SOVIET1SM IS WANING IN RUSSIA ORRESPONDENT JOHN CLAYTON cables from Mos lJ L cow tnat a sharp division has been drawn in the bolshe vist party. Lenin, who wants to adjust action to condi tions, is opposed by Trotzky, who leads the more radical group ."in opposes aDanaonment ot principles and methods on which the soviet government was founded. Under the forceful influence of Lenin the soviet government s auanaonea much of its original program. Nationalization I land went early by the board. To placate the peasants they ere diiowea lo noid their farms under individual title. The six-hour day followed. In its place the 10 and even 12 hour day was officially substituted. The standardized wage went next. A wide differential was established between skilled and unskilled labor, the piece system was reestablished and ex traordinary rewards were offered for managerial ability in the nationalized factories and industries. Experience quickly proved that the so-called "proletariat" could not run the factories. Lenin, therefore waived the ban on "bourgeois" participation in industry and the proscribed class in many instances was actually given preferment and set above the "proletariat," both in position and salary. Conscription of labor followed the inevitable necessity to compel me common workman to fall into line and accept the new order or inequality. Of course the management of industrial establishments by the "workers' councils" had to go into the discard under these radical readjustments. Lenin found, for instance, that the iron and steel industry of Petrograd, which formerly employed from 100.000 to 150,000 men, had fewer than 7000 at work. The Moscow textile industry, which was reduced by one-third during the first half of 1919, had shrunk to almost invisible proportions by the end of the year. Lenin did not hesitate to grapple with that colossal disap pointment. He resolutely swung the ax on the very ark of the bolshevik covenant. A recent decree has abolished the workers' Soviets in the in dustries. In lieu of soviet rule dictators have been appointed who are directly subordinate to the commissaries, who are doing every thing to their power to stimulate production. " Before the national economic council at Moscow on January 28 Lenin declared that 90 per cent of the industrial dislocation of Russia was due to the system of workers' councils. He boldly declared that the only solution of the problem was the adminis tration of labor by specially appointed technical experts and the militarization of industry. The radical members of the labor unions are in revolt against this annulment of the workers' councils, with Trotzky siding with them and against Lenin. The plain truth of the matter is that the soviet experiment is practically over. It proved a colossal failure. Lenin has the vision to discern its failure and the courage to admit it, and is trying to save himself through a bold shift to a communist dic tatorship. That is the truth about soviet Russia. The country is no long er "soviet" in form of government. The "dictatorship of the proletariat" is now a memory and in its plaee the world sees the avowed dictatorship of a small group under the despotic control of Lenin. As the truth sinks into the minds of the elements in this country who were carried away with foolish enthusiasm for the so-called "dictatorship of the proletariat," we shall see here a gradual subsidence of the agitation. The bolshevik bladder has been punctured.

By January 1, travel will be possible over the Old Oregon Trail and Co lumbia highways from Pendleton to the west hank of the Ieschutes river, Mr. F.ennett estimates. The section from the Deschutes to Peuferts. Just east of The Dalles, will entail much heavy rock work and owing to delays In settling the right of way, with the railroad company and the government along the Cell to canal, it cannot pos sibly be finished this year.

"f HE protectant church has never been wise nor adequate in lL its care or thougrht of youth. These are not the words of some casual critic. The words are attributed to Bishop William F. McDowell of Wash ington, D. C, and were uttered Sunday at Des Moines before the quadrennial conference of the 34 bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church. Coming; from such a source, the sentiment expressed is significant. There are a great many people who believe that the words of Bishop McDowell are true that the church has not been wise nor adequate in its thought of youth. The hopeful thing- is that the church is learning. It is going to learn more as time goes on and its field of usefulness will be broadened accordingly- In a statement issued in California Herbert Hoover says he is against Japanese immigration and that the "antidote to ag grewive action against us by any country is either a league of nation to prevent such things or the alternative, gigantic arma ment and a militarism of our own." He is correct in this mat ter but it is timely to remark that the league covenant without article 10 would not be such an antidote. However, the league covenant as it came from Versailles would have left thia coun try free to do as it pleased about oriental immigration and would have token from Japan the right to protest by force. eee.ee. eiiii The O.-W.
