was trying to rally to it's support all
the nationalist forces in Germany to
establish the Bavarian state as the
predominant state, instead Of Prus-
sia. The Bayarian nationalists want
to clean house in Germany" routing
out socialism.
The action Of Bavaria in appointing
the mutinous General Won Lossow as
commander Of the reichswehr in Ba-
varia was regarded as the first step
toward secession. A communique
was issued deploring the terribly ag-
gravating situation"
To add to the seriousness Of the
governments position. food riots took
place in Hamburg. Dresden. Berlin,
Schoenberg and Neukoeln.

ing Bavaria with fiat violation OF the
German national legislation.

decree of Munich. are placed under
command of Won Lossow, who is
virtually In mutiny against the Ber-
lin government through his refusal
to enforce government decrees.
The Bavarian government and
Herr Won Kahr. the Bavarian die
tator, issued statements acknowledg.
ing Won Lossow's dismissal by Berlin.
but appointing him commander OF
the reichswehr divisions in Bavaria.
This put the Bavarian reichswehr
between two masters and in effect
invited secession and military mu-
tiny.
General Won Zeekt issued procla-
nation declaring that whoever
obeys General Won Eossow. deposed
commander of the reichswehr In Ba-
yaria, breaks his oath to the German
republic"
Both the government proclamation
and that issued by Won Zeekt said
that the Bavarian nationalists do not
aim at secession. They said they
