pr.d;iMy no other country over
whelmingly C.-nhoiic has ever
iwn a Twelvemonth wherein no
priest of thai faith has officiated ,
ii any of its churches.
The .Mexican Kpiseopate ordered :
Its priest.- to' withdraw ft om their j
hurches and to cease services!
i herein, concurrently with the tuk- :
effect of tbe religious reyula-;
t ions, as a proievi against t hem.
Until th;it time i";ttlndic services by
priests in its ehurclfes bad never ,
in .Mexico been st tiled for a day :
since the- Spanish Coiiquistadores ;
brought the Cross to the western i
world four centuries ago and jdani-
I it in the ruins of the A. lee -Um
pire which they overthrew.
Long Problem
. Mexico' religion problem has
xisteil since the middle of tbe last
enlury, but it had slumbered for
several decntes until made acute
L-ain last year by Pre.-fdent Calles'
tMomulKJitifm of the present regu-lation-.
-
Those regulations limit and sup
ervise activities of the church and
Its priests and require the latter
to register wilh the civil authorities.
Catholics maintained that such leg
ist gallon would he acceptance of
the .Mexican government instead of
tbe pope as the supreme authority
of the church; that the regula
tions menaced religious freedom,
constituted Catholic persecution.
