PACIFISTIC MOVEMENT
LOSING FORCE IN ENGLAND CHANGED OUTLOOK OF YOUNGER MEN [Per United Press Association.] AUCKLAND, February 12. Father Owen Francis Dudley, Superior of the Catholic Mission Society of England, who has come to attend the Catholic centenary celebrations, was a passenger on the Rangitiki. Father Dudley said that the young men of England were not so much against war as they were a few years ago. The strong pacifist movement of that period was now losing force, and the younger generation was inclined to think it would be interesting, and, perhaps, a good thing, if war came. He scathingly criticised some sections of the English upper classes,_ saying that they lived a parasitical life. The useful people in the world, he said, were those who worked.
