THE TRUTH ON RUSSIA
Bolsheviki Lied About, Declares
Senator Hiram Johnson.
Rsd Cross Officials Quoted to Repudi
ate "Sisson Articles"President
Wilson Kept In Ignorance of
Facts, California Senator
Avers.
Washington, D. CSenator Hiram
Johnson of California, in a speech in
the senate the other day, gave the lie
to Edward Sisson, author of the fa
mous "Sisson documents," exposing
German influence over the Russian so
viet republic, and read into the senate
record communications from officials
connected with the American Red
Cross in Russia absolutely refuting
statements made by Sisson.
The disclosures made by Senator
Johnson shocked the senate.
He read a telegram from Major
Thomas D. Thacher, formerly of the
American Red Cross organization
Russia, now returned to his law office
in New York.
The telegram gave information
about the first allied landing in North
ern Russia and reads in part as fol
lows:
"One company British marines,
about 130, landed at Murmansk,
March 5 or 6, (1918), pursuant to in
vitation by the Murmansk soviet, act
ing under telegraphic instructions
from Trotsky to accept all necessary
aid from the allies.
Salute Red Flag.
"From this time until my departure
March 22, the French, British and
American military authorities were in
daily cooperation and complete har
mony with the local soviet. Seven
teen guns were fired by the British
ship 'Glory' as a salute to the Russian
flag. Only flag visible was red flag.
Salute answered with same number
of guns from Russian cruiser 'Cbes-
mar.'
"Red Cross received effective and
invaluable assistance from soviet
authorities at Murmansk as well as
everywhere else in protection and
transportation of supplies."
Senator Johnson cited reports made
to him by Colonel Raymond Robbins,
who succeeded Major Thacher with
the Red Cross in Russia. He told how
the bolshevik! had had speeches of
President Wilson printed and distrib
uted free all over Russia.
Referring to Sisson and his inabil
ity to write intelligently about Russia.
Senator Johnson quoted Raymond Rob
bins as follows:
"Mr. Sisson fled from Petrograd on
the 4th of March, 1918, shouting that
the Germans would take the city with
in a few days in collusion with the
bolshevikl. The American Red Cross
was feeding starving children and
evacuating war supplies from Petro
grad under bolshevlst protection in
quantity until May 1, 1918.
"The allied military missions were
helping to train (he bolshevlst army
on April 1, and the American ambas
sador was seeking, with the consent
of (he silled embassies, the co-opera
tion of the American Railway mission
with the bolshevlst government, weeks
after Mr. Stsson had fled in terror
from PetroaTad.'*
Had "Beck Fever."
Mr. Robbins' communication further
related how Mr. Bollard and all of
the other members of th'e committee
on public information in Russia fled
from Moscow on May 5, reaching
Archangel with a bad* case of "buck
fever." These men, whose duty it was
to tell the truth about Russia found
"safety" on an English ice breaker
and remained on the vessel for weeks,
disguised as British soldiers, accord
ing to the Red Cross official. All this
time, the Rod Cross was doing busi

allied representatives were working
for their governments under the pro
tection of the bolsheviki. Colonel Rob
bins stated.
According to Mr. Robbins' state
ment, the American Red Cross did not
leave Moscow until October 5 and Pet
rograd until October 16, in the full
protection of the bolshevlst govern
ment, some seven months after Sisson
had fled in terror after reading "some
propaganda pamphlets and papers
which were the amusement and con
tempt of honest and informed men."
Senators questioning Senator John
son brought out the fact that some of
the last American Red Cross people
have Just recently come out of Russia.
Chamberlain of Oregon asked
whether Colonel Robbins had dis
cussed these facts with President Wil
son. Johnson replied that Robbins
had not. Further questions by Sena
tor La Follette established the fact
that Colonel Robbins had never been
permitted to lay the facts about Rus
sia before the president.
PEOPLE ARE BETRAYED
South Dakota Legislature Dodges
League Program.
Norbeck Machine to Refer Constitu
tional Amendments Back to Voters
AgainAnything to Stavs Off
Popular Government.
Pierre, S. D.Although the voters
of South Dakota at the last election
passed by an overwhelming majority
every one of the constitutional amend
ments necessary to put into operation
the economic program of the Nonparti
san league, the Republican machine
has announced its intention of refer
ring the amendments back to the peo
ple again.
By thus "passing the buck," the fol
lowers of Governor Norbeck hope to
save their self-respect and at the same
time stave off "an era of Townleyism,"
which they say is going to bankrupt
the sister state of North Dakota.
Tom Ayres, well known as a former
newspaper man in South Dakota and
private secretary to former Governor
Andy Lee, has been attending the ses
sions of the South Dakota legislature
as a special correspondent, and re
lates the following conversation he
had with a friend, who is close to
the Norbeck administration:
"Do you believe Governor Norbeck
is an honest man?" Ayres asked his
friend.
