Churchmen Who Defy Hitler
Bishop von GoIen Condemns Nozi Doctrines;
His FeorIessness Byword Among Followers

The bishop was alluding to the
standard-bearer of the anti Chris
tian forces, Alfred Rosenberg.
Rosenberg. onicial NaA philosopher,
was born in Russia.
On November 8, 1888, Bishop Won
Galen came out OF a church in
Westphalia where he had been ad-
ministering confirmation. He moved
slowly through the crowds, bless
ing the people as he passed. A
police inspector, accompanied by
20 of his men, ordered the bishop
to stop. The bishop. 6 feet tall. an
impressive figure in his episcopal
robes. paused momentarily. Quietly
he told the official that never before
in his diocese had his right to do
such things been denied, and he
meant to continue.
Il forbid you!" shouted the in
'spector.
The bishop looked at the crowd,
and went calmly on his way, giving
his blessing. The inspector and his
henchmen also looked at the crowd
and decided it was wiser to leave
him alone.
Fearlessness a By-Word.
His fearlessness is a by word. He
has not hesitated to tell Hitler by
telegram or letter whenever he
violates the concordat he signed
with Rome, which is often enough.
He has gone straight to high-rank-
ing ministers to denounce the per-
secution of religion. He has described
the all-powerful Himmler and the
Gestapo as tyrants and murderers.
As early as 1886 he demonstrated
his oneness with his people in de-
Tending what he holds dear to
religion and personal freedom. In
July Of that year a great process
sion was held in Munster, as it had
been for $50 years. to commemorate
the salvation Of Munster from fire
and pestilence.
For the first time in all those
years, the procession was marred
by the hostility Of the Nazi police.
who roped of and placed under
guard that part of the Cathedral
Square through which the bishop
would pass after the ceremony.
Mounting his pulpit. Bishop Won
Galen cried out in tones that moved
his hearers to applause: IF any,
body thinks that physical force,
ropes and police measures are going
to separate me from you. or you
from me, he is making a serious
mistake"
Police Leave Him Alone.
Persuading his people to remain
peaceful, he left the cathedral and
deliberately passed across the square
in such a way as to be seen by the
crowds gathered beyond the ropes.
His courage and the salvo of cheers
that greeted him convinced the po-
lice 1t was safer to leave him alone.
His friends chuckle as they re-
call the quick -witted rebuke he once
administered to a uniformed Nazi as
he was preaching in his cathedral
against state interference with the

Congress is moving rapidly to
improve the financial condition
of enlisted men in the armed
forces and of men, hitherto de-
ferred because of dependents,
who may be called to serve.
The action of the Senate in
ordering its conferees on the serv-
icemen's pay bill to agree to $50
monthly pay for soldiers, sailors,
Marines and members of the
Coast Guard, provided in the bill
as it passed the House. was ex-
pected. The overwhelming vote
Of 58 to 20 on a motion of Senator
La Toilette, Progressive, of Wis
consin, to so instruct the Senate
conferees has settled that issue.
The Senate originally fixed the
base pay at $40.
A short time ago the Senate
passed a bill to provide family
allowances for dependents of en-
listed men in the armed forces.
The House is slated to complete
action on similar bill To-Day. AS
soon as the differences between
the two measures nave been
ironed out, the proposition will be
written into law. The private
with wife but no other depend
ents is to have a dependency al
lowancs under both House and
Senate bills.
Variations in AllOtmcntS.
In the Senate bill the total
allowance to the wife is to be
$50 month, of which $28 IS to be
contributed by the Government
and 500 is to be allotted from the
soldiers pay. The House bill orig
inally fixed the payment to the
wife at $40 a month, equally di-
vided between the Government
and the soldier. The figures were
changed in the House, however,
to conform to those in the Senate
bill. There are many other vari-
ations of the dependency f.llot-
ments. depending on how many
children an enlisted man may
have and on whether the depend
ents are other than wives and
children. In the bill as it passed
the Senate, for example, the de-
pendency allotment for a wife
and two children of an enlisted
man is s72-but the contribution
made from the mans pay remains
500, and the Government makes
up the other $50.
During the First World War
the base pay of an enlisted man
was boosted from SIS to $50 a
month. Today this base pay is
being boosted from $50 month
to $50. During that First World
War legislation was enacted i'm
mediately following the pay
raise measure to provide allow
ance and allotment payments to
dependents of enlisted men in
much the same style as at pres
ent.
The men of active service age
who have now been deferred be-
cause Of dependents constitute
the great pool from which fur
ther manpower may be drawn
for military service. 1t is esti-
mated that about IS per cent Of
the registrants classified by the
selective service system so far
have been deferred on account
Of dependency. Further, SO per
cent of the ,registrants classified
are married. The great majority,
therefore, Of the men who have
been deferred because of depend
ents are married men.

what right, the Nazi interrupted,
did an unmarried cleric. a celibate,
talk about the problems of youth and

