Since this, however, Cardinal Liénart of Lille has published the text of Cardinal Verdier's pronouncement togther with the following express statement: “L'hebdomadaire Sept et La Vie Intellectuelle, dirigés par les RR. PP. Dominicains, ayant été. l'objet d'accusations aussi graves que tendancieuses de la part de cer-taines autres publications catholiques, S.-E. le Cardinal Verdier a fait paraître une note qui rappelle en terms très clairs la pensée de l'Eglise sur tels incidents, Le Cardinal Evêque de Lille fait sienne cette declaration”.
