COMMUNISM NOW IN BADEN;; BIG
 STRIKES AHEAD

VIENNA. April l1.--(R-The revo. lutionary movement which has spread turnout Bavaria and sue. ceeded in establishing a soviet gov. ernment in Munich is now showing up in Baden. according to reports received here. The attitude of the workers there is threatening.
 Many of the soviet agents sent out from Bavaria are working in Baden at the present time and serious trouble is expected to appear at any minute. Large numbers of agitators are working in Karlsruhe. Mannheim and other large Baden towns.
 German Austria is also coming largely under the influence of the establishment of soviet governments at Munich and Budapest. The re- suit of this is telling more and more here as the agents for the two newly established governments become more numerous. Employees all over Ger. man Austria are boldly demanding higher wages and shorter hours. Unless radical steps are taken in the immediate future there will un. doubtedly be many strikes accom- panied by serious disorders which may upset the present republican authorities and defeat the soldiers and workers councils for the estab. lishment of socialist form of gov. ernment.
