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. Spokesman-Review.

"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.

accident at Huron yesterday seems the more shocking beeause
of the infrauency of such disaster on this line. There will be
general sorrow for the trainment who met their death in the line
of dutv. In suite of safetv appliances and other methods the
railroader still takes chances. When a smash up occurs he is
usuhIIv the man who suffers first.
