THE BOLsHEvIKI REVEALED
Charles Edward Russell Gives a
Penetrating Analysis From
First Hand Observation of the
Present Leaders of Russia.

No other phase of the Great War is
being watched today with such con-
suming interest and anxiety as the
situation in Russia. The men at the
head of Russian affairs have been
called traitors, weaklings tools, of
German influence-and then they
suddenly rise and refuse to submit to
German terms against which they /
seemed powerless to protest! WHAT
are we to make Of people like
these? How are we to judge them,
or predict from one day to the next
what action they will take? This is !
the great puzzle at present, puzzle
which every American interested inI
public affairs cudgels his brains to
solve. The vituperation Of much Of
our press utterance cannot help to
solve it. But man clear-sighted,
disinterested, sympathetic, and above
all with real knowledge, clears the
mystery for us in the article, what
is a Bolsheviki?" in Hearst's Maga
zine for February; that man is
Charles Edward Russell, member of
the special commission sent by the
United States to Russia. "To the end
of time," he writes, mankind will
probably have reason to lament that
in the year 1917 the American did
not understand the Russian and the
Russian did not understand the Amer
: ican"; yet "if it be at all worth while
to try to know a people upon whom
the fate Of the world probably de
pends, it is certainly worth while to
try to get his right number" Mr.
Russell, from his intimate knowledge
of the Bolsheviki as they actually ex-
ist, disabuses our minds Of the idea
that they are simply specimens OF
the genus yellow dog. He makes us
see much that is heroic and gentle
and even sublime in them, along with
the elements of fanaticism and in
: ability to face realities which have
! bewildered the world. His mastery
analysis reveals the bundle of contra
dictions which make up the Russian
mans, among foreign nations, have
taken the pains to understand. Il
other words, he does a distinct ser
= vice to American publicity by giving
: just appraisal to a situation whicl
{ we have been tempted to content our
. selves with calling chaos. AS wa
Z document, Mr.. Russell's article i
= sure to be given distinct prominence
- Mr. Russell also gives a detailed &C
count of the attempts made to wrecl
= the train of tn commission and tn
! ! manner in which the Russian peas
u :, ants met the danger; he disentangle
- - for US the tangle of the Russian Ma
tional Council; and he proves TIL
y interesting fact that Kerensky wa
not and never could be dictator t
the Russian people. Hearst's Maga
zine is to be congratulated on secur
ing an essay of such intense interes
and enduring value "Probably w
s Americans can understand the Rus
sian better than anyone else ca
S understand hind we ought to d
it. He is tbwworth-while mas

DISMISSAL NOT ENOUGH
Baker Wants Medical Officers
Who Mistreated Sick Soldiers
furnished.

A heavier n,s,izh,,e4ast- ',..=---- rrreffSo
d;.oc;~-- XII the service is recon-
mended by the War Department for
two army medical officers recently
convicted by court-martials of mis-
treating sick soldiers. After review
ing the records of the trials Secre-
tary Baker returned them to the trial
courts with the suggestion that SEN
| tences of dismissal be reconsidered
and that more severe penalties be
| imposed.
One case was that of First Lieuten-
ant John G. Dwyer, medical corps, on
hospital duty, at Camp Funston. Evi-
dence brought out at his trial showed
that soldier in the advanced stages
i of pneumonia who reported for treat
ment, was reprimanded for failure to
salute and sent back to duty. In fact
it was shown that the doctor urged
that the sick man, who died few
days later, be given double duty
i The other case was that of First
Lieutenant Charles w. Cole, Camp
Beauregard, in charge of the base
hospital An ambulance loaded with
sick men came to the hospital from
the regimental infirmary, it wa:
shown at the trial, and the Officer
kept the men waiting for nearly al
hour outside in the cold and rain be
: fore he went out to look at them
When he. did go out, it was brough
out that he ordered them taken bacl
to camp, as he had no room for them
The ambulance driver told the docto
that one man in his car was deliriou
2 and might hurt himself or others. Th
. officer instructed him to tie the pa
e tient up and take him back. Two @
the patients later died.
It was shown also that while tn
d base hospital was crowded, the min
S patients could have been cared for.
Secretary Baker has asked Senate
p Chamberlain for the names of officer
!, charged in letters to the senator wit
t neglect of sick men that the case
i may be investigated and punishmen
i meted out if the officers are guilty.

GERMANS PLANNING BIG
U-BOAT OFFENSIVE
Submarines Recalled Home To
Prepare for Most Powerful Of
fensive Against American Ship
ping-War Secretary Weekly
Military Review.

Warning that the Germans are pre-
pairing for a great submarine often
sive against the American lines of
communication with France in cOnnec-
Hion with the impending Teutonic
drive against the west front is given
by Secretary Baker in his weekly
military review made public Sunday
night by the War Department.
Recently there has been marked
decrease in the number of allied mer-
chant ships sunk by submarines. The
explanation for this is found in the
withdrawal of submarines in prepar-
alton for the coming thrust on land
and sea. The review says:
"As the time draws near when once
again the enemy will endeavor to
strike a decisive blow in the west, it
must be emphasized that he will not
be content with mere military opera
tions on a large scale.
"During the past fortnight enemy
submarines have been recalled to
home ports to be refitted and the
most powerful submarine offensive
hitherto undertaken may be expected
to be launched against our lines of
communication with France, to inter-
rupt the steady flow of. men and mu
nitions for our own armies and food
oek,tH Ekaiing " tie @ Period under review,
renewed activity along the entire west
Ern front is noted.
1.-THE region bordering the North
sea has once again become the scene
of severe fighting.
"A carefully co-ordinated operation
undertaken by British monitors act
ing in concert with land batteries in
h. ~ of &I,c
German defenses of Ostend and sur
rounding country to severe bonn
bardment.
aNo infantry action was attempted
in this sector by the British, but later
in the week the Germans reacted
sharply and directed strong assault
against the short sector of the line
in the dune area, which fringes the
coast in the vicinity Of Nieuport. This
attack, which must be considered
broke into the French lines and fo1
something more than a simple raid
a brief period, the enemy detachment
were able to hold their ground in tn,
advanced French outposts. Tn
French speedily brought up fres7
forces, drove out the enemy and wer
able to re-establish themselves il
their former positions without diff
Guilty.
'an the Italian theatre the import
ance of the successful French assault
in the region Of the Monte Tomb
three weeks ago is proved by the re
treat of the enemy in this area.
"rhe enemy has abandoned an es
tensive tract of terrain north of tn
Monte Tomba extending to the Piav,
The Austrian lines now rest on tn
Monte Scinoncia.
"It would appear that the enem
has for the time being abandone
his attempt to break through tn
channel to the plain.
"The Austrians, while still strong
this sector, nevertheless no longer d
rectly threaten the key positions
the Italian line. Increasing ivel
ness Of enemy artillery in the v
Lagarina is recorded It is apparel
that the Austrians are carrying 0,
