"Nordic Christianity" Akin

BY Radio to The Star.
BERLIN, October 25.-A distinct i'm
preston is spreading through the Ger
man hierarchy of the Roman Catholic
Church that the Vatican Is seriously
apprehensive of the trend of the So
called "Nordic Christianity of the third
Reich"
What gives this particular seriousness
was the return a few days ago OF the
Cardinal Archbishop Bertram of Bres-
lau from Rome. where he had a long
audience with Pope Plus XII. and the
fact that all Catholic churches in Ber-
lin took as their subject MY Heath
enism" for their text in last Sundays
sermon. Its proponents hail the Nor
die brand of Christianity as a new phase
of awakened Germany. Possibly the
best summary of its theories appeared
IN the Kirchenblat, church organ,
which, since the remaking of the gov
eminent. has strayed considerably out
side orthodox confines
Political doctrinarians briefly sum-
marize its principal tenets as follows:
/. Mankind cannot accept salvation
from a divine being because it Is i'm
possible for any being to be higher than
the Nordic man.
2 The Nordic God is mans own soul
within himself.
3. Sin. according to its theological
meaning, is merely inferiority complex
for. while the Nordic may make mis-
takes, his soul cannot sin.
The chief proponents Of the new
theology are DR.. Won Leers, one Of the
leading anti-semitic writers. and Prof
Bergman, another writer To the ave-
rage layman the tenets resemble those
of Moscow. with the Nordic soul sub
stituted for Communist party.

flowing from an open jet.

BERLIN, October 25.-The Nazi
campaign for votes in the all-important
November IL plebiscite was thrown into

his personal campaign in a speech that

Pamphlets and handbills were scat

will to peace and calling on the elector-
ate for an overwhelming vote in sup
port of the Reich's foreign policy.
As in the days before his seizure OF
power, Hitler is relying chiefly on his
personal magnetism to win support for
his ideas in the national elections.
But, as demonstrated in his fiery ad-
dress at the Sportpalast, he is bringing
home to the nation with renewed en-
phasis the administrations demand for
equality with other nations.
This was the demand placed in the
forefront when DR.. Paul Goebbels, min
lister of propaganda. inaugurated the
drive for votes several days ago.
Permit Only Campaign Meetings.
Nazi propaganda apparatus has so
completely usurped all available halls

civil SERVICE LIST
IS BEING REVIEWED
Commission Seeks to Weed
Out Those Who Quit
Seeking Positions.

The Civil Service Commission has
started circularizing all persons on its
Unemployment registers in a move to
bring these lists up to date by wedding
out those who no longer seek positions.
The commission also seeks to ascertain
definitely just what salaries others will
accept and what kind of work they will
take for which the commission regards
them as qualified.
This step was decided upon because
many job seekers have failed to notify
the commission after finding employ
ment in private industry or non-civil
service establishments, while others, car
ried perhaps on registers for several
classes of work, may have now their
choice OF one or two or perhaps place
certain salary limitations for accepting
post.
These Unemployment registers are
made up Of persons furloughed or dis
missed in the retrenchment program,
and the survey will give a better idea
than prevails at present of the extent
to which this class has been taken back
IN Government service.
What is believed to be an accurate
estimate puts the Unemployment In
Washington either In old-line agencies
or new emergency establishments at
LOO, which includes l13 in the past
four weeks. The unemployment still
existing mere as result of economy
separations, however, lists about 5000
persons exclusive of some $50 dropped
under the marital status law, and who
customarily would be the last to be
re-employed These registers, how
ever, contain several hundred persons
dropped from field positions in recent
weeks-prohibition agents for example.
Some immigration and naturalization
service workers. weeded out In reor-
ganization, are also included.
While the Unemployment has GOV.
cred wide range, it has centered prin.
cipally in the clerical and stenographic
classes. Right now. too, there Is a de-
mand for draughtsmen and engineers
because OF the public works program.
The commission is giving eligibles
from the Unemployment registers pref
erence in certificationS. 1t was said to-
day. however, that it has been found in
many instances that those persons GER
titled for the non-civil service agencies
are being rejected because for many
years they have not been actively pur-
suing the sort OF work which they now
seek
