ANOTHER GERMAN BISHOP ATTACKS NAZIS

Naziland's religious persecution was denounced in a remarkable sermon by Mgr. Francis Bornewasser, Bishop of Trier, who spoke of the day when the murder of men deemed " useless " or " unproductive " would cry to Heaven for vengeance.
"I preach to-day as a German Bishop," Mgr. Bornewasser said. " For many years in pastoral letters and sermons we have never ceased to
draw attention to the terrible wrongs done to the German people by the brutal. ceaseless struggle against Christ, the Church, and its institutions solemnly guaranteed by the Government.
270 PRIESTS EXPELLED
In Lorraine last year, continued the Bishop, six out of eight canons of the cathedral, 270 priests—and there were even more to-day—were expelled. The same fate befell the families in about 70 localities. They lost their goods and chattels.
With a stroke of the pen all the monasteries were suppressed and the nuns deprived of their bread and work. In Luxembourg also the monasteries had been suppressed, and the nuns, without protection, had been thrown out of their country.
In one little town 50 Dominican nuns were left stranded.
" Have the prostitutes who corrupt the souls and bodies of men and youths been expelled from that part of France occupied by the German troops? " the Bishop asked. " I have not heard of it so far."
STORM THAT HAS BECOME A TEMPEST What was a storm in Lorraine and Luxembourg had become a acv stable tempest in Western Germany. In other parrs, such as Austria and occupied Poland, it was worse.
In Cologne province 47 abbeys, convents and monasteries had been suppressed, " put under protection," as the Gestapo called it. In 25 churches or chapels the sanctuary lamp had been extinguished, and the reserved sacrament turned out.
Addressing those in exile, the Bishop said: " Even the new Germany will have need of you for its greater profit on the day when the fruits of a non-Christian education, the antiChristian education of youth, the ft uits of the practice of sterilisation, which is repugnant to natural law as divine law, will have ripened:
" It would be the day when the murder of men deemed ' useless ' of unproductive ' will cry to heaven for vengeance, when the Christian culture, hardly hit, will rise again so that the Reich can continue to exist,"
