To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Frequently, too, missionary pretenders, who get along on their appearance or on the strength of their familiarity with local church matters, have been found to abuse the serious trust implied in the acceptance of Mass stipends, and not only deceived those who had confided in their honest looks, but also created a general distrust, to the unfortunate lessening of charity where it is really needed and effective. By making the Ordinaries or the Sacred Con- gregation the distributors of Mass stipen...ds outside the diocese, another source of abuse is prevented. It is well known that as the value of money and the cost of living differ in different countries, so does the customary stipend for Masses. In the United States the usual stipend is one dollar; in Canada the Dominican Fathers have long adver- tised that they say Masses for fifty cents. In Italy and France the stipend is one franc. As the priestly function and the service of the Mass are of the same value everywhere, it follows that a priest in France whom an American asks to say a Mass, is much more benefitted than he would be by a request to say Mass from a person of his own diocese.
