Bolsheyism As Il Peace Factor

G OMETIMES good comes out OF evil. There
~ is reason TO believe that when the curtain
is raised on the events taking place in the
central empires it will be found that next to
the operations of the allied forces, the cir
culation OF Bolshevik propaganda has been
the principal factor in wrecking the military
machine which flung its battle line across
continent and threatened the world
One Is so prone to take for granted our
democracy, with its blessings Of equality anu
opportunity. that he is able only partly to
appreciate the mental attitude Of the peas
antry OF Europe. Throughout their lives the
poorer people OF the United States have had
their part OF the elemental things OF life
They have been reasonably clothed and fed
and have had opportunity to better their con-
dition. If at any time they feel that gov
eminent is barring them from the good things
OF the earth, there are recognized legal chan
nels through which popular will can find ex-
preston even to the extent OF changing the
government itself. How different the condi-
ton of the peasants subject to the autocrats
OF the Old World. Oppressed beyond meas
ure, with the door OF hope barred, they have
lacked proper food and clothing from their
infancy and have been without redress.
Is it strange that their minds eagerly re-
ceire and treasure the morbid fancies and
schemes OF extreme socialism? The war
has but increased their hatred for the INNER
classes. In their fury and despair they have
thought dark thoughts. That which found
expression in Russia found an echo in the
hearts of millions in Germany, Austria. Hum
gary, bulgaria and, TO some extent, in Turkey
1t is known now that Bolshevism was I'm
part responsible for the Bulga rian dcbacIe
The ruling classes Of that country knew that
without the entry Of an allied army propcrtv
rights would be destroyed and life itself en-
dangered.

Germany Is the nightmare of the Junkers
On one hand they have the choice OF an
uprising Of Maximalists, which would mean
