Metropolitan Antonius, president of the Russian Foreign Church Council, has left Belgrade for Jerusalem for the purpose of meeting there the Greek Catholic Patriarch to discuss with him the ways and means of preventing the Greek Catholic Church property from falling into the hands of the Bolsheviks, who would convert these buildings into centers of Communist propaganda in Palestine.
