RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION
WARSAW JEWS HERDED INTO GHETTO. CHARGES AGAINST GERMANS & RUSSIANS. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON. November 20. The Cracow correspondent of the British United Press says the Germans have ordered the confinement of the Jews of Warsaw in a barricaded area, reproducing the mediaeval ghetto. A Vatican City message says radio reports from Lemberg, which is now in Russian hands, assert that some churches have become cinemas, vestments have been distributed among actors and religious education has been forbidden. The churches which are open are allotted one priest apiece, but sentries prevent young people from entering. Many churches are alleged to have been profaned. One has been converted into a stable, and its treasures confiscated. Lemberg is a Jewish refugee centre harbouring 200.000 Hebrews. Food is scarce.
