GERMAN CATHOLIC
BISHOPS PROTEST
Letter Sent to All Clergy
men Charges NaziS With
Suppression.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, June 30.-Charges that
the Roman Catholic Church in Nazi
Germany is victim of suppression
and injustice and that priests are be-
ing prosecuted were made today in a
fiery episcopal letter.
Drawn up by the German cardinal
bishops at their annual meeting at
F'ulda early in June, the letter was
sent to all Catholic clergymen. .
The document is amazingly frank
in its review of the church situation,
for the church has denied participa-
ton of the Catholic clergy in politics
since the advent. of the NaziS.
Discussing Nazi paganist plans for
new national church and faith, the
letter says:
"Christ's fount of grace cannot be
replaced by an alleged mystery Of
the Nordic blood which has conquered
the old sacramentS.'
Refuse TO Keep Silent.
Opposing Nazi anti -Semitism. the
document says the Ten Command
ments hold for the Jews as we'll as
for others.
The letter declared the bishops
would not keep silence in the face Of
such a menace as in newspapers,
magazines and pamphlets word pic
ture of the church and its servants
being publicly assailed and ridiculed,
Christ, our Savior, being Knocked. and
Gods eternal majesty being offended. "
The book of DR.. Alfred Rosenberg
philosopher dictator of the third
Reich. Myths of the Twentieth
Century" was condemned.
We cannot be silent when such a
book is filled with fragrant misrepre-
sentationS undermining faith in God
and the Christian religion and respect
for Christ's authority" the letter said.
The Nazi party's requisition on the
time of citizens is breaking up family
life and discouraging churcn-gong.
the Catholic leaders charged.
Appeal to Youths.
Minute regulations keep our Cath
olic organizations from working for
the church and the fatherland.
In many localities Catholic youth
are being prosecuted, even when 1t
does nothing else but give public
testimony to it's faith in Christ and
loyalty to church societies. for which
state protection was assured"
The statement of Baldur Won
Schirach. head Of the Nazi youth
hof \, n
uniform is neither Protestant nor
Catholic, but German" was assailed
with the assertion I'VE bishops say
religious conviction is not coat to
be worn or laid aside at convenience. .
Charges Are Disputed.
Charges that the Catholic clergy Is
pursuing political aims, the letter
said, are designed to undermine the
church's position.
The letter referred bitterly to the
treatment of Cardinal Won Faulhaber,
Archbishop of Munich, at the hands
of Nazis, asserting 'he is being
offended in the most unspeakable
manner publicly"
The letter said the church is seek
ing to cooperate with the govern
ment and closed with an admoniticn
to the faithful Catholic youth" to
cling to the banner of Christ and If
it is scorned and snatched eWay,
carry it in your heart.
And if you are kept from wearing
your badge of Christ publicly, your
life must remain a shining example
of loyalty in Christ's army"
Negotiations for a concordat be-
tween Vatican City and the govern
ment are now under way.

AUSTRIA is HOPEFUL
Suppression Of Radicals May Solve
Church Question.

VIENNA, June 80 (P).-High Aus
trian quarters said today that If, as
reports from Berlin indicate, the
radical wing of the Nazi movement
has really been squelched, there may
be q rapid solution OF the Austro-
German quarrel.
Interest here in the German situa-
ton was terrific, although on account
Of the shutting of of communication
across the border, news was meager
Authorities pointed out that If
Hitler's regime is freed from the
handicap of radicalism, the future
holds in store real peace with the
Roman Catholic elements of Germany
In that event. one of the greatest OBJ
stacles to AuStro- German peace will

veloping more and more into a wal

A former chancellor Of the Reich
and : non -Nad member OF the
Hitler government, Won Papen
evoked the ire of the Nazis by
criticism in a recent speech.
During the World War he was
military attache to the German
embassy in Washington, becoming
the center Of sensational charges
Qater quashed). Was requested to
return to Germany.
A former newspaper publisher
OF conservative tendencies, he is 81.
1t was Won Papen to whom the
monarchists leaned during the
rise Of Hitler. He was supposed
to have the backing Of Hinden-
burg. His inability to command
a ma ajority in the Reichstag, how
ever, paved the way for the ulti-
mate ascendancy Of the Nazi chief
tain to the chancellorship.
The inclusion of Won Papen in
the Hitler government was one of
the compromises which aided in
swinging the necessary majority
back Of the chancellor.

acton must become the immediate concern Of every
worker, and especially of every member Of the So
ciahst Party.
We must point out to every member Of the
Socialist Party that there to be no nndrance
or obstacles Of the Socialist leaders in their en-
deavors to establish united front with such fascist
elements as william Green and Matthew VOL
There seems to be no bar to supporting the William
Green policy of pogrom against Communists and
militants within the A. F. Of L. The last Labor
Day" issue of the New Leader" was in fact the
establishment of united front with William Green
81 Co. Did they have to refer this matter to the
Socialist International? Not at all. They went
right ahead. Did they have to refer the invitation
Of Matthew Vol, an open fascist to speak at
meeting in support Of the Austrian baricade fighting
to the Socialist International? OF course not.
Why do Green q Co. attack the Communists
in the trade unions, an attack now given support
in the Socialist leaderships rejection of the United
Front? Because the Communists and militants call
for rank and file opposition, and struggle policies
against the New Deal hunger policies of the leader
ship of the A. P. Of L. Because the Communists are
the most militant in strike leadership working for
the victory of the workers against the NR.A. and
the fascist attacks the trade unions.
Only when IT comes to evadng, to delaying and
sabotaging real united front of the Communist
and Socialist Parties in fight war, fsscsm
and hunger is it necessary to use these transparent
diplomatic msneuvers in order to try to defeat the
actual establishment of the united front
This will not change the efforts, the striving of
the Communist Party for the unity of the Socialist
and Communist Parties on the basic life-and-de
issues facing the American working class. The
Communist Party will never abandon the struggle
for the establishment Of a united working class
front And will succeed In establishing 1t despite
all the hindrance being placed in the way
But now We appeal to Socialist Party members
to stop the criminal delay, to hasten the day when
the united front will be established, to save defeats
for the workers by these dilatory, evasive and
sabotaging tactics.
The united front will be established! We must
lose no time IN realizing i'll
