A National Conference of Catholic Charities and Society of St. Vincent de Paul BISHOP'S HOUSE 7 7 7 Pearl Denver, Colorado May I take this opportunity!, in the name of the priests and people of the Diocese of Denver, to welcome the delegated and visitors of the Annual National Convention of the Catholic Charities and of the St. Vincent de Paul Society to the “ Queen City of the Rockies?" Our local committees have been long preparing to make your visit enjoyable and we hope to gain a new incentive and many helpful suggestions for our own charity problems from the discussions of noted leaders in the field. This convention will prove an inspiration for us as we hope you will find it stimulating and helpful. Every diocese and practically every parish is called upon to meet honestly and fear­ 1 lessly the ever-mounting and staggering problem of human suffering and misery of every conceivable kind. The afflicted are our “ Brothers in Christ." The hand of Christian char­ ity must be extended to them as far as our ability and resources will permit. Governmen­ tal subsidies should not stifle individual charity. Our Christian heritage is inseparably linked with the exercise of Christian love and sympathy for those in need. • The City and Diocese of Denver extend you a cordial welcome. ^ URBAN J.
