Europe seems to have s popularity or pos- sssion would be its litions in Hungary ts failed to get the ex- Id upon the government and ey had in Russia is indica- tive of an awakening on the part Jof the latter. A European correspondent takes the following optimistic view of the Bol. shewvist on ; “ The t collapse of the Red governm of Hungary may be taken as a happy augury of the future of the Bolshevist government of Russia. Such a gover: tis bound to collapse be- cause it arrogates all authority to itself without ; had the necessary ex- perience in management * of the state. This is illustrated by a state- ment recently issued by Lenine, the leader of the Russian Bolshevists. In this statement the Red leader par ex- cellence almost bemoaned the necessity for having been forced to call in the hated * bourgeoisie’ to get business go- ing and to manage financial questions, since these same * bourgeoisie’ were the only ones wha could do it, From Mun- ich in Germany, which has been under Red rule, there comes a report also that the troops of the duly elected Ebert government have entered the city and that the Red Rule there has collapsed. Perhaps there are the signs that we have long been waiting for: namely, of the beginning of the end of Bolshevism im Europe and the world.” CENTRE MILLS.
