The Hark of Potor is passipg over troubled soaa war times prised that she is buffeted by heavy waves The Catholic Church is the only International power remaining unbroken by conflict or nations and

assail the Church on account of local is sues if they are thoughtful men would not willingly disappear this last organic of brotherhood of man The ac cusations which have been circu lated In Canada against the Cath olic Church have reference chief ly to the position and the lude of His Pope Poaltlon of tho The Pope is necessarily neutral in this war He is in Justice obliged to be Impartial Catho lics patriotic in their re spective countries Tho war has made this clear Whether right or wrong in Judgment they convinced of the justice of their respective countries cause whether French or German If the publicly condemned either group of belligerents at the outbreak of war or at any stage of it he would thereby place many millions of Catholics in agonizing necessity of choosing between heir Church and their Country and he would favor one section of the Church at the ex pense of another The war would go on in any case Civil war would add to its horrors for all countries are divided in re ligion and the remedy would only increase the disease Besides a public condemnation would in volve a judicial investigation and this is practically impossible in war times Tho Pope has publicly condemned particular acts of cruelty and injustice like the invasion of Belgium but as to the war in general he is strict ly neutral One proof of his im partiality is tho fact that ho is abused by daily newspapers and prominent individuals of both sides I need not cite instances on the side of the Allies Most people have seen or heard accusa tions to the effect that the Pope is proGorman that he is re sponsible for liie defeat of the Italian Army etc A neutral Power which tries to lessen the horrors of war is al ways likely to be- so treated by representatives of opposing bel ligerents but the Governments of these belligerent nations evi denced their confidence in the Popes by accepting him as mediator in negotiations resulting in notable improvement in the condition of many pris oners

safeguard the unity of Hie Church as far as he can Church is not an Italian institution It is Catholic The outlook of daily life at the Vatican is world wide In Italian Government circles the outlook is intensely national The cosmopolitan and the national points of view some times clash The Italian Govern ment assumes that freedom of the Pope in administration of the Church is a purely Italian matter and that guarantees sanctioned by the Parliament of Italy to that effect sufficient The Pope acts on tho assump tion that this is an international affair and that what one Italian Parliament guarantees another may refuse guarantee This is a fundamental difficulty be tween the Holy and King dom of Italy and accounts for much that is offensive to Ottawa March Striking reforms amounting in some in stances to reorganization are taking place in the Militia De partment under the regime of Major General Mewburn Evi dently the whole machinery of the department is being passed under and radical action has already been taken in three branches In the records branch hero at Ottawa tho services of no less than clerks have recently been dispensed with Two months ago the staff numbered more than It is now be low and there is shortly to further reduction of Simplified efficiency methods and the elimination of patronage have permitted this striking re organization In the separation allowance branch a similar reorganization is in process Tabulating are replacing pat ronage appointees who under the Old regime could not be fired The magnitude of the work in this branch can be gauged whore it is staled that separation al lowance payments amount to about a month The whole field is under scrutiny Perhaps he most radical step in Militia Department adminis tration since the beginning the war is that involved in the an nouncement that from up lo soldiers who have been in are to be demobilized between now and June 1st These are all men of course physically unfit for active service Some of them have been in for one two and three years but have never been at the front Others have been held indefinitely in England after becoming casualties through vice About will arrive during the next three or four weeks The principle laid down that men not- to he kept on the pay unless usefully engaged and the invalided men are not to be kept in indefinitely is being rigidly adhered to Long- term cases which can be moved to Canada are being brought here for treatment until ready for dis charge If men are not able lo fight and are not really needed for work in some branch of the noncombatant service they must come homo and reenter civilian life A similar weeding out pro cess is taking place in the home organization Smith Grand in Richardson fell her Thompson visited in
