SOCIAL ORDER THREATENED
PRIVILEGED CLASSES WARNED.
By Telegraph—Tress Assn.—Copyright
Sydney, Jan. 29.
Speaking at All Saints’ Cathedral, Bathurst, Bishop Cratty said if the privileged classes failed to lead in things cultural and spiritual .it was most certain that forces in the universe would gather swiftly 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 befter 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.”
