BROKEN GERMANY.

PREMIER’S TEARFUL

SPEECH.

PEOPLE’S FUTURE TASKS.

WEIMAR, WEDNESDAY.

To-day’s sitting of the German National Assembly was opened by

the President, Herr Fehrenbach, at 10.25 a.m. At the Government

table were Herr Bauer, the Premier; Herr Mueller, Minister for

Foreign Affairs; Herr Noske, Minister of Defence; Herr Erzberger,

Vice-Premier and Minister of Finance; Herr Schmidt, Minister of

Food; and Herr Schlicke, Minister of Labour. In the course of a

speech, Herr Bauer said:

A fortnight ago, under compulsion of the world situation, you

ratified the Peace Treaty. An epoch is thereby closed which

saw Germany’s tremendous rise and her tragic collapse.

Those, too, who in the old empire were in sharpest opposi-

tion have at this moment to say farewell to much that was

dear to them. But life goes on. Even the pain of farewell must

for everyone be a spur to put both hands to the task which

to-day embodies the future, namely, the fulfilment, the dis-

charge, and, finally, the revision of the Treaty of Versailles.

The work of the German people must now be the fulfilment

of the Treaty and the rebuilding of the broken German

people, which in new Germany determines its own fate and

whose will is the highest law. Eight months have since

passed, for the most part devoted to the work of clearing up,

but also to the fitting up of a new State edifice which you, by

passing the new constitution, will consummate.

The Democratic Republic is thus securely housed. The German

National Assembly has thereby fulfilled the first part of its task. It

deserves to be remembered that the members of the extreme

Right have utilised precisely this moment which carries the

Hohenzollern empire to its grave, to proclaim the restoration of

the Hohenzollern monarchy as the first item of their programme.

That they make the Revolutionary Government responsible for

this peace after Kaiserdom in its unhappy blindness of power had

lost the war – all that is nothing new to us. We are armed for battle.

But the members of the Right have once more misread the

signs of the times, just as they have misread them for seventy

years. In the year 1848, in St. Paul’s Church, Ludwig Uhland

uttered words which the members of the Right ought to have

taken for their guidance. “No head,” he said, “will shine over

Germany which is not anointed with a little democratic oint-

ment.” Followed in time, these words might perhaps have

changed the course of events. Democracy today raises itself

and shines over the new republic whose constitution opens

with these words: “The German people, united in its tribes

and inspired by the will to renew and to strengthen its realm

in liberty and justice, to serve peace at home and abroad, and

to promote social progress, has given itself this constitution.”

A PURE DEMOCRACY.

We must create and develop those powers in the people that shall

give life to the democracy which has so far only existed on paper.

This creation and development must begin where the real man

begins, namely in the school, in education.

Criticising the Independents’ policy, Herr Bauer declared,

“with the overwhelming majority of the nation, we most

emphatically reject any dictatorship as brutal, senseless, and

inexpedient”. The Premier then warned against an over-

hasty revolution, which would only lead to the destruction of

the economic foundations of the whole community, and in

the end to a counter-revolution. – Reuter.
