BoIsHEVIsT RECOGNITION

For some time, the Lloyd George gov
ernment has favored the resumption OF
trade relations with Bolsherist Russia.
Tho defeat Of General Wrangel by the
Bolshevists has been followed closely
by an announcement In the British par
lament by Premier Lloyd George to the
effect that the cabinet had decided to
enter into negotiations for such resump-
ton.
This step would not mean recognition
OF the Soviet government but would
tend to lead toward that result As
justification. Mr.. Lloyd George advances
tho assertion that Great Britain wishes
TO check Bolshevist propa sanda in Asia
Minor, Persia and India. Il Is known,
however. that pressure has been exereed
on the premier by British banking and
commercial interests and by the radical
wing OF the labor party.
The United States will not follow the
British lead in this action, nor will
France. This nation has declared Its
sincere friendship for tho Russian peo-
ple but has stated that 1t Is not posi-
bio for this government to recognize the
present. ruIefS VI AHuSS+A oAlu W "N>e''p@
TO maintain friendly relations with
them.
In other words, the United States ex-
poets the Bolshevist government to fall
and to be replaced by something a great
deal better. Very properly. It does not
care to prolops the existence OF the
present regime by recognition. Brutal
and despotic rule seldom lasts long and

at the offices OF ]. Z. Morgan & Co. The
men endorsing this statement are:
Thomas W. Lamont. Thomas Cochran
and Dwight l. Morrow. all OF J. p. Nor

Of the Chase National Bank and presl-
dent Of the New York Clearing House

OF the Guaranty Trust Company and
George F. Baker, Jr, vice president OF
the First National bank.
Analysing the position Of the bankers,
NJ. Sabin, OF tho Guaranty Trust Com
pauy, said In part:
This country will harvest this year
one OF tho largest crops in its history.
Its TRANSPORTATION congestion mas oeen
relieved. and it's railroad system IS Tor
the first time in a decade on SOUND
financial and operating basis. Vie have
passed through \ nationwide election and
assured four years Of sane admtnlstra-
ton OF public affairs. Our banking sys-
tenn has withStood the greatest credit
strain in its history, and Is on souno
and workable basis. This accumulated
surplus OF five years OF splendid pros
perity is stored in many ways FOR our
continued use. The markets OF the world
demand our products. and great mer-
camille marine Is prepared to transport
them. This country has not been over
built or overextended in any OF its under
lying activities, and faces no programme
of readjustment along those lines such AS
usually prccipitates panic conditions. We
are in the soundest financial. Industrial
and political condition Of any important
nation in the world.
Coming from men whose opinions and
actions determine 10 some extent the
financial condition OF the country, this
statement carries considerable weight.
There are, OF course, numerous problems
OF readjustment yet TO be solved and
tho process will be painful 10 some. as
pulling q tooth Is painful. but the pa
tient will feel much batter afterward
and suffer no permanent i'll effects.

The first step has been taken in 4
definite program OF Cn-oprratioa between
industry and education.
America Is facing to-day an appalling
shortage OF men. Industry Is mad" up
Of three elrmcnts--matcrials. money,
and men. Materials and money arc in-
crt without men.
Much OF the existing industrial I'M
rest is caused by this shortage or
trained management men. Any definite
step toward relieving the conditions. to-
ward solving the industrial problems
that besCt the world. must be taken by
the management man.
From the viewpoint of industry the
writing OF specifications must be done
with recognition Of the fact that three
methods exist of meeting q shortage of
production. Either so 10 organize eN-
listing capacity as to turn out more and
better goods than are now produced. or
TO develop new capacity. or 10 combine
extended use of existing capacity with
development OF new capacity.
Here, where maximum production in
minimum time Is needed. tho third
method is the obvious on to take.
From the standpoint OF the college.
which is tho producer. the writing Of
specifications must be done with recog-
milton Of the same three alternatives.
The college must organize its exist
ing capacity for greater or better pro-
durt!on, create new capacities. or do
both. And to do these things success

The Swiftcst way to obtain such spec
