(From Our Special Correspanilèat).
London, Oct. 17.
Dr. Goebbels's statement to the Nazi leaders that if they had ap- plied themselves to religion they might be bishops as well as leaders, and Herr kler might be a car- dinal, is one of the worst pieces of propaganda that even the Propa, ganda Minister has yet produced.
Gerraan Roman Catholles will be specially interested, for both Dr. Goebbels and Herr Hitler have been excluded from the sacraments of the Catholic Church.
Dr. Goebbels was a member of the celebrated Unitas Verbinding- the Catholic students corporation | of Freiburg University-and re- ceived a scholarship. from the authorities.
Later, however, he married a rich divorcée, Hitler being best man at the wedding. Since that time both have been refused the
sacraments.
