Chita, Russia: The
local soviet closes every church, synagogue and shrine in this Siberian town after
10,000 people conduct a candlelight parade in sub-freezing weather to celebrate
“the death of religion.” The Godless One, official magazine of
the Moscow Godless League, responds to the news by urging Moscow to follow suit
quickly.
Paris: The government
of Prime Minister Andre Tardieu falls, only four months after taking
office. It was defeated in a
no-confidence vote on a minor issue, by a margin of only 5 votes. In addition to throwing French politics into
turmoil, this also threatens the London Naval Conference, at which Tardieu had
been leading France’s delegation.
