DR. O’SHEA’S PLEA
CATHOLIC URELAND’S TASK. LEAD TO THE NATIONS. Preaching in Tuam Cathedral, Galway. the Most Rev Dr O'Shea, Archbishop of Wellington, said the world was looking to Ireland as a Catholic country to show the way, under its own Government, toward a Christian solution of the grave problems of our day. He prayed that Ireland might continue to be a land of saints and scholars and contribute to the return of the nations to sanity, light and reason. His Grace said he wanted Irish representatives for the Eucharistic Congress to be held in connection with the centenary celebrations of New Zealand in 1940. Besides representatives of the clergy, he would like to see some prominent Irish laymen go out to Wellington, because the Church in New Zealand owed much of its strength to the Irish people.
