q H1ODIElkht 49,
Russia was the great unknown guam
tty In world affairs when the peace
conference started its session In Paris.
Was the giant of nations. with its $780,
400 600 people, rotten to the core with
tbe a%narchistic doctrines of the boil
sbeyists. or was there a sound fabric
In the gigantic ex-autocracy on which
i future state government could be
lbuilt7
Among the American members of the
e delegation the belief was held
that Russia was not entirely corrupted
with the teachings Of Lenine and Trot-
xky. the bolshevik leaders. 1t was be-
lIieyed that Petrograd and Moscow, the
large cities of Russia, were the worst
~centers of anarchism. but that the
great public of Russia were fast tir-
ing of n regime that gave them only
ipromIses and withheld food and put
Industry into q state of s~tagnation.
There were % other political groups
In Russia that opposed Lenine and
Trotzky, and from these cliques II
was hoped that some program could be
developed to the satisfaction of Rus
sla's people, as well as the peace con-
ference, a program that would rejuye-
nate Russia and be the lean of end
ing the ~so-called bolshevik government
In P~etrograd that was e~ndeavoring to
sway, not only Russia. but the whole
world as well.
Declare War on Humanity.
For Lenine and Trotzky. with their
Immediate followers, had declared war
on humanity; had openly announced
It was their intention to send bolshe-
vik missionaries to all civilized ma
tons to preach fair words and IL pos
sible introduce reigns of terror In all
the civilized nations. This threat vas
not taken too seriously by the allied
peace delegation In Paris. But II was
admitted that preachment of ultrarad-
ical doctrines during the trying period
of world rehabilitation was an extra
evil that should be discouraged. No
added burden should be placed on a
world endeavoring to return to the
ways Of peace. particularly when 1t
was definitely known that the bolshe-
vik doctrines. as preached. were en-
tirely different from the same maxims
as practiced. Russia's plight was the
outcome of admitting bolsheyik mis-
sionaries, bringing ruin for Russia and
enrichment to 1enine and Trotzky and
their immediate followers.
Before the war had actually ended
the bolshevik missionaries were start
Ing on their errands of education
Amply provided with gold or securi-
ties dozens OF these revolutionaries
were apprehended when e~ndeavoring
TO pass frontiers leading into allied
territory.
Men attached TO the American peace
delegation In Paris were familiar with
the workings of the bolshevik ma
chine. Our officials had fairly adequate
Russia, especially in Petrograd and
Moscow. and after watching the boil
shevik regime for more than a year
knew that there was only one method
by which the bolsheviki could perpet-
uate their existence. That was by
spreading revolution and not by con-
Quoting a government. for as admin
istrators of government the bolsheviki
had proven their utter lncapacity.
Brought Ruin to Russia.
They had brought rank ruin to Rus
sia, but money into their own Golfers.
They saw more money for themselves
In introducing their doctrines into for
eign lands. They. In short. had made
a paying business OF revolution.
As for Russia, the methods adopted
by the Lenine-T rotzky crowd were In
finitely worse In tyranny and autoc-
racy than anything officials Of the car
had ever inflicted on the long-suffering
population.
