In demeanor Scheidemann appeared nervous, just as Eisner waa at the time a when he was stopping- here, but there S was a great difference between them in meeting people. When X approached 2 Eisner, In his hotel durina; the latter part of his stay in this country he eagerly dts- cussed his hopes for Germany and the German people. Ho openly attacked mil j itarisra and the world domination scheme, X expressing- the hope that the people of Bavaria would take , the first step to bring on a real peace of good will and understanding- between all the German people and the rest of the world. ' He also discussed, the socialistic pUiur-at length. t i When I approached Scheidemann he de- dared that he was surprised that his X whereabouts had been known in this city, and wanted to know how the information waa secured. He had come by automo- bile, and had asked that nothing be said about his visit. . Ha avoided speaking to anyone except those he has especially come her to . meet, and Ignored even Z soma Important men from Berlin, to a whom he merely, bowed In . recognition.

With a handful of work men, soldiers and off leers forced into the service the Hungarian army started on a venture Inspired more by foolhardl- ness. than good judgment. The neasanta. bouregois, communist clerks and towns people , did not Join the army. Only workmen, in the factories were caught In the militaristic dragnet and led into a war ao apparently futile that it is now a debacle and the dearly bought land la being abandoned to. tbe enemy. SACRIFICED FOR DICTATORS - Soldiers in the Red. array are asking themselves why they went into this fight and why their leaders, did not decide that it waa impossible for a few divisions to conquer the world. The Bed army Is awakening to the truth of tbe state of affairs in Hungary and today It realises that it haa been made to sacrifice itself for the sake . of a , few dictators. -. v During the - past weeks the. fighting has been severe and merciless as the fighting In the Balkan war. At first the Csechs, poorly armed, were' driven back easily. The Hungarian losses have been very high and surely "the Czech losses must-' be higher since the Czechs have no artillery. Instead of averting a new warthate has been propagated which will prevent real peace ' for. years to come. MILITARY ACTI03T KT DARK . Despite their statements of being op posed to secrecy the Bolshevlkl have kept everything relating to their military- action in the dark. The families of the soldiers know nothing about their killed or wounded Soldiers at the front receive few letters and no newspapers.
