VATICAN REVEALS TERRIBLE PLIGHT OF POLISH PEOPLE The Vatican’s startling disclosures of the plight of the Polish people under the Nazi rule reaffirms stories i that have filtered through from that hapless-eountry, since the German occupation, which were at first discounted by press and public as being too fantastically horrible to be true. Mass shootings, plundering and persecution are listed in Catholic reports as the rule, rather than the exception. has broadcast that 70 per.cent of the people of Poland face starvation. These broadcasts, based on’ eye-witness reports, have been so. strong that the German government § has made formal diplomatic protest to the Vatican, saying that the radio station is participating in enemy propaganda against the Reich. The stream of protest from the Vatican has caused some comment in this.country by observers, who point Jout that the Catholic church apparently was unperturbed by mass killings of Loyalists in Spain during the Spanish Civil War. One Catholic report charged that 15,000 Polish leaders were massacred at Gdynia after first being ordered to dig their own graves: It is undisputed fact that the same thing happened to Masons who were Loyalists in Spain. The latest available figures, released by the Vatican Secretariat of State late in January, placed _ the number of political prisoners in the at half a million men and women. On.a per capita basis, this would be the same as if 3,000,000 persons were imprisoned in this country on Hol tical charges. Beedle, foreman of the forest service, Monday for a weeks supervision in} .
