NAZIS MAKE FURTHER ARRESTS New Move in German Anti-Catholic Policy A cable to the Australian press r ecently indicated that further hostility towards the Catholic Church has been shown by the Nazi Government in Germany, and that prominent officials of C atholic organisations have been arrested and their offices searched. Not only has the Government flouted the Concordat with the Holy See in recent months, but it now seems that the persecution of the Church has entered upon an even more violent stage. The first step was the muzzling of the Catholic press and the diffusion of Alfred Rosenbet:g's neopagan doctrine . Then the Government tried to control the youth morally and physically by outlawing the Catholic Youth Now the recent cable Groups. tends to confirm report received from overseas Catholic papers that prominent officials of Catholic organisations Nvero. the next victims.

aware that the correspondence oi the whole episcopate in Germany passes through his hands. Confidential documents regarding c onditions in various dioceses w ere also seized, and this, it is declared, is a violation of the guarantees given by Germany when she signed the concordat with the Vatican. "The headquarters of the largest Catholic youth organisation were raided at Dusseldorf by the police, who have since remained in the building painstakingly r eading every document. The general secretary, Father Clemens, has been arrested. Father Sinnigen, general secretary of the Dominican Council of Superiors, has also been arrested at Berlin. In no case 4as any charge been preferred." Comment of "The Catholic Times." "The Catholic Times," of London, has some illuminating comment on the many arrests of religious in Germany on charges of v iolating the currency laws. "A climax to these arrests was Cable Reports. reached when Bishop Legge, of The cable stated that during Meissen, was apprehended at the week-end the Right Rev.

"The police clearly were and measures which might oh.

"According to a Reuter message, a 'most lamentable impression' has been caused in Vatican circles at the news, and it is said that the Pope feels very bitterly on the subject. Information from Amsterdam shows that the terrorism against Catholics is expressing itself in daily acts of brutality, whch are reported from all parts of the country. "A particularly outrageous act on the part of Hitler Youth members occurred in the \\Tupper Valley, Westphalia, when a number of them, between the ages o 15 and 17 years, uprooted a mission cross from the front of a Catholic church ,and used it as a target for shooting practice, focussing upon it a searchlight. When the inscription `I;1\1,R.I.' was struck by a bullet the -youths shouted, `Down with Jews and

Christians. The King of the Jews is down !" "The most amazing part of the occurrence, which is fully authenticated, was the arrest of the parish priest of the church, when the local clergy registered a formal protest against the desecration. In another part of Westphalia, during the course of a flower show, a crowd of Nazis arranged a procession of trucks laden with anti-clerical propaganda material. Arrests and Suppressions. "The official acts of oppression against the Church includes the arrest of three more priests, all for alleged attacks, in one form or another, upon the regime. For a similar reason, the official diocesan organ of East Prussia has been suppressed for three months and the 5,n00 Catholic circulating libraries of the Borroweausverein have been ordered to change their names to "Catholic Parish Libraries' to av id misleading the public."

Recently acquired books: Hilaire 13elloc: "James the Second." Margaret Yeo: "Full Circle.' Maurice Walsh: " Green Rushes.J. B. Priestly: "English Journey." "James the Second." Mr. I3elloc needs no introduction. His "James the Second" is a brilliant study in the grand style of the man who was the founder of the British Navy, and the last monarch to attempt to govern England without a Parliament. This book takes rank with the finest of Mr. Belloc's achievements. "English Journey." Priestly's "English journey" is one of the finest books published in recent years. It is written in Priestly's inimitable style. Those who have read "The Good Companions," "The Wonder ITero," and "Adam in Moonshine," which, by the way, are all in the library, will enjoy this very fine work of .71 popular author. Green Rushes." "Green Rushes," by Maurice Walsh, is an ingeniously knit novel of original design. Taking a leaf from the book of the epic writer, Maurice Walsh has here gathered about his arch-hero, Hugh Forbes ("The Small Dark Man") a company of kindred souls_-men and women whose lives are interwoven with his and with one another's by the cunning fingers of destiny--even as green rushes are deftly plaited 11,. little shepherd boys. "Tull Circle." This is a brilliant study in charac. t erisation, a period which gives an P xcruisitely faithful picture of Victorian •ind Boer War days, woven into a harming love story.

