And Just as Wilhelm II threw over

There is one point in which Whites

A RTHUR RANSQME'S new
N book on Russia possesses
4 ~ special interest because of
the authors recent inter
view with Lenine, in which the Boil
shevik Premier gave assurances that
Russia's future energies would be de-
voted to peaceful reconstruction. Ran
some is British journalist who has
always been favorably disposed toward
the Bolsheviki; but his present book
does not give a very cheerful picture
OF the Soviet regime. He is less sweep
ing in his denunciations than those
disillusioned radicals, MIR. Bertrand
Russell and Mrs. Philip Snowden; but
he admits that Russia is now an eco
nomic ruin, governed despotcally by
small fraction of the population.
enrolled in the Communist party. Of
democracy, in the American sense of
the word, there is not a trace. The
original Soviet constitution has been
suspended, and elections are alwavs
manipulated in such way as to give
the Communists safe majority in all
the Legislative bodies.
Believes Soviet Regime Will Last
1t may be wondered what arguments
can be adduced in favor Of DEALING
with government which has ap-
parently given such striking proofs of
moral and material failure. Ransome
contends, first of all. that the Bolshe-
Wiki have shown their vitality hv do
leatlng their various internal op
ponents, Kolchak, Denikin, Yudenditch
and Wrangel, and by repulsine the at
tack which was launched bv the Poles
last spring He does not think it likely
that the Soviet government will be
oVerthrown, and, if it should be over
thrown he believes that the chaos and
misery in Russia would onlv be in
tcnsihed.
De also addresses an appeal to the
commercial self-interest of his own
countrymen. Russia, he says. can really
get along without England better than
England can get along without Russia
eThe Russian can somehow scratch q
meager living out of the soil, but Eng
lands prosperity is absolutely bound
up with her foreign trade. Mr.. Ran
some put his argument forcibly in the
form of paradox at the end of the
book:
