IGNORANCE IS BASIS
OF BOLSHEVIK RULE
Count Tolstoy Tolls How Kcrcnsky Betrayed Korniloff and
Russian Army and How Germany Financed Lenine
to Bring Ruin to One-Sixth of the Earth
"How can we avert Bolshevism in
America?" Count Ilya Tolstoy was
asked following the public meeting
I held under the auspices of the
I Chamber of Commerce in the Cliest
i nut street auditorium last night when
! lie addressed a large audience on
j "Bolshevism."
"How can be avert Bolshevism?"
the count repeated* the quesiton. "I
|am not so familiar with your condi
tions, but I will say that if you edu
cate your people to the meaning of
Bolshevism and the dangers of it, you 1
won't have this menace. That is what j
I'm trying to do—educate the people,
against the dangers.
"I have come to tell you nothing!
but the truth," he said in opening his!
address. "It is very difficult." In his j
broken English ho began by telling j
of the vast distances in Russia. "It i
is one-sixth of the earth," he said.j
"All of this enormous country is j
peopled by the Russian peasants. Iti
is the peasant that forms 85 per cent, j
ot the population of Russia. He is!
mistreated and misruled by the 801-j
sheviki as cruelly and brutally as he!
was mistreated and misruled under j
the regime of the Romanoff's and the;
Czars. He suffered all his life. Now j
again he suffers under the rule of:
the Bolshevik!. He is accustomed to!
suffer and he suffers now silently as
he suffered before.
"The Russian peasant did not take i
part in the revolution of 1917. He |
was not prepared for it. The revo- i
lution started in Petrograd and!
Moscow. They are the seats of gov- |
eminent because they are connected
with telegraph and telephone and |
railroads.
"The revolution was only small at
first but the army joined it and it

developed into a great uprising. IVe
expected it after the war but we
never thought it would come during
the war. The political parties were
not in power and for a long time the
power of government was in doubt,
I so it was decided to give it to the
best members of the Duma." The
count sketched the growth of the
political parties after the war.,
"Ukase No. 1. which is to be blamed
for the disintegration of the entire
Russian army .was issued not by the
government but by the Soviets who
came into power.
KornilolT Betrayed
"When the Soviets were placed in
power they didn't trust the provis
ional government and always inter
fered with it. Then the propaganda
of the Bolsheviki was scattered in!
the army. This propaganda was sup- i
ported by the German government, j
Lenine was supported by the German i
government, too, and this is a facU
Lenine himself does not deny.
The count continued his recital,!
telling of Kerensky's rise and power,!
and how he betrayed General Korn- 1
iloff and his army. "Kerensky be-j
trayed Korniloff and having betrayed
him he betrayed the whole Russian
army at the same time," He outlined
the fall of the Kerensky government.
"The last months of Kerensky's gov
ernment were the agony of the provi
sional government," he said. "Ker- |
enslcy gave up his power almost will- j
ingly to the Bolsheviki."
"I will now explain to you what
the word 'Bo'sheviki' means," Count I
Tolstoy continued.. "It is derived j
from the Russian word meaning
I 'more.' It is a narrow doctrine made
'in Germany. The uneducated peas-
I ants hear the word 'Bolsheviki'
J meaning- more, and they think it
| means more of everything. If you
| ask them. 'Are you a Bolsheviki?'
I they say 'Yes.' They think they'll get
I more hoots, more food, more money.
They do not know. We all want more.
In that respect we are dll Bolshe
viki."
He told of the growth of the So
! oial-Democratic party, how it was
I separated into two parties, one of
! which was known as the "Bolshe
viki." Here he interpolated one of the
reasons for Russia's collapse during
the war, saying it was hec&use only
one per cent, and a little more of
the industry is developed in Russia.
In his broken English the speaker
continued his lecture. "It seems
strange to you that a small part
can hold a country in power. It is
because the government of Russia is
in Petrograd and Moscow. Here the
people are organized. In the country
the peasants are not banded to
gether, because they are separated
|by enormous distances. They cannot
; get together. You can find many
peasants who never saw a street car,
a railway, electricity, telephone or
telegraph. The labor class is the only
class that is organized. They, with
i deserters from the governmental
forces, formed the Red Army,
j "Before the revolution the peasant
I lived a very miserable lite, but if he
> had money he cOufd buy something,"
| the count said. "Xow he has his
I pockets and even boots full of money
but he cannot buy anything. The only
industry now working in Russia is the
printing press, and it is busy printing
money. They print it by the sheet and
they don't have to tear it apart so
they pay by sheets of money instead
c*. only by small bills. When a man
sells something to the government he
gets a sheet of money. The only good
I can see for this money is to use it ■
for wall paper. I will say that the ]
Bolsheviki are successful in doing one '
thing—in making money. Boots are |
selling at SSOO and you can't get them ;
sugar is S4O a pound and you can't get j
itj dog flesh, dog flesh, mind you, is j
$3 a pound and you can't get it. |
Foople are starving in Russia at the I
rate of 200,000 a month.
"The Russian peasant doesn't care !
who s at the head of the government, i
He uants land, land, land and then 1
some more land, that is all he wants.
Now he doesn't want more land be- I
cause he doesn't need it. Before he I
could sell his crops and get money. !
Xow the Bolsheviki take his crops. He
raises only enough for himself and his
family and buries it. If he don't give
up his wheat to the Bolsheviki they
shoot him. The Bolsfceviki say they
gave the land to the peasants. Xo! the
peasants just took it and now the small
communities are fighting among them
selves over the land problem, so it is
just as bad as ever."
In telling of the damage done by the
Bolsheviki soldiers the speaker narrated
that a friend of his was accosted by a
soldier. "How much did you pay for
your coat'.'" he was asked. Two hun
dred dollars," the man replied. "Let
me see it," the soldier commanded. The
coat was given to him. "Xow you can
buy it back for $200," the soldier said.
Bolshevism is not understood in
America. The social movement here Is
not the same as in Russia. The I. W.
W. .s moving toward Bolshevism but
is still very far from it. Bolshevism
Is absolutely Impossible In a oounlr>
w here you know what democracy
menus. People ho have something
to lose will never become Bolshev
ists."
"Bolshevism in Russia is the result
of misery and poverty and famine of
the country." he continued. He opposed
armed intervention in Russia and said >
that an Allied army is an excuse for I
the Bolsheviki's maintenance of mili- '
tary force:;. "Peed Russia and let them j
alone," he said. "Feed the Bolsheviki, I
too. The are human ! They have wom
en and children who are not responsible '
for the crimes of their husbands and !
fathers. You will give the country the I
forces she needs to fight the organisms
of Bolshevism."

