ROBS af M is the first mayer in this territory to our knowledge who has complied with the President's: request for a voluntary com. mittee tb publicise the forthcoming Na- tional Unemployment Census which is to be effected by voluntary registration on the part of the unemployed. In 16,000 cities and villages throughout the country mayors are requested to name committees to collaborate with postmasters and give whatever assistance is necessary to assure a complete and accurate registra- tion of the unemployed. The committees are asked to provide publicity, furnish speakers and generally promote the idea among all classes of the population that prompt regis- tration of the unemployed will be to the best interests of the unemployed in- dividually. ® The census is to be taken with the co- operation of the postoffices. A card to be filled in and returned to the postoffice will be delivered to every dwelling on November 16, Completed cards must be filled in and mailed by midnight November 20. No post- age is required. Only persons who are \out of work, able to work and want work\ are requested to fill in the eards. They may be ignored by all other persohs. All persons employed on WPA, CCC, NYA or local emergency relief projects should consider themselves unem- ployed and register. Where more than one card is needed in a single family, additional cards may be obtained from the postman or at the postoffice. While thei~ has been much criticism of this method of taking the census, obviously the more co-operation it receives from local authorities the more complete it will be. The action of Mayor Ross in appointing a committee to publicise the census is com- mendable and should be fellowed by mayors in other communities. More complete data on the census will be found in the article in other columns on this page. Concern For The Pope ISPATCHES from the Vatican indicate the condition of Pope Pius XI is grave. While he has rallied from a serious illness of a year ago and continues to carry on his work, the Pope has passed his eightieth birthday in kuch a weakened physical condition all hope that he will be spared more than a brief time has been abandoned. Pope. Pius realizes his own condition and might prolong his life temporarily by retiring or living a much more inactive ex- istence. The Pope has always been a man of great physical vigor, however, and has expressed a preference for dying in the harness. It is regrettable that his last days have been saddened by the schism in the Church in Spain and difficulties with the political authorities of Germany and Mexico. Pope Pius has provided a virile leader- ship for his people and has had a more suc- ceasful reign in many respects than any of his recent predecessors. But It was his misfortune to command the Holy See dur- ing a period of great political and economic unrest throughout the world. It has been a generation when many of the old ideas and traditions of society are being regarded lightly or abandoned for something new. This has placed tremendous responsi- bility upon the Pope, who had to choose where to bow to the times and where to stand firm for the traditions of the past. His problem has been similar to that of the leaders of all religious groups, which are attempting to make Christianity a living force in the lives of the people. The Church is no different from any other movement which may be so reactionary it is wholly discredited or become so liberal it ceases to serve as a rock and standard for human conduct, A Sad Bereavement THE Review-Star offers its deepest sym- pathy to the parents and family of Leonard Francis Casasss, the former Free- port high school athlete who died at South Bend, Ind., Saturday after a brief Hiness: Leonard Casassa was an unusually lik» able young man.

It would be a convocation of de- fested ambitions, of personages who once dominated sectional politics and whose names are still associated with popular mistrust and, what is worse, derision. What will the convention expect to ac- complish? What could it agree upon? Upon what common ground would these politi- cians meet, and what sort of a dectaration would they make to cause the people of the country to pause and reflect? To judge by what they have done and said in the past the answer to these ques- tions is: Nothing. Let It be agreed that it is unfortunate that the party of opposition at the present time is in such a position. A party of op- position is badly needed. The Republican party has not found its spokesmen, and the men who inevitably would be assembled in any conference now wouldn't know what to do or say If they got together.- Chicago Daily Tribune.
