Surprise

The vigorous support which Catholic priests and lay groups have given the Chicago Newspaper Guild in its strike against the Herald & Examiner and American has been a matter of grave concern to pious Catholic Joseph Vincent Connolly, general manager of all Hearst-papers. Month ago he reportedly made a vain effort to present in person the Hearst case to George William Cardinal Mundelein. Last week, the American began a series of articles on "The Youth Problem" by well-loved Bishop Bernard J. Sheil, founder of the Catholic Youth Organization and ranking Chicago hierarch during Cardinal Mundelein's absence in Rome. Some Catholic friends of the Guild angrily assailed this kind of "scabbery," but a quiet word from Bishop Sheil's office stopped them. He I wrote the articles last summer, and Guildsmen were given to understand that he was surprised and pained by their publication during the strike.
