MEN SIT IN BATHTUBS
ANDENJOY FILM SHOW
Oddly Provided by Y. M. G. A. at
Hospital Where Wounded From
France Get Water Treatment.

LONDON, December 6 Correspond
ence of the Associated Press).-A
moving picture audience in bathtubs,
through which warm water flows, Is
the entertainment oddly provided in
film shows by the American Y. M. c.
A. at the hospital under the shadows
of Kings College. Cambridge, where
wounded men from France are
treated. In one ward certain of the
patients who have had very serious
septic wounds are having the water
treatment.
To look at these men you might
think they were lying comfortably in
bed, propped up with pillows. They
are really sitting in bathtubs, in wa
ter to their waists. A constant
stream of water with a temperature
of 9S is kept running through the tub,
purifying and cleansing the wounds,
which have no other dressing. A kind
of magnified lapboard covers the top
of the tub, and is, in turn, covered by
long, bright patch quilt. And there
the men sit on air cushions, leaning
against air pillows, day and night,
some ines for weeks at time. Only
the most serious cases are put into
these baths, men who otherwise have
little chance of recovery and none
without the amputation of a limb. But
never yet has a case SO treated been
lost.
It's beastly uncomfortable the first
week" said the record case of the
ward. a British Tommy. who was for
eleven weeks in the bath. Your legs
ache and you have the water rash.
But in week, at most. you get over
that, and then it is more comfortable
than being in bed. In fact, after
they put you back in bed you can't
sleep for a while, it's so hard
The American Y. M. C. A. has been
sending these men movies" twice a
week. A screen has been arranged at
one end of the hut, and there all the
screen favorites play their parts, while
the men sit comfortably in their
warm tubs. And when the show is
over all they have to do is to turn out
the lights and go to sleep.

GERMAN FACTIONS
TESTING STRENGTH
Three Distinct Parties, In
gliding BoIsheviki, Com
Il ::::pete for Supremacy.

LONDON, December 10 Correspond
ence-of the Associated Press).-Some
light, on the muddled political situa-
tion,,in Germany may be gained by
analysis of the revolutionary forces
DOW at work.
'"There are three distinct parties con-
testing for supremacy. the socia,
democrats. the Independent socialists
and the Spartacus. or bolshevist. group.
The social democrats are the old
Scheidemann party. Throughout the
war they worked hand-in hand with
the so-called middle class" non-so-
eialist parties. When the revolution
occurred they wished to continue this
cooperation and establish a coalition
government representing the old
reichstag coalition majority. They
may be called the extreme right" or
conservative element of the revolu-
tionary movement.
q; Compromise With Rivals.
But owing to the opposition their
program encountered compromise
was, made with their chief rivals. the
independent socialists. led by Hugo
Haase. Georg Ledebour and Carl Kaut-
sky. The independents oppose CO.
operation with non-Socialists. but they
nave consented in their agreement
with the social democrats to make
the establishment of q socialist state
dependent upon a straight vote of the
majority of the people. Like the social
democrats, they are in favor of con-
stitutional procedure. They may be
termed the center" party.
Mysterious Spartacus Group.
The extreme left" is the mysterious
SpattacuS group formed in the fall
Of 1916. 1t gets its name from anony-
NOUS political letters signed Spar
tacus," which were sent out by Karl
Liebknecht for the personal infor-
mia ton of the radical element among
the SPECIAL democrats. These letters
first distributed in 1915. took the form
a. year later of an Illegal, secretly
published periodical bearing the name
"Spartacus." 1t denounces both the
social democrats and the independent
socialists. The aim of the Spartacus
group is to put an end to the capt.
talist system. Liebknecht and its
other leaders are said to be trying to
bring about a dictatorship of the pro-
fetariat by force of arms The group
is the German equivalent of the Rus
Sian bolshevists.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1918-12-19
Other Radical Organizations.

More or less allied with the Spar
tacists are the two other extremely
radical groups, the .internationals"
and the international socialists of
Germany. The "internationals," named
after a publication which the party
Organizers tried to start in 1915, is
led by Franz Mehring. a we'll known
publicist and by two women, both
orators and writers. Rosa Luxem-
bourg and klara Zetkin. Julian Bor-
chard is believed to be the leader OF
the international socialists of Ger
many" but the group has not figured
apparently in the revolution up to this
time.

PARIS, December 5.-Not many for

Hflereupon he shrugged his shoulders,
commenting philosophically. "Oh. well,
easy come. easy 60"
The new type of Yankee enlisted
man isn't like that. He is a saving
young man and he sends a good share
OF his earnings home to help out his
wife or any other partial dependents
that he may leave. In fact, he sends
back as much money as he spends on
himself. if figures from Y. NJ. G. A.
finances reports may be taken as a
criterion. And they ought to be con-
sidered a fair indication of the way
the pay goes.
Makes Allotment of Pay.
In the first place the private makes
an allotment of half his base pay by
government order if he has any one
at home that needs it. And if he
hasn't the government takes it and
saves it for him. With very few ex-
ceptions, he also Is the holder of a
government insurance policy, which
takes another bite out of his earnings.
By the time his allotment and his in
surance payments have been deducted
there isn't a great deal left. Yet from
this little he manages to save what
In the aggregate amounts to a vast
sum.

ffgufes are available in one Y. NJ. c. A.

In...t the other hut the amount of

angle Taking the five huts as a
whole. the difference in favor of the
remHtances was more than $4,000
FRANCS for the month. One of the
hutSs the one whose business in all
depiftments was the biggest of the
fve,s .sent to America almost three
times as much money as it received
