RULERS ABANDON THRONES Germany’s Plea for Food Will Be Granted by Allies—Mutiny of Fleet May Hamper Armistice—Pre dictions a6 to the Peace Conference. By EDWARD W. PICKARD. Fulling thrones uml fleeing kings and princes; u maelstrom of social revolu tion anil military mutiny ; soviets of the workers mid soldiers In control, mid former autocrats In hiding. That In brief Is the condition In cen tral Kurope, following the cessation of hostilities. How It will nil end not the wisest statesmen cau conjecture. Quick work by level-headed leaders nicy direct aright the great nioventVnt and bring out of the chaos orderly and tlrmlj grounded governments of and for the people. At present It seems that a favorite Jest has become a sober fact and that the big tusk now is to make democracy safe for the world. In Hermany the Socialists are estab lishing themselves under the leadership of their chancellor. Friedrich Ebert, a brainy and highly esteemed man. The several factions of the party appear to lie working in some harmony, and the bolshevik!, though yet In the de cided minority, have been given recog nition which is encouraging them to demand more. In Berlin, where the Herman republic was proclaimed, there lias been Intermittent fighting between the revolutionists and some officers and troops that remained loyal to the old i order, and in some other cities there were conflicts! but on the whole the change has been accomplished with re markably little violence. The leaders occupy the relebstag building In Berlin and are striving to put the itfTnlrs of In the allied countries there was a shrewd suspicion that the revolution was being fostered anti directed under cover hy the lenders of the old govern tuent in the hope that through It they might he spared some of the rigors of the pence settlement. Such. too. «nt the explanation of the establishment of « republic In Rnvnrln. and In Schles wig-Holstein, which states now say they will heroine parts of the new tier man republic. The man In the street and most of the newspapers, ill America. Rngland and France, did not at first look kindly on lV*rtor Solf's appeal to President Wilson that the allies take steps to save the people of Germany from star- j vatlon. H savored of Impudence. com- i lug from a representative of the pen- ! pie who starved Belgium. Serbia, I’o- j land and Rournnnin without a qualm of conscience. But the allied govern- j inents have looked at the matter In a different light, and. probably wisely, have determined to supply to the (ier 11111 us such food ns <*»iii he spared, not only for humanity** *nke hut on the j theory that order can t*e more quickly and easily restored among a well-fed people. If the excesses of the starving Russians were repeated In tiermany It might he difficult to carry out the terms of tin armistice. The feeding of hungry Germany, heconie* a cominon setise business proposition. Herbert O. Hoover already has sailed for IOurope to direct the distribution of food. The Socialists In control, though walling lit the "terrible harshness" of the armistice terms, declare they will do all they cun to obey them. On land this will not tie so hard, hut the naval situation has been complicated by the seizure of most of tile German fleet and of the fortlflisl Island of Helgoland by revolting sailors. These men saw, In llie surrender and dismantling of the war vessels, the end of their livelihood, so they took possession of the ships and sailed from some of the ports. Their future plan 'of action, If they have any, Is misty. When the allies are given possession of the land bat teries the warships ran be driven to sea, and there they can tie dealt with by the allied fleet. The abdication of the kaiser, the em peror of Austria and the rulers of mi nor states in central Europe, while doubtless of absorbing Interest to them selves, cannot be considered of great moment amid all the tremendous events that are taking place. These monarchs were but symbols of the or der that is passing, and even the kaiser already had lost most of his power. He, as William Hohenzollern. is now interned at tlie residence of his friend. Count Bentlnck, in Holland. Abdica tion was forced on him, but in fleslng from his country he showed the yellow streak. Compare his course with the really dignified exit of that other seek er ufter world domination. Napoleor The Dutch government pretended to be surprised and disconcerted by the arrival of William, but in reality it knew he was coming and nrrnnged for the event. There is a reisirt that (he former kaiser will eventually take up his residence in his palace on the island of Corfu. This presupposes that tlie allies will not take possession of his person and put him on trial for Ids monstrous crimes against civiliza tion. The Germans themselves might decide to do this, for there is on In sistent demand among them that such war leaders as Admiral von Tlrpitz, Major General Keltn, Admiral von HoltzendorfT and Dr. Wolfgang Knapp lie arrested and tried. Hlndenhurg and others of the army commanders have sought to evade such fate by sub mitting to the rule of the soldiers' councils. The former empress of Germany Is said to lie ill in Potsdam, and there are all kinds of rumors about the ex crown prince. Probably few care whether or not he lias been killed. 