Nikolai Lenine's hopes for worldwide

Liberator in the first article purporting
70 he written by the dominant Boil
shevist that has appeared In this coun-
try. Lenine explains the surrender OF
Brest-I.itovsk as a crafty device in the
interest Of the ultimate victory Of So
cialists over the bourgeoisie OF all coun-
tries, and makes a thinly yelled appeal
to the workingmen Of America to follow
the Russian Bolsheviki. He predicts
general European revolution in the near
future.
He couples Samuel Gompers' with
Scheidemann as a betrayer of the prole-
tariat, and praises Eugene V. Debs, for
mer Socialist candidate for President,
who was imprisoned at Cleveland for
violating the espionage law. He asserts
that the allied Governments left Russia
to the mercy Of Germany by failing to
accept the Soviet invitation to make the
Brest-Litovsk meeting general peace
conference.

We are counting on the inevitability
Of the international revolution. But that
does not mean that we count upon its
coming at some definite, nearby date.
We have experienced two great revolu-
lions in our own country. that Of 1905
ana that OF 1917, and we know that rev.
buttons can come neither at a word of
command nor according to prearranged
plans. We know that circumstances
alone have pushed US, the proletariat OF
Russia. forward. that We have reached
this new stage IN the social life OF the
world not because OF our superiority, but
because OF the peculiarly reactionary
character OF Russia. But until the out
revolutions in individual countries may
SIN meet with number OF serious set
hacks and overthrows.

Normal Number Doubled.

One Of the reasons for this Is the fact
that the mortality reflected from the in
fuenza epidemic was greater among per-
sons between the ages of Is and 35, and
the policies held by these persons had
been in force for only few years and
little reserve had been accumulated
against them. Several of the compa niles
with headquarters in New York have es-
t!mated the number of claims filed for
the period mentioned, where the cause
Of death is given as influenza and pneu-
mona, at equal to or in excess of the
normal number of claims. or. in other
words. their total claims for the three
months would be double the normal
figure.
The Metropolitan Life. for example
estimated the total number Of policies
involved In claims already filed at $4,000
calling for payments totalling $4,000
900. The Prudential Life Insurance Com
pany OF Newark estimated the total
mortality among its policy holders for
the three months. due to influenza OF
pneumonia. at 10000. representing sl2,-
900, 600 face value OF policies
Partially complete reports from more
than twenty OF the companies repre-
scented in New YORK city show a total OF
lives lost through the epidemic of 100 001
and claims amounting 10 more than $50.
900. 900 Ii was estimated that when re-
turns are complete the total lives lost
may reach 100000, representing claims
OF nearly 800, 900.

Some of the larger companies. the

States, have been so hit by the cpl

Of their own clerical forces, that they
have been unable to date to compile the
actual number of claims and their esti-
mated losses are frankly declared to be
conservative.
These. companies, however. have
ample financial resources to meet the
Demands made upon them, but the

particularly true Of the smaller com
