Show T A GOOD SUGGESTION, INDEED. Commenting on the question of need i of a Catholic Truth society, the Church Progress suggests the following: ' '"Several Catholic papers have urged the necessity of a Catholic Truth society, so-ciety, to correct the current and ever recurring misstatements and misrepresentations misrepre-sentations of Catholic events. To wait for the endowment of such a society by private munificence or public subscription sub-scription would be to suffer truth to bear injury. The Catholic press itself should constitute such a society. We believe that we could unite under the j ciotto, 'In necessities, unity; in some j things, belligerency: in all things, ! charity.' " j After all, what better machinery for " the dissemination of Catholic truth can be devised than the organism of the Catholic press now existing? Indeed, from many points of view nothing is, ' or can be comparable to the Catholic : press. Misrepresentations so frequently : j arising must be met at once if they are to die a-bornin. As the Church Progress well indicates, indi-cates, a greater unity of purpose among Catholic papers would result in infinite in-finite good to the Church. No Catholic Truth society could ever hope to rival the united Catholic press in the dissemination dis-semination of doctrine, or in a correct presentation, of Catholic truths to the American people. What is needed, is unity of action. |
