Pius XII and Poland : a documentary outline of papal pronouncements and relief efforts in behalf of Poland, since March, 1939 1942 .txt text/plain 11236 385 58 In the Catholic periodical, Correo Catalan, October 2, 1940, appeared a note under the title “Religious Resur- rection in Ancient Poland,” and about the same time in the Catholic press of Spain there was published an interview given by a certain “German Catholic priest, Krawczyk,” who, it was said, had traveled throughout Poland and had remarked a splendid unfolding of re- ligious life in the provinces occupied by the Germans. The book says: “Mililons of German Catholics, be- longing both to the former and present provinces of the Reich, are living in full religious freedom.” 30 Pius XII and Poland If we include among the “present provinces” the regions of Western Poland—including, as noted, two archdioceses and several dioceses—the affirmation is not even true in regard to German Catholics who have been, at least in certain places, forbidden to attend services conducted by Polish priests. cache/_005197461.txt txt/_005197461.txt
