This speech, created by the members of the Catholic American Pilgrimage of 1906, addresses Pope Pius X, and speaks about the state of the Catholic Church in the United States. Noting the large increase in the number of Catholics since the inception of the church in the United States, the group also speaks of the religious freedom present in the nation, and quotes Theodore Roosevelt’s support of both Catholic and Protestant presidents.
