The experience of Baltimore
business man who has just returned
from an eleven months stay in
Warsaw, in regard TO the horrors of
Bolshevism as seen so near the bat
tie front, and the fight which Po-
land is making to save itself from
ruin, is extremely important.
Mr.. Edward H. Bouton, one of the
leading business men of the city
who for eleven months was engaged
in important work in Warsaw help
ing the Polish Government to solvt
its housing and sanitary problems
claims that the fall of Warsa"
would be far more disastrous to civil
lization than even the capture OF
Paris would have been if the Ger
mans had been able to loot that
city.
Between Bolshevism, with its un'
speakable crimes, and civilization
Mr.. Bouton holds that Poland
stands as the only safeguard. As a
man of wide experience, of exceed
ingly clear judgment, his views are
of the utmost Importance at the
present moment when Warsaw is
endangered and when there is a
possibility that Poland may fall be-
fore the armies of Russia. If we
had not known the World War. the
