It Is also announced that tho Swiss
Government refuses to recognize Eis

in Berno, Professor Foretcr.
A number of Workers and Soldiers'
Councils, omong which are thoso of
Breslau, Mayenco and Cologne, have
sent vigorous protests against Eisner,
Bavarian clerical, peasants' and bour

terms.
It will bo Temembered that Eisner also

main in office and declare that there is
no reason why they should resign.

Is Die Roto Fahne. It accuses Bolt of
having entered a protest agalnrft the
publication of the Lerchenfeld letters
without first mentioning It to his Social.
