THE BROOKLYN- TABLET, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER. 10, 1933 COMMENDS NEW YOUTH CONGRESS BOOK REVIEWS the world today is Communism. The splendid effort of the Legion of Decency to combat Communism In the movie as the common enemy of morality and Americanism are and Godless force extant in farther great credit to the CathoUe Church. But it is too big a Job for Catb. olics alone.

Ben- THE TABLET BUYERS' GUIDE I 1 Action Against Films With Propaganda Praised Stftrmhrr 3r4 The Legion of Decency, a lay organization of the Catholic Church "concerned with the moral issue found in the subject matter of mo tion pictures," has done much to keep the moral tone of the movies within the limit of propriety. The motion picture industry as a whole, and a majority of artists finding expression in it, have been grateful for the assistance given.

The public as a whole is also grateful. It would be calamitous for a medium of entertainment and instruction reaching more millions of people than any other, solely excepting the printed word, to be an unchecked channel of unbridled immorality. The necessity for keeping the movies within the bounds of moral decency is too obvious, -for controversy. The disastrous moral contamination of an ntlre generation could be accomplished within a single short period of relapse. Furthermore, patriotic principles could be similarly contaminated.

It is timely, therefore, that the Legion of Decency recognizes the constantly broadening moral and patriotic scope of public services it can perform. An example of new fields of pub lic protection in which it may serve Is thus describd by Archbishop John T. McNicholas, Chairman of the Episcopal Committee on Motion Pic tures: "The Legion views with grave ap prehension those efforts now being made to utilize the cinema for the spread of Ideas antagonistic not only to traditional Christian morality, but to all religion." "Films which portray concepts rooted in philosophies attacking the Christian moral order debase hu manity, and these films are an affront to right-thinking men and women." It requires no extraordinary powers of observation to know what antagonistic ideas and philosophies are meant. Any casual upon the subtle sabotage of moral and patriotic principles within the com munistic fringe of the motion picture industry makes them known. The same subversive forces which are seeking, through infiltration into the movies, to foster atheism and irreligion and indecency, are also attacking and undermining American patriotism at every opportunity.

Every persistent Investigation of moral sabotage in the movies uproots the kindred and interlocking agencies of political, social and economic sabotage. Decency and patriotism have the same enemies. The vast majority cf the films which contaminate morals and violate decencies in the movies are rooted in communistic philosophies.

Powerful Red Maneuver To Dominate Congress N.C.W.C.

Netc a Serice Poughkeepsle, N. Sept. 2 How the avowed Communists among the delegates to the second World Youth Congress Just held at Vassar College here, seized and held a dominant place in that meeting has been revealed by participants in the Congress who watched closely one of their maneuvers. The various commissions of the Congress, considering different topics, met simultaneously, so it seemed impassible for any individual to make his presence felt in all of them. However, in each commission session a group of Communists sat together and in their midst reserved a single seat.

Some time during the meeting, Raymond Guyot, Secretary of the Young Communist International, would make his appearance. At each meeting, he would go unerringly to the seat kept vacant in the midst of the Communists. Once he was seated, a delegate on one side of him would start to give him a quick resume of what had transpired up to then. As soon as was practicable, Ouyot would gain the floor and Insert the Communist viewpoint into the meeting. Having spoken, he would depart.

What anyone might have to say was unimportant to him, apparentry. "IA us drfitir then do il with O' UR want is to share lcs at Sexton's to jre aht to irive vou rteer N. Y. Pp. 214.

Even the great, the strong willed and the powerful have need of a friend and adviser. Baron Stock-mar was even more to Queen Vic toria; he was in truth as Pierre Crabites aptly calls him. her guar dian angeL When the English people were just about sated with the antics and scandalous lives of their sovereigns George the Third, the Fourth, and William the Fourth, it took the stolid Stockmar to dictate the poll cles of the Coberg princess who be came England's Queen. His influ ence went even further, for he shaped the mind and political career of the royal consort, Prince Albert, as wen. A far-seeing political pragmatist, Stockmar firmly Impressed upon the Queen and her royal consort that, if the monarchy were to be preserved, if the monarch wished to retain the hereditary loyalty of the English people, the personal char-! acter of the Sovereign must be -unimpeachable.

