Nokolai Lenine, who. it is ru-
mored, intends to retire from the
premiership of the Bolshevist gov
eminent, has been the dominant
figure in Russian affairs since the
rise of the extremists and the over
throw of the Kerensky regime in
November, 1917. Lenine, or to give
him his real name, Ulianoff, is the
son of priest of the Greek church
and was brought up in Moscow.
While he was still student at the
university he began to spread So
cialist propaganda among the
workmen, and in this he met with
considerable success, particularly
in Petrograd. His activities brought
him under the ban of the imper-
ial government and he was forced
to fee to Switzerland. When the
war broke out he carried on his
revolutionary propaganda among
the Russian soldiers, receiving lib
eral financial aid from Germany.
This was carried on until the Rus
sian revolution, when he returned
to Petrograd and led the extrem-
lists in their successful efforts to
overthrow the provisional govern
ment.
