In Munich she likes to lounge among the Barock madonnas that fill her pretty white villa on the fashionable Pienzenauerstrasse.

Top churchmen throughout East and West Germany protested, but they knew that in a real sense the sentence represented a victory for unbreakable Pastor Schmutzler. Said Hamburg University's Theologian Helmut Thielicke: "I know exactly what he will do now; he will pray for his enemies and become a source of life for his fellow prisoners . . .
