BOSTON PLANS TO
WELCOME WILSON
Crowds Eager to Hear His
Speech in Mechanics
Building

Boston, Feb. 22.-More definite
form has been given to the plans for
the visit of President Wilson on
Monday. This was made possible
by the receipt of wireless messages
telling of his wishes and indicating
the probable time of the arrival of
the steamer George Washington.
The President is expected to re-
main in the city only a few hours.
from mid-forenoon to early even
ing. The meeting at Mechanics
building at which he will deliver the
only address of his visit, will be
held in the afternoon, probably at 3
o'clock. President Wilson will speak
extemporaneously and it is under
stood that his address will deal in
general terms wit hhis mission to
France, without detailed reference
to the Peace Conference proceed
ings or the League of Nations. 1t
is expected that the President will
leave on the Federal Express in the
early evening, to enable him to be at
his desk in Washington on Tues
day morning.
With the certainty that thou
sands of applicants for tickets to the
Mechanics building would be dis
appointed in the allotment, prepara-
tions for relieving overflow condi-
tions were made by military and po-
lice authorities. Applications ex-
ceeded 10000 when the time limit
expired last night, with 1000 seats
available for allotment.

SEES GOOD IN
BOLSHEVIK RULE
John Reed, Writer, Admits
Faith Before Senate
Committee

Washington, Feb. 22.-John Reed.
writer who described himself as
a revolutionary socialist" told the
Senate committee investigating law
lessness. agitation yesterday that he
believed the Bolsheviki regime in
Russia was doing great work" and
that he was a firm advocate of a
revolution in the United States. He
followed his wife, Louise Bryant, on
the stand and, like, her, denied
stories of atrocities related by pre-
Vious witnesses.
On cross ss-eXamination, Reed could
not recall that he said last Sunday
in a speech at Yonkers, n. Y, that
three million rifles are in the hands
of three million Russian workmen
and soon three million rifles will be
in the hands of American work.
men to do the same thing that is
being done in Russia"
He also said he couldn't imagine"
himself stating in another speech in
New York that he had started the
Bolshevist movement and soon ex-
pected that there would be some
thing doing" in New York, Balti-
more, Albany, Syracuse, Boston and
other cities of the east.
Reed, who spent some time in
Russia, freely admitted that he was
employed in the International Revo-
lutionary Propaganda Bureau of the
Bolshevist Ministry of Foreign Af-
fairs in Petrograd and told the COM
mittee that he expected to start an
information bureau" in New York
soon.
The witness said in his opinion
the American government as at
present constituted had never been
brought to the real test as to
whether 1t was flexible enough to
admit such great reforms" as those
in Russia and asserted that he fa-
vored the naturalization of industry
and land in this country.

distress in the world is, of course,
greater than ever before and be-

therefore, it is clear that while the
leading men of the world are con-

there is no man or set of men who
can by pencil and paper establish
peace which can endure in the
presence of the distress through

including America with it's 47,000,-
