GREAT ACCELERATION.

Bishops Take
Responsibility

Bonn (JTA) — The Conference of
German Bishops has admitted
the "shared responsibility" of the
Catholic Church for anti-Semi-
tism during World War II.
In a statement issued here, the
bishops said they regretted
the "absence of resistance by
many Catholics against the
Nazis."
"Many Catholics allowed
themselves to be taken over by
Nazi ideology," the statement
said.
The statement was issued as
political and religious leaders
from around the world gathered
in Poland to commemorate
the 50th anniversary of the
liberation of the Auschwitz
concentration camp by Soviet
troops.
The bishops also admitted that
the Catholic Church was guilty
during the Third Reich of har-
boring anti-Semitic attitudes.
Because of the absence of
church leadership on the issue,
they said, many Christians failed
to show the necessary resistance
against the Nazis' racist ideolo-
gy•
Also in Germany, German
Chancellor Helmut Kohl honored
10 Germans who had dared to
mount a resistance to Adolf Hitler
during World War II.
Accompanied by members of
his Christian Democratic Party,
Mr. Kohl laid a wreath at the site
where the 10 were hanged from
meathooks for attempting to defy
Hitler's regime.
`These men were ready to sac-
rifice their lives for human dig-
nity and freedom," Mr. Kohl said
during a ceremony at the prison
where the 10 were executed.
"With their bravery, the 10
men we bow to today helped us
Germans find the way back to the
community of free peoples soon
after the war," he said.
The most prominent among
those executed on Jan. 23, 1945,
was Count Helmut James von
Moltke, who was the leader
of a resistance group of young
idealists known as the Kreisau
Circle.
Count Moltke, a jurist, was
known for his efforts to treat
POWs humanely. He was also
among those who drafted a plan
to establish a German democra-
cy after Hitler's overthrow.
In a separate development, the
German Greens Party expressed
support for a proposal calling for
the establishment of a special
Holocaust memorial day in Ger-
many.
The idea was introduced by
Michael Friedman, chairman of
the Frankfurt Jewish communi-
ty and a member of the presidi-
um of the Central Council of Jews
in Germany.
