AND A "FAIR-MINDED MINISTER"

Roman

Cardinal Bourne, Catholic Archbishop of West- minster, delicated and blessed the St. Bernard's Catholic Central School in Baker-street, E. "I should like to bear testimony," he Baid, "to the fair-minded action of the Board of Education under its present President. No one has: ever acted more fairly towards the non-provided schools than Lord Eustace Percy, and I regret very much that there is undue criticism of the action of the Board.

"In removing schools from the black list the Catholic Church in proportion to ita means has done more than any other community, not excluding the local education authorities, with the public pursa at their disposal.

"The Hadow report is good inj parts, but there are many things in it extremely debatable, and I hope that no attempt will be made to carry the whole of it into effect until it has been considered by all those who have the right to ex- press their opinion upon it.

"Personally I say frankly I am favourable to the selective central school. With regard to the non- selective central school I am not so sure."
