Could Germany Revolt?

Periodically there come from over
seas stories prophesying n revolution
in Germany, which, somehow. never
comes to pass. Sometimes these turn
out to have been based on exagger-
ated reports of local labor distur-
bance which required more than the
local police force to quell; sometimes
they are part Of Teutonic peace
propaganda.
There Is at least something toler-
ably tangible in the latest report Of
this kind. General LupENpoRYF. hav-
ing heard that soldier of the
Rhineland had boosted that his COM
rades going home on leave were pre-
pairing for "a revolution which is to
break out after the war" by stealing
pistols and hand grenades. commands
all his superior officers to be on the
lookout for such attempts. He also
orders them IL they hear such OBJ
jectionable talk or hear Of it through
others" to deal with it lat once and
without hesitation"
Manifestly no revolution is going
to have chance to be born II Gen
eral LUDENDoRFF is in attendance.
Then there is the newly formed I'm
perial League for Combating Social
Democracy" whose members are
iunkers and rich owners of factories.
This organization, looking into the
future, discerns serious trouble over
labor conditions, the dissolution of
the Reichstag and the collapse of the
middle classes, possibly in the man.
ner in which the Bolsheviki brought
about the collapse Of the bourgeoisle
in Russia. However, the Imperial
League is not wholly discouraged. 1t
feels sure it can handle the malcon-
tents II only there is complete cohe-
sion in "the defensive war against
Social Democratic aggression" and a
proper fund to pay the expenses.
Is there material in Germany for
revolution? 1t may be true that
the military class and the land own
ers are uneasy as they look eastward.
But them Germany is not Russia. The
Hun is disciplined and Kultured. For
more than generation schools, uni
versities, churches, controlled by the
junkers and the military class as to
policies and practices, have told him
just what to think and just what to
avoid. "verboten" has been n sacred
word which he has obeyed He has
believed implicitly that the State was
everything and that he was merely
its humble vasSal.
Into the orderly consciousness of the
German mind many disturbing facts
may have crept lately, but it takes
long, very long, time for an idea
to dlsplace the habits of u lifetime,
and with many Germans it is obvi-
ously impossible that reason should
supplant blind obedience. Perhaps
the financial and Industrial collapse
which must follow military defeat
may bring about important political
and social changes. 1t Is to be hoped
for. rs only changes OF that nature
would make 1t possible to live COM
fortably in the same world with the
German. Even so, IL Is a trife hard
to believe that these changes would
come by revolution.
II there really Is any prospect Of
revolution the civilized world will
be In duty bound to pray for Its sue
cess. Meantime 1t is wiser to trust
in the strategy Of FoCH and the
might OF our troops on the western
front than In any regeneration of
Germany from inside.
