BOLSHEV|SM |s NOT !. DEMOCRATIC WILSON

WASHINGTON, May 3.-What sup port bolshevism has obtained is as cTibed by Secretary Wilson to the mis- taken belief that it is mocratic, in a letter to James Wilson, president of the International Association of Pat ternmakers who wrote to ask what was the source of the secretary's informa ton on which be hased a recent speech at the Brooklyn navy yard, denounc- ing bolshevism. Secretary Wilson re- piled with extensive quotations from utteraEces by Nikolai Denine. These, he said, showed that the new social order advocated in Russia really means dictatorship, either of the individual or the few and not the rule of the majority as frequently supposed.
 T am sure" Secretary Wilson de- clared,' that no sane American whose mind has not been perverted by self interest, would for a moment think of displacing the orderly processes of progress of, for and by the people, which our institutions provide. for this wild scheme of autocracy based upon the assumption of superior knowledge of the needs or wants of he proletariat, and which takes no COS Tizance of the possibility of the dictators changing their minds, or being succeeded by other dictators without a different viewpoint"

VERSAILLES, May 3.-The erection of barricades in "the German quarter Of Versailles, designed 70 prevent any of the Germans from straying off the section assigned to them, began this morning.

ROME, Friday, May 2.-Newspapers favorable to the government protest against the continuation by the peace conference of negotiations with the German delegates, without the partici- patton of Italy, because they say, it violates the treaty between the allies, forbidding a separate peace. Tribuna says:
 '"rhe allies are pledged to us by a sacred treaty. They cannot sign a peace. without us, and they cannot make a separate peace without reason. President Wilson may be an autocrat, but not to the point of imposing shame of treason upon Great Britain and France"
 The Idea Nazionale asks how the peace conference could declare he league of nations approved unani- mously last Monday when Italy was absent; how the conference could as sign Kiao Chau to Japan, when Italy was not present and how the confer ence can present the preliminaries of peace to the German delegates without Italy acting with them. The newspaper adds:
 '"The conference places itself outside the alliance of Italy. Italy must an swer by the annexation of the terri tories she claims"

WaY Behind Fourth loan

Way Behind Fourth Loan
 At the end of the second week of the fourth Liberty campaign, when the total sought was one-third greater than now, the nation had subscribed g., ,269,S76,OO0 or 37.S3 per cent.
 1rs response to pressing inquiries today, as to the countrys attitude con- corning the progress of the loan, of ficials explained that subscriptions were not piling up as fast as they had hoped when they arranged a loan of comparatively small size. They said they were "a bit concerned" over the record of the past two weeks, but not to an extent that they were ready It this time to sound a note of positive alarm.
 One of the most hopeful signs is that many individuals are buying Victory notes and indications are that the sub scripions tabulated to date include what is considered a rather small per centage of purchases by banks or big corporations.
 For example, S56,00o of the 1,S40,000 railroad employees in the United States have subscribed and the proportion will increase greatly on final reports, it was announced, by the railroad admin istration. A ruling by the internal revenue bureau today is expected to have a stimulating effect on sub scriptions. This ruling was to the eff feet that Victory notes are admis- sable assets for invested capital, in computing war profits and excess pro- 1 fits taxes.
 Riots Stimulate People 1 Cleveland campaign managers today reported that the riots of radicals there | on May Day had stimulated Victory note sales on the part of many citizens as a protest against the rioters. New Englands total, including only eleven days of selling, reached s170, 100000, of which $100, 0,000,000 had been 1 taken in Massachusetts alone.
 The New York district showed c gain today of s43, 600 over yester- day. This brings the total for the dis trict to date to s37S, ,906r250. New York City alone has subscribed s265, 900
 Anticipating a great flood of sub scriptions in the last week of the Vic tory Liberty loan campaign, the Vic tory ship, now off the coast of Centra | America, and nearing the Panama canal, is preparing for the dash tC New York.
