Are the Allies. and we associated
Americans, at war with Soviet Rus
sia? Germany disposed of. Boil
shevism remains the greatest problem
before the world. In this story l pro-
pose to set forth frankly and without
the usual diploma tic camouflage the
position OF the Allied governments,
and present important information,
that has come to me concerning in
ternal conditions in the vast empire
of mystery and gloom.
France and England are fighting
the Moscow Soviet regime as hard as
they can. Money. munitions. food,
are reaching the two centers of re-
sistance 20 the Bolsheviks in great
quantities and with some regularity.
Admiral Kolchak in the Urals, Gen.
eral Denixin in the Cossack lands in
the South. are making war with rou
bles. food. tanks. airplanes, rifles.
even uniforms. furnished by the
Allies. The principal Russian con-
tribution to their campaigns is the
men who compose their armies.
In addition to maintaining two large
forces of Russians in the field against
Ienine and Trotsky, Britain in the
North and White Seas. France in the
Mediterranean. are enforcing an i'm
pervious blockade against the Boil
sheviks. In all respects save one. the
two great Allied Powers of Europe
are waging implacable war on Mos
COW. But London and Paris are not
sending British and French soldiers
to meet the Red armies in battle.
Armies VIII Not Fight.
French and British statesmen ssek
to conceal the reason why they arc
not supplying armies, in addition to
fleets. munitions and all other sinews
of war. The reason Is simple. The
armies will not fight. France landed
whole division at Odessa: then men
mutinied, and the French Mediterra-
mean squadron as well. Soldiers and
ships hastily were Withdrawn. Brit
ain. at Archangel. has had trouble
with her soldiers, carefully hidden but
more serious than the little fiare-up
among the one American regiment on
the Murmansk coast, and Winston
Churchil's pledge that the troops
there should be withdrawn was neces-
sary to prevent open mutiny.
The position of the French and Brit
ish governments toward the Bolshe-
viks is that they desire to make war
in every way possible. but that Tom
my and Poilu, unspeakably weary aft
er FIVE years of terrific battles. will
not fight in the frozen wastes Of ST.
IBERIA or the boundless steppes of the
Ukraine for a cause they do not un-
derstand. France and England do'not
care what form OF government re-
places the Bolsheviks! so long as il is
stable, will pay the debts of old Rus

and after he had come up for the

him never to show his face around

Take the case of Cook-a good and
