AS our readers may, no doubt, re-
call, interviewing is no 'lead-pipe
cinch." In endeavoring to render a
verbatim report of his interview with
Mr.. Darst last week our local repre-
sentative lost friend-twas merely
a pencil, but you know how difficult
it is to keep a friend-with so much
other property to watch, in addition.
Life is just one burned thing after
another (including pencils).
The discussion had progressed to
the point where politics were being
holly debated.
Mr. Darst, l see that Mr.. Y. and
Mr.. X and Mr. e. are running for
mayor of this town. Who do you think
has the best show?"
"The Airdome theatre"
(This provoked rhetorical outburst
from our reporter. Mr.. Darst coun-
tered With:
/ IN promulgating your esoteric cogi-
tatlons. and in articulating your super
fetal sentimentalities and philosophi-
cal or psychological observations, be-
ware of platitudinous ponderosity.
Let your conversation possess a con-
c1seness, a coalescent consistency, a.
conjunctive congruity, and a concat-
enated cogency. Sedulously avoid all
polysyllabic profundity, pompous pro-
lixity, citacious vacuity and vanilo-
quent vapidity. Let your extempor-
aneous descantings and unpremedi-
tated expatiations have intelligibility
and veracious vivacity without rhetori-
cal bombast Eschew all conglomera-
tons, flatulent garrulity, jejune bah
Element and asinine affectation. Shun
double entendres, prurient jocosity,
and malevolent mordacity."
Our reporter could only murmur:
individuals residing in vitreous domi-
Giles should beware how they hurl
meteorological fragments" However,
| the continuation:
"Mr. Darst, I understand that you
are quite law student l would like
you to give me your opinion in this
case: Two mortal enemies, whom we
shall designate as "a and b, have not
met in years. Each one carries a
gun, determined to mete our instant
death to the other. One day, in walk
ing down Broadway, A sees B. He
draws his gun, levels it at B and pulls
the trigger. At the instant of firing,
passer-by, unknown to either, (here-
in designated as 'C') crosses the path
of the bullet in such a manner that
the bullet enters the fleshy part of his
arm, continues on it's way, striking B,
and killing him instantly.
"a policeman. summoned to the
scene, interviews A and c, and arrests
C, charging him with the murder! A
is allowed to remain at liberty. Can
you explain the policeman's actions?"
Eyes, it is quite simple. 1T is
through C that B was shot,"
II understand that 1906 pennies are
worth a lot of money, Mr.. Darst. Is
that true"

from the stats of the Austrian and
German high commands. These
notes inform the Stavka that the
organizer of the volunteer army in
the Don region, General Alexieff,
is in written communication with
the officer personnel of the Polish
legions at the front, with the view
of getting the help of Polish officers
in the counter-revolution. This in
formation has b>en received by the
Austrian agents from the Polish
Bolshevick Comrade Zhuk, who
played large part at Rostov during
the November and December bat
ties. On the other side, the repre-
! sentative OF the German govern
ment, Count Lerchenfeldt, reports
of the rapidly growing movement
in Poland in favor of the bourgeoi-
sic estate owners imperialistic plan
to defend with arms the greatest
possible independence of Poland,
with the broadening of its frontiers
at the expense of Lithuania, White
Russia and Galicia.
This movement is actively sup
ported by popular democratic party
in Warsaw, as we'll as Petrograd,
by military organizations guided by
the counter revolutionary estate
owners and the bourgeoisie Polish
clergy.
The situation which has arisen
was discussed on the 10th of Janu-
airy at the Stavka in the presence of
Major Won Boehlke, sent the Petro-
grad branch of the German intelli-

7. To request the Commission for
Combating the Counter-Revolution
with agreement with the German in

arrange a surveillance and observa-

(k) The Polish treasury, through
which, according to agency reports,
the governments of countries allied
with Russia intend, with the assist
ance of the New York National City
bank, to supply with monetary re-
sources the counter-revolutionary
camp.
1t is necessary to verify the pri-
vate reports of several Lithuanian
revolutionaries that among the
church benevolent funds, which are
at the disposal of Polish clergy, are
the capitals of private persons
who hid their money from requisi-
ton for the benefit of the safe.
In case of establishment of any
connection with the counter revo-
luton the guilty Polish institutions
are to be liquidated, their leaders
and also persons connected with the
counter-revolutionary activity are to
be arrested and sent to the disposal

was exhibited in this connecticut a
confidential demand concerning the
immediate Indictment of the Rou-
manian army to recognize the ne

the terms of a democratic peace
pointed out by the Russian dele

and the whole commanding force
of the Roumanian army, with, re-
gard to which the chief command
of the German army has received
the most exact agency information,
spoils the excellent impression pro-
duced in Germany and on all the
fronts by the Russian peace propo-
sitions, which has made it possible
to again stimulate the popular feel
ing against England, France, and
America and can bring about an
undesirable and dangerous aggrava-

