life and its ennobling influence or the
people. We have no dukes, no marshals,
no viscounts, no peers, no generals nor

1.-Soviet Russia will have its first peace
Christmas this year since the creation Of
the soviet form of government. This was
the message sent to the outside Worll
today by Leon Trotski, peoples com
missar of war. Trotski has just re-
turned from South Russia, where he d.
rected military operations on the Crimean
front He says that Russia is not max
ing any preparations for future fight
ing. All the energies Of the soviet, he
said. are now being turned toward the
economic upbuiIding of the country
(Note.-AceordinR to press dispatches
from ConstantinOple, soviet Russia has
embarked on 4 new war in Persia, using
troops that crushed General Wrangels
anti Bolshevist army. COnstantinOple re-
ported that the Russian Reds had invaded
northwestern Persia and were advancing
on Tabriz, overcoming all OppOsition.)
ENEMY ROUTED
ON ALL SIDES.
Seated in his office in the building of
the Supreme Revolution War Council,
Trotski dictated the following state
ment:
"As to the situation on the fronts I
NAV say that at this moment we have no
active fronts. IN the South we have
eliminated Wrangel In the West and
Southwest we have eliminated Petlura
and Balachovitch. In the Far East we
have routed the legions of Semanof.
This is the first occasion in the last three
years that the military situation in
Russia has given way to tranquility.
There is no fighting anywhere at present.
'sThe military reports from the fronts
deal only with the reorganization. with
the newly liberated districts and with
the enumeration OF booty captured by
our armies"
Glow long do you expect this period
to 1ast?" Trotski was asked He re
piled:
an this regard you ought to look for
enlightenment beyond boundaries Of
soviet Russia: in those official head
quarters where all Plots and attacks and
campaigns against soviet Russia are be
ing manufactured.
