Catholic churches I'm the third
Reich.
Three new DEGREES provided for
flying the hloOd-red Nazi banner
bearing the Swastika, warned against
any infringements Of this rule. and
declared failure 70 submit would
mean arrest and fines for church
officials.
Clergymen, however, insisted that
only the yellow and white emblem OF
the Vatican should BE- flown.
The nazi flag was displayed over
the Saint Hedwig Catholic cathedral
ir Berlin recently, but almost at
half-staff and only on the left pole
lof ~ trio, the other two staffs being
bare. Saint Matthias church showed
10 flag.
The issue Of the nan and papal
Tags was one of the topics discussed
between Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler
and Count Conrad Won PreystnE-
Llchteneeg-Moos, Roman Catholic
bishop of Berlin.
Despite the conclliatory efforts of
Hans Kerrl. minister for church af-
fairs, and Hitler's reported assurance
that the German faith movement
was dying. other elements OF friction
between church and state became APP
parent.
Rel-ble Protestant Confessional

bring peace. and that complete I'm
