work. The new government had no
means of reaching the people.
The typesetters refused to set up
the proclamations of the new govern
ment.
All Hamburg went on strike. 1t was
general and effective.
In cities the water supply was cut
off. So was gas and electricity. The
tram cars ceased operating.
There was little physical resistance,
but the strike was effective. When
the Prussian officials went into the
dining room of their hotel to be fed,
there was no food.
The cooks were on strike.
When they tried to get their own
food, they found there was no gas.
When they went to the cafes, they
were closed. The walters had struck.
Food had disappeared. The truck
men were on strike. Famine threat
ened Berlin, as it did other large
cities.
Chancellor Won Kapp and General
Won Luettwiz declared they would
shoot strikers who left their work.
They said: owe will not knuckle
down to the socialists and working
men who think they can run the
country"
They have knuckled down. The
military revolution has collapsed. Not
by force of arms, but because of the
passive, unresisting strike of the
workers.
Now Germany must deal with an
other danger. The extreme socialists
are attempting to set up soviets IN the
cities and it is impossible to forecast
the result of their efforts. One can
only hope that the workers who had
the courage and intelligence to toll
the militarists will not throw away
the fruits of their victory.
That there is reason to believe that
sanity will prevail is shown by the
cabled reports of the negotiations be-
tween the representative of the work
ers and the Ebert government.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1920-04-02
A DEPARTURE

For some time it has been in the
minds and hearts of large number
of men in Newark to inaugurate a
series of Holy Week Services open to
all men of all creeds and sects and to
those who have no particular demo-
minational connections. Services Of
this nature have long been held in
the larger cities, and there is no
particular reason why we should not
have them in our own city. In fact,
such services are being held this
week. This is quite right and proper.
There are two seasons in the year
when mans mind turn to things
religious-the Christmas season and
Easter. Community Christmas trees
have long replaced the old celebra-
tions when churches competed in
holding their exercises at yule-tide.
Why not community religious serv-
ice commemorating the resurrection?
These meetings are held for a half
hour every noon during Holy Week
at the First Presbyterian church un-
der the direction of no particular
denomination, but under the direction
of them, all in cooperation with the
Y. M. C. A. We are glad to COM
mend this movement and trust that it
will receive the support of every man
and woman who is within reach of
these meetings.

ASSOCIATION
WHAT GERMAN WORKERS HAVE
ACCOMPLISHED

The German militarists have sus-
tanned another crushing defeat. This
time they were not routed by the
troops of the worlds allied democra-
cies. Instead they were overwhelmed
by an unarmed enemy-a host OF
workers-Who refused to labor so
long as the representatives of the old
regime were in control of the gov
ernment.
Nothing just like it has ever been
recorded in history, and it is surprls-
ing that the big papers OF this coun-
try have failed to sense the true
meaning of the events which they
have been chronicling from day to day
They have overlooked the outstand-
ing fact that had it not been for the
workers of Germany the world would
today be facing the possibility of the
Hohenzollerns returning to Prussia.
The allies would be compelled to &C
quise or to renew the great war at
a time when people everywhere were
crying for peace.
The Ebert government was made
up of moderate socialists, who found
it extremely difficult to redeem the
pledges which they made to the peO-
pie. They were not entirely to blame
for their failures, as they were con-
fronted by innumerable harassilg
problems.
For a year the old monarchists had
been planning and plotting to get
back into power. Finally, under the
leadership of Won Kapp and Won
Luettwitz, they took possession of the
government buildings in Berlin; the
Ebert government fed hastily to
Dresden and then to Stuttgart, and
the new reactionary military govern
ment, supported by a small armed
force, took possession OF the ma
chinery of government. Apparently
it was firmly intrenched and the
statesmen of Europe looked on, SEEM
In former times this would have
been all that was necessary. People
are inclined to obey the government
that is in power.
Then Ebert used new weapon. he
called general strike of all the work
ers in Germany. He told the rail-
ways, the mines, the factories and
the entire industrial machine to stand
still.
President Ebert issued a proclama-
ton which said:
"Workmen Comrades: The mill
tary revolt has come.
"We refuse to bow to this mill
tary constraint. We did not make
the revolution in order to recog-
nize today the bloody government
of mercenaries. Workmen, COM
rades, we should be ashamed to
look you in the face if we were
capable of doing otherwise"
"We say MOI And again No!
Strike; cease work; throttle this
military dictatorship; fight with
all your means for the preserva-
tion of the republic. Put aside all
division. There is only one means
against the return of William II.
Paralyze all economic life. Not
hand must move. No proletarian
shall help the military dictator
ship. Let there be general strike
along the entire line. Let the
proletariat act as unit"
The workers obeyed.
The railwaymen's union declared
an immediate general strike.
The printers and pressmen stopped
