Goods of incalculable value were lost The proud German Army, after resisting victoriously thetr supertor enemies for four years, achieving feats of unprecedented greatness and keeping our enemies clear away from our frontiers, disappeared in a moment. Our victorious fleet was handed over to the enemy. The authorities at home, who had not fought against the enemy, could not hurry fast enough to pardon de serters and other military criminals. including in part among these themeelves and their nearest friends. They and the soldier's councils worked with seal, determination and purpe to destroy everything mill tary This was the gratitude of the newly-formed homeland to the Ger man soldiers who had bled and died for it in millions.

A tidal wave had) broken over Germany, not by the foree of nature, but thru the weak. ness of the government represented by the chancellor and the crippling of @ leaderiows people.

That is the first commandment. Love of home, love of the daily task, devotion to work and tireless energy in creation, in dustrions labor, free activity for our economic life, coupled with consideration for one's neighbor. the cooperation in full confidence of rich and poor, of hand and head, in the same duty to work, and freedom for honorable work, are the basis of German wealth and the con- dition of our revival, That is our second commandment. Devoted to duty, honest and fincere, and in full courage must the German work once more, and moral earnest must | be his guide; that ts the third commandment The saying of Fichte, that to be a German and to have character are syn- onymous beyond controversy, must again become the truth Only so can we recover our self-respect, which alone can win us that of others, “Learn Again to Be Germans” In national character and educa }tlon, in German work, in hard Ia-| bor, and in human dignity, looking bare and disconsolate future, so and) so alone will the Germans find] themselves again, Such action will help us once again to win ourselves| @ country, and to fill ourselves a/ country, and to fill oursetves with| the old selfless patriotism, which| gives us strength to live—and, if} |fate demands, to die as the heroes of this great struggle have died | for our ideals, for all that is Ger many, for the prosperity and secur-| ity of our German home, and for her restoration to strength In the four war years our people did mighty deeds, an eloquent testi |mony to their indwelling strength |that today has been destroyed by the revolution.
