kerensky Expected to Fight Rebel
Government

London. November 8 Russia is
back agaon where she was last March.
Bolsheviki fanatics, extreme radi-
Gals, who burn at once to make the
world a brotherhood, who are set
against all wars. who believe in ut.
termost democracy, seemed today to
control all Petrograd, the capital.
Premier Alexander Kerensky and
what remains of the machinery of the
provisional government, apparently
still has support of the remainder of
Russia.
The situation was regarded here as
precisely parallel to the first few
days following the revolution by
which the czar was upset.
Then it was Lvoff, Millukoff and
other Liberals who first seized the
outward symbols Of government in
Petrograd, while the old regime still
clung to power in the other parts OF
Russia.
May Sway the Peasants
The danger as London saw 1t to-
day, was that Nickolai Lenine and
Leon Trotsky and their fellow fana'
tics of the Bolsheviki would be able
to extend their control beyond Petro'
grad and sway Russia's great peasant
population, ignorant of the utopiar
idealism of the Bolshevikii to theil
side.
Kerensky was reported to have es'
capped the rebels in Petrograd. He
was reported seen en- route to Mos.

suit the plans Of the pan-Germans.
Power cannot be used with concentrate
ed force against free peoples if it is
used by free people.
"You know how many intimations
came to us from one Of the central
powers that it is more anxious for
peace than the chief central power;
and you know that it means that the
people in that central power know
that if the war ends as it stands, they
will in effect themselves be vassals Of
Germany, notwithstanding that their
populations are compounded with all
the people of that part Of the world,
and notwithstanding the fact that they
do not wish in their pride and proper
spirit of nationality to be so absorbed
and dominated.
Germany is determined that the
political power of the world shall be
long to her. There have been such
ambitions before. They have been IN
part realized. But never before have
those ambitions been based up sc
exact and precise and scientific plar

"May I not say that it is amazing
to me that any group of people should
be so Uniformed as to suppose, as
some groups in Russia apparently sup
pose, that any reforms planned in the
interest of the people can live in the
presence of a Germany powerful
enough to undermine or overthrow
them by intrigue or force. Any body
Of free men that compounds with the
I present German government is COM
pounding for it's own destruction. But
| that is not the whole of the story.
| Any one in America or anywhere else,
who supposes that the free industry
and enterprise Of the world can con-
tinue if the Pan German plan is ac-
hieved and German power fastened
upon the world, is as fatuous as the
dreamers Of Russia.
Contempt for Pacifists.
"What I am opposed to is not the
feeling of the pacifists, but their stu
pidity. My heart is with them, but
my mind has contempt for them. I
want peace, but / know how to get
it, and they do not.
"You will notice that | sent friend

send him on a peace mission; l sent
him to take part in a conference as

knows, as know, that that is the way
to get peace, if you want it for more
than few minutes.
Gall of this is preface to the con-
ference that referred to with regard
to what we are going to do. If we
are true friends of freedom-our own

Exhaust COnciliatOry Efforts.


"Now to stand together means that
nobody must interrupt the processes
Of our energy, if the interruption can
possibly be avoided without the alb
solute invasion of freedom. To put it
concretely that means this: Nobody
has a right to stop the processes of
labor until all the methods of concil-
iation and settlement have been ex-
hausted; and might as we'll say right
here that l am not talking to you
alone. You sometimes stop the
courses of labor, but there are others
who do the same, and l believe that
am speaking of my own experience
not only, but of the experience of
others when say that you are more
reasonable in number of cases than
are the capitalists.
II am not saying things to them
personally yet, because l haven't had
a chance. But they have to be said,
not in any spirit of criticism because
I would like to see all the critics ex-
ported. But in order to clean the at
mosphere and come down to business,
| everybody on both sides has got to
transact business and the settlement
is never impossible when both sides
want to do the square and right
things. Moreover, a settlement is al
! ways hard to avoid when the parties
can be brought face to face. / can

can when he is in the room, because
| then the awkward thing is that he can
come back at me and answer what
say. It is always dangerous for a
man to have the floor entirely to him
self. And therefore, we must insist
in every instance that the parties
come into each others presence and
| there discuss the issues between them
"Therefore by counsel to you is
| this: Let us show ourselves Ameri-

to go off in separate camps or groups

cesses by which the struggle between.

do not mean for a moment to compare
them with what I have just been
speaking Of, but I want you to see
that they are mere gradations of the
manifestations Of the unwillingness
to cooperate and the fundamental les
son of the whole situation is that we
must not only take common counsel
but that we must yield to and obey
common counsel. Not all of the in
strumentalities for this are at hand.
| am hopeful that in the very near
future new instrumentalities may be
organized by which we can see to it
that various things that are now 60
ing on, shall not go on. There are va
rious processes Of the dilution of la
Dor and the unnecessary substitution
Of labor and bidding in distant mar
kets and unfairly upsetting the whole
competition of labor, which ought not
to go OIL mean now on the part of
the employers-and we must interject
into this some instrumentality Of CO.
operation by which the fair thing will
be done all around. I am hopeful that
some such instrumentalities may be
devised but whether they are or not,
we must use those that we have and
upon every occasion where it is nee
essary to have such an instrumental
ty originated upon that occasion, if
! necessary.
