Noske was a military man appointed by Ebert to neutralize the proletariat. Noske accomplished his task, at the cost of pushing Germany to a more radical position on the right: he set the scene for the NAZIs. The title here is significant: "Prost Noske! Das Proletariet ist entwaffnet" or ("Cheers Noske! The Proletariat is disarmed!") The dead bodies lie in the streets.
