A MODERN MARTYR In the opinion of many, the force which will lead to the ultimate downfall of Hitler may not be British or French military power, but resentment among Germans.themselves, caused by racial and religious persecution at his hands. While this persecution has - been ‘di- rected with particular fiendishness against the Jews, it has also been directed against both Catholics and Protestants through op- pression of their clergy. Perhaps the most potent opponent of Hitler living today is Pastor Niemoeller, now beginning his third year in. solitary confinement in_a: concentration i¢amp, ‘be- cause he refused to bow to ° dictation’ in religious matters. This courageous man, who was a submarine commander during the World War, prefers to remain in pri- son in protest, rather than accept Hitler’s contro] over the church. As a result of Niemoeller’s -example, many other Protestant ministers have late- ly grown bolder in denouncing Hitler’s reli- gious dictatorship, and organized groups are said to be forming throughout.
