No Help for Hungary

Certainly no troops would come
from Italy, from England or from
France. Neither the British nor
the Italian government would dare
30 send troops. France has all she
can attend to on the Rhine and in
Syria. There are many elements
IN England which would welcome the
downfall Of the present reactionary
government in Hungary, aside from
Che Labor group, which synpathizes
with all the enemies Of its enemy.

cal reaction.
Bohemia would resist; It has as
yet been little infected with Boil
sheTsm, but the Czecho-Slovak state
could not muster an army equal to
that which Poland put in the field
only to suffer defeat It might, too,
have to face Polish hostility, for the

Bohemia could be saved; Hungary
could be saved only if Germany
chose to use her military strength,
depending upon hcr recent enemies
for munitions and supplies, against
the Bolshevist invaders. But would
Germany do it? At the very least
such policy would at once arouse
all of the Independent Socialists
and not few Of the Majority. 1t

wider knowledge Of European az
fairs, and, in spite Of laundering ac-
cents and inadequate grammar, are
more glib in putting their thoughts
into words. If all the worlds prob
lens were to be settled by debate,
with foreigners on one side of the
issues and Americans on the other,
the foreigners would undoubtedly
win.
The Rev. Percy Stickney Grant,
rector Of the Church Of the Assem-
sion, has made this discovery as a
result of experience with his church's
regular Sunday night forums. In
endeavoring to meet criticism from
some quarters that the forums were
dominated by foreign agitators, DR..
Grant learned, on checking up the
nationalities Of persons who were
quickest to get on their feet and
clamor for recognition whenever dis
cusslon was thrown open for general
debate, that native-born Americans,
however fluent they may be in pri-
vate conversation, become suddenly
timid and tongue-tied when it comes
to facing battery Of listeners.
On the other hand, DR.. Grant
learned that timidity is not part of
the average foreigners makeup.
Schooled in agitation in his own
country, possibly because OF politi-
cal oppression--for it has been
found that the moro oppressive a
government the more loquacious are
its people--the foreigner, as soon as
he acquires smattering of English
on arriving in New York, insists
upon making himself heard, especi-
ally if he is given such a hospitable
opportunity as the Church of the AS
ecnsion's forums provide. Problems
affecting the United States he is not
at all too bashful TO discuss, but on

Rhine to guard, and her wounds Of
the last war are far from healed.
America VIII Not Act

AS for the United States, it will
do nothing. No one will question
the assertion that the arrival of the
Bolshevists in Warsaw, in Budapest,
in Madrid or Paris, for that matter,
would not avail to persuade the
American public to send back the
two millions Of troops which it had
in France In November, 1918. There
is not the political aspect to the
question here that exists in Europe,
but there Is instead a resolute de-
termination to keep out Of European
messes henceforth. Such deterni-
nation will not endure forever, but
it is hardly likely to weaken much
in the next two or three years, which
can hardly fail to be decisive.
The single unvarnished fact in
the situation to-day is that Russia
the Bolsheyists-has just won

blackboard becoming surfeited with
that brand ~ words, DR.. Lynch puts
down his pointer, blows the chalk off
his fingers and proceeds to the
sterner aspects of the evenings
work.
The subject for discussion hap
pens to be "The Plight Of Europe"
which DR.. David Starr Jordan had
talked about the previous Sunday
evening. The plight Of Europe
being recognized as a rather large
subject, the pupils, who include in
their midst some male members
with tortoise-rimmed goggles, be-
gin to move on their little wooden
chairs with anticipations obviously
pleasant.
The Remedies Offered
Now, the question arises, What is
the plight of Europe? A little
squat man with a swarthy COM
plexion, evidently acquired in a CHI
mate where the sun is even more in
tense than it is in New York. gets
up and says he knows. He speaks
with an accent no one ever heard of
before, but he apologies for his
English by explaining that he is a
native of Greece. He wants to ex-
plain that the plight of Europe is
all due to the unspeakable Turk.
Drive the Turk out OF Europe, he
says, and all will go we'll. Does
anybody believe that the United
States has any greater friend in
Europe than she has in Greece? No;
nobody believes it. Well, then, why
shouldn't the United States insist
that the Turk shall be driven out
Of Europe and kept out?
Up jumps another olive-com-
plexloned speaker with an exotic ac-
cent. He desires to call to the at
tention of the gentleman from
Greece that the Turk is already
practically driven out of Europe.
He challenges the assertion that
Greece is Americas best friend and
desires to say that if there is any
driving to be done 1t ought to be
concentrated around Plume way.

