l. ". ". RECRUIT
 EX-SERY!CE MEN
TRY TO RECRUIT FORMER SER. VICE MEN WHO ARE DlS-
 CONTENTED.

Washington. - Representative of the American Legion, presenting to the House Ways and Means Commit tee a revised optional plan fer soldier relief, charged that agitators were trying to recruit into the I. w. w. for mer service men who were disco.: tented because of the failure of Con gress to provide aid.
 J. E. Holden, adjustant of the Utah legion, testified that organized prop aganda to discredit government aid and undermine the American Legion was being disseminated by the I. w W. throughout the country. While some soldiers had been misled into joining that organization the rank and file, he said, stood firm against such influences.
 Urging immediate relief, J. G. Scrugham of Nevada, a member of the Executive Committee of the Legion. declared there was "seething unrest among former service men and wom en, who felt they had not received a square deal.''
 Holden told the committee that while partially disabled and in hos pitals, attractive young women gave him I. W. W. literature, which said the government had protected muni. ton workers, war contractors and others from great losses, but had done nothing for former service men. These pamphlets urged eX service men to join the I. w w.
 Tn Chicago the I. w. w. claims to have 20 per cent of the service men of that locality in their organiza tions," Holden said. "In the Utah nining camps the 1. W. w. outnum Der the former service men six tc one and are making vigorous efforts. to wipe out legion organizations"
 4 new plan for soldier relief, em bracing provisions for land settle iaent,, home building aid, vocational training and payment of adjusted com pelisation was offered by legion rep rcsentatives.

BAUER CABINET IN
 GERMANY RESIGNS
HERMANN MUELLER IS ASKED BY EBERT TO FORM NEW
 MINISTRY.

Berlin. - The Bauer cabinet has re- signed President Ebert has called on Hermann Mueller, the foreign minis ter, to take up the task of forming a new government Herr Mueller ae- cepted, but hesitated before tackling the job.
 On the return of Ebert and his cab met to Berlin after the fall of the Kapp dictatorship" it was declared Prime Minister Bauer would fill the vacancies in this cabinet and that it then would resign in U body, to be re placed by one of the more radical ele- ments in Germany.
 The Bauer cabinet resigned as pre- dicted, and the formation of a new government, when completed, will be found to be pleasing to all clements, it is believed
 Certain quarters have declared that the split came and that it came from the hostility of the Majority Socialists to the retention of Minister of Jus tice Shiffer They charge him with having negotiations with the Kappists to the point of promising support of a demand for amnesty of the Kapp troops.
 However, Herr Schiffer's party, the Democratic, says Herr Schiller, who remained in Berlin when the rest of the cabinet fled, used means to show the Kappists the futility of their efforts, but declares emphati- cally he refused to treat with Knapp, Luettwitz, or other leaders. Also it denies he gave any assurance or sup port to the amnesty plea, but that he limited himself strictly to the statement that it was a question for the national assembly. The meeting of the national assembly has been postponed pending the formation of a new cabinet.
 The ministry of justice, before the dissolution of the cabinet. took the preliminary steps for confscation of the fortunes of Kapp and other insur- rectionists.
 Kapp has large estate in east Prussia, and one report is that he fled from Berlin to DanZig en route to some Scandinavian country. The re- port that he was under arrest is un-
