Roman

In

deep

people
of
France
in
their
suffering.
They
were
going
through
experiences
similar
to
those
to
which
thc
British
people
had
been
subjected
when
tens
of
thousands
of
people
had
been
killed
and
thousands
of
churches
and
non-military
edifices
destroyed.
The
sufferings
were
a
prelude
to
the
day
when
France
would
be
liberated
and
free
again.
The
bishops
said
that
the
Royal
Air
Force
was
taking
every
possible
precaution
to
spare
civilians
and
religious
property.
