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. I .ncoln, Neb., Aug 3.
