Berlin, April l9.--(Ry Mail The
Russia soviet government will handon
bolsheyism II il finds that doctrine is
not the proper method to reach its goal,
communism, M. Makowski, boIshevik
secret agent in Berlin, said in an inter-
view today.
"The bolshcviki have no definite pro
gram, since Premier Lcninc holds that
what is medicine for this country to-
day may be poison tomorrow and plat
forms cannot be made permanent. said
Makowski
THE aim of the bolsheviki is eom-
munsm and equality for everybody. We
may find out eventually that bolshcvisBl
is not the proper means for attaining
our end. We will then act accordingly
and somehow reach communism by OPP
portunism, but always work toward
communism.
eve believe that ultimately every
thing must be specialized. Everything
must belong to the state and no one
must own anything A person may nave
anything he wants simply by asking for
IT, That is our utopia, which we may
not reach for long time, ofcouFse.
Says Capital Is Enemy.
"We hold that the greatest enemy
of communism is the cGpi.alistic sys-
TEN. Naturally the capitalists viii not
divide up equally, so we are abolishIng
individual capitalists and making the
state the only capitalist. Since the state
exists for everybody, the entire proiet-
ariat benefits We make everyone pro
letrian, or worker, either with lMsis
hands or their heads. The capitalist
whose wealth is taken over by the state
becomes member Of the proietariat as
skilled head Of plant.
'sThgt is the point we have reached in
Russia. We cannot make the complete
step TO communism in one stride. 20 we
have begun by socializing practically all
the wealth. A few industries are still
unsocialized, When they have been TAX
en- over, aud all the wealth is tsasn
over and production has been brougut
up a point above normal, we will ab0l-
ish money and win simply give every
man what he wants. Until we have pro-
duced enough of everything so that ev-
eryOne has all he desires, We will have
TO use money or card system Of dis-
tributon. In some things we already
have the card system. But we are auto
matieally getting money out OF use by
printing II as fast as we can. As soon
us We can get more machines from
America we will print still more. Event
ually it will become 50 plentiful and
worthless that nobody will want it. BY
that time our system Of state prodae-
ton will be so developed that there will
be more than enough Of the necessities
of life for everyone. The luxuTies viii
be distributed by the card system.
Credit Will Be Worthless.
eeOf course, our credit with otner
countries will be worthless at first. Bat
VIC win buy what VIC need with gold
and Jewels which the state now controls.
You can have our gold We do not want
it. We are glad to get rid of It. it
represents capital, and we viii gladly
pay you everything that represents
money value, until we have nothing Of
the kind left. Then we win deal by
credit. The state will own everything
and by then we figure other states will
of necessity be in the same status. At
least all Of Europe win be so. II cannot
possibly get out from under the debts
which this war hcGped upon IT,
eOnly communism can save Europe,
although Great Britain and America
probably can emerge from their load Of
debts with a capitalstie system, since
they are not so far in debt and csn prof
ii by trade. They win be the oonscrva-
tive test which will be pitted against
communist Europe.
