Another contradiction is to be found
in the stories that come of conditions
In Russia. American commissioners,
and most of the press reports, have
led us to believe that there was little
to be found there but murder, anar-
chy, riot and starvation. Agents Of
the French government returning from
Russia report that wholesale massa-
ores have ceased generally, that order
prevails and industries are being re-
sumed. 1t is said that even the rail-
roads are returning to something like
normal service, trains being run be-
tween Moscow and Petrograd on
scheduled time Conservative infu-
ences are making themselves manifest
In every direction in Russia, it is said,
and officials in power appear to real
lie the necessity of recognizing indi-
vidual rights to property in order to
maintain their authority.
A bolshevik commissioner told the
correspondent mentioned above that If
the allies would withdraw their sup
port from those who are opposing the
soviet government the civil wars
would end in thirty days, the gran
aries Of Siberia would be opened, the
army demobilized, the factories start
ed again and the present want and
misery ended.
Dispatches from Paris indicate that
the allied peace delegates are slowly
changing their opinion concerning the
Russian situation, though not in the
least minimizing the threat of boil
shevism to the rest of the world.
Stephen Pichon, foreign minister, told
the French chamber of deputies that
the policy of the allies in Russia was
not war" but a "pacifying" policy
and designed to save Russia from the
grip of Germany.

One feature that gives the authorl-

writes that If the bolShevists can
bring food to the hungry people there
they can retain their control; that If
they fail there will be another revolu-
ton. Is it true, then. that hunger is
the food on which bolshevism thrives?
When the Hungarian revolutlonists
made overtures to the people of Ger
man Austria, the latter replied they
could not adopt bolshevism because
they were dependent on the allies for
their food-the inference being that II
they were not thus dependent they
also would set up a soviet govern
ment.

The league of nations commission,
with President Wilson in the chair,
completed It's consideration of the
covenant of the league Wednesday
night. 1t was turned over to a draft
ing committee which was to go over
1t carefully and return 1t to the COM
mission for final consideration before
it was reported to the executive COM
mittee Of the peace conference. Many
proposed amendments to the original
plan were considered, including seven
suggested by Charles f. Hughes and
those drafted by former President
Taft. 1t was understood that Mr.. Will
son had deferred the presentation Of
amendments safeguarding the Monroe
doctrine and exempting domestic
questions from the leagues jurisdc-
ton. No amendment has been incor-
porated that specifically meets the de-
mands Of Japan for recognition of the
equality of nationals.
Among the amendments adopted was
one providing that the offices Of the

If the treaty with Germany is such
as 1t is supposed TO be, Germany will
refuse TO sign it. Anyhow, that is
what the press and many of the lead
ers say. Doctor Dernburg of unsav-
DRY memory, declares the German peO-
pie will not accept a treaty of peace
that is not inspired by impartiality,
justice and a spirit of reconciliation
and that does not contain league Of
nations into which Germany is admit
ted with full rights. Doctor Schiller,
minister of finance, says he has taken
solemn oath that the government
will not surrender one inch of German
territory. The Prussian national assem-
bly, has voted against the relinquish-
ment of any Of the Rhine territory, es-
pecially the Saar basin. All over the
country meetings are being held, or
ganized by Foreign Secretary Brock
dorff- Rantzau, to protest against an
"enslaving peace" This movement,
in which all factions are joining, is
being used to reawaken the national
spirit, and the threat of spreading
bolshevlSm If the demands Of the Ger
man people are not met is being used
by the leaders to intimidate the inter
allied peace delegates. The latter,
however, do not seem especially wor-
ried, evidently taking it for granted
that Germany will have to accept any
treaty they formulate. If the Ger
mans do submit to bolshevism, 1t will
be of their own free will, and mainly
in spite and not because they pre-
fer that form of government"

Frank critics of the peace confer

on those idealists who undertook to
remodel the entire world and bring
about the millennium at once in
stead Of first making peace and per-
hitting the beligerent nations to re-
sumo the ordered activities of civil
tied existence. That the gentlemen
gathered in Paris have recognized
their error Is apparent in their present
haste TO complete the peace treaty
and have It signed. They will, accord

Mayors Solicitade.

Alderman Quinn. who battled in the
Board OF Aldermen last year for the
complete elimination of theatre ticket
spectators, has been attending show $
himself lately. end has discovered that
the spectators are at work again. In
n statement yesterday he charged the
police with failing TO enforce the ordi-
nance which was sponsored by District
Attorney Swami allowing them so cents
above the regular sale price. He knows
OF one instance where a sale of a seat
for s25 was achieved by a sidewalk
operator.
There is no reason why this condition
should exist unless these theatrical
parasites are given to understand that
they can sell their tickets at the best
prices obtainable by those who have the
authority to enforce the law" he said
Here is an opportunity for our brilliant
Mayor to prove further his solicitud,
and love for the rights of the public and
see that his Police Department enforce'
beth the ordinances which affect thi:
particular situation.
"If these ticket spectators were elimi
mated and the producers and theatrica
managers got together and charged 6
little more for their tickets they coult
no doubt pay actors and actresses fol
their services while rehearsing. and thu
public would be spared the annoyance
