u. On November Germany, lacking any firm hand bereft of all will, robbed of her princes, collapsed like a house or cards. All that he had lived for, all that we had bled four long years to maintain, was gone. We no longer had a native land of which we might be proud. Order in state and society van ished. All authority disappeared
 Chaos, BOlshevism, terror, un-Ger- man in name and nature, made their entry into the German fatherland. Soldiers and workmen's councils, pre- pared in long, systematic underground work, were now established. Men had worked at this who might by service at the front have secured n successful issue of the war, but who, classified at Tit for garrison duty only, ranked as indispensable, or who had deserted.
 The bulk of the troops in depots, in whom the idea of revolt had long been gaining ground went oliver to the side of the revolutionaries.

 The line of communication troops, including those stationed in the occu- pied territories, both in east and west, among whom also preparations had no doubt been made for the revolution lost all discipline and order, and streamed home in wild confusion plundering as they went.

On the fighting front in the west, soldiers councils with approval from high quarters. could not be formed fast enough.

 Ludendorfrs strategy in his drives was pincers movement from Cambrai on the south and Ypres on the north which would have pinned the British army against the sea and finally force the sur render of all except the few who could be removed on ships.
 Foch could not drive the Germans back OH the sea, but another great barrier of nature offered him similar opportunity. In the southeastern corner of Belgium and Luxemburg is great forest region, covering rough hills.

 So Foch set out to cut these arteries behind the main German forces. While the French and some Americans pounded away at the center to make retreat diff cult and costly, and so hold the Ger mans. the British and main American forces were set to work to close the pincers on the Hanks.

RABBI WISE
 STANDS PAT
 ON LABOR VIEW
Assails Judge Gary Again and
 Says He'll Quit Pulpit Rather Than Retract.
OPPOSED TO BOLSHEVISM
Says Some Members of His Own Flock Are Creators of This
 Moderation.

New York, Oct 17.-If "any con siderable number of members of the Free Synagogue of which Dr. Stephen s. Wise is Rabbi thinks that Dr. WiSe's espousal of the cause of union labor and his denunciations from his pulpit of Ebert H. Gary renders his retention as head of the Free Synagogue undesir- able, the outspoken rabbi wants to know it at once.
 Thus assured, he told his congrega- ton, he will resign. Furthermore, if it is proved to him that his attacks upon Judge Gary and his championings of the right of labor to bargain collective 1y have brought Jews into disrepute or if he is to be subjected to any sort of a gag-mi1d or otherwise-he will resign from the ministry altogether and take himself off to some place and some other field of endeavor, where he may and will talk along lines dictated by his conscience.
 These statements Dr. Wise set forth in his sermon to his congregation in Carnegie Hall. He talked even plainer than usual. He left nothing to the i'm agination He disavowed and excor- lated bolshevism. He declared that in his congregation of HOO Jews, all of whom were not present, there were some who blushed for his economic the
The Connecticut labor press., 1919-10-18

ories He said that already he had re- ceived seven letters more or less out spoken in their demand that he quit his pulpit. Then he declared that there were those listening to him who were opposed to his economic creed because they were afraid of trade unionism and loked for Judge Gary to fight their fight for them.
 Seldom has Dr. Wise spoken to a larger audience. Some of the most in- fluential Jews in New York were pres ent. Likewise a full hundred employ CTS of clothing makers and other needle work trades listened. Several labor leaders were in the congregation.
 If there were any present who thought that Dr. Wise was going to de- part from his anti-Gary position, either by word or absence of word, they were mistaken. The rabbi not only repeated his statement of last Sunday that Judge Gary and his associates i'll the United States Steel Corporation were among "the most prolific breeders of bolshe- vism in the United States" but added that there were those listening to him who were quite as dangerous.
 Just what Dr. Wise will do if he re- SlSllS ICIIId1LlS LO OS o%NAA' AAN "c~o asked whether, in such an event, he would actively associate himself with the American Federation of Labor. Likewise he was asked whether, resign or not, he would now go to the steel fields and make speeches to the strikers.
 'I'd rather not discuss that at pres ent," he replied
 It is evident from the tone of Dr. Wise's sermon that the letters of pro- test he has received charge him with injurirg the character of the Jewish people, for he said:
 Were I persuaded that right or wrong, true or false, my word would permanently and irremediab1y hurt my people, I would not be silent but would instantly take myself out of the Jewish pulpit I am ready today to make the test I offer my congregation the priv i1ege of passing upon the question whether I ought to remain as their leader and continue to be free to speak as I have spoken. 1 shall not be of tended by any action which my people may choose to take.
