Protest Against Course of French o
eminent.
The note of the Vatican to all the
papal representatives abroad, protest
ng against the course of France, aft
er asserting that the rights of religion
have been outraged by the French gov
ernment's action in preventing the
head of the church from communicat-
ing with the French hierarchy and by
he expulsion of Mgr. M%ontagnini, sec
.retary of the Papal Nunciature at
Paris, says:
THE representatives of the Holy
See abroad have also received a cir
cular in which are set forth b mo-
lives for the action of the Vatican
regarding the application OF the
church and state law of 1905. These
motives are so grave that it is evil
IDENTIFY impossible to accuse the Holy
See of intransigence or OF unjust hos
tility to the French government in con-
lemning the cultural association
which ~disregards the essential rights
the church derived from her constitu-
ion, such as maintaining an eccle'
siastical hierarchy established by her
divine founder as the basis Of the or
ganization of the church.
I'm fact, the law conferred on the
| cultural associations rights which not
only belong exclusively to the ecclesl
astfcal authorities in the place of wor-
ship and in possessing and admin
istering ecclesiastical property, but the
anne associations were rendered mde
pendent of the hierarchy and instead
we're placed under the jurisdiction o.
he lay authorities. The pontiff coulc
not approve of such associations with
out being lax in his duty as head o
he church and without trampllnl
upon the Fundamental domestic prin
eiples of the church.
1.-THE same can be said of M. BRAND
,ircular. The Holy See could not ad
nit the unjust and intolerable cond
ions which the circular imposed upol
he clergy in the exercise of thel
1uties.
"All this evidently shows that tn
Holy See merely did its duty strlctl
+ n giving instructions on the subJec

sentiment it could create for tn
church in France a situation which q
