NAZI TRIAL OF PASTOR NEAR END
LIGHT SENTENCE EXPECTED BY CHURCH (Received February 23, 6.30 p.m.) BERLIN, February 22. The trial of Dr Martin Niempller, leader of the organized campaign against “Nazification” of the churches, is expected to finish at the week-end, when the Press and the public will be admitted to hear the sentence. Church circles expect that Dr Niemoller will be sentenced to not more than seven months—probably meaning his immediate release, as he had been held in custody for that period awaiting trial—but that he will not be allowed to resume preaching.
