trade, 1t is being rapidly modified, due
TO the proved .impracticabilty Of Is
communistic ideals.
Statesmen in all parts Of the world
are becoming convinced OF what capi-
talists long have known that Russias
anomalous economy will no; stand
the acid test of prscticability; and
the quickest way TO DEBATE 1t 10 By
exposure 10 contact with he outside

Lenine and his followers are COM
ing to their senses no less than are
the nations which have until now held
Bolshevism In adherence. He dis
covered-and acted on his discovery
hat there is no substitute for work;
that Russia must have a regular
monetary system, banks aud wages;
that even despised foreign capital
must again be invited to come IN and
develop the country.
What has deceived the outside
world is that Lenine in bringing
about modification OF Bolshe. ISM
and reducing 1t to basis approaching
COMMON sense has retained most or
the Bolsheyist names OF things, viii q
abandoning the Boishevist principle.
IN he peace, terms which, he pro-
posed he wanted to reopen trade"
but trade with Russia is impossible
until transportation there has been
reestablished,} and production also
Ii WAS -ated that Lenine now admits
that outside capital must help. The
admission Of outside capital necessi-
tates the restoration. OF prlvat@l. h y
or y, thus leaving the Dictatorship
of the proletariat" as nothing more
than popular voice in puo.lc ar
fairs.
Lenine fu. Their carried out this decep
ton in names into the Reorganization
OF internal indus res At first the fac
tory overseers were elected by the
workmen, but this became impractic-
alb e because every faction developed
a political hornets nest Of fayori ism.
Lenine now has established d eysleM
Of dictators who oversee. the work.
They are nothing more than ordinary
superintendent. They are appointed
by the s ate, but II private capital
again enters Russia it will be an eaey
step to transfer the appointive power
from the State to the real private
owners and thus restore private man
agement.
On all railroads apd in factories
Lenine has re-established the bonus\
system to reward efficient workmen.
This wiped out the idealistic equality
scheme, in which every nian was 10
share alike in profits. He did moi,
however, employ he term 'bonusr
but called 1t "boanty system. 1he
man who saved his "bounties" might
become capitalist however, cap
italist created by Lenines own act.
These and many other factors In
the Russian situation are being watch
ed by British capital, which is willing
and anxious to re-enter Russia when
the proper time comes.
There is confident feeling in imam
cial quarters here that If nothing I'M
fortunate happens In the next few
weeks the present policy of putting
Russia on trial and Of suspending hos
tilities against her will lead to peace
and the reopening Of trading.

Rome. Feb 2S.-Enormous purchas-
es of coal and foodstuffs which Italy

preciated currency constitute the
severest check to this coun RVS re-
turn to prosperity, says Alfred B.
Dennis, the American Commercial At
tache, in an interview in the Popolo
Romano.
Mr.. Dennis points out thai the price
Of coal in Ita.y is ten times the price
in the United States and that this
Icripples all alys coal consuming in
dustries and upsets the balance OF
production between Italy and her in
dustrial competitors. The American
attache says, however, that in his
opinion this condi ion is merely tenn
porary and will be improved with the
lowering OF freight rates and the open
ng of new sources of supply.

Paris, Nov. 20.
The fight in the French Parliament
for restoration Of diplomatic relations
with the Vatican entered new phase
to-day when a group of Socialist Depu-
ties formulated q proposal that instead
Of an Ambassador being sent to Rome
the Pope be asked to receive an Envoy
Extraordinary, ranking as Ambassador
to deal with all questions affecting the
church's interests In France.
In diplomatic circles in Paris this as
considered the shrewdest tactical move
In the history of Frances relations with
the Vatican, as it woG;d give France an
insight into the alleged International in
trigues which opponents of the Vatican
insist are always carried on there, es-
pecially by German Catholics, and at
the same time would prevent a Papal
Nunclo taking up headquarters in Paris
and conducting a campaign for the abro-
CATION of the laws which separated the
church and the state
Bitter determinations have been tossed
hack and forth between the Right Wing
and the Left Wing extremists since the
Vatican debate opened, and il IS eN-
pected that the new proposal by the
Socialist Deputies will gain as adherents
many of the milder Republicans before
the return of Premier Leygues from
London for the closing of the session.
