BAPTISM REFUSED
YUGOSLAVS AND CONCORDAT.
TWENTY-FIVE EXCOMMUNICATED TEN MEMBERS OF THE CABINET. (United Press Association —Copyright.) (Received This Day, 10.45 a.m.) BELGRADE, August 8. Ten members of the Cabinet, including M. Stoyadinovitch (the Premier) and 15 deputies, including M. Stoyadinovitch’s brother, were denounced from pulpits in Orthodox churches throughout Yugoslavia for supporting the concordat. The Ecclesiastical Courts will try them later. * Two thousand silently listened at Belgrade to the excommunicatory rollcall, but suburban congregations greeted each name with the response: “Aiay he be damned.” Pamphlets ask the populace to boycott those excommunicated. The Orthodox authorities refused to baptise the new-born son of Dr. Kalouejerchitch (Postmaster-ueneral).