A New Bolshevist Panic
Unless all signs fail, we are eo;n,
to have new Bolshevist panic h.
fore many weeks, a far better war
ranted panic than any that havs
gone before. The trouble is that .hs
Western publics have not FOLLOWED
Eastern events and have acceut.A
views prepared to please withous
regard to the actual facts. Wh;|a
the warweary publics have refused
interest or any actual support, Their
statesmen have secretly tried h
avert an unmistakable menace b.
makeshifts. They have known Tia
truth about Russia, but they have
not dared to tell the public tia
truth, because they realize that Tia
public would blame them.
Now, the truth can hardly Be-
avoided much longer. Russia has
won a war with the West, which en-.
ahles her to dictate terms with which
the West viii have to comply Or
fight. If it complies, then We mar
have truce while Russia gets ready
for the next phase; we may have
revolution in Russia which will or.
pei the Bolshevists, but revolutions
against victorious leaders ars rea.
lively rare; but we shall certainly
have new war presently if the
BOlshevists survive, for Bolshevism
as l have said so often, is state Of
war, its principles a declaration Of
war against existing systems Of
government in all Western nations.
But If the West does not comply
it must fight. There is no other
alternative, and it may be that there
will be no choice any way. For Rus
STA does not desire to make peace, and
Lenine and Trotzky have set their
feet in pathways which lead with
less serious obstacles than those
they have trod to victories and con-
quests which might rival those Of
France in the early days of the
French Revolution, after it had over
flowed the French borders.
And if Russia chooses to make
war further, now or in the next few
years, her decision will instantly
impefil all the results of the World
War; it Will, in turn, give Germany
position Of almost unparalleled
advantage; it may make her the ar
bitter Of the whole European situa-
ton. We have, indeed, for the time
being at least, abolished the Ger
man peril by our victories of 1918
But we are not yet arrived at the
second anniversary of those vic
tories and a far more serious peril
is in sight.

know that they were actually en-
gagged in a struggle, have come to
nothing and to something worse.
The stones thrown into the hornets
nest have not destroyed the nest,
but they have stimulated the hornets
to intense activity.
And now Russia becomes the
transcendant fact in the world sit
uation. She has great and victori-
Gus armies, whose modern equip
ments, whose tanks, machine guns,
airplanes, were contributed by the
Western nations to the anti-Bolshe-
visit expeditions in Russia and to the
Poles. She has good generals. If
Brusiloff really commands her
troops she has a general who, alone
Of the participants Of the World
War, might challenge Foch in &C
tual achievement. What is she 60
ing to do with them?
Where Germany Stands
All Of which raises the German
problem in new form. The ele~
ments which actually control Ger
many at the moment are hostile to
Bolshevism. They would prefer to
make many concessions to their old
enemies rather than go through that
form of receivership which would
be Bolshevist occupation. But no
concessions are in reality necessary.
The game is ripening to the point
where they will be able to take
totally new tone with the West, with
Britain and France. In fact, Luden-
dorff already has begun to press
the question. He says blunt1y, as
is his fashion, that the world must
have German aid or succumb to Boil
shevist attack.
Obviously such a statement is
propaganda. Manifestly the men in
control of Germany are just now
most concerned in using any possible
weapon to reduce Western demands.
To persuade the West to forego it's
bill, to let Germany work off her in
deotedness by delivering the West
from the Bolshevist peril, would be
at one time to escape payment in the
west and open broad field for ex-
ploitation in the east. 1t would be
to escape the consequences of defeat
and prepare the way for a victory
even more decisive than the recent
defeat.
But granted that the German in
terest is to magnify Bolshevist
perils, is it not true, none the less.
that the perils exist and that Ger
many remains the single agent left
to the Western nations, which, while
not exactly too proud to fight"
know that they are not going to
fight? Is it not the fact, to put it
little differently, that Germany has
now, or soon will have, the chance
to choose between throwing her lot
IN with the Bolshevists and embark
ing in a new world war, which GER
tainly will offer at least chance

