THE SAAR

GOVERNMENT OF THE FUTURE NAZI ACTIVITIES Prcsj Association—By Telegraph—Copyright PARIS, September 6. (Received September 7, at 11.30 a.m.) Herr Burckel, who from beyond the frontier directs the Nazi activities in the Saar, circularised Nazi officials there, declaring that the watchwords were “perfect, discipline and blind obedience.’’ The Nazis were urged not to discuss the 1935 plebiscite in connection with the future government of the Saar, as the result might be gravely, compromised by giving their adversaries a pretext for undesirable measures. [According to paragraph 49 of the Treaty of Versailles the Saar Basin was placed under the control of the League of Nations. In 1935 the population shall decide by plebiscite what nationality they desire. Meanwhile the district is governed by a commission of five nominated by the League, of whom one is French, one resident of the Saar, and three others. 'There is also a Landesrat of thirty members, which cooperates with the Government in an advisory capacity.] NAZI CHURCH PARTY UPROAR IN SYNOD, BERLIN, September 6. (Received September 7, at 11.5 a.m.) Because it gave a full report of the Church Synod dissensions at yesterday’s meeting, which ended in an uproar on the Nazi Church Party jeering at a section of delegates headed by Pastor Koch, who opposed a plan for altering the Constitution, the authorities confiscated the whole of this morning’s issue of the ‘ Berliner Tageblatt.’ After Pastor Koch and his followers had left the Synod the Nazis passed a resolution that pastors should be dismissed unless they supported the Government whole-heartedly and were of Aryan descent.
