Translation of minutes of Bavarian Bishops Conference
Sept. 10, 1924 Bavarian Bishops Conference minutes re blessing of political party flags:
In the official bulletins the clergy are to be most strongly bound by conscience to reject emphatically from the outset every request for joint masses with Protestants, from whichever side they may arise, and in no way to cooperate with them. The flags of political organizations are to receive no Church blessing. Since these two decrees have been made unanimously, petitioners cannot appeal to other Dioceses.
