Bolshevik Means 1
Am Bigger Than You,'
Says Russian Writer

London, Aug. 23.-In response to
various inquiries as to the exact ety.
rnology and meaning of the word
tolshevik, the following interesting
definition is supplied by man long
resident in Petrograd:
The word bolshevik is a bastard
formation from the word "bolshe," "
the comparative of "bolshoy," which
means big. "Bolshe" signifies, or is
equal to, bigger" The suffix "vix"
is used with substantives to indicate
the agent, e.g, parovik is thing
that works with par, which means
steam; parovik literally signifies
steamer, but in Russia usually
means locomotive. Bolshevik-an
impossible formation from an adjec-
tive-means simply "bigger-er."
Originally contrasted with men
shevik (signifying littler-er). it has
come to have specialized meaning
Of it's own.
Long ago in the socialist demo-
cratic party were two sections, boil
sheviks and Mensheviks: the former
wanted the socialist millennium at
once and were prepared to use any
and all means to get there; the lat
ter sought the same ends step by
step-tfey were the Fabians of the
party.
But for a couple of years past,
ever since, in fact, the eWS took
hold of Russia, bolshevik has gained
a very simple meaning: Il am bigger
than you-hand over" is now the
iull significance of the bolshevik's 5
political creed. Bolshcvism is, of
course, doubly bastard formation
the Greek termination ism tackled
on the impossible bolshevik, and
the equivalent to the un-English
word. "Bigger-er-ism."
The words Bolshevik and Boil
shevism alone to any qualified critic
cf languages affords sufficient proof
that the movements so labeled are
not Russian in origin or growth.
They are alien and the products OF
the alien.
Russian is a language as flexible
as Greek, and, with fuller vocabu-
Try, perfectly capable of expressing
in Russian without bastardising the
mother tongue, any ideas whatever.
But Russians, of all the natonali-
ties affected, have had least to do
with the rise and growth of the
denominations of our day on Russian
territory. These amount in plain
truth to nothing else than Chris
tian pogrom, and are not the product
of Christian brains.

Severe Difficulties
Confront Missionaries
In Philippine Isles

New York, Aug. 50.-(Special)-
Two Episcopal bishops, three priests,
the Episcopal board of missions and
high and low church leaders are
talking about trials for law break
ing, ruin of work long established
in the Philippines. and demanding
that their church, if possible at a
convention soon to be held i'll De-
troit, once for all settle whether the
Episcopal church does or does not
teach the doctrine of the real pres
ence maryolatry, and that Episcopal
ministers can forgive sins. Three
missionaries in the Philippines
taught and practiced these things.
Bishop Graves of Shanghai, in tenn
porary charge in the Philippines,
ordered them to quit doing so.
Bishop Brent of Buffalo, formerly OF
the Philippines, came to the rescue
of the missionaries and asked that if
anybody is to be officially blamed,
let him be blamed.
The three priests or fathers
threaten to leave their posts if they
are not permitted to have their way,
and the low church people at home
ask why they do not obey the laws
of their church and stick to their
work. The official board of mis-
sions must decide, but it is made up
in part of bishops who, in their own
dioceses. hermit the same teaching
complained of in the Philippines, for
example. in Boston, New York,
Philadelphia, Chicago, Fond du
Lac. 1t is said that something of
the same unrest found in political
and labor worlds obtains in the
Episcopal and perhaps some other
churches, and it is known tina: the
Episcopal high church leaders are
bringing forward at this time
almost all of their pet propositions
and demanding decisions.

sidered afterwards as separate
proposition. The guarantee must
be provided at the same time with
the treaty itself.
The covenant is, of course, in the
nature of compromise and like all
compromises cannot be entirely sat
isfactory to all of the parties in
volved, but the covenant itself pro-
vides means for amendment after the
league has been formed. This being
so l would strongly urge the ratifi-
cation of the league of nations cove
nant, without amendments or reser-
vations that would delay peace or
endanger the treaty by making nee
essary its resubmission to the sig
natory nations.
II must thank you for your invi-
tation to join the League for the
Preservation of American 1ndepen-
dence. The title appeals to me for
no one can be more anxious to pre-
serve American independence than /
am. But after examining with care
your declaration of principles l am
surprised to find that the associa-
ton you ask me to join is not
league for the preservation of Amer
lean independence at all, but simply
represents camouflaged attack on
the constitution of the league of ma
tions-the noblest attempt yet made
to bring about harmony and coop
Grafton among the nations OF the
world in the interests of peace and
civilization.
The declaration starts out with
the absolutely false statement that
the constitution of the league of ma
tions would deprive the American
people of basic liberties won by the
Revolutionary war, or subsequently
acquired, among which is their inde-
pendence,
Having thus set up a man OF
straw the attempt is made to knock
him down by the organization of
league ostensibly for the preserva-
ton of American independence,
which is not threatened. So far from
interfering with American indepen-
dence the constitution of the league
of nations attempts to extend to the
whole world the principles of liberty
and Justice for which our fathers
fought and for which we Americans
stand.
Il cannot conscientiously join
your organization; and must urge
with all the earnestness in my power
that the constitution of the league
of nations be promptly ratified by
congress, and feel sure that this is
the desire of the great majority OF
my fellow citizens"

DAVIS THEATRE.

Chauncey Olcott in George NJ. Cohan's breezy comedy, The Voice of Mcconnell will be the attraction at the Davis theatre this evening at S15. The popular Irish star has demon siratcd in this latest vehicle that his vogue is still at it's height for not only have the old admirers rallied around his banner. but he has certainly ac- duired a newer and more cosmopolitan clientele. He has won the latter by sheer merit. for never has he given a better or more artistic performance than in this play by George Conan. It has the merit of fitting his personality, but he has also shown that he is capa- hle of playing light comedy with the best of them. His voice has never been in better trim and he sings the rollick- ing songs of George Conan and the old favorites in manner that calls night ly for numerous repetilions. He has sn excellent supporting company. the largest ever seen in an Olcott play, and the production is a typical Cohan and Harris one Don't wait until it is too late. Get your tickets early.
