The policy which the prime minister
has consistently pursued in Paris. amid
all tho difficulties and turmoil Of tina:

ple-to disarm Germany to feed Ger
many and to make peace with Germany.
A way Of atonement is open to Ger
many.
By combating Bolshevism. by being
the bulwark against It. Germany may
take the first step toward ultimate re-
union with the civilized world.
Very great pcrls still menace us in
tho world. Two migthJ branches Of :hA
human race, the Slavs and the TcutonS.
ar both plunged at the present time in
the deepest misery. The Great Power
which was our foe and the great Power
which was our friend, are both in the
nit of ruin and despair. 1t is extremely
undesirable that they should come to-
gether.
Germany Is struggling against break
ing down into Bolshevism. But II that

The Russian Bolshcvist revolution Is

the pcople Of Russia has for the time
being utterly smashed. Famine and ter
ror are the order Of the day. Only the
military structure is growing out Of Tn"
ruin. That IN ST y weak. hut Is
growing steadily stronger. and it Is as
suming an aggressive and predatory
form, which French Jacobinism assumed
after the fall of Robespicrrc and before
tho rise OF Napoleon.
Rolshcvist armies are marching on to-

II Germany succumbs either from in
