RUSSIAN REVOLUTION -
FROM MANY ANGLES
Bolshevism Defended and Attached by Various Writers.
Relations of America to the Slav Problems
Tho Hussion revolution is likely to
bo the cause of the writing of as many
books as the French revolution. Tho
full, 'authentic history of It In nil its
phases cannot be written for many
years. In the meantime nlmost every
writing man who has been In Russia at
any time within the Inst threo years
has written a book about what has been
happening.
That bolshcvlsm is of interest to the
whole world Is evident to the most
casual render of tho newspapers, John
Xpargo, u Socinllst who Ims withdrawn
from tho extreme wing of his party, has
Just written of "Itussla ns on American
Problem." Ho elaborates the thesis
that America is vitally Interested In the
economic nnd political rehabilitation of
Uussla. The relation of Iluvdu to the
rest of the world will depend largely,
In his opinion, on whether American,
(Icrninu or Japanese capital Is ucd to
develop its resources. Of course he
would like to see American capital
plnrcd at the disposal of the Hussions.
His book is really a plea for tin1 eco
nomic Intervention of the United States.
In "Tho Psychology of Holshcvtsm,"
Mr. Spargo says that the Itolshcvlsts
arc the "victims of hysterical hyper
esthesia." "Their thought processes
ore spasmodic nnd violently emo
tional. " "Their typo of mind has been
tho subject of much extensive observa
tion nnd study, particularly in connec
tion with religious forms of listeria."
Mr. Spargo elaborates these statements
in his examination of the subject.
Arthur Bullard, in "The Hussion
Pendulum." has rmuch to say about
I.enlne, the originator of bolshcvlsm,
which justifies Spnrgo's views. Mr.
Dullard was tho secretary of the
Friends of Hussian Freedom at onu
time, and in that capacity met Lenine
In Switzerland in 100.". After wo en-
novcr knows what is cood for
11. JJU
n nn nis mini nn inc e iiiik niencii mili
tant minority," "the olite of the prole
tariat." Ho insists that the-, majority
would bo benefited by what tho minority
iln.a fnr tt lint thnt it 4 Tlflt. nl)l(!
them. All those woo t-tunu in tnc way
nro tn'lin dnatrnx'eil us tho shortest XMIV
for setting up the kind of Institutions
which "tho elite of .the proletariat"
thinks best. Mr. nullnrd's book is more
than n study of Ienlnc. It is u brief
rcsumo of the swing of tho Russian
pendulum from autocracy through de
mocracy to bolshcvlsm.
Albert Ithys "Williams, a Socialist,
has written u tribute to Jvcninc. whom
ho rcgnrds ns a great social reformer.
His Uook, "Lenin: the Man nnd
Ills 'Work," is an enthusiastic and
discriminating eulogy of tho revolu
tionary lender. If one rends it with
tho knowledge of the nuthor's predilec
tions one will not bo grievously misled.
The book contains nlso the impressions
of Colonel Haymond Robins and Arthur
Uanome.
Tho conditions that immediately pre
coded tho Bolshevist revolution are set i
forth in "The Prelude to Bolshevism."

FRENCH VIEW OF
WALT WHITMAN
Leon Bazalgetlc's Life of thc
Poet Now Printed in an
English Translation
If tho theory is sound that thc judg
ment of n foreign country is the judg
ment of history, then Walt Whitman's
fnmo is secure. T.con Haznlgctte. a
rench man of letters who translated
"Leaves of Grass" into French, hns
written n biography of thp poet which
acclaims him as ono of the great
gomijscs of his time. This biography,
which nppenred In 1007, has just been
translated into English for the benellt
of American renders. M. Huzulgefte
has drawn largely on tin America,, ,
nooks about Wi tman for l,ls fnefs
Hut he has drawn on his own apprecia
tion of tho man for his estimate of his
poetry.
In his introduction ho makes the in-
leresung stntement that
no (lectures innt wiiltmnu more an.
more dominates the L-rmm. There nn
a few Americans who will agree, but
there are moro who will dispute. Vt
tho fact is that thc farther wo get from
inc living w unman tnc lugger heseetu
to be. Mr. Pnzulgctto's book accepts
Whitman in his entirety tls thout:''
everything that ho wrote were great. If
he had been a little more critical in hi
discriminating tho unprejudiced would
hnvo been better pleased. Yet the book
will servo to interest Americans in
Whitman who have shied awuy from
him iu the past. It is divided into eight
parts, each devoted to a separate phase
of tho poet's life. It begins, of course,
with his youth and follows him through
his life In New York, IJrooklyn, WiimIi
ington and Cumdcn nnd ends with a
description of the funeral In Harlelgh
Cemetery.

Different phnses of the situation lire
touched unon in books bv Carl W Ark
rrmau, Oliver M. Snvler and Robert
Crozler Long. In "Trailing the V.ol

tho news dlspntchcs that he wrote to
American newspapers while he wn with
tho Allies in Siberia. Mr. Snlrr. in
"Russia, "White or Red," tells of his
experiences during six months, the
rronter part of which lie spent in Mos
cow studying tho Russinn theatre. It
deals with; the life of the people during
tho revolutionary period nnd discloses
conditions which hnvo not been con
sidered nfc length by other writers. Mr.
Long, who has been the Associated
1'ress correspondent in Rusln for sev
eral years, writes in "Russian Revolu
tion Aspects" n scries of Intimate
sketches of men and things trom the
point of view of a mnu who understands
the Russian people nnd the Russian
rroblcms.
Thnrles Kdwnrd Ru.ell. in "Bol

eltemptcd to set forth for the informa
tion of Americans tho fatal defects in
the theories of Lenine. und to show
Low the worst sufferers under their ap
plication have been the ury persons
for whose benefit they were said to bo

And OIo Hanson, former mayor of
Seattle, has told In "Americanism ver

Bolshevists during hjs mii.iornlty arid
how they were unable to understand the
fundamental principles of Americanism.

The Public Schools
The duty of parents to send their
children to tho public schools is the
burden of Prof. Dallus Lore Sharp's
little book on "Patrons of Democracy."
Professor Shnrp occupies the chair of
nnglish in Hoston University and lives
In Hinghnm. lie sends his childien to
the public schools, where thev do not
meet the children of his neiglihnr- and
friends. The friends and neighbors -av
the public schools arc not good enough
for their children and Professor Sharp
retorts that if they are not good enough
for their children then they are not
good enough for the community.
His theory is thnt tho way to develop
and Protect democracy is by bringing
the children of nil social groups together

Ever since NOCTURNE by
Frank Swinnerton was issued
his position in the eyes of
American critics and discriminating
readers has been assured. It is a fa
miliar occurrence for a writer
especially a writer in a foreign countryto
produce excellent work for years c -mpara-
tiv?ly unobserved by Americans, and then,
qiiHrlpnlv. SOtn OMft hook strikfift-the Snark for
ss' ------ j w-.-v v..v .- , jr
the tinder and popular imagination is fired.
So it happened with Hugh Walpole in FOR
TITUDE. So it happened with Somerset
Maugham in THE MpON AND SIXPENCE.-
Swinnerton did the same with NOCTURNE, and now thc
publication of
SEPTEMBER
has started afresh the really impressive tributes to his very
fine art. His work has a finish, a controlled intensity, and
an unstrained originality that are the more remarkable in
a writer still in his thirties. SEPTEMBER, just published,
has been pointed to by critics everywhere as one of thc
most notable novels of 1920. Those readers who have
made this happy discovery for themselves will find the
earlier rovels by this author of a piece with his later work,'
finely sensitive and creative, looking upon life today with
clear eyes, realistic and romantic in one.
