DISBELIEF. AND INDULGENCE.
MENACE TO CIVILISATION. WARNING FROM BISHOP. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph Copyright.) (Australian Press Association.) SYDNEY, Jan. 29. Speaking at All Saints’. Cathedral, Bathurst, Bishop Oratty said if the „ privileged classes failed to lead in things cultural and spiritual it was most certain that forces in the universe would gather .sw fitly for their overthrow. Those at the bottom of the social ladder would rise and overthrow: the whole social order. This happened in Russia. “This civilisation of ours,’.’, he said, “cannot long continue to live with nothing better to hold it together than cynical disbelief, languid self-indulgence and half-disguised paganisms, which is all we get from, too many of the privileged classes to-day.’’
