Catholic Mission Contributions

THE Catholic association for the propagation of the faith of that church gave to poor dioceses in the United States $41,000, but received from this country only $52,000, $11,000 being the aggregate that the 10,000,000 of Catholics in the United States paid last year for foreign missions. France contributed $800,000. Two dioceses in Europe—Metz and Strasburg—gave $52,000, as much as the entire amount given by the Catholics in this country. It appears that American Catholics are not very generous.
