selves to the propagation of Bolshevism

plotting the enormous mistake the lead

Immediately after the conclusion of the
armistice that the war was finished.
Heads of the German General Staff
have been delighted to notice that the
Bosheviki and Socialists of Entente
countries have been carrying on propa-
ganda, which is daily growing more in
tense, in favor of the quickest and most
complete rehabilitation of the Allied
armies, without the slightest regard for
the fact that if this is successful it will
have the result Of depriving the Allies
of the means of enforcing reparation for
the damage the enemy inflicted upon the
Allies during the war. Exaggerated
hopes, undoubtedly, have been inspired
among the Allied troops by statements
made that everything now is over, and
leaders of the Entente already had de-
cided to withdraw their armies.
Lloyd George explained publicly few
days ago that, even if hostilties had
stopped, the war was not yet ended No
body yet knows what the Germans will
do; whether they will agree to the con-
ditions of peace or consent to make the
reparation we intend to demand of them

All important observers are agreed in
proclalming that the Allies, in attempt

organized by the Boches To obtain this
result there is much simpler method
than the use of great and imposing
mlhtary expedition to Russia, which
would evidently be difficult to carry out
owing to the enormous extent of the
territory involved and the lack of proper
means of communication. This rela-
lively simple means consists in cutting

ner as to prevent the Boche General
Staff continuing to direct operations in
Russia. Thereby will be prevented the
lrremediable disaster which the crash
of Poland would involve.
This is, briefly, the solution which I
suggested in a review last October-a
solution the imperative necessity of
which recent events have shown and
which will have the great advantage of
permitting the fight against Boshevism
to be undertaken with comparatively
small forces.

ganda, with the aim of obtaining the
same results. The only difference is that
this new propaganda is canoufaged by
arguments borrowed from Boshevil
idealogy.
German soldiers still scattered through
the Ukraine, for instance, are called on
to fight against Allied intervention "be-
cause Of what Little Russia will have

The constitution of the Bolshevik

This Bolshevik army is composed of

Why Not an
Army i'm Poland?

The opinion Of some people is that
Poland is already Bolshevist and that
it is too late to intervene This is mis-
take. Some Polish groups undoubtedly
have evinced tendency for Bolshevism,
but this could not very we'll be otherwise,
since the whole of Poland, ever since the
beginning of the war, has been in the
hands of German propagandists, who
have done just what they liked there.
In these circumstances it is not surpris-
ing to find traces of Bolshevism in
Poland, but | am sufficiently acquainted
with Poland to be convinced that this
Bolshevism will quickly disappear the
moment effective help is given the Poles
by Allied agreement
The material carrying out of help to
be given to Poland by the Allies is COM
paratively easy of accomplishment.
1t would be sufficient, in fact, to send

brains behind the Bolshevik movement.
recognize in this movement the method
and intelligence Of the German General
Staff and Ludendorff, who is merely con-
'tlnulng his own special work hoping
IN Bolshevism to benefit pan-G ermanism.
The German plans hidden behind the
Bolshevk movement already are in
course of execution. These consist es-
sentlally of crushing the Poles before
the latter, with the aid of the Allies, can
organize and rally an efficient army.
lhls is the reason why the Bolshevik
army coming from the East has begun
the invasion Of Poland, while linden
burg, until Foch recently ordered him
to refrain, was simultaneously preparing
to march his forces from the West. Once
the Poles were crushed the Germano-
Bolsheviki would promptly turn against
the Czecho-Slovaks, in order TO take
them by surprise before their army was
organized and infict upon them a fate
similar to that of the Poles
1t is essential that this fact be under
stood in all Allied countries: this crush
ing of the Poles and the Czecho- Slovaks
is all that is necessary to nullify the
victory of the Allies and insure the final
triumph Of Germany. This would be SO
because without a really independent Pc
land and Bohemia it would be impossi-
bic for the Allies to place Europe upon
the foundation of the principle of ma
tionalities. Consequently, this impossi-
bility would be the immediate rcconsti-
tuition of Pan-Germanism
Once Germany again became master
of Central Europe, the Western Allies
would lack the means to compel the Ger
mans to repair the damage they caused
in France, Belgium and other countries.
These losses are so gigantic that it

as satisfactory as it seems from the dis

blunders recently committed by the
Allies. The first WAS the premature con-
cession of the armistice to the Germans.
The second is the widespread but mae

peoples that the armistice is the same
thing as peace These mistakes may

that public opinion be convinced of their

Not Peace

There is always the possibility of their
adopting this policy, owing to the second
great difficulty in which the Allies find
themselves, owing to the unfounded be-
lief among the Allied peoples that with
the armistice the whole conflict came to
an end. Upon the conclusion OF the ar

Bolshevsm is new for this reason: it
is an especially dangerous form of new
pan-German manUuvre, the final aim of
which is to permit the Boche to take
advantage of the mistakes and other
accidental circumstances of the Allies
and thereby win back the game which
Germany has just lost The principal
proof of this is to be found in the fol-
lowing facts:
The Bolshevik leaders, Lcnine and
Trotzky, who are German agents, since
it is we'll known that they received from
Germany all the money necessary to their
undertaking, are now very actively at
work to place at the disposal of Germany
armies recruited in Russia, while the
paper money printed in Russia has been
placed exclusively at the service Of Boz

ton must be made between Individual

The individual Bolshevist is that person

bourgeoisie or middle classes and thus
regenerating society, steals such of his
neighbours property as he finds to his
taste 1t is difficult to estimate exactly

reason an extremely large number of

but common criminals
