In B. W. Howe's Monthly.
GENTLEMAN" who haa lately re
turned from Russia aays the vast
majority of the better classes
there will not raise a finger to save
their country. The one idea uppermost
in their minds is simply to escape from
the bolshevik I. but there is no idea of
turning back to fight therd; when they
have escaped, they appeal to the allies,
to anybody and everybody, to come and
tight for them, -but will not make the
slightest sacrifice or effort to do so
themselves.
A wrong Idea Is in control in Russia,
but those who oppose it, the majority,
do nothing. We have the. same situation
In the United States. We of the middle
class, the majority, do not accept what
is being done by the mistaken and very
danirerous minority, but only grumble

occasional neighbor pledged to- secrecy.

Earopeaa Conditions Viewed.
Do you realize what the actual situ
ation Is today?
Frank A Vanderltp. one of the lead
ing men of this decade, without
doubt, recently said:
"I was in Europe from the first of
February to the ninth of May. I spent
some time in England first: then
went to France, to Switzerland, to
Italy, to Spain, back to Paris again;
then to Belgium and Holland and back
to London. It is a fair statement to
say that I saw the leading men In
those countries. I met every finance
minister. I met many of the prime
ministers. I met the leading financiers
and bankera. great employers of labor,
labor leaders. And what I have to tell
you Is not just an opinion of my own.
snatched out of the blue sky. It is a
reflection, perhaps a composite of the
opinions of the first minds of Europe.
If it were not. I would not arare tell
you some of the things I am going to.
I want to say right at the beginning
that however Mack a backgr&und I
paint and it will be dark 1 would not
paint It. I would not tell the atory,
except that I believe America must
know it, most comprehend H. must get
It Into heart and mind, because we
must act: and If we do -act. we can
save Europe from a catastrophe, a
cataatrophe that will involve us. That
la why I feel moved to tell something
of the conditions that I saw over tbere.
something of some of the consequences
that may flow from those conditions. I
believe It is possible that there may be
let loose In Europe forces that will be
more terribly destructive than have
been the forces of the great war. I
believe we can probably save- the situ
ation from anything as fearful as that.
If I did not believe it, I would hesitate
to say what I shall about condition. If
I were to try to put into words what I
sum up- as the most essential thing to
grasp about the situation In Europe,
the two words would be "paralyzed in
dustry.' IaUeaieas la Ineompreheaaible.
There is an idleness, there Is a lack
of production throughout Europe, and
Indeed in England, that you can hardly
comprehend. There is a difficulty
about a resumption of work on ordin
ary peace affairs that I think nobody
could be made to comprehend that did
not see it on the ground. Of course,
there is a great scar across Europe
where there has been devastation. I
hardly need to speak of that. Tou
have been told the story. But, after all,
that Is only a scar across northern
France and Belgium, destroying a con
siderable part of the industries of those
two countries, it is true, but it is not
that devastated district that I speak
of. It is the idleness all through the
countries where the mailed hand of
war has been laid upon industry. Why
should a factory unharmed by the war,
in the midst of a continent wanting
everything, incidentally be idle? Why
snouid there be 1,000,000 people In Erne
land receiving an unemployment weekly
dole? Why should there be In little
Belgium 800,000 -people receiving s
weekly unemployment wage? Let me
try to give you a picture of the diffi
culties that a manufacturer Is under in
Europe today in an attempt to start his
factory. In the first place the manu
facturer is facing a wage situation two
or three times what the wages were
in pre-war days. I was in Spain. Spain
has been unharmed, has prospered as
she never prospered before, and but for
a terrible cancer In her she would be
the most promising place in Europe.
That cancer Is the labor situation.
There was presented at Barcelona as
perfect a laboratory of Bolshevism as
you ever saw, an organization that was
the most mysterious, the most terrify
ing, of any organization that I ever en
countered. It takes in the whole labor
ing population there. It Is secret to the
extent that the members themselves do
not know who guides it. It calls gen
era! strikes merely for gymnastic ex
ercises.
Rule Is By Assasalnarlon.
"It rules by assassination. In the
time I was there 72 employers and fore
men had within a few weeks been as
saselnated. Not one conviction. No
witnesses would testify; they were ter
rified. It terrified the papers. They
had told the papers: Tou can not pub
lish anything that we do not censor.'
They censored one paper for publishing
an official order of the government.
fined It 5000 pesetas, and told the pub
lishers they would destroy their presses
if they did not pay. They did pay, but
the censorship became so absurd that
every paper stopped publication. There
Is a minority in every country in Eu
rope, active minority, that believes in a
programme for the upsetting of social
order. In England employers estimated
to me that that minority was 10 or 15
per cent, a minority that actually be
Ueves the whole theory of property
rights should be abandoned, that we
should go into a communistic state of
aociety. -
Mr. Vanderlip outlines other causes
of the present fearful conditions
abroad, but says the real cancer is the
labor situation. This has resulted in
railroad paralysis. Mr. Vanderlip says
Herbert Hoover told him that the
breakdown in transportation in Cen
tral Europe and in the countries east
of Germany was so, serious that there
was bound to be starvation of hundreds
of thousands of people simply because
the food could not be moved. If ports
were run or rood, there would still be
many thousands of people starving.
in tne present great and temporary
emergency tne millions of Idle men in
Europe could at least go on the land,
and produce their own food; with
spades and hoes, if need be, until ma
chinery and work animals can be pro
vided: but Instead of that they are de
manding more food, more luxuries, and
less wcrk. And politicians everywhere.
n spite of public bankruptcy, are try
ing to meet these demands: England is
undertaking to build a million houses,
that the demands of the unreasonable
grumblers may be met.
Situation Gradually Spreads.
The situation abroad Is gradually be
ing duplicated here; you know it. and
I know it, God is doing nothing for
us: we must do something for our
selves. The bear has long been looking for
us, and finally he has found us. We
can't outrun him; we can't put salt on
his tail. We must fight to a finish:
hereafter bear or man will rtrie.
Thero is no doubt of the programme
agreed- upon by the disturbers, in the
United States. A mass meeting was
lately held in Madison Square garden,
in New York city, and 10.000 attended.
Addresses were made by one of Presi
dent Wilson's appointees; by one of
the editors of The Nation, the most
notable of our reviews; by a socialist
preacher; by a well-known progressive
politician, etc.; the same old new
thought crowd. All the speakers in
dorsed the Russian revolution. One
man (President Wilson's appointee)
said:
"The new world haa come, and the
oapitalists and all the other accursed
ones and their armies cannot keep back
the onrnshing flood of freeing, cleans
ing Ideas which are refreshing the
hearts and minds of men, and which
are making the face of the earth a
greener, sweeter, lovelier place to look
upon."
This meana. of course, that the meth
ods which have made Russia a greener,
sweeter, lovelier place to look npon
are to be adopted in the United States.
President Wilson himself wrote, in one '
of hie famous literary masterpieces
(January, 1918): "We assure her (Rus
sia) of a sincere welcome Into the so
ciety of free nations nnder institutions
of her own choosing; and more than
welcome assistance also of every
kind that she herself may desire.
Still later, in January of this year.
the president again took up his famous
pen, and wrote: "They (the associated
powers) recognize the Russian revolu

Another speaker praised Lenine and
Trotzky, and declared that the "Rus
sian revolution marks the one and only
beneficent result of the world war."
The speakers particularly emphasized
the point that the present revolution
Is economic; that Is, It demands a divis
ion of things. One of them likened the
Russian revolution to the French revo
lution. "It didn't dethrone the king
alone," he said; "it was economic. The
French peasants also took the land,
and distributed it among themselves.
They confiscated it."
Ths objection to the Bolshevikl plan
is that it Is not a good plan. It will
not endure; people have never long'
accepted it- France soon changed, and
adopted the system under which we
now live under which all civilized peo
ples must live.
These men are mistaken; they are
advocating a fallacy. Tne objection to.

The Scarcity of High-Class Silverware,
Both Sterling and Plated, Should
Prompt Many lo
Buy Silverware
Now
From every authentic source comes
word of an impending shortage of silver
ware for some time to come. In fact, to
some extent, a shortage already exists.
Many leading manufacturers of silver
ware are even at thil time refusing to
accept orders.
These very manufacturers predict that
for the next seven years at least the price
of silverware will not be lower than pres
ent prices.
The fact that so much silver has been
withdrawn from commercial use for coin
age purposes by the nations of the world
accounts for this condition.
We advise early selection on the part
of . those who are giving some thought
to selection of silverware, be it sterling
or plated.
In our displays are such favored pat
terns as the

unless restrained. In the tremendous
publication known as The Dial, Jessie
Wallace Hughan says:
"The programme of the British La
bor party has justly provoked the ad
miration of the liberal world. We point
with pride to an American congres
sional platform, later than the British
and profiting by it, yet to the student
of American socialism a direct devel
opment of the immediate demands of
past platforms. In addition to the call
for government ownership of public
utilities and basic industries, always
present in the socialist platform, a far
seeing succession of demands is made
for measures of present reform"
One of these reforms is inheritance
and income taxes of 100 per cent; that
is, if yon make a thousand dollars a
year, all of it must go to the state; if
you die, all of your property is con
fiscated bv the government. Do you
know of anything more' liberal in the
bolsheviki platform?
The only difference between Rus
sians and socialists elsewhere is that
the Russians have won, and are putting
their various ideas into effect. Our
bolsheviki are winning surely and
steadily because It is not opposed. We
must fight it to a finish.
