LENIN'S POLICY
GETTING CONTROL BY DEGREES,
NEW YORK, 6th February
In an interview an, American traveller who recently arrived from Russia, said:
"Lenin has whipped the Soviets into something resembling an ordinary Congress. Lenin has the Red Army so disciplined that it will execute orders that nobody would have dared to give it a year ago. Lenin and his followers do not want the peasants to own land or the workers to control the factories, but they do not oppone the masses in their wishes, be-hiise they wish to govern Russia, and establish their own principles of government by degrees. The Bolshevik rulers
are anxious to reach an understanding with the Allies, but dare not say so without issuing', defiant statements and revolutionary proclamations for the consumption of the masses in Russia."