the conclusion of an armistice and

Method of Getting
Information Is Not
Giuen to the Public

Edgar Sisson of the Bureau OF
Public Information, who obtained
the evidence of the treason OF
Trotzky and Lenine and brought
it to this country at the risk OF
his life, has given to the public no
intimation of the manner in which
he secured the priceless informa-
ton.
It is the assumption that there
was someone in the bolshevlk
government who was so appalled,
and indignant over the perhdy of
the paid agents of Germany that
he disclosed the secrets. That he
was a person of importance is in
dicated by the fact that he evil
IDENTIFY had access to the most I'M
portant files of the soviet gov
eminent.
He knew exactly what to give
out in order to prove the treach-
cry of the two traitors and must
have had some experience with
statecraft.
But the details of the preser-
walton of this-record of infamy
are shrouded and will continue
to be shrouded while the war
lasts and possibly for genera
ton after that. The force of
events in relation to the dis
closures after they reached this
side of the water is likewise mys-
ferrous.
Many months ago Mr.. Sisson
made this report, which reached
the president of the United
States. During all these months
President Wilson has allowed
those who wished him to cut
away at once from any relation
with the bolshevists to assume
that he hoped for some regard for
Russia to influence Trotzky and
Lenine.
Never in all this time, while he
discussed Russia with a thousand
persons of all shades of opinion,
has he divulged that he had in
his possession the complete evil
dence that Trotzky and Lenine
were the'paid agents of Germany,
taking orders for everything,
from forging passports to assas-
sination, from the beginning when
they were sent into Russia to
turn the revolution to Germany's
purposes.
Sisson, who gathered the infor-
nation, is Minnesotan by birth,
a Northwestern University gradu-
ate and a newspaper and maya
zine editor. He began his news
paper work on the Chicago
Chronicle, passed from that to the
Chicago Tribune, of which he
became city editor, and then was
graduated to New York. He was
managing editor of Golfers, then
managing editor of the Cosmopo-
Titan, which place he left to be-
come an attache of the Bureau
of Public Information at consid-
erably less than half the salary.
He went to Russia to assist in
spreading propaganda to coun-
teratt the effect of the German
campaign. He found he was up
against worse than propaganda
and devoted himself to uncover
ing the conspiracy he recognized,
and he brought back the proofs
at the risk of his life.

FROM DISHWASHER TO

An article in the Denver Post en-

interesting account of the life Of I.
Rude, who started as a dishwasher
in Denver in 1898, and was recently
elected president of the Union State
Bank, one of Co1orado's rapidly
growing financial institutions.
Mr.. l. Rude has been member
of the Board Of Trustees Of the Jew
ish Consumptives' Relief Society for
the last ten years. He had been
chairman of the Building Committee
for many years and under his adj
ministration the majority of the
buildings now on the grounds of the
society have been erected.
Mr. Rude recently bought six
teen lots for the Moshav Zkenim
and Jewish Hospital Association,
on which the contemplated home
for the aged and a general hospital
will be built shortly. Mr.. I. Rude
is the only Jew in Colorado who Of

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

practically ignored by the FEEDER
alton of American Zionists because
it deemed the situation here I'm
fruitful, if not impossible. To the
great amazement of American Jew
ry the War has brought a remark
able change in the Zionist forces Of
Washington. Washington, under
the Zionist leadership Of Robert
Sold, a young attorney in the De-
partment of Justice, has done re-
markable work for the Cause Of
Zion during the past few months.
With the cooperation Of such bril-
liant workers as Ittamar ben Avi,
Elisha Friedman and Aaron Aron-
sohn, the Zionists have won over to
the movement a number Of the most
prominent Jews of America, who are
at present in Washington because
of distinction in the field of industry,
finance and civic leadership. Then
again the entire circle Of Govern
ment leaders and statesmen and the
diplomatic staff, have been most
favorab1y influenced by the splendid
work shown by the local organiza
tons. One of the best indications
of the progress actually attained is
that the Zionists of Washington
have almost raised the sum of $751;
600 for the Palestine Restoration
Fund.

LEAGUE OF BRITISH JEWS
SURRENDER.

The League Of British Jews
which was organized under the lead
ership of Lord Swaythling, Claude
Montefiore and Sir Philip Magnus
shortly after the British Declaration
on Zionism and a national Jewish
home in Palestine, and for the pur-
pose of antagonizing the national
basis of the restoration of the Holy
Land, has capitulated. Instead of
winning substantial multitude to its
ranks, the League, as events prove,
merely served to intensity the en-
thusiasm of British Jewry for a ma
tional homeland. Protests against
the propaganda launched by the
League came in from quarters in
which the organizers expected they
would draw the strongest support,
with the result that they were COM
PEELED to recast their plans and to
work for a conference with the Zion
lists. This conference, which has
Just been held, was participated IN
by the gentlemen named and also
by DR.. Weitzman, President Of the
English Zionist Federation, and
Nahum Sokolow. A public state
ment embodying a plan for coop
Grafton in Pa1estinian work is ex-
pected shortly.
