ViciousAttackOn TheMissionaries Repulsed

RANCHI,India,Aug.25.-A scurrilousattackontheIndian Christiancommunity,carriedby alocalpaper;pinthispopulous cityoftheProvinceofBihar, hasbeensmashinglyanswered byahighGovernmentofficial andothers.

Theattackwaspublishedin thenewspaper,"Sentinel,"inan articlebya"staffreporter," whichassailedmissionariesas tools"ofBritishimperialism" beforeindependenceandfor "IndianisingChristianity"asa "subtledevicetogainconverts" afterindependence.

"TheChristianmissionaries are,ofcourse,afinelot,"the articlebegan."Tilltheother day(beforeindependence)they were,itiswellknown,thefirst lineofdefenceofBritishimperialisminIndia.Theyofferedallkindsofbaittothepoor andconvertedthemtoChristianity.Gospelprecededtrade andflagfollowedtrade.The convertsweredenationalisedin notime."

Duringtheindependence struggle,thearticlewenton, Europeanmissionariesincited ChristianIndianstoopposethe freedommovementtoothand nail.Ofthepresentactivities ofmissionaries,the"staffreporter"wenton:

"Theyhave,ofcourse,stopped theabuseofHinduismandIslam.Buttheyhaveadopted worsedevices.Nothingbut praiseisraineduponMahatma Gandhiinthemissionarypress ofIndia.Butwhatissaidbetweenlinesisnoteworthy:all thatisgoodintheteachingsof GandhiisborrowedfromChristianityandallthatisbadfrom Hinduism."

DefendersoftheIndianChristiancommunityimmediately cametothefore,includingM. Morris,amemberoftheIndian ConstituentAssembly;L.Sen,a retiredgovernmentofficial;Dr. B.S.Laha,aretiredcivilsurgeon,andothers.Amongthe Catholicclergy,therewascited thenameoftheRev.JeromeDe Souza,whoseattachmenttothe NationalistcausetheCongress highcommandhasrecognised bynominatinghimtotheIndian ConstituentAssembly.Bishops FrancisRoche,ofTuticorin, ThomasPothacamury,ofBangalore,andThomasGracias, AuxiliaryofBombay,were namedasbeingardentsupportersofthesamecauseamong theCatholicHierarchyfromthe verybeginningoftheircareers.

ThearticlesofMr.Senand DoctorLahaappearedinthe "Sentinel"itselfandanswered thestaffreporter'sallusionto Christianityasa"foreignreli-

gion"bysayingthat"Roman Catholicismisnotalieninany land,"that"itisnotlimitedby geographicalbarriersnorbynarrownationalism,"that"itis international."TheyquotedPanditJawaharlalNehru,Prime MinisterofIndia,assaying:"IndianChristiansarepartand parceloftheIndianpeople. Theirtraditionsgobackover 1,000yearsandmore.They formoneofthemanyenriching elementsinthecountry'sculturalandspirituallife."

Answeringthe"Sentinel"reporter'schargethatmissionariesarecuttingconvertsofffrom theirIndianculture,thedefenderscitedtheachievements ofFatherDeNobili,theSanyasiandSanskritscholar,at whosefeetscoresofBrahmins satforyearstolearnfromhim theintricaciesofHinduphilosophyandtheSanskritlanguage.TheycitedFatherBeschi,thegreatTamilscholarand poet,andaddedthatitwasthe CatholicmissionaryfromEuropewhofirstsetuptheprintingpressinIndiaforpublicationsinmanyIndianvernaculars.
