London, Dec. .. - Revolutionary
spirit again is rampant in Berlin,
where, says an Amsterdam despatch,
the soldiers council proposes a thor
ough exposure of the hideOUs work
ings of autocracy.
The federal states council, repre-.
senting the Ebert moderate faction,
has mounted machine guns to sweep
the Under den Linden and other stra-
tegic points Of the city. Berlin seems
on the brink of another upheaval. The
city seethes with wild rumorS of an
impending coup by the crown prince
or another Bolshevist blow. no one
knows which.
Seizure Of all documents relating to
foreign affairs and the old government
system has been ordered by the work
mems and soldiers council, which de-
mandS the most speedy retirement of
DR.. w. s. Solff, the foreign secretary.
A Berlin despatch sent by way of
Amsterdam says the German govern
ment has proposed to the entente ma
lions that the question of whNe-4xsaS'
-
responsible for the war be examined
by a neutral commission If the ex-
animation of foreign office records and
other state documents parallels the
Munich disclosures resulting from in
vestigation of Austro-Hungarian Sc
cret papers it will cause a political
earthquake among the elements of the
old order now remaining with the new
regime in Germany 1t is said several
thousand employees of the imperial
government still hold positions under
the Ebert-soldiers' council govern
ment
The proposal for an investigation
into the responsibility for the war is
contained in a note sent to SwitZer-
land for transmission to France, Great
Britain, Italy and the United States.
1t asks that all the billigerents place
their secret documents at the disposal

Music's Proper Sphere.

Music is more than an art; it is an
instinct. Beneath the savage's prim-
tive delight in the tom tom and the
muSician's intellectual enjoyment of
Bach fugue, is the same underlying
principle-a spontaneous love of
rhythm and the desire to express it. To
create exquisite harmonies is the heav-
en-born gift of genius-the divine heri-
tage of one man in a thousand. To
interpret another's work is a talent,
developed only by years of Lard work
md Infinite patience. To listel i the
perfect Interpretation of great COM
poser Is q blessed privilege.

Inquiry.
WASHINGTON, Dec 2.-Eor Il hundred
DAYS more the newspapers Of the land
will be printing American casualty
lists.
The growth in casualties has shock
ed the people of til" United States.
They believe THAT The casualty lists
were only few weeks delayed. Then
came The announcement by General
March that the totals would be 2G0,-
600.
What is worse, Washington admits
thar the totals are very likely to be
increased beyond the present figures.
How much higher they will go no per
son seems to know, but the fact that
the daily lists at present carry about
1000 names and the announcement
that the lists will be published for 100
days more combine To make discon-
certinS situation.
1t is possible that the losses during
the closing weeks of the fighting on
the American fronts. particularly in
the ArgOnne, were heavier than the
public had reason To expect. Return
ed soldiers who arrived at Camp
Meade declare that in the engagement
at Montfaucon the Seventyninth di-
vision PENNSYLVANIA troops) lost eiev-
en- out of twelve majors.
As matters stand right now, the ma
ton must prepare itself to hear the

greeS).

A protest has gone up from the
fathers and mothers and wives of our
soldiers. 1t is n protest from the
homes in cities and villages and farm
lands. 1t is a protest against state
of affairs apparently ineXcusable. 1t
is a protest against unreasonable de-
lay in announcing casualties, and it is
a protest against the seeming indiffer-
ence of the administration.
The protest has reached congress,
and there will be started in the SEN
ate an inveS;g cation of the whole situ-
alton.
There is not Il senator or member of
the house but has received many tele-
grams and letters of inquiry. Some of
the communications show deep anger,
but the most of them are the plead
ingS of loved ones for information

These letters have aroused congress,
and Senator Hitchcock, acting chair
man of the senate military affairs
committee, declared that no time
would be lost in the investigation.
There were millions who rejoiced
at the signing Of the armistice, be-
cause to them 1t meant that there
would be no more slain and no more
wounded and in a few weeks the
names of those who had already paid
the price would be printed But days
went by, and the only news that the
administration had TO give the fami-
lies Of the soldiers was that the casu-
atty lists would be delayed
Then came hints from France that
the story of the American losses
would be bad reading Men returning
to this country brought back warnings
to the public to get ready for heavy
casualties.

Ee was carried to one of the local
hospitals where he died few days
