Hitler's Animal Morality
Philadelphia Record

Philadelphia Record,
 When any voice inside Germany dares to speak against the Fuehrer, it is news.
 It is sign that many Germans still remain inoculated in their hearts and minds against the Nazi plague. For the second time within a month, according to the Catholic International Press Agency in Bene the bishops of Cologne and Paderborn have attacked Nazi-fostered sexual immortality in Germany
 The charge that immortality is fostered by the Nazis does not come from Hitler's enemies It is mot in the category of an atrocity story M It is the avowed policy of the Naz party openly tprocaimed by Gestapo Chief Heinrich Himrnler and lpropagandized, among other places in "Das Schwarze Korps, the organ of SS Elite Guards
 A An editorial in 'Das Schwarze Korps0 says the Reich has need of children and that a woman who bears children regardless of their legitimacy is patriotic because the child when grown will serve his people,
 js Those who have the motion picture .Hiter's Children" have graphic idea of the moral stan- dards of the men who run the Nazi party who run Germany, who dominate Europe, and who lust to rule the notwithstanding us
 And the one voice which has dared to speak out through the recent years-has been the voice oi the Church, both Catholic and Protestant within Germany
 The famous pastoral letter of the Bishops of Greater Germany, read from the pulpits in July l94l, revealed the extent of the Nazi war on the d Protestant manifesto two years previous, attacking the Nazi terror.
 There have been other instances not many, but instances which stand out identifying the only voice raised against the Fuehrer inside his own do- main. As Albert Ensten pointed out two years ago
 Only the church has stood squarely across the path of Htlers campaign for suppressing the truth l Now comes this latest example of ecclesiastical courage The Bishops of Cologne and Paderborn as- sail the Naz system of forced marriage and the Nazi doctrine that "vrgnity is treason to the race And their letter adds:
 | The introduction of force into the most per sonal and delicate point of private life and of human personality would be a trampling without conscience on one of the most highly -prized ideals of 1riversa humanity
 | .5s Un-Christan naturasm is particularly threat ening for female youth today with its slogan of Al Motherhood Is Holy"
 How many clergymen are in German concentra tion camps today we do not know. But clergyman or laynlan, man woman rich or poor-we all know that he who dares utter truth in Germany todd, takes his life in his hands .s,f
 True, conditions now may be such within Ger many that the Fuehrer would not dare hazard ope, war with the Catholic Church by taking the nor mai Nazl action against these two courageou bishops. The Fuehrer. unless we err has too man, other crises to worry about without forcing new ones & But if that be true, the very fact is a healthfu sign sign of hope that before long the whole fou Nazi system and it's degenerate moral standards vii De wiped out of Germany-and the world rid of it l menace. The effect will be felt tnroughout con Eqliered Europe. fst'
