Cardinal Gibbons comments on a speech that William Michael Byrne proposes to give in New York. Gibbons had discussed some of the points from the speech in his book Faith of the Fathers. He goes on to say that the church best prospers with direct interaction between clergy and laity, rather than with influence by “military satraps.”
