Washington, Dec. 14.- Monei-rr.orj
Francis C Kelley. president of the
Catholic Fxteris.in Society, la'd before
Yecretary Lansing to day nf*r charges
of persecution of the clergy by the,

clared, that, governor? of states are i

possible for price's and nuns to live ?
in Mex'r i.
Monsignor Kelley was accompanied i
by the Hev. Thomas V. Fhannon. edi?
tor of "The New World," a Chicago
Catholic nuhlication. After their con-,
feme? With the .Secretary tliey el
pressed confidence that the State De?

The Church had no persons! aninos
Ity ?oward Carr?ala, Monsignor Kel
v.d, but ?ras anxious to learn
whether or not the Fir?! Chief was sbl*
to control his governor? and prevent
the promulgation of unjust decrees.
In a recent conversation with El?seo.
Arredondo, since appointed Ambassa?
dor from Mexico, Dr. Shannon said he .
vi? assured that Carranza desired onh
to enforce the laws again?? politici?
activity by th? clergy and to insure
freedom of religion? -orship.
Mons?gT.oi Re|!ey ??aid that reports

?hawed thnt in Yucatan priests were

Mexieo pnests were forbidden to o**n

Mrs. A. N. Meyer Interrupts Ad?
dress to National Security
League.
Several hundred people met in the
ballroom of the Hotel Astor yesterday
rnoon under the auspices of the
mal Security League to consider
? he national de'ence.
J..-?f'Pii H. ( h ou. te presided. ?Ither
9. S.anwood Menken,
nu-dent of the league; ex-Senator La?
fayette Young, of Iowa; ex-Secretary of
lia' Henry I-. Stimson and ex-State
Senator J. Mayhow Waiaurright.
A reoolutios offered by Mr. Stimson
approving the administration's policy
' of preparednei-s and recommending
'bat the views of naval and military
experts be followed was adopted.
El Senator Young attacked hyphen
StOS, "We have t'.fty-seven varietie? of
American citizens," lie 3aid, "and every
one has his own ideas of preparedness.
We have men who came to this country
who are affianced to the _odde.JS of
Liberty, but who left a real soul mate
on the ether side,
"Some too. are so anxious for peace
if Villa should try to invade us
from Mexico they would try to pray
liini out of the job. I do not want per
to introduce war into the 1'nited
State? by a system of espionage and
not be able to send anything more than
a perfumed note. The nations of the
'....lid don't un ?erstand any language
but that spoken by the red tonguo of
flame from the cannon's mouth, despite
all that .lar.e Addams and Mr. Bryan
can nay.
"I'd rather be free If not as efficient
ns 'oim countries are."
"Why not be free and efficient at the
rame time?" xnnpned Mr?. Annie Nath?
an Meyer, of 7f?5 Madison Avenue, who
says ??lie i? of American stock as far
back a? the seventeenth century. "We're
; -??.? r going to get anywhere with thi?
ipread-eaglelsm.
"That's why I've aiway? wanted the
ladies to vote," replied the speaker.
"They alwajs know so much more than
the men. I've always been in faror of
woman suffrage."
"I'm a gTen? anti-suffragist, so don't
I drag that in," was Mrs. Meyer'? re- <
joinder.
"I believe," resumed th? ex-Senstor.
"in fastening your heart on the aid
C. S. A. and forgetting everything oNr.
And ?rfaen :? citizen dossal itand bj I
United States there isn't a StOOl
. ii. with a hide large enougr
make a boot great enough, to fit a fee!
hard enough to kick that man far
enough."
Mr. Choate rose. "All who are in
fever of Senator Young's doctrine say
'aye.' "
A thunder of "Ayes" mingled with
cheers was the response.

?ond. we believe that, in taking
action, the Hoard of Missions e_t
ceede?! Its powers and disregarded the
will of the Church a expressed bv tha

and also that it especially disregarded
the judgment of the House of Bishops.
"Third, the action of thu board was
partisan In character and was. there

The board should be the agency of the
whole church, not of a par?.
"Fourth, the action of the hoard in
committing us to a congress which rep?
resents only one side sf the -?.orld is
contrary to the Spirit of Christian
unity In ;. larger and more world-wide
