1933 Concordat Is To Be Junked In Germany
Berlin reports say the government plans to cancel the 1933 Concordat with the Vatican to press through Nazi reforms including land redistribution. The move follows allegations by Ludwig Sebastian the bishop of Speyer that non church matters reached the Vatican during a priest’s slander trial. Catholic sources caution the cross examination was staged to justify breaking the accord and pushing agrarian changes. The plan would pool small farms into collectives, with farmers retaining rights by land contributed. No clear sign the Catholic Church holdings would be affected.
