e BAVARIAN CHURCH WARNEDBY HITLER Must “Fall in Line” or Lese Rich Revenues, Wag- ner Says. BACKGROUNL— Since his assumption of power in Gerrany four years ago, Hitler has made an increasing fight on organized religion. He considers it {ncompatible with the totalitarian state he is seeking. The Catholic Church has cited cases of discrim- ination and efforts to undermine it. Protestant ministers have been or- dered to make their churches *comply” with the state’s philos- ophy. B the Assoctated Press. BERLIN, June 28 (&) —Protestant and Catholic churches of Bavaria, threatened with loss of state subsi- dies, today were given another chance o fall in line with Nazi policies and retain the rich revenues ‘The newest blow aimed in the bitter Nazi state-church conflict was an- nounced by the Bavarian minister of interior, Alfred Wagner, last night at Fuerstenfeldbruck. He left the door open, however, for the continuation of state contributions ~—if the churches bow to the Nazi will. *I hope that it still will be possible ¥ C.

Martin Niemoeller, militant leader of the eonfessional Protestants, told a large eongregation that “As long as the world exists one must obey God rather than man.” The Protestant leader declared that & number of confessional pastors, many of whom have been subjected to secret police questioning in recent weeks, will face a Nazi emergency court this week. ‘Wagner's announcement declared that contributions which totaled 140,- 000,000 marks ($56,000,000) during the four years of Nazi rule, would be eut down 5000000 marks at a time | until they cease in 1940. “The churches have only themselves to blame if the state no longer con- tributes to their upkeep,” the minister said. “They have had four years to fall in stride with the rest of us.” To Continue to Collect Taxes. Bavaria, however, will continue to eollect church taxes for both the Catholics and Protestants, which in 1936 amounted to 26,000,000 marks ($10,400,000), and, in addition, cer- tain state payments provided in the ‘Vatican concordat will be continued, he said. Rev. Mr. Niemoeller charged tha! the Gestapo (German secret police) eontinued to question church leaders. The protestant minister read a list of ministers and laymen under arrest, and stated that several arrested early this week had been released. He said that 47 Protestant churchmen were under arrest at present, and that 60 had been tried or had been ordered to leave their districts or states. “I suppose,” Niemoeller added iron- | fcally, “that I am the only confes- sional preacher still not arrested.” t ro Deaths lieported Carrle E_Phillips, £4; 1434 Euclid st.

PORT DARWIN, Australia, June 28. —Amelia Earhart made ready today for the “worst section” of her globe- girdling flight. “It's been a very interesting flight,” said the American flyer after setting her silver monoplane down in ern Australia at 11:28 a.m. (8:58 p.m. E. S. T. Sunday), ending a hop from | Koepang in the Dutch East Indies. “But for slight mechanical trouble, which was remedied at Bandoeng, Java, we have experienced no hold- ups. We've been sitting down waiting for Australia to turn up and we'll push on to Lae, New Guinea, tomor- rth. w morning,” she explained. “I'm not takng any risks, but I am flying as fast as possible. From Lae to Howland Island will be the worst section of the flight, but with Freddy Noonan navigating I'm confident we'll make it.” (Noonan is Miss Earhart's navi- gator on the world trip.) The 1550-mile hop from Lae will take the American flyer across a vast stretch of the Southern Pacific out of | sight of land except for.a scattering of small islands. Her destination is Howland Island, tiny American pos- session just above the equator. Earhart has kept her route as near the equator as possible. From Howland she plans to fly to Hawaii and thence to Oekland, Calif. Hours Lost Flying East. BY AMELIA EARHART. KOEPANG, Island of Timor, Nether- land, East Indies, June 27 (By Wire- less) —The penalty for flying east is losing hours. 17; hours between here and Australia, for instance, There will be a loss of Miss \ search these out as fascinating places. The country here is very different from that of Java. The climate is very dry and trees are sparse. There is very little cultivation in the open spaces around the airport, the surface of which is grass, long dry and un- dulating in the strong wind. The airport is surrounded by a stone fence a few feet high to keep out roaming wild pigs. The fleld is a very good one, but there are no facilities except & little shed for fueling and con- sequently we had to stake our Lockheed down and wrap it up for the night with engine and propeller covers. I am unable to sleep unless I know the plane is well cared for. Our work amazed the natives from a nearby village very much and when we had to turn the craft’s nose into the wingl all the men wilingly and noisily | helped push. (Copyrignt, 1837.)

Colombo said. “The National Labor Relations Board’s charges that we have done s0 are untrue. Beyond that I have no comment.” Colombo said the next step in rou- tine procedure would be the filing of & formal answer to the charges on the company’s behalf.
