...motorists and motorcyclists. Secret police confiscated a few copies but on Palm Sunday priests and bishops throughout the Reich bravely mounted their pulpits, read to the faithful the Pope's blunt rejection of Nazi doctrines of "blood and soil" and his sharp protest at Nazi violations of the concordat which the Church "with grave misgivings" had ratified in 1933 (TIME, July...
