The government of Gen. Manner
helm. which was established after a
bitter campaign against Russian-bo
stored and Russian-led bolshevik
forces has gone to great lengths in
re-establishing order in Finland.
With food. large part of which was
furnished by Mr.. Hoover. through the
American commission for relief, and
with work, the Finnish bolshevists,
who in the main were forced into err
ing paths by the tremendous influx
of Russians. have long since seen the
error of their ways and are well con-
tent to resist any attempts at further
bolshevik incursion.
Bolshevism and Russian preachments
mean hunger, terror, murder and lust,
according to M. de Julin. who warns
people of the United States against ac-
ceptance of false theories.
'When I hear some Of your theorists
and doctrinaires talking for bolshevism
with beautiful phrases I feel always that
they cannot know what they are saying.

rid of the thing by getting rid of the
bolshevists-not. however. by murder or
torture. You see most Of this bolshe-

leaders, Russian soldiers, Russian agi-

M. de Julin's Mission in q. S.
M de Julin is in the United States
for the purpose of Strengthening the
friendly and commercial bonds be-
tween the two countries. Finland is
largely dependent upon the outside
world for her food stores. in return
for which she gives her pulp and dairy
products, which go broadcast over
countries with which Finland has
commercial agreements. There is a
great market in Finland for Ameri-
can goods. and this country in turn
might be a favorable market for Fin
land If there is clearer understanding
of Finland's wares, according to M
de Julin.
