BUTTER A GOOD FOOD

AS a food, butter contains two ele

other foods. First, its power to stimu
late growth, and second, it's power tc

this point Of view, it may be truthfully

BERLIN. Dec. 1s:-CBy Taylor)-
The conflict between the bolsheviki
and the Ebert-Haase government is
still undecided. The Liebknecht dem
onstration outside the feichstag build
ing is more serious than it appeared
to be at first. While there have been
no physical encounters, the attitude
of the soldiers forced Ebert to avert
the issue by adjourning the soldiers
council. If the radical continues to
grow, the present government may be
overthrow.
Major General Scheuch resigned as
war minister. owing to disagreements
concerning military policies. The
proposed insurgents meeting of the
reichstag has been called off The
excuse is given that the extension of
the armistice terms made the meet
ing unnecessary, but the action is re-
garded by some as a complete back