Thus was issued in the Victorian era, the swing toward more modesty and propriety. It was not the work of a Saint, nor of a good man with religious motives, but strange to say the outcome of the far-seeing state- man with nothing but a political motive.

Kettt Service Poughkeepsle, Jf. Sept. 2 The stand that man's loyalty to religious truth transcends his allegiance to institution or individual was repudiated by i a unanimous rote of second World Youth Congress ut held at Vassar College here. This is one of a number of striking facts coming prominently to public attention a normalcy once more settles on this community. It is notable, too, that while one Commission of the Congress urged lifting or the arms embargo so as It relates to Leftist Spain, another Commission suggested a European alliance which would in clude Soviet Russia and "all the other law-abiding European States." The Young Communists, in per spective, stood out as he best organized group among the delegates, and one that exercised a dominance far out of proportion to their number.

Many were led to comment that considerable number of those taking part in the Congress could hardly be called youths, and that there was an apparent adult con trol of the meeting. Soviet Delegate Absent Failure of the Soviet delegates to appear still remains a mystery. A Congress official announced at one session that the Soviet Embassy in Washington had given assurance that delegates had been named, and another report had it that they had started, but beyond that no one seemed to know, or at least no one said anything. "The Evening Star and Enterprise" of Poughkeepsle said editorially that the sessions of the World Youth Congress "remind us of a puppy chasing its tail whirling fu riously, arriving no place in par ticular but having a good time doing it." It was indicated that the third World Youth Congress would be held in Finland in 1940. This place was chosen.

Commission of the Congress, to which was entrusted the consideration of the religious and philosophical bases of peace, was the theater of much debate, as a few members of the Commission tried to get it to include religion and God in its dis cussions. The efforts of this mi nority were largely unavailing, the mention of religion coming almost exclusively in their speeches urging that it be discussed. Consideration of the report the Commission was to make brought still further de bate on this point, as the minority delegates again insisted that there be mention of Ood and religion in the preamble. Would Appease Church Members This latter debate was seized upon by Raymond Ouyot of the Young Communist International to try to make himself a hero. Always a dominant figure in the discussions of this and other Commissions, Guyot waited until the debate was deadlocked, and then, gaining the floor, made it very plain that he does not believe in God, but, with a show of condescension, declared that he was willing that the "church members" have a preamble that appeased them.

When the report was read, it was revealed that as far as the Commission wished to go was to say: 'On this basis both those who are motivated by belief in God as the supreme authority or by other religious convictions and those who consider the welfare of mankind to be the ultimate value can find com mon agreement." When a list of five affirmations reported by the Commission was read to the plenary session, it was intimated by the reporting officer that the first statement might be deleted. Acting upon this hint, the Congress struck it out by a unanimous vote. The portion stricken out read: "We reaffirm man's loyalty to religious or philosophical truth which comes before allegiance to any institution or individual." Commission concerned with "the political and economic organization of peace," recommended the alliance between Soviet Russia and "all the other law-abiding European States." This same group urged the lifting of the arms embargo in so far as it relates to Leftist Spain. Commission which dealt with the economic and cultural status of youth and its relation to peace," expressed what apparently was intended as a condemnation of Na tionalist Spain, although the side in the Spanish conflict was not and added this recommendation: That foor and medical aid as well a equipment such as books. pencils be sent to government Spain to enable them to carry on their cultural work." Commission reported that "the World Youth Congress Movement shall define itself as a federation of international organizations and national youth committees." "Such national committees shall be national centers of cooperation for all youth organizations in each It added.

