The reassembling of Congress will see
a vigorous effort to reopen American
trade relations with the Sow ct Govern
ment of Russia. Notice OF this pro-
gramme was given to-day by Senator
william e. Borah (Tdaho), in state
ment In which he characterized the
blockade of Russia as 'stupendous
folly" and failure to reopen trade rela-
lions with the Soviet as Commercial
sabotage"
In face OF that movement the policy
Of the Wilson Administration toward
Russia remains unchanged despite mill
tary successes of the Bolsheviki against
Cen Wrangel There Will be no rec
ogn ton Of the Soviet Government and
efforts on the part of members Of Con-
gress to force the Government into the
reopening OF trade relations with the
Lenine-Trotzky Government will be re-
sisted.
Senator Borah announced his position
with a strong condemnation Of the pol
icy OF isolating the Russian people as q
method OF causing them 70 alter their
opinions or their Government. He said :
There has been no more stupendous
folly exhibited In large affairs than the
trade relations with that country. Not
only has this been used most effectively
by the Bolshevists themselves to their
advantage but thas produced that con-
dillon of unrest, OF dissatisfaction, OF
economic sabotage throughout Europe

Paris. Nov. Is.
While more than forty nations have
representatives in Geneva seeking TO pre-
vent future wars. the French Govern
ment is admittedly alarmed over the
Bo,shevist success in tho Crimea. It is
feared here that the Reds will not wait
until next spring to organize another
offensive movement against Poland. even
though they agreed to peace terms al
Riga.
Dispatches received at the French
Foreign Office from Scbastopol to-day
indicate that the forces OF Gen. Wrangel
were weakened by mutinies. which are
now ascribed to German propaganda.
The General Staff here has discovered
that Berlin sent certain technical and
tactical advisers to Moscow to direct the
Perekop offensive.
Not only was the attack against the
Wrangel forces carried out under the
direction OF these Germans, but the
ground was prepared beforehand by
scores OF propagandists. who mixed with
the Wrangel troops and spread spirit
OF discomfort among them. picturing
Ten. Wrangel as an advocate OF IL
Czarfst restoration, with Grand Duke
Michael as the successor to Gear Mich
olas.
This. the French declare. Is absolutely
untrue. as Gen. Wrangel's position is
midway between the Right and the Left
Russian extremists. as was shown by
the concessions he made to the peasants
in the territories from which the Boil
sheviki were expelled during his first
northward sweep.
One thing is certain. That is the
French public will not stand for any
extensive anti-Bolshevist aid unless the
Allies decide to present a united front
gainst the Red menace. Support OF
Gen. Wrangel has cost the French some
millions of francs, which Socialist news

by rich ppeo,e. Centuries later, the
church took upon itself this duty.
When the colonists settled in Ameri-
ca, the church still had control of
all charities. Gradually the states
and local governments took over ca.'.
tain forms Of charity until now We
have what is known as Organ ze1
Charity Organizations in practically
every large city in the United States.
The state charities with which We
are most familiar are the institutions
of various sorts. First consider the
asylums; the people cared for in
these are usually those persons that
are afflicted in some manner; so We
have the asylum for the deaf, the
dumb, the blind, the insane AMI
feeble-minded and the cripple. In
this progressive age, fgurativaly
speaking, the deaf hear, the dumb
speak, the blind see, all as a result
of careful training received in the
asylums. Our hospitals of to-day,
with their modern equipment, care
fully trained nurses and spec .alist5
assure one Of the very best care;
over one-half of the patients treated
are charity patients. These hospitals
are sometimes aided by state or city
funds, but more often by donations
from a free-hearted pubic Through
misfortune and death, children anu
aged people often are left homeless.
To-day there are few C ties without
homes for orphans, homes for the
aged, and homes for the veterans of
war.
Besides institutions and state char
tiles, there are many other charita bic
organizations. The Travellers Ala
Society has proved most helpful, 1ot
only IN peace but in time of war
Its chief activity is directed toward
the safeguarding of travellers, es-
pecially young and inexperienced
girls and Oh ldren travelling alone
Also, they assist the aged and infirm.
That greatest organization with its
vast number of volunteer workers,
an organization which covers every
phase of the subject, is known uni
versally and loved everywhere, the
Red Cross, IS doing a marvellous
amount of constructive work. It's
war activities are too well known 70
me to dwell upon, but since the
trmistice it has turned its attention
20 the reconstruction of the men
whose lives were shattered mentaly.
