Dallas, Texas, Jan. 28.—Bolshevism
as practiced In Russia today is not a
political movement, but is a tyranny
of -blood and murder worse than any-
thing recorded in history, according to
Major George W. Simmons of St
Louis, in an address here -before the
Texas Hardware Dealers’ Association.
He spent several months in Siberia in
charge of. the work there* of the Amer-
ican Red Cross. ~ •
“Unless America is thoroughly awa-
kened to the perils of bolshevism and
to the part Germany is still playing
in an effort to wrest victory from de-
feat by grasping the trade of the world
through industrial disturbances,” Ma-
jor Simmons said, “this country may
soon be torn by conditions similar to
those Jn ‘Russia.
“Many good Americans in this coun-
try today are not alive to the connec-
tion between the agitation in America
and tliC bolsbevlst movement in Rus-
sia, just'as 1 $?a» unaware of the true
conditions until I returi!e^ from that
country," -Major Simmons continued
