Speaking over the Prague radio, one of the bishops declared that “we are opposed to the Vatican decree excommuni- cating persons for political rea- sons.” This statement, coming from a bishop, means that a schism has developed aimed ultimately at the setting up of a new Catholic body independent of Rome. It recalls the schism of 1920 when large numbers left the Catholic Church to form the Czechoslovak Church, w'hich now claims about a million adherents. In September, 1949, Father Plo- Jhar branded as false charges that government leaders were planning to organize a new church through the medium of a Catholic action organization which the regime had set up in defiance of ecclesiastical authorities who denounced the group as illegal and schismatic.
