T aHsOlS fAdiietii IitS'p' 49,,
Paris, May 5--The policy of the
peace conference toward Russia has
been a failure. The Russian problem
remains absolutely unsolved- Why
To find the correct answer to this
question we must frst realize where
in the Russian problem consists
About the regime which the Bolshe-
visit have established in Russia. We
may have the most varied ideas; we
may admire or condemn it--hut one
point all agree-namely that the Boil
shevisist regime rests upon principles
Numerically opposed TO the prtnci'
pies upon which the Western Demo
cracies are founded. and for which
they have fought in this way.
The fundamental principles Of the
Western democracies are hose of
eQuality--moral and political--of all
social classes, freedom of the press
the right Of assembly. and the nviol-
ability OF private property.
To these principles the Bolshevists
oppose their doctrine of the superior
ity and privileges of the working
class, the dictatorship OF the prole-
tariat, and a communist regime.
In short. Bolshevism may be de-
fined as "aristocracy revised" In
which the proletariat represents the
privileged class,
These things granted, we can
quickly comprehend why the Idea OF
conference on Prinkipo fFrinces)
Island was a mistake. Conversations
and discussions may be possible be-
tween individuals or nations who ad-
here to the same principles and merely
differ as tn their application, but they
are impossible between two sides sc
/ fundamentally and unequivocally ir
opposition to each other on the mair
principles.
How can accord be found between
governments which consider equalit,
and property sacred. and govern.
ment which wants to abolish both
In the very nature of things, the two
sides must look at each question ant
each possible solution in a differen
light That which is considered jus
by one side would be regarded as alb
surb by the other.

could not have arrived at any har-
monious conclusion. because the two
parties would have spoken different
languages
INVASION NOT NECESSARY
Must we. then, admit that as Rus
sian refugees and certain politicians
in all entente countries assert. it is
necessary to declare war on Boil
shevism and invade Russia. I do not
think so.
War on Bolshevis1n today Is impos-
sible-not because Bolshevism is
too strong from a military view
point; not because Russia, in her
very vAstness- is immune against all
attacks but because the western
democraciee lack the necessary base.
or bases of operation.
The world war had demonstrated
that Russia was better protected
against invasion than she was al the
time OF Napoleon, but that modern
civilization has created the means to
overcome space. which proved so
catastrophal. to Napoleon, Germany
and Austria within less than three
years invaded and destroyed the i'm
mense empire of the Cars,
But is Russian invasion is today
possible. the base from which TO &C
complish 1t is central Europe.
We cannot approach the.immensity
of Russia through Archa el Odessa
or even vladivosrok. At0kked from
these extreme points, the Rolshe-
visits will always be able to defend
themselves with comparative ease,
even IL their armies are weaker
numerically.
What, then. are we to do, il war is
impossible. if there are no means TO
bring about negotiations? That is the
problem which the peace conference
has been unable to solve and which
II has judged insoluble---for nothing
has been done toward solving II since
the abortive attempt at conference
on Prinkipo Island.
But, as this writer sees it. the
problem Ia by no means as insolubie
as II appears
