"The chief nations which want peace today are the British common wealth, the five small but free na tions of Europe and the United States. "In these countries the press is free from government control or cen sorship." He declared American journalism has served the American people dur ing the first 11 months of President Roosevelt's administration in im portant respects. COLD E OTHERS ROOSEVELT "Washington.

Murphy, which occurred Monday, January 22, at the St. Catherine hospital in Om aha, came as a shock to a large circle of sorrowing friends and relatives, as well as to the community in which f he lived. In failing health for the past few months, she had gone to Omaha for rest and medical treat ment, but she was not thought to be in any danger until the Tuesday pre ious to her death. Surrounded by her devoted family of six cons and two daughters, her brothers and winters, fortified by all the rites of the church which she loved with true devotion throughout her entire life, Mrs. Murphy passed quietly away to her eternal reward. The devotion to duty of this good mother, rose to truly heroic heights when, immolating herself upon the cross of her country's need, silently and uncomplaingly, but with break ing heat, she gave up her four sous to serve in the World War, proving once more that devotion to the Cath olic faith is Eynonymous with the highest citizenship and most exalted patriotism.
