In recent times, there has been an increase in the number of complaints about the fact that church tracts and writings circulate in the country to a greater extent than ever before, and it is above all a matter of concern that this writing is repeatedly sent to the public and thus the fighting force is provided with an irresponsibly reading material that does not take into account the grisse of time in any way. It is true that there is a prohibition that civil intellectuals may not send such writings to the soldiers, under which also withdrawn letters are false. Likewise, restrictions have been made on paper-continuing and proof of the Chamber's obligation to publish in relation to the printing of this writing. However, it has been shown that the clergy have always found ways and means of doing so, and that the scriptures are still too far away.
