KIPA, Swiss Catholic news agency, reports that many French priests'have volunteered as sim-t pie laborers and have gone to . j Germany in that capacity, in order that the French workers condemned to forced labor in the Reich may not be without spiritual assistance.These priest-workers perform their required day’s work and in their off-hours dedicate themselves to the spiritual care of their compatriots. His Holiness Pope Pius XII has granted them wide faculties. If they are not free in the morning, they may celebrate Mass in the afternoon or evening. They may offer up three Masses on Sunday.Speaking of coincidence— James B. * Mulherin, Augusta attorney, and chairman of the Retreat Section of the Catholic Laymen’s Association of Georgia, served during the first World War as a first lieutenant of infantry in the 7th Division, after having seen service on the Mexican border as an officer of the Richmond Huz-zars, a National Guard unit from Augusta.Lieutenant Mulherin was given his discharge from active duty in Atlanta, on June 28, 1919.Exactly 24 years later, to the day, on June 28, 1943, in Atlanta, Lieutenant Mulherin’s son, Matthew William Mulherin, was inducted into the United States Navy.
