AS to kolchak, the following ex-
pressive opinion is uttered:
Just now tremendous campaign
is being wagcd by enemies of the Rus
sian working people aiming at the
recognition of a military Russian ad
venturer as the ruler in Russia. Those
IN favor of such recognition do not stop
at anything in their efforts. By un-
blushing lies they are trying to over
come the doubts America quite nat
urally has.as to their propositions BY
similar methods they are trying to in
cite America against the Russian work
ers. 1t will be our task to .counterac
these attacks against Soviet Russia and
to aid the American people in forming
an intelligent judgment of the prob
lens presented by the Russian revolu-
ton.'

VIII KOlchak?

Discussing the contention that
Kolchak will restore order the writer
says:
"Recognition of Kolchak is being ad-
vocated also in the interest of order
Yet it cannot have escaped any ones
attention that reports coming from
the territory occupied by Russian
counter revolutionists, such as Kol-
chak, Denikine and others, speak of
Reorganization, misery and privation
of most desperate nature. Consider
ing the fact that Kolchak and his CO.
workers get from the Allies every kind
of material support; that there is an
American Railway Commission busy
trying to rehabiitate the Siberian
Railway; that General Denikine's forces
communicate with the Allies through
the ports Of the Black Sea, and that
supplies of all kinds are being con-
stantly sent to these ports, it is quite
significant that we find such chaos
there and that we are able to con-
trast it with the order prevailing in
Soviet Russia, which is suffering under
an absolute blockade Yet this does
not seem to disturb the equanimity of
men who want the establishment of
Kolchak's rule in the interest Of

"How is the voice heard" Mr.. Isaacs
was asked, "by the wireless telephone,
and how is it all done?"
THE voice is heard" he replied,
"just the same as it is over the ordi-
nary telephone.
From aeroplanes the observer can
speak continuously from the air to
men on the ground Generally, the
distance has been only few miles,
but greater distances are already prac
tlcablc. In fact, we, from this office in
the Strand are talking by wireless
with Chelmsford daily, and Mr.. Mar
conf has talked to Africa from Italy,
distance of $50 miles.
There is no limitation of distance
for wireless telephony. 1t is now only
question of adjusting mechanical con-
trivances before we can telephone
across the Atlantic, and even greater
distances. There is no doubt that, had
we not all had our hands absolutely
full with the work which was essential
to win the war, we should long ago
have established n wireless telephone
service between England and America.

he wanted to see if he could not get

remained on board and continued to

every day of the war with the regular
ity and about the time Of afternoon
tea. Mr.. Isaacs explained how it was
done.
''In Berlin" he said. "the authori-
ties sent out to the world all day long
messages, propaganda and general
news of what was transpiring in Ger
many. The whole world was waiting
for this news, for there was no other
means at the time of knowing what
was happening. Day and night they
sent out the news by wireless, and day
and night we sat down here, at Mar
conf House in the Strand. and took
down every word they sent.

ceived consisted of four words, War

message of six words, War declared

later, again came the third message,

"Thc last message we received at s

mistice signed. All hostilities to cease
at o'clock. This message came from
French headquarters on November II.
and was received at Marconi House
practically at the same instant that
Marshal Foch sent it out"
New-York tribune., 1919-06-15
''Paris Circles''

The editorial goes on to quote a
statement made by the Russian
Commssar Of Foreign Affairs, NJ.
Tchitcherin, who denies that Kol-
chak's forces are advancing but
are really retreating, that there
have been no fires in Petrograd as
has been reported and that Paris
circles hinder President Wilson
from receiving the truth" about
Russia
Concluding, the editorial explains
.Kolchak's "short lived successes" in
the following manner:
1--WE might add that the short-lived
successes of Kolchak's army are very
easily explained. In a speech delivered
in the fall of 1918 before the Petrograd
Soviet published in The New York
CALI of April 1S) Trotzky openly out
lined the Soviet governments plan Of
military campaign for the winter He
pointed out that before spring the
Soviet republic could not be threatened
from the north or from the east and
that the centre of attention for the
winter will be directed toward the
south Now after a Soviet republic
has been firmly established in Ukraine
and Denikine and Krasnoff are hard
pressed in the Don region, the Soviet
government has once more turned its
attention to Kolchak's forces in the
east. From now on there will be no
more successes for Kolchak"
Both magazines touch, of course,
on many other phases of the battling
Russian problem, but the real fight
is-Kolchak or Lenine? Which?
New-York tribune., 1919-06-15
All the World

The editorial goes on to say that
the Russian policy Of the Allies is
something which vitality affects the
whole world situation. "Steps taken
in pursuance Of that policy if they
are not based on actual facts are
apt to bring disaster to the world as
a WHOLE" asserts the writer.
A Russian policy, the writer con-
tinues, is being contemplated by the
Allies involving, "as we are told, the
recognition of the so-called Omsk
government, with all the conse-
quences of this step" The idea of
granting recognition to Kolchak,
the editorial observes, is based on
these allegations: First, that the So
Wet government does not represent
the majority of the Russian people
and that Kolchak does; second, that
Soviet Russia is in state of anarchy
and that Kolchal will bring order
third, that the power Of the Soviet
government is waning, and that Kol-
chak's strength is increasing.
AS to the first contention, the
writer quotes "The New York
Globe" of May 81, which carries a
dispatch from Moscow, sent by its
correspondent, Isaac Don Levine,
who "before he went to Russia was
quite prejudiced against the Soviet

"Innumcrable instances of conspic-

may be cited as trivial: A ship was

'callcd' for assistance. He got into

help would reach them in about four
hours. He WAS then directed by the
captain TO leave the ship, as every one
