 ''COUP" EXPLAINED
FAILURE AF ALLIES TO HESITATE LEADS TO RUs- SLAMS TAKING RECENT STEPS, NOV
 17TH THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE

Under the heading of "Keren- sky's' Fall Followed Allies Fail uro to Restate Aims" the New York Tribune some time ago pub lished an article by Isaac Don Le- vine, which shed considerable light upon the latest events in Russia. MT. Levine, in a brief historical re- view of Russian developments, at- tributes the action of the Maximal- istS, or Bolsheviki, forces in over throwing KerenSky and the Pro- visioncl Government to failure of the Allies to respect the wishes of the new Russian democracy, which requested re-statenent of war aims. Following the disappointment of hopes in this respect. the Petro- grad Council of Workman's and Soldiers Dcputi:s took matters di- re3tly into their own hands.
 Isaac Don Levine, the Tribune states, is himself an expatriated IAuEoltiI lGNOIuIlOIlSl' HIS illICI- pr1tation of events is greatly illu- initiating, and helps to place Rus sion affairs in a more intelligiblc perspective. His article follows:
 "The great battle between mode ration and extremism in the New Russia is at an end. Since the birth of free Russia the elements of practical statesmanship, under the generalship of Kerensky, fought with horoism unexampled to re- strain the Revolution. But the Russian Revolution would not stay restrained. And now after seven months battle, emotionalism and radicalism led by Lenin and Trotsky are triumphant over Ker- ensky.

Key To Russia's Strategy.

Hero is the key of the whole Rus sian situation. The Russian peo- plo are firmly convinced that a German revolution ekpossible. You cannot understand what has hap pencd without reckoning with this cardinal fact. The Russians be- lieye that if the Asaies repudiated all aims at annexnti ,ns and puni- tive indemnities there would be a German evolution. Moreover, they add that they will fight like lieas if the German people fail to revolt.
 The mandate If the Russian re- voultion is the bringing of peace through a German revolution. The revolutio nary democracy of Russia empowered the Council of Work men and Soldiers to carry out this mandate. The council forced the reconstruction of the Government for the purpose of having the AL lies rcstatc their war aims. Ker- cnsky wort i2.o t..e government So represent the couzcil and eventu- ally became the leader of the gov ernmcnt in order to enact tha wishes of tne council.

BROTHER JONATHAN Don't you think the Socialist Labor Party is somewhat intolerant?
 UNCLE SAM-No; why?
 B. J.-I1l tell you. It calls the labor leaders fakirs because they went join the s. L. P.
 U. s.-Whore d:d you get that frcm?
 B. J.-That is what the labc1 I leaders say.
 U. S.-But thc:r sIying so does not make it so,
 B. J.-But docs not the s. L. P. call them fakirs?
 U. S.-Whcw? These profession als of the pure ana simple stripe?
 B. J.-Yes. .-..-

 B. Well, there you have it.. They ere called fakirs because they won't join the party. ..
 U. S.-Not at all; that is net the
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1918-02-06

reason. There is mighty good reason Q call them fakirs; their not joining tte S. L. P. would be 10 reason.
 B. J.-And what is the reason? U. S.-Therc arc workirgmen wEo actually still honestly indulge the superstition that the union and the strike and boycott are enough for all practical purposes; many a sincere worker holds th,c view; the blows he has received are not yet hard enough, and you know how difficult it is to rid oneself of a superstition if it has once taken hold.
 B. J.-Yes. indeed, I do.
 U. S.-Sucil workers and their leaiers are looked upo- rather with pity than contempt by the Industrial U2iorists or Socialists; these never call them faI:rs, but visicnaries and illusio:ists.
 B. Well, then, whom do the Industrial Un.orists call fakirs?
 U. Slut there arc a good many others who have long since dropped the pure and simple super stition; who know that the indus .ricl struggle or strikes and boy cots alone a:e not sufficient and that the workers must caet th3ir ballots against bo.h capitalist can Gidates, but whc nevertheless fight the s. L. P with furious rage.
 B. J.-Are those the ones the So- c;alis:s call fakirs?
 U. S.-Yes, but not siraply be- cause they fight the s. L. P.
 B. J.-For what other reason?
 U. S.-People may entertain an honest conviction that, although a certain labor party has correct platform, still it is constituted in a manner that they object to and is led by people whon they sincerely mistrust.
 B. J.--No, indeed! So long as they are honest in such convictions they arc no fakirs. But the test of their honesty is that they set up their own labor party. organized in such way as they may choose, and led by such men as they may trust. That is the test. The work CTS who would do that are TO fakirs; but those are fakirs who, while calling themselves Socialists, and while objectinG to the s. l.. F. nevertheless deliberately abstain from setting up their own party. Such fellows are Gll-rounC fakirs; they prove that they are dis&oncst in their opposition to the s. L. P, that they are on the make even if they have to play into the hands of tho capitalists by trading on thcir class.
 B. J.-Such people surely are fakirs.
 U. S.--And suca are the labor leaders whom tie Industrial Unionists and Socialists hold up with pitchfork to the well me rited execration of the working class.

 Tho Allies failed to see at first that the Provisional. Government, withoct tho backing Of t,;e soldiers and workmen, amounted 70 mo- thing. They considered the first ministry of Lvoft and Milukoff, the spokcsmen of Russia.
