Excerpt from The Church and Socialism: And Other Essays
This volume is a reprint of papers that have appeared in various publications during the past ten years. The opening chapter comprises four articles originally published in The New York Evening Mail in February and March, 1918; the second and fourth have been circulated in pamphlet form, respectively, by the Paulist Press and the Central Bureau of the Central Verein; the third was written for the Catholic Press Association and published by its constituent journals, and each of the others appeared in one of the following periodicals: The American Catholic Quarterly Review, The Catholic World, The International Journal of Ethics, The Catholic Charities Review, and America. Acknowl edgment is hereby gratefully made of the permission granted by the original publishers to reprint the papers in their present form.
Although the productions embodied in this book were written at different times and on different sub jects, it is hoped that they will be found not entirely unrelated to one another. The first six deal with important phases of the industrial problem, while the last four treat of social questions which have important industrial aspects. Upon the advice of friends the attempt is made to rescue them all from a too speedy oblivion.
