The Magyars and the Magyarized elements have not as yet been reconciled to the new re- gime, and the peasants have recovered from their first enthusiasm. A difficult task of reconciliation remains to be performed by the Czechs. The population of Slovakia Is made up of three elements—Slovak Intelli- gencla, which has always been very strong for the union with Bohemia; the Magyars and Magyarized Germans, and he peasantry. The Intelligencia has been completely satisfied by the government. The ad- has been handed over , MOUNT JO completely to the very small number | of Slovak doctors, lawyers, authors Magyars Ignored. Meanwhile the Magyars and Mag- | varized elements have been quite ig- nored by the government except where the government could not find a Slovak to fill the job. Intense loyalty to the old Hungarian rule characterizes these | people. They could be reconciled to new conditions were they taken into the (Czech administration.

In the other industrial districts the work- men seem to hie taken out their class-consciqusness in making big de- mands upon their employers. Not un- usual was it for workmen to come to their employers and demand that they receive a percentage of all profits ac- crued since the war's beginning. With all this discontent the food situation is very much involved. The mountain- ous, which happen to be the industrial, districts are mostly very short of food and clothes. Many factories where leather and other products of the land gre used function part time, but the men have not enough to keep them- In there are not even Hence, as in some districts of Behemia, the trend is to- ward bolshevism.
