German authorities and held a pris-

The report which has not yet been

was the result of a pastoral letter
issued by him and read On Sunday
in the churches throughout Belgium.
In this letter the cardinal is said to
have referred to the occupation or
Belgium as follows:
This power has no legal authority
and consequently you owe it in your
heart neither allegiance nor obedi-
ence. The only legal authority in
Belgium is that appertaining to our
