Si "The problem of the American class f! Is- to obtain the weakening of both 1m- perlallstid sides in tha European ooi flict in order to make American capital ism the heir of 1 uropean capitalism. That la why the praise bestowed upon us by Mr. Wilson, when only two' week, before the American 'and entente press called us German agents, has not called out from our side the enthusiastic re sponse expected. "At any rate we believe If Mr. Wll aon and Mr. IJoyd George really Bought a quick peace, through their lastest formulae,, they ahould have shown It by consenting to join In general peace negotiations. - ' "Only by such participation could they have knocked out of the hands of the German government the main weapon, by which It maintains internal discipline. ) . "The refusal? of the entente to Join In negotiations enabled the German gov ernment to show Its workmen that America. France and England desire Germany and therefore Germany must AOS 11 U IV 1110 oxA. j "On the other hand, the participation of all the warring lands In the negotia tions would have created such a peace sentiment among the peoples that It would nave made impossible a renewal of war after the long .welcomed armis tice andt would nave forced a negotiated. damecratie neace. "Any attempt to renew the war after- aegotlatlona would undoubtedly result In the overthrow of all the governments. That Is why the entente fought shy of our Invitation to join the general peace negotiations. . "They hope still to crush the central empires and they do not desire to sacri fice their own imperialistic ambitions." At this point I asked: "But Isn't President Wilson's latest formula, despite the refusal to join in general.' negotiations, a step forward?" . "Inasmuch as the other warring coun- and nervous.

"They may be reduced practically to the fact that their atti tude gives the German imperialists carte blanche to satisfy thair appetites at Russia s expense and then seek a compromise agreement with their other enemies. s "Mr. Lloyd George, In one of his re cent speeches, practically expressed this thought by a threat against Russia. "Therefore, we regard the German de mands given us at Brest-Lltovsk as com ing directly from Germany, but silently approved by the govarnmanta of , the entente." "What effect would the entrance of the entente to the negotiations at the pres ent moment have 7" I asked. "If the allies should announce their willingness to join in negotiations for the purpose of establishing a general, democratic peace, it would immediately call out a colossal response from Aus tria and Germany," Trotsky replied, con tinuing: "We are conducting our negotiations so-as to enable the entente to join at any moment." , I then asked: "Will Russia conclude an annexation ist, imperialistic peace, should the. allies x Ai-- i ... . 1 1 ii -m uu lu juiu au uia aesoiiaiiuna, uie Eu ropean workers not respond to Russia's call for help and the central empires seek to force , their imperialistic de mands?" .

It was pointed out that Trotsky's vision had been I blurred by unfavorable press comment in this country and England despite the fact- that the American government has never countenanced such an attitude. The interview emphasizes. It was added. that Lloyd George committed a blunder in his speech, virtually stating, that Russia's future was her own concern. now that she has undertaken separate peace with, Germany. It was largely to counteract the in fluence of this statement that President Wilson shortly afterward addressed con gress, declaring ' this country is de termined to help Russia, whatever she does. Entente diplomats, upon reading the interview, declared Trotsky's interpreta tion of the Wllson's-Lloyd George's ad dresses "'is the inevitable result of the distorted Bolshevik perspective, which is baaed upon an attitude of distrust. At the Russian embassy it was held to be evidence that Trotsky has suf fered from loss of tact as a result bf anger brought on by refusal of the allied governments to recognise him, the attitude of Finland and Koumania and! the stinging action of Germany in meet ing? his peace offers With demands for I added territory. ime-Tried Blbod .