By Frank II. Simonds

n I is certainly no exaggeration
n to say that as consequence of
II the Russian triumph in Poland
the greatest single problem
now posed for the world and, above
all, for the nations which defeated
Germany, but which have still to COL
lect the bill for damages. is whether
Germany and Russia will make a
common cause. If they do, then
there is no further question of the
German indemnities, and there is
an Immediate peril Of new war
perhaps as disastrous as that which
has recently ended or entered into a
new phase, as enc chooses to view it.
Moreover, the fact that Russia,
Bolshevism and the whole Russian
revolution have entered into domes-
tic politics in Great Britain, in Italy
and in Germany is too little per-
ceived in America, where both polit-
cal parties and the overwhelming
mass Of the American public have
neither sympathy nor interest in
Russian affairs and are agreed In
the determination to keep Russian
methods and principles out Of the
United States. OF all the Euro
pean nations only France is as hap
PLY free from Bolshevistic leanings
in all influential quarters as we are.
Bolsl,evism's Future
The truth is that Bolshcvism, the
Russian revolution like the French
has made converts far beyond its
own frontiers. If the Bolshcvists
can maintain their control at home
they have before them as attractive
an opportunity to overflow into Gem
tral Europe as did the French
century and a quarter ago Poland
has fallen, Hungary manifest]y
possesses q strong Bolshevist minor
ity, the situation in Austria is at
the least promising, while it is
notorious fact that in Italy a So
cialist group. which numbers almost
oAe-haf Of the present parliament,
makes no Disguise of its sympathy
fer Russian rulers and their prin
ciples.
In England the question of Boil
shcvism has become a matter Of
local politics. Labor is rising rapid
ly to undreamed-of influence in the
political world. 1t sees the leaders
e the political groups which are
its traditional enemies striving by
every known method to contribute
to the defeat Of the Russian revo-
luton. Since the elements are hos
tile to Bolsheyism, labor at once as
sunes an attitude the reverse
Of friondliness. 1t goes to the length
Of embargoing munition cargoes and
var supplies destined for Poland,
and without these Poland falls.
Conceive that the Russian revo-
luton, having disposed Of Poland,
does not consent to lay down it's
arms, but seeks first Of all to over
throw the anti-Boishevist faction,
which has gained control Of Hun
gary after bitter fighting and driven
Bella Kun and his followers out Of
the country. In this situation who
will defend Hungary? And with
out defense from without Hungary
cannot stand, having infinitely less
resources than Poland had. The
mere signal to advance given to the
Red troops would suffice to bring
the Hungarian edifice down in q
heap.

tremendous campaign carried on
against Poland nominally, but ac-
tually against the Western powers.
And this is only the latest Of many
such campaigns. Kolchak, Yude-
mitch and Denikine we're in reality
only the agents Of Britain, France
and, in more or less remote fash
ion, of the United States. Victori-
Gus over internal rebels, promoted
and supplied by external enemies Of
the present Russian regime, victori-
Gus over an external foe whose at
tack was Enthusiastically aided if not
procured by the same forces which
supported the internal rebels, Rus
STA now comes west as a conqueror.
The ultimatums, the firm declara-
lions, the warnings as to what Rus
STA must agree to which come from
London and Paris are mere chatter
ings; they should deceive no one, and
they will not deceive Trotzky or
I'enine. The truth is too obvious
that it is as defeated nations that
France and Britain must talk with
Russia, although technically neither
Britain nor France has made war
with Russia directly, but contented
themselves, at least in recent
months, by using agents, by employ
ing first the Russian rebels and
then unfortunate Poland, whom they
betrayed as Enthusiastically as they
melted.
In some sort Of fashion the West
has been at war with Russia for
nearly two years. At the end Of
this time Russia is victorious in
every field and her troops are adj
vancing in Poland, in Persia and TO-
ward Asia Minor. Moreover, the do
nestle situation of the Western ma
tons is now such that the existing
governmen+s-dara>not either openly
or even covertly continue the war.
The Real Purpose
The Polish adventure has been
characterized as nationalistic
gamble Of one class of the Polish
population. But this is merely
throwing dust in the eyes of the
world audience. Poland, most Po-
lsh patriots, longed to regain the
lost provinces of Poland, the PROV
inces torn from her by the Russians
in the several partitions. They de-
sired fencible frontier on the Rus
sian side. But this Polish patriotic
emotion was only the foundation
upon which the West built it's cam
paign against the Bolshevists.
Lloyd Georges attitude in the
matter of the Polish attack upon
Russia was that Of Judge Hoar, once
Attorney General of the United
States, when asked if he was going
to attend the funeral Of his. bitter
est political foe. "No," said the
judge, "but I approve Of It," 1t
is notorious fact that Lloyd George
and those associated with him do
not approve. Of Poland and would
doubtless have been glad of a chance
to white down Polish gains had Po-
land won her war, but even less do
they approve Of the Reds.
But all this is in the past. The
furtive, concealed, almost sneaking
efforts of Western governments to
make war, without admitting it, to
destroy Bolshevism without permit

as If it were form of phiosophic
excursion; the principles are to-
Grated IN circles where Trotzky,
when he was in New York. only
little while ago, would not have been
permitted to lineer longer than the
time necessary TO call the police or
the house detective. What Bolshe-
Vism does is overlooked, because II
is so much more interesting to at
tack its opponents who are, to say
the least, reasonably vulnerable.
But at no distant time now, Bol-
shevism is likely to become q real
factor, not something mysterious
and distant, provocative of police
raids and Attorney General activi-
ties. We are just three years and
a few months from the hour when
Germany served a sentence little
short of a capital sentence upon
the Bolshevists at Brest-Litovsk

continued to live and to flourish; has
Won half a dozen domestic wars and
