VAN ESS LABORATORIES, 5007 Lake Park Ave., Chicage, IIL The World Aghast As Red Russia Mocks Christendom I.\' MOSCOW, at 4 oclock in the morning of March 31, Monsignor Butchkavitch, Vicar- General of the Roman Catholic Church in Rus- sia, after a night of brutal tauntings and torture, was led down into the cellar beneath the Cheka - building and shot to death. This execution fol- lowed a trial of fifteen Catholic priests which included, besides the Vicar-General, Archbishop Zepliack, on the charge, according to dispatches, of “opposing the Soviet Government.” The Archbishop was also sentenced to death but as a concession, it is said, to the religious senti- ments of the Russian peasants, his sentence was commuted by the Central Executive Committee to ten years’ imprisonment. , Protests and pleas for clemency from Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish organizations in all parts of the world, from the Pope and from the governments of Great Britain, the United States, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, and Czecho-Slovakia, had no effect in staying the death sentence. “The formal protest of America, the nation that fed some millions of Russians starving a few months ago, stirred Moscow to a peculiar rage,” 'says the Philadelphia Public Ledger. “It was the strange frenzy of the atrogant, un- grateful beggar whose belly has been filled and whose sores have been washed. In the eyes of millions of people over the world, Red Russia has stamped herself as the anti-Christ with the mark of the beast set on her brow.” This latest action of the Soviet government has aroused the indignation of the entire Chris- tian world and may have far-reaching conse- quences.
