AMERICA IN LITTLE OR NO DANGER FROM BOLSHEVISM Charles E. Hughes in an address a few days ago to the New York Lotus Club, said helid not fear Bolshevism. "One of the patriotic civic organizations of. Chicago asserts ihat the best way to treat nolshevism in that city would be to furnish a thousand soap boxes on the streets of Chicago, to the Russian Hol . shevists, and let them blow up let them talk their fool heads off. Mr. Hughes said in his'speech: I "In that system of government fafliire is inherent because its economic fallacy is going to be demonstrated." Nothing kills an economic fallacy so dead as a thorough test. That test is being made in Russia, and the world is looking on.r If Socialism in action had to be tried on a large scale in order to A DIROE To The Unreturning Soldiers - j(By W. T.

In commenting on the work which he is about to undertake Mr. Long worth said: "it would seem, the height of folly to allow Germany agaia 10 absorb and control the American market in these meat im portant industries." That this sentiment is indorsed by the business men of America gener ally Is evidenced by articles which have appeared recently in "The Na tion'a Business." the monthly publi cation of the United States Chamber of Commerce, sad in nrt . publications. .... . - a ne notification from the alien property custoaian is believed to have been made chiefly for the pur pose of minimlxing.
