In the recent difficulty • respecting Italy and, the .League ori Nations, the Church was silent and of- fered no moral support to the agency of peace and Nation's League. Europe ax,rd -the world are being kept under constant' 'nerdous tension: for fear of war and nowhere and at no time is the voice of the Chu. h either Catho- lic or Protestant raised in, protest at the nets. of •,j;he so -Balled Christian statesmen who threaten the world with another ;.deluge of. blood, Be- cause ,the Church is apparently so 'powerless to guide the•councils of na- tions in paths' of peace and Christian virtue, it has lost the respect of great mesas of men who inevitably suffer so much in the event of a world ca- tastroplhe. Sir, ,the. Church must assert itself in international /affairs on behalf of the cause of peace. In our . own country:' the Church' must' not retreat from the slums. It must face the problenn of poverty. It must assume the task of ministering to the poor and needy, of breaking down the walls of indifference and apathy and in counter -acting the yile teaching of anti-Christian socialists and• athiestic agitators. My first great point then is, sir, that it is the task of the young; people to re-establish the Church in the minds and affections of men, to make it onee again the friend of the poor and needy and to increase its author- ity and influence in national and inter- national agairs. In the second place I believe no one will contend that the present so- cial order ,as one based on Christian principles. Everywhere we see such vast divergence' in wealth, suoh great difference in material comfort. As a result of the great industrial re- volution, huge titles have sprung lip on this continent and in Europe. With these large cities have come inevitably slums and congested districts. In these crowded cities, families, lenge, families, are living in one and two rooms. Many are even living in cellars in .unsanitary conditions and amidst the most filthy surrounding's. Sines the war unemployment lids been 'very prevalent; hundreds of thousands of men being out of em- ployment, the wives and children -ere compelled to- do most menial tasks in order to. gain a livelihood. The child - nen of these poor classes in the hot summer time have no piniygrounds,but the open street -with the perils of the motor cars no fresh airy no 'green grass; nothing but the enmity, murky sky above and the hot, hard pavement below. Children brought up under such conditions eannnt blossom into Christian young men and women. In other sections of our cities, we See such fine homes and palatial resi- dencee. The people ere well-fed and well -clothed. They am -well-to-do and pl'operous-a most >desirable state. 1 do not object to Men being rich and prosperous, but what I ala object 10 and ,what I believe' every Christian should dbject to is the vast differences in xnelerial comfort whieh exist in the world to -day. No man should, in a Christian eivi1ization,,be permitted to accumulate great wealth while his :fel- low men. . with their wi'vee and child. ren, ate living in sordidness end po- verty. How eana Man be expected to bring up a family, pay forty to sixty clol- lars ,a month rent, fifteen or sixteen defilers a fon for coal and high anriees ter other ixnneessitiea and receive only $20 to 525 a ,weak in wages?

But, sir, the present social order ie wrong, unethical and, unchristian; it cannot.eurvive and it. shall not survive if the young people realize their task and do it. The third gait of our grett' task is to purify our political institutions and elevate the standard of public life. On nine occasion I read in a speech of. the late John Bright, that there is no money in polities for an Honest man. In discussing that statement later with a friend, he told inn of a doctor who had been honored by his fellbw'eitieensand gent to Ottawa After five years!experience he stated that it was really to place for a man of principle. That, of course, was in the older clays; conditions have im- proved, But if there ever wasa place vrhere Honest, upright, Christian linen were required, 10 is in our Paid- iamente and Governments. A teach. or of mine onoe toldme that outside of Italy, Canada had the most ear- rupt political system of any nation. I will not Vouch for the truth of that. statement, but it is a fact that many many pages of :Canadian history aro tainted' end blackened by suoh Stets of political jobbery and corruption that the ;face of an :]'sanest Canadian should Muth to rend theme.
