SAYS ALLIES HAVE
AIDED BOLSHEVISM.

IA sum- AlllS 10 klAt lAudlltus We
had on the eastern frontiers of Rus
STA and in the south of Europe almost
a hundred millions of people who
were our natural allies, who were
the best possible barrier against
bolshevism, who needed only our ma
terial support and assurance of our
recognition of our ultimate demands
for the future not merely TO check
bolsheviSm east of the Niemen but TO
throw il bac k on Moscow itself. Sub
stantially, we have thrown away the
practical value of this aid: substan-
TALLY. we have permitted these peo-
pie TO diSintegrate and become them
selves material for bolshevism at
home. Instead of erecting a barrier
against this flame coming out of
Russia, we actually assisted in trans
forming these margin states into in
flammable matter.
We cannot no longer count upon
the Poles, the Czecho- Slovaks. the
ROumanians and the Ukrainians as
an adequate or even powerful OBJ
stacle TO bOlshevik advance, and we
have to consider now the possibility
that bolshevism Will in the next few
weeks sweep into all of them and
conceivable overwhelm all Of them.
We know that there is coming a
bolshevik attack. We know that a
great offensive is being prepared by
bolshevists which may at any mo-
ment break upon Poland exactly as
Ludendorff's gigantic offensive broke
upon the British just year ago. We
know, too, that there is not in Po-
land, thanks to the allied folly, any
adequate power of resistance.

sacrifices in men and money. The
people Of the victorious nations said:
