New York, Aug. 23. Delegates of
the American Federation of Catholic-
Societies, in convention here today,
were resentful of the publicity given
attacks made upon President Wilson
and his administration in meetings of
the federation.
Too much stress has been iaid upon
the meetings of the German Catholic
organization', delegates said. It was
stated that the German organizations,
which criticised the administration
foreign policy, represent but one-fifth
cf the total membership.
After telling a mass meeting that
there were 10,000,000 Catholics in the
United States, which meant 3,000,000
voters, who could wield a tremendous
influence, James F. Zipf of St. Louis,
president of the Verein, said:
"I do not contend now for a relig
ious party. We are too big for par
tisanship, but our influence should be
cast where it best will serve the holy
principles for which we stand."
A burst of applause followed.
Re-Elect Officers.
Bishop Joseph Schrembs of Toledo,
chairman of the federation committee
on resolutions, said today that the
resolutions concerning Mexico rcpre
sented no backdown from the anti
Wilson stand taken by National Sec
retary Matrc in his report to the con
vention Monday.
Kansas City was chosen as conven
tion city for 1917.
Joseph Brennan of Boston was the
only officer who failed of re-election
The rest of the board, headed by John
Whalen of New York as president,
were re-elected.
