ELGIN SAYS
 S0vET'S ROOT
 DEEP IN RUSSIA

According to Moissaye J. Olgin, Russian revolutionist, who has lived through three changes in government in the past four years, Lennine and Trotzky, before signing the Brest- Litovsk treaty and definitely deliver ing Russia to Germany, agreed to throw the support of the Bolshevik government to the Allies, if America and the Allied nations would recog nize them. The recognition never came, so the traitorous document was signed.
 MT. Olgin spoke at the Forum last night and fully explained the Russian situation from the point of view of a Russian of the middle class. A writer of note, the speaker had no difficulty in laying the entire matter before his audience in such & way they could not fail to get the bene- it of his experience.
 Speaking on the political situa ton ne said:
 "The revolution among the peas ants was accomplished by the estab Hshment of peasant councils by enis- saries from Petroerad. The success of the overthrow made it seem that it was driven by instinct Perhaps it is the most pheno1n enaI occurrence in history, this violent assertion of these people, who had so long been mere tools and exploited by the high CT classes.
 Next to the peasants the army is the other great force in Russia. T understand conditions pretty well among the soldiers, because was put out of the University of Kiev and thrown into the army for correction . There were 800 others with me And I want to pay a tribute to these brave men who made the Allies stand at the NIarne possible. They were so poorly equipped in many of their campaigns that four and five soldiers had to use a single rifle.
 But like the peasants, the soldiers did not know what the war was for. term TO make the world safe for democracy
 All during the summer of 1917 the provisional government was thinking of one thing and the Soviets of an cher Then along came the Bol- snevists, who were then regarded as the interectuaIs First they sought out the contentious of the Soviets and went to the constituents and advo- cated an immed ediate constitutional aa- sembly.
 The Soviet represents the three classes in Russia. the worlZingman, the soldier and the peasant. The BoIsheviki are a political party which is striving to impress its influence upon the body.
 But the Russian soviets are deeply rooted in the very hearts of the masses and their strength lies in the fact that they are the people them !selves And they are the people that are waiting for America to stretch her hands over the seas to help them and to see the problems as they really exist"