'Charles of Austria by abandoning his throne dodges the great task of i straightening out file affairs of the j countries that comprised his realm, j This will devolve on the peace confer ence. and doubtless will not be settled without many disputes over conflicting claims and aspirations. As was fore- j seen, tlie German part of Austria has elected to become a part of the new German state. There was greut rejoicing along the entire front in France and Belgium when the news spread of the signing of tlie armistice. Allies and German* alike cheered tile announcement and at once emerged from their trenches anil threw aside the caution to which long years of warfare laid accustomed them. Tlie retrograde movement of tlie Huns was accelerated In obedience to tlie terms of the armistice hut for several days the allied armies did not follow them. Then began their own advance Into tlie regions the enemy had been forced to evacuate. On Thursday It was announced that the Americans had crossed the frontier toward Metz and Strnsshurg. and that on Sunday Marshal Koch, commander In chief of tlie allied armies, would make formal entry Into those cities of Lorraine and Alsace In the presence of President Poincare and Premier t'lemencenu. In Brussels and other cities the Ger man soldiers got out of hand and were reported to be burning and pillaging. The allies' high command at once warned the German high command that unless this violation of the arm istice terms were stopped the allies , would take drastic steps. -fc It Is generally agreed now that the 1 world peace conference will nibet some- ! where In Kurope. probably in Ver j sallies. Whether or not President Wil son will attend is not settled. It has j been suggested that he he present at 1 the opening and then return home to attend to the vastly Imimrtmit domes tic problems that must be solved. Pos sibly America's representatives at the peace hoard will include Secretary Iain sing. Colonel House, Kllhu Knot and Justice Louis Brnndels. The proceed ings of the conference are sure to he protracted, and well informed corre spondents are amusing themselves and their readers by speculating on the conclusions that It will reach. Briefly, they predict that Germany will he com pelled to restore Alsace-Lorraine to France; that Luxemburg will he united to Belgium 1 that Poland will receive large additions, including part of I’rus sin with an outlet to the sea, ant] pnrts of Austria ; that Serbia will get Bosnia and Herzegovina; that Italy will re eelve the Trentlno, Trieste and most of Dalmatia; that a plebiscite may be taken to determine the desires of the Croats and Slovenes; that Ukrainln may get part of Galicia: that England Is to have Mesopotamia and France will take Syria, and thnt Palestine will become an Independent state. Among the many difficult things to be settled are the conflicting claims of Italy, Serbia and Greece; the status of Hie Arabs and of Armenia; the dis position of Constantinople and the const of Asia Minor, and the reduction of Bulgaria to the weakest of the Balkan states. It is expected that the peace confer ence will open In the latter part of December, after the English parlia mentary elections, and already the representatives of all the small na tionalities with grievances are gather ing In Paris. Many of the questions. It is understood, will be settled In ad vance by the entente |»owers and the Vnited States. Turkey is awaiting In dread the rep aration demands of the allies. Al ready the allied fleet has passed through the Dardanelles and dropped anchor off Constantinople. The men now in control in Turkey have accused Talent Pasha, former grand vizier; Enver Pasha, former minister of war, and PJeinel Pasha, former minister of marine, of embezzlement and other crimes, and those worthies have fled from the capital. Before the ink was <lry nil the armi stice agreement America began turn ing to the problem of getting back to a peace footing. Its solution will require the best work of our wisest minds. Tlie demobilization of the immense army will he gradual, and the men will be returned to civil life In the order of their importance In peaceful pur suits uud with proper regard to the ability of Industries to absorb them. The National Association of Manufac tures gives assurance that every man will find awaiting him the place he left when he went into the service, and there is little doubt that there will be work for all. Innumerable projects that were suspended owing to the de mands or the war will be resumed ut once, anil the demand for labor on these public and private enterprises will be enormous. The department of war put a sud den stop to the sending of drafted men to the army camps and notified' men between the ages of thirty-two and forty-six to return tlrir questionnaires unfilled. Tlie men below twenty-one now in the cMtips may be retained there for a time, for the training and possibly to replace some of those who already have seen service in Kurope. As for the army on tlie other side. It Is likely to be there for a good many mouths yet, for there will be a big Job of policing to be done. The navy and marines still are taking recruits. Their part In enforcing the armistice and peace terms will be a considerable one. If present plans are carried out. — ha — Many of the regulations to which we have grown accustomed in the past year and a half are being abandoned. Tlie final administration has suspend ed the rule requiring tlie use of wheat substitutes in baking and has Increased the sugar ration in some states, but at the same time emphasizes the ne cessity for continued conservation of all staple foodstuffs. Deferred build ing projects amounting to many mil lions of dollars were released by Chair nuin Iturudi of the war Industries laiard, anil many Industrial restric tions were removed. — Ite — The government's contracts for war materials are not to be cancelled abruptly, so the contractors will have time for readjustment. The people of America Hre being kept awake to the fact that with the near approach of peace their financial responsibility due to the war has not censed. At the present time they are called on to raise a huge War Work fund to be expended by the seven or ganizations whose work Is by no means ended. Then, early next year, there probably will be a fifth Liberty loan, for the nation's expenditures duo di rectly to the war must be enormous for a long time to come.
