WhenEnglandWasCatholic

TheWindowsofaSuppressedMonastery.

Thestained-glasswindowsrecently soldinLondonbySothebyandCo., forEarlBrownlow,areclaimedtobe thewindowsthatwereremovedfrom theCistercianAbbeyatSteinfeld,at thetimeofsecularisation,byl'ather Reinartz,pastoroftheChurchat Kreux-Weingarten,nearEuskirchen,in theCologneArchdiocese,who,inan interestingarticletothe"Koelnische Volkseitung"givesthereasononwhich hebasestheclaim.

About1908,FatherReinartzreada bookbyDr.James,rectorofKing's Collegd,(Cambridge,calledrGhost StoriesofanAntiquarian,"oneof whichconcernedthetreasureofAbbot ThomasOfSteinfeld,,andthroughcorrespondencewithDr.James,Father _Reinartzlearnedthatthestorieswere phantasiesbasedonthetreasures foundinthechapelatEarlBrownlow's homeinAshbridgePark,nearLondon,whichhehadinventoriedin1904.

WhileattendingtheEucharisticCongressinLondonin1908,FatherReinartzsecuredpermissiontovisitAshbridgeParkchapel,andcarefulexaminationofthetreasuredglassconvincedhimthattheyweretheauthentic windows,whichinthesixteenthcentury,Johann,SixthAbbotofSteinfeld,commissionedthefamousglass painter,GerhardRemisch,toexecute fortheAbbeyColonnade.

Uptothesixteenthcenturythe monasteryatSteinfeldwasaflourishinginstitution,andhadthepatronage ofmanyparishesintheDioceseof Cologne,TrierandMaastricht,inHolland,andtheseventy-fivepaintings depictBiblicalscenesfromthefall oftheangelstotheresurrectionof thedead,andthelastjudgment, copiedfromilluminationsfoundina manuscriptintheTrierlibrary.

WillGermanyBecomeIndustrial?

TheToofpurchasingpowerbythe publicforcesuponGermanindustry and,toacertainextent,uponGermanagriculture,thenecessityofexportinggoods(writesGerhardHirschfeldin"America").BeforetheWar, ofcourse,eachcould,inmanyinstances,findanamplefieldinthedomesticmarket.Inthisconnection thelossoftheGermancolonies,once notonlyanexcellentsourceofraw materials,butamarketforGermany's surplus,mustbeconsidered.These twofacts,thedecreaseinpurchasing powerandthelossofthecolonies, showwhymodernGermanymustfind amethodofsellingitsgoodsinthe openworldmarket.

Itisclear,however,thatinthereconstructionoftheproducingcapacityofindustryandagriculture,industryhasbyfarthebetterchance.In thelastfouryears,Germanyhas,borrowedfromabroad,chieflyinthe UnitedStates,about10,000,000,000 marks,ofwhichparthasbeenapplied toindustry,andparttovariousfarm andagriculturalorganisations.But astrikingdifferenceintheuseof thesefundsisobservable.Industry employedthemoneyforthereorganisationandmodernisationoftheproductiveunits.Plantsmayhavethus beenburdenedwithheavychargesfor taxesandinterest,buttheresultwas anincreasedproductivecapacity,and abetterchancetocompeteinthe foreignmarketswithBritishandAmericanindustries.Agriculture,onthe otherhand,didnotinvesttheloans toanyextentinstimulatingproductionordistribution,butusedthem eitherbypayingoffshorttermdebts orfortheinterestonlong-termnotes. Thiswascarryingaheavyload.Figuringtherateateightpercent,the annualinterestamountsto1,000,000,000marks,or,approximately,250,000,000dollars.

grossincomeofthe-variousagriculti.ralenterpriseswasaboutfourbilliondollars.Thisincomehassteadilydeclined.Lastyearitwasestimatedasbetweenthreeandthreeand one-fourthbillions.Ofthisincome abouttwobillionsgotoindustry,trade andcommerce,,ridwhatisleftisappliedtotheneedsofthefarmers.Thus whileGermanindustryisrapidlyrecoveringitspre-Warposition,agricultureisfightingforabareexistence. Itsabnormallyhighdeficitinforeign trade,anditsinabilitytosupportindustryinaproperdegree,aredisadvantagesthatarehardtoovercome. Further,asagricultureisburdened withtaxesandthepaymentofinterestonborrowedcapital,itsdepressing influenceonthepurchasingpowerof thepublicisclear.

Tendenciesareatwork,then,to changeGermanyfromadistinctlyagriculturaltoadistinctlyindustrial country.Agricultureremainsinthe backgroundwhileindustryforges ahead.Thenextfewyearsarelikely toemphasiseGermany'sstrengthas anindustrialcentre.Informeryears Germanywassignificantbecauseofher strongagriculturalposition,andhPwell-balanceddomesticmarket,in whichbothindustryandagriculture receivedajustshare.Butthetimes havechanged,andnolongercanGe manysafelyrelyuponherdomestic markets.Itistotheforeignmarket thatshemustlook,andtherecanbe nodoubtthathersuccesstherewillbe founded-indeed,mustbefoundeduponastrong,well-organisedindustrial system,ratherthanuponagriculture.

ItmaysafelybeassumedthatGermanindustry,continuallyimproving, willenableittocompetesuccessfully inallforeignmarkets.Butthesame cannotbesaidofagriculture.Occupyingnearly80,000,000acres,distributedamong5,736,000units,German farmsgiveemploymenttomorethan 13,000,000workers.Butagricultureis unabletocontributeitsshareinbuildingupanactivefavourablebalance. ItactuallydeprivesGermanindustry ofmuchbusiness,sinceitdoesnot consumemorethanfromfifteento twentypercentoftheindustrialproduction.BeforetheWar,agriculture wasindustry'sbestcustomer.To-day, itsimportanceissecondary.Indeed, itiscloselyapproachedbythebuildingindustry,which.consumesabout tenpercent,andbyotherisolated industrialbranches. Germanindustry,then,ismaking giantstridestowardarecoveryofits pre-Warstatus.In1928,theexports werevaluedat700,000,000dollars,an increaseofthirteenandone-halfper centover1927.Machineryaccounted fortwelveandone-halfpercentof thetotalmanufacturedproducts,and registeredagainoftwenty-twoper centovertheprecedingyear.But turningtothebalancesheetofagriculture,itisseenthatmorethan eighty-threepercentoftheimportsrepresentrawmaterialandfoodstuffs.

In1928,about1,000,000,000dollars worthoffoodstuffshadtobeimported,whereasin1913,thevaluewasonly 476,000,000dollars.Thevalueofexportedfoodstuffsandbeveragesin1928 wasbarely150,000,000dollars.

ShouldGermanagriculturerevive, theeffectontheforeigntradebalance willberegisteredbydecreasedimportationsoffoodstuffs,andsucha recoverywouldundoubtedlyexercisea favourableinfluenceuponthepurchasingcapacityofthepublic.Butthat agriculturewilleverregainaposition whichwillgiveGermanyacommandingeconomicinfluenceintheworld market,doesnotseempossible.Itis, rather,intheexpansionandstrengtheningofherindustriesthatGermany mustfindhereconomicsalvation.
