 ~Citizens: The chancellor, Prince MaximiIan of Baden, in agreement with all the secretaries of state, has handed over to me the task of Iiquidatins his affairs as zchancellor. am on the point of forming a new government in ac- pcordsnee with the various parties, ssand will keep public opinion freely informed of the course of events. "The new government will be a government of the people. It must make every effort to secure in the quickest possible time, peace for the German people and consolidate the liberty which they have won.
 To Save From Famine
 "The new government has taken charge of the administration, to preserve the German people from civil war and famine, and to ac- complish their legitimate claim to autonomy. The government can solve this problem only if all the of fieials in town and country will help.
 "l know it will be difficult for some to work with the new men who have taken charge of the em- pire, but ] appeal to their love of the people. Lack of organization would in this heavy time, mean an- archy in Germany and the surren- der of the country to tremendous misery. Therefore, help your na- tive committee with fearless, inde- fatigable work for the future. EV- eryone at his post.
 Demands Support of All
 ''I demand eVeryone's support in the hard task awaiting us. You know how seriously the war has menaeed the provisioning of the people, which is the first condition of the peoples existence. The po- litical transformation should not trouble the people; the food supply is the first duty of all, whether in town or country, and they should not embarrass, but rather aid the production of food supplies and their transport to the towns.
 Food shortage signifies pillage and robbery, with great misery. The people will suffer the most snd the industrial worker will be affected hardest. All who iIlicitly lay hands on food supplies or other supplies of prime necessity, or the means of transport necessary for their distribution, will be guilty to the highest degree towards the community.
 q ask you immediately to leave the streets and remain orderly and calm."
