An Opportunity Lost.

The demand for constituent as
sembly was one of the main aspira-
-tions of the Russian revolution. 1t
was on the eve of it's realization when
the boishevist revolt, in November,
1917, tore out of the hands of the
people the beautiful possibility to
make laws for themselves, to trace
the path for their future, to construct
new life in accordance with the in
terests of the masses. to strengthen
peace and insure the common welfare
The constituent assembly, elected by
the entire Russian people on the basis
of universal. direct. equal and secret
suffrage, was dispersed by the boil
sheviki with bayonets.
81 undertook it as my task to present
to the American people the tragedy OF
the people of Russia, in order that the
American democracy might render us
the immediate help necessary for re-
establishing democratic order, for
convocation of the constituent as
sebly and creating conditions whereby
peaceful progress may be possible in
Russia. Recalling, with gratitude
the true friendship which the people
of this country have shown me during
my exile in Siberia, 1 appeal to the
people of the United States to helI
my suffering people, the people OF
Russia"

us in the hour of our hardships.
or what nature should this aid be?

Reasons for Appeal to America.

An appeal made to the Amer
lean people for aid at Carne gle Hall,
in New York city, Monday. when she
was the honor guest of the Civic
Forum and the Friends of Russian
Freedom. explains her visit 10 this
country. She gives two reasons why
Russia should be championed by
America. One is that Russia by de-
Tending Europe from the raiding
forces of Asia deserves attention of
all her friends and allies. The second
is that Russia regards America as the
champion of high standards of democ-
racy, which are opposed to despotism
and oppression
Russia, although the most back
ward in her culture" she said. has
rendered such great services to
Europe, and therefore to the whole
world. that she deserves the full at
tention of all her friends and allies.
