THINKS GERMANY NOT FAVOR BOLSHEVIKlSM
 IF PEOPLE ARE FED

LONDON, Dec. Bolseyiklsm will not come to Germany if there are food and work" declared Phil lipp Scheidemann. leader of the ma jority group of German socialists. He continued: "The temper Of Ger many is not Bolshevik and it cannot be made so, but famine may destroy resistance which has already been weakened seriously, and desperate people may follow the guidance or demagogues. If Germany should be- come Bolshevik in such circumstance es, that change of temper Of the people will constitute a serious men ace for other lands, for Bolshevikism will spread from our borders into all of Europe. This danger can be avert ed if we can eat. If America wishes to help Germany establish herself firmly on a democratic basis, saving us from the autocracy of an emperor or of the proletariat, you must get food to us without delay"
