American Ambassador Francis
Sounds Warning.
VANDERLIP'S WOfcDS STIR
Immense Resources and Man Poorer
of Disorganized Xatlon, Utilized
by Germany, to Be Feared.
RTE BEACH. N. H.. June 10. Warn
ing- that If a Btable government la not
established In Russia, Germany -win
utilize Kuasian resources and man
power and again become a great men
ace to the people of Europe was given
today by David R. Francis, American
ambassador to Russia. Mr. Francis is
recuperating here from illness which
compelled him to undergo a surgical
operation In London on his way home
from Archangel. He is awaiting orders
from the state department.
Mr. Krancis was prompted to make
the statement by the recent speeches
of Prank A. Vanderlip, who recently
resigned the presidency of the National
City bank or New York, in which Mr.
Vanderlip gave his views of the indus
trial situation in Europe and told
America that she must be prepared to
extend her credit to put European
business on its feet.
"I have read with great Interest,'
said th ambassador, "Mr. Vanderlip's
note of warning delivered before the
Economic club in New Tork several
days ago. Mr. "Vanderlip had un
equaled facilities for studying condi
tions in Europe during his four or five
months' visit and- his address, coming
as it does from the recently resigned
president of the largest financial Insti
tution in America, imparts most valua
ble information. He is not in the diplo
matic service; if he .were he would
have thought a second time concerning
his utterance about labor conditions in
England. Those conditions are more
or ,les serious in every European
country and merit attention even in
the United States.
Bolshevism Bad for X,abor.
The bolshevik spirit which is now
manifesting itself in the Canadian
strikes, I am glad to see is Irowno
upon by the labor unions in that coun
try as well as in our own. If that
spirit should dominate in the new
world or even if it should permeate
labor circles to the extent it did in
Russia in the beginning of the bol
shevik revolution. It would, as it did
there, attempt to appropriate the lands
and that would be very deplorable for
the labor unions of America.
"Here the public domain, immense as
it, lias practically all been taken up
by settlers who won the soil they till
and Would not listen with any patience
to the bolshevik doctrine of nationaliz
ing: the land.
"Lenine has realized this as. before I
lnft Russia, he said bolshevism had no
-cause to fear the league land owners
or feudal barons as he called them, but
the small holders among the pesantry
were the most powerful enemies of
bolshevism.
Russia Coold Feed All Korope.
I did not intend to digress, however,
even to this extent from what I wished
to pay concerning Mr. Vanderlip's ad
dress. "While he visited almost every
accessible country in Europe, bel
ligerant and neutral, he did not go
to Russia nor mention the resources of
that afflicted country in his com
prehensive statement. He did not even
take into account the productive
rapacity In Russia when he stated that
the population of Europe had grown
l'rom 110 million to 440 million and
without increasing its 'productivity
nearly in the same ratio.
"The annual average grain produc
tion of Russia for five years was 3.247,
100,000 bushels as against the United
States, 2.264,446,000 bushels.
"It will be seen from these figures
that Russia, notwithstanding her popu
lation of 180.000,000 people, can furnish
enough surplus to feed all of the re
mainder of Europe. These figures show
only the capacity of Russia for grow
ing those grains which sustain Euro
pean life. Europe has not yet learned
lo eat cornbread.
"I shall not tire your readers on this
occasion to mention other immeasur
able resources of Russia except to say
that that country has boundless forests
of timber, enormous deposits of coal,
ropper and lead, to say nothing of her
'leposits of tho precious ores, gold,
yilvcr and platinum.
(irrrnin Influence In Bosnia Strons:.
"Germany has not only been studying
the immense resources of Russia for a
half century, but during the past sev
eral decades has given careful atten
t ion to tho Russian character going so
lar as to place lierman teachers
i.ussian schools. As I said In my testi
mony before the Overman committee
of the senate and on various other oc
casions, if Germany had deferred the
war a necado or five years even, she
would have had such a strong foothold
in Russia thnt it would have been im
possible to dislodge her. I havn also
expressed the view many times that It
would be difficult, if possible, to es
tablish peace in Europe with chaos
prevailing in Russia or even "with bol
shevik rule dominating Russia.
"It is also my conviction if , stable
povernment is not established In Rus
sia that Germany will utilize the re
sources of that country, organize Its
man-power as Germany knows so well
how to do and become as powerful and
as great a menace to the people of
Europe at the end of one or two do-
cades as she was at the beginning of
tne worm war. i-doyd .eorge said to
one of his colleagues at the Paris con
ference 'any peace which we negotiate
here with Russia left out would be a
travesty, for Russia comprises half of
the dryland of Europe and half of Asia
also' and he mipht have added over
one-seventh of the dry land of the
earth.
