Bolshevik Counter-P Program
Examined Clause by Clause by Financial Expert:
Economic Monetary Fundamentals

In m ountain stream be forced up hill.
Tho second big principle is that the
channels for tho natural flow OF money
and credit can be cleared OF debris and
can even be diverted to greater or
less extent from their accustomed
course, but nlways the engineering
must be sound, the flow must ho in the
natural direction and tho outlet Mt the
mouth must be adequate. This means
as applied to money and credit, that
tho demands Of trade must either ex-
ist or be capable Of progressive devcl-
opmcnt on basis OF safety and in nc
cordanco with civilized customs Of
procedure. Democracy has como to be
the accepted civilized code, and Is we'll
defined in tho preamble to the Constitu-
tion OF the United States, Under that
preamble every man has a right to ac-
quire through honest effort whatever
he IS capable Of acquiring and to hold
it for such uses as he may see fit to
mako of it.

hand and all other countries Of the
world on the other" In the light Of
what has already been said about the
danger Of meddling with natural law
no comment seems necessary from the
conomic-m onetary standpoint. The au-
thors Of this clause are not so ignorant
as to believe their own words. If they
arc as ignorant as that they should at
once be removed from their present
pinnacle Of stolen power. The truth is
that they see in this statement Of
theirs the possibility, if they can Get

Sir: Because the Bolshevik counter
program has been published IN Ameri-
can newspapers, and because Of its ap-
parent plausibility which might de-
ceive many inexpsrt minds into adopt
Ing q sympathetic attitude, some axpla-
nation of its true meaning needs to be
made.
Clause I, calling for Concentration
Of effort by the conference on rcduc-
ton Of European military establish
ments as a prerequisite to reduction Of
national budgets" comes with very bad
odor from a group who have usurped
the power Of government In Russia
without setting up n civilized govern
ment and who continue to hold this
power only through maintaining the
largest standing army IN the world TO-
day Furthermore, there is convincing
evidence that this demand IS made in
full sympathy with If not in the inter
est OF Germany, which nation is to-day
manufacturing moro munitions OF war
than any other country in the world
despite her acceptance OF the Yer
snilles Treaty, and is doing it secretly.
In taking up the other clauses it is
well to have clearly in mind two great
fundamental economic monetary prin-
ciples, tho first and greatest of which
is that mediums Of exchange Of every
sort operate safely and cfectually only
under natural law, as distinguished
from man-madc laws. In other words,
the flow Of money and credit can as

period Of time, rs can the How of water

False Sympathy for Gandhi

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Your recent editorial on
"Ranabai and Candhi' is an intelligent
observation upon a present-day sylnp-
tom Of unrest, which calls for com
mendation and invites comment.
The Pundita, with all Of her good
works, is nearly forgotten, while
passionate feeling is now spent In be-
half OF the strange fanatic who, act
ing as an obstructlonist and posing be-
fore the world as saint, has been
seized upon by every variety of agta-
tor as symbol Of protest against
oppression.

But beyond this particular emble-

and because OF the woful lack of
knowledge among our people of India's
history and understanding of Eng

against this charge vigorously.

Is to{ling away at the soil IN hopes of

vest. Between the high cost Of labor
and the "middlemen' he is lucky if he
does make ends meet.
Does the commutcr realize that be-
fore he reaches his place of business
the farmer has completed three. and
in some cases four, hours of work IN
tho field? The farmer has no time to

he has numerous chores that must be
