BRITISH CATHOLICS
ASSURANCE OF LOVAL SERVICE DENUNCIATION OF NAZI CRIMINALITY. ATTEMPT TO EXTIRPATE CHRISTIANITY. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 11.45 a.m.) RUGBY, September 13. A statement issued on behalf of the Council of Catholic Unioh in Britain assures the Government of unqualified support in the War it is Waging in defence of the principles of natural justice and Christian morality. “In this struggle (the statement declares) we are certain that the King’s Catholic subjects will worthily play their part. We have no hatred for the German people, who have been long kept deliberately in ignorance, but we feel that the policy of their rulers in pursuing rapacious aims by violence and mendacity must be resisted to the end by all who believe in the undying implications of the laws of God. Further We Would express our deepest sympathy for the people of Christian Poland, who, despite the greatest geographical disadvantage, are so gallantly resisting the criminal onslaught of a mighty power, Whose leaders are animated by the bitterest anti-Chris-tian hatred and Whose set determination is to extirpate Christianity in the minds of the young.”
