DX ORDER OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE BOARD.
The Commonweal Editorial
The Commonweal, Cat ho Ii c
weekly, has called upon the Cath-
olics of America to boycott the
Olympiad to be held at Berlin
next year in a strongly worded
editorial which scores the tactics
of the Nazi Government. "We
summon each and every organi-
zation identified with the Church
to make it clear to its members
that participation in the approach-
ing games means endorsement of
wilful and violent persecution,"
the editorial says at one point,
and at another declares that the
official Nazi literature "is not
merely anti-Semitic and brutal
stuff, but is pagan to the core."
Avery Brundage, president of
the American Olympic Commitee,
and former president of the Am-
ateur Athletic Union, still can see
no reason for American non-par-
ticipation in the Olympics, but
Jeremiah T. Mahoney, present
head of the AAU, favors a boycott
of the Berlin games. The News,
tabloid daily with a circulation of
over 1,000,000 has come out edi-
torially in favor of the United
States "refusing to send any rep-
resentatives to the Olympic Games
next year." The AAU, however,
is in the meanwhile going ahead
with preparatiosn for the Berlin
Olympics.
