APPEAL TO ALLIES
From French Cardinals TO SPARE HOMES, CHURCHES AND HOSPITALS.
(Rec. 11.0) LONDON, May 14. The Cardinals of France have addressed an appeal to the Catholic clergy of the British Empire and of the United States, stating: The bontbing of France fills our hearts with sadness and anxiety. Thousands of civilians have been killed and wounded. Their homes and also their churches and hospitals have been destroyed. We ask you to intervene with your respective Governments so that the civilian population of France and of Europe may be spared as much as possible. We are convinced that, with more care, military objectives will not be confused with the humble dwellings m their neighbourhood. We believe that our towns, our works of art, and our churches in particular should be spared.
