We can neither number our dead nor
compute the measure of our ruins
Occupied provinces are not conquered

vader is no lawful authority. There.
fore, in soul and in conscience you
owe it neither respect, attachment nor
obedience"
Later, in protesting against the de-
portation of the Bclgians for forced
labor, he threatened Germany WIN
'the reprobation of the civilized
world, the judgment of history and
the chastisement of God"
Fifteen thousand copies OF the cav.
dinals letter were seized and do
stroyed the printer was arrested and
fined and the brave priest was kept
prisoner in his palace BY order Of
General Won Kissing until a retrsc
ton of the pastoral had been signed
