THE “RADIO PRIEST”
CENSURED BY THE VATICAN United t*ress ‘Kssuciation By £l(*<'ir}C Telegraph Copyright (Received September 3, 7.30 p.m.) VATICAN CITY, September 3. The “Osservatore Romano.” official organ of the Vatican in censuring ne American “Radio Priest,” FaJier Coughlin whose broadcast addresses on political questions have attracted much attention, denies that the Vatican informed the Bishop of Detroit that ; t approved of Father Coughlin’s activities. The newspaper adds: “The Holy c ? wishes to respect all liberties but also all proprieties. An orator sins against the elementary proprieties when ne attacks persons who represent the social authorities* , with the evident danger of shaming in the multitudes the respect they owe to the authorities themselves. The impropriety is all the greater when the speaker is n priest.”
