Won SydoU Trying to Form
Swedish Coalition Cabinet

STOCKHOLM. Sept. 27.-ln accord
ance with the wishes OF King Gustave
efforts are being made 10 form coa!i-
ton Cabinet Of decidedly Liberal color
ing, or temporary Cabinet OF Liberals
and Conservatives, 10 prepare the bud
get for the opening Of Parliament on
January -. The King has privately
requested Oscar Won Sydow. Minister
Of the Interior in the HammarskJold
Cabinet. 70 form new government,
suggesting that the present war MIN
lister. Colonel Alderman. remain IN OF
fee. and that Eliel Loefgren. proml-
nent Liberal leader, be made Minister
Of Justice and Captain Sten DehIgren
Minister of Marine. .,
Professor Eden and Baron Abel
syserd also have been requested TO
Join the new Cabinet, but do not ap-
prove of a government containing Con-
servatives. II is unlikely that the So
cialist leader. NJ. Brsnting. or any
other Socialists would join such
coalition.
NJ. Won Sydow was known as clever
and industrious official during his
tenure of office and was persona grata
with the Liberals and Socialists.
The resignation OF the present Caoi-
net will not be announced until its sue
cessor is chosen.

resolution declaring that the Cabinet

not contain members Of the bourgeois.
They propose to place the following
tasks upon the Cabinet:

possible the Constituent Assembly: to

Swedish King Desires
A Conservative Premie,

LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE Socialists
and Liberals won the Swedish elections,
but the King desires 20 retain Con-
servative Premier, and il is considered
probable that Hjalmar Branting, the
Socialist leader, will be willing to give
the Kings new scheme a fair trial.
Won Sydow is thought TO be the best
selection which the King could make
from the Conservative ranks, and is
regarded even by his political oppo-
nents as clear minded and unbgoted.
The retention in the War Office Of the
pro-German Colonel Akermsn is the
only unsatisfactory side of the Kings
scheme His retention is palpably die
tatrd by the fact that the army Is IN
Conservative hands, and this undoubt
eddy is the reason for the hesitation
of the chief Liberal leaders, Professor
Eden and Baron Adelswaerd, to join
the Cabinet

as a very able man

Reaction in Russia
To Erase Bolsheviki
By Issac Don Levine

All the Pctrograd dispatches speak
Of the intorication Of the Bolshevikl
with its own power. Russia to-day
looks TO the world as one big camp OF
extremists run wild. One report an
nounces the triumphsl arrival Of Len
inc in Petrograd. Another describes
the helplcssness Of the Provisional
Government. A third gives the details
Of the ultrn-radical MaSimalist pro-
gramme.
Nothing can be more one-sided than
the picture Of Russia now exhibited
before the world. II Ia picture IN
which tho conservative elements Of the
nation do not appear. Where are the
Cossacks in this picture? Where arc
the national forces which backed NOR
ally Korniloff's recent attempt to sup
press the rule Of the Bolsheviki7 Where
are the patriotic Socialistic parties
In a word. where are all those elements
which stand for sanity. moderation and
conservation in the Russia which stares
at the world from the papers this week
For the moment the Bolsheviki are
supreme, TO be sure. and In their So
premacy they make a frightful noise
But the conservative and moderate Gle
mcnts have surely not disappeared from
the country within a few days. Their
power. if anything, must have in
creased considerably. because Of tho
fact that they arc suppressed by the
extremists.
With the rise Of the ultra-radicals ia
actual power, the expansion and growth
of the country's patriotic and national.
istic forces must have been enormous
But this expansion has been latent, not
open.
Somewhere in the depth Of Rus
sia's national organism a mobilization
of all the conservative elements is TAX
ing place. The outside world is IN
aware of the inner process. And yet
it is likely TO burst out In the near
future.
One thing is certain. The Bolshe-
wiki will not be allowed to get away
with it. The further they go, the
more do they endanger themselves
They may yet overthrow Kerensky.
They may seize the government for a
while. Temporarily, they may hold II
and inaugurate. even. some Of their
extremist measures. But Russia will
finally react TO all that, and react in
a manner as to erase the Bolsheviki
from the face Of the land.
A mighty, sweeping, savage reaction
is bound 70 follow the present orgy.
Perhaps il is already on the way Per
haps Kerensky has heard already the
rumblings of the coming eruption.
Kerensky has way OF sensing APP
preaching storms and shaping his
course accordingly. The attitude which
he is reported TO have adopted to
ward the Democratic Congress would
confirm this view. Kerensky would
not want to ally himself with the elc-
merits which would be doomed in case
of a reaction. He would rather keep
aloof now from the ultra-radicals, 80
as 10 be able TO save the revolution
By restraining the coming onrush OF
the reactionary forces.

He indicated, however, that the COM

sense that peace was imminent or that
this country was endeavorng to bring
about peace by negotiations. His work
will be to gather material which will
arm America for the prominent part
she must play when the conference is
held.
THE announcement that the Presi-
