Fall of Moscow Into Hands
of Maximalists Emol.a-
sizes Scope Of Revolt
Seek Immediate Peace
Radicals Look Upon This Step
as Means of German
Overthrow
By Isaac Don Levine


The fall of Moscow into the hands OF
the Maximalists again emphasizes the
viewpoint that the overthrow Of Keren-
sky was not local Petrograd affair.
The world may just as well face the
truth. The masses that overthrow the
Car last March have now overthrow
Kerensky. Il is not a local affair, this
Lenine revolt.
The entire Russian people want
peace-not a separate peace, but an
immediate general peace. The Maxi
malists are holding out TO them the
promise of such a peace.
For the moment it is unimportant to
discuss what will happen to the Maxi
malsts when they shall have failed to
realize their promises. But it is i'm
portant to bear in mind the exact pres.
ent situation, which is that the IN
shackled masses of Russia, having lost
confidence in the moderate elements,
are willing TO give the extremists
chance to carry out the mandate of the
revolution, the bringing about of a gen.
oIal peace through the overthrow of
me Hohenzollerns.
1t is heartbreaking for those Rus
SLAMS who supported and believed in
Kerensky TO observe that even the
calamity which has now befallen their
country failed to open the eyes Of Al
lied public opinion TO the real ailment
of the New Russia. These Russians
feel that it is ridiculous to explain
away the Maximalist coup G'etat by the
old "made-in Germany" cry. They
would be happy to be able to feel that
the result was the work of German
agents, as that would be the surest
guarantee Of its speedy collapse.
However, actually contradicts any
such supposition. The fact that numer-
Gus German agents were active in
Russia as pacitst propagandists does
not make the Bolsheyiki revolt Ger
man-made." The Boisheviki have ex-
listed as party for twelve years. Their
leaders, Lenine and Trotzky. are known
as fanatics, internationslists, vision
aries, but not as shrewd manipulators.
Both are the most outspoken of all
Russian radicals. They have been pro-
claiming what they were going to do
for months. Now they are doing il.
They have been advocating an armis-
tice for half a year as means OF
forcing a revolution in Germany, and
peace. Now they propose to offer il.
There is a general disposition 20
blame Kerensky for not suppressing
the Bolsheviki in time. Foreigners
cannot understand that revolutionary
Russia would never stand for a die
tatorship from above. The Russian
masses want to be themselves the die
tator of Russia's destinies. Kerensky
knew that any attempt at dictatorship
would have meant his instant end.

Bolsheviki Rule To
Be Short-Lived, Says
Member of Root Party

That the revolutionary successes of
the Russian Bolsheviki will be short
lived, that no separate peace with Ger
many will be negotiated and that or
der soon will be restored through the
establishment of a forceful govern
ment was the optimistic view expressed
yesterday by Samuel r. Bertron, a
member of the American commission,
headed BY Elihu Root, which last
spring visited Russia.
81 do not consider the news from
Russia announcing, through Bolsheviki
sources, a successful revolution, as Sc
riously as one who had not studied the
underlying conditions in Russia
might" said Mr.. Bertron.
when Russia overnight changed
from a despotism to an extreme democ-
racy the new government attempted to
control by persuasion rather than by
force. This may have been wise
measure at the time Gradually the
hSiSnShJ ministry DeSdU 10 assume
certain additional powers which were
generally recognized, and up to the
time of the Korniloff incident matters
were going rather well and the existing
government was daily gaining strength.
THE result of this rupture was that
Kerensky had to rely more than ever
upon the socialistic elements for sup
port in order to maintain his position.
This gave very great confidence to the
extreme Socialists, who have ever since
been attempting to gain power in
Petrograd. If the Kerensky govern
ment survives it will be forced to take
decisive measures to suppress disorder
and in doing so it will have the sup
port of Russia.
absence of force or of forceful
government, combined with the intro
duction of German money and propa-
ganda, have brought TO head situa-
tion which was slumbering, and it ia
probably as well that it should occur
now. We may reasonably expect that
this temporary success in Petrograd
will result in the establishment of a
strong government and a more speedy
rehabilitation of the country.
THE United States is doing all it
can for Russia in supplying it with ma
terial and money"

the revolution, he was permitted by
the German government to return to
Petrograd by way of Germany. Once
arrived in the Russian capital, he
undertook O vigorous campaign at the
head Of the ultra-radicals in favor OF

Although he was working directly
against the interests Of the revolution
and crushing the newborn liberty in
the country with his insistent propa-
ganda, he was permitted TO continue
because the Provisional Government
feared his arrest and punishment

Russia Viii Make No

Russia will never consent to a sep

Socialist Representative in Congress
from New York City, in a lecture at
City College last night.
Russians have suffered in misery
for centuries. but they are willing to
suffer for centuries more, because they
realize that if they stop they will en-
danger the safety of the rest Of the
world.
What they do demand, before they
resume their fighting, is that the OBJ
jects Of the war be made clear. They
will not fight for the selfish aims Of
any nation. NO annexations and no
indemnit!es' is their motto. Russia's
purpose is to bring lasting peace and
democracy TO the world"
