GERMAN GOVERNMENT
STILL BUREAUCRATIC
Dr. Alonzo z. Taylor, American Investi-
gator, Believes 1t Would Be Easy
to Restore Militarism.

Paris, Feb, 81 (By the Associated
Press The German government is the
same bureaucratic regime Of the kaiser's
day, with the same attitude toward labor
and capital. and q es not represent the
forces which caused the revolution" says
Dr. Alonzo E. Taylor. food specialist, who
has lust returned from Germany, where
he made extensive Investigations in be
half of the supreme food relief council.
Count Won Bernstorf is in charge of
American affairs at the foreign Office, and
the bureaucrats of the old school are in
evidence everywhere he added. The
Germans are becoming RlIssianized They
are afraid to put untried men into the
service, and consequently they tolerate
the old order OF things
German propagandists, DR.. Taylor
found, favor the league of nations and
are filling the newspapers with articles
saying President Wilson's doctrines
should be considered as having become
effective on the day the armistice was
signed and should have been interpreted
as leaving Alsace and Lorraine in Ger
man hands.
The German army has apparently been
disorganized and demobilized. for the
most part, DR.. Taylo, says but he be-
lieyes it will be possible for a well-oT-
gained Bureaucracy to restore militar-
ism if it is deemed desirable. Many Ger
mans believe they will recover their bat
tleships and merchant fleet and do not
expect to give up any territory, and, in
DR.. ~Taylor's opinion, grave political
upheaval is probable with the signing of
the treaty of peace.
The present hull is regarded as unnat-
ural by DR.. Taylor, who says it was pos
sibly created by the payment Of large in
IDENTITIES to unemployed persons and by
suspending action on all questions vital
to the future of the nation. Unemployed
men in Berlin are paid eight marks a day,
while railway workers and street clean
ers get only six marks daily. Consequent
| ly, the men prefer to remain idle.
Plays so immoral that they would have
been prohibited under the imperial re-
gime now are tolerated; thieving is prev
alent; looting is common, and the gen
eral public morale is very low, DR.. Taylor
remarks. He says the food situation is
critical, and that in spite of the great re.
duction made in rations the nation can
not live until next harvest unless sup
piled by outside powers, The death rate
has increased, especially among children
between five and Is years of age, chill
dren under two years faring better than
the rest through the self sacrifice of their
mothers. Lack of fuel and raw materials
has closed virtually all industries, and
the railroads are hampered because they
have little coal Labor conditions are so
bad at the coal mines that there is little
prospect of an increase in the fuel output.
