CHURCH AND STATE
CATENIAH BANQUET INCIDENT Press Association--By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, April 26. The ‘Daily Express’ states: “Tho Lord Mayor's action in respect to the Catenian banquet has raised a storm of controversy. The Catenians themselves are divided. Some declare tfiat they whole-heartedly agree with the Lord Mayor." Canon Hewlett (Administrator of Westminster Cathedral), on the other hand, says: “ The toast is simply the historic toast of church and State. As Catholics in Britain, we cannot recognise the Church of England. It has been the custom for two generations to name the Pope with the Sovereign, which .does not imply disloyalty —indeed, it means redoubled loyalty by coupling it with our spiritual obedience to tho Pope.” The founder of the Royal Society of St. George pays a tribute to the Lord Mayor as being most liberal-minded, and supports his action entirely. He adds: “I would not attend anywhere where the Pope’s name precedes that of the King. - ’ —A. and N.Z. Cable.
