CATHOLIC PRESS
MONTH Till
Beginning an active campaign to
place "A Catholic Paper in Every
Catholic Home" the month of April
I will lie Press Month throughout Al
aska.
The drive to increase the circula
tion of the Catholic Northwest Pro
gress, official organ of the Northwest,
was recently started in every town
of the territory and splendid results
have already been submitted.
liisb.ip Oimont Praises Work
llis Lordship, Right Reverend
Bishop Crimont, has heartily endors
ed the campaign and is making every
effort toward its success. His Lord
ship recently issued a pastorial let
ter to all Catholics in Alaska, dwell
ing on the importance of this move
ment and requesting the assistance
and support of the clergy in bring
ing a Catholic newspaper to the peo
ple of the North.
Bishop Crimont laid special stress
011 the duty of each pastor to place
before his parish for consideration
the fact that never before have 'so
many important moral and religious
problems been uppermost in the
minds of the American people. That
the questions intimately concerned
with the family, the home, the sa
credness of marriage, the relation of
labor and capital, the teaching of
proper ideals concerning American
citizenship, the opposition to pagan
ideas of state control of education,
and many other all-important ques
tions, can only be solved by true
statesmanship based upon Christian
principles. una tuai 110 more power
ful instrument for leaching and pro
mulgation of Christian ideals can be
found than the Catholic press.
I'nstors Committee Chairmen
The local pastor of each parish
in the territory is the chairman for
his parish and Javworkers will form
committees to work directly under
his supervision. Loyal Catholics have
pledged tlieif assistance and the
drive will he carried into the far
northern districts, where there are
110 churches and the few inhabitants
have limited means of keeping in
touch with the Church. It is ex
pected that by the tnd of the month
every Catholic family in the terri
tory will he a subscriber to this pa
per. Beginning April S. the returns
from Alaska will be published each
week in The Progress.
Action of Officials.
The campaign is the result of ac
lion taken by the Archbishops and
Bishops of the Catholic Church, who,
in annual conference assembled, Sep
tember. 1920, voted unanimously in
favor of a resolution calling upon the
clergy and laity of the United States
to unite in a great, organized, na
tional movement 011 behalf of the
Catholic press.
The organization of this move-1
ment was left to the department of
Press and Publicity of the National
Catholic Welfare Council, which is
composed of the Hierarchy of the
Catholic Church in tlve United States
under whose leadership and inspira
tion the many and highly diversified
Catholic organizations jind forces of
the country are being nationally uni
fied.
Mrs. J. L. Sanson, wjfe of the
White Pass and Yukon Route agent
at Wliitehorse, was a passenger on
the train from the Rapids City to
day.
The train arrived about half past
twelve.
