PASTOR WARNS PRUSSIA OF FRENCH REVOLUTION (What’s Going on in Germany) REMEMBER FRENCH REVOLUTION Pastor Dr. Hibacher courageously explains some of the causes of what he calle an incipient rebellion, in t coturnns of the North Silesia Volks- stimme: “In the churches of the Leitmerits diocese, money is being actively col- lected toward the foundation of mis- sions for the people. “The high nobility in particular is displaying the greatest possible interest in the scheme, and very Syrup | property, too. The high nobility has good “inside” cleansing. Direc- tions for ba! children of all ages driven the prices of the commodities pro@uced on its lands to giddy heights never before dreamed of. Now, the people's missions are to in- duce the people to bear the burdens heaped on their shoulders by the with Christian patience. “If the nobility has ceased serv ing the general welfare, it has be- come a useless limb tn human socie ty, and fj il will either die trom sheer ina or it will be destroy- ed by revolution. “The nobility in Prussia should) make haste and learn the lesson of the French revolution.

We have voted between 25,000,000 and 37, 500,000 pounds of new taxes, but at the same time we have lost cus toms duties to the ‘amonnt of at }least 12,500,000 pounds.
