Trial is a Challenge to Humanity
Received Monday, 10.25 a.m. BRISBANE, Feb. 7. If ever Australia came under Communism, some of its finest churchmen, statesmen and military leaders would meet the fate of Cardinal Mindszenty, said the | Roman Catholic Archbishop of |Brisbane, Dr. Duhig, preaching at iS't. Stephen's Cathedral. I "Cardinal Mindszenty's trial is a challenge to humanity," he said. "If, as a damnable travesty of justice, it is allowed to pass without a protest, then the Communist-con-trolled countries will be encouraged to continue their cruel war on God and religion." He added that it would also encourage the rejection by Communist countrres of all human rights which interfered with their onward march to world domination. The methods of the . Russian purge trials were in. full plgy in Communist-controlled Hungary today, said Dr. Duhig, and would have' full play wherever Communism prevailed.
