mJSSIA'S SPIRIT

Not the Bolsheviki but Russia's
national spirit has won in European
Russia and western Siberia. Soviet
rule is crying its triumph. But
Lenine and Trotsky have not proven
their theories of government are
correct because they have defeated
foreign invaders. Lenine and Trotsky
deny national spirit. They say IT
destroys the interests of the working
classes. But it is to nationalism they
owe their present success.
The rule of revolutions is always
the same. The test comes after
peace has been declared, not in the
midst of hostilities. Foreign foes
solidify a revolutionary movement
more than all the theories Of revolu-
tionary leaders.
Kolchak, Denekine and Yudenich,
though Russians themselves, accept
ed foreign subsidies. In the eyes OF
the Russian people that made them
agents OF other nations, seeking to
dictate Russia's course of action. So
there was no difficulty raising Boil
sheviki armies to keep alien infiu-
ences out of holy Russia.
The Soviet government at Moscow
is now the dominant power in Rus
STA. There Is no doubt of that. Blu,
that doesn't mean B~olshevism will bt
given a permanent hold on Russia.

IT wish my career were beginning

A sigh Of regret accompanied
these words, by James b. Forgan,
the great national banker Of Chicago.
1 had asked Mr.. Forgan whether
the opportunities for young men
were as great today in the banking
field as when he won his spurs
There are certainly at present"
he declared. greater opportunities
than ever before and more of them
for young men entering the banking
business. Banking In this country is
now in an evolutionary stage. The de-
plorable European war has created
the opportunities, and the federal
reserve system-not yet fully under
stood or, appreciated-affords US the
means Of taking advantage of them"
Mr.. Forgan early realized the
value Of inspiring and stirring to
enthusiasm those working for him.
and. to this end, he established in
1908 a generous pension fund for
employees. He is as solicitous for the
welfare and advancement of the
youngest offlce-boy who comes under
