RELIGIOUS ASSOCIATIONS IN SPAIN.
REGULATING BILL PASSED.
By Telegraph.—Press Association Copyright.
Madrid, August 31. The Parliament of Spain has adopted a Bill which subjects the religious associations which have entered Spain from France recently, to the same industrial laws as have been enforced in France. The Bill also compels the members of the associations to become naturalised.
The Associations Law of France was passed in 1901, and affected 16,488 religious establishments. Of these not more than half applied for authorisation under the Act. The law required them under penalty of dissolution to be registered, and to make public their articles of association and their rules of procedure. Their real property was to be limited to " that necessary for' the object they have in view." In that year there was a great exodus of members of the associations to Spain, Belgium, tin Channel Islands, and elsewhere.
