The Pope, in an Encyclical denouncing atheism and Communism, emphasises the danger to which Communism exposes nations. His Holiness specially refers to Mexico, Spain and Russia. He urges, as remedies, a detachment from worldly goods, and the exercise of Christian charity and justice, especially on the part of employers and the wealthy in recognising the right of workers to adequate remuneration.
