Chicago, Nov. 17. The modern
social settlements of American cities
were denounced as breeding places
for socialism and anarchy by Rev.
James Curry, of New Yonc, In an ad
dress before the Catholic Missionary
congress today, Father Curry, who
labors among the poor of Cherry
Hill district, flayed the rich support
ers of the social settlements of crowd
ed city districts, declaring many of
them go among the poor as "Phar
isees and seek to excuse their own
shortcomings by their interest in the
sufferings of their brothers. The
speaker inquired if anyone had heard
of a social settlement among the rich
to teach them the sacreduess of mar
riage, and that a champagne debauch
is as bad as one on mixed ale."
