Movement Toward
Paganism Charged
Committee of American Federation of
Catholic Societies Faints Black Tie-
tare of Present-Day Society.
Kansas City. Mo , Aug 27. (I. X. S.)
That America Is rapidly drifting to
ward paganism Is the charge of the
public morals committee of the American-
federation of Catholic societies,
in Its report submitted to the six
teenth annual convention which opened
a three-day session here today.
Here is the picture of present day
society as presented by the committee:
"Right no longer rules. Justice is
fast declining, order Is upset, the fam
ily is endangered, the home is dis
rupted, virtue, public and private. Is
decadent, materialism is In the ascend
ancy, vicious propaganda run riot, and
religious Indifference dominates."
A pledge of patriotism on the part
of the 3.000.000 Catholics of the fed
eration and also an admonition to pray
for peace were given by National
President John Whalen of New York
city, in his address this morning at
the opening business session of the
convention.
Anthony Matre, national secretary
of the Federation, presented in detail
the work of the organization in the
list year. He reported that the
diocesan plan of organization to be
adopted by the federation has the in
dorsement of more than orre half of
the American bishops, three cardinals
and of the pope's delegate.

cieties will be asked during the com
ing year in bringing about a reform

City Youths Hear
Better Than Others
Washington. Aug 17. That the
country youth Is not able to hear so
well as his city brother, and that only
about one in five of the former pos
sess the auricular acuteness of the
city-bred lad. Is the opinion of offl-
Icers at the head of the marine corps
recruiting in this city. Their deduc
tions are based on the number of
country boys rejected for poor hear
ing Many persons believe that the con
tinual Jarring noises of the city have
i a tendency to dull the sensitiveness
of the nerve centers. However, this
is not borne out by the figures of the
marine corps officers, who believe that
the quiet life of the country, free from
noises, has a tendency to weaken,
through disuse, the responsive nerves
In the ear.
Scientists point to innumerable par
allels in nature where the disuse of an
organ gradually reduces Its function
ing power or eliminates it altogether.
The blind fishes in the dark pools of
Mammoth cave are a notable example.

claring that the attitude of the Unit-J

J. Frank Adams, a prominent stock
man of southern Oregon, has taken
the matter up with Governor Withy

the attention Of the authorities, points
out the fact that the ranges are now
overcrowded, that stockmen have now

cles is constantly reducing the chance
of disposing of the animals to ad
vantage. Attempt to Settle

RUSSIAN DEMOCRACY
FACES SUPREME TEST
AT MOSCOW MEETING
(Continued From Page One)
The issue is tightly drawn between
free and open democracy versus con
stricted reactionarylsm, Kerensky nev
er faced such a task as his present one
of coaxing suprort from such a group
of enemies to the sweeping democracy
he represents. Even the Maximalists
today adjudged the conference antl
revolutlonary and not representative
of the people's will. In refusing par
ticipation.
Kerensky's supporters agreed today
the supreme test of the democracy will
come In the Moscow meeting.
Sanger of Autocracy Present
'If we yield to the conservatives and
reactionaries," said one of the revolu
tionary newspapers today, "they will
deliver Russia to Nicholas or Wll
helm." Speeches of cabinet members served
to emphasize Russia's present critical
situation. Minister of Interior Proko-
povltch reported actual scarcity of
food in several provinces and dwin
dling supply even in" such cities as
Petrograd and Moscow.
Signer Taxes Are Urged
Vice Premier Nekrasoff warned that
Russia's finances were In grave shape.
Against Issuance of an average of
250.000,000 roubles ( J125.000.000 year
ly In 1914, 1915 and 1916, he reported
an average monthly Issuance by the new
government of 840,000,000 roubles
($420,000,000). Vast increases In wages
had been met.
New governmental activities con
sumed huge sums of money. Taxes
were not producing as much as ex
pected. Nekrasoff urged high taxes on
war profits as one means of raising
money.
Success of Kerensky Expected
Washington, Aug. 27. (U. P.)
Washington was puzzled because of
the mysterious reference of Premier
Kerensky before the Moscow confer
ence to a separate peace proposal
"directed against our allies." The
only explanation offered by Russian
diplomats is that the Russian pro
visional government may refer to the
Vatican's peace move.
Premier Kerensky's speech has
strengthened the belief that, with the
possible exception of minor minis
terial changes, the Kerensky regime
will remain practically intact and will
succeed In guiding Russia through her
present trials until convocation of
the constituent assembly.
A prominent Russian diplomat to
day gave the following explanation
of the significance of the Moscow
conference:
"There now remains no doubt that
the Moscow conference has proved a
success and served the purpose 'i
was Intended for. The enthusiastic
reception given Kerensky's strong
speech and the failure of the ex
tremist faction to cause any serious
disturbance or gain the ear of any
appreciable part of the population
seems to confirm belief in the im
possibility of any serious counter
revolutionary movement This applies
to any possible plans of votaries of
the old regime as well as extremists.'

GERMAN
WATCH,- SAYS FRENCH
IT, OF PEACE
Gaul Representative Speaks
in Satirical Parable of the
Condonation of Damages,
New Tork, Aug. 27. Stephen Lau
sanne, spokesman for France In
America, flatly denies the assertion
from the (Vatican that statesmen ot '.
different belligerent countries had j
suggested mutual condonation of war
damages and restoration of occupied
territories.
The Vatican declaration, amplify
ing the pope's peace appeal, was made
In a communication from the papal
secretary of state.
"The Germans have made such sug
gestions," declared Lausanne, "but
the allies, never!
"There never was British or French
or any allied statesmen who advocated
mutual condonation or damages or
restoration of territories. If you steal
my watch and I steal your watch there
can be mutual restoration and condon
ation, but. If I steal your watch and
you do not steal mine how can there
be mutual restoration? Absurdly Im
possible. "I note there Is an exception made
with regard to Belgium, concerning
condonation of war damages. There
can be no mutual restorations In which
Belgium is involved. No German ma-
I chlnery has been smashed by Belgian
, troops. No German vomen and girls
have been carried off and enslaved by
the Belgians. No German homes havo
been burned by the Belgians."
