Wade H. Ellis. counsel for the sub
committee of the Senate foreign re-
lations committee investigating boil
shevic propaganda in this country,
last night. addressing the members
of Washington and Lee University
Alumni Association at the University
Club. declared that the present gov
erning power Of Russia is based upon
pillage. plunder. ~assa ssination ana
contempt of justice and the rights OF
the human race He said it was
menace to civil and religious liberties
the like Of which the world never saw
before. and a condition that threatens
the civilization and established gov
ernments of the universe.
Holding in his hand an authe nti-
Gated copy of the constitution of that
country under Lenin and Trotsky. Mr..
Ellis said that the first article of that
paper upon which the destinies of the
realm are based, in which all private
property is declared confiscated for
the use OF the government. is the
most radical declaration of prin-
ciple abrogating the rights of the
people over attempted by fanatical
power. and one that should meet with
the united opposition of the civilized
governments of the world.
Mr.. Ellis told his audience that the
life and existence of the principles
upon which the free Institutions and
government of the United States are
based are seriously threatened by boil
shevism. SkttChing the propaganda
that is being sent broadcast over the
world by Lenin. Trotsky and his kind.
Mr.. Ellis said that that propaganda
was the best organized. the most in
telliSently and Craftily managed and
more generously financed through the
unlimited funds derived by the con-
fiscation Of private property of Rus
sia than anything of its kind known
to history. and that it was reaching
every corner of the universe through
the personal direction of the best in
telligence that the hate of the Ger
mans could supply.
Mr.. Ellis pointed out that the sal
walton of the stability of the Ameri-
can government was in the rights '.f
free speech. a free press. the right of
assembly. guaranteed the people by
the Constitution. and said that re-
preston or suppression of those rights
would result in the worst type of rad
ical revolution. Discussing the in
dustrial unrest of this country. he
said that the right of free speech and
of collective bargaining and the
right of all people freely to express
their minds on all subjects. provided
the determination of all questions of
government were left to the rule of
the majority. in his opinion. was the
solution of the reconstruction ques-
tions confronting this country and
the means of stamping out the Rus
sian soviet doctrine.
The University Club will ask Mr..
Ellis to repeat his address before the
members of that organization and
their friends at an early date.

How teeth are ruined

The film absorbs stains and becomes
discolored. Thus the teeth grow cloudy.
Film is the basis Of tartar. It holds
food substance which ferments and forms
acid. It holds the acid in contact with
the teeth to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in II. They,
with tartar, are the chief cause Of pyor-
rhea. So few escape these troubles If
they leave film on the teeth.

You must fight film

To have whittier, safer teeth you must
fight flm-the cause Of most tooth
troubles.
Film is that viscous coat which you feel
with your tongue. It is ever-present,
forming. It clings to teeth, gets be-
tween the teeth and remains.
The ordinary tooth paste does not dis
solve it. A soapy tooth paste makes it
more clinging. So the tooth brush has
left much Of it intact, until dentist could
remove it.
That is why so many brushed teeth dis

pyorrhea starts. Despite the tooth brush,
these tooth troubles have been constantly
increasing. Every dentist nowadays
knows that this film is responsible.

SEATTLE, Sept.

Davis, director of the United States reclamation service. He told those present that the increasing demand for greater food production throughout the world, caused as a result of the late war, coupled with the practical exhaustion of the available reserve land of America, made it imperative to take immediate steps by appropri- ate legislation to reclaim the large areas of waste land in the western states.
 The irrigation conference was also addressed by Frank H. Jeffrey, rep resenting Franklin D'Oner head of the American Legion, who, speaking on behalf of the organization definitely pledged the legion as being behind the reclamation work.
