~ Freie Männer - keine Knechte ~
 
The verse on this glass stein could be socialist or in tune with our Civil War theme depending on the times, but seems to be the theme song of the singing choir "Monachia" from Munich, ca. 1929.
 
Freie Männer - keine Knechte,
für alle Menschen gleiche Rechte,
wahr im Tun, kurz im Wort,
treu dem Lied immerfort.
Free men - no slaves,
for all humanity equal rights,
sincere in deed, brief in word,
true to the song forever.
