Discussing the issue of Bolshevism, the speaker said that everywhere a Bolshevist propaganda appeared, it waa a settled thing that German influence and money were back of It.

The Bolshevist army in Russia, he conand German-paitinued, was German-le- d and that when the fighting in Russia ijad progressed so far that both sides were weakened, Germany would step in, take over and develop the vast rich resources and add that mtfch more to her power. "Tlien," he sifld, "when yon ask the German. What do you think the allies will be doing at that tune?' the auawer will be: 'Germany intends to keep England busy with a race war in India, and the United States busy In a war with Japan. This can be averted only by clinging to the same high Ideal, the same of sharing that held us together spirit In the last year of the war. when we fought, not as British, French, Italians or Americana, but. as soldiers for humanity.
