CHURCH PROPERTY TAKEN
FOR FRENCH AUTHORITIES.
New York, Dec. 13.—Many seeking
a cause for the warfare between the
French government anil the Roman
Catholic church declare that it wus the
Increasing activity of the church In
national politics. • A less obvious cause,
they say, was the remarkable hold of
Roclallstic propaganda on the minds of
the people who gradually awoke to the
fact that the liberty they so lbnged for
was certainly not to be found under
the double yoke of government and
church.
Jn the last quarter of a century the
nation has become acutely sensitive to
the touch of the Vatican in the politics
of France, and not only seemed ready
for the ratification of the separation
law, but also for Its enforcement this
week.
Church Loses Francs.
This act means practically the loss of
France to the church. Outside of Spain
France has for centuries been the most
obedient and loyal daughter of Rome,
so that tljls crisis seems an unnatural
blow to the established order of things.
It also means that title of church
property to the value of $200,000,000 I*
turned over to the Mtate; that tho Ro
man Catholic church In France Is dis
established. and that hereafter no en
dowed church will be allowed to grow
in strength and power beyond certain
limits. In fact. It is ns complete a
divorce of state and church as the most
rabid aeparatlonlst might ask for.
Act Passed in 1905.
The chamber of deputies passed the
act of disestablishment, ns the law Is
known, on July 3, 1905. The senate
pasted It on December 6 following, and
it was ratified on December 11, 1905
It provided that a year’s time be given
to the church In which to complete Its
side of the question. At the end of
(list per I is I h was expected that the
church would be ready to hand over
Its property to the government and
continue Its work under the order of
things. Thl« new order, as conceived
und enacted by French statesmen, re
quired the churches to be conducted
by public worship associations or In
corporation*.
After months of agitation, the Vati
can refused to establish such associa
tion*. By so doing. It would virtually
be admitting defeat and evincing com
pliance with one of the most hostile
movements It had ever been called upon
to face. It so happened, therefore, thut
the churches are today like so many
ships at sea that know not what port
to steer to.
Property Hold by State.
All the church property In the coun
try Is now In th«* hands of the French
government. According to the law,
there Is slip otic more year In which
to transfer it to the public worship
associations. But the church has not
the slightest Intention of complying.
The state may sell, rent or destroy
every cathedra! or church edifice in the
lam!, with the Vatican powerless to
raise a finger.
The state ha* also provided that no
church shall accumulate endowments
exceeding three time* Its revenue. If
the revenue Is more than 5,000 francs
annually. The public worship associa
tions are supposed to bo the financial
manager* of the religious establish
ments and to be the intermediary be
tween them and tho state. As for the
charitable Institutions and such organ
izations ns are not directly associated
with the church, the state will take
them.
Trouble Over Pensions.
The matter of tension* gave a great
deal of trouble in the period when dis
establishment agitation ran high. It
was enacted that the clergymen who
had spent many years in the church
should receive pensions not greater
than I.50O francs and that the younger
should derive annuities from the state
for periods varying from 4 to 8 years,
hi the past It has been the custom of
the state to pay these salaries, and the
state will save in this alone I9.000.oo0
annually.
The revolution not only got rid of re.
tlgton for the time being, but also of
the church. Napoleon, however, as soon
4* he became first consul, arranged a
concordat with Plus VII, under which
the consul nominated and the pope ap
pointed a certain number of bishops.
Napoleon, however, wished to use these
bishops for the glory of France and re.
qulred them to swear allegiance to the
republic. This several of them refused
to do, and were driven from France.
Thev went to England, formed their
La Petite Kgliz. which flourished for a
number of years.
Pope Was Captured.
In l*»>9 Napoleon grew less regard
ful of the Vatican and published the
decree of Hchoenbrunn. The pope was
captured an*! Imprisoned at F«*ntaln-
bleu. and It wa* then* that another con-!
eordat. commonly culled '•the false con- j