W. Hartman led in community singing. |

Yankee Officers and
Interpreters to Go With
Poles Across Germany
By Associated Press
C'oblenz, April 17.—Seventy-five
American officers, with interpreters,
have been assigned for duty on
trains which will cross Germany
with Polish troops. On each train
there will be an Allied convoy, and
at each German' station where trains
will stop there will be Allied guards.
Successful co-operation between
German technical railway workers
and German military authorities, on
one hand, and the Polish troops, on
the other, will be insured by the in
tervention of Allied guards and offi
cers wherever necessary. The mili
tui> mission in charge of the trans
portation of General Haller's forces
consists of thirty-two members.
Seek Way to Place
Wires Across Susquehanna
The question of what procedure
must bo followed by a telephone
company when it wishes to cross a
river to obviate necessity of switch
ing business through yn exchange
miles away was raised to-day before
the Public Service Commission in
a statement tiled by the Pfoutz
t alley Telephone Company, operat
ing in the eastern end of Perry
county. This company has a connec
tion with the W'iconisco Telephone
and Telegraph Company, which
operates in the Lykens Valley dis
trict of Dauphin county. The busi
ness is now handled through the
Harrisburg exchange of the Bell
company and the Perry concern
wants to make a direct connection
across the Susquehanna at Millers
burg over twenty miles above Har
risburg.
A complaint filed by patrons of
the Northumberland County liail
way Company, operating in the Sun
bury district, against the new fares
proposed to be effective on April 24,
charges that the company "mani
fests a desire to not only covet the
earth, but the fullness thereof." The
new fare is to be six cents and
scores of patrons protest against
it in writing and attack the plan
for having no reduced rates for
tickets.
The commission was asked by J.
J. Shubert, engaged in theatrical
enterprises in Philadelphia, to order
a reparation of $16,494.70 from the
Philadelphia Electric Company, on
the ground that charges for service
connections and extensions were ex
cessive.

Don't Be Bald
How to Slake Hair Grow Strong,
Thick and Lustrous.
Few of us get bald in a day and
1 "11 have ample warning when out
liair is thinning out.
Parisian sage is a most efficient
hair invigorator, but to immediately
stop any lurther loss of hair and
quickly start a new growth it must
be rubbed into the scalp so the
starved hair roots can really absorb
it and get the vital stimulation so
badly needed. You will surely be
delighted Willi the first application,
for your hair and sculp should look
and feel 100 per cent, better.
Parisian sage- is not expensive.
It's a scientific preparation that sup
plies all hair needs—a clean, non
sticky, antiseptic liquid that is sold
by Kennedy's Drug Store and at drug
and toilet counters everywhere with
guarantee to give you perfect satis
faction or money refunded.
Good looking hair is half the bat
tle in any man's or woman's per
sonal appearance. Neglect means
dull, thin, lifeless hair and finally
baldness, while a little attention now
insures thick and lustrous hair for
years to come. No matter what
your hair troubles try a Parisian
sage massage tonight—you will not
be disappointed.
