Peasant VS.. Proletarian

Most of the current comment on re-
cent developments in Hungary fails cor
rectly to gauge the intricate problems
because it treats those problems one
sidedly, from a purely political or doc
trinaire point of view. There is failure
to appreciate 'the fundamental truth
that wherever you scratch a mid -Eu-
ropean difficulty you find the land ques-
ton.
The principle of peasant proprietor
shlp-for which the peoples of Europe
were clamoring for four or five hundred
years--was first applied in a thorough
going fashion during the French Revolu-
ton. France restored the soil to those
who till it. AS result France TODAY
has large, prosperous and conservative
peasantry, which is politically and eco
nomically the backbone of the country.
The French soldier defended against the
Hun invasion not only his nation and
country, but his land as well. The
scientific application of the same prin-
ciple has in a few years rendered little
Denmark, but poorly endowed by nature
one OF the richest and most cultured
commonwealths Of the world. One won
ders what chance a dictatorship of the
proletariat," an urban invention. would
run in country like Denmark. where
proletariat in the orthodox Lenineitc
sense is practically non-exstent. where
the cottager owns piano and sends his
son and daughter to a university ex-
tension course.
Hungary has been country Of big
landed estates. A few dozen noble fami-
lies owned the tillable land and ran the
government, national and municipal.
Peasant proprietorship has been almost
unknown. Oppressive landlordism, COM
bined with monstrous system of ma

over by imported Prussian militarism.
has made Hungary disgrace and
menace in Europe. The victory of the

Achievements They were compiled, so the
commissioner stated, in the closest co0per-

represented his policies The commissioner
himself was a man trained to his lob. The
experiments inaugurated were of the very
highest promise. Although 1 had studied

The report for 1915 gave the deeper rea-

tented peasantry who have stake in
their country and it's institutions, sue
cumbed to Bolshevsm at the first test
OF its power Of resistance.
Modern civilization rests on the pro-
ducton of goods. A year and half Of
Bolshevik regime in Russia proves that
once the incentive to production, or
rather to the efficient organization Of
production, is eliminated, civilization
crumbles away, if it does not tumble
down with a crash. If Europe is to have
barrier to Bolshevism in the East, that
barrier should be founded, politically, on
the principle of satisfied nationalism,
and, economically, on the principle of
peasant proprietorship and dffused

Give 1t Time, Give 1t Time.


Sir The first and most essential duty of
a government is to love the people and to
procure them the real advantages of life,
which are plenty and pleasure. To accom-
plsh this object it would. suffice to inspire
every one with the unvarying principles of
rectltude; but as all might not observe them.
the state should explain the manner of fol-
lowing these precepts and enforce obedience
by wise and inf1exible laws In order to pre-
vent the oppression of man by man, the
state should take possession Of all the re-
sources Of the empire, and become the sole
master and employer. The state should take
the entire management of commerce, indus
try and agriculture into its own hands, with.
the view of succoring the working classes
and preventing their being ground to the