It further recommended that the international secretariat of the Congress handle all administrative matter and that "the International secretariat or it representative travel among all countries, not only those already represented on the International of at of Stanley Baldwin to force Edward the EightH to abdicate?

Only those who have learned In the painful school of experience that mental sorrow exceeds physical suT fering, can truly grasp how Mary merits her title of Queen of Martyr. The Church ha placed a special sanction on devotion to the Seven Dolors and she never favors any thing sentimental Here is to be found a strong, deep, and manly spirituality that will grow by earn est and prayerful consideration and will reward one who sincerely seeks to penetrate these mysteries with a consoling explanation of the existence of pain and a more intense love for our Blessed Mother. For her sorrow were real, and only by meditation we sound their depths and experience an understanding sympathy for her. "Seven Swords" is splendid for reading and meditating on this subject because sound doctrine and solid Catholic devotion characterize Fr. Blunts treatment.

With mount ing intensity he pictures the plunging of each sword as Mary's capacity for suffering grew with each tor ment that she endured.

Above all he brings out con vincingly the fact that her uTer-lngs were endured because of her for pain has no purpose in itself; it is not an end. All religious practices and observances must have personal motive to save them from mere formalism, and pain too is valuable only In as far as it destroys worldly viewpoint and unites us Christ. Those of us who cannot conceive Mary drooping and complaining her sorrow, will rejoice in the pic ture here portrayed of the valiant woman who lived on when her Jesus dead and who could forget her to console those with lesser griefs One leads the dook too with the growing realization that our Lady actually loves each one of us as Christ does with a personal lave that exists entirely aside from any worth or attractiveness on our part. see the Apostles turning to her when a sense of sin might have driven them to despair. Both the subject matter and the author's style give this book a spe cial appeal and is a welcome and forceful stimulus to increased devo tion to her who is so truly the Mother of God and of men.

LOVE FOLDS ITS WINGS AND OTHER POEMS, by Sister M. Eleanore, CJS.C, PhD. Benziger Bros. Price $1.25. A volume of Sr.

Eleanore's latest poems is presented to her devoted admirers, and this collection will attract many new friends. Only a true poet can encompass the supernatural, so this author triumphs where mere versifiers have failed. She exhibits all the skill of expression backed by depth of thought and insight that makes her deserving of the title of poet. The poems are arranged in groups according to theme, each group introduced by a line you will want to check and remember. "No Length of Giving Let Our Friendship Shun" ushers in an exquisite group that glorifies the different types of tender human love.

The poem, "I Have Called You Friend" is the cry of the strong for a greater strength on which to lean, and what a wealth of understanding discernment breathes through its lines! The love of dear ones, of friendship, may meet many obstacles, but nothing is futile that will flame ultimately at God's feet. The second group deals with death, but there is no morbidness here. It is death regarded through eyes shining with eternal hopes. There is a glory and exaltation about death, for God has not de stroyed but transferred these prec ious souls to His eternal care. The lovely bit on "Sympathy" will make a special appeal to those who love our Blessed Mother.

"Youth Is a Song of Life with All Its Lines Unsung," the subject of the third group contains whimsy and profoundly stirring thought told in simple language that soar to ul timate grandeur. "Sanctuary Lamp' In four short lines provides food for deepest thought The last two groups rise to heights of spiritual beauty. The subjects are familiar and yet unusual. "The Missionary Bishop" rewarded by Him Who measures deeds, not days "The Soldier and the Nun" each fighting for victory, she triumphing for both or them; Feter in nis humiliation and triumph: it would be hard to select a favorite Appealing 10 a variety ot lasies nd moods, these poems will pro- vide many profitable and pleasant reflections, aTABLIBD IMS T.F.CROUGH&Sons ocoaroaiTiD MONUMENTS Erected in AU Cemeteries OFFICES and SALESYARDS Opposite St. Joba'a Cmtry MIDDLE VILLAGE, N.
