of respect for authority, respect for the sanctity of the home, respect for law, is rendering the greatest possible service in keeping the Republic true, to the principles of its foun ders. He emphasized the fact that “our love of America is not a mere passing feeling, drawn forth at some critical moment, but a con stant sen$* of our duty and re spect for authority in peace and war." “The nation," he continued, “will find us in the future doing as in the past, doing our duty at the same old stand, serving our God and ever ready to serve our coun try.” “We were .not sent,” he added, after reviewing the work accom plished by the clergy and laity of his See during the last seven and a half years, “to enter the sphere of politics, to interfere with city politics, to tell Senators and Con gressmen what to do. We were sent to do the work of God, and to mind our own business.” In doing “our own work,” said His Grace, “we are doing the great est work that can be done," and are “rendering to America a finer service than that of those who have stepped out of their pulpits into the arena of politics, to forget the charity of Jesus Christ.” His Grace said that when he came to undertake his labors in the Archdiocese of Baltimore, he came to a fine people, a fine laity, and to “a noble tradition of one of America's greatest men—the un forgettable James Cardinal Gib bons."
