| 520 | 2 | |a The Anti-Catholic Literature Collection reflects something of the nature of the last widespread, violent reaction to the Catholic Church in America. The collections consists of largely undated original and photostatic copies of material circulated at the time of the 1928 campaign and includes both campaign-related items and general examples of the literature. The campaign-related items appear to date from 1928 or shortly before. The general anti-Catholic literature is of a more indeterminate date. One item is dated 1912. | |
| 545 | |a New York Governor Alfred E. Smith ran for President on the Democratic ticket in the 1928 electoral campaign. His candidacy invoked a vehement anti-Catholic reaction among some factions of the populace, and made evident the American Catholic Church's need for an improved public image. Archbishop McNicholas of Cincinnati called for a Catholic apologetic program, and began by convening a strategic brainstorming session, a National Conference on Apologetics, at the Catholic University of America in February 1929. The Democratic National Committee had collected and exhibited examples of anti-Catholic publications throughout the Smith campaign. Through the good offices of Michael Williams, editor of The Commonweal, this exhibit material was forwarded by the Committee to CUA for a display in connection with the Apologetics Conference. The material arrived in Washington rather late and was poorly exhibited; the collection then remained at Mullen Library. | ||