Striking the pulpit great blow

Last November. according to a
report from Munster, the entire regi-

ster, Clemens August, Count Won
Galen, a man idolized by his native
Westphalia and respected by all
Germany.
Bishop Won Galen received in
ternational acclaim a few months
ago after the news leaked out of
Germany that he had preached
three amazingly bold" sermons
last summer denouncing Nazi prin-
ciples.
The first sermon was delivered a
few days after the heavy RAF bonn
bardment of Munster. RS an out
come OF the bishops attack, all
Roman Catholic orders In the prov
ince of Westphalia were reported
to have been dissolved and num-
Der of prominent Roman Catholics
imprisoned.
The bishops reaction was again
to denounce the Nazis. The city,
he said, had suffered first from
our opponents in war" and sec
ondly, from an inner enemy"
which spiritually was most danger
GUS" mo German citizen" he
added, has any longer any security,
and justice has come to be a thing
of the past"
Attacks Injustices.
A week later the bishop mounted
his pulpit to decry the injustices
within the country which "cried
aloud to heaven for redress" There
was. he said. no longer any law in
Germany. He believed, however,
that the resistance of Christians
was like strong anvil and that, in
the long run, all hammers would
break II the anvil were sufficiently
strong.
In outspoken terms. Bishop Won
Galen has condemned unauthorized
killings of invalids and the insane,
and Nazi racial doctrines.
People speak of blood and soil.
If these words had any significance
whatever, I more than any one
should have the right to invoke
this doctrine. for my ancestors have
been established in this country for
over 500 years. Here in this Rhinish
land we are on our own soil and
have no need Of prophets who come

try expected from our first line
of defense forces.
After the smoke Of battle has
disappeared the country will
learn about the heroism Of our
naval aviators who have shown q
degree Of energy and self
sacrifice beyond the expectation
of the most exacting COM
manders.
1t is idle to say that the battle
OF Midway will have tremendous
repercussions on the whole
strategy of this war. Enemy
losses have been such that 1t is
questionable whether they will be
in position for many months to
undertake major operations
either in the Indian Ocean or
near Australia.
There will be spite attacks, OF
course, In both zones, and the
Japs may attempt what they
will describe as a major opera
ton against the Aleutian Islands
and Alaska. But 1t is doubtful
whether anything consequential
will be accomplished by the
Japanese Navy.
Something Went Wrong.
While none of our naval OBJ
servers indicate that we have
control of the Pacific or that
Japanese defeat of Midway
brings us much closer to the end
Of the war. they do feel that we
now have at least equality in the
Pacific. AS soon as the remainder
of our carriers now building are
commissioned, we shall have
more than an advantage over the
Japs.
Despite heavy censorship which
exists in Japan the results Of the
Midway battle will soon be
known there and regardless Of
how carefully the Toxic COM
munioues may be worded, the
Nipponese will know that some
thing went wrong in the Pacific.
When the fun details of the Mid
way action are known in Nip
pom the navy, which has fed the
country with tremendous VIC
tories, will lose face.
To counteract the effect of this
1t is probable that the japanese
Army will attempt to do some
thing and the violent attacks
against the Chinese forces seem
to indicate that some victory on
the Asiatic mainland will be
offered to the japanese people
in lieu Of the brilliant naval
triumph the admirals in Toxic
had hoped to achieve this month.

The Midway battle is finished
with the defeat Of the Japanese
naval forces. but there is
strong possibility that the Jap
anese units which escaped the
blistering fire Of the American
men-of-war and planes may at
tempt other operations.
Whatever Japan undertakes in
the next few days is not likely
to be Of great strategic import
ance, for Japan's wings have been
clipped close. Her major ad-
vantage over United Nations sea
forces was in the air force. 1t
is conservatively estimated that
so per cent of her sea borne air
force has either been lost or put
out of commission for many
months.
The United States now has
superiority in aircraft carriers.
and this superiority can no longer
be overcome by the enemy. Our
construction facilities are far
greater than those Of the Japs
and the Nazis. After our Coral
Sea and Midway victories 1t does
not matter what effort the Jap
anese make, they canot catch US.
Met on Equal Footing.
Astonishment is expressed in
many military quarters at the
risks the japanese high COM
mand has taken. The Japs' easy
successes since December 7 have
had a powerful intoxicating effect
on Nipponese strategists. In
their latest exploits the Japs
relied once more on surprise in
attack and decentralization" OF
the American feet in the Pacific.
Most high ofIicials in Washing
ton are elated-but with restraint
over the victory of Admiral
Chesetr w. Nimitz's forces. When
the time comes to reveal our
losses, there is full confidence
that the country will be amazed
to learn how little we lost in this
major operation against the Japs.
Pearl Harbor has been avenged.
We were caught mapping there
and the japanese achieved
victory with their sneak attack.
In the case of Midway. however,
We measured our strength against
