eFr0m the washlngt0n P0stl.

The term '.Bolshevism' may b.
new TO photographers bu the thing
for which It stands are old--old a.
political and economic fallacies, and
trace back to Ignorance and lack OF
experience. While its utterance
wildly calls up visions of tho horror
that in recent years has ragged in
Muscovy. It also carries the student
back to the failures OF schemes and
fancies that It epitomizes as written
in the histories Of other lands and
other ages.
| Bolshevism Is simply a species OF
Communism and communism Is a
word that drips with tragedy and
reeks with the foulness of its course.
But 1t carries many DISCUSSES, some
of them seductive and beguinng and
some Of them mockingly Elusive.
There lies its greatest menace for the
thoughtless and unsuspecting and for
those Off guard. 1t is insldious and
steals into the minds of men to drive
them mad with yearning after, the
impossible TO which It points.
The most dangerous Bolshevism
that threatens the nations today is
the unconscious variety-the Bolshe-
vism that asserts itself in pursuit OF
fantastic and subverslve ideas with
out realization on the part of its VIC
Tins as to where they are heading. |
The emissaries Of Bolshevism are
aware Of the gullibility OF the I'M
and OF the rash in swallow
ing Bolshevism more readily when
called by some other name and so
direct their efforts to undermine the
solidity of economic and political
reason by using its teachings under
some other title as bait
Bolshevism means subversion OF
as Il Is established in
democratic countries and there are
few who would lend It ear II It were
placed before them in It's real ugli-
ness. But dressed up ss commun-
sm for par1or use, or as nationaliza-
ion OF property for soap box fulmin-
atoms or as extreme paternalism
Tor vote-getting purposes. or as de-
reduced 20 the purity OF
absurdity as snare for unwary
dealists, It has a way of getting in
Is strokes and Of working harm be-
'ors its presence Is suspected.
The vastly larger part OF extrem-
SIN in America, that may qualify as

indulgence in the gilt

"BATrLNG BoB's" FIRST LOVE

"BAITIlNG BOBS" FIRST LOVE
From the New York Tribune.
Senator La Toilette. the best
friend in Congress Of the British
and German merchant marines, is
greatly disturbed at the thought that
the shipping bill may be passed by
a Senate which doesn't represent the
voters. He says that a Senate RE-
publican by twenty-four majority is
TO be succeeded next March by
Senate Republican by only ten ma
iority. Therefore the country has
turned anti-Administration and no
bill which the Administration favors
ought to be allowed to go through.
According to this reasoning, the
farmers relief measures which the
President has recommended ought
also to be put over until the1hext ses-
sion. In fact. the Senate ought to
take three-day recesses until March

He berates a bill which
Is intended to liquidate the catas-
trophe OF government ownership and
operation of merchants shipping. At
5he same time he defends the expert |
ment which put the government into
shipping for loss Of $4,000, geo, 900. |

which has justified itself" he says. !
