TO FIGHT CHURCH
Vigorous Nazi Drive In Bavaria London, March 10. A new drive against the Roman Catholic Church was the keynote of speeches at a Nazi rally to celebrate five years of Nazi rule in Bavaria, says the Munich correspondent of the “Daily Telegraph.” Herr Adolph Wagner, district leader in Bavaria, attacked Cardinal Faulhaber and declared that there could be no peace in Germany until political priests were rooted out. Herr Himmler, Reich leader of the Guard Troops, alleged that Roman Catholic leaders had plotted to separate Bavaria from the Reich, but that the Nazis forestalled them when they seized power in 1933. The Bavarian Minister of Justice, Dr. Hans Frank, declared that the fight against Roman Catholics, Jews, and other enemies of National Socialism henceforth would be carried on with increasing vigour.
