ALLIES MAY The Only Alternative toWar,SaytheEnglish BY MILTON BRONNER | (CN, E, A. Special Cable.) LONDON, Jan. 26.—Altho not of y admitted, the lifting of the blockade against the Bolshevists means that the contro! of the soviet government thruout Russia and ; most of Siberia is recognized by the great powers. Behind the dictates of “humanity,” demanding that Rus- sian peasants be supplied with certain vital necessities, are the hard, cold facts of soviet triumph. It was a question of recognizing the new Russian gov- ernment or of fighting it to a finish. | And the war-weary peoples of western Europe are de-| cidedly in no mood to be hurled against a mighty nation with whom they have no quarrel. WAR-WEARY PEOPLES IN NO MOOD TO TAKE UP ARMS AGAINST SOVIETS France is passive, but worried by the turn of events be- fause such a large block of French capital is tied up in the Securities of the old Russian monarchy. There is nothing to do but to accept conditions with resignation, but French financiers would like to know how far the soviet regime will | go toward redeeming the debts contracted by the overthrown | Tulers of Russia. | Three mighty good reasons actuated the declaration of | Great Britain that de relationships “with the Russian | co-operative societi would be opened. First, the solid unwillingness of the people to engage in further military adventures. Second, the danger of Bolshevist propaganda spreading thru Persia, Afghanistan and India un- less a compromise is arrived at. Third, the pressing need of Russian food products to decrease the rising cost of living, and of raw materials from Russia for English industries. LLOYD ORGE BRAVES NORTHCLIFF’ DISPLEASURE BY RUSSIAN MOVE The Northcliffe press has bitterly assailed Lloyd George for shifting ground. Between Northcliffe and the premier | has been waged a contest of intuition and judgment in reck- oning the will of the British people. It is generally felt that in this latest move Lloyd George has played wisel He has public opinion with him. English publications have printed maps showing the facilities offered British commerce by the various Russian ports; Odessa for grain; Petrograd for tallow, hides and timber; Moscow for hemp and flax. The policy of ignoring the spreading power of the Soviet government was bringing nothing to Great Britain save em- barrassing complications. A parliamentary majority for ef- fective warfare against Bolshevism would be impossible to obtain. Such a campaign would mean calling out again the full man-power of Great Britain, and the people are in no temper for such a project unless their very homes were menaced by a foe. The Soviet armies threaten Poland, which is starving, and other infant republics, and sections in which there are oil fields, some of them already in the hands of the Bolshevists.

The medical profession itself is learning that many diseases begin in the mouth, and that obscure troubles which defy all medicine are often due to tooth decay that a competent dentist only can overcome. Theodore Roosevelt’s death, it is reported, was hastened because of bad tecth. A little more atten- tion to his teeth and a little less to public matters, and the great American might be with us yet. Registered Dentists using the E. R. Parker System are working in close harmony with this move for bet- ter health through better teeth. Every reader of this paper is invited to visit the office using this System and have thorough tooth ex- aminations made, there being no charge of any na- ture for counsel and advice. ; You can thus learn if your teeth are decaying, or if your system is being poisoned by unseen ulcers or | abscesses at the tooth roots.
