make easier his way of economic ad
justments.”
Speaking, at graduation exercises at
Mount St. Mary's Academy, Hookset,
while Manchester was acclaiming his
conciliation feat. Bishop Peterson
recalled that he had taught economics
at St. John’s Seminary, Brighton,
Mass., for nine years and said he
was delighted at the success of his
first attempt to put his theories on
the subject into practice.
“At my age.” the Bishop said. “I’ve
found that if you want to accom
plish anything, you do it quickly,
quietly, do it yourself and go through
with it. I saw the people who were
concerned in the dispute as I walk
ed the street. I would stop and ask
the men questions until I came to
know their side. They had no idea
why I was so interested.”
Negotiations with the mill manage
ment. the Bishop said, were begun
May 22. He added: “There is often
too much fighting and not enough
reasoning in these controversies. I
suggested that perhaps both the man
agement and the workers had been a
bit too hasty."
The strike began when the workers,
seeking a return to the February pay
scale from which reductions of from
20 to 40 per cent have been made,
protested against the announcement
of the management that an increase
of 15 per cent would be granted be
ginning July 29. When the company
agreed at Bishop Peterson’s sugges
tion, to make the increase effective at
once, the mill was re-opened.

(Snecial to The Bulletin)
CHARLESTON, S. C.-Mrs. Robert
F. Touhey, a former president of the
Charleston Council of the National
Council of Catholic Women, was re
elected president of the City Federa
tion of Women's Clubs at the annual
meeting recently held here. Mrs. W.
Cyril O’Driscoll W'as named treas
urer.
Knighthood in the Order of St.
Gregory is a great honor, Bishop
Keyes said; it comes from the old
est dynasty in the world, a dynasty
going back to the Apostles and Our
Lord Himself, one which has more
right, from every standpoint, to cre
ate Knights than any other dynasty
in the world.
Bishop Keyes recalled Mr. Haver
ty’s efforts for the orphans, for the
Laymen’s Association, for the poor,
for his parish, and for numerous oth
er parish, local and Diocesan activi
ties, but he said that he knew only
a fraction of what Mr. Haverty had
done because Mr. Haverty never lets
his left hand know what his right
hand is doing if he can help it. He
also referred to the generous efforts
of Miss May Haverty. Mr. Haverty’s
daughter, and particularly her mag
nificent assistance to the orphans at
Washington.
Mr. Haverty received a flood of
congratulatory letters and telegrams
from every part of the country and
beyond, in his resoonse to the re
marks of Mr. Spalding and Bishop
Keyes he expressed his deep appre
ciation of the honor, and endeavor
ed to pass on to others the major
share cf the credit Bishop IJeyes.

Bishop Hafey of Raleigh
Presides at Annual Gather
ing at Washington, N.C.
WASHINGTON, N. C. — The Col
ored Catholic League of North Caro
lina has just held its annual con
vention here.
Delegates from many sections of
the state were present. The Most
Rev. W. J. Hafey, Bishop of Raleigh,
presided. Besides the Bishop there
were present 11 priests and 25 sisters.
At the business session of the con
vention the president of the league,
Raphael O’Hara, of New Bern, was
chairman and Miss M. Greene of
Wilmington was secretary. * In the
two other sessions the constitutions
were revised find adopted and reports
heard from various field agents and
state officers.
A Solemn High Mass was celebrat
ed by the Rev. Edward C. Cramer,
director general of the Colored Mis
sion Board of New York. The school
children of Mother of Mercy Church
sang. After the Mass a banquet was
held at which 400 took part. Follow
ing this another session of the
league was called. In this session the
officers for the following year were
elected and addresses delivered by
various members of the clergy and
the laity. The Bishop’s address con
cluded the session. Raleigh was the
place selected for the next Conven
tion.
The Rev. Peter Denges, of Wilson,
N. C., in address recalled that “the
league had its birth at New Bern in
August, 1931, just about two years
ago, at a get- acquainted gathering,
composed of members of St. Thomas’
Church at Wilmington and St. Jo
seph’s Church at New Bern”. “The
infant grew,” he said, “and in June,
1932, a formal and more state-wide
assemblage convened in Wilmington,
delegates from seven cities of North
Carolina being present. The mem
bers decided to christen the move
ment ‘The Colored Catholic League
of North Carolina’. This name, as
well as the fundamental principles
of the League, has the hearty ap
proval of our good Bishop. The
League has the distinction of being
the first state-wide organization of
its kind in the United States. It is
now a healthy, growing baby, cele
brating in gala style this year its
second birthday.
JUNEAU. Alaska.— Miss Mary
Louise Ncrtcn of St. Ann’s School has
won the American Legion poster de
sign contest conducted by the Legion
in the schools of this city.
“The chief aim of the League is
lay activity for the spread and pres
ervation of the Catholic - faith among
the colored people of North Caro
lina. Lay activity means that yom
the rank and file of the League,
must spread the Faith in your com
munity, preserve it in your family,
help others in your neighborhood to
be "true to it, assist new-comers to
get in touch with the local pastor
and the League headquarters, and
strive to recover the precious gift
of Faith for those so unfortunate as to
lose it. The purpose of the League,
then, can be summarized in a single
word, namely, Love; love of God,
love of God’s Church, love of one’s
fellow man. A man that loves God
will necessarily love his fellow ‘‘frian,
hence, he will promote a truly Chris
tian spirit of fellowshin. A man that
loves his neighbor will imbibe the
Apostolic spirit and spread the
knowledge of his priceless Faith to
others. A man that possesses the
Apostolic spirit will ardently love his
Church and the seven channels of
sanctification, namely, the Sacra
ments”.
