THE BISHOP OF NANKING
The interest which the Chinese press takes In the movements" of H. E. Mgr.
Yu Pin, the Vlear Apostolic of Nanking, Is an Indica- tion of the high estimate which is held of him by his fellow-country- Men. Mgr. Yu Pln. In fact, both on account of his brillance as scholar and of His skili in admin- 'stration, is recognised both in China and abroad as one of the outstanding men of the younger generation in China- he is not yet forty years of age. His practical ability was shown by the rapidity with which he organised war re- ief work. At the Arst outbreak of hostilities he made arrangements for the assistance of the wounded both at the front and behind the lines by Catholic organisations. He established the first hospital for the wounded in Nanking, and within a very short time was res- ponsible for a corps of two hun- dred Catholic priests, brothers and students doing ambulance work on the field.

This Catholle organisation, which has its Headquarters in Hankow, is work- Ing directly in conjunction with the Chinese Red Cross, and during his brief visit to Europe, Mgg. Yu Pin hopes to arouse a good deal of in- terest in this great work for the rellef of suffering.
