Religious Ouster
The Latvian Government confiscated the St. Jacob Lutheran Church at Riga. It is destined to become the Cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archbishop.
The police of Riga had the keys when on a recent Sunday Lettish and German people turned up for service. Strong detachments of armed police guarded the Church. The Germans held their service in the cemetery. The Letts sang hymns in front of the police station.
