W) More than 00 pastors of th protectant con teaalonal synod have been arrested under nazl rule, the Rev. Martin Nel rnoeller, militant leader of Protestant opposition to government domination of the church, charged today. Most of the clergymen. Herr Net- moller said, were ansted soon sfter the nazii came to power In 1933. Ultimately almost all were released until a new wave of arrests began recently. There were between 20 and 30 In the most recent group of arrested clergymen, said Herr Nlemoeller. Last night Herr Nlemoeller sddress- ed a tremendous congregation In a residential suburb. He had to re peat his sermon to a second audi en os. The only untoward incident oc curred when a woman arose and walk d out, commenting tartly: "Shame on such Inciting speeches." Only oc cupants of pews near her heard the remark, however. Herr Nlemoeller, mincing no words, declared the Protestant church never would be fitted into a political framework. After listing more oppositional pas tors he said had been arrested, ex pelled, or forbidden their pulpits, and charging the offices of the Prussian Council of Brethren had been sealed up by the authorities, paralyzing Its labors, the psstor declared: "The elections are the reverse of free. Only the enemies of the church, have a free hand. If the object Is that the church is to be fitted into a political framework, the answer can only be: 'Not' "For then the evangelical church would be left under the guidance of those whom Christ called 'false shep herds and hirelings.' Any reorganiz ation of the church only can be ef fected from the standpoint that Ood alone Is Lord of the church." Presumably the outspoken pastor haa not yet Joined his colleagues In governmental disfavor because of the tactical reasons and his widespread popularity.
