SCOURGE OF BOLSHEVISM.
QUESTION OF INTERVENTION,
(Reuter's Telegram.) PARIS, Dec. 30. M. Pichon, m the Chamber of Deputies, said: We have gone to Archangel and Siberia and cleared the transSiberian railway m order to preserve for ourselves the potential means of intervening at any moment. Intervention may be necessary m the countiy where the people of our nationality may be m danger. We landed troops at Odessa and Batonm, but this is intended to last only until the Rumanian armies shall be reconstructed. The Allies aim at preserving, tho wealthy portion of Russia against the Bolsheviki, but most strict orders have been given to the militai'y chiefs that an effort is necessary to crush Bolshevism and must be made by Russian forces there. Not a single man arriving from Russia, not even the most out-and-out ■ Socialist but who has not > warned me against the Bolshevik Government and urged me to isolate-.this scourge; and give [a peace that will allow Russia to continue. The existence. iof - a state of civil. war, with-, its present -hateful,*; abominable . Government, cannot ?be a peace of justice* We should be< constantly threatened with the resumption of hostilities.' • ' -
