REDS ACT
AGAINST
GERMAN CHURCHES
Move Slowly, Carefully in Occupation Zone to Destroy
Influence As Was
Done in Russia.
By WALLACE R. DEUEL
Times Special Writer
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—The Soviets have launched
a drive against the churches in
According to reports from the Reich.
nists are proceeding slowly and carefully—by their stand- | ards—so as not to alienate to many Germans too soon. In the end, however, they intend | to d:stroy the in fluence of the & German churches ; Just as completely § as they have de-
stroyed that of the church in Russia.
The Soviets have worked out their whole plan of campaign for the Reich. They will strike each blow in the campaign as the time seems ripe for it. | The Communists have begun by | attacking the Christian Democratic | Union, a political party of both Protestant and Catholics which is active in all four zones in Germany.
Forced to Quit Party Christian Democratic representatives in the Central Youth Committee in Leipzig, in the Russian | gone, were recently forced to resign from their party, Communist city officials there have taken simi-
lar action against representatives of the Liberal party. “Both the Christian Democratic Union and the Liberal party are reactionary,” officials said to the youth committee representatives. “Their members may expect to be treated the same way that the Nazis have been treated.” Both parties have been forced to turn over complete membership lists to the Russian secret political police in Saxony.

charged Christian Democratic leaders in Saxony with “obstructionist tactics and an anti-Russian attitude in general.” Tactics Are Revealed . The officers made thinly-veiled threats that the Soviets would dissolve the party. Minutes ot a recent secret Com-

in Saxony reveal the party's tactics for liquidating the churches. Speakers exchanged the following
E | views:
A Communist named Bialek: “We'll give them a dozen beatings a day—until they're almost knocked out. Then we'll pat them and pet them and nurse them along so that they decide everything's going to be | all right, after all, and help us sign up some more new members. “Then we'll really knock them out after that.” Party speaker from Brandenburg: “The time has not yet come for the final knockout blow against the churches. “There are still too many polit-
DANGER SEEN IF CONTROLS ~ ARE RELAXED
Lack of Antagonism Now to ‘Liberators’ Could Change With Time.
By DAVID M. NICHOL Times Foreign Correspondent FRANKFURT, Germany, Nov. 20 —No conquering army--at least of world war II—has had so little trouble as has that of the United States in this occupation zone. None ever had so many “collaborators,” Nevertheless, in the back of the mind of everyone dealing with the problems of occu= pation lurks the . certainty that the longer the occupation contines .. the more probi lems will arise. Undoubt~ edly, deputy military governor Lt. Gen. Lucius D. Clay was thus aware when he recently warned the three provinces in his zone that unless more energy were shown, the denazification program, turned over to German special courts last summef, would be taken back by the Americans. The traditional German master-and-servant complex may be the

Rabbi Eligndgstt To Speak in Drive
Rabbi Maurice N. Eisendrath of Cincinnati, director of the Union of American Hebrew congregations, will speak here tomorrow in connection with the “ -American Jewish * Cavalcade. ""% Rabbi Eisen- #& drath, who is a . leader of Reform # Judaism, is serv- # ing as a visiting { preacher of the] nation-wide cav-| . alcade, or religious emphasis program. Rabbi Eisendrath pe will speak on “Judaism, the Oldest Living Faith” tomorrow night at the 90th anniversary banquet of the Indianapolis Hebrew congregation at the Broadmoor Country club. Hes also will meet with the temple board tomorrow at noon at the Columbia club. The purpose of the cavalcade is to interest more members of the Jewish community in attending and supporting the synagog and to reinterpret Judaism for the faithful so that they may have a greater appreciation of their religion and its institutions. The American Jewish Cavalcade was scheduled for November because the month marks the 100th anniversary of the coming to Amer-
institute’s activities throughout the | United States.

able throughout the American zone. Or perhaps, it may be due to the lure of cigarets and food. No Real Antagonism At any rate, the nearest approach to civil resistance which I have found in six weeks tourlng came the other day, when an American colleague and I—out of uniform’ but in clothes that pegged us as foreigners—were walking along a street in a small German village. Along the road came a German civilian driver in his beetle-sized volkswagen. He ploughed through a puddle and drenched us in mud. What antagonism has been demonstrated against the American occupiers has been found in most cases to be a matter of juvenile showing off, or perpetrated by bits of society’s “lunatic fringe.” There has been no instance of a U. 8. soldier's death even remotely traceable to political motivation. Elements of Booby Trap But the crime rate among the Germans themselves continues to mount. Theft is the most frequent charge. Even the recent Stuttgart bombings are now generally believed to have been perpetrated by | Germans against Germans, one of the bombs employed, was found to be merely of the old popular racketeers’ stench type. Nevertheless, all this has elements of a booby-trap for the oeccupation powers. Believing no danger exists they might relax their controls gn these former Nazis. Right now whatever hatred or resentment is evidenced seems directed exclusively against the Russians. The Germans speak of theny] with contempt and tell such stories of happenings in the Russian zone that it is impossible to separate fact from fancy. But the western powers, .which arrived” as liberators, are now occupiers and they may yet come to be as hated as the Russians.

NEW YORK, Nov. 20 (U. P.).— The United States will watch direct negotiations between Italy and Yugoslavia with a skeptical eye and examine any agreements they reach on Trieste or their border most carefully, it was learned today. American officials said their attitude toward direct Italo-Yugoslav negotiations was the same as expresed by Secretary of State James F. Byrnes a week ago. He did not discourage and at the same time gave no display of enthusiasm when the subject first was raised by Yugoslavia. Since then, these Officials point out, the Russians and otner members of the Big Four have reached almost complete agreement on plans for internationalizing Trieste. Just as it took unanimous Big Four agreement to reach such a stage, it also will take a unanimous decision to change any of the plans. Ambassadors Confer Both the Italian ambassador, Alberto Tarchiani, and the Yugoslav ambassador, Sava Kasanovich, were engaged in eqnferences with their staffs all morming, presumably planning for the -forthcoming negotiations, American officials justified their previously cool atitude toward direct negotiations on the ground
