The workers of Russia felt bitter
against the plotters and invaders"

people of other nations were not re-
sponsible for these policies, the work
ers appealed to the people in the var

an end to attacks of this nature"
Chairman Moses asked the purpose
of the propaganda, and former Sena-

Martens, took a hand
THE whole purpose of Russian pro-
paganda," he said, has been to get
the right to sustain the kind of gov
ernment they wanted at home, leav-
ing America free to take care of her
own affairs. This was at time
when American boys were being draft
ed to fight Russia on their own soil"