"Sure, he is honest," the friend re
plied. "But he Isn't a fool."
In the opinion of Ayres' friend. Gov
ernor Norbeck would be a fool to keep
his promises and put the Nonpartisan
league program into effect. Ayres, by
the way, is now an honest-to-goodness-
on-the-land-farmer and a member of
the Nonpartisan league. N
Ayres, in common with every other
Leaguer in South Dakota, is indignant
at the betrayal of the people by the
Norbeck machine.
The action, or lack of action, by the
legislature offers conclusive proof that
the Republican party waa insincere
when it stole the League program and
incorporated it In ttfe party platform.
SUBSTITUTES
A good way for the politicians
to suppress the organized farm
ers' political movement is to car.
ry outthe legislative program that
they are after. But that will not
be done. The interests will try to
substitute something that they
think the farmers should have,
not what they want.Millc Lacs

Entire State to Benefit From New
Grain Grades, State Terminal
Elevators, Flour Mills and Cen
tra! State Bank of North
Dakota.
Bismarck, N. D.~Experts like Dr.
E. F. Ladd and J. A. McGovern esti
mate that the new North Dakota
grain grades, state terminal elevators
and flour mills will save the farmers
of North Dakota at least $50,000,000
every year.
At the present time the farm lands
of this state are mortgaged for $309,
000,000. This staggering sum draws
interest at the average rate of 8.7 per
cent. Most of these mortgages are
held by Twin City trust companies.
That means North Dakota farmers are
paying out $20,883,000 every year in
interest charges alone.
Practically all bankers admit that
the new state bank will lower interest
charges. Every time the high Inter
est rate of this state is reduced 1 per
cent, its farmers save $3,090,000 every
year. If interest is lowered to 6 per
cent, which is by no means improba
ble, the annual saving to the farmers
alone will be $8,343,000 yearly.
The 700 state banks of Nortli Da
kota keep on an average of $25,000,-
000 deposits in the Minneapolis re
serve banks. They receive 2 per cent
interest on this money. They are
compelled to pay 6, 7 and even 8 per
cent for whatever amounts of their
own money they succeed in borrowing
back. This interest differential alone
costs North Dakota at least a million
dollars every year.
Statistics collected by private insur
ance companies show that state hail
insurance will save the farmers of
North Dakota between $4,000,000 and
$6,000,000 every year.
The law reducing freight rates and
establishing distance tariffs will save
all of the people of North Dakota at
least $12,000,000 a year.
OPPOSE MILITARY RULE
Minnesota Labor and Leaguers Units
Againat Home Guard Bills.
St. Paul, Minn.Organized labor is
up in arms against the proposed legis
lation establishing a motor corps,
home guard, provost guard and Negro
battalion as part of the Minnesota na
tional guard.
The labor men say the legislation is
backed by largo business interests in
order to crush organized labor. Non
partisan league farmers are also
against making Minnesota an armed
cam for experiences in the last two
election campaigns has shown that ths
home guards were responsible, many
cases, for causing mob outrages.
When the motor corps and home
guard bills were under discussion be
fore the house of representatives,
more than 1,000 laboring men stormed
the Capitol. They were not allowed
in the house chamber, but their pres
ence was felt and action on the meas
ures was postponed.
WORKERS PROMOTING BANK
Seattle Lsbor Attempting to Interest
Farmers in Project.
The central labor council of Seattle
is promoting the organization of a
banking institution to be known as the
Trades Union Savings and Loan asso
ciation. Its board of directors will
be composed of a member of each of
ths unions holding stock. An effort
is being made to interest the grange,
farmers' unions and other friendly or
ganizations in tho new venture.
This scheme of the Seattle laborites
is not a novelty. The Finnish work
ers in America, for instance, have for
years maintained a bank at Fitch
burg, Mass., which successfully finan
ces all enterprises of the Finnish
workers.
Minimum Wage for Women.
The Washington Industrial Welfare
commission has fixed $13.20 as the
minimum wage for any woman over
18 years of age who is engaged "In
any occupation, trade or Industry
throughout the state during the per
iod of the war." This order is based
upon recommendations made by a
War Emergency conference held la
August, 1918, and became effective is
November. The working women of
Washington are asking whether they
will now be expected to live on less
than $13.20. The war is ended but ths
cost of living is higher than ever.
Comparison of the activities of ths
North Dakota and Minnesota legisla
tures shows that the North Dakota
solons are working exactly twice as
hard as those in the Gopher state. In
the first 12" days, the North Dakota
legislature passed 10 bills, which were
signed by Governor Frasier. During
tbe same period, the governor of Min
nesota was able to sign only Ave bills.
Those words "loyalty" and "patriot
ism" are good words, but oh what
crimes were committed la their name
during tho recent election.La Snssr
