GERMANS WANT CHANGE;
ENOUGH OF BLOODSHED

smacking of war, and don't want to
have to resort to bloodshed to obtain
their aims.
over against what the workingman,
the intellectual or radical may think,
of course there lies the class which
want to cling to the doctrines and
customs of the past. Naturally, this
class wants to avoid bolshevism-in
the commonly accepted version OF
that institution. And, it's efforts mani
testify tend toward keeping in check,
a revolutionary spirit that could con
ceivably wipe out the capitalistic sys-
tenn.
In a nutshell, however, the situa-
ton as it appears to careful students
is this: Germany wants a new deal
industrially and otherwise and is
tendin gtoward it all the time; but
the majority want it without the eco
nomic stagnation and general turmoil
that marked bolshevism's birth in
Russia.

something else instead. That is al

BY CARL D. GRoAT

Omitted Press Staff Coresponden)
Berlin, June 19.--( (By maiD will
Germany go bolshevist? This is a
question one hears frequently in the
United States, along with an ex
pressed doubt that such an outcome
win result from her present condi-
tion.
The answer here is the sameit is
doubtful If Germany goes to the ex-
tremes to which Russian bolshevists
did, but that further changes in the
social, political and industrial struc-
ture can and may be effected is
granted by the keenest observers.
But, by and large, the German has
been too long accustomed ito taking
orders, to leading an ordered quiet
life, to suddenly burst out into the
extreme of bolshevism. On the other
hand, however, there is a possibility
that socialism more far reaching
than anything this country has so far
experienced, will come to pass
The radicals, verging on bolshev-
ism, want to see capitalism done
away with, and are anxious to have
socialism installed which will make
the gulf between classes les marked
than now. However, they believe in
effecting this gradually and without
bloodshed and rioting. They do not
claim that the SOVIET system must
necessarily be installed, but they do
contend that the old order of things
ought to end and they complain that
too much of the "kaiserIich system
has been retained
Industry has undergone some
changes since the revolution, but
these reorganizations do not reach
into the political system. For in
stance, in each factory or mercantile
establishment there is a "Betriebs
rat or council, which decides the
iindustrial problems of that particu-
lar place. The betriebsrat is a sort
of union within a union. The yari-
Gus trades still have their general
unions, but in addition these councils
govern each particular establishment
without regard to the crafts EN-
ployed.
These councils do not participate
in politics directly, but it is conceiv-
able that from this system there may
Latter arise a plan more or less like
The Russian workmens and soldiers
or soivets.
However, the general feeling here
is that eventually peace will come,
and that with the re-establishment of
normal times, Germany will lose
much of the ferment which has mark
I'd her recent days, and that she will
gladly get back to work on a sane
basis.
But, the sanity of this basis, as the
here sees it, lies in Civ
ng him greater share in the good {
hings of life than he has ever had
before, with fewer working hours and t
'etter pay than he had under the
egime of pre-war days. He isn't es- |
'eeially anxious as to the method
Whereby this comes, though it is fair
say that as a mass, the German
eople are tired of war, and things
