the war. His blunt methods at Brest- Lilovsk will be în general recollection. He is regarded here as the greatest Gir man authority on Bussian military quis tions. His statement is is follows:-
"Apparently the military operations against the Bolsheviks are not developing faroarably. General Judanitch's attack, in Petrograd has led to the defeat of his army. Whether Kolchak will have success within foreseeable time seems uncertais. The position of Denikin has also deter iorsted. He is not advancing, and, in- deed, it seems that his communications are threatened in Bank. Frem bere the state of operations cannot be Indged, but it is possible that thely this Bank threat may lead to a catastrophe to Denikin's
All the army. which have hitherto been started against operations the Bolsheviks have been detached enter- prise without any real, organic conge Fion They have as general strategic plan as their foundation. Moreover, it would appear that all the anti-Bolshevik Russian armics taken together have not the mini- mum strength which is necsmary success. fully to fight the Bolshevik army, must not be forgotten that the armies It fighting against the Bolsheviks must maintain the security of their flanks and rear. If General Judenitch during his advance on Petrograd had been able to protect his flank and communications with an army ni strong as that with
bich he attacked, he might have had more success. But even then he would- hardly have been strong enough to gain a decisive victory over the Bolshevik forces opposed to him.
"When such detached attacks are made with msuficient means like that of Gen- éral Judenitch and fail, a quite unjusti fied idea arises that the struggle against the Bolsheviks is a difficult one- In actuality, if the operations were placed on a practical footing, the overthrow of the Bolsheviks would not be at all difficult
"It is thus uncertain whether the Rus sian generals will succeed in overthrow ing the Bolsheviks within a foreseeable time. If they do not succeed, then the Bolsheviks, for their part, will advance succesfully permanent malpoise of forces is not possible between two armies engaged in battle with one another, Within a forestcable time one of the two must succomb. If, then, the Bolshevik army does not collapse, the anti-Bolshevik Hussian armies will be beaten..
*Bolshevism will, however, by no means stop at the Russian frontier. The aim of Bolshevisra is a world Aggressiveness is therefore, the
revolution. very ezsence of Bolshevism
For the realisa tion of its aggressive plans Bolshevism makes use of three weapons. These wea pons are (1), as the most effective, the Baishevik propagands, which undermines the ground in foreign countries and make them ripe for revolution. (3) The peace treaties. Here the Bolsheviks agree to conditions that may be asked of them, be cause from the first they have no intention of keeping these conditions, but make use of the state of peace merely in order to open the easiest paths for their pro- paganda (3) The Bolshevik Red army.
"The comparatively least important. weapon of the Bolsheviks, their Red army, must first be. broken before their most effective weapon, their propaganda, can be rendered innocuous, for the intellectual and material centre of this propaganda, Moscow, is covered by the Red army. With few exceptions the Bolshevik leaders havo no sort of ideal aims. They maks und of Socialistic formulas only in order to be able to seite power, to enslave the nation, and to rule themselves."