Dr. Kelly's thought-provoking lecture on Catholic Action has Of the comaroused the usual storm of protest in the Press. supported Bunbury of Bishop the of that appeared, which ments the main thesis—admitting the necessity for common action against the tide of Paganism. He denied, however, the absence of religious teaching in the State schools—though he did not touch on its utter insufficiency, which was the lecturer's point. Regarding the orthodoxy of his brother Bishops regarding the Divinity of Christ—his assurance may be taken for granted. He must not, however, be unmindful of the aberrations of some of them, such as Bishop Barnes and Bishop Talbot. In fairness, however, to his Lordship, it may be granted that, although their extreme views do not reflect those of the Bench of Bishops, nevertheless their apparent toleration is blameworthy and likely to render the Bench's doctrinal teaching suspect. This position will appear more paradoxical when considering the views of extreme Modernists, who reject the clear For doctrine of the Creed concerning the Divinity of Christ. much as have modernists the Anglicans have been told that right to their position in the Anglican Church as the Anglo-Catholics themselves. The Bishop of Gloucester, Dr. Headlam, in the "Church Times," of August, 1921, is thus reported: "I always hold that both for modernists and for Anglo-Catholics there should be reasonable freedom of interpretation of the formulas of the Church, and I think with a little charity we can find room for There is no Christian ivIcdernists in the Church of England." to heresy. chz,rity in being indifferent * * In 1921. an epoch-making conference of Modern Churchmen at Cambridge openly denied Christ's Divinity and miracles.

To Those who tolerate it such a pass has Modernism come. lay themselves open to the charge of heresy, in the matter of Christ's Divinity. Was it this broad tolerance of heresy by his Church authorities which inspired Dean Inge's epigrammatic gibe against the Anglican Bishops. "Even a Bishop," he said, "would only expostulate mildly if he were told that he was no Christian, but would be very angry if he were told he were no gentleman." Whatever might be said in favour of the Bishop of Bunbury's comment, much less can be said for the criticism by the Rev. Mr. Amongst other extraordinary statements, he says that Lyons. "none but a rabid partisan could claim that our civilisation was founded on Catholic Christianity." We have never had much respect for Mr. Lyons' theological views, and we have less for his In the matter of figures he is also at historical knowledge. variance with the facts. "I will hazard a guess," he states, "that speaking proportionately, as large a percentage of Protestants attend Church as Catholics." Only the mention of guess-work can Yet he implies that the excuse him for his innocent simplicity. prevalent idea is that Catholics are the most numerous Churchgoers proportionately—for he says the delusion is largely due to the fact that Rome builds few churches and large ones. The reverse is exactly the position—and much more so than any other denomination, as witness the terms Church Hall and Church School, which signify the supply of houses of worship where the His population is so scanty as not to warrant a large church. proof of the depth of religious teaching in the State schools is ilThe Hymn which he quotes and the Psalm, might luminating. well be taught to _a Buddhist or a Mohammedan, without interfering in any way with their views on Christianity!

A Great Christmas Offering AT SUBIACO Long before the hour of midnight, St. Joseph's Church was filled with devout Catholics who had come both from Subiaco, Rosalie and Wembley, to adore the Christ of Bethlehem. The altar and sanctuary were certainly a wonderful tribute to the little Divine Babe, and the Sister sacristan is to be congratulated on her exquisitely artistic adornment of the high altar. It would be difficult to find an altar in any part of Western Australia so beautiful in its appearance on Christmas morn as the altar in St. Joseph's Church, Subiaco. The parishioners wish to thank the good Sisters of St. John of God for all their devoted work during the past year, and also to congratulate them on their efficiency. The Rev. Father Winston sang a Missa Cantata, during which about nine hundred people approached the altar rails. About ten minutes to twelve the joyous and melodi. ous strain of the "Adeste Fideles" reechoed through the church. Before ihe Mass the Asperges took place, and the Mass, so well rendered by the choir, was Weber's in G. At the Offertory, Mrs. E. Clear sang Luzzi's -Ave Maria," and at the conclusion the Mass the choir sang Handel' familiar "Hallelujah Chorus." Trul) could Rev. Father Winston praise his parishioners for this wonderful mani. festation of their love and loyalty to the "New-Born King," wrapped n longer in swaddling clothes but in the veil of bread and wine. "Who was that man \ oti rai r ' ,-otir hat to?" "My barber. He sold me a bottle of hair restorer a month ago. and I'm letting hm see what a fraud he is." • • Algy (recounting tediou-: story): "And then the big brute threatened to blow my brains out." Friend: "And did he?"

A poultry dealer advertised ns for sale. In the announceent he stated that: "Anyone living a dozen of these fine pulcts can always be sure of getting or 10 eggs from them." An old lady was his first customer. She bought a dozen birds. Some time later she called on the dealer again. "11 ay." she told him. "I can't get anything like eight eggs from those pullets." "Ah. madam," said the dealer artfully, "how often do you collect the eggs?" " Why. every day, of c ame the reply.

