The fall of the Vorwärts stronghold and the firm stand of the
government disheartened the mercenary and criminal recruits of the
Spartacans. Police Headquarters, the real center of the revolutionary
movement, was taken early Sunday morning after a few 10.5-
centimeter shells had been fired into it. The official report told of
twelve Spartacans killed, but their casualties were actually much
higher. Eichhorn had chosen the better part of valor and
disappeared. The Bolsheviki occupying the various newspaper plants
began deserting en masse over neighboring roofs and the plants
were occupied by government troops without a contest. News came
that Liebknecht's followers had also abandoned the Boetzow
Brewery in the eastern part of the city, one of their main
strongholds. Late in the afternoon they also fled from the Silesian
Railway Station, where they had been storing up stolen provisions,
assembling arms and ammunition and preparing to make a last
desperate stand.
[61] The task of the government was made harder throughout its
darkest days by the aid and comfort given its enemies by the character
of the reports published in certain enemy papers regarding conditions in
Germany. Nearly the entire Paris press regularly published extravagantly
untrue reports concerning the situation, and many English and American
papers followed suit. The London Times of December 10th gravely told
its readers that "in a political sense Ebert is suspected of being a mere
tool of the old régime, whose difficult task it is to pave the first stages of
the road to the restoration of the Hohenzollerns months or years hence."
Three days later it declared that "the German army chiefs propose to let
the Spartacans upset the government so that they can summon
Hindenburg to save the day and reëstablish the monarchy." Articles of
this stamp were eagerly pounced upon and republished by Independent
Socialist and Spartacan organs of the stamp of Die Freiheit, Die Republik,
Liebknecht's Die rote Fahne, and others, and were of great assistance to
the enemies of good government in their efforts to convince the ignorant
and fanatical that the government was organizing a "white guard" for
counter-revolutionary purposes and was plotting the restoration of the
monarchy. One dispatch from Paris, published extensively in the
American press on February 26th, quoted in all seriousness "a prominent
American Socialist in close touch with German Liberals and with
exceptional sources of secret information," who had learned that "the
German revolution was a piece of theatrical manipulation by agents of
the militaristic oligarchy to win an armistice." That such a report could be
published in responsible organs is a staggering commentary on the
manner in which the war-psychosis inhibited clear thinking. The
Conservative Deputy Hergt, speaking in the Prussian Diet on March 15th,
said: "We Conservatives are not conscienceless enough to plunge the
land into civil warfare. We shall wait patiently until the sound sense of
the German people shall demand a return to the monarchic form of
government." American papers carried the following report of this
statement: "Speaking before the new Prussian Diet in Berlin, Deputy
Hergt proposed that Prussia should restore the monarchy." Volumes
could be written about these false reports alone.
The week of terror had practically ended. There was still some
sniping from housetops and some looting, but organized resistance
had been crushed. Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg had gone into
hiding. Liebknecht's seventeen-year-old son and sister had been
arrested. Ledebour, more courageous or, perhaps, more confident
that a veteran Genosse had nothing to fear from a Socialist
government, remained and was arrested.
Liebknecht was still in hiding, but it was less easy to hide in Berlin
than it had been a month earlier, for the old criminal police were at
work again. The experiment with soldier-policemen had resulted so
disastrously that every Berliner who had anything to lose welcomed
the return of these men who had been so denounced and hated in
other days. The search lasted but two days. On January 15th
Liebknecht's apartment was searched, and great amounts of
propagandist pamphlets and correspondence showing him to be in
constant touch with the Russian Soviet Government were found. On
the evening of the next day policemen and soldiers surrounded the
house of a distant relative of Liebknecht's wife in the western part of
the city and Liebknecht was found. He denied his identity at first, but
finally admitted that he was the man wanted.
Taken as a whole, the party stood far to the left. Wolff, at the
extreme left of his organization, might be described either as a
bourgeois Socialist or a Socialistic bourgeois politician. The recruits
from the former National-Liberal Party were less radical, but even
they subscribed to a platform which called for the nationalization
(socialization) of a long list of essential industries, notably mines and
water and electrical power, and, in general, for sweeping economic
reforms and the most direct participation of the people in the
government. The fact that the new party was chiefly financed by big
Jewish capitalists caused it to be attacked by anti-Semites and
proletarians alike, but this detracted little from its strength at the
polls, since Germany's anti-Semites were never found in any
considerable numbers among the bourgeois parties of the Left, and
the proletarians were already for the most part adherents of one of
the Socialist factions.
The days between the elections and the convening of the National
Assembly brought further serious complications in Germany's
domestic situation. Disaffection among the soldiers was increased by
an order of Colonel Reinhardt, the new Minister of War, defining the
respective powers of officers' and the soldiers' councils. The order
declared that the power of command remained with the officers in
all matters affecting tactics and strategy. The councils' functions
were confined to matters of provisioning and to disciplinary
punishments. This order, although in accordance with the original
decree of the cabinet regarding the matter, failed to satisfy men who
had become contemptuous of all authority except their own.
On February 7th Dr. Eduard David, a scholarly man who had been
for many years one of the Majority Socialists' leaders, was elected
president (speaker) of the National Assembly. The other officers
chosen came from the Christian, Democratic and Majority Socialist
parties, the extreme Right and extreme Left being unrepresented.
Organization having been effected, a provisional constitution was
adopted establishing the Assembly as a law-giving body. It provided
for the election of a National President, to serve until his successor
could be elected at a general election, and for the appointment of a
Minister-President and various ministers of state. The constitution
created a so-called Committee of State, to be named by the various
state governments and to occupy the position of a Second Chamber,
and empowered the assembly to enact "such national laws as are
urgently necessary," particularly revenue and appropriation
measures.
Ebert belongs to that class which the French call the petite
bourgeoisie, the lower middle class. He possesses all the solid,
domestic virtues of this class, and is a living exemplification of old
copy-book maxims about honesty as the best policy and faithfulness
in little things. Without a trace of brilliancy and without any unusual
mental qualities, his greatest strength lies in an honesty and
dependability which, in the long run, so often outweigh great mental
gifts. Few political leaders have ever enjoyed the confidence and
trust of their followers to a greater degree.
