The I r.vvst! ration was entirely In

of the- report of tho Investigators Is
that In Uurf!a today, under the
Soviet ?yKtm. "human labor Is the
property of the state."
The foi'owlni; roncIu?i"n rv.-is
reached l,y the In vest lira tors:
"liberty of labor In Itussia is only
a theory. "Workers, r.o matter what
their specialty may be be, are sub

thet 'vernment may de!re to ac

labor is" tho property of the state,
together with the idea of militariza
tion of labor, prem to be the Fallent
e harne-terL'tlc-t of the bolshevik or
ardzatlon of labor."
Th- initial labor legislation of the
Fovlct crovernnient. the report says,
apparently was all that the workers
mlKht des:r. It provided for an 8
hour day und a 4R hour week;
weekly rest period of at least 2-i

while the hours of work for all

according to the documents
in the. report, the nationali
of 3.000 factories or about
rent of the whole Industrial
productivity of Iiu.-sia. bcKinnlnsr
with a period of workers' control
followed by state control, was ac
companied by a ruinous falling off
of production. Although waes
prow beyond nil measure and Io.st
all relation of hurlneM expense and
production, they could not keep pace
with tho cost of living.
The report says that Trotzky ar
paretly believes that production
should he Ruaranted by compulsory
1 bor and says tliat until th people
become educated unlverral labor
r'rviee can only be accomplished by
oerion; that is to say. by the armed
forces of th? state. He proposes to
adapt military' methods to economic
production, thereby creating a sort
of territorial economic militia which
will be at the tame time a basis of
a war-time militia. According to
the report, Ienine in a speech de
livered the latter part of January
thbi vrar said:
"We must now adapt our war ap
paratus to new work." and later In
the sinm speech: "We must create
armies rf labor; we must concen
trate our forces on the labor front
with the niKXl'.ini of tension, with
a tnilv military' si irit of Implacable:
der is '.on." j
The report further says: j
"It M'cms that the pian of action .
elaborated by the povernnient con
templates two f's terns. The first
consists of the utilization of all man- j
power In the country which is dl-
ided into two cataarories, skilled j
and unskilled. They are utilized
through a process of registration,
mobilization and distribution. The
M'oonil system consists in the trans
formation of the Htjhtlnp army into
a labor army. Trotzky is president
of the rommif.Mi'n to which the task
of realizing till-- program is en
trUFted." The I'nitd States was rot rep
resented in this Investigation of

James Monroe.
boned boy of eighteen, and left
William and Mary's n liege to enter
the Iievolutien. Monroe remained in
the public service until 1S25. when
ho retired from the White House a
wrinkled, care bent. impoverished
old man. In those 4 3 years, he hail
been a minor military officer under
Washington: repeatedly a member
of the legislature, a member of the
Continental congress and of the na
tional senate; twice governor of Vir
ciria; minister to France. Fngland
and Spain: secretary of state and
war at the s-ime time and finally
president for two terms.
Without wealth or family In
fluence, with a slow, commonplace
mind, with no pifts as a speaker:
with a modest awkward presence
and plain, unpolished manners, this
very ordinary man plodded up the
ladder of ambition to its topmost
rune. How? Hy sheer force of his
rucked. courageous, industrlou.
honest loyal character a triumph
of the homely virtues.
Although b" f illed in some rf his
most important tafUs. Monroe's
failures were forplven because they
were honest mistakes. The ridicule
and tho disgrace brought upon him
by the most spectacular episode of
hU undramatic life would have bur
led forever a man more brilliant and
b-ss sincere.
This remarkable scene was l -acted
on the highly theatrical staue
of th national convention at Paris
directly after the vJcign of Terror
and the fall of Itobespierre. when
France was the outca.-; among na
tions. At that moment. Monroe ap
peared as the envoy of the only sis
ter republic a-d. to let all the world
see that the . volution had at least
one friend left on earth, the presi
dent of the convention melodram
atically folded the. rustic Virginian
in his arms.
After two years, he was recalled
for his zeal, und came home In a
rage of indignation. Passing by tho
ate of Mo'unt Vernon without pay
ing his respects to Washington, he
paid them Instead lr. ,"00 pages
which he published in defence o?
himself and in denunciation of the
administration.. Nevertheless, the
discredited diplomat was Bent to
Paris again by Pres't Jefferson In a
few years, when he came away cov
ered with success. and with 1 e
treaty for the purehasti of Louls.ana
under his arm by a fitting preluda
