BERLIN, Jan. 11.-When the debate
on the anti-revolution bill was resumed
in the reichstag today Herr Won WalZ-
leglier, Polish member, criticised the
SocialiStlc conception of the functions
OF the state on the ground OF its lrrelig-
ious character. He declared that the
Polish workmen up to the present were
not affected by socialism, and urged
that the authorities IN strugglin i'll
defense of religion. morality and order
should treat the Poles as allies and
protect their nationality and religion.
Herr Won WaIslegler concluded by
declaring that the Poles regarded the
measure with serious miSgivings, as
they themselves had had frequent eX
periences iii regard to reform OF the law.
Herr Won Koelier, the minister of the
interior, denied that Die Freiheit was
in the pay of the police. The socialists,
he added, were agitating daily,
both in the press and at meet
ings, the glorification of crime, which
was on the increase. and even
revolution was openly eXtolled. AT
the socialistic congress at Altoona. Herr
Won Koeller contnued.a delegate named
uartwig said: "When the outbreak
comes, give me revolver, or even
bomb.' According to the minister Of
the interior. the present penal code did
not suffice for such otfenses. He con-
Guided with calling OH the various
parties TO unite for the protection of re-
ligion. Loud applause.]
Herr Won SonneDurg urged that in
creased protection be given to mill
tary discipline, as the army consti-
tuted the most etfectual
Barriers Against Socialists.
He was, however, afraid that any
further restriction Of the freedom
of the press might check justifa-
BILE criticism, and, in his opinion,
no obstacles should be placed
in the way of combating Judaism,
which, he insisted, was always largely
implicated in revolutionary proceedings.
He asked where the paragraphs III the
bill the laws needed to stop Jewish eX~
ploitation and improve the position OF
husbandry.
Won Hedenburg, on behalf of the
GueIphists, denied that revolutionary
movements could be overcome by elias
tic paragraphs. Stringent laws were
formerly passed in Hanover. but they
did not prevent revolutionary disturb
ances. Abiding to the annexation of
Hanover. the speaker declared that
Prince Bismarck had provoked the
greatest revolution. This remark elic-
tied storm of indignant protests.
Kroeber said that in Southern Ger
many only small fraction favored the
bill, adding:
you complain of the revival of par
ticularist tendencies, but if you wish
for peaceful development of South
Germany, you must reject the bill"
SigI, amid laughter. cried that if the
bill was adopted the opposition would
be condemned to death. He added:
You cannot fight an idea by leglsla-
ton. The present bill has contributed
to add $4,000 to the socialist votes III

if matters do not change l shall be
Socialist in five years time"
