They hid nothing from us åven though it told against them. The physical alid material condition of the country is so bad that they did not attempt to hide it. There is great lack of food and clothing, of raw materials, and of transport. They" have had a tremendously fierce battle with of disease. They have bad a million case tephus, and scores of thousands of cases of malaria and small pox, and have no medicines.

ABULITION OF STRIKES. -Asked his general conclusion, Mr. Turner said:"If Bassin has peace, and the blockade is completely raised and trade relations with the rest of the world resum think Russia will be a very rich ed country in a few years' time. The inen at the head of affairs have real business The capacity for increasing production. gospel of all of them is more production; their leaflets and speeches all say the same thing. They are giving an inducement of extra food, and so on, to sections of the warkpeople to increase their output, and they are limiting the Government ration to those who do not give their best production and considering their physical condition general-efficiency. There are no strikes, because the Government won't have them There is not the freedom on the industrial side that we have in this country. Indeed, some of their proposals regarding preduc tion and the abolition of the strike would gladeh the beart of som's employers of labour here, but they do not suit me or some of my colleagues."

Mr. Turner centradieted the report that he and Mr. Tom Shaw had been held up at the Russian frontier by the Bolshevisti. He said the Esthonian authorities were responsible for the delay which arose through the non-arrival of their permit. The British Mission at Roval finally put matters right,

He recalled Huxley's disavowal of progress from the scientific side and; quoted Mr. Bertrand Russell's assertion that, in the struggle with the comic progres foresha dowed by Huxley, man must go under Dr. Inge dismissed that natural sob,' the historian, with cantempt. The politi cian had been corrupted by the super- stition On the theory of progress, whatever is coming must be right.

The votaries of progress mistake the flowing tide for the river of eternity, and when the tide turns they are likely to be left stranded like the corks and scraps of seaweed which mark the high water line. This has already happened, though few realize it. The praises of Liberty are mainly left to Conservatives, who couple it with Property as something to be defended, and to conscientious objectors, who dissociate it from their country, which is not to be defended.