"Then that accounts for it." returned the dealer. "Go every three or four days to the nests and you'll get the eight or ten eggs as I advertised."

FEAST OF THE WEEK.

Reading for the Home

THE EPIPHANY. The object of this feast is fully set forth in the Gospel of the Mass. It is one of the oldest feasts, and has been traced back to the fourth and even to the end of the third century. The word "Epiphany" means "manifestation," or the revelation of the coming of the Saviour to the Gentiles in the person of the Magi. The chief object of this feast is to honour Christ as King of the whole world, and to beg of God the grace for all men to know, love and serve Him. It is in a very special way our own feast day. for the Magi were out representatives at the Feet of the little Divine Babe of Bethlehem.

SIXTY-FIRST YEAR.

VLAMINGH'S COMMEMOcRATION Among all the play and interplay ot circumstance in history, none is stranger tnan the odd elements wincii contributed to the discovery of Australia and, in particular, to our own State. At the time of the Reformation the l'ortugese were the navigators of the world. They had, for all practical purposes, a monopoly of trade in the Pacific. But the religious hates which the Reformation let loose in Europe proved their undoing. Philip II. of Spain had unavailingly met the apostacy of his N etherlands subjects with the r uthlessness of the sword. The Dutch were the European distributing agents for the Portuguese, and it had proved a very profitable business. However, when Philip seized the Portuguese throne in 1580, he thought he might achieve by trade embargo what he had failed to accomplish by the sword. In 1584 he closed the port of Lsbon to the heretic's ships. The Dutch were faced with the ruin of their commerce. But they resolved to undertake direct trade with the East, and failing to find a route through the Arctic wastes of the North, to employ the Portugese route in the teeth of Spanish opposition.

Memorial Tablet at Rottnest

Though the Portugese 114.4_ endeavoured to keep their Sailing r outes secret, they had, from time to time to employ Dutch navigators. So when the feud began, the Dutch were found to know a great deal more about the Indies than the Spaniards suspected. By degrees they forced an entry into the Eastern trade, and by the beginning of the 17th. century had altogether supplanted the Portuguese as the principal European Power in Eastern seas. Combining exploration with commerce, they had by the end of the first half of the 17th. century pierced together an outline of the northern and western portions of the land which lay to the south of the spice islands. Their knowledge of the west coast was for the most part acquired gradually through a series of accidents.

It wa3 in 1610 that Hendrik Brouwer, a commander of marked ability, made the important discovery that by steering east frorn vhe Cape for about 3,000 miles, and then turning north, he could, with the benefit of favourable winds, complete the journey in much less time and with greatly reduced mortality among the crew. (It was not

uncommon for a ship to lose 60 per cent. of her people on the voyage.) The Directors of the East India Company decided to take Brouwer's advice, and from 1613 all Dutch commanders were instructed to follow his route. This arrangement was the turning point in Australian discovery. A vessel running eastward with a free wind would likely enough sight the Australian coast. So it happened in a number of cases. Dirk Hartog, remaining to long on the Eastern course, landed on the island by Shark's Bay, which now bears Incidentally he left his name. there a record of his visit engraved on a tin plate, which was found by Captain William Vlamingh, of the Dutch ship "Geclvink," in 1696. Vlamingh sent the plate home to Amsterdam as a relic of discovery and erected one in its place. His in turn was discovered by a French exploring party, twenty-one years later, and the commander. Louis de Freycenet took it with him to Paris. V lamingh was a Dutch navigator, who was commissioned to convoy a fleet from Java to Batavia. He had instructions to

examine, at the same time, the ‘vest coast of New Holland for any traces of a Dutch cargo vessel which had disappeared. Sighting land on Christmas Day, 1696, he anchored, three days later, off an island which he called Rottnest, from the number of rats' (wallabies) nests he found upon it. Then he landed on the mainland and brought his ships to the mouth of the river, which he named "Swaenerevir," because he found there a species of black swan ("een sorte van swartc swanen"). From such strange historical 'accidents" did the western coast become known. Monday's ceremony at Rottnest perpetuates not alone the memory of Vlamingh, but of all those early and intrepid explorers who unearthed the new southern world. Such a function as Monday's is a goodly curative in an age which reeks of a silly and shallow nationalism. It serves to remind the nations, who theorically are tending towards inter-nationalism, but practically towards provincialism, that there was in the past a unity in Europe made possible by the universal faith

to which the nations subscribed.
