HOW TO BAR OUT BOLSHEVISM.

There is no use in trying to shut ones eyes
to the Bolshevist menace. 1t looms up more
threateningy today than ever before. The Reds y
have mastered the greater part of old Russia.
They have strong army now. They have won
over Hungary, leaping the supposed barrier of
Czecho-Slovokia, Roumania and Ulrania. Ger
man Austria shows sympathy with them. There
is possibility of their yet getting control of
Germany, despite the natural German aversion
to what they represent. Unless the Allies can
check this red wave the Rhine may be its west
ern barrier before the year is ended. And then
what?
France and England are not fertile soil for
this insane propaganda and yet they fear it.
America is still less friendly to it, and yet there
may be danger for America.
The only wise policy is to recognize the peril
and adopt wise measures to cOunteract it. How
can this be done?
The surest thing about Bolshevism is that
it results from the social discomfort that comes
from mass poverty. 1t is fed chiefly by unem-
ployment No considerable mass of workmen
anywhere employed at good wages has joined
the movement.
The inevitable conclusion is that the best
weapon against Boshevism in America is steady
employment
1t must be fought with the twin weapons of
la good job and good pay. This fact must be
recognized and acted on alike by business men
and public men.
The last Congress notorously shlrked its du-
ty of enacting measures intended to guarantee
remunerative work to returning soldiers. 1t is
hoped that the new Congress will make, as
promptly as possible, such amends it can
Business interests everywhere must face their
duty in the matter, keeping their plants running
whenever it is at all possible, employing tn maxi
mum number of men, and making no effort for
the present to reduce wages.

THE DRAFT BOARDS

March 81 the local exemption board that had
charge of the draft passed out of existence, and
while its departure has been without blare Of
trumpets or accompaniment of brass bands, the
day marked the closing of work that was Of tre-
mendous Importance and which all over the
country done with uniformity of efficiency
and Justice that commands our admiration.
We are, naturally more familiar with the ac-
tivities of the Imperial county board than we are
with the records of other boards If the entire
draft machinery is to be judged by the high
standard of endeavor and deep devotion to patri-
otic duty evidenced by the local board then, in
deed has America cause for pride in its democ
racy exercised in a military emergency.
Draft boards have had to stand much uHmer-
tied abuse. Their duties were unpleasant. Some
times they had to send personal friends to war
when those friends and all their relatives
thought they ought to be exempted. Standing
shoulder to shoulder with the draft boards were
the government attorneys who to0 had to look
men in the fact and tell them to go to war.
Considering the personnel of the Imperial
county board-NIessrs. WardlaW, Barton, and
Arfwedson, the latter deceased-the conclusion
is inevitable, that nothing but high sense of
patriotic duty and desire to be of real service
could have persuaded them to go through with
the work.
Certainly no mere monetary consideration
could have induced these men to undertake such
arduous difficult and distasteful service.

VEIL LIFTED.

London, April 4.-The veil lifted
for the public this afternoon from
what for some time past has been
known to be the very serious situa-
ton in North Russia. American
forces, it was stated, had sa-ied for
the Murmansk peninsula and British
reinforcements We're to follow. The
object is the relief of the Allied con-
tingents known as the Archangel
force, which the Bolsheviks have been
attacking for some time past and
against which Trotzky is gathering
strong armies in the hope of COM
pelling surrender while the port of
Archangel still remains icebound.
Until the summer thaws set in
relief can only reach Archangel
from the Murman coast, with par
italy constructed single track rail-
road. The distance between the two
points is nearly 400 miles and most
Of the country is an icebound desert.
The military view is that the re-
lief of Archangel is as important as
the relief of Kut. 1t is hoped Gen
eral Ironside, whose command at
AIchangel is about equivalent to a
division, will be more fortunate than
was General Townsend at Kut, where
TIE attempted relief came too late.
Tcday's news brought a long
simmering controversy as to the
Allied attitude toward Russia to a
head. Advocates Of forcible measures
naturally take a 1--WE told you so"
attitude and lay the blame for the
critical situation now developing on
those who sought to parley with the
Bolsheviks, among whom Lloyd
George and President Wilson are
given the most conspicuous place.
The Westminster Gazette, which is
strongly opposed to anything ap-
Iproacking intervention in Russia, to
day admits that "the present lack Of
policy Of the Allies merely irritates
our enemies without satisfying our
friends"
