RUSSIA AND THE WORLD.
"I can see no real peace in Europe until the Russian problem is settled," said Mr William E. Borah in the Senate of the United States. "It is my belief there can be no disarmament of jany moment, particularly land disarmament, until Russia is brought into the family of nations and amicable relations and clear understanding with all other Powers are established; that there can be no economic health or stability in Europe, or the world, so long as this gigantic Power, stupendous and incalculable in her natural wealth and her man-power, is writhing and struggling to escape her thraldom. . . . I would establish normal relations with the Russian Government. In doing so I would not assume I was endorsing I the Communistic theory; in doing- so I 1 would not endorse their method of jcarrying on their government; in doling so I would have no fear of their [teachings or their propaganda undsrjmining American citizenship. I would [believe that as Russia is there, with jher 150,000,000 people, occupying one-sixth of the earth's surface, we I have to deal with her, and that it is [better to Ujeal with her in that way
than in the abnormal and extraordinary way which leads to abnormal and extraordinary policies."
