A PRIEST'S LOYALTY.
SYDNEY DEPORTATION CASE.
By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright Received May 31, 8.5 p.mSydney, May 31. It is announced that the authorities have promised a further inquiry into the Jerger case, pending deportation. It is now ascertained that .Terger's internment was the outcome of allegedly disloyal utterances. Strong protests against these utterances, including some from memberg of Jerger's own church, led the authorities to take action.
The whole incident is causing an un usually widespread revival of bitter sectarianism, combined with fervid loyal-ism.—Aus.-N Z. Cable Assn.
[During the war Father Jerger, a Romanist priest, was placed in a German internment camp. The fixing* of Jerger's deportation for a 3ate early in June lias revived the case, and has led to strong protests from Catholic societies and representations to the Federal authorities not to carry the deportation into effect.]
