add to cart   close window

The article discusses the political and religious condition of France. Recently Politician Edouard Herriot fell as Prime Minister of France in a debate upon financial policies. But most of the long attack upon him that culminated in this financial debate centered on the issue of secularization. At the outset of his term Herriot incurred the resentment of the powerful Catholic groups in France by announcing his intention to do away with the Embassy at the Vatican. Alsace, France is a Catholic country. It lives under the regime of the Napoleonic Concordat passed in 1850 and retained by the Germans. Herriot announced his intention of gradually assimilating Alsace to the secular regime of the rest of France.
