UNEASY GERMAN CROWDS
REPRESSION BY NAZISM ANTI-CHRISTIAN SWAY LONDON, May 12. The Berlin correspondent, of the Daily Telegraph says that Ilerr Hitler's May Day speech in which he warned opponents of the Nazi creed that they must bow or be broken was heard by an uncnthusiastic crowd.
The Fuhrer's speech dealt with the results of four years of dictatorship. Realisation of the deprivation of political freedom could be plainly road in the crowd's apathetic faces. Meanwhile, the anti-Christian prejudices being inculcated in German youth are regarded as an outbreak of sacrilege throughout the Roman Catholic portion of Germany.
Ilerr Hitler's attack on the churches, in which he declared the Reich would yield the education and training of youth to nobody, made a painful impression at the Vatican, as officials of the Vatican had been led to believe that Herr Hitler desired a friendly settlement, says the correspondent of the Daily Telegraph.
