The Communist parlitmentary group proposed te remove this sub- | ject from the agenda, and to discuss the bank swindle instead. | The story of the great banking si {dal of Germany will be found on |page 3 of this issue of the Daily Worker.—Editor). The Communist demand was re- jected by the combined vote of the socialist with the other capitalist parties, and the Communist mem- ber, Comrade Pieck, spoke against the Severing law, comparing it to | the anti-socialist law of Bismarck, Severing attempted to defend the | bill, but a storm of denunciation broke loose from the parliamentary members and from the public galle which was so tempestuous that Severing’s speech | | was prevented.
