Nov. 2——(AP) — A young Catholic priest who has lust arrived hire says the Catholic clergy in France. always an im- portant political factor. is taking an increasingly important role in sabotaging the Nazi war fort even to the point of cooperating with communists. The priest is training with Unit- ed States officers in parachute companies. as he intends to return to his followers in France by Dara- cbute after he has completed con- ferenocs with the French commit- tee of liberation. The young priest. a leader of French resistance since i940. de- clared Catholic leaders no longer consider Vlchv the legal French uovrrnment and.are united with their congregations in sabotaging Nazi war efforts. Some priests. he relatxd. are assuming the leader- ship in various resistance groups an are working sincerely and wholeheartedly with Jews. Com- munists and other sections of the French pimple against the common enemy-Germany. I-lc said the resistance groups have organized underground orif- aniaations. aided able-bodied men w escape to Britain and North Af- rica. and helped vounsz Frenchmen evade the German labor draft by escorting them to gucrrlla hid/abuts in mountain wilderness spots where they carrv on active insurrection. Asked how. from a moral point of view Catholic priests regarded the destruction of a. fuctorv filled with workmen. he answered:- “The saboteur who hurls dyna- mite into e. factory does so under hie orders from his chief of the re- sistance movement. It is the same u a soldier who shoots his enemy. He is doing his duty." The Germans. the priest contin- ued. are conducting a subtle. in - rect persecution of the church. either themselves or through their ichv puppets. The Nazis. he said. l he church is too strong with ‘French people to be assailed directly. Like other recent fugitives from France. the priest gave the Com- runists great credit for leading re- tltanoa unlta and said they and so Catholics had been working in one co-operatlon despite the long nnding uu erences between the aurch and party doctrine. Many communists. he said are reneuncing their former antago- nism toward the church and reop- proohment is a definite possibility time when the badminton court in the Church of England Hall will Main be available.

Mr. Blon- din. when 34. over six feet tall and with a vigorous oratorical stvie which specially appealed to the masxs in the rural sections where lumbermen gathered. went vigor- ouslv to work with other young men of talent then also in the full viz- Ol of their years. such as Hon. Al- bert Sevicnyi now Chief Justice Seviilny). Hon. E. L. Patenaude. the late Armand Lavergne. nation- alist lieutenant of Henri Bourassa. and others. to defeat the Laurier government. then all powerful in Canada and specially in this pro- vince. Defeating Laurie: and spec- ially lowering his prestige in his native province was not easy of ac- complishment. but the Laurier armor had to be dented, and dent- ed badly in Quebec if there was to be a change of government at Ottawa. Circumstances favored the detcrmlnnd efforts the young band of French-Canadian speak- ers. Laurler launched a policy of a Canadian navy. and two somewhat obsolete ships were secured from the British Admiralty-the Niobp and the Rainbow-as a start for a. Canadian navv. It was dubbed a “tinpinte" navv. This was the 0p- portunitv to hand. and when the County of Drummond-Athabasca was open in a bv-election in i910. the Conservatives with their nation- alist allies. Bourassa and Lavcrgne plunged into the fight. and defeat- ed the Liberal government candi- date who incidentally was no less a personage than Hon. J.E. Per- rsult. latxr minister in the Tasch- ereau government for a. number of years and now a member on the Joint Waterways Commission. Young Blondin played a notable part in that frav. and was in full swim: the next vear when wcneral elections came. and the fight in the whole province was again on the Laurier navy. It was an effective cry. Laurirr went down to defeat. and Blondin was elected Deputy [Speaker of the House of C -when the Conservatives went into i office. He did not have long to wait for minlstnrial rank. for there were shifts in the Borden government in 1914 which gave oppartunitv for rising vounz men. and Blondin was considered one of them. He was sworn into the Privy Council Octob- er 20, i914. and re-elected bv accla- mation on assuming fice. The year after. October 5 1915. he was made Minister of Inland Revenue. then Secretary of S be. and changed portfolios again on Jan- uary 8. l9i7. when he became post- master-general. During those earlv years of the war. i914 to 1917. Blondin. Paten- aude and Sevignv spoke throughout the province on the obligations en- gendered by the war. In i917 Sev- igny took cabinet rank and had to face his e-ectors in Dorchester county in the month of Plzbruarv. a stirring ciapter of political his- torv in which Hon. Mr. Blondin took a leading part and shared in the victory. p Dissatisfaction became marked in the course of the year with the progress of recruiting in this pro- vince. and a decision was taken to 'forrh a French-Canadian brigade. (The late Mat-Gen. Lcssard came into the province to lead the re- cruiting campaign and Mr. Blon- din entered the army and started ;in to raise e. battalion among his .hamy woodsmen of Champlain iconnty. He hack-considerable suc- |oess. and took the battalion over- seas. but the government needed him home as the year ended. and he returned and resumed his post as postmaster-general. The anti-conscription wave swept the province in the general elec- tions of 1917. and Blonclin was de- feated in Champlain where he ran as government candidate and min- ister of the Borden government. When Sir Robert Borden returned to office at the head of a union gov- ernment after this election. there was not a single French-Canadian friendly to the government in the House of Commons. and Mr. Blon- din was transferred io the Senate and continued to serve as minister until the next general elections . Since that time Mr Bio . ndin had been livinlf quietly at his home at St. Francois du Lac. going to Ottawa to attend the sessions. and was spe- cially oecupied dllrlflk the five-year period of the Bennett government when he was speaker of the Senate. The te Senator Blondin was born December 14. i874 at St. ‘Pran- coia du Lac. son of Louis M. Blon- idin. French-Canadian nnd Elodie ‘Bernard. English-Canadian.
