THE RUSSIAN SACRIFICE.

Tn considering present-day Russia il is only fair
to remember one big fact that usually forgotten
n the general chorus Of condemnation. u is this;
Russian losses in the war. according estimate
made Dy the Kolchak governments, amounted in
killed and wounded 35O0O.OOO men
Russia, course, is "a large. popuIous country
But 35.OOO.OOO casualties. 1t if the United
States had 20.OoO0OO men killed or wounded in
this war.
such inconcetably vast losses must explain
great deal if we could but interpret them fully IN
all their bearings. There are millions of desolate
homes and broken families millions of fatherIess
or paupered children. millions of men disabled
from wounds illness and unable TO make q
living. human relations changed. organizations
shattered. hopes destroyed. plans wrecked. nerves
edge. Add all this a general shifting of
population and a sudden upsetting of the old gov
ernmental regime What wonder that the whole ma
ton is in ferment of unrest; that any crazy idea
finds champions; that. people rush TO wild extremes:
that bolshevism any other ism i'm the hands of
a strong leader gains a following and makes
pOrary Roadway?
Perhaps nation that has 35.OO0.OO0 war losses
on half that many-deserves 20 have its fling. and
deserves tolerance forgiveness for its excesscs.
These excuses viii pass as czarism has passed.
