CHURCH EDICT
JUGO-SLAVIAN POLITICIANS CONDEMNED United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright BELGRADE, August 8. Ten members of the Cabinet, including M. Stoyadinocitch and 10 Deputies, including M. Stoyadinovitch’s brother, were denounced from pulpits in the Orthodox Churches throughout Jugo-Slavla for supporting the Concordat. Ecclesiastical Courts will try them later. Two thousand silently listened at Belgrade to the excommunicatory roll call, but suburban congregations greeted each name with the response: “May he be damned.” Pamphlets ask the populace to boycott those excommunicated. The Orthodox authorities refused to baptise Postmaster-General M. Kalouejerchitch’s new-born son.
