The general successes Of the gov
srnment troops and the capture of the
Vorwaerts Building seemed to take
all Of the ambition out Of the Sparta
cans and it soon became very difficult
to find a group Of Spartacans OF any
considerable size. Berl was never
bombarded by aeroplanes during the
war and has never suffered from the
shells of big Bertha, yet. after the
lighting the capital showed more
marks of destruction than London or
Paris. There was hardly a building
in the center Of the city that was un-
touched by rife or machine gun bull
let's, and a rough estimate OF the
damage done TO property was easily
over 120 million marks. While there
