Others on the sontrary, are very medioera" The arms possessed by the army are varied: the riis, for examples, are of all patterns Band maked. The soldiers are Russian, Germans, Chinese, and Hungarians. Amoet all the Russians in the Bolshevist army have been mobilised by force, the chief exceptions being a few hundred sailors from the former Russian navy The Germans, Chinese, and Hungarians are all volunteers, and are very highly paid by the Bolsheviks. A large propor-" tion of the officer-instructors in the army are Germans, who receive the payment of generals. The officers in the cavalry are for the most part of the old regimé

With the exception of the cavalry, which has always regarded war 53 2 Bort of sport, there is but little enthusiasm for fghting in the Bolshevist army The place of enthusiasm is taken by an iron discipline. The soldiers advance because they are forced to, and because they are better fed and better paid than civilians. Each private soldier receives 100 ronbles

set when the occasion presents they are, always ready to run away, and have no more stomach for fighting. now than at the time of the Brest-Litovsk Treaty. But behind the Russian soldiers are Gerardons Godown of the Hongkong and man non-commissioned officers, and when the Bolshevist soldier retreats without orders he retreats into their revolvers. Yes, the Bolshevis soldier when he isn't Chinese or German mercenary, is sick of war. The Bolshevika came into power by promising immediate peace; but ever since then Russia has been more beset by wars than ever before. War in the Urals, war on the Volga, war in the Caucasus, war in Ukraine, war in Lithuania, war in Esthonia, war in the North, war in Poland

The great and sole pre-Buis of Lading will be countersigned by occupation of Bolshevism, which was to JARDINE, MATHESON & CO., LTD. have brought peace, has been the recruit ment and organising of armies. And that has been rendered possible only by Ger man aid. These armica, moreover, are: not permitted to exercise any of the ultra democratic principles for which Bol shevism is supposed to stand. For a long time now the”, regimental' committees have been suppressed while fraternisa tion, one of the, chief Bolshevist articles of faith when Russia was fighting against Germany, is to day possible only at the price of death. It is not surprising, then, that desertions from the Red Army have reached extraordinary proportions and that the Bolshevist Government has had to create a Commission whose task it is to capture and execute deserters. !

RUSSIA'S NEW CHAINS.

But, it will be asked, if this is the spirit of the Russian elements in the Red-Army, why have Denikin and Koltchak boen defeated? Why are the Bolshevist armas successful? Without doubt, between the wild hopes of the Bolshevist leaders and the desires of the Russian people, there is an abyss of differences; but the Russian people are passive. Eighty per cent. of them are illiterate and stupid; they are a people which for too long has known no other law than the law of the knout; and vodka, that brain-eating liquid, has been Locir only pleasure. For centuries they have borne the rule of Tsarism, and ever since the revolution their steps have been dogged by a fatal atavism that has allow ed them to make no other use of their liberty, but to forge for themselves new chains. And so they submit to Bolshevist rule; and, except that they are ready to desert their flag when they get the chance. they consent to march against Denikin and Judenitch and Koltchak, who, they are told, are Tsarists and counter-revolu tionaries.

And after all, the defeats. of Denikin and Koltchat are not so surprising. Against Denikin's 230,000 men are array,

Denikin had taaks and aeroplanes to help. out his fewness of numbers, he would have been beaten long ago. What can so few do against so many in the long run? And Koltchak is worse of.

„A BULBO-GERMAN ALLIANCE,

But the chief reason, to which all others are but contributory, for the Bolshevist successes is German help. Germany has only one hope in the future for the re- venge she desires, for the markets and raw materials she must have. That hope is Russia-a Russian alliance which will be like the alliance with Austria, only stronger and more formidable, because of Kussa's huge numbers. And it is my belie: that the Bolsheviks aim at such an
