map makers are celebrating in Paris
Bolshevism continues to spread. The
announcement Of the establishment Of
A Communist government in Hungary
has awakened hope among the German
Spartacans. who recently were sup
pressed with an iron hand by Gustav
Noske, Minister OF Defence, and a cor

Ministers is reported to have said: III
the worst comes to the worst we will do
what Karoyl provisional President of
the Hungarian repubicl did pull the
bars and let the red food In and let the
Entente see how II can check IT."
There is also hope and belief in these
circles that the Hungarian situation will
result to the profit OF Germany, as one
official expressed 1T, bringing the Allies
to reason"
