 labor in this country, is back from Europe, where he successfully concluded mission in a most high and patriotic cause. He IS vice-president of the National Civic fedora ton. In the last issue of the Review, the official organ of this body, appears an edi- torial warning against the danger of bol- shevism and the extremes of all radical and sociaistic movements that is as strong as any yet sounded on any printed page. In part, 1t says:
 Uninformed people in America and other countries may fondly imagine that events in far-away Russia do not threaten their safety and institutions. A greater mistake could not be made.
 Having achieved what they consider success in Russia, the bolsheviki and their organs tho opposition newspapers being allowed) began threatening that they would carry the class war to every coun. try in the world" This notification should have been taken seriously but it was not For wears socialists and the 1. w. w. have been preaching the class war. They had the design but lacked the means. The bol- sheviki have the financial resources, and the socialist party spokesmen and theIr tol- lowers in the United States are now boldly avowing themselves bolshevists.
 How many of our people here know that the bolsheviki have control of 800, ,OOO,OOO rubIes in gold, which is part of what they found in the Russian treasury as reserve when they seized power? But this is by no means all They found also O,OOO,OOO francs in gold which had been transferred from Rumania before the revolution.

No observant person can have failed to notice the systematic outbreak ot boshevist agitation here. Expenslvely manufactured magazines have suddenly made their appearance. The Class Strug- gle, published in Brooklyn, every line ot which Is a bolshevist indictment or distor- ton, is an instance Book after book is being run off the press We know, says The Red Army, the word democracy Is as- sociated with the word republic only to cheat the people. The book writers promptly take their cue. There is a war beneath the war, insists Walter E. Weyl in his recently issued book, The End of the War" in concluding which, he says: It will be wider conflict than that which now rages (the great world war), and the alignment will be by classes and interests, rather than by nations.
