B0lSheUiSIn WeakenS
By BRIGGS
TTrom the Philadelphia Press ]

IFrom the Philadelphia Press
Though experience has taught eau
ton in accepting reports of military
setbacks to Bolshevist forces in Rus
sia, the number and persistence of
such reports in the recent news may
not be ignored They involve not only
the defeat of the Russian Soviet
armies on several fronts. but the
practical overthrow of Hungary's
Bolshevik regime through the pres
sure of Rumanian and native SOL
diery. Quite illuminating, too, is
the protest of the anti Bolshevist
Government at Archangel against
the plan to feed the Russian people
when the moment of victory is
near for u.s.
What the Peace Conference thinks
of the situation it is impossible to
discern. The rumor that Mr.. Lansing
has urged the recognition of the
kolchak Government is inconsistent
in many ways with the plan to sell
food to Bolshcvist Russia through
the agency of the Norwegian Com
mission with DR.. Nansen at its head.
Can the Allies give money, food, war
materials and military advice to Kol-
chalk for use in his campaigns
against the Bolsheviki and at the
same time arrange Il military truce
and food sales with Lenine? Or
have the setbacks which Lenine is
supposed to have suffered recently
caused the Peace Conference to re-
consider it's plan to deal with him.
In either course there are obvious
dangers, not the least of which is
that Bolshevik Russia and dis
gruntled Germany may effect the
alliance which is already threatened.
The apparent weakening of the Boil
shevist hold on Russia is encouTag-
ing only insofar as it holds out the
hope that it may be entirely uproct-
ed in time. But for present purposes
it can only he said to have compli-
Gated situation which has thus far
| baffled all the efforts of European
statesmen to deal with it. .-

Politicians Are Worried

[From the Pittsburgh Dispatch
The first year of the city manager
plan of municipal government in
East Cleveland ended recently and
citizens of the town believe they
have left the experimental stage be-
hind in the results achieved. The
city manager has sent out his re-
port of work done with recommen-
dations for future functioning and
the residents are so well pleased that
they consider themselves through
with the old methods of town ad-
ministration. Those of a decided po-
litical diathesis confess themselves
suffering from ennui at times be-
cause of enforced inaction at. their
old trade of trying to put the other
gang out or trying harder to keep
their own gang from being thrown
out, but everybody else seems cheer
fully satisfied. The towns business
has been attended to better than
ever before and public work has been
put through with celebrity that has
almost amazed the old-fashioned
contractors who are unaccustomed to
business habits in municipal enter
prises.
The town was sharply divided by
political factions and the city man
agership aroused, the hostility of all
them, but like good sports all hands
consented to "lay off on the fighting"
until the new man had been allowed
time to demonstrate that one man
ager is better than a regiment or
isn't, or that one man responsible
for everything is better than q long
string of more or less decorative en-
ployes at good salaries responsible
only to their faction chiefs. A truce
was agreed upon to give the city
manager a fair opportunity. Now
that the fipst report is before the
citizens the opinion seems to be that
he has done well. but that more than
single years success is needed to
convince the politicians that the old
crowds might not be better after ALL
But-the city manager is to be kept
until he shows signs of failure and
if he never gets into administrative
distress East Cleveland will never
go back to the old ways. The first
report settles that.

The Lesson of Sacrifice

Canada knows the meaning of
sacrifice for service as never before,
for sixty thousand Canadian lads
paid the supreme sacrifice. All over
the land are Abrahams who offered
up their sons, Rachaels who weep for
their boys, Naomis who lament their
husbands.
Canada now has her Westminster
Abbey. 1t is not the vaulted nave
and dimly-lit aisle in Old London.
1t is the vaulted sky and where pop
pies grow in Flanders and little
crosses raise their heads in France.
Th:thGr multitudes shall wend
their way as all now visit it in spirit.
And the light that shines above it is
the radiance of the Cross.
The boys who come back hold it in
precious memory. They were COM
rades and their heads burn within
them as they hold communion with
the immortal dead. In the soul of
the returned soldiers is a sense of
reality. He was not fighting sham
battles over there.
The returned soldier understands
the meaning CT the Cross.-The Rev.
s. f. Dixon, of Stirling. Ont, in
the Brooklyn Eagle.

THREE MEN O. MERRI

There were three men o. Merri
That lies along the sea:
They sv ore-the oath of salt and wind
That they would hold them free
From wcman's charms and woma MS
arms
And woman's witchery.
Ard Eric met fisher lass
A-walkin on the sands;
THE sea is loneliness" she said
And touched him with her hand,
And smiled into his blinded eyes
And wed him to the land.
And Fetri watched Abold girl dance.
With paint upon her lips;
The light fell from the tavern lamp
And touched her finger tips
Like marriage gold. Another man
Halls out in Petri's ships.
And Barrac, of the heart of brass,
Red named and huge of arms.
He laughed and. kissed womans
lips
And found them fresh and warm
And went across the little hills
And squatted on a farm.
The moral of this simple tale
Is plain enough to see;
There is no oath to bind a man
From woman's witchery--
At least 7 know that it is so
In Nerri. by the sea.

Post.

SINCE capital punishment seems

common prudence. There the Con-

with multitude of precedents to

IF PEACE HAD NOT COME

IF THE war had not ended last
Fall. if peace had not come
II through the heroic sacrifices of
our brave men in France, every one
of us would be now buying Liberty
bonds and mortgaging our very
clothing to do so. Look back to the
Liberty loan which preceded the
signing of the armistice, when Ii
looked as though a year or two
more of war would be necessary to
finish the Hun. What happened?
Why, everybody bought to his last
penny.
And now where are we? Why,
the American soldiers, sacrificing
themselves in numbers exceeding for
the time of their participation in
the war and the units engaged, those
of any other nation among the allies,
brought the war to an end that no.
body could have foreseen and not
the most optimistic would have fore
casted when they entered. They
smashed the, German army year
ahead of schedule. In that they
saved us much blood and treasure.
They made it possible for us to clean
up the war debt with one loan in
stead of two, or three, or four.
We are getting off lightly no mat
ter how many bonds we buy. The
soldiers paid unstintingly to bring
this about, and they did not get
interest at the rate of 4A per cent,
either. Their expenditure was life,
and blood and youth, and what they
spent they will never have returned
TO them. 1t is gone forever.
What pikers we would be, if we
declined to buy Victory bonds TO
the extent of our ability!

Newspapers and the Loan

"On the eve of another Liberty
Loan campaign l am glad to express
the appreciation of the Treasury De-
partment of the patriotic co-opeEa-
ton rendered by publishers in jail
the loan campaigns. The newSpa-
pers, the press associations and the
magazines carried the message of
the Government into every home.
Their assistance was invaluable and
without it the loans could not have
been the great triumphs they were.
The work which remains to be
done is fully as important as that
which has already been done. Onr
fighting men have finished their task,
but it is essential that the war bills
be paid and that the honor of Amer
lea be kept unsullied. / have no
doubt that the publishers of America
will give to the Victory Loan the
same patriotic support that marked
their effective assistance ir the past" 4"
