Memeler Volksstimme

Memeler Volksstimme ('People's Voice of Memel') was a socialist newspaper published from Memel (present-day Klaipėda, Lithuania). It was a mouthpiece of the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD).[1] The newspaper was launched in December 1919 as the organ of the Workers and Soldiers Council of Memel and the Free Trade Unions.[2] Erich Bührig was the editor of Memeler Volksstimme.[1]

In 1924 Memeler Volksstimme was replaced by Memelländische Volkszeitung.[3]
