BY F. A. MACKENZIE. Ty Radlo (n ‘The Star and the Chlfln Dally News. Copyright, 1084, MOBCOW, January 11.—Leon Trot- sky's iflness 1s a serious blow to in- surgent communists, making vietory for the machine more certain than ever. It was evident from the first that he was not fighting with his usual brilliance. Even his enemies may spare pity for the man whose amas- ing genius did more to sscure the triumpn of bolsheviem than any other, yet whom many bolshevists ever re. gard with strict scrutiny. He who by his oratory turned eme. mies into triends, he who by military skill defeated both the allies .na strong internal foes, he who, if . would have reconstructed yet is suspected, even by those sitting at the councfl table wllh him, as aping Napoleon. The gravity of Trotsky's iliness was evident last spring, and his appear- ance during the summer showed tha recovery was not complete. He ha been defeated during the past year, point after point, in the internal party councils. Fight! a painful illness, he struggled fiefeely, work- ing without cessation, reforming. de- yising new schemes and sesking to spread his hereditary Hebrew in- stincts for order, method and stren- uous toll_among the easy-going and slipshod Russian people. Vhatever is the outcome of the present situation, Trotsky's fame as the most brilliant and magnetic per- sonality the Russian revolution pro- duced is assured. Even defeat, |l it comes, will_not be without its oon- solation. The party machine can bring its cohorts and delegates from the provinces, but Trotsky can claim that youth and the fhiture are with him. " Among his supporters in the recent group elections were the most vital elements in the universities— Moscow workmen and various com- misslariats ilke foreign affairs. The army nllurl)ly supported him, for it worships him. ——— INQUIRY AT ANN ARBOR INVOLVES FOUR STUDENTS By the Assoclated Press.
