Germany made its Russian peace
with its own puppet government, the
mis-named council of Peoples Conn
missars, the president of which Is
Vladimir Ulianoy (Lenin), the for
eign minister of which Leon Trotsky,
and the ambassador Of which to Ger
many is A. Joffe Germany made
this peace harder upon the Russian
people as punishment to the ambi-
tion of its tools in seeking to become
too powerful and in hoping for little
while not only that Russia would be
delivered over to them, but that they
could double-cross their masters by
turning a stimulated German revolu-
ton into a real one.
But their craftiness was a top in
the hands of rough German force
Germany was actually double crossing
them by negotiating with the Ukrain-
ian Rada at the moment they dream
ed they were tricking Germany.
Germany, however, did not discard
the Bolshevik leaders, recognizing
their further use in the German
world campaign for internal disor-
ganization in the nations with which

AIIGdt
Russia proper has now become.
Lenin, according 10 statements
made public as soon as Trotsky's
spectacular device Of "No peace-no
war failed, always was for peace on
any German terms. He dominated
the situation thereafter and conced-
ed everything that Germany asked.
Nor did Trotsky cease to continue to
obey the German orders delivered to
him both by Gen Hoffman. at Brest-
Litovsk and at Petrograd, directly by
the Russian division of the German
general staff, which was seated in
Petrograd itself from November, and
which was still there in fun opera
tion when | left Monday, March A.
the day that Pctrograd received notI-
fication that peace had been signed
at Brest-Bitovsk by the Russian and
German delegations.
Trotsky, therefore, rests rightly
under the accusation of having stag
ed his theatrical scene as climax to
the Russian disorganization desired
Dy Germany The actual order he
gave was for the immediate demobil-
ization of the Russian army leaving
the German army unopposed
The actual effect Of the work Of
the Bolshevik leaders, moreover, was
to enable Germany to combine it's for
mer army of the Russian front With
It's western army for the launching 6f
its March offensive in France. such
has been the fruition of Russia's Ger
man-directed Bolshevikism.
