In Europe today it is recognized
that unless the powers at once crys-
tallize their policy in regard to the
boIsheviki and assist the elements'
antagonistic to Lenin and Trotsky in
Moscow the seditious gospels preach
ed by them will have gained sych
great footing among the incrednhous
of Asia as to make possible the oyler-

That Premier Lloyd George of Great

first and most affected by success of
the bolshevSst plans, should summon
council of war the eve of the
meeting of the league of nat tions in
Paris is but logical That some ef-

the terrible menace that is coming
nearer is but a logical conclusion. But
that both Great Britain and France
have temporized with this hideous
thing which has been rearing its
head in the east, and therefore are
in a measure to blame for the situa-
ton, is admitted by all students of
bolshevism and its growth, and those
who have been urgently appealing to the

In some circles of Europe it isl
openly declared that had the allies

not be a living thing. The powers of
Europe might now be able to give all
their time, attention and means tothe'i
adjustment of the hard problems con-
fronting them in setting their houses
in order and remedying the evil eff

ally agreed. any effort to tear up,
bolshevism by its roots and stamp it
out at its fountain head will entail
