Newspaper Page Text(I THE MORXIXG OREGOXIAX, FRIDAY, JANUARY 21, 1931 I OLSTOY SAYS REDS REGIME NEWS END Son of Russian Novelist Speaks-to Business Men. NOTED REFUGEES FROM RUSSIA WHO ARE VISITING IN PORTLAND. 4 s J 1 ' 1 1 if r, & S ROAD TAX- REPEAL i 4 PORTLAND BEST LIKED Tassivc Allies and Ivack of Crusade for Loaders Hastening Bolshe yikl Downfall, Says Count. That the bolshevik regime In Rus sis is now rauidly nearir.g Its end la the prediction of Count Ilya, Tolstoy, eon of the noted Russ'an novelist, who spoke yesterday at the luncheon of the Progressive Business Men's club at the Benson hot.il. Count Tolstoy and Countess Tol toy, his wife, who are refugees from Russia, are now en route to New York city from San Francisco and ,are visiting a few days in Portland. They are making: their headquarters at the Seward hotel. Count Tolstoy said that Be louna Portland the most beautiful city he had yet seen In tLe United States. In his address at the Progressive Business Men's club the count de- rlared that bolshevism was tne cnuo of violence and that consequently the policy of non-resistance which had been adopted by the allies and the fact that there was now uu i-.u-eade" upon which the leaders in Rus sia could call their followers meant that bolshevism would die speeauy. Bolnhevlam Dying Oat. rt,. nri nf bolshevism is near- Jng," he declared. "Its support in the past has been the opposition of the generals and of the allies." Count Tolstoy said that the way to fight bolshevism was by a policy of non-refstance and love. "Open up the blockade against Kus ela," he aid. "Let them have supplies . of provisions and other things that they need. The result will be that every man who becomes well fedwill become an enemy of bolshevism." He said that at the present tims the bolshevik leaders hope to spread their beliefs through India and other countries of Asia. "They do not believe It possible at this time to spread bolshevism In other sections of Europe and the United States. However, they think that India and other sections of Asia would be easy prey. Once intrenched among the populations of Asia, they hope to spread to other parts of the world with their beliefs." Monro vr Has Bolsheviiit School. He said that now at a school at Moscow 200 young men were learn ing tha doctrines of bolshevism so that they could spread these doctrines throughout the world. That bolshevism has been afallure In its hope of building a structure of communism upon the ruins of de stroyed capitalism was declared by Count Tolstoy. ' "The first step In the -programme of the bolsheviki, the destruction of capitalism, has been complete." be aid- "The next step lp the proposed programme, the erection of the struc ture of communism, has failed, and the leaders of the movement realize .ho tViw hav. foilari" -',- . He said that one sign of the failure of the communistic movement is the fact that a new middle class is being formed in Russia just as one was formed In France after the revolution. Feasant Not Good Bolahevlata. Count Tolstoy said that in contrast to the bolsheviki in the cities of Rus Bia were the peasants on the farms, who did not subscribe to the doctrines of the bolshevik regime. These peas lints, he said, refused to sell bread to the people of the cities for the new paper money. In addition he said that the cities were cut off by railroad communications so that famine condi tions were prevailing. "The result to the bolshevik regime,' he said, "is that there is a heavy death rate and an exceedingly low birth rate. People are dressing In homespun and in shoes of bark ajid are (burning wooden splinters for light as they did 100 years ago. Many are also going back to the country districts fn the hope of getting food. The speaker said that 90 per cent of the people of Russia lived In. the country districts and consequently that the bolshevik regime embraced only a small percentage of the popu lation of the country. Trade Almost Impossible. In referring to possibilities for trade with Russia at the present time be expressed the belief that the Rus sian people could not pay for goods in any considerable quantities and for that reason any trade relations at this time could not be of great importance. He said he did not think that Russian trade would be a great factor until the bolsheviki were overthrown. Both Count and Countess Tolstoy speak English fluently, with a slight foreign accent. The countess handles the difficult English repartee in a clever manner aud she proved herself a gracious visi tor to the city. When told that she was to be pho tographed' so that her beauty could be spread on Portland's morning newspaper, she laughingly demanded, "Why the beauty?" Count Tolstoy spoke at the Oregon Agricultural college Wednesday. He will go to Salem Monday to speak before the Rotary club there. Builirai Mea Hold Election. The Progressive Business Men's club approved the proposed uniform false statement in writing law at yoMerday's luncheon. 1'revlously to the address of the count the following officers were elected unanimously: Dr. William F. Fiebig. president: William B. Lay ton, first vice-president; B. F. Boynton, recond vice-president; H. Girard Effinger, treasurer; Byron J. Seattle, secretary. The following trustees were elect ed: H.

"The most positive gain out of the world war is the growth of the college stu dent body ot the cation." said Dr, Frank Dyer, pastor of the First Con gregatlonal church of Tacoma, Wash. in an address ncre last, night. The occasion was the celebration of "Charter Pay," better known as Pa cific's birthday pay, for on January 10. 1854, the territorial legislature granted a charter to Tualatin academy and Pacific university, superseding the original charter of 1849. The cele bmtion was postponed a week that Dr. Dyer might be the . guest ot nonor. Dr. Dyer, who has. held the Tacoma pastorate for eight' years. Is a gradu ate of Wheaton college and Chicago Theological Seminary and received the degree of doctor of divinity from Pacific university in 1915. "This enlargement of the student body has led to serious overcrowding of state institutions," said Dr. Dyer. "The University of California, which I visited recently, has an enrollment 01 10.000." The meeting was of Interest also because President Clark announced that a manager had been engaged to direct a campaign of expansion and that the drive for ?2.000,000 additional endowment would soon begin. Dr. Dyer's address was on "The Pilgrim Fathers." He said In part: "Three hundred years ago the May flower lay at anchor on the coast of Massachusetts. It has been said that history was on the side of the Pil grims, but I say that the Pilgrims were on the side of history. What Columbus meant to geography, the Pilgrims meant to democracy, i The Pilgrims found the continent, but they brought America, the essence of the new world, with them."

(Special Cable.) Sir Auckland Geddes' return home at this juncture has aroused as much Interest as did the return of A. J. Balfour after his war mission and Lord Grey at the conclusion of his stay in Washington. It has encour aged all manner of speculation, but the fact is that Premier Lloyd George wants to receive a report in person from the British ambassador on the American opinion today toward the outstanding political and economic issues facing the world. As Ambassador Geddes' arrival just precedes the Anglo-French confer ences on Germany's reparations obli gations, it is naturally supposed that the British premier wanted him to come to London before the British and French governments took up the all-important question of how much Germany was to pay and how long a time she should be allowed to do It. There is still some hope here that the Harding administration may be willing to come to some arrangement about a parallel-basic payment of war debts; that is, to be willing to accept the Anglo-French point ot view that it is to be paid when Ger many pays Britain, and France, ajid in proportion to the amount paid by Germany. There is nothing to Justify tnis optimism. On vthe contrary, the best opinion inclines to tne view tnai mo Harding administration will consiaer it has gone the limit if it grants additional time for payment. What no one here denies, who Is at all in touch with the government. Is that the Irish question will be of overshadowing importance in the premier's meeting with Ambassador Geddes. ' The liberals Deiieve mat ine am bassador, after his many months in America, will come home convinced that no solid basis of friendship can be builded up between tne two na- un. nnius the Irish question is Justly settled, and tjr"ey hope he will tell Premier Lloyd ueorge so in uncertain terms.
